NR 507 Week 7 – Recorded Disease Process Presentation Peer Review

You have an excellent presentation. Your presentation is well-detailed so that anyone can Understand. I like the way you explained everything so clearly and precisely. The two criteria that I want to comment on are the definition and the healthcare provider’s implication for prevention. First, let’s define hypertension; you had a well-detailed explanation for it, but I want to complement the information you provided. Hypertension is a chronic disease that has been treated in the primary healthcare system. High blood pressure puts patients at risk for many cardiovascular events, such as heart attack, stroke, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. It is estimated that 30% of our population is affected by high blood pressure. Since 2003, the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force (2018) ” has recommended screening adults greater than 18 years of age for elevated blood pressure” (p. 1). Sometimes, patients do not know the disease process and how to prevent it, which causes the disease to linger around it until it starts attacking some major organs, which later can cause some major issues.

The second criterion I want to emphasize is the healthcare provider’s implication for prevention. The reason why I picked this one is because, in your presentation, you mentioned some great teaching points that the healthcare provider should educate patients about in order to prevent the disease. However, you failed to mention that patients need to be educated on signs and symptoms. I feel that educating our patients on signs and symptoms can help with early interventions. I have patients who are being diagnosed with hypertension and do not know what the disease is. Some patients say they have never heard of it, and they do not know what to look for in order to prevent it or seek medical attention earlier. Again, great presentation.
