Question: Michele M. has gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a common source of chronic pain in the United States. GERD has many causes, but one of its causes is an overproduction of stomach acid. A medical professional suggests to Michele that she manage her GERD by drinking less coffee. Since Michele drinks many cups of coffee a day, she cannot imagine how she'll get by without it, and she comes to you to complain. She says the medical doctor told her that coffee stimulates the release of a hormone called "gastrin", and that she doesn't understand why some hormone would cause her to have so much extra stomach acid. She comes to you for a deeper explanation.

- Today in the pediatrician's practice where you work, you have a distraught father who is concerned about his daughter's colic. Her cries and screams greatly concern him. When she scrunches up her legs, she is even hard to hold. This father seems particularly uncomfortable with the situation, but has a really strong desire to know what to do to make his daughter more at ease. It is a particularly busy day in the practice, and after the doctor has determined the problem is colic alone, she asks you to take some time with the father to demonstrate some techniques that might be helpful. What will you do? What will you suggest? How can you help put the father at ease? Explain. ***INCLUDE CITATIONS IN MLA 9TH EDITION PERDUE OWL***arrow_forwardHello, I do not understand this.

He returns to university after the Christmas break feeling tired. Despite eating well over the holidays he notices his pants appear loose. He has been embarrassed by the increased urge to pass gas when sitting in class. (His friend Jane now sits with one seat between them.) He thinks that the fatigue he is experiencing is related to the fact that he now has to get up during the night to have a bowel movement, in addition to going at least twice during the day. He also notices that he now gets terrible gas pains after drinking milk. He stops drinking milk for a week thinking that maybe he picked up that Norwalk virus from his roommate. This makes his gas pains somewhat less but he still is getting up to go to the bathroom at night. On a weekend phone-call to his parents, his mother tells him his 11 month old niece was just diagnosed with celiac disease. Could Matt and his niece have the same problem?

- 09. Question 1 The Digestive System Mr. McArthur is hospitalized with pancreatitis and cholecystitis. Neither his gallbladder nor his pancreas is functioning normally at this time. The client is placed on an NPO (nothing by mouth) diet order, given intravenous fluids and pain medication. The nurse is aware that the pancreas has two functions: one being endocrine, secretion of hormones to assist with glucose control, and the other being exocrine, aiding the digestive system. Mr. McArthur is scheduled for gallbladder removal in the morning to treat the cholecystitis. 1. The client asks what his gallbladder does. What is the nurse’s best response? 2. The client also asks how the pancreas works to help with digestion.
