ENHT RENAL DEPARTMENT

Presentation & Structure:

Iuliana, the presentation of your concise report was satisfactory and you used headings well.
Remember to provide your word count, however your pages were numbered.
Remember to write in the third person for a piece of work such as this, avoid I / he / she.
Not all your tables had a title and were referred to in your main text.
You could have presented an analysis of your results graphically as a chart.
Some information provided is not needed, you need to ask yourself the relevance of points made.

Breadth / Depth and Integration of Literature:
Your reference citation is too limited for this piece of work, more evidence is required, as a guide for this piece of work would expect to see a minimum of 10 different citations.
Your opening paragraph contains a quote as the phrase has not been rewritten – this is a direct quote and needs to be presented as such.
Your NICE citations (pages 2 & 3) are not listed; more than two authors are cited as et al and check date (Gorwitz); and check author spelling (Pittet).
Avoid ‘et al’ in your reference list, all authors are expected to be listed and ensure listings are by surname.

Content / Knowledge:
Iuliana your audit aim / standard is appropriate and you have attempted a rationale, why is infection such a risk for our patients?

Your standard is reasonably written, you could consider identification of a time frame as part of your measurable criteria within your standard. But do take care, ‘dialysis’ includes peritoneal and home HD – are these reflected in your data collection? Make sure you are explicit.

Some elements of the audit cycle have been addressed or alluded to. What was the total patient population? What type of sample of the patient population have you used?
You have not provided any information on your data collection tool. How did you develop your data collection tool and did you conduct a pilot, what would have been the benefit of this?

Analysis / Critical Evaluation and/or Reflection:
You have analysed your results related to your identified standard and you have identified actions to improve practice, however how do you know that additional training is required?

What have you learnt about conducting an audit, would you do anything differently next time?  what do you mean by this?

With limited methodology, no data collection tool and limited cited evidence you have not been successful on this occasion.

Assignment 1: Race and Ethnicity Movie Analysis

Objective
To integrate your understanding of Module 8 lecture content into an analysis of a documentary movie.

Points Possible: 30 points

Overview

For this assignment you will choose to view one of two documentaries. It is up to you which you choose, and you will only be required to view one of them. After reading/viewing all of the lectures from the race and ethnicity section of this module you will evaluate one of the two movies below using that information. Your analysis should be at least 3 pages (1,000 words) in length.

Movie option 1: A World of Ideas: Maya Lin
The first documentary is about Maya Lin, the designer of the Vietnam War Memorial. In this movie she discusses her experience as an Asian American artist, her childhood as the daughter of immigrants, the racism she experienced when the media found out that an Asian American had designed the Vietnam War Memorial, and her own views on how race and ethnicity fit into the American identity. Lin talks about these issues mainly from her own personal perspective. One of the links below should work for you to view the movie.

Link to view the video by logging in through the LPC Library. If you use this link you will need to log in as prompted, then search for “Maya Lin World of Ideas” in the search box.. The first film that comes up will be “World of Ideas: Maya Lin.” That is the film you need to watch.
Transcript to the Maya Lin movie. Here is a link to the complete transcript of the movie. Not very exciting, but if you can’t access the move it will do in a pinch. It is several pages long, so be sure to scroll through the complete program: http://www.pbs.org/becomingamerican/ap_pjourneys_transcript5_print.html
Movie option 2: A Victim of Two Cultures: Richard Rodriguez

In this movie author and American culture analyst Richard Rodriguez talks about his own experience growing up in America with a Mexican-American background. He discusses the plight of Latinos and minorities in general in the American experience, how his religion connects him to his heritage, how he forms his own identity by integrating parts of the Mexican and parts of the American identity, and why he has chosen to embrace American culture and the American dream. His analysis is mostly from his own perspective, but he sometimes (a bit uncomfortably for my tastes) generalizes about his culture and the experience of other minority groups.

Link to view the video by logging in through the LPC Library. If you use this link you will need to log in as prompted, then search for “Richard cultures” in the search box at the top. You’ll want to view the video: “Richard Rodriguez: A Victim of Two Cultures: Richard Rodriguez.” That is the film you need to watch.

