摘要:

AbstractMusculoskeletal misuse syndromes are secondary to misuse of specific tendons, ligaments, or other soft tissues. Despite patient education interventions to prevent acute musculoskeletal injury, these injuries still occur. A well‐organized approach to musculoskeletal complaints can reduce the risk of missed diagnoses and ensure appropriate care. This article reviews history and physical examination findings indicative of a misuse etiology and provides clinicians with a discussion of available diagnostic tests and therapies.

摘要:

AbstractBecause sexual assault survivors often seek treatment in primary care settings, clinicians must be prepared to evaluate these patients in a nonjudgmental manner. The initial evaluation includes a medical and assault history. During the physical examination, physical injuries are noted and forensic evidence is collected. Treatment includes prophylaxis for pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections and counseling referrals. This article focuses on care of the adult female sexual assault survivor. Psychosocial support, physical examination, collection of evidence, treatment, and documentation are discussed.

摘要:

AbstractDepression continues to be seriously underdiagnosed and undertreated in primary care settings. Many studies have observed antidepressant prescribing practices of nonpsychiatric physicians to discover why inadequate depression detection and treatment is pervasive. This article describes the first large, randomized study to investigate the antidepressant prescribing practices of NPs. This quantitative, descriptive study sought to determine the factors NPs consider when choosing an antidepressant, antidepressant prescribing frequency by NPs, types of antidepressants prescribed by NPs, and health problems that NPs are treating with antidepressants. The study's findings indicate that NPs should adhere more closely to established practice guidelines.
