~Early 20th century: Psychodynamic therapy: •Believed that sexual dysfunction was caused by a failure to progress through the stages of psychosexual development •Therapy focused on gaining insight and making broad personality changes; was generally UNHELPFUL ~1950s & 1960s: Behavioral therapy: -Attempted to reduce fear by applying relaxation training & systematic desensitization -Some success, BUT failed to work where key problems included misinformation, negative attitudes, and lack of effective sexual techniques 1970: "sex therapy" program has evolved into a complex approach --> "Human Sexual Inadequacy" Book •Cognitive, behavioral, couples, and family systems therapies, along with a number of sex-specific techniques ~More recently, Biological interventions have also been incorporated

Preventive Care

• Blood pressure and cancer screening • Immunizations • Mental health counseling and crisis prevention • Community legislation (e.g., seat belts, air bags, bike helmets)

objectives of quality improvement programs.

• Continually understand and measure quality of care in terms of structure, or the inputs into the system, such as patients, staff, and environments; process, or the interactions between clinicians and patients; and outcomes, or evidence about changes in patients' health status in relation to patient and community needs • Assess current practices and compare these practices with relevant better practices elsewhere as a means of identifying opportunities for improvement. • Design and test interventions to change the process of care, with the objective of improving quality. • Identifying errors and hazards in care; understand and implement basic safety design principles, such as standardization and simplification and human factors training. • Both act as an effective member of an interdisciplinary/interprofessional team and improve the quality of one's own performance through self-assessment and personal change.

• Evaluate nursing actions to protect patient privacy and avoid invasion of privacy

• Don't give out personal information to other people • Autonomy!

AACN's essential elements of BSN education.

• Emphasized patient-centered care • Interprofessional teams • Evidence based practice • Quality improvement • Patient safety • Informatics • Clinical reasoning/critical thinking • Genetics and genomics • Cultural sensitivity • Professionalism

Causes of Female Orgasmic Disorder

- Biological causes •A variety of physiological conditions can affect a woman's arousal and orgasm -These conditions include diabetes and multiple sclerosis •The same medications and illegal substances that affect erection in men can affect arousal and orgasm in women •Postmenopausal changes may also be responsible - Psychological causes •The psychological causes of female sexual interest/arousal disorder, including depression, may also lead to female arousal and orgasmic disorders •Memories of childhood trauma and relationship distress may also be related - Sociocultural causes •For years, the leading sociocultural theory of female orgasmic problems was that it resulted from sexually restrictive cultural messages •This theory has been challenged because: -Sexually restrictive histories are equally common in women with and without disorders -Cultural messages about female sexuality have been changing while the rate of female sexual dysfunction stays constant •Researchers suggest that unusually stressful events, traumas, or relationships may produce the fears, memories, and attitudes that characterize these dysfunctions •Research has also linked orgasmic behavior to certain qualities in a woman's intimate relationships (such as emotional intimacy)

Explanations and Effective Treatments for Paraphilia?

•Although various explanations proposed for paraphilic disorders --> little formal evidence to support them -NONE of the treatments applied have received much research/been proved clearly effective -Psychological & Sociocultural treatments around the longest, but TODAY also using Biological interventions

Causes of EXCITEMENT Disorders

•Biological Causes: -The SAME hormonal imbalances that can cause male hypoactive sexual desire can also produce ED! -Most COMMONLY: vascular problems involved •ED can also be caused by: Damage to the nervous system from various diseases, disorders, or injuries -The use of certain medications and various forms of substance abuse may interfere with erections (Medical procedures for diagnosing biological causes of ED) --> Measuring nocturnal penile tumescence (NPT) -Men typically have erections during REM sleep; abnormal or absent nighttime erections usually indicate a physical basis for erectile failure •Psychological Causes: -Psychological causes of male hypoactive sexual DESIRE can also interfere with AROUSAL and LEAD to erectile dysfunction! •For example, as many as 90% of men with severe depression experience some degree of ED -One well-supported cognitive explanation for ED emphasizes performance anxiety and the spectator role -This can create a vicious cycle of sexual dysfunction where the original cause of the erectile failure becomes less important than the fear of failure •Sociocultural Causes: -Sociocultural factors that contribute to male hypoactive sexual desire been linked to ED •Particularly relevant: Job and marital distress

Causes of Low Desire/sex drive:

