Comprehensive Case Study on COPD, Heart Failure, Hypertension, and Diabetes Mellitus
Review the following case study and complete the questions that follow. For this assignment, write your responses to each question as one

narrative rather than separating your responses by question number. Include an introduction and a conclusion. Submit your answers using APA

format, well-written sentences, and detailed explanations. Your analysis must be scientifically sound, necesary, and sufficient.
Case Study

M.K. is a 45-year-old female, measuring 5’5” and weighs 225 lbs. M.K. has a history of smoking about 22 years along with a poor diet. She has a

history of Type II diabetes mellitus along with primary hypertension. M.K. has recently been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis. Her current

symptoms include chronic cough, more severe in the mornings with sputum, light-headedness, distended neck veins, excessive peripheral edema, and

increase urination at night. Her current medications include Lotensin and Lasix for the hypertension along with Glucophage for the Type II

diabetes mellitus.
The following are lab findings that are pertinent to this case:

Vitals

BP =158/98 mm Hg

CBC
Hematocrit=57%

Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c)=7.3 %

Arterial Blood Gas Assessment
PaCO₂ = 52 mm Hg
PaO₂=48 mm Hg

Lipid Panel
Cholesterol=242 mg/dL
HDL=32 mg/dL
LDL=173 mg/dL
Triglycerides=184.mg/dL

1) What clinical findings correlate with M.K.’s chronic bronchitis? What type of treatment and recommendations would be appropriate for M.K.’s

chronic bronchitis?
2) Which type of heart failure would you suspect with M.K.? Explain the pathogenesis of how this type of heart failure develops.
3) According to the B.P. value, what stage of hypertension is M. K. experiencing? Explain the rationale for her current medications for her

hypertension. Also, discuss the impact of this disease in the U.S. population.
4) According to the lipid panel, what other condition is M.K. at risk for? According to this case study, what other medications should be given

and why? What additional findings correlate for both hypertension and Type II diabetes mellitus?
5) Interpret the lab value for HbA1c and explain the rationale for this value in relation to normal/abnormal body function?

Diversity and Ethics Paper on Global Obesity
We require you to select a research topic that has diversity and ethics “hooks” because we want to efficiently assess your competency in global understanding and ethics within the context of a single research project. You’ve seen Joe Student choose Water Pollution as his global issue, then through his literature review identify access to clean water as a struggle that especially affects disenfranchised people and is not always addressed equitably by the agencies controlling that access. Confronted with the requirement to add an ethical perspective, he decides to look at how the agencies communicate critical information to those affected and what ethical principles they use to set water policy. You don’t hear from Joe again until he’s putting together his final paper, but here’s a hint: he finds that the way these agencies select their policies and practices usually benefits themselves and the people who can afford to pay for superior access to clean water, leaving vulnerable people still insecure about their own access.
Instructions:
Your literature review has helped you to refine your contemporary global issue problem statement and learn where the themes and disagreements lie. Now, you will zero in on some aspect of that issue that affects vulnerable and disenfranchised groups differently from the way it affects dominant cultural groups. Continuing to add sources as necessary, you will analyze and synthesize the findings from the scholarly literature, asking how these groups have historically been, and currently are, impacted by the policies, decisions, and actions of others; what ethical principles have driven these policies, decisions, and actions; and what strategies and solutions the different parties have come up with. You will examine the issue from multiple perspectives, including your own cultural background and experiences and those of impacted individuals and groups.
You will use the lens of at least two ethical theories to evaluate the potential equity of the different strategies and solutions. You will recommend areas for further study that might result in more equitable treatment of those vulnerable and disenfranchised groups. Your recommendation must be supported by well-reasoned evidence from scholarly research. Remember: you are not to propose solutions at this point, just lay out the possibilities!
The final Diversity/Ethics scaffold paper will be 2,000-2,500 words, excluding title page and references.
There are many ways to write up your research findings at this stage. Below is a list of aspects of the research that you must include in some way:
*Identify the groups of people around the world who may be adversely affected by the issue, and also the dominant groups who are not
*Situate your own cultural perspective relative to the issue and these groups
*Use Hofstede’s cultural dimensions theory in some way as you analyze the diverse cultural perspectives
*Address issues such as ingroup favoritism, intergroup bias, etc. (see the list of topics in The Global Workplace, Part 1 in Module 3)
*Describe the ethical issues involved in addressing the problem, being sure to draw on at least two ethical theories (see the list of topics in The Global Workplace, Part 2 in Module 4)
*Analyze the decision making process and action plans that have been tried
*Examine evidence for social responsibility in these processes and plans
*Identify the policies and practices presented in the research findings that might lead to equitable solutions (and which seem unlikely to do so).
*Then, take a step back! Don’t pick a solution yet. Let this portion of your paper season, and wait for feedback from your instructor and your peers. You will be expected to present your proposed solution in detail in the last segment of your final paper.
Sound complicated? Remember, you’re building on the solid foundation you developed in the Literature Review, and applying knowledge of diversity issues and ethical theories to your problem. If you’re having difficulty understanding what we mean by ‘ethical underpinnings” you will find it helpful to review the Ethics Resources section of the Assignment Support Resources document.

Marketing and Sales Management (Fast Track year 1)
Assignment details Individual Essay Guidelines
Purpose
Each week you are required, as a group, to carry out research that is related to the product and the
company of your choice (group assignment: marketing plan). The purpose of this is to help you
begin your project, to gauge your progress and to provide feedback, so you are working towards the
right direction.
Resulting from this group research is an individual essay, which is based on a topic chosen by you
from your research.
The purpose of this essay is to determine whether you have understood the topic chosen and if you
are able to apply the theory related to it to your particular product and company.
Essay
Each essay should include at least some of the following points (but not limited to them):
1. Background of the company.
2. What issue (for example, globalisation vs. localisation, the 4Ps, perhaps in particular you can
discuss in depth about the product, pricing, promotion or distribution strategy, branding,
etc.) you will be discussing in your essay. Specify why this topic deserves discussion.
3. The theories relating to the issue.
4. The current situation at the company .
5. If your topic is not about segmentation, targeting and positioning, you need to mention who
your targets are for your particular product and how you intend to position it – there is no
need to analyse it. Just a brief overview and justification is enough.
6. Discuss the current practice of the company. How does this match with your own
understanding of the theories relating to your chosen topic?
7. Conclusion and recommendations (for further research for example).

ethical offence. This will be reported to the examination board and could result in disciplinary action
from the Amsterdam School of International Business (AMSIB).
