Question 1
As a nurse practitioner, I will research on hypertension as well as the problems associated with the management of hypertension in Asian women population. According to Ishikawa et al. (2010), hypertension is a blood pressure issue that is a cause of cardiovascular diseases, which are fatal. rating among the Asian women as compared to other white women (Midha et al., 2010). I need to know the reasons for this as well as developing a possible solution.
Question 2
Most of the work in the literature is obtained from nursing scholarly literature found in medical libraries. These scholarly materials provided information on the causes, effects, reasons for prevalence and possible solutions to the escalating cases of hypertension in Asian women (Sheng et al., 2013). Nonetheless, some data is from the internet as it was not readily available in the medical libraries, including tables that shoe the prevalence nature and control of hypertension among women in the different regions of Asia.
Question 3
advised to change their lifestyles by avoiding stuff like alcohol and given medication that helps control their blood pressure (Zheng et al., 2010). Use of Electronic Health Record (EHR) tools that will tackle the situation applying three interventions is an ultimate innovation towards hypertension cases. These interventions will include identification of high-risk patients through registration, recommending the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH diet), and a protocol of self-monitoring by the patients through automation within the HER.
