What difficulties might a person with a mental illness face in developing healthy interpersonal relationships?

A 20-year-old with no previous medical history developed an episode of palpitations, shortness of breath, and syncope. It felt like the situation was not real while awaiting a turn to present a project in class. The client was brought to the emergency department via ambulance approximately one hour after the onset of the episode, and at the time of arrival, the symptoms had subsided. The intake nurse noted that the admission electrocardiogram, chest x-ray, and blood work were all within normal limits.

The nurse suspects that the client is suffering from:
– schizophrenia
– a panic-attack
– a depressive disorder
– a bipolar disorder

2. Are these difficulties any different than people who do not have any mental health concerns?

 

What gastrointestinal bleed is associated with a high mortality rate in those with advanced cirrhosis? What is the pathophysiology of this condition?

Robert is a 68-year-old who has dealt with alcoholism for over 30 years. He has cirrhosis and is anemic. His appetite has declined, and he regularly complains of abdominal pain. Recently, while preparing himself a sandwich, he cut his finger deeply with a knife. The wound bled profusely, and he used a kitchen towel to stop the flow. Refusing to go and seek medical assistance, he put ice on his finger and wrapped the towel around it. He sat down in his recliner with his hand over his head and fell asleep.
