Present a hypothetical case that includes the following:

1. Vital information about a person who might be predisposed to this condition (I.e., a person who may have risk factors for this condition). 

2. The pathophysiology of the disease, including clinical manifestations.

3. Which diagnostic tests you’d recommend and a rationale for the one(s) you choose.

4. How this condition compares to other differentials.

5. The evidence-based recommendations from the

AHRQ Guidelines
or guidelines recommended from a professional organization. Based on these recommendations, discuss how  to manage the condition best.

6. A patient safety issue that could be associated with the condition presented in this case.

These charts may help in organizing information to answer the narrative questions: 

Name of Condition:
Risk factors
Pathophysiology
Clinical manifestations
Additional details (optional):
Differential Diagnoses (See chart below)
What makes this diagnosis unique from other differentials?
Guidelines and recommendations for condition management
Potential related safety issues

 

 

DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS CHART

	Condition	Differential 1	Differential 2	Differential 3

· 2. Describe the vulnerable population and setting. What are the risk factors that make this a vulnerable population? Use evidence to support the risk factors you have identified. 

· 3. Provide a review of literature from scholarly journals of evidence-based interventions that address the problem. After completing a library search related to effective interventions for your chosen health promotion activity, you will write a review that evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of all the sources you have found. You might consult research texts for information on how to write a review of the literature found in your search. 

· 4. Select an appropriate health promotion/disease prevention theoretical framework or conceptual model that would best serve as the framework guiding the proposal. Provide rationale for your selection which includes discussion of the concepts of the selected model
