Delivering bad news to patients would be a challenge yet there are communication tips to practice on how to communicate with patients in delivering bad news. First is to build a relationship. This can be done by establishing rapport to have a foundation when needed to deliver a bad news. Second is to demonstrate empathy. One can comfort the patient by putting one in the patient's shoes. Third, speak in plain language. This is done by saying words in vernacular for patient to understand and not in medical terms. Fourth is to understand the client's perspective by clarifying of things he or she meant and if both are on the same page. Fifth, be sure to be available for more interaction. This means if patients would ask more questions as an MA one should be readily available. The one thing though that one should never say to a patient is it won't hurt at all as we know that is not true when receiving bad news.

A patient has been receiving heparin while in the hospital to treat deep vein thromboses and will be discharged home with a pres
Nesterboy [21]

The correct answer is C; "Enoxaparin is more cost-effective than heparin."

Further Explanation:

The patient will need to have further teaching on this statement. He/she is prescribed Enoxaparin because that is what they specifically need for their treatment and not Heparin. The Enoxaparin is made so that is available for low dosing and has a higher bioavailability. This means that the doctor does not have to monitor for routine coagulation on patient.

The patient can be given pamphlets and more in depth reading material on the medication and the reasons they must take it.

The overriding problem with both theories of muscle growth, hypertrophy and hyperplasia, is that
Kobotan [32]
So I’m a researcher in muscle protein metabolism. I can right out tell you that muscle hypertrophy exists. That’s is muscle fibres increasing in size. However, in humans muscle hyperplasia (the addition of new fibres) has not been demonstrated. It has in birds but not in humans. So neither of those responses are best. Please report back to your teacher and report that question as illogical. 1) muscle growth is not difficult to study in humans. We can use ultra sounds, MRIs to visually see how much muscle has grown and we can calculate muscle protein synthesis rates (how much protein is being synthesized into muscle and thus priming growth). 2) muscle hypertrophy is universally accepted as an occurring phenomenon. Look at body builders for extreme examples, and looks at studies published in the scientific journal called Nature (most reputable scientific journal ). Clearly a bodybuilders muscles are larger compared to the average individual. And we can say for certain it’s due to larger fibre sizes not the addition of fibres. 3) look up Dr. Nicholas Burd, Dr. Dan Moore, Dr. Stuart Phillips. All reputable scientists (dr. Stuart Phillips being the leading expert in muscle protein metabolism). 4) why does the Acceptance from the fitness community even matter when the experts tell you it exists. The Fitness community doesn’t really have a grasp of the molecular part of the muscle to explain or accept hypertrophy as fact. So, I apologize but I have no answer for you because none of those options are correct. Please educate your instructor.
