What should the patient understand about the importance of reviewing gynecological history?

You are seeing a 15-year-old female patient for a gynecological exam and to explore birth control options. The patient’s mother scheduled the appointment after learning that her daughter has become sexually active. The patient is current with all immunizations, including Gardasil, and has no significant health history that would contraindicate the use of birth control. This is the patient’s first gynecological exam, and she expresses feeling nervous and embarrassed that her mother has shared her sexual experience with strangers. Taking this into account, how would you begin the patient encounter? As you begin asking questions to determine the patient’s gynecological history, the patient appears frustrated and embarrassed and reminds you that she has only had sex one time. What should the patient understand about the importance of reviewing gynecological history? What are the most popular birth control methods prescribed in the United States? What determines the success or failure of a birth control method? The patient expresses a desire for the most effective form of birth control but is concerned about weight gain and other side effects. How should you respond to her concerns?

Identify three trends that you think will affect how, what, why computer scientists work in the world in the 2020-2040 period.

the role of engineers and engineering in development taking a historical perspective and dividing time up into different eras based on dominant themes. The last section covers the time period “2000-present” and is described on p. 40 as taking place as three trends converge. One is an education trend; one is an employment trend; and one is a media/visibility trend.

 

• Identify three trends that you think will affect how/what/why computer scientists work in the world in the 2020-2040 period. Your trends do not have to fall into the education, employment, and/or media space though you may want to consider whether one or more of these (suitably updated) is interesting to include.
• Give two current examples of ways that pairs of these trends are coming together to have meaning or lead to different behavior.

Proofs for the existence of a god

The Ontological Argument,” St. Aquinas, “The Cosmological Argument,” Paley, “The Teleological Argument”. Do you think any of the arguments are especially convincing? Are they all simply awful? First, write a quick impression of what you thought about each argument. Then, pick one argument in particular – what did you really like (or dislike!) about it, and why. What do you think the author really assumed about god, and what kind of being god is? Are they making good assumptions about god, scripture, the world, or even logic? And finally, do you really think we can do anything with these proofs for the existence of god? Do they prove anything? Are they just preaching to the choir (so to speak)? Or do they actually help us understand something about god and/or the world?

2. How did you determine that the source was not from the United States?
3. How did the perspective of the international scholar compare with your perspective as a U.S. citizen?
4. How might different systems of health care affect research productivity and ways
that a nation uses evidence in its health policy?
5. Will you seek international sources of evidence to inform your practice? Why or why
not?
6. How might culture influence how you might use a particular source of evidence?
