Discussion

Discussion Part One
(graded)

John is a
19-year-old college football player who presents with sneezing, itchy eyes, and
nasal congestion that worsens at night. He states that he has a history of
asthma, eczema and allergies

to pollen. There is
also one other person on the football team that has similar symptoms. His
vitals are BP 110/70, P 84, R 18, T 100 F. Write a differential of at least
five (5) possible items from the most likely to less likely. For each disease include
information about the epidemiology, pathophysiology and briefly argue why this
disease fits the presentation and why it might not fit the presentation

Week 1: Altered
Immune System and Altered Inflammatory Response – Discussion

Part Two

A patient has been
admitted into the emergency room that was in the passenger side of a car that
collided with another car head on. The patient is pale, barely conscious and
has a weak and thready pulse. An IV is started. The vitals are BP 80/50, P 140,
T 96.0 and R 26. As the team fights to keep the patient alive they have to
remove the spleen. Blood is given but it has been mistyped. A transfusion
reaction occurs. Describe the type of hypersensitivity reaction that has
occurred and discuss the molecular pathophysiology of the specific type of
hypersensitive reaction you have chosen.

In the event that
this patient survived the car accident and the transfusion reaction which
organs are most likely to be damaged and why?

Discussion

A 44-year-old
patient presents with lump in the chest of approximately 2 cm in diameter.
There is a slight dimple over the location of the lump and when the lump is
manipulated it seems to be attached to the surrounding tissue. A lumpectomy is
performed and the mass is sent to pathology. The pathology report comes back
and the mass is confirmed to be an estrogen receptor negative, a progesterone
receptor negative and a her2/neu receptor positive breast cancer.

What are some of the
risk factors for breast cancer?

What tumor
suppressor genes are associated with breast cancer?

What tumor oncogenes
are associated with breast cancer?

Compare and contrast
tumor suppressor genes from oncogenes?

A five-month-old Caucasian female is brought into the clinic
as the parent complain that she has been having ongoing foul-smelling , greasy
diarrhea. She seems to be small for her age and a

bit sickly but, her parent’s state that she has a huge
appetite. Upon examination you find that

the patient is wheezing and you observe her coughing.

Tammy is a 33-year-old who presents for evaluation of a
cough. She reports that about 3 weeks ago she developed a “really bad cold”
with rhinorrhea. The cold seemed to go away but then she developed a profound,
deep, mucus-producing cough. Now, there is no rhinorrhea or rhinitis—the
primary problem is the cough. She develops these coughing fits that are
prolonged, very deep, and productive of a lot of green sputum. She hasn’t had
any fever but does have a scratchy throat. Tammy has tried over-the-counter
cough medicines but has not had much relief. The cough keeps her awake at night
and sometimes gets so bad that she gags and dry heaves.

Write a differential of at least five (5) possible
diagnosis’s and explain how each may be a possible answer to the clinical
presentation above.

Remember, to list the differential in the order of most
likely to less likely.

Based upon what you have at the top of the differential how
would you treat this patient?

Suppose now, the patient has a fever of 100.4 and complains
of foul smelling mucous and breath. Indeed, she complains of producing cups of
mucous some days. She has some trouble breathing on moderate exertion but this
is only a minor complaint to her. How does this change your differential and
why?

A 17-year-old African American from the inner city complains
of severe chest and abdominal pain. Upon examination the attending physician
performs and EKG, chest x-ray, and an abdominal and chest clinical examination
and finds nothing. Assuming, she is drug seeking he sends her home. She comes
back to the ER 4 hours later and now you see the patient. She explains that she
was running track this past afternoon at school and that despite being very hot
(100 F) she pushed on. Afterwards, she starts feeling extensive pain in her
chest and abdomen. She has jaundiced eyes, her blood pressure is 98/50, pulse
is 112, T = 99.9 F, R = 28. The pain seems out of proportion to the physical
findings.

What is your list of differential diagnoses in this case and
explain how each of these fits with the case patient as described above. Be
sure to list at least four (4) pertinent differential diagnoses. Indicate which
of these you would select as the most likely diagnosis and explain why.

Now, as she is in the ER she begins to exhibit stroke like
features. ? Does this change your differential? How do you treat this patient
now? Are they any preventative actions that could have been taken?

Jesse is a 57-year-old male who presents with gradual onset
of dyspnea on exertion and fatigue. He also complains of frequent dyspepsia
with nausea and occasional epigastric pain. He states that at night he has
trouble breathing especially while lying on his back. This is relieved by him
sitting up. His vitals are 180/110, P = 88, T = 98.0 C, R = 20.

in your differential fits and how it might not fit.

A new patient is brought into the office for their annual
evaluation. The child is a 6-year-old and

appears a bit small for their age but not so small that any
alarm bells are set off. The vitals are: P

= 116, R = 22, T = 98.6 , BP = 110/50. (The normal vitals in
a 6-year-old are P = 75 – 120, R =

16 – 22, T = 98.6 , BP = (85-115)/(48-64). Examination of
the lungs is normal, HEENT is normal,as is the abdominal exam. The heart
however, seems laterally displaced and there appears to be only a continuous
murmur which can be described as crescendo/decrescendo systolic murmur that
extends into diastole. Because, you were trained at Chamberlain College of
Nursing you immediately know that this is probably a patent ductus arteriosus.

Mrs. Orndorf is a 28-year-old woman married for 3 years who
has just returned from an outdoor camping trip with her husband, with symptoms
of dysuria with a burning sensation, urgency to urinate, and frequent
urination. She said, “I have had similar symptoms three times over the last 2

Johnny is a 5-year-old Asian boy who is brought to a family
practice office with a “runny” nose that started about 1 week ago but has not
resolved. He has been blowing his nose quite frequently and “sores” have
developed around his nose. His mother states, “The sores started as ‘big
blisters’ that rupture; sometimes, a scab forms with a crust that looks like
“dried maple syrup” but continues to seep and drain.” She is worried because
the lesions are now also on his forearm. Johnny’s past medical and family
histories are normal. He has been febrile but is otherwise asymptomatic. The
physical examination was unremarkable except for moderate, purulent rhinorrhea
and 0.5- to 1-cm diameter weeping lesions around the nose and mouth and on the
radial surface of the right forearm. There is no regional lymphadenopathy.
