Kаren is studying the relаtiоnship between the time spent exercising per dаy and the time spent оutside per day and has cоllected the data shown in the table. The line of best fit for the data is y^{"version":"1.1","math":"y^"}= 0.28x+40. Assume the line of best fit is significant and there is a strong linear relationship between the variables. Exercising (Minutes) Time Spent Outside (Minutes) 30 45 60 65 90 60 120 75 According to the line of best fit, the predicted number of minutes spent outside for someone who spent 25 minutes exercising is 47. Is it reasonable to use this line of best fit to make the above prediction? Select the correct answer below:

On further questioning she tells you there is no pain in her chest that she notices but she does have a numb and tingling sensation in her left arm sometimes but not every time. Past Medical History.Essential Hypertension, Osteoarthritis, sciatica and spinal stenosis Allergies PenicillinMedications Ramipril 5mg once daily Simvastatin 10mg nocte Paracetamol 1g up to four times daily Tramadol 50 mg up to four times daily. Social SituationAudrey lives with her husband Bill and is a part time home carer. She enjoys her job but has had to take some sick days when her pain has been particularly bad. Her employer has been supportive and have now altered her client case load to reduce the physical lifting work required. She has never smoked and drinks on special occasions only. Her appetite is good and her diet is varied. When asked about her fluid intake she tells you she doesn’t really like water but she does drink 10-12 cups of coffee each day. Audrey is generally very active, fell walking at least monthly with her husband Bill although more recently this has been difficult due to back pain.

Routine observations Blood pressure 150/87 Heart rate 147Oxygen Saturations 98% room airRespiratory rate 18Temperature 37.1 Standard bloodwork was taken as part of the assessment relating to the surgery required Full Blood Count, Urea &Electrolytes, Coagulation screen, Group and Save and an MRSA screen has been completed as pre protocol. ECG shows atrial fibrillation, uncontrolled rate (147bpm) After discussing with the consultant anesthetist, it was decided Audrey should be admitted for heart rate control, she should be commenced on an anticoagulant and beta blocker, should have an ECHO arranged and surgery should be postponed until her heart rate is controlled. Audrey will also need to re-attend pre assessment prior to rescheduled surgery as she will require specific guidance on medication management preoperatively. Scenario one questions 1) Discuss the normal structure and function of the hearts electrical system and describe what changes may have happened to cause Audrey’s atrial fibrillation (10 marks)2) Describe the mechanism of action of each of the two drugs Audrey has been prescribed and what the anesthetist is hoping they will achieve for her. (10 marks)3) Identify one potential risk that will impact on Audrey following the cancellation of her surgery and how can you as the preassessment nurse take action to reduce or prevent this risk from occurring. Ensure you include the evidence base for your intervention/recommendation as well as rationale for your decision. (10 marks)4) Describe a current health promotion initiative could patients with cardiovascular problems engage with to help moderate risk of long term problems and illustrate the benefits of this initiative to both patient and health service.

A year ago Surranah cooked when the family got together regularly but since she has become unwell these times of contact have dwindled. Provided a summary of the altered physiology of a patient with COPD. Your answer should include the impact on the normal respiratory function as well as an explanation of symptoms a patient might experience and why and the risk factors for developing this condition. (10 marks) From the scenario identify 5 care needs Surranah might have and explain what impact these might have on her considering physical, emotional, psychological where appropriate. (10 marks) Chose one of the care needs you have identified and create a nursing plan of care including SMART goals and provide rationale to support your plan and interventions (10 marks) Discuss the impact of chronic lung disease on the family unit and the NHS in respect of capacity and budget. What current public health initiatives are that aim to tackle this issue? (10 marks)
