Right ventricular infarction and paramedic best practice

Right ventricular infarction and paramedic best practice

The post has three assignments

1:Right ventricular infarction and paramedic best practice

Task
The aim of this assignment is to deepen your learning about right ventricular infarction and its management by paramedics within the healthcare environment. My hope is that you get an idea of current controversies that the paramedic field is battling with, and learn to develop an understanding of how evidence is used to make (or sometimes not make!) guidelines. You will most likely see that no one service has exactly the right ‘recipe’ but there are many similarities, even between countries.

Part A (500 words)
Your first task is to study right ventricular infarction
Discuss right ventricular infarction in regards to pathopsyiology and identification.

Pathophysiology – Aetiology, signs and symptoms and risk factors
Diagnostic identification – Discuss the identification process of the disorder within the paramedic’s
environment. What ‘tools’ do we use and what challenges may make diagnosis difficult.

Part B (1000 words)
Discuss in detail the interventions available to paramedics that are used to manage and treat right ventricular infarction.
Look at the clinical procedures (or protocols) that states and territories use to manage this
complaint and discuss any differences that you may find. Compare this again to international paramedic best practice.
Why do you think there may be differences between countries or states?
Are these
big differences or small?
How are patients affected (or not)?
You may discuss in-hospital treatment within the continuum of care if this is relevant but don’t spend too much time on hospital treatment.

Your assignment should also examine best practice evidence to support or disclaim the use of these interventions. (Focus on prehospital care research and not in-hospital care for Part B)
Evidence can be found in emergency care journals, books and the internet.

2:Molecular Diagnostics

website for you can find an article” www.pubmed.com”. This article topic about
“ Molecular Diagnostics”

1. At the top of the page, place the author, title, etc. of the article. It should be written as you would reference a scientific article or paper. The general format is listed in the formats below. Authors should be listed as in the example below. Abbreviations of the journal title should be the standard abbreviation used for that journal.
Example:
Smith, J.E. A comparison of RAST and skin testing for allergies. J. Immunology., 1981; 72: 176-92.
In listing the authors, do not use names just initials. The authors should be listed in the order in which they appear on the title page of the article. Also do not include any degrees or titles of the authors.
2. A paragraph summary of the article in your own words. Do not paraphrase the abstract or author’s summary. The summary should include the major points that the author has proven

3. A paragraph critical analysis of the article with a statement whether you think that the author’s conclusions are valid. The following questions should be answered:
A. Was the study designed to address the study question(s)?
B. How were the study and control groups assigned?
C. Were the results of both the study and control groups valid?
D. Were there an adequate number of controls and study individuals?
E. Were the controls appropriate as to age, sex, race etc.?

4. If you are critiquing a review article, state whether or not the topic was adequately discussed. You should provide specific examples.

5. When writing this critique, DO NOT writes in the first person. Most scientific writing is done in the third person

Can you please make sure follow all the instructions? Please give a good essay :).
