Case Study: A 25-year-old presented to the labor and delivery unit with complaints of uterine cramping and lower back pain. The client denied any vaginal bleeding and had a history of preterm birth at 32 weeks (about 7 and a half months) gestation with her last pregnancy. The baby from that pregnancy is three years old has no developmental issues. The client’s gestational age is 30 weeks (about 7 months). She is O+, and all other lab values are normal. No evidence of sexually transmitted infections (STI’s).

(Group Beta Strep is missing from the labs and most often is obtained at 35 – 37 weeks (about 8 and a half months) gestation. Without this information, it is often determined to treat the patient anyway, to protect a premature baby from the risk.)

• What additional information should the nurse obtain from the client?
• What nursing intervention is most appropriate in this situation?
• What screening tests should be obtained to determine the risk for preterm labor?
• If the client is in preterm labor, what medications would the nurse expect to be ordered, and what are the priorities for the nurse to assess post-administration? (Include dose, side effects and expected outcomes of the medication).

Business Finance – Economics HOMEWORK

Discussion 1:

Watch the video clip from  Jingle All the Way .   (View  Transcript.)   

Consider the following: Prices serve a rationing function. When quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied, prices rise to alleviate the shortage. When quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded, prices fall to alleviate the surplus. However, when prices are inflexible, shortages and surpluses persist. Other rationing mechanisms must develop.

1. Using demand and supply analysis, describe a specific situation that you have witnessed where a shortage occurred. Why were prices unable to adjust in this market?

2. Combining what you learned from your readings as well as from the video clip, what other rationing functions could develop to alleviate that shortage?

Discussion 2

Watch the video clip from  Bart Gets an Elephant.   (View  Transcript.) 

Consider the relationship between price elasticity of demand and total revenue, and why Homer didn’t make the smartest business decision when raising the price of admission. For this week’s discussion question, you should pick two products: one that is relatively price inelastic and another that is relatively price elastic. You can determine a product’s relative price elasticity by considering the Determinants of the Price Elasticity of Demand listed in your textbook. You should begin by defining your product in terms of the determinants and then describe how increases in the price would affect total revenue.Would it make good business sense to be the one producing and selling these products? Why or why not?

Discussion 3

Watch the video clip from  Cool Hand Luke .   (View  Transcript.)   

Consider how marginal benefits and marginal costs fit into Luke’s decision, and how the concept of diminishing marginal utility is at work as Luke eats more and more eggs.

a. What is driving his marginal benefits to continue to exceed his marginal cost?

b. Consider how Luke’s decision would change if he had to actually pay for each egg he eats. How would this affect his choice to continue eating?

c. Consider the concept of marginal utility per dollar spent (i.e. MU/P) and how it affects the consumption decisions we make. Think of a time when you ended up buying your second choice instead of your first choice. Explain how that decision was made because it wasn’t only about marginal utility for you, but about marginal utility per dollar spent.
