...policy and practice in the history of education. Bloom’s research directed the advancement of many educational programs and provided tools for educator to help students learn. His research on education was conducted from 1940 to 1959 and focused on the relationships between methods of instruction, educational outcomes and measurement of those outcomes. Bloom’s wrote his first book in 1950 which led to the work , the “Taxonomy of Educational Objectives.” His most distinguished contribution to teaching and learning was developing a theory for teachers to provide correct instruction for their students. The revised Bloom’s Taxonomy is used as a framework for continuing education . The purpose of continuing education is to improve nurses’ skills to provide quality patient care. Nurses need to transfer her knowledge from continuing education to everyday practice. Educators can aid the process or transferring knowledge but not to acquire instructional outline. The revised Bloom’s taxonomy incorporates instructional outline into the taxonomy plan to support transfer of knowledge and helps educators to create correct instruction. The application of the research conducted on Bloom’s taxonomy on nursing education provides guidelines to teach , organize lesson plan, assess the strategies in teaching and to evaluate the strategies of teaching. The application of the research is also used to create learning objectives and instructional...

...Epidemiology Paper According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Health Statistics, "[By 1993] death certificates listed diabetes as the fifth leading cause of death for Blacks aged 45 to 64, and the third leading cause of death for those aged 65 and older in 1990” (Bailey, 2007, p. 1). These statistics show how serious the problem of diabetes has become in the black community. Epidemiological studies can focus the efforts of the healthcare community to effective interventions aimed at lowering the prevalence and incidence of diabetes among African Americans. Epidemiology Paper Roles This paper will explore the role of epidemiology in the surveillance of the incidence of diabetes in the morbidity and mortality of Americans of African descent. This paper will also discuss the definition and purpose of epidemiology, epidemiological methods, the epidemiological triangle and levels of prevention that is related with diabetes in the African American community. Definition and purpose of epidemiology in epidemiology paper The definition of epidemiology is very important if one is to use the definition to describe its purpose. “A common definition of epidemiology is the study of the distribution and determinants of disease frequency in human populations” (Savitz, Poole, & Miller, 1999, p. 1159). A better description of epidemiology is the analysis of the incidence and spread of disease within populations, with the aim of establishing...

...Diabetes Disease Management Organizational Change Plan Diabetes Disease Management Organizational Change Plan Diabetes is a chronic disease in the United States and is reaching epidemic proportions. Private health care organizations have incorporated disease management programs to assist insured members in managing diabetes care and treatment. In an effort to contain cost, disease management programs employ nurses, dieticians, and physicians to provide diabetic education, resources, and incentive programs as a collaborative effort to assist members with this chronic disease (Edwards, 1999). The United States Department of Health and Human Services estimates that 25.8 million individuals of all ages have been diagnosed with diabetes. This chronic disease is the seventh leading cause of death. Medical treatment for a diabetic is twice as high as it is for a non-diabetic patient. The United States Department of Health and Human Services estimated that in 2007 medical treatment for diabetics cost $174 billion dollars (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2011). This paper will provide documentation of a declining disease management program and the development of a change within the organizational program. The goal of the change will provide patient, physician, nurse collaboration, diabetic education, and, assistance with self-management to close gaps in care (Amundson, O'Connor, Solberg, Asche, Woods, Parker, & Crain, 2009). Mercy Care Management is...

...burden of diabetes is due to its chronic complications leading to increased morbidity and mortality. The unique combination of various risk factors necessitates research studies to make appropriate risk assessment tools to control this diabetes pandemic. Better understanding of aetio-pathological genetic and environmental factors are suggesting prevention should begin much before the start of disease process and interventions in high-risk subjects alone will not be sufficient. It is necessary to initiate population based programmes for primary prevention of diabetes including a range of activities targeted at different age groups from fetal life to old age. Synchronized and coordinated efforts from public and private sectors are needed to combat this mammoth health and economic issue. Key words: Diabetes, Pakistan, Introduction: Escalation in rates of diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes in Pakistan is posing threats to the economy and quality of life of people due to poor glycemic control and very high rates of complications (1-6). Cost of care is estimated to be very high. Resource constraints society, lack of medical reimbursement and insufficient allocation of health budget are barriers to quality care. Most often the patient is unable to afford the high cost of treatment (7-9). This review was conducted to study research evidence...

