Interrelationship of Theory, Practice, and Research in Nursing and the Role of Nurse Practitioners in Shaping the Future Student’s Name Institutional Affiliation Course Name Instructor Date Interrelationship of Theory, Practice, and Research in Nursing and the Role of Nurse Practitioners in Shaping the Future The interrelationship among theory, practice, and research in nursing is a pivotal aspect of the profession, shaping its growth and efficacy. This critical connection forms the backbone of evidence-based nursing, where theoretical knowledge informs clinical practice and research findings guide the development of new theories. According to Huang et al., 2023, understanding this interplay is paramount for nurses and healthcare providers, as it ensures that patient care remains grounded in the latest research and continuously evolves to meet the changing needs of the healthcare landscape. Interrelationship among Theory, Practice and Research The interrelationship among theory, practice, and research is fundamental to nursing, driving innovation and excellence in patient care. Nursing theory serves as the conceptual foundation of the profession. These theories are systematic and organized ideas that explain and predict various aspects of nursing. They play a crucial role in guiding both nursing practice and research. Nursing theories offer a framework for understanding the patient-nurse relationship, providing a structured approach to care delivery. For instance, theorists like Florence Nightingale and Virginia Henderson have contributed invaluable ideas that have been applied in clinical practice, helping to define the nurse's role and the principles of patient care (Tesh, 2019). Furthermore, nursing theories also provide a basis for research, as they offer testable hypotheses and ideas that can be explored and validated through empirical studies. Nursing practice is where theory meets reality. It is the application of nursing theories and research findings in the clinical setting. Nursing practice is not arbitrary but deeply informed by theory and research. For example, evidence-based practice (EBP) is a methodology that integrates the best available evidence from research with clinical expertise and patient preferences to make decisions about patient care (Sarawad, 2023). EBP emphasizes the importance of research in shaping nursing practice, ensuring that interventions are effective, safe, and tailored to the individual patient's needs.

Week 1 DQ 1 The Institute of Medicine has stated a goal that 90% of practice be evidence-based by 2020. According to HealthyPeople.gov, the United States is currently at approximately 15%. Discuss two barriers that might hold nursing practice from achieving this goal and suggest ways in which identified barriers may be addressed. DQ 2 What is the main issue for your organization in addressing a solution to evidence-based nursing practice? Discuss what might be the first step in addressing and resolving this issue. Capstone Change project topics Work with your preceptor to perform a needs assessment of the organization and community for your practicum. Review the needs assessment to identify possible project topics. In preparation for the capstone change project proposal, compile a list of three to five possible topics for your project. Individual Success Plan Planning is the key to successful completion of this course and program-related objectives. The Individual Success Plan (ISP) assignment requires early collaboration with the course faculty and your course preceptor. Students must establish a plan for successful completion of The required 50 community direct clinical practice experience hours, 50 leadership direct clinical practice hours, and 25 indirect clinical experience hours. Completion of work associated with program competencies. Work associated with completion of the student's capstone project change proposal. Students will use the "Individual Success Plan" to develop an individual plan for completing practice hours and course objectives. As a part of this process, students will identify the number of hours set aside to meet course goals. Student expectations and instructions for completing the ISP document are provided in the "NRS-493 Individual Success Plan" resource, located in the topic Resources and in the assignment instructions. The "Individual Success Plan" is a clinical document that is necessary to meet clinical requirements for this course.

Advanced Pathophysiology Module 2 Discussion 2 Student’s Name University Course Professor Date Hematopoietic Contributing Factors for Iron Deficiency Anemia J.D., a 37-year-old woman, exhibits multiple risk factors for developing iron deficiency anemia (Wiafe et al., 2023). She has been experiencing intermenstrual bleeding and menorrhagia for two months, resulting in chronic blood loss and subsequent iron depletion. Moreover, her recent pregnancy history, with four pregnancies in four years, has likely heightened her iron requirements due to the fetus's and placenta's developmental needs. Why Constipation and Dehydration J.D.'s constipation and mild incontinence can be attributed to multiple factors. The utilization of diuretics in managing hypertension may lead to heightened urinary frequency and slight dehydration, which can potentially contribute to constipation (Arumugham & Shahin, 2020). The recent pregnancies she underwent may have impacted her pelvic floor muscles, potentially leading to the development of mild incontinence. Moreover, her persistent iron deficiency can affect the muscular tone of her gastrointestinal tract, resulting in constipation. Importance of Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid in Erythropoiesis Vitamin B12 and folic acid are essential for erythropoiesis, the red blood cell production process. Both vitamins are necessary for DNA synthesis and cell maturation (Wiafe et al., 2023). Deficiency in either vitamin can lead to megaloblastic anemia, characterized by the production of abnormally large and immature red blood cells. Clinical Symptoms of Iron Deficiency Anemia J.D. displays clinical symptoms indicative of iron deficiency anemia, resulting from the reduced oxygen-carrying capacity of her blood. Fatigue and weakness often occur due to compromised oxygen transportation. The insufficiency is apparent through pallor in her skin and mucous membranes. Tachycardia, a heightened heart rate, arises in response to compensate for decreased oxygen delivery. Breathlessness occurs when the body struggles to provide adequate oxygen to its tissues. The condition also causes cold extremities due to insufficient oxygen supply to peripheral regions.

We know that time shortage is one of the major challenges college/university students are faced with when it comes to matters concerning homework. Quite often than not, you will find yourself, or you have already found yourself rushing to beat your assignments deadline. You know what late assignment submission means to your academic performance, and you certainly are not willing or ready to fall victim of the consequence.

Module 2 Discussion No unread replies.No replies.     Discussion 2 Hematopoietic:  J.D. is a 37 years old white woman who presents to her gynecologist complaining of a 2-month history of intermenstrual bleeding, menorrhagia, increased urinary frequency, mild incontinence, extreme fatigue, and weakness. Her menstrual period occurs every 28 days and lately there have been 6 days of heavy flow and cramping. She denies abdominal distension, back-ache, and constipation. She has not had her usual energy levels since before her last pregnancy.  Past Medical History (PMH):  Upon reviewing her past medical history, the gynecologist notes that her patient is a G5P5with four pregnancies within four years, the last infant having been delivered vaginally four months ago. All five pregnancies were unremarkable and without delivery complications. All infants were born healthy. Patient history also reveals a 3-year history of osteoarthritis in the left knee, probably the result of sustaining significant trauma to her knee in an MVA when she was 9 years old. When asked what OTC medications she is currently taking for her pain and for how long she has been taking them, she reveals that she started taking ibuprofen, three tablets each day, about 2.5 years ago for her left knee. Due to a slowly progressive increase in pain and a loss of adequate relief with three tablets, she doubled the daily dose of ibuprofen. Upon the recommendation from her nurse practitioner and because long-term ibuprofen use can cause peptic ulcers, she began taking OTC omeprazole on a regular basis to prevent gastrointestinal bleeding. Patient history also reveals a 3-year history of HTN for which she is now being treated with a diuretic and a centrally acting antihypertensive drug. She has had no previous surgeries.  Case Study Questions Name the contributing factors on J.D that might put her at risk to develop iron deficiency anemia.