•Biological causes: -A number of hormones interact to produce sexual desire and behavior --> abnormalities (Linked to ED) •prolactin, testosterone, and estrogen for both men and women -Excessive activity of the NTs serotonin and dopamine --> link according to recent investigation to sexual desire disorders -Some medications (including birth control pills and pain medications), some psychotropic drugs, a number of illegal drugs, and chronic illness •Psychological causes: (Linked to ED) -General increase in anxiety, depression, or anger may reduce sexual desire in both men and women -Fears, attitudes, and memories may contribute to sexual dysfunction -Certain psychological disorders (like depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder) may lead to sexual desire disorders •Sociocultural causes: (linked to ED) -Attitudes, fears, & psychological disorders that contribute to sexual desire disorders occur within a social context! •Many feeling situational pressures -Examples: divorce, death, job stress, infertility, and/or relationship difficulties •Cultural standards can set the stage for development •The trauma of sexual molestation or assault is especially likely to produce sexual dysfunction

• Identify the safety needs of special populations. Pediatric:

•Calculations based on weight •Accurate weight •Different volumes and concentrations •Renal, Immune, & Hepatic function

Disorders of Sexual Pain, known collectively as genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder

•Certain sexual dysfunctions are characterized by enormous physical discomfort during intercourse and do not fit neatly into a specific phase of the sexual response cycle -Are experienced by women much more often than men •Some women experience involuntary contractions of the muscles of the outer third of the vagina (vaginismus)

goals of risk management

•Control cost of financial losses •Minimize occurrences of legal claims against the organization •Reduce injury to the lowest possible level •Protect the public •Protect healthcare personnel - maintain safe environment & equipment, tng, examine systems & Processes •Enhance quality of care provided •Maintain client satisfaction

ways to prevent malpractice

•Documentation •Use of standardized forms •Knowledge and skills of staff •Competency and accountability of staff •Quality improvement activities Risk management activities

• Explain the importance of public education of preventable medical errors

•Engage families in helping to improve patient safety. •Teach patients and families how to prevent errors. •Teach patients to question meds, etc

• Explain safety measures for high alert medications.

•Establish a good practice with another nurse •Do not store insulin and heparin near each other •Spell out the word unit •Remove concentrated KCl from stock •Educate staff on hydromorphone and morphine •Anticoagulants standardize concentrations •Remove heparin from top of medication carts •Remove NaCl concentrations >0.9%

Orgasm for sexual functioning mandatory?

•Female orgasmic disorder -Most clinicians agree that orgasm during intercourse is NOT mandatory for normal sexual functioning •Early psychoanalytic theory USED to consider lack of orgasm during intercourse to be pathological -Current evidence suggests that this is UNTRUE! -Once again, biological, psychological, and sociocultural factors combined factors •Because AROUSAL plays a key role in orgasms, arousal difficulties often are featured in explanations of female orgasmic disorder

• Discuss the human factors associated with preventable medical error.

•Inaccurate calculations •Workarounds •Incorrect equipment use •Miscommunications •Missed opportunities to perform quality control checks •Lacking teamwork •Resource management •Missing situational awareness

• Describe a culture of patient safety

•Produce an environment with a philosophy that safety is everyone's business from top down; A place where staff members feel it is safe to report a problem so the system can be changed to prevent a reoccurrence. •Develop reporting system that is a blame-free with open communication, analyzing the processes or system instead of pointing fingers at the individual by using quality improvement tools and finding root causes. •Report all errors, near-misses, and substandard care. •Disclose protocols & mistakes; acknowledge responsibility and apologize for the mistakes to the patients and families. •Make pharmacists part of the team.

• Define the tools and methods used to monitor and improve health care.

•Standards of Care •Policies and Procedures •Licensure and Credentialing •Utilization Review/Management (UR/UM) •Risk Management (RM) •Benchmarking •Assessment of Access to Healthcare Services •Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) •Clinical Pathways/Protocols •Institutional Review Board (IRB) •Healthcare Policy and Legislation

Causes of Premature ejaculation?

•The dysfunction seems to be typical of young, sexually inexperienced men •It may also be related to anxiety, hurried masturbation experiences, or poor recognition of arousal •One theory states that some men are born with a genetic predisposition •A second theory argues that the brains of men with early ejaculation contain certain serotonin receptors that are overactive and others that are underactive •A third explanation holds that men with this dysfunction experience greater sensitivity or nerve conduction in the area of their penis

• Recognize common abbreviation errors associated with medications

•U - mistaken for a zero or a four (4) resulting in an overdose •µg (microgram) - mistaken for mg or milligrams. 1 mg = 1000 mcg •Q.D. - the period after the Q is mistaken for an I resulting in QID (four times a day) rather than daily •Q.O.D. - misinterpreted as QD (daily) or QID (4x daily). If the O is poorly written, looks like a period or I. •SQ - mistaken as SL when poorly written •TIW - misinterpreted as three times a day or twice a week instead of three times a week •D/C - patient's medications have been prematurely discontinued when intended to mean discharge •AU, AS, AD - misinterpreted as the Latin abbreviation OU, OS, and OD (eyes instead of ears)
