before. which statement is most correct?
A. the patient is receiving a double dose of anticoagulants
B. the heparin therapy was ineffective, so the warfarin was started.
C. the heparin provides anticoagulation until therapeutic levels of warfarin are reached.
D. the heparin and warfarin work together synergistically to provide anticoagulation -
Answers✓✓C. the heparin provides anticoagulation until therapeutic levels of warfarin are
reached.
coumadin (warfarin) takes a few days for therapeutic levels to be reached. we may end up
putting a pt on both of these initially to get the anticoagulation under control, and then once the
coumadin levels are okay, the pt will come off of heparin

double bind messages - Answers✓✓Bateson and colleagues (1956) coined the term double-bind
messages.
They are characterized by two or more mutually contradictory messages given by a person in
power or someone attempting to gain or maintain power.
Opting for either choice will result in displeasure of the person in power.
Example: Dr. Shepard asks Dr. Onori to teach one of the topics in nursing research because she
knows Dr. Onori teaches that topic very well. On the day of the lecture, Dr. Onori just informs
Dr. Shepard that he is going to the beach with his family and thus can't teach the topic. Dr.
Shepard looks into the eyes of Dr. Onori and says, okay, that's fine, enjoy your vacation knowing
very well that she has not prepared to teach the research topic for that day. The content from Dr.
Shepard becomes contradictory to Dr. Onori.
the "miracle" question - Answers✓✓a clarifying technique (along with paraphrasing, restating,
reflecting, exploring, and projective questions)
The miracle question is a goal-setting question that helps patients to see what the future would
look like if a particular problem were to vanish.
The question should be asked deliberately and dramatically
Example: "Now, I want to ask you a strange question. Suppose that while you are sleeping
tonight...a miracle happens. The miracle is that the problem that brought you here is solved...
When you wake up tomorrow morning, what will be different that will tell you that a miracle has
happened?"
