Assignment Assignment 2: Case Study Analysis and Care Plan Creation
Click here to download and analyze the case study for this week. Create a wholistic care plan for disease prevention health promotion and acute care of the patient in the clinical case. Your care plan should be based on current evidence and nursing standards of care.
Visit the online library and research for current scholarly evidence (no older than 5 years) to support your nursing actions. In addition consider visiting government sites such as the CDC WHO AHRQ Healthy People 2020. Provide a detailed scientific rationale justifying the inclusion of this evidence in your plan.
Next determine the ICD-10 classification (diagnoses). The International Classification of Diseases Ninth Revision Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) is the official system used in the United States to classify and assign codes to health conditions and related information.

The care plan example provided here is meant only as a frame of reference for you to build your care plan. You are expected to develop a comprehensive care plan based on your assessment diagnosis and advanced nursing interventions. Reflect on what you have learned about care plans through independent research and peer discussions and incorporate the knowledge that you have gained into your patients care plan.
Format
Your care plan should be formatted as a Microsoft Word document. Follow the current APA edition style. Your paper should be 2 to 4 pages double-spaced and in 12pt font.

Advanced Practice Nursing Intervention Plan
Coronary artery disease is the primary cause of death for both men and women in
the United States. CAD includes acute MI angina pectoris atherosclerotic cardiovascular
disease and any chronic ischemic heart disease. There are modifiable and nonmodifiable
risk factors that lead to heart disease. The factors that the patient cannot control is his
family history his age and gender. The modifiable risk factors that the patient has
control over is his smoking lack of physical exercise diet obesity and stress level
(Buttaro Terry Trybulski Bailey & Cook 2013 pg. 518-519).
Stable angina is precipitated by exertion and is typically relieved by rest. The
demand or reduction in myocardial oxygen supply are the factors that cause coronary
ischemia. There is three factors that determine the amount of oxygen needed; the heart
rate systemic blood pressure and left ventricular wall tension. The heart rate and blood
pressure influence the oxygen requirements because both determine the myocardial
workload. Activities and increased metabolic demands that increase the workload of the
heart increases that oxygen requirements and causes angina and ischemia (Buttaro Terry
Trybulski Bailey & Cook 2013 pg. 520).
A.H. condition is complicated because he has comorbid diseases that will require
him to be followed by a cardiologist. The amount of follow up visits will be determined
by the cardiologist. The clinic that the patient uses as primary care will follow the
cardiologist recommendations. The patient will require management of his disease
processes and medications which the clinic is able to provide. A.H. will be provided with
nitroglycerin tablets and education will be provided on the use of these tablets. On the
ADVANCED PRACTICE NURSING CASE STUDY WEEK ONE 9
visit the patient will be asked about the frequency of his episodes the severity of pain
and if he is using his nitro tablets. The patient will receive education on angina and the
warning signs of a heart attack (Buttaro Terry Trybulski Bailey & Cook 2013).
The patient will continue with his prescribed medications because the use of
calcium channel blockers beta blockers and nitroglycerin help reduce the episodes of
chest pain (Alaeddini 2014). This assigned treatment plan will also benefit the patient is
his management of hypertension. The patient will be provided with information and help
from the CDC website on smoking cessation. The patient primary care physician will
focus on diet exercise smoking and management of his present illnesses. The patient
will receive lab work at his appointment to assess cholesterol levels and diabetes control
(Alaeddini 2014). The patient was provided with resources in his community that will
help him with his medication cost diet planning and exercise (Buttaro Terry Trybulski
