Instructions
In this week's lesson, you learned about the U.S. Census Bureau's most recent racial and ethnic categories. For this assignment, consider the racial and ethnic categories used in the 2010 Census with the four racial, ethnic, and gender categories used in the 1790 Census: Free white males, free white females, all other free persons, slaves (Pew Research Center, 2015). Analyze the concepts of race, ethnicity, and gender as social constructs, just as sociologists do, by addressing the following:
Explain how you might have been categorized by the 1790 Census and how you would have been categorized by the 2010 Census.
Compare and contrast the two potential categorizations and explain how this exercise shows that the concepts of race, ethnicity, and even gender change over time. Most importantly, explain how this exercise shows that the concepts of race, ethnicity, and gender are social constructs.
Determine and describe what ethnic, racial, and/or gender categories, if any, would be best, in your view, for the 2020 Census or the 2030 Census, to most accurately show the diversity of the U.S. population. What categories would be best to reveal the segments of the U.S. population most vulnerable to racial, ethnic, and/or gender inequalities or discrimination? What categories could be listed in the 2020 Census or the 2030 Census that might best educate the U.S. population on differences between race and ethnicity? Explain your decisions.
Include headings for each of the three main sections of the paper:
What the Census Might Have Called Me
Social Constructs
Better Future Census Categories
Each of the three main sections of your paper must contain scholarly support in the form of quotes or paraphrases with respective citations from assigned reading (the textbook/lesson) and the outside scholarly source that you identify on your own.

Presentation
Summary of Issues and Proposed Changes
Overview
Note: This assignment is the fourth in a series of 4 assignments on the same topic, due in Weeks 2, 5, 8, and 10. The assignments build upon each other.
As described in the assignments due in Weeks 2, 5, and 8, you wrote two articles (Parts 1 and 2) as if you were an investigative reporter who has been assigned to research important issues (ethnic, racial, gender, or class) that are affecting people in a local area, workplace, or specific part of the world. The articles are for a major publication (magazine or newspaper). Your goal was to provide both an in-depth analysis of and put a human face on an issue. After publication, your editor has asked that you provide a summary of your articles using Google Slides or PowerPoint for a meeting of the National Association of Journalists, so the members can determine if the series should win one of its top three prizes for investigative reporting.
Requirements
Develop a 10–12 slide presentation in which you:
Revise the ideas and concepts from Parts 1 and 2 of your articles, based on your professor's feedback, to include the ideas in your presentation as needed.
In addition to posting to the discussion board, submit the presentation to the assignment location to receive credit.
Your slide deck should:
Introduce the topic area with a quote, question, and/or statistic, along with an overview and a thesis statement. (Grab the audience’s interest.)
Highlight 3–5 major historical factors (social events/attitudes, wars, laws, economy, political environment, et cetera) in the past 50–100 years that have contributed to the current issue(s)/problems for this topic area.
Highlight 3–5 major current issues/problems (economic, social, political, legal, et cetera).
Describe 1–2 groups of people affected by the issue/problem, including 1–2 quotes and/or paraphrased comments from the people affected.
Propose 2–3 changes (economic, social, political, legal, et cetera) that could possibly improve the situation.
Highlight 2–3 likely challenges (economic, social, political, legal, et cetera) to achieving the proposed change(s).
Provide a brief logical response to each of the challenges.
Highlight 2–3 possible benefits (economic, social, political, legal, et cetera) that could be realized following the proposed change(s).
Include 2–3 thought-provoking questions to which the audience should be asked to respond
Evidence Based practice
Healthcare organizations continually seek to optimize healthcare performance. For years, this approach was a three-pronged one known as the Triple Aim, with efforts focused on improved population health, enhanced patient experience, and lower healthcare costs.
More recently, this approach has evolved to a Quadruple Aim by including a focus on improving the work life of healthcare providers. Each of these measures are impacted by decisions made at the organizational level, and organizations have increasingly turned to EBP to inform and justify these decisions.
To Prepare:
Read the articles by Sikka, Morath, & Leape (2015); Crabtree, Brennan, Davis, & Coyle (2016); and Kim et al. (2016) provided in the Resources.
Reflect on how EBP might impact (or not impact) the Quadruple Aim in healthcare.
