Case Study

A 41-year-old male patient presents at the community walk-in clinic with complaints of severe elbow pain radiating into the forearm. His 13-year-old daughter is serving as a translator because her father is unable to speak English and understands only a few words in English. The daughter explains that he has been taking Tylenol to manage pain, but the pain is getting worse and is keeping him from working. You ask the daughter to describe the type of work her father does, and you notice she is hesitant to respond, first checking with her father. He responds, and she translates that he works in construction. Based on the response and the apparent concern, you suspect that the patient may be an undocumented worker. Further conversation reveals that several members of the family are working with the same local construction company.

Case Questions

You suspect the pain reported as coming from the elbow and radiating down the forearm is caused by repetitive motions, perhaps indicating lateral epicondylitis. What can you do to confirm this diagnosis?
While performing the physical examination, you ask the patient, through his daughter, if he has reported this injury to his employer, because the injury is most likely work-related. The daughter responded without consulting her father that this is an old injury that happened before he started working at his current place of employment. You could tell that she was becoming more distressed. What is the most likely explanation for her concern?
Visual inspection reveals erythema around the affected area with no evidence of overlying skin lesions, scars, or deformities. What other assessments should you perform?
How is lateral epicondylitis treated?
When discussing possible treatment approaches, you notice that the patient is very worried and seems to suggest to his daughter that they should leave. The daughter begins trying to explain why they have to leave right away. What would you tell the patient and his daughter to help them feel comfortable staying for treatment?

As your required text suggests, research is not only for those in academia. It is often a crucial consideration in leadership positions throughout organizations.

In this discussion, consider the organization you currently work for, or desire to work for, and imagine you are a leader in this organization. Consider scenarios that could potentially arise where utilizing research could be beneficial. Examples might be excessive tardiness, reduced production, low morale, and significant loss of customer base. You may use any example with the exception of those listed above.

For your initial post,

  • Identify an organization in your location that complements the knowledge and skills you have developed during your program. (May be hypothetical.)
  • Identify a leadership role that you would enjoy having within this organization. If you are not interested in a career, identify something that you think would be rewarding if you were advancing your career.
  • Identify the following in association with this organization and position:
    • Research question: What is happening in the organization that could be researched?
    • Hypothesis: State why you believe it is happening.
    • What dependent variables/factors do you believe may be affecting your chosen scenario (i.e., age, workload, work shift, ineffective communications)?
      • What type of factor did you identify (i.e., nominal, ordinal, interval, or ratio)?
    • Are there any potential extraneous variables? Why or why not. If so please list two to three.
    • Method: What method would best reflect an accurate analysis of the situation (e.g., quasi-experimental or phenomenology, etc.)? Include your rationale.
  • Lastly, discuss how an understanding of the basics of research and statistics can help a person in decision making, whether in an organization, or even in a social situation.

Discussion posts should equate to approximately 350 to 400 words.

 Instructions:  Develop an essay introducing yourself.  Your contents should included your college major, interest in music, any musical experiences as well as future musical aspirations.  Include the ways that music affects you and your environment.  Discuss how music has affected our society both positively and negatively.  Include your favorite music types/styles.  This assignment should be done in a word program 

Everyone in the group should present one or two pieces of popular media that you enjoy. This could be a favorite tv show, book, magazine, vlog, blog, podcast, movie, graphic novel series, music video, etc.  As you present your choices, don’t assume that everyone in your group is familiar – tell us about it.  Then, do some feminist analysis. In your view, is this media feminist?  Your answer can be a combinatin of positiv and negative critique.  Next, go back to Chapter 1 of our textbook and review the section on applying the Bechdel and Russo tests.  Does your piece of media pass either test?  Why or why not? What would you change or like to see more/less of?
