Secondly, balance in the monitoring of high-risk patients was inadequate. Staff failed to implement additional monitoring for Mr. B. The patient needed extra monitoring due to had an increased dosage due to high tolerance to the prescribed sedatives. Leaving an untrained family member to attend to a patient in respiratory crisis was not only unsafe; it was in violation of established conscious-sedation protocol. Mr. B. was vulnerable when he was left unattended.
Also "chronic villus sampling", this involvs a sample of tissue (a biopsy) taken from the placenta and tested. The effectiveness of these tests would let an individuall decide if they wantedto continue with the pregnancy or have a termination.

Scientists believe this method will transform the severe disease of Duchenne muscular dystrophy to a much milder Becker muscular dystrophy. For me, some pros to this approach would be a cure for a severe case of muscular dystrophy, but it is unfortunate that the patient will still have the disorder, just in a milder form. A con would be any side effects that exon skipping may have. Since there are not any recorded cases of this being done in the United States, it is hard to know whether or not exon skipping could be potentially dangerous to those who want to try the treatment since testing in human patients is still out of the question. Another con is within the administration of the treatment.
Parental refusal of vaccines is a growing a concern for the increased occurrence of preventable diseases in children. Many parents are now refusing such vaccinations because of the possible side effects and the potential of them doing more harm than good. Although many healthcare professionals reassure the public that their children are quite safe in the use of these vaccines, and that the risk is minimal, parents are still concerned that their child will be the one that contracts that potential risk. In spite of the fact that many of these side effects parents hear about are not proven to be caused by the vaccine itself, parents are still leery of giving their children vaccines. Most of these safety concerns are based upon information that these parents have discovered in the media or received from acquaintances.
Mandatory Vaccinations-by cnhuff “Does Jane know that she is endangering the population to not getting little Joe his vaccinations done?” This question could famously exist in many communities after parents find out that selected parents do not follow the doctor’s orders when it comes to vaccinations. This stigma may stand as the reason that vaccinations continue as medically necessary, furthermore, pushed as mandatory. The question for many individuals remain, just how safe are these vaccinations? The lion’s share of the public view vaccinations as safety nets that could prevent diseases and should stand as mandatory for everyone with very few exemptions in the population. However, philosophical beliefs, hazardous beliefs, and religious
Social services should have removed Andy from her care because she could not care for him. I did not think they should have put him in the Los Angeles County because no child should be in a place like that. According to the textbook, Tower-Crosson, (2010). “Protective workers involved in the assessment process learn to ask specific question designed to assess the potential risk of the home situation to the child and the capacity of the parents to cope with child rearing. The interviewing process is an integral
Images the naked eye cannot see! Throughout the years the advances of modern technology has made a new way for physicians to immediately detect prognosis, and save a patient’s life. Ultrasound is a way to treat early diagnoses and present an image that the naked eye cannot view. Ultrasound technologists, also called ultrasound technicians or diagnostic medical sonographers, work in hospitals, physicians’ clinics or diagnostic imaging centers, where they use ultrasound equipment to help detect medical conditions ranging from gall and bladder stones to pregnancy. This medical field is referred to as Sonography.
He is not only informally treating and collecting specimen from his daughter, but he is also not documenting any of the treatments that he is doing. This is a major problem and could be subject to intervention by the law. Joe is risking his medical credibility by doing this for his daughter. He is also performing these tests without the direct supervision of the supervising physician, which goes against the code of conduct (2013). If a physician assistant violates laws that vary from state to state, the physician assistant could be subject to license suspension or being

I asked him one day, “Have you been vaccinated?” He replied, “Yes.” I then asked him, “Do you have poison in your body then?” He didn’t answer my question. I then said to him, “You are endangering your child by not giving him vaccinations. I understand you feel you are protecting him, but you are not. If your child comes in contact with someone who has a fatal disease and your son does not have the proper immune system to fight it, his life
