United States. This is a significant clinical fact for the advance practice nurses as it is one of the most motivating factors for advanced practice nurses to practice based on the best research evidence. Numerous studies have been conducted on the beta-blocker use in patients who have had acute coronary syndrome or events.

They've put her on meds that mostly consist of beta blockers, calcium channel blockers and ACE inhibitors. I had to know the indications to why I have to give this patient the beta blocker.

A suspension culture is when the cells are grown in a sterile, full of supplements, broth. The broth allows the cells to divide and grow easily and will later turn into broth turbid. When culturing…

functioning of an organism” (Comer, 2014). Comer also explains that, “The plaques and tangles that are so plentiful in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients seem to occur when two important proteins start acting in a frenzied manner. Abnormal activity by the beta-amyloid protein is key to the repeated formation of plaques” (2014). Researchers have found that early-onset Alzheimer’s, which is onset before the age of 65, run in families. Personally, I have had one friend of my family get Alzheimer’s…
