Research Proposal
1. Your research questions
The chemical dioxin, otherwise known as “Agent Orange”, was used during the Vietnam conflict, and is still causing serious problems for those who were exposed to it. What is being done to mitigate those problems caused using Agent Orange?
2. Working title
The working title for my project is: “Agent Orange, Then and Now.”
3. A summary of your project. Identify your topic and describe what you will be looking at in terms of the topic? Include some key terms and additional questions that will guide your research.
I will be looking for information about dioxin. Dioxin was a defoliant used during the Vietnam War. Little was known at the time about the affects it would have on those who were exposed to this chemical. Dioxin to this day is still causing birth defects and shortened life spans along with multiple other diseases. Additionally, the United States is spear heading remediation efforts in Vietnam and I would like to learn more about the processes used to clean those areas affected by dioxin.
4. A description of your purpose for working on this project. Why did you choose this topic? What do you hope to learn from this project?
I have chosen to research dioxin because I have several family members who were exposed to it. My uncle was drafted at the age of eighteen and sent to fight in the conflict. Years later, he developed prostate cancer because of his exposure. His time in combat was cut short after receiving a gunshot wound to the head which he survived. Another person close to me, my father, was deployed twice to Vietnam. He spent a considerable amount of time there and was exposed to Agent Orange. As of recently, my father was declared cancer free but only after years of battling esophageal and stomach cancer. I am also curious about the potential birth defects caused to the children of those soldiers who were exposed.
5. A discussion of the key challenges you will face, or you imagine you will face. What concerns do you have regarding the research/project?
Some of the key challenges I think I will face will be finding reliable sources for information. The USA.GOV website provides a good bit of information, but I do think there will be some challenges to overcome when finding information outside of the government website. Although finding numerous sources has proven to be a challenge, the information I have uncovered so far has revealed there will be plenty to write about. I am particularly interested in the removal of the remaining dioxin and what methods are being used in the remediation process. I am also hoping to find information about those companies who have been contracted to clean up the remaining dioxin in Vietnam.

What steps do you take to locate primary and peer-reviewed research articles when performing a literature search?
What resources are available to you to engage in a meaningful and successful literature search?
As you have explored throughout this course, Walden University provides vast resources for student support to ensure success in their academic program of study. When it comes to research and using Library resources, several support mechanisms are available to you as well.
Taking the first step to think about a research topic or area of interest and filtering that topic using a series of keywords and operations will be a fundamental component for performing a literature search in Walden Library’s databases. While the ultimate goal is to produce a set or results that match your search criteria, you must keep in mind that that the quality of the research articles obtained will likely vary. Thus, you must critically examine and analyze the aims of the research produced and how it aligns, confirms, or negates your topic or area of research. As you develop proficiency in this area, you will discover that you can extract content themes and frameworks to enhance future research and the need to identify additional research support.
For this Assignment, consult the Walden Library webinars and resources provided. These resources serve as a general good first step for performing literature searches and engaging with the databases of research available to you. Think about a research topic or area of interest to focus on for this Assignment. Then, search the Walden Library to locate and retrieve peer-reviewed research articles that pertain to your topic or area of interest. 
6-paragraph assignment in which you do the following:

 a 1-pararaph introduction of how you conducted your literature search and the databases consulted in your search in relation to your practice area or area of interest. Be specific and provide examples.
a 1-paragraph summary of each of the articles you have selected (a total of 3 paragraphs).
 1 paragraph that synthesizes the three articles using a scholarly voice.
 a final paragraph in which you discuss the differences between summarizing and synthesizing research. Be specific and provide examples.

Case Study
A 74-year-old African American woman, Ms. Richardson, was brought to the hospital emergency room by the police.  She is unkempt, dirty, and foul-smelling.  She does not look at the interviewer and is apparently confused and unresponsive to most of his questions.  Discuss a pharmacological treatment would you prescribe? Use the clinical guidelines to support the rationale for this treatment.Discuss non-pharmacological treatment would you prescribe?  Use the clinical guidelines to support the rationale for this treatment.She knows her name and address, but not the day of the month. She is unable to describe the events that led to her admission.  
The police reported that they were called by neighbors because Ms. Richardson had been wandering around the neighborhood and not taking care of herself.  The medical center mobile crisis unit went to her house twice but could not get in and presumed she was not home. Finally, the police came and broke into the apartment, where they were met by a snarling German shepherd.  They shot the dog with a tranquilizing gun and then found Ms. Richardson hiding in the corner, wearing nothing but a bra. The apartment was filthy, the floor littered with dog feces.  The police found a gun, which they took into custody. The following day, while Ms. Richardson was awaiting transfer to a medical unit for treatment of her out-of-control diabetes, the psychiatric provider attempted to interview her.  Her facial expression was still mostly unresponsive, and she still didn’t know the month and couldn’t say what hospital she was in.  She reported that the neighbors had called the police because she was “sick,” and indeed she had felt sick and weak, with pains in her shoulder; in addition, she had not eaten for 3 days.  She remembered that the police had shot her dog with a tranquilizer and said the dog was now in “the shop” and would be returned to her when she got home.  She refused to give the name of a neighbor who was a friend, saying, “he’s got enough troubles of his own.” She denied ever being in a psychiatric hospital or hearing voices but acknowledged that she had at one point seen a psychiatrist “near downtown” because she couldn’t sleep.  He had prescribed medication that was too strong, so she didn’t take it.  She didn’t remember the name, so the interviewer asked if it was Thorazine.  She said no, it was “allal.”  ‘Haldol?”, ask the interviewer. She nodded.  

The interviewer was convinced that was the drug, but other observers thought she might have said yes to anything that sounded remotely like it, such as “Elavil.” When asked about the gun, she denied, with some annoyance, that it was real and said it was a toy gun that had been brought to the house by her brother, who had died 8 years ago.  She was still feeling weak and sick, complained of pain in her shoulder, and apparently had trouble swallowing.  She did manage to smile as the team left her bedside.
