Week 2 Discussion Emma Ryan Ihuman. Discussion Question 1 Based on your performance and the expert feedback in your HISTORY collection, describe two missed questions and your understandi... ng of why they were important to collect for this case history. Use specific references from your text to explain . Does she have discharge or bleeding from her ears? I did not ask about this because I had asked about whether the child was tugging at her ears and the Mother stated the child was not showing signs of ear discomfort. Discharge or bleeding is clinically significant because that could lead to a better understanding initially, prior to physical exam, as bleeding discharge from the ears of the purulent type can be a sign of infection. The risk for complications associated with otitis media increases if an acute episode of otitis media persists longer than 2 weeks or if symptoms recur within a 2-to 3-week period (Eaton, 2017). Any new or recent change in medications? Medication histories are important in preventing prescription errors and consequent risks to patients (Fitzgerald, 2009). Discussion Question 2 Based on your performance and the expert feedback in your PHYSICAL EXAM collection, describe two errors in your exam performance or documentation. Use specific references from your text to explain the importance of these findings in correct assessment of this client. ...................................................................CONTINUED.............................................................................................
