Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms (TOUS)
Every day in practice as a nurse, whether in hospitals, clinics, or any place where a patient is assessed. Subjective data is necessary. These data are obtained by the patient or caregiver. Considering that each person is a unique being, nurses must conduct a multidimensional evaluation of the symptoms. This evaluation allows adequate treatment for the patient and peace of mind simultaneously for the patient’s caregivers. There are multiple tools to evaluate symptoms, but few evaluate multidimensional symptoms. Therefore, below there will be a brief compilation of the theory of unpleasant symptoms created and reviewed by Lenz, Suppe, Gift, Pugh, and Milligan, 1997, which can have been applied to practice and research by nurses and doctors.
Models have developed but are centralized specifically on the intensity and severity of a symptom. However, it is necessary to identify quality, distress, and duration. The theory of unpleasant symptoms (TOUS) as a guide is excellent for assessing a symptom or symptoms with the mentioned characteristics. This theory is based on the idea that if a symptom is well managed, it will have repercussions positive for other symptoms per a patient (Peterson & Bredow,2013)
On the other hand, the theory of unpleasant symptoms was developed to analyze the important aspects of the experience of the symptoms. The goals are to improve comprehension and help nurses in their research and practice. Lenz (2018)
The TOUS indicates that the symptoms could be measured according to intensity, time, distress, person to assess, and dimension of quality. At the same time, there are factors influencing, such as antecedents physiologic, age, gender, pathologies, pregnancy, surgery, medication, and radiotherapy. The factors are psychological, e.g., mood of the person, management of disease, and factors such as environment, social aspects, and financial aspects. Also, TOUS hypothesizes that a non-revision, treatment, or following of these three dimensions would affect the functional and/or cognitive performance of a person (Peterson & Bredow, 2013).
Nevertheless, the TOUS does not contain explicit interventions, so components of this theory implicate an intervention in every aspect already mentioned. Even so, the authors indicated that this theory has solid foundations for implementing interventions for the evaluation and management of symptoms (Peterson & Bredow, 2013).
The implementation of this theory is a guide for nurses and advanced nurses, beginning with obtaining clinical records that include factors, physiological, psychological, and situational, for instance, symptoms physiologic would include consequences of diseases, injuries, or management. The psychological aspect includes identifying depression, mood changes, or traumas. Finally, identify factors situationally implicated and identify conditions of life, family problems, and concerns. (Peterson & Bredow,2013)
Also, the implementation of theory allows for the evaluation of outcomes to periodically monitor the changes in the symptoms in the short and long term, so giving instructions to inspire self-control and self-care. Lenz (2018)
To conclude, the main thing is not to forget that each patient is unique and that the symptoms presented, whether caused by physical, psychological, situational, or related problems, are experienced individually. Based on this, as a family nurse practitioner, I would seek to collect as much data as possible on the symptoms indicated by the patient. This evaluation tool must contain at least three aspects to evaluate: physical, psychological, and situational. Once these data were obtained, I would analyze their relationship and how one symptom could be related to the other. Then I would evaluate the priority with the patient and caregiver to implement a work plan that involves the patient, family, and nurse, and finally, periodically evaluate compliance with the objectives. It should be noted that this holistic work must require support from other health professionals, such as case managers, social workers, psychologists, and psychiatrists, to fully meet the objectives.

[Solved] Post Indicating Either Option
The principle of utility involves maximizing happiness as a desirable outcome of decisions. Although it does not get directly said, there is an inverse intention to minimize the undesirable outcome of disaster. Utilitarian decisions are directed toward outcomes—that is, the consequences of decisions.
We need to look at results. We first look at the actual results of an action. We judge if it was the best possible result. We can judge the actual results in comparison to other results that reasonably could be said to have been possible.
If we do not yet have the actual results of an action, we do not know if it is moral or not. We can talk hypothetically about what might happen, and then what that would show about the morality of an action. However, if we do not know what the action had as its consequences, we cannot yet say if it is moral or not.
For the initial post of this week’s discussion respond to one of the following options, and label the beginning of your post indicating either Option 1, Option 2, or Option 3:
Option 1: You are a nurse on a floor with only elderly patients. Every day, each patient tells you about how much pain they are in and asks you to help them. They want you to inject them with something to end their lives. If the patients die, the beds on that floor would be freed up for other patients. The hospital is at 100 percent capacity. There is no other hospital for 30 miles. Other patients may be not receiving care due to a lack of free beds. What is the moral thing to do here? Why is that the moral thing to do? What would an utilitarian say is the moral thing to do? Why would they say that? Compare and contrast the utilitarian approach with that of an ethical egoist or social contact theorist
Option 2: A new social media app is offering itself to you for free. If you upload a picture to it, the app will show how you will look at 10 years. John Doe, a friend of yours, says not to use the app as it will then possess your biometric facial data. Jane Doe, another friend of yours, says that she heard the app shares the facial data with a security firm that helps the government detect terrorists at airports. Should you use this app? Why or why not? If John Doe is right, would an utilitarian say it is right to use the app? Why or why not? If Jane Doe is right, would a social contract theorists say it is right to use the app? Consider the role the Fourth Amendment at play here.
Option 3: You are a nursing student at the XYZ College. It has a 50 percent acceptance rate (half the applicants do not get in). XYZ is a public college. XYZ has decided to implement an affirmative action policy. The college has few students over the age of 50. To encourage more students of that age, every student 50 or older will receive a bonus point. A student’s admission is dependent on having 11 points. One earns points for a GPA above a certain score, ACT/SAT score above a certain number, having a letter of recommendation, etc. XYZ also lacks LGBT students, Muslim, and African-American students and is considering offering a bonus point for any student fitting those categories. What is the key moral conflict for XYZ? What social values should XYZ promote here? What diverse populations are involved here, and what are their interests? Do you think XYZ’s social action is the correct solution to lack of diversity? Why or why not? Factor the ethics of egoism and utilitarianism into your answer.
[Solved] Larger Project Generation Wealth
Please screen both La Jeteé by Chris Marker and Kids & Money by Lauren Greenfield.
Kids & Money is a film that serves as a foundation of a larger project Generation Wealth
La Jeteé was a seminal part of The French New Wave in the 1950s and early 1960s and brought Chris
Marker international recognition.
Following the screening of each of these short films please write the following:
1. A one-page critical reaction/response for each film. What about the films works for you, what
does not? Be honest and open with your criticism, don’t feel that you have to couch or censor
your response/reaction.
2. Following that, on no more than two pages, please compare and contrast the films (I’m aware that
they are very different, one is a work of fiction and the other a documentary).
As a starting point, consider the role of the photographer/maker/camera in each film (there are
still photographs from Kids & Money as well). How is the eye of the maker and role of the camera
similar and how does it differ between the two? After that find similarities and differences in
storytelling, narrative structures, etc.
