Jenny, has recently decided to spend two years as a missionary in a coastal African village. As part of her duties, she will work in the missionary clinic that has recently been established in the village. This clinic will provide routine medical care and a travelling physician and nurse will visit once each week. Upon her arrival, Jenny found that she would be spending most of her time in the clinic since the village had been without routine medical care for the past 2 years. Gradually, she found that she was beginning to call upon her training (both clinical and classroom) and she felt comfortable diagnosing and treating some of the more routine cases. One morning, a mother came in with her five-year-old child. The mother reported that the child had been unable to eat or drink anything for the past day because of vomiting. In addition, her child was experiencing severe diarrhea. Jenny asked the mother if any other family members were exhibiting similar symptoms, to which the mother…

Lydia is a retired nurse. She is 63 years old. As a child she had rheumatic fever. At the age of 34 she had a mitral valve replaced. She is 10% over her ideal body weight. She used to be quite active when she was working, but she has slowed down a lot with retirement. She has noticed bouts of dizziness and sometimes she thought she was close to fainting. Other times her heart seemed to race. She thought that maybe she needed to see a cardiologist and so she set up an appointment for a cardiac evaluation. Her examination included x-rays, EKG, blood pressure measurement, and a full cardiac workup. The results showed a mild pulmonary congestion, an enlarged left atrium and ventricle. Cardiac output was 3.0 L/ min, blood pressure was 101/57, left atrial pressure was 17 mm Hg, and the right ventricular pressure was 44/8 mm Hg. The EKG indicated an atrial arrhythmia and there appeared to be some valvular regurgitation when the cardiologist listened to her heart sounds. Include references…
