These, then, eventually die leaving the transfer of oxygen in your blood being absolutely limited and far below the point at which the flow of oxygen needs to be in a human body. The flow of blood and transfer of oxygen eventually slows down tremendously and can cause terrible pain as well as make the immune system to be vulnerable to a variety of different diseases. There are many medical procedures that can allow the individual to find a relief (Lozoff et al., 2003).
In our case study, we will mainly highlight how the mother's approach was tentative and skeptical and how the four points that have been mentioned initially (communication, social organization, spatial dynamics and locus of control) are impacted through her approach. The first important thing to note about the attitude of the mother is that she does seem very forthcoming to find out as much as she possibly can about the sickle cell anemia disease that she fears her daughter has. This is directly linked to eth social order and locus of control in the social order that has been aforementioned. In the Japanese culture the primary decision maker is the father (the head of the family) or the oldest son, hence the mother's tentative and un-curious approach. It is important, in such circumstances, that the nurse or doctor takes the situation in their hands and make all the inquiries that they need to be answered in order to make a verifiable analysis. One of the most successful ways that this can be done is by respecting the restrictive environment while maintaining an inquisitive and genuine interest in the story of the patient. This allows the visitor, in this case the mother, to feel more comfortable to open up because she feels that there is a certain level of understanding coming from the other end. Also it is very important that the doctor or nurse handling the case does show any form of preferences or biases to the patient or visitor. In this case specially, the nurse needs to be very friendly, kind and forthcoming with all the necessary information that the mother will need regarding the disease as well as the possible treatments because of the lack of inquisitiveness form the mother (Black, 2003; Izumi, 2008).
The impact of such a restricted approach on the overall communication process is very negative as the entire has to be initiated from one side without any guarantee of a feedback from the receiver (mother). It will be the nurse's job to probe and pry and make the mother give her details about the conditions and symptoms that her daughter is facing. Furthermore, to instigate a response the nurse can resort to adopting a popular and successful strategy of revealing a personal experience and/or lesson and then ask the mother what she thinks about the situation (Black, 2003).
Anemia and iron deficiency have grown to be two of the most pressing diseases amongst the children and elderly women in Japan. The overall spatial dynamics and problems that the government of Japan has to take care of include the efficiency of nurses and doctors on giving timely and acceptable remedies because without it the government has to face the financial burdens of treating relative problems like psychomotor progress, damaged cognitive operation, and growth retardation amongst others (Lozoff et al., 2003). Furthermore, acceptable remedies have to be the ones that will not go against or offend the overall social structure or beliefs of the patient. This is one of the most important factors in providing healthcare in any and every culture. The nurse and doctor have to make...
