4. Once you have had an in-depth discussion of your diagnosis overall, be sure to connect your case discussion back to the patient you have presented.

5. Support your case discussion with current (in the past 5 years) high level evidence. Patient information portals, disease association websites and other resources such as Up-to-date, Epocrates, Medscape, Mayo Clinic are not considered high levels of evidence and should be avoided for your presentations.

If you are unclear about what is considered high level evidence, please review content from your Evidence Based Nursing Practice Course.
