Explain how standard development organizations impact your health care setting.

Health Data Standards DiscussionWhat are health data standards and how do they relate to your role as an informaticist? Health data standards are the agreed upon representations of nursing data. From the coding of medical processes to documentation formats and terminology definitions, health data standards help to align nursing language. Being knowledgeable in health data standards is imperative to the data aggregation and informatics system selection process. It is the informaticist’s responsibility to not only understand the nursing domains of each standard, but also to be educated on the standards development organizations (SDO) that create, maintain, and approve these standards.In this Discussion, you explore one health data standard of your choosing. For the purposes of this Discussion, do not focus on the standardization of nursing terminologies, as you will examine those in next week’s Discussion.To prepare:Review the health data standards presented in this week’s Learning Resources.How does each provide a framework to align the terminologies and data sets used in health care settings? Reflect upon your current health care setting.Does your setting currently use any of the standards outlined by a specific organization? Why?How might standards impact the documentation processes of your setting? Furthermore, which standards might most apply to you in your work as a nurse?Note: If you are not currently working in a health care setting, select a setting with which you are familiar for this Discussion.By Day 3Post a description of the health data standards(1 or 2) your setting(VHA “Veterans Health Administration) uses and how these standards impact documentation and your specific nursing role (ICU RN Nurse).

Answer all the questions in the prompt, and read any resources that are required to complete the discussion properly. In order to satisfy the posting requirements for the week, complete your initial post by Day 3 (Thursday) and your other posts by Day 7 (Monday). We recommend that you get into the discussion early and spread out your posts over the course of the week. Reply to your classmates and instructor. Attempt to take the conversation further by examining their claims or arguments in more depth or responding to the posts that they make to you. Keep the discussion on target, and analyze things in as much detail as you can.The topic of this week is deductive reasoning. Accordingly, in this discussion your task is to create a deductively valid argument for your position (the same position that you defended in the Week One discussion). Prepare Icon Prepare: To prepare to respond to this prompt, make sure to read carefully over the required portions of Chapter 3 and Chapter 4. View the deLaplante (2013) video What Is a Valid Argument? as well as the other required media for the week. For more guidance about how to construct a valid argument for a controversial position, review the Constructing a Valid Argument video and the document How to Construct a Valid Deductive Argument . Based on the sources, create a deductively valid argument for the position you defended in the Week One discussion. Reflect: To make your argument deductively valid, you will need to make sure that there is no possible way that your premises could be true and your conclusion false. Your premises must lead logically to the truth of your conclusion. Make sure that your argument is sound, that is in addition to being valid, make sure that the premises are true as far as you can tell. If your argument is invalid or if it has a false premise, revise it until you get an argument that you can stand behind. Write: Identify the components and structure of your argument by presenting your deductively valid argument in standard form, and explain how your conclusion follows from your premises. Guided Response: Read the arguments presented by your classmates, and analyze the reasoning that they have presented. In particular, if you believe that their argument is invalid, explain a way in which it would be possible for the premises to be true and the conclusion false. If you believe that their argument has a false premise, explain why a reasonable person might take it to be false. Finally, see if you can help them to improve their argument. How can they alter their premises so that all of them are true? What might they change in order to make their argument valid? Discussion 2YOU CAN CHOOSE ANY ONE THE HAVE A GOOD DEDUCTIVE REASONINGWe have learned this week about deductive reasoning, including what it takes for an argument to be valid. This discussion allows us to get more practice with the concept through making arguments valid. You will see a list of arguments here. These arguments are not presented in standard form, and each is missing a premise that would be necessary to make it valid. Your tasks will be to put the argument into standard form and add the missing premise that would validly link the premises to the conclusion.Prepare: To prepare to respond to this prompt, reread the section from Chapter 2 of our book titled “Extracting Arguments in Standard form,” all required portions of Chapters 3 and 4, as well as the guidance and required media for this week. Further assistance in the filling missing premises can be gained from watching the video Constructing Valid Arguments.Reflect: Look at the list of argument options below. Choose an argument that has not yet been chosen by any of your classmates. Think through the reasoning and determine what premise is (or premises are) missing that would be needed to make the argument valid. You might also consider challenging yourself by choosing from the more difficult examples in the list (at the bottom).Choose from the following list of argument options.1. Flipper is a dolphin, so Flipper is a mammal.2. Football is dumb because it is a waste of time.3. If he loved you he would have shown up on time with flowers. He must not love you.4. All mammals bear live young, so dragons are not mammals.5. Abortion kills a human being, therefore abortion is wrong.6. He broke the record for rushing yards in a game on that last play. Therefore he holds the record.7. He won the election. So he will be the next governor.8. He won’t go to the wedding since he doesn’t like mushy stuff and weddings are mushy.9. I can’t go to the movies with you – I have a test tomorrow and I have to study.10. Mike loves pickles. Pickles come from cucumbers. Therefore Mike loves cucumbers.11. You shouldn’t go out with that guy. He rides a motorcycle and goes to bars.12. Capital punishment is wrong because it is killing and it doesn’t save anyone’s life.13. You shouldn’t use drugs because they are addictive and can ruin people’s lives.14. To fix your care you will need money. However, to have money you have to have money. It appears that you need to get a job.15. To go to the movie you have to have a ticket. To buy a ticket you must pay money. Thus, to go the movie you must pay money.16. If you don’t do your chores then you can’t have any dessert. You really like dessert, so you will certainly do your chores.17. You will get an A if you study hard and always come to class. You came to class every time and studied. You are bound to get an A.18. Julie is allergic to gluten. So she won’t be having any bread.19. Only women can have babies, so women are more important to the survival of the species.20. If I wear that cologne then women will love me. I bought that cologne, so women are going to love me.21. I can’t go to the party because there will be alcohol there, and I am a Mormon.22. You shouldn’t force me to wear a seat belt because that would violate my rights.23. In order to buy a car you will need money. But to have money you need to get a job. But to go to a job you will need to be able to get to work. So you will not be able to buy a car.24. Capital punishment kills a human being. It is wrong to kill a human being except in self-defense. So capital punishment is wrong.25. You shouldn’t tell someone to do something unless you would be willing to do it yourself. You’ve never gone to war. So you shouldn’t vote for others to go to war.26. If you talk to Mike about politics then he will yell at you. If he yells at you then you will be hurt and it will damage your friendship. Therefore, you shouldn’t talk to Mike about politics.27. Either the maid or the butler did it. For the butler to have done it he would have had to have been at the mansion yesterday. The butler was away all day yesterday. So, the maid did it.28. If the maid was guilty then she would have had to been at the scene during the crime. However, she was seen a mile away only minutes before the crime, and she has no car. She must be innocent.29. It is always wrong to kill a human being unless it is necessary to save somebody’s life. Abortion kills a human being. So abortion is wrong unless the mother’s life is in danger due to the pregnancy. 30. Government intervention is justified if it is necessary to protect the welfare of the people and does not violate anyone’s constitutional rights. Therefore, government intervention is justified in this specific case because it is necessary to protect the welfare of the people.Write: In your original post, be sure to include the entire original argument, in standard form, with your own added premise (or premises) in bold. After you have presented the argument, include a description of how the conclusion logically follows from the premises. Include also a reflection on whether it seems that the missing premise(s) is likely to be true (in the context). Would there be any way to fix the argument so that it is valid and has all true premises? Guided Responses: Read the reflections of your classmates and analyze the arguments that they have presented, paying close attention to how the conclusion follows from the premises. In particular, if you believe that their argument is still technically invalid, explain a way in which it would be possible for the premises to be true and the conclusion false. If you think that their argument is valid, then address the question of whether the premises all seem to be true and how it might be improved. If someone presents such a suggestion for your own argument, then respond by attempting to revise the argument so that it is valid and has all true premises.

