Therapeutic drawing - many children and adolescents love to
draw and paint and will spontaneously express themselves in
artwork. Their drawings capture the thoughts, feelings, and
tensions they may not be able to express verbally, are unaware
of, or are denying. For some, however, this modality may be too
threatening or not engaging. Children and adolescents can be
encouraged to draw themes, such as people, families, or
themselves or more ----------themes, such as feelings. To use
this modality, the pmh-aprn needs to be familiar with the
drawing capabilities expected of children at particular
developmental levels, and additional training is recommended. -
--ANSWERS----abstract =feelings
Antipsychotic therapy is widely used to treat behavioral
disturbances in older adults with dementia, however, the -------
-----against the use of atypical antipsychotic drugs in persons
with dementia warrant the need for non-pharmacological
interventions aimed at managing behavior.
This unit will examine various therapeutic modalities, such as v--
--------- therapy, r-------------- therapy, r------- orientation,
s-------- enhancement, and alternative therapies (i.e., animal-
assisted therapy and music therapy) for treating geriatric clients
with cognitive disorders. - --ANSWERS----black box warning
states no antipsychotics with dementia patients
-validation therapy
-reminiscence therapy
-reality orientation
,-socialization
Because delirium is usually caused by an underlying systemic
illness, a prompt search is essential for treatable conditions
such as dehydration, diabetes, hy-----natremia, hyp-----
calcemia, thyroid --------, infection, silent ------------, drug
intoxication, or --------or renal failure (meagher et al., 2007). If
the cause is removed quickly, complete recovery from delirium
can be achieved. - --ANSWERS----hyponatremia,
hypercalcemia, thyroid crisis, myocardial infarction, liver/renal
failure
The actual cause of dementia of the alzheimer's type (dat)
remains unknown, but several factors are believed to play a role.
Dat has been correlated with the loss of specific group of nerve
cells and the disruption of communication between nerve cells
from a---------- and s---------- deficits. Researchers are
working to identify a slow-acting, virus-like causative agent. This
work has been prompted by the findings of just such an agent in
creutzfeldt---------- disease.
To date, advanced age, family history of the illness, ---------
syndrome, and a history of ---------- are risk factors for dat
(apa, 2000; white & cummings, 1997). There are linkages between
genetic markers and dat on a number of chromosomes, namely
chromosomes (numbers)--------,---------,-------- and one or
both alleles coding for the e4 variant of apolipoprotein on
chromosome 19 (called apo e4). People with dat have four times
the family incidence - --ANSWERS----acetylcholine and
serotonin deficits
Creutzfeldt-jakob disease
,Down's syndrome
Head trauma

Stroke, thyroid disorder, lower educational status, and female
gender
Cholinesterase
T/f
Risperidone (risperdal ®), olanzapine (zyprexa ®), and clozapine
(clozaril ®) can be used with dementia - --ANSWERS----f
Black box warning - increased risk of death
They are for scizophrenia, not for the treatment of behavioral
disorders in persons with dementia.
Validation therapy
Validation therapy is an alternative approach to -------------, a
humanistic approach.
Validation therapy advocates that, rather than trying to bring the
person with dementia back to our reality, it is more positive to --
----------. In this way ----------- is developed with the person
building trust and a sense of security. This in turn reduces ------
---- many families and caregivers report increased benefits for
themselves, as well as for the person with dementia, from a
, reduced number of conflicts and a less stressful environment. -
--ANSWERS----communication
Enter their reality
Empathy
Anxiety.
Validation therapy
Naomi ------ (2002), a social worker, developed validation
therapy between 1963 and 1980 for older people with cognitive
impairments. Initially, this therapy did not include those with
dementia. Applying validation therapy in dementia care occurred
in the early 1980s. Validation therapy is based on the idea that
once the person has experienced severe short-term memory
loss and can no longer employ intellectual thinking or make
sense of the present, he or she is likely to go -------------. This
may be in order to resolve -------- conflicts, relive past
experiences or to retreat from the present over which they have
little control. Some people will go in and out of the present.
Some family members and caregivers express concern that
validation involves ----------- to the person with dementia
about reality. However a more accurate description is that it
avoids --------their reality. For instance, i - --ANSWERS----feil
Back to the past.
Unfinished
Lying
Avoids challenging their reality
Self-esteem
