ADULTS<br />

This lecture identifies tasks characteristic<br />

of different stages of development from<br />

during young, middle, and older adulthood<br />

together with usual physical development.<br />

It is here we trace psychosocial<br />

development according to Erikson from<br />

during young, middle, and older adulthood<br />

and explain cognitive development<br />

according to Piaget, Kohlberg, and Fowler.<br />

This lecture attempts to cover assessment<br />

activities and expected characteristics and<br />

essential activities of health promotion and<br />

protection to meet the needs of during<br />

young, middle, and older adulthood.<br />

SLEEP<br />

SLEEP<br />

Sleep is a naturally recurring state<br />

characterized by reduced or absent<br />

consciousness, relatively suspended<br />

sensory activity, and inactivity of nearly all<br />

voluntary muscles. This topic attempts to<br />

understand the functions and the<br />

physiology of sleep, characteristics of<br />

NREM and REM sleep and different<br />

stages of NREM sleep. Variations in sleep<br />

patterns throughout the life span and<br />

factors that affect normal sleep including<br />

<strong>com</strong>mon sleep disorders are discussed<br />

while identifying the <strong>com</strong>ponents of a<br />

sleep pattern assessment. Students are<br />

helped to develop nursing diagnoses,<br />

out<strong>com</strong>es, and nursing interventions<br />

related to sleep problems and<br />

interventions that promote normal sleep.<br />

NURSING: NURSING: SAFETY SAFETY<br />

SAFETY<br />

Hygiene refers to the set of practices<br />

perceived by a <strong>com</strong>munity to be<br />

associated with the preservation of health<br />

and healthy living. While in modern<br />

medical sciences there is a set of<br />

standards of hygiene re<strong>com</strong>mended for<br />

different situations, what is considered<br />

hygienic or not can vary between different<br />

cultures, genders and etarian groups.<br />

Some regular hygienic practices may be<br />

considered good habits by a society while<br />

the neglect of hygiene can be considered<br />

disgusting, disrespectful or even<br />

threatening. This video discusses hygienic<br />

care that nurses provide to clients, factors<br />

influencing personal hygiene and looks at<br />

normal and abnormal assessment findings<br />

while providing hygiene care. The lecture<br />

covers the application of the nursing<br />

process to <strong>com</strong>mon problems related to<br />

hygienic care of the skin, feet, nails, mouth,<br />

hair, eyes, ears, and nose while identifying<br />

the purposes and various types of bathing.<br />

The video lecture enumerates specific<br />

ways in which nurses help hospitalized<br />

clients with hygiene and steps for<br />

identified hygienic-care procedures such<br />

as steps in removing contact lenses and<br />

inserting and removing artificial eyes;<br />

removing, cleaning, and inserting hearing<br />

aids and also safety and <strong>com</strong>fort<br />

measures underlying bed-making<br />

procedures.<br />

NURSING: NURSING: NURSING: SA SAFETY SA FETY<br />

This video discusses factors that affect<br />

people's ability to protect themselves from<br />

injury, methods to assess clients at risk for<br />

injury and <strong>com</strong>mon potential hazards<br />

throughout the life span. It give examples<br />

of nursing diagnoses, out<strong>com</strong>es, and<br />

interventions for clients at risk for<br />

accidental injury and outlines plan<br />

strategies to maintain safety in the health<br />

care setting, home, and <strong>com</strong>munity,<br />

including prevention strategies across the<br />

life span for thermal injury, falls, seizures,<br />

poisoning, suffocation or choking,<br />

excessive noise, electric hazards, firearms,<br />

and radiation. The content covers<br />

measures to prevent falls, implementation<br />

of seizure precautions and the use and<br />

legal implications of restraints and their<br />

alternatives.<br />

SELF CONCEPT<br />

CONCEPT<br />

This topic identifies four personal and<br />

social dimensions of self-concept while<br />

giving Erikson's explanation of the effects<br />

of psychosocial tasks on self-concept and<br />

self-esteem. The four <strong>com</strong>ponents of<br />

self-concept, <strong>com</strong>mon stressors affecting<br />

self-concept and coping strategies are<br />

discussed while describing the essential<br />

aspects of assessing role relationships.<br />

Students will identify nursing diagnoses<br />

related to altered self-concept and nursing<br />

interventions designed to achieve<br />

identified out<strong>com</strong>es for clients with altered<br />

self-concept and ways to enhance client<br />

self-esteem.<br />

SENSORY<br />

PERCEPTION<br />

PERCEPTION<br />

PERCEPTION<br />

Perception eption is the organization,<br />

identification, and interpretation of sensory<br />

information in order to fabricate a mental<br />

representation through the process of<br />

transduction, which sensors in the body<br />

transform signals from the environment<br />

into encoded neural signals. This video<br />

lecture looks at the anatomic and<br />

physiologic <strong>com</strong>ponents of the<br />

sensory-perception process, factors<br />

influencing sensory function, and factors<br />

that place a client at risk for sensory<br />

disturbances. Essential <strong>com</strong>ponents in<br />

assessing a client's sensory-perception<br />

function and clinical signs and symptoms<br />

of sensory overload and deprivation are<br />

discussed. Students will learn how to<br />

develop nursing diagnoses and out<strong>com</strong>e<br />

criteria for clients with impaired sensory<br />

function and nursing interventions to<br />

promote and maintain sensory function as<br />

they identify strategies to promote and<br />

maintain orientation to person, place, time,<br />

and situation for the confused client.<br />

Community resources for clients with<br />

chronic sensory disturbances are<br />

identified.<br />

NURSING: NURSING: SEXUALITY<br />

SEXUALITY<br />

Sexual health implies that people are able<br />

to have a responsible, satisfying and safer<br />

sex life and that they have the capability to<br />

reproduce and the freedom to decide if,<br />

when and how often to do so. This lecture<br />

covers <strong>com</strong>ponents of psychologic sexual<br />

health, sexual development, concerns<br />

across the life span, factors influencing<br />

sexuality and <strong>com</strong>mon illnesses affecting<br />

sexuality. Part of the discussion includes<br />

essential aspects of sexual stimulation,<br />

intercourse, and the sexual response<br />

cycle as physiologic changes in males and<br />

females during the sexual response cycle<br />

are outlined. The topic covers the forms of<br />

male and female sexual dysfunction and<br />

students gain the ability to conduct a<br />

sexual history, recognize health-promotion<br />

teaching related to reproductive structures<br />

and finally identify nursing diagnoses and<br />

interventions for the client experiencing<br />

sexuality problems.<br />

This video covers factors affecting skin<br />

integrity, clients at risk for pressure ulcer<br />

formation and the four stages of pressure<br />

ulcer development. Wound healing is<br />

covered in details in this video in terms of<br />

its classification, phases, major types of<br />

exudates, main <strong>com</strong>plications of and<br />

factors that affect it. Assessment data<br />

pertinent to skin integrity, pressure sites,<br />

and wounds as it relates to nursing<br />

diagnoses associated with impaired skin<br />

integrity is discussed as essential aspects<br />

of planning care to maintain skin integrity<br />