...Introduction Food Intake I was born to a father with the history of Diabetic mellitus and on my mother’s side; there is a history of High Blood Pressure. Although my father is not diabetic, my mother has been diagnosed with blood pressure. Blood pressure has been a steady disease in my household which has affected four out my five uncles. In 2010, after a seven year long battle with infertility, I was diagnosed with High Blood Pressure which I was given medication for and shortly thereafter, I had a son after my aggressive treatment. Ever since, I have always link most diseases with food intake and I strongly believe that my nutrition and my health work hand in hand. According to Grodner, Roth &Walkingshaw (2012), “The presence in the American diet of too much fat is directly related to several chronic diseases such as CAD and certain types of cancer. High-fat diets are indirectly related to type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension” (p.110). In order for me to remain in good health and to eliminate my disease, my daily food intake calorie should go to 2200 meal plan which includes breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner according to the super tracker web site . The purpose of this paper is to teach me how to eat healthy and to accomplish my goal of maintaining a healthy eating habit which includes an excellent food intake . Analyzing the First Two Weeks Being a foreigner, I have always thought that I eat healthy and having gone the to the doctors for...

...Approximately 17 million Americans have diabetes.(Lamb) As many as one-half are unaware they have it. This chronic disease causes serious health complications including renal failure, heart disease, stroke, and blindness. It is a condition in which the pancreas no longer produces enough insulin or cells stop responding to the insulin that is produced. Then glucose in the blood is not able to be absorbed into the cells of the body.(Kishore) The cells in the human body need energy in order to function. Glucose is the body's primary energy source. It is a simple sugar resulting from the digestion of foods containing carbohydrates. It circulates in the blood from the foods that are digested as a ready energy source for any cells that need it. Insulin is a hormone or chemical produced by cells in the pancreas, it is located behind the stomach. It bonds to a receptor site on the outside of cell and goes into the cell through which glucose can enter. Glucose can be saved for later use by converting to concentrated energy sources like glycogen or fatty acids. When there is not enough insulin produced , glucose stays in the blood rather entering the cells. The body will attempt to dilute the high level of glucose in the blood, which called hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia acts by drawing water out of the cells and into the bloodstream, to dilute the sugar and excrete it in the urine. People with undiagnosed diabetes to be constantly thirsty, drink large quantities of water, and urinate...

...Prevention Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in the United States (Murea, Ma, & Freedman, 2012). The prevalence has been rising every decade. In fact, it is predicted that type 2 diabetes will reach to 552 million people by 2030 (Murea, Ma, & Freedman, 2012). Type 2 diabetes accounts for 90% of all diabetic cases. People with diabetes have a 25-75% high risk of death associated with cancer, infection, liver disease, lung disease, and falls (Murea, Ma, & Freedman, 2012). Type 2 diabetes is characterized by high blood sugar, impairment in insulin secretion, and insulin resistance (McCulloch & Roberston, 2017). According to McCulloch and Robertson (2017), our ability to prevent this type of diabetes in the...

...Retrieved May 17, 2012, from MEDLINE database. 20953579 Background Information Exercise and physical activity has shown to be a significant factor in the management and treatment of diabetes. What is unknown is how benefits from physical activity directly correlate to glucose control as manifested in low glucosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in diabetic people. The study aims to prove that the decrease in HbA1c is a result of greater aerobic fitness and strength in patients that are performing aerobic or anaerobic exercise. Secondly, it is related to the changes in strength and aerobic fitness that are performing cardiovascular exercise and resistance training. Review of Literature The purpose of the article is to assess the correlation of reduced HbA1c to physical activity. It is hypothesized that this reduction is related to the changes and increase in aerobic fitness and strength in diabetic people who are engaged in aerobic and anaerobic exercise. The result from the study showed that the link between the changes in glucose control during exercise training is not that high nevertheless; physical activity offers health benefits to diabetic patients. Methodology The study used experimental method by randomized controlled trial. Random sampling of 251 patients between 39-70 years old with type 2 diabetes mellitus that were previously sedentary was allocated aerobic, resistance, or aerobic plus resistance, or to a control group that was sedentary. The participants were evaluated...