Consider the impact that EBP may have on factors impacting these quadruple aim elements, such as preventable medical errors or healthcare delivery.
To Complete:
Write a brief analysis (no longer than 2 pages) of the connection between EBP and the Quadruple Aim.
Your analysis should address how EBP might (or might not) help reach the Quadruple Aim, including each of the four measures of:
Patient experience
Population health
Costs
Work life of healthcare providers

Von Willebrand's disease
Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the most common inherited bleeding disorder with 1 in 20,000 people being affected (Favaloro, 2017). The disease is caused by a lack of the Von Willebrand factor (VWF), a clotting factor that has multiple to functions: being a carrier for coagulation factor 8 (FVIII) and allowing platelets to clump and aggregate (Hubert, & VanMeter, 2018). The disease three subtypes, one to three with three being most severe. Type one is indicated by VWF levels less than 50IU/dL and type 3 with undetectable VWF levels (Echahdi et al., 2017). Men and women are both equally affected by VWD however women can be faced with additional complications due to menstruation and childbirth (Govorov et al., 2016).
Purpose
Post-partum hemorrhage (PPH) can be a major complication of childbirth. Studies have shown a significant increase in the incidence of PPH in women with VWD compared to those without the disease (Govorov et al., 2016). The major purpose of the article was to investigate the incidence of PPH in women with VWD and examine how PPH incidence correlates to each subtype of VWD. The levels of VWF and FVIII during pregnancy and hemostatic drug treatment before and after delivery are also examined in this study.
The discipline of the literature review
The article discipline can be classified under clinical hematology. The researchers studied the lab results of patients to verify the existence of a deficiency in the Von Willebrand factor. The research explores the if hematologic treatments help individuals affected with VWD decrease the incidence of PPH, all hematologic issues, further exemplifying that this study is under the hematologic discipline.
Gaps and issues
Govorov et al. (2016) noted that collected data from the study were insufficient in making comparisons of different subgroups within the study. To make comparisons getting more people of each VDW subtype would have been beneficial. With a rare disease like VWD, a multi-center study could have provided more information. Obtaining information on maternal blood loss accurately also proved to be an issue in this study due to differences in procedure between the facilities incorporated in the study.
Design and methods
Study participants were recruited from the Coagulation Unit at Karolinska University Hospital in Sweden. Deliveries from 14 different obstetric units were examined. Researchers focused on women who delivered during 1995-2012. The inclusion criteria for participants were: a VWD diagnosis (all subtypes), female gender, age 18–50 years, and a history of at least one delivery. All women who met the inclusion criteria were identified and invited to participate. The study design is retrospective and observational.
Sample, size, and setting
34 women and 59 deliveries were included in the study. The age of the women ranged from 19 to 42 years of age. Being that VWD is a rare disorder this sample size is considered to be relatively large (Govorov et al., 2016).
Findings and conclusions
In the group with VWD incidence of PPH was higher when compared to the general incidence in healthy individuals. “The incidence of primary PPH was 44%, severe primary PPH 20% and secondary PPH 12%”, (Govorov et al., 2016). VWD type three patients had a higher risk of experiencing severe primary PPH compared to other subtypes. When the diagnosis of VWD was unknown before pregnancy researches found a higher risk of PPH as a result. Not receiving homeostatic drugs proved to increase PPH rates among women with VWD. Low serum FVIII correlated with higher blood loss during delivery.
Implications for future research
From this research further can be explored on the efficacy of different hemostatic drug treatments in prevention PPH. Also, clinical guidelines for women with VWD during pregnancy can be researched and studied to help decrease the risk of PPH.
Application to advanced nursing practice
In advanced nurse practice patients may present with different hematologic issues and advanced practice nurses should educate themselves on those they may encounter in practice. Understanding the issues in women with VDW face, as well as the hemostatic treatments available to these women is important in providing quality care. This study shows the importance of identifying women with undiagnosed VWD and getting a thorough medical history of bleeding (personal and familial histories). The study also provides valuable information on how different treatments can curtail the outcomes of PPH and the incidence of PPH in different subtypes of the disease.
Please can you respond to the above post in 6-8 sentences , 2 APA format references . Thanks
