orbital atherectomy in treatment of severely calcified lesion

Hi ,

This is a persuasive/ research essay. I need a rough draft 6-8 paragraphs using APA format. Please use the provided sources and in text citation is mandatory. Below, I have included instruction to writing. I have written an introductory to help. My argument is to persuade audience (Doctors) to use Orbital Atherectomy prior to stent placement vs balloon angioplasty.

My Introduction is :

“In the past six years, I have been able to serve patients with coronary artery disease as a cardiac cath lab technologist and a training manager for a medical device company. Today, medical engineering is advancing their game and have designed new technology to help optimize a better patient outcome, with a better long term result. Despite advances in interventional techniques, treatment of calcified coronary lesions remains a challenge. Stent placement in calcified lesions may result in stent underexpansion, malapposition, and procedural complications. Among all the new technology the Orbital Atherectomy System (OAS) is a safe and effective tool to be used in vessel prepration prior to stent placement. Other methods such as: Plain Old Balloon Angioplasty (POBA) prior to stent placement in calcified arteries tends to create more issues during and after the procedure. This is a growing problem as our patients populations age. According to American Heart Association Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is the leading cause (43.8 percent) of deaths attributable to cardiovascular disease in the US. It is a known fact in the Interventional Cardiology (IC) world that calcium has always been underestimated and untreated. The lack of proper treatment of calcified arteries leads to increased risk in adverse cardiovascular events.

Instructions to Writing:

Overview: Persuasion is a constant in each and every one of our lives. No matter where we look, what we read, what we see, or who we interact with, we are inevitably going to encounter some form of persuasion. Advertisements want us to buy things. Newspapers and television want to convince us of what we should feel about events. We are put into positions where we must defend our thoughts and beliefs to others, and the process we apply is typically some form of persuasion.

Persuasive writing is one of the most powerful forms of writing—it has the ability to influence one’s thoughts, and also the ability to change one’s mind about a particular issue. The persuasive essay is an ideal opportunity to support an opinion on an issue utilizing researched facts and information. This also gives the chance to recognize that there is an opposing viewpoint to a position and to refute the opposing argument, noting that those who hold the opposing viewpoints are the intended audience of the piece.

Prompt: For this milestone, you will submit a draft of your persuasive essay. At this point in the course, if you have completed the previous milestone guided activities, the text boxes should be combined and transformed into a draft. This milestone will help you address the critical elements from Sections I–III below, which will ultimately inform your final submission of the persuasive essay. You have until the deadline to work on this draft. Whatever is completed by the deadline will be submitted to your instructor for grading and feedback.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:

  1. Introduction
    This is where readers will have a chance to get an idea of what your essay will be about and what you will prove throughout. Do not give all of your information away here, but give readers a sample of what is to come. Do not forget to review your writing plan to make sure you are hitting all of the points that you planned out, while also stating your argument.
    1. Provides an overview of the issue you have selected, briefly describing main points and your argument.
    2. Compose an engaging thesis that states the argument that you will prove and support throughout your essay. This statement will give directionto your essay and should be well thought out.
  2. Body
    The body is your opportunity to describe and support your argument in depth. Make sure your thoughts and evidence are clear and organized in a way that is easy for readers to follow and understand.
    1. Be sure that you write multiple paragraphs that are focused, clearly state their intent, and move logically from one to the other, building the thesis argument as the essay progresses.
    2. Your body paragraphs should support your argument by combining thoughts and ideas with evidence from sources. There is no such thing as a right or wrong argument; the key is how it is supported and the quality of the evidence used.

C. Address and refute any opposing viewpoints to your argument. This is your chance to discredit any opposing views, thus strengthening your own.

III. Conclusion
Think of the conclusion as a review of your argument. Use this section to restate your argument and remind readers of your supporting evidence. Think of this as your last chance to persuade readers to agree with you.

  1. Review your argument. This section should consist of a review of your main points employed to support your argument. Think of this as your last chance to prove your point or your closing arguments.
  2. Your conclusion should articulate insights about your argument established through your essay. This should follow logically from your essay, referring to key points or quotes used to support your argument.
