Wk 3 – Summative Assessment: Critical Thinking

/in /by

Over the last few weeks, you have read and heard a lot about critical thinking, identified barriers to critical thinking in your life, assessed your communication style, and identified your stage of development as a critical thinker. You’ve accomplished quite a bit in this course so far.In the 1980’s, a popular cartoon series, G.I. Joe, ended every episode with a lesson concluding, “Now you know. And knowing is half the battle.” What you know is really important, but knowing isn’t enough.In this assignment, you’re going to consider the barriers to critical thinking again, and this time, you will figure out how you might overcome them. Overcoming barriers to critical thinking may not always be possible, but you should be able to use different strategies to reduce the barriers you face, and in that way reduce their impact on you. Thinking up strategies might sound intimidating at first, but you can think of it simply as “How can I think through this situation or problem?” As you become more adept at identifying barriers to your critical thinking, you’ll more easily apply a strategy to deal with them, and eventually, go through this process quickly.

9 minutes agoJennifer Moore-Fischer Main Post MooreFischer COLLAPSECognitive Behavioral Therapy is the recommended first line treatment of OCD, especially during pregnancy (Iniesta-Sepúlveda and Storch, 2017).  CBT is also the non pharmaceutical intervention of choice (Viswasam, Eslick, and Starcevic, 2019). And truly, if the risks of pharmaceutical nontreatment  versus benefits gained by pharmaceutical treatment are weighed and pharmaceutical nontreatment is risked, then CBT should be heavily encouraged to keep mother and baby as healthy as possible during the pregnancy (Viswasam, Eslick, and Starcevic, 2019).With the exception of paroxetine, SSRIs (Such as fluoxetine and sertraline) are the drugs of choice to treat Obsessive Compulsive Disorder in pregnancy, though they are secreted in small (considered relatively safe) amounts in breastmilk during breastfeeding (Bharadwaj et al., 2022). Paroxetine is of increased risk and should be avoided in favor of lower risk alternative SSRIs as previously listed (Burton et al, 2022).Escitalopram (Lexapro) can be prescribed off label to treat OCD during pregnancy if fluoxetine and sertraline etc fail to relieve symptoms or cause significant side effects that fail their trial (Peggy, Cummings, and Mark, 2017). It should also be noted that Buspar is actually a category B drug for pregnancy use risk (Bharadwaj et al., 2022).The risk assessment tool I woulod use during pregnancy for women struggling with OCD is the Perinatal Anxiety Screening Scale. The PASS screening can be used after a GAD7 indicates moderate to high anxiety, in the categories of: “… acute anxiety and adjustment, general worry and specific fears, perfectionism, control and trauma, and social anxiety” (Bharadwaj et al., 2022).   Potential side effects of SSRIs include dry mouth, insomnia, blurred vision, drowsiness, nausea, dizziness, nervousness, headaches, reduced libido, blurred vision (Bharadwaj et al., 2022).The APA does publish regularly updated treatment guidelines for the assessment and treatment of OCD. They recommend use of CBT and SSRIs for appropriate ytreatment of OCD  (Viswasam, Eslick, and Starcevic, 2019).ReferencesAmerican Psychiatric Association (APA). (2013).

Discussion reply

How can we identify health risks, strengths, and needs in our comprehensive health assessment?When conducting a comprehensive health assessment, it provides you with a snapshot of the patient’s health status and the health risk of empaneled patients. For example, the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA). Stensvik et al. (2022) noted that “CGA is performed at varying levels of intensity in different settings; accordingly, its content may vary with healthcare settings” (p. 2). In addition, a comprehensive health assessment identifies health problems that could be treated properly for better health outcomes. Due to specialties in healthcare each specialty has a systemic evaluation of the older adult/adult/adolescent/child/infant, accompanied by an individual care plan. These specific care plans provide the patients’ goals of care, who is responsible for obtaining these goals, and an obtainable/realistic timeline to achieve these goals/outcomes. Health assessment is a process involving systematic collection and analysis of health-related information on patients for use by patients, clinicians, and health care teams to identify and support beneficial health behaviors and mutually work to direct changes in potentially harmful health behaviors. In addition, comprehensive health assessments provide insight on health risk integrated with health education programs. Stensvik et al. (2022) noted that “The CC-approach promotes a person-centered care perspective since it involves individualized interventions aiming at assessing unmet needs and health problems, thereby the potential to modifying NPS” (p. 2). In relation to the CC-approach as future providers we need to continue to effectively use comprehensive health assessments. This is evident by reviewing feedback and follow-up support for patients.Give two examples with rationale for each.As I stated, the utilization of CC (Case-conferencing) is a beneficial way to identify health risk, strengths and needs in a comprehensive assessment. Stensvik et al. (2022) noted that “Regular CC-meetings enable the staff to communicate in a structured, systematic, and goal-oriented way, and thereby establish a common thought-through understanding of each case” (p. 2). Another example is to understand what your patients expect out of their comprehensive health assessment. When conducting a comprehensive helth assessment patients want a place where it is safe, and their voices are heard when they state their health concerns that are most important to them. In addition, being able to sit and genuinely listen to your patient’s priorities can help further establish an agenda that will essentially provide a more efficient visit and long-tern plan of care for the patient. Both examples will facilitate patients to engage in their own health and healthcare. As a result, it will lead to improved health choices and behaviors in a prolonged period.
