Pathophysiology Pathophysiological Processes Guidelines
PURPOSE
This project is an investigation of a health condition that you will investigate in depth. It will allow for the expansion of knowledge and the ability to generalize larger concepts to a variety of health conditions.
COURSE OUTCOMES: This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcomes.
1. Explain the pathophysiologic processes of select health conditions.
2. Predict clinical manifestations and complications of select disease processes.
3. Correlate lifestyle, environmental, and other influences with changes in levels of wellness.
PREPARING THE ASSIGNMENT:
Please include the following in your paper: body system with name of disease, etiology, risk factors, pathophysiological process, clinical manifestations and complications, and diagnostics. Please remember to use proper APA style for your paper.
1) Select a disease process from any of the body systems covered in the course (i.e.; the hematologic system, or reproductive systems, gastrointestinal, endocrine, musculoskeletal, neurosensory, renal, etc) or from the reproductive system (not covered in this course).
2) Obtain approval of the selected disease from the course faculty.
3) Write a 2-3 page paper (excluding title and reference pages). Include the following information (also outlined in the grading rubric) about the selected disease process:
a. Introduction of disease
b. Etiology and risk factors
c. Pathophysiological processes
d. Clinical Manifestations & Complications
e. Diagnostics
4) Be sure to provide a reference list in APA format.
