Stress is a state of threatened homeostasis that triggers an array of adaptive physiological and behavioral response in an effort to reestablish homeostasis. (Edelman & Mandle, 2014) The emergence and experience of stress depends not only on objective, but on subjective factors, the characteristics of the man himself: assessment of their situation, mapping their forces and characteristics that are required, etc. Any surprise which breaks the habitual course of life can cause stress or stressor. It does not matter the content of the situation and the degree of objective threat. Important is a subjective attitude. A stressor is the factor ...

Abstract

This paper deals with two different models of stress theory; namely the response based model of stress which is known as the General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) and the Transactional model of stress known as the interaction theory.

Abstract

Traumatic brain injury is an acquired injury to the brain that results from an external blunt or penetrating force to the head while; intentional hypoxia is the loss of oxygen supply to the brain which leads to a continuum of injury severity. A review of current literature on this topic suggests that comparisons can be readily drawn between traumatic brain injury and hypoxic brain injury in a rehabilitation setting. Even so, diagnosis of hypoxic brain injury and traumatic brain injury is essential in providing guidance on decisions of treatment. Treating intentional hypoxia, however, involves an establishment of the desired ...

Virginia Henderson- Need Theory

Virginia Henderson developed the Nursing Need Theory based on her personal experience gained through practice and education (Zamanzadeh, et al. 2015). Henderson’s core objective was not to form or develop a theory but focus on the core principles associated with nursing practice. She focused on the various factors that contribute to be a successful nursing professional. Henderson through her theory proposed the concept of patient’s independence and improved health outcomes. She states that letting patients independently perform key tasks would fasten the recovery process and decrease the overall hospitalization stay. She states that nursing practice is closely ...

Theoretical and Conceptual Models Contributions To Advanced Nursing Practice

Virginia Henderson theory, which she referred to as the Nursing Need Theory emphasizes on the substantiality for patient’s independence right after hospitalization so that the healing progress is not delayed (Barker, 2015). According to this theory, a practitioner has to use some 14 components that are required to assess if a patient is doing well. Some of these elements include sleep and rest, good hygiene, eliminate body wastes, maintain body temperature, socializing, and worship according to one's faith amongst others. As an advanced nurse specializing with prostate cancers, it is important to apply these components by conducting assessments ...

Diversity in the workplace is crucial in promoting productivity and fairness among workers. The dimensions of diversity such as age, gender, religious affiliation, and ethnicity among others exhibit a significant influence on an individual or collective healthcare needs and capabilities in various ways.

Introduction

The study of human body movement assists in understanding different biomechanical, psychological, and physiological mechanisms of the body. Taking care of a newborn from the time of birth to the age of about twelve months requires the mother or the caregiver to understand some concepts necessary for the survival of the baby. According to Davis, Cladis & Motoyama (2011), the breathing pattern of newborns from up to the age of six months is purely diaphragmatic (abdominal), hence; the need to understand various positions that allow the infant breath effectively. Understanding diaphragmatic breathing patterns acts as one of the major clinical ...

Introduction

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) involves peripheral circulation, the brain, and the heart. The disease is a primary health issue in many countries around the world (Sawhney, et al., 2012). CVD develops through complex processes involving novel risk markers and common risk factors. Decades of research have demonstrated that a sibling’s or parent’s family history is linked to the development of atherosclerotic CVD (Gupta et al., 2013; Nelson, 2013; Imes and Lewis, 2014), which manifests as peripheral arterial disorder, stroke, and coronary heart disorder (CHD). Various Mendelian disorders have also been shown to contribute to atherosclerotic CVD. Although ...

Abstract

The immune and nervous systems are two body structures that have different functions. Moreover, most people may not be able to readily identify the and the relationship between these two. While the immune system is responsible in protecting the body from destructive and invading pathogens, the nervous system is tasked to relay information to the brain. This process allows for the proper coordination of the different functions of the body. In general, the concept of the connection between the nervous and the immune systems stems from the theoretical idea of stress. Stress is denoted both as a physiological and ...

Permanence and Uniqueness are two principles used in understanding the embryology and physiological development of friction ridge skin. The uniqueness and permanence of friction ridge skin have been applied as one of the fundamental factor used in fingerprint identification in forensic science. Fingerprint identification, analysis and comparison play a significant role in forensic science for solving criminal cases. It is imperative to note that friction ridge skin possesses unique attributes that persevere from before birth until decay after death (Edelmann & Denton, 2007). These two principles of unique attributes and their persistence from before birth until decomposition after death are ...

