Reference: Bishop, S. M., Walker, M. D., & Spivak, I. M. (2013). Family presence in the adult burn intensive care unit during dressing changes. Critical Care Nurse, 33(1), 14-24.
Summary: The article has focused on family-centered care in the adult burn intensive care unit. The article described the process of incorporating family presence in the burn intensive care unit during dressing chances and shared the outcomes of this approach. The article has analyzed how intensive care units have succeeded with the presence of the family during burn dressing and how they aid change in the healthcare environment. The study has demonstrated that letting the family be present during dressing changes offers a chance to include and educate the family members in the care provision.
Reason for Selecting the Reading: The reason for selecting this reading is to examine the application of family-centered care among adults in the burn intensive care unit. The concept of patient and family-centered approach in healthcare delivery has been considered useful in delivering appropriate care for a pediatric burn but not in adult burn.
The Main Point of the Reading: The main point of the reading is that family attendance in dressing changes offers a chance to boost care and education are conveyed to the patients and family in the intensive burn care unit, thus reducing pain and anxiety. During dressing changes, the patient’s family presence led to a greater reduction in both anxiety and pain (Bishop, Walker, and Spivak, 2013). The patient’s family has been considered essential support and essential for collaboration between patients, patients’ families, and healthcare professionals.
Health Deviations: The burn unit’s traditional practice read out that visitors were not permitted to be in the intensive care unit. The family presence in the care unit during dressing changes deviates from the traditional practice in the care unit. Incorporating the family pressing in the dressing changes has improved the health outcomes among patients. Patient and family-centered care has proved more positive outcomes through greater patient satisfaction and their families, increased chance for education and communication about the patient care plan, and greater readiness for patient’s discharge.
Takeaway: An outstanding result in the implementation of family presence is the change of attitude among staff. Developing a close relationship with patients and their families is important to the nurses since it allows them to educate the family about burns and the healing process. The nurses have greatly embraced the patient and family-centered care concept due to the significance of such intervention.

A cross-sectional study investigating disease awareness and barriers to communicating knowledge in high-risk populations in London. BMC public health, 19(1), 138.
Summary: The aim of the study was to examine the public awareness about the risk factors, symptoms and lifestyle choices that are commonly linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study also aimed at examining whether the awareness level varies if the questions are asked in varying languages among the ethnic minorities. The study relied on a cross-sectional study in London UK which involved 399 participants between 25 and 74 years and non-diabetic (Kayyali et al., 2019). The results of the study have indicated a gap in awareness about the risk factors, symptoms and lifestyle choices linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Reason for Selecting the Reading: The reason for selecting this article is to examine the level of awareness and knowledge among the public with regards to risk, lifestyle choices and symptoms linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The Main Point of the Reading: The main point of the reading is that most people are less aware about the lifestyle choices, risk factors and symptoms linked to type 2 diabetes. Half of the participants illustrated to have good or adequate awareness with the risks, lifestyle choices and symptoms linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Health Deviations: Poor knowledge on several aspects of diabetes pose a higher risk and poor outcome in diabetic individuals. This is because lack of awareness on the risk, lifestyle choices and symptoms may influence the ability of an individual to manage diabetes. For instance, individual’s current lifestyle choices which linked to Type 2 diabetes such as as alcohol consumption and smoking may be influenced by adequate awareness.
Takeaway: Population knowledge and awareness on lifestyle choices, risk factors and symptoms are critical to health initiatives on how to tackle the disease. The level of diabetes and diabetes management are linked to ability to prevent and monitor the disease through awareness which promotes the control and prevention efforts.

Reference: Hasan, S. S., Clavarino, A. M., Dingle, K., Mamun, A. A., & Kairuz, T. (2015). Diabetes mellitus and the risk of depressive and anxiety disorders in Australian women: a longitudinal study. Journal of Women’s Health, 24(11), 889-909.
Summary: The study has examined the risk of anxiety and depressive disorders and how they are linked to diabetes. The study paid attention to the link amid the threat of anxiety and depressive disorders and diabetes among women in Australia through longitudinal study. Data samples were collected from women who in the birth and pregnancy cohort research. Information collected consisted of individual diabetes mellitus reports and consequent reporting of anxiety and depressive conditions. The results indicated that most diabetic women had recorded a higher period occurrence of anxiety or depressive disorder than non-diabetic women (Hasan et al., 2015). Therefore, the existence of diabetes is a great threatening factor for women since it leads to depressive and anxiety conditions.
Reason for selecting the Reading: Anxiety and depression are the most common comorbidities linked to diabetes due to changes in health-related behavior and lifestyle. Therefore, the reason for selecting this article is to understand how diabetes is linked to the risk of anxiety and depression. This is because most diabetes cases have been related to anxiety and depressive disorders.
The Main Point of the Reading: The main point of the reading is that prevalence of anxiety and depressive disorder are high in women with diabetes as compared to those without. Diabetes increases the risk of anxiety and depression due to feelings of loss and threat related to the diagnosis and lifestyle changes (Hasan et al., 2015). Poorly controlled diabetes can result in high depressive and anxiety scores. Diabetes is linked to a high risk of psychological disorders due to diabetes-specific distress.
Health Deviations: Significant deviations in levels of blood glucose and insulin controls may result in an increased risk of diabetes. Women with impaired glucose metabolism have a burden of managing the complication, which leads to depressive symptoms. Therefore, biological alterations that occur due to diabetes may lead to greater risks of depression and anxiety disorders.
Takeaway: The prevalence of anxiety and depression among women with diabetes is higher than women without diabetes. Depression and anxiety place serious constraints on the patient’s life due to the rise in complications. Ideally, the changes in levels of blood sugar cause rapid changes in moods and mental health. This is because having diabetes can lead to diabetic stress, which leads to some traits of anxiety and depression.

Summary: The article focused on defining the optimal methods that can be used to predict the onset of Addison disease. The study examined ACTH, Plasma Renin Activity and peak cortisol to measure their effectiveness in determining the onset of AD (Baker et al., 2012). The results of the study indicated that ACTH is the most effective as an early indicator for forthcoming Addison disease as compared to PRA, 201H-AA or peak cortisol.
Reason for selecting the reading: The reason for selecting this reading is because the article has focused on the most effective method for determining Addison disease onset. This offers essential information on the most useful tool to determine Addison disease during onset to mitigate mortality and morbidity linked to late diagnosis.
The Main Point of the Reading: Temperately elevated ACTH is the most effective in early detection of Addison disease. This is because, in a period of two years prior to Addison disease progress, there was little variation between the non-progressor and mean progressor values specifically for Peak cortisol, PRA and 21OH-AA.
Health Deviations: Inaccurate prediction of future onset of Adisson disase may have various essential practical implications on the management of the disease. Late detection leads to mortality and morbidity which are inked to undiagnosed disease.
Takeaway: Early detection on the progression of Addison disease plays an essential role in mitigating mortality and morbidity linked to late diagnosis or undiagnosed conditions. It is important to utilize effective tools that will better predict the progression of the disease over time.
