    Study Notes

    General Information

    • This document contains study notes for a nursing exam.
    • The content covers various topics related to complex health alterations.
    • The notes include questions, answers, diagnoses, interventions, and teaching points for each topic.
    • The exam appears to be for an Associate Degree Nursing program.

    End-of-Life Care

    • Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS): Insufficient blood flow deprives cells of oxygen, inducing acidosis, hyperkalemia, and tissue ischemia. This leads to the release of toxic metabolites, causing further cell damage and hypoxia.
    • Good vs. bad death: A good death prioritizes relief from suffering for the patient, family, and caregivers while respecting patient/family wishes. A bad death involves pain, unmet wishes, isolation, and fear.
    • End-of-life goals: Identifying patient needs, managing symptoms, promoting meaningful interactions between the patient and loved ones, and facilitating a peaceful passing.
    • Palliative Care: A compassionate and supportive approach for patients and families nearing the end of life, not hastening or postponing death. It involves an interdisciplinary team and other medical treatments may also be used.
    • Hospice Care: An interdisciplinary approach aiming for good quality of life and a peaceful death for terminally ill individuals. Comfort care is prioritized.
    • End-of-life clinical manifestations: Include changes in the neurosensory system (communication issues, decreased LOC, visual/hearing changes), cardiovascular system (decreased BP, heart rate, and respiratory rate, temperature regulation issues), Gl system (constipation, anorexia, nausea/ vomiting), GU system (decreased urinary output, incontinence), pain management, and respiratory changes.
    • End-of-Life Psychosocial Support: Focuses on client/family emotional and spiritual needs. Includes being realistic, encouraging reminiscence, and providing referrals to bereavement specialists.

    Musculoskeletal Disorders

    • Osteoporosis vs. osteopenia: Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disease characterized by reduced bone density and increased risk of fractures. Osteopenia is characterized by low bone mass, a precursor to osteoporosis.
    • Affected sites: Primary sites include the wrist, hip, and vertebral column.
    • Osteoporosis classifications: Primary osteoporosis commonly occurs in postmenopausal women and men over 70. Secondary osteoporosis results from associated medical conditions or long-term drug therapy/immobility.
    • Prevention teaching: Adequate calcium intake, avoiding a sedentary lifestyle, daily weight-bearing exercise, limiting alcohol, and quitting smoking.
    • Osteoporosis assessment: Physical assessment includes posture inspection, checking for kyphosis, observing for loss of height, pain with movement, and restricted movement.
    • Osteoporosis diagnosis: Assessment of bone mineral density (BMD) using DEXA, QCT, or QUS.
    • Osteoporosis treatment: Medications like bisphosphonates (alendronate, risedronate), calcitonin, RANKL inhibitors, and parathyroid hormones. Dietary recommendations (calcium, vitamin D, protein) and exercise are crucial.

    Osteomalacia

    • Definition: Softening of bone tissue due to inadequate calcium and phosphorus mineralization.
    • Risk Factors: Malnutrition, poor diets, vitamin D deficiency

    Paget's Disease

    • Definition: Metabolic disorder where bone is excessively broken down and reformed.
    • Affected sites: Skull, spine, pelvis, femur, tibia.
    • Clinical manifestations: Bone pain, bowing of long bones, spinal curve changes, enlarged skull, and pathologic fractures.
    • Interventions: Aspirin, NSAIDs, calcitonin, bisphosphonates, mithramycin, and physical therapy.

    Osteomyelitis

    • Definition: Bone infection caused by pathogenic microorganisms.
    • Types: Exogenous (external source), endogenous (from bloodstream), contiguous (spread from nearby infection).
    • Acute vs. chronic manifestations: Fever, erythema, swelling, tenderness, localized pain (acute). Localized pain, drainage, sinus tract, ulceration (chronic).
    • Interventions: Antibiotics, pain control, wound care, and surgical management (sequesrectomy, bone grafts).

    Bone Tumors

    • Types: Osteochondroma, Chondroma, Osteoid Osteoma, Osteoblastoma, Giant Cell Tumor, Ewing's Sarcoma, Osteosarcoma, Chondrosarcoma.
    • Assessments: Pain, swelling, masses, warmth, and neurological/functional assessments.
    • Interventions: Pain control, non-surgical and surgical treatments such as curettage and joint repair.

    Hand and Foot Disorders

    • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Median nerve compression in the wrist, causing pain and numbness.
    • Dupuytren's Contracture: Palmar fascia thickening causing flexion contracture of the fingers.
    • Morton's Neuroma: Digital nerve tumor causing pain and burning sensations.

    Pediatric Disorders

    • X-linked disorders: Genetic inheritance via the X chromosome, commonly affecting males. Examples include Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies.
    • Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Early onset, rapid progression, leading to loss of ambulation and death in the mid-20s due to cardiac and respiratory failure.
    • Becker Muscular Dystrophy: Slower progression, maintaining ambulation longer.
    • Scoliosis: Lateral curvature of the spine. Differentiation from Lordosis (concave curvature) and Kyphosis (front-to-back curvature).

    Musculoskeletal Trauma

    • Fracture classifications: Complete, incomplete, open (compound), closed (simple), displaced, non-displaced, pathologic, stress, compression.
    • Assessment findings: Changes in bone alignment, altered extremity length/shape, pain with movement, numbness/tingling, decreased ROM.
    • Bone healing stages: Hematoma formation, granulation tissue, callus formation, osteoblastic proliferation, bone remodeling.
    • ORIF vs. external fixation: ORIF (open reduction internal fixation) involves surgery with plates/screws, while external fixation applies external devices for traction, casting, or bracing.

    Amputations

    • Complications: Hemorrhage, infection, phantom limb pain, immobility or activity limitations, neuroma formation, and flexion contracture.

    Acute Compartment Syndrome

    • Cause: Increased pressure within a muscle compartment, reducing circulation.
    • Clinical manifestations: Sensory/motor deficits, pain, pallor, pulses, edema.
    • Emergency care: Rapid diagnosis and fasciotomy to relieve pressure within the affected compartment.

    Crush Syndrome

    • Cause: Multiple compartment injury leading to edema and reduced tissue perfusion.
    • Complications: Hypovolemia, hyperkalemia, rhabdomyolysis (muscle breakdown) leading to acute tubular necrosis.
