investigation of a health condition. 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. (PO 1) 2. Predict clinical manifestations and complications of select disease processes. (PO 1, 8) 3. Correlate lifestyle, environmental, and other influences with changes in levels of wellness. (PO 1, 7) Due date: Your faculty member will inform you when this assignment is due. The Late Assignment Policy applies to this assignment. Total points possible: 100 points Preparing the assignment Follow these guidelines when completing this assignment. Speak with your faculty member if you have questions. 1) Select a disease process that interests you. 2) Obtain approval of the selected disease process from the course faculty. a. Faculty will share how to submit your topic choice for approval. 3) Write a 2‐3 page paper (excluding title and reference pages). 4) Include the following sections about the selected disease process (detailed criteria listed below and in the Grading Rubric). a. Introduction of disease ‐ 20 points/20% • One paragraph (approximately 200 words) • Includes disease description • Includes epidemiology of disease b. Etiology and risk factors ‐ 20 points/20% • Common causes of the disease or condition • Risk factors for the disease or condition • Impact of age • Prevalence based on gender, • Influence of environment • Genetic basis of disease • Lifestyle influences • All information supported by current literature c. Pathophysiological processes ‐ 20 points/20% • Describes changes occurring at the cellular, tissue, and/or organ level that contribute to the disease process. • Describes adaptation of the cells and body in response to the disease. • Relates disease processes to manifested signs and symptoms. d. Clinical manifestations and complications ‐ 20 points/20% • Describes the physical signs and symptoms that are important in considering the presence of the disease. • Identifies signs that contribute to diagnosis of the condition • Identifies symptoms that contribute to diagnosis of the condition. • Identifies complications of the disease. • Discusses the implications to the patient when complications are left untreated. e. Diagnostics ‐ 10 points/10% • Includes list of common laboratory and diagnostic tests used to determine the presence of the disease.1 NR283 Pathophysiological Processes Guidelines V4.docx Revised: 05/2018 11 NR283 Pathophysiology RUA: Pathophysiological Processes Guidelines f. • Discusses the significance of test findings in relation to the disease process. APA Style and Organization ‐ 10 points/10% • References are submitted with assignment. • Uses appropriate APA format (6th ed.) and is free of errors. • Grammar and mechanics are free of errors. • Paper is 2‐3 pages, excluding title and reference pages • At least two (2) scholarly, primary sources from the last 5 years, excluding the textbook, are provided For writing assistance (APA, formatting, or grammar) visit the Citation and Writing Assistance: Writing Papers at CU page in the online library. 2 NR283 Pathophysiological Processes Guidelines V4.docx Revised: 05/2018 21 NR283 Pathophysiology RUA: Pathophysiological Processes Guidelines Grading Rubric Criteria are met when the student’s application of knowledge within the paper demonstrates achievement of the outcomes for this assignment.
