A patient attending an aggression management group therapy session disrupts the meeting repeatedly by interrupting the discussion. An appropriate response from the nurse would be:
 
  a. It sounds as if your thoughts are troubling you. This may not be a good time for you to be meeting with us. I suggest you take a brief time-out..
  b. What's happening with you right now? How can you control the effect this may have on your ability to stay calm and focused on our group goals?
  c. Can you remember what we talked about in the assertiveness training group yesterday? What do you need to do to regain control of your behavior?
  d. Do any of you want to share your feelings about what is happening? If not, I'll assume no one is particularly distressed by the disruptive behavior..

Question 2

Although better known as hormones, insulin, ACTH, thyrotropin, and calcitonin are also called:

Answer to Question 1

A
The most therapeutic nursing intervention is the one that excuses the patient from the group to protect the patient from being embarrassed once control is regained. In addition, the time-out may provide a reduction in milieu stimulation and provide needed structure and control. In assessing the potential for violent behavior, the nurse measures the patient's mental status as well as is possible. A patient who is unable to control talking out loud is not a good participant in a group meeting, whether the behavior is one of manipulation or a sign of potential aggression and disintegration.

Answer to Question 2

D
Peptides are formed from linking amino acids in a specific order. Insulin, ACTH, thyrotropin, and calcitonin are examples of peptides.

Did you know?

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

Certain topical medications such as clotrimazole and betamethasone are not approved for use in children younger than 12 years of age. They must be used very cautiously, as directed by a doctor, to treat any child. Children have a much greater response to topical steroid medications.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Not getting enough sleep can greatly weaken the immune system. Lack of sleep makes you more likely to catch a cold, or more difficult to fight off an infection.

Vaccines prevent between 2.5 and 4 million deaths every year.