...“How to Give Your Body the Nutrition it needs” Process Essay Tiffany Vogt Rasmussen College Author Note This paper is being submitted on November 9th, 2014 for Professor Branch’s G124/ENC101 Section 16 English Composition course. By fulfilling the nutritional requirements your body needs, it can increase your daily energy levels and overall well-being. Maintaining a well-balanced diet is much more critical for your health than many may think, what you eat now could potentially affect your health later down the road. “The benefits of good nutrition can be found in physical and mental health because a healthy diet provides energy, promotes good sleep, and gives the body what it needs to stay healthy.” (Medical Online, 2013). There are a few key elements that are needed in order to specifically know the nutrients needed for your own body. Daily nutritional values can vary upon every person due to many different factors such as; body weight, height, daily activity level, or chronic illnesses. A person who runs 3 miles a day and is diabetic will have a much different nutritional needs than a person who is overweight and does perform much physical activity. It is important to keep factors such as these in mind when reviewing your nutritional needs. Due to so many different factors playing roles in specifying a person’s nutritional needs, there are free websites that are capable of helping with the process. One of the sites I’ve found very helpful is one that has been created...

...diabetes (adult onset diabetes). Both types of diabetes exhibit similar symptoms or no symptoms at all. In this paper, we report the incidence of diabetes, typical signs and effect diabetes has on the body, teaching requirements and psycho-social challenges that go along with the disease. Diabetes mellitus affects about 17 million people, 5.9 million are undiagnosed. In the United States, approximately 800,000 new cases of diabetes are diagnosed yearly (Bare, 2006). Among working adults diabetes is the leading cause of non-traumatic amputations, blindness and end-stage renal disease. Diabetes is the third leading cause of death by disease, primarily because of the high rate of cardiovascular disease (Bare, 2006). Hospitalization rates for people with diabetes are 2.4 times greater for adults and 5.3 times greater for children than for the general population. Among adults in the United States, diagnosed cases of diabetes increased 49% from 1990 to 2000, and similar increases are expected to continue (Bare, 2006). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 5% to 10% of people with diabetes have type 1, which the insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells are destroyed by an autoimmune process. As a result, they produce little or no insulin and require insulin injections to control their blood glucose levels. Approximately 90% to 95% of diabetics have type 2, which results from decreased sensitivity to insulin and impaired beta cell functioning resulting...

...Diabetes Mellitus Quiz (Paper) Metformin is a good oral glycemic agent used for treatment of DM and new research from the US Diabetes Prevention Program ( DPP) shows that it can aid in delaying the onset of the disease when used in patients who are at high risk. Some of the high risk patients include those that are overweight or obese, have a family history, had gestational diabetes or are African American. The study uses 3 groups of people, a placebo group, a intensive lifestyle group and a metformin group. Appoximitely 3000 people have been used in this study and 85% of the original group study continued on in further studies. Approimitely 45% of the group were minorities ethnic backgrounds. Diabetis Mellitis (DM) is becoming more and more prevelant in our society. This article is about ways of helpng those at high risk of developing DM to reduce their risk of getting it or delay the onset. The main component of the article is the use of metformon to delay or reduce the risk of onset of DM. Research has shown that the use of metformin in those that are high risk for getting DM may delay the onset for as long as 15 years. If the patient takes metformin and increases their exercise and diet regimines then the chances of delaying the onset are even greater. Although intensive lifestyle changes still have the best chance for delaying the onset of DM, in the future Metformin may be used to delay the onset as well as for treatment of Diabetes. Did the article contain any additional...

...Diabetes [Name of Author] [Name of Institution] Introduction The examination profile of Mr Ward is not satisfactory and predicts he is confronted with several risk factors. Triglyceride level of Mr. Ward is 1.8mmol/l which is considered to be borderline high. Likewise, the cholesterol is 5.2mmol/l which again is very high. He also has a blood pressure higher than a safe range and a BMI below satisfactory level. This paper aims to highlight the facts and interventions which can be used for disease management for Mr Ward. Discussion The major challenge for maintaining a suitable glycemic control for diabetic patients is to restrict the progression of disease or development of the risk factors which turn pertinent over the course of time. The progression of disease can be restricted through considering the factors leading to weight gain, the pharmaceutical considerations, incurrence of glycemic conditions, and by taking into account the inherent restraints for administering exogenous insulin (Nichols et al, 2000). According to Davies (2004), there are number of factors which influences the consultation for diabetes patients amongst which the prominent ones include age, span of diabetes, the BMI, and measure of physical exercise. The glycaemic control remains the first and foremost target for every healthcare provider to enable insulin uptake in patients suffering from type 2 diabetes. Janes et al (2013) have highlighted the significance of daily routine and activities...
