Gastrointestinal And Hepatobiliary Disorders
\nGastrointestinal (GI) and hepatobiliary disorders affect the structure and function of the GI tract. Many of these
\ndisorders often have similar symptoms, such as abdominal pain, cramping, constipation, nausea, bloating, and
\nfatigue. Since multiple disorders can be tied to the same symptoms, it is important for advanced practice nurses Symptoms of many of these diseases are often the same, like stomach pain, cramps, constipation, nausea, bloating, and tiredness. Since the same symptoms can point to more than one disease, it is important for advanced practice nurses to be able to tell the difference.<\/p>\n
to carefully look at each patient and give them a treatment that focuses on the cause, not just the symptoms.
\nto carefully evaluate patients and prescribe a treatment that targets the cause rather than the symptom.
\nOnce the underlying cause is identified, an appropriate drug therapy plan can be recommended based on medical
\nhistory and individual patient factors. Examine a case study of a patient who presents with symptoms of a
\npossible GI\/hepatobiliary disorder, and you design an appropriate drug therapy plan.
\nPatient HL comes into the clinic with the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. The patient has a
\nhistory of drug abuse and possible Hepatitis C. HL is currently taking the following prescription drugs:
\nSynthroid 100 mcg daily
\nNifedipine 30 mg daily
\nPrednisone 10 mg daily
\nTo Prepare
\nReview the case study
\nReflect on the patient\u2019s symptoms, medical history, and drugs currently prescribed.
\nThink about a possible diagnosis for the patient. Consider whether the patient has a disorder related to
\nthe gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary system or whether the symptoms are the result of a disorder
\nfrom another system or other factors, such as pregnancy, drugs, or a psychological disorder.
\nConsider an appropriate drug therapy plan based on the patient\u2019s history, diagnosis, and drugs currently
\nprescribed.
\nIn a 2-page address the following
\nExplain your diagnosis for the patient, including your rationale for the diagnosis.
\nDescribe an appropriate drug therapy plan based on the patient\u2019s history, diagnosis, and drugs currently
\nprescribed.
\nJustify why you would recommend this drug therapy plan for this patient. Be specific and provide
\nexamples.<\/p>\n