Steps for completing the assignment:
Make sure you have read or viewed each of the lectures in the race and ethnicity section. It is a good idea to take notes because they will be useful for you as you compose your essay for this assignment.
If you haven’t done so already, choose which film you would like to view, the one on Richard Rodriguez or the one on Maya Lin. As you watch the movie, take notes on your observations as to how the ideas in the film relate to the ideas from the lectures in this module.
Now you are ready to compose your essay linking the ideas presented in the film to the ideas in the lectures. Your essay should have these sections:

Section 1: Introduction. Start your essay with a short discussion about your reaction to the ideas of Maya Lin or Richard Rodriguez. What were your impressions and overall reactions?

Section 2: Agreements and Objections. In this sections discuss the thoughts presented by Lin or Rodriguez that you appreciated the most and also the ideas that you agreed with the least. Be sure to go beyond just mentioning what those ideas were; you should also give an explanation for why you agreed or disagreed.

Section 3: The American Farmer. In this section discuss a few of the ideas of the American Farmer, and say how you think that these ideas relate to Maya Lin or Richard Rodriguez. Here you might point out places where the American Farmer and Lin or Rodriguez are in agreement or disagreement. Or you might think of it in terms of how the American Farmer might react to the ideas of Lin or Rodriguez, or conversely how you think Rodriguez or Lin might react to the ideas presented in the American Farmer. Be sure to get very specific here and reference ideas found in the readings and the movies.

Section 4: The American Dreamer. Compare and contrast Mukherjee’s essay “The American Dreamer” with the ideas of Lin or Rodriguez. Follow the same basic pattern that you used in Section 3.

Section 5: Martin Luther King Jr. and Civil Rights. Apply the ideas presented in the lecture on King and the Civil Rights Movement to the ideas of Lin or Rodriguez. You might ask yourself questions such as:

How might Lin or Rodriquez actions and attitudes fit into the events on the civil rights timeline?
Looking back at the ideas in King’s speech, how do you think he would react to the ideas presented by Lin or Rodriguez in the movie?
Or, conversely, how do you think Rodriguez or Lin would respond to the ideas of King?

Spectrophotometer

Evaluation of results against a commercial spectrophotometer

Aim
The aim of this part of the laboratory is to check the accuracy of results produced by the custom device developed during the previous sessions against a commercial spectrophotometer (Model: Novaspec 4049).

Method guidelines
1. Turn the Novaspec 4049 spectrophtometer ON using the switch at the back of the device.

2. A ‘CAL’ sign will appear on the left hand side screen. Wait until the calibration is complete.

3. When the device is ready, adjust the wavelength selection by pressing the ‘+’ and
‘-‘ buttons. Set this to 600 nm.

4. Select the %T ordinate mode.

5. Insert the cuvette containing water into the sample compartment. To do this, lift the lid of the sample compartment and then insert the cuvette into the inlet. Once inside, close the lid to prevent interference from ambient light.

6. Press the ‘Set Ref’ button. This should reset the displayed reading to • Once reset, remove the water- containing cuvette from the sample compartment.

7. Then, place into the sample compartment the cuvette containing solution A. Record the displayed reading.

8. Repeat step 7 for solutions B, C and D.

9. Adjust the wavelength selection to 510 nm.

10. Repeat steps 4-8.

11. Calculate the extinction coefficient for solutions A (CrNO3) and B (CoNO3) at 600 nm and at 510 nm. Complete the following table:

12. Calculate the concentrations of CrNO3 and CoNO3 in solutions C and D. Complete the following table:

CrNO3 in (C) CoNO3 in (C)
[CrNO 3] C = M [CoNO 3] C = M
CrNO3 in (D) CoNO3 in (D)
[CrNO 3] D = M [CoNO 3] D= M

13. Calculate the percentage error in the extinction coefficient and concentration values found using your device against those obtained using the commercial spectrophotometer.
     M1: measurements from your device.
     M2: measurements from spectrophotometer.

14. Show all your workings in your final report

15. If you have time, reduce errors by making improvements to your system, and/or if available, try to connect your spectrophotometer to a data acquisition card and start experimenting with a basic data acquisition VI in Lab VIEW.
