摘要:
Osteoporosis is an age-related process that affects one out of every four women above 65 years of age. This article focuses on the assessment of osteoporosis through use of an osteoporosis assessment tool that is filled out by the client. The tool requests information about the woman's demographic profile, chief complaint, related symptoms, pain profile, risk profile, past medical history, nutritional history, fitness profile, menopausal history and self-care practices. The tool also includes information for the health care provider to complete about the client's lab analysis. Assessment needs to be extensive in order to uncover the specific factors that place an individual at risk for the silent changes of osteoporosis. The health care provider can elicit the aid of the client in securing such a comprehensive assessment.

摘要:
Survivors of suicide are people who are coping with the loss of a loved one through an act of suicide. Primary health care providers are well-positioned to identify and intervene with this population, which is known to be at high risk for health disturbances. A research study was conducted to further clinicians' understanding of the experiences and needs of survivors. The major research question was, “What do adult survivors report about their perceived life experiences three to nine months after the suicide of a family member?” Data from audiotaped interviews with 35 adult survivors of suicide were analyzed to determine a description of the experiences and needs of this population. A recurrent theme discovered in the lives of survivors was the persistence of agonizing, unanswerable questions related to the death. Surviving family members struggled with why the suicide had occurred and worried about the impact of the death on themselves and others. Profound changes in the emotional, cognitive, physical and social functioning of survivors were also evident. Implications for clinical practice are discussed.

摘要:
Nurse practitioners and other clinicians use laboratory studies and ancillary tests to confirm or rule out suspected conditions. Deciding which tests to use and interpreting results are essential to the practice of high-quality, cost-effective primary care. A working knowledge of test characteristics and performance facilitates these decisions. This article illustrates how a conceptual understanding of sensitivity, specificity and predictive value applies to daily practice. In addition, the article explains how to evaluate the quality and relevance of literature that reports test performance. While discussion focuses on laboratory tests, the same principles may be applied to the history and physical examination, and to other types of diagnostic data.
