Spina Bifida
(8 Pages, 95.6 USD)
|
|
An 8 page paper discussing the birth defect, its causes and treatment. Spina bifida is a birth defect of decreasing incidence in the United States, largely resulting from better nutritional information among women of childbearing age. It can have nearly no symptoms in its mildest forms, but severe cases can manifest paralysis and mental retardation. A high percentage of cases could be avoided with adequate levels of folic acid, and the nutrient has become a standard food additive in the US. Genetic predisposition and some drugs also can play a role. The only known effective treatment is that of surgery; surgeons successfully performed an in utero covering of the neural tube so that exposure to amniotic fluid would not further damage it. The baby was born with normal leg movement only a few weeks later. Bibliography lists 14 sources.

ANA : Code for Nursing
(8 Pages, 95.6 USD)
|
|
An 8 page paper which illustrates some of the most recent concerns involving the ANA Code for Nursing. This is a document that was designed in 1976 and it sets forth all of the ethical concerns that nurses should consider when performing their duties as nurses. The focus of the paper centers around the issues that are not included in the ANA Code for Nurses. The most prevalent issues addressed are the consideration of nurses who wish to have a choice in whether to quit a case or not, issues involving new health care plans, and issues involving euthanasia. For the most part the ANA Code for Nurses addresses the needs of the patient and not the nurse. As a result of the lack of attention that the nurses have in relationship to this document, and in relationship to areas where the document has proven insufficient, many states and organizations have added to the ANA Code and implemented additional codes. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

The Case Against Forced Military Anthrax Vaccination
(22 Pages, 262.9 USD)
|
|
A 22 page paper evaluating the validity of the Department of Defense's staunch support for mandatory anthrax vaccinations of all members of the US armed forces. The paper gives an overview of the disease and Louis Pasteur's discovery of a vaccination against it. It reviews conditions surrounding other controversial health issues and concludes that, given the military's history of direct lack of consideration for the well being of troops or civilians in the Cold War years, its reluctance to accept any responsibility for Agent Orange consequences and its absolute denial that Gulf War Syndrome exists at all, troops would be wise to resist accepting the vaccine until Congress can manage to withdraw all funding for the project. Antibiotic treatment is highly effective when diagnosis is early. The paper favors abandoning the vaccination project completely. Bibliography lists 21 sources.