which aspects of the essay sound wrong to you? Does the evidence persuade you?

u Exercise #1: Argument and AnalysisThe purpose of this first exercise is to encourage you to practice an open-minded but cautious way of engaging with the claims of other scholars. ? For this exercise you will turn a curious yet skeptical gaze onto one of the essays that you have read for this progression. First, even if you have reservations about the author’s ideas, make sense of her/his argument by explaining it in your own words. What is the writer’s position? What are the essential claims here? What evidence does the author offer for these claims? Next play devil’s advocate: which aspects of the essay sound wrong to you? Does the evidence persuade you? Which assumptions or conclusions strike you as problematic or unreasonable? Manuscript Notes: Your response should be two pages and calls for MLA documentation. Avoid large block quotations and use this exercise as an opportunity to refine your ability to weave together short quotations, paraphrases, and your own prose.

write 1–2 pages (a) describing at least one potential research design you could use, (b) the strengths and limitations of that design selection, and (c) the rationale for your selection

Complete the Week 7 Discussion before completing this Assignment.Research designs and methods are not created equal. Each design and method has its strengths and limitations. True experimental research designs, for example, tend to have higher levels of validity compared to ex post facto designs. Once you decide on your research design this week and the method, which you will cover in Week 8, it is important to evaluate limitations of each and consider how you will attempt to prevent or minimize them in your study.Either determining research questions or the research design might come first; most likely, you will circle back from one to the other until they are aligned and one flows logically from the other. It is necessary to have both in place before deciding on your methodology.To prepare for this Assignment, review the Learning Resources for the week. Your research design represents the structure of your study. In other words, the research design includes (a) elements of treatment; and (b) the number, type, relationship, and strategies to control the variables you are studying. It also includes (c) the number and type of individuals or groups in your sample. Finally, the research design includes (d) the measurements; (e) sampling methods; (f) data collection time frame; and (g) setting (Walden University, 2010). Research methods are used to carry out research designs; methods fall under two broad categories: (a) Quantitative (e.g., experimsental, quasi-experimental) and (b) qualitative (e.g., case study, grounded theory, ethnography) (Trochim & Land, 1982). More on that in Week 8.Again, your problem statement and research questions will help you determine your research design, and your research design will help determine your research method. In this Assignment, you will select a research design and examine its appropriateness for your potential research.In your Discussion assignment, you have posted at least two research questions. In this Application Assignment, using the required readings and media resources on research design, write 1–2 pages (a) describing at least one potential research design you could use, (b) the strengths and limitations of that design selection, and (c) the rationale for your selection: Explain why it would be appropriate based on your problem statement and research questions. Be specific.The latter will become part of your Prospectus section on the nature of the study, together with your chosen methodology.Support your Application Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are asked to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course.
