NRSG 1500 CHAPTER 6: HEALTH AND WELLNESS HEALTHY PEOPLE Initiative which provides evidence-based, 10-year national objective for promoting health and preventing disease Healthy People 2030 je Society in which all people live long, healthy lives Identifies leading health indicators which are high-priority health issues in the United States Examples? Promoting Health - Preventing Disease DEFINITION OF HEALTH A state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity (WHO, 1947, 2021a) What is health? Loading… State of being that people define in relation of their own values, personality, and lifestyle What influences health? Examples Nursing must consider the total person and their environment Finance- pythosocialgit- Past experenice education GeoGraphics - Culture/life style MODELS OF HEALTH AND ILLNESS Models help explain complex concepts, such as health and illness 1. Health Belief Model relationship between a person’s beliefs and behaviors 2. Health Promotion Model health is a positive, dynamic state; NOT merely the absence of disease 3. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs basic human needs are necessary for survival and health mind-body-Spirt 4. Holistic Health Model considers emotional, spiritual, social and cultural of physical wellness must important creativity MASLOW’S HIERARCHY OF NEEDS south personal & confidence status - Loading… Vistis Family precautions Fall PPE Wearing Vital Signs Pain Bo HEALTH & WELLNESS Health promotion helps individuals maintain or enhance present health nutrition, immunizations exercise , Health education helps people develop a greater understanding of their health, increases management of health risks Illness prevention protects people from actual or possible health threats about cultural Self Reflection - first thing to do 61. Box LEVELS OF PREVENTION Primary true prevention, goal is to reduce the incidence of annual wellness, education disease EXAMPLES: immunization g Nutrition : exercise , Secondary focuses on prevention the spread of disease, illness, or infection AFTER it has occurred EXAMPLES: screening - Tertiary disease is permanent, minimizing effects of disease and disability (think rehabilitation) EXAMPLES: renab, highest level of function, RISK FACTORS Risk factor anything that increases the vulnerability of an individual or group to illness or accident Genetics history , family Ethinancy Gender 1. Nonmodifiable can not Change-Age , , 2. Modifiable lifestyle practices and behaviors Examples: Smoking , exercise, nutrition , stress level , job 3. Environment where we live or work and surrounding conditions Examples: crowded city - coal mine - live or work NRSG 1500 Chapter 29: Vital Signs 29 2 Box. # GUIDELINES FOR MEASURING VITAL SIGNS Establishes a baseline for a patient!

ACUTE CARE FEBRILE PATIENTS Goals reduce heat production, increase heat loss, prevent complications Nursing Interventions identify bacterium Obtain cultures urine, sputum, blood as ordered - ALWAYS prior to starting antibiotics Reduce covering of patient without causing shivering Provide fluids to replace insensible loss Administer antipyretics - fever reducers Control environmental temperature (70-80F) Avoid these therapies tepid baths, cooling fans, ice packs to axillae and groin Reason Shiver cause increase in temp PULSE Palpable bounding of blood flow in a peripheral artery Indicator of circulatory status Electrical impulses originating from the sinoatrial (SA) node travel through the heart muscle to stimulate cardiac contraction Range: 60-100 bpm (Adult) ASSESSMENT OF PULSE Locations: Temporal Carotid - neck Apical BEST for any irregularity or abnormal recheck Brachial infants and children pinky Radial thumb most common UlnarRime-Allens test Femoral Gran Popliteal behind knee ankie Posterior Tibial by Dorsalis Pedis tor or foot Assessment of Pulse - Auscultate apical pulse - Bell (smaller circular piece) is used to heat low-pitched sounds- heart and vascular (low velocity blood movement) - Diaphragm (larger circular piece) is used to heat high-pitched sounds (high velocity movements, bowel, lung, heart) bell Brewry-with CHARACTER OF PULSE Rate regular If regular, count to 30 second x 2 = bpm strengh Apical noting rate and rhythm of S1 and S2, MUST do for complete minute Rhythm Regular interval occurs between each pulse or heartbeat Interrupted by early, late or missed beat = dysrhythmia Usually AFir Strength The volume and pressure of blood ejected against the arterial wall with each beat Grading: +4, bounding; +3, full/strong; +2 expected; +1 diminished; +0 absent dopler Equality PULSE RATE ABNORMALITIES Bradycardia Below HR < 60 beats/min Tachycardia Above HR > 100 beats/min Pulse Deficit Inefficient contraction of heart wave = failure of pulse wave to peripheral site How to assess?
