Introduction:

As a future Nurse Practitioner, I know I will encounter countless patients whom will

present an array of disease signs and symptoms. While I understand that I cannot be fully and

completely prepared for what I will encounter, I do understand that I must prepare myself as

much as I can. Based on the results from my predictor exam and recounting the information I

have reviewed, I know there are several diseases that need I need to understand better. Therefore,

I will base this paper on those diseases. Furthermore, I will discuss health promotion in areas

that I am less familiar, and I will justify why health promotion is needed in such areas. The last

portion of this paper will consist of presenting the common signs and symptoms patients exhibit

that make it appropriate for screening to be done.

Disease Presentations

HEENT (Mastoiditis, Corneal Abrasion)

Mastoiditis is a bacterial infection affecting the Mastoid Process-more specifically, the

mastoid cells and the mastoid antrum. This infection usually results from an untreated or

inadequate treated Acute Otitis Media. The common organisms causing this infection are:

Haemophilus Influenzae, Streptococcus Pneumoniae, Moraxella Catarrhalis, Staphylococcus

Aureus, Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, some Mycobacterium species and some fungi as well. The

course of this infection begins when the bacteria causing the Acute Otitis Media (AOM) invades

this region causing the air cells to become filled with blood and pus. The increased blood and pus

causes cell to coalesce (fused together) forming abscesses and decreasing circulation. The fusing

together of cells contributes to decreased blood supply to the bone cells leading to cell death

(bone death).