Question 1: Pathophysiology of Mr. Jensen’s post-operative hypovolemia

Hypovolemia is a surgical condition that indicates the rapid fluid loss that may result in organ failures. The outcomes of the hypovolemia are mostly due to insufficient circulating volume or scarce perfusion. Often hypovolemia is secondary to hemorrhage the reason of which includes severe internal or external blood loss and GI, thoracic and abdominal bleeding maladies (Devitt, 2001). Hypovolemia involves significant fluid loss other than blood that can be further accompanied by refractory gastroenteritis and widespread burns. Hypovolemia may develop in post-surgical incidence, bone fracture, due to ...

Examination of Performance Review Conflict

Examination of Performance Review Conflict Performance review conflict can create serious problems in the public sector. In reviewing an employee’s performance, the supervisor considers self-reported performance assessment, his/her observations of an employee’s work, and feedback from other supervisors and peers who had the opportunity to oversee or observe the work of the employee. However, ratings for each criterion depends, in part, on the subjective interpretation of the supervisor. Rater bias and favoritism based on gender, race, age, physical appearance or attractiveness, personality, and personal relations or interests may influence supervisor ratings. Evaluation results become the basis of ...

Introduction Wheat (Triticum sp.), an extensively adapted crop, is one of the primitive and primary staple food crops in the world. Wheat is cultivated from temperate; dry to irrigated or rain-fed areas, to warm, humid or cold conditions. Such a high adaptability is attributed to its intricate genome (Acevedo et al., 2002). Wheat cultivation covers more land area compared to other commercial crops and endures to be an essential food grain for humans (Curtis, 2002). Estimations reveal that by 2050, the population of the world will reach 9.1 billion (34 percent greater than today); correspondingly, the food requirement and ...

Introduction:

In addition to the physiological factors, there are a number of psychological factors that play a major role on musculoskeletal pain that can lead to disability. After the patient has healed from the physiological factors that led to the experience of pain, there are still fear avoidance beliefs that can take the form of chronic pain in the mind, so that the patient resists increases in physical activity levels. Ironically, the decision to reduce physical activity levels in response to this combination of physical pain and psychological fears keeps the back pain chronic, as the patient never overcomes the ...

Principle(s) In his book Comprehensive stress management, J. S. Greenberg highlighted several different theories about what causes stress and its effects on illness and disease (Greenberg, 2006).

Life- Events Theory was developed by Holmes and Rahe and this theory proposes 

that stress occurs when a situation requires more resources than there are available. For  instance, if you are taking a test for which you are unprepared, you may have stress. Some scholars have made lists of main stressful events in people`s lives. The rationale is the following: the more of these events a person experiences, the greater is the stress.DeLongis and her co-workers support this general position, but they think  ...

Consciousness Consciousness is hard to define, as researchers tend to describe it with the help of broad terms that usually vary from scholar to scholar. Some of them claim that it is the only phenomenon that distinguishes us from animals, while the others insist that consciousness helps humans to acknowledge the world around them. Overall, consciousness is considered to be an awareness of a person’s mental processes, like thoughts, feelings, or sensations (Taye, 2010). Consciousness experiences tend to change constantly, for example, in one moment a person can look at the sky and in a second read a ...

Abstract

Notably, interracial couples and their families have faced various challenges including rejection and being stereotyped. These challenges have resulted in increased trauma and developmental delays among interracial people.

Abraham Maslow hierarchy of needs and Herzberg Two-Factor theory are some of the motivation theories that underlie the switch to the new scheduling system at Montego Bay. Abraham Maslow Hierarchy of needs postulates that human beings have a set of five needs arranged in a definite order with three low-level level needs (physiological needs, safety needs, and social needs) and two high-level needs (esteem needs and self actualization needs) (Griffin, 2016). The scheduling system generates work schedules based on the daily performance metrics. Consequently, employees like Sylvia find themselves with lesser hours with which they are not able to ...

The human brain capacity of 1350 cc and it is made up of a very complex network of neurons that develop during the last three months of development (The Function of the Human Brain, 2016). The way we perceive the world around us is ...

Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is a triangle comprising of five levels of needs. Physiological needs (such as baby food) are at the bottom but the largest level (Hollensen, 1). To progress to fulfill higher needs, food must be provided. Food is an integral part of psychological processes and must be provided for the body to work at optimum levels. Lack of food will result in malnutrition, which is apparent to the naked eye (Sheth and Rajendra, 99). Chinese business systems are unique and sophisticated as attested to by their highly developed systems and practices (Hollensen, 3). A wide ...

Introduction

Maslow's hierarchy of needs is a widely known psychological theory even to individuals who have not studied psychology. It suggests that as human being we are motivated to do what we do in order to achieve certain needs. The theory suggests that this hierarchy of needs is achieved in a systematic order and that without achieving the most basic needs and individual may not be able to progress into other needs higher in the hierarchy (Koltko-Rivera, 2006). The following essay provides an exploration of the author’s results from the Maslow’s hierarchy of needs test and personal views ...
