Antipsychotic Adverse Reactions

The PMHNP is called to the emergency department to evaluate a patient with an acute onset mental status change. The patient has a long history of schizophrenia and has been managed on a variety of antipsychotic therapies that have had some success, but the patient has not ever really achieved goal remission.  Most recently he was started on a first generation antipsychotic along with benztropine (Cogentin). Today the patient is in the ED with confusion and muscle stiffness.  Which of the following represents anticipated vital signs? A. T 103.5o F, P 54 bpm, RR 24 bpm, BP 150/100 mm Hg  B. T 102.5o F, P 129 bpm, RR 22 bpm, BP 170/110 mm Hg  C. T 96.4o F, P 60 bpm, RR 24 bpm, BP 190/120 mm Hg  D. T 98.6o F, P 102 bpm, RR 18 bpm, BP 147/99 mm Hg  --- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9emyKQQhmYc&list=PLf0PFEPBXfq5HGfNV-GbOlYHtDwd35OeG&index=120 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9emyKQQhmYc&list=PLf0PFEPBXfq5HGfNV-GbOlYHtDwd35OeG&index=120]

Autism Spectrum Evaluation

A 3-year-old child is being seen because the daycare facility staff have suggested to the parents that the child is having difficulty interacting with other children. Additionally, the staff have observed that when the child seems to become anxious or upset, he always becomes fixated on stacking building blocks one on top of the other to the extent that he will not acknowledge anyone or anything else.  When the parents ask if their child has autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the PMHNP advises the parents that:  A. The repetitive and predictable nature of stacking blocks is calming in children with ASD B. Stacking blocks is a very typical activity in children at this developmental stage and is not suggestive of ASD.  C. The child should be tested for ASD, but in any event  he should be discouraged from using building blocks as a coping mechanism.  D. While the social dysfunction at this age may suggest ASD, the building block activity is not an abnormal finding in a 3-year-old.  --- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rf3inZzulEg&list=PLf0PFEPBXfq5HGfNV-GbOlYHtDwd35OeG&index=118 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rf3inZzulEg&list=PLf0PFEPBXfq5HGfNV-GbOlYHtDwd35OeG&index=118]

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
