The student will be required to complete all parts 1-9 in a written paper.
The paper will be double-spaced, and answers should only be on one side of the paper.
The paper will be a minimum of 3 pages long, and should also include an additional citations page at the back.
A minimum of three APA-style references must be included in the paper. There should be an APA-format citations page labeled “References” at the end of the presentation. Additionally, sources should be cited within the text where appropriate. Reputable resources include peer-reviewed journal articles, interviews with clinicians who deal with these pathologies on a daily basis, personal experiences, class lectures, and other reputable sources.
The student should Times New Roman font size 12. The paper should be written with the text aligned to the left margin.
In this section, you will describe the pathophysiology (statistics about it, background information etc). Give as much information as you can about it, but be sure it is relevant information and not just filler. This section generally should be 2-3 paragraphs in length.
This section should cover Criteria 1 & 2 from the Case Study
Normal anatomy of the major body system effected (Criteria 3):
In this section, you will describe what is considered normal anatomy for your particular pathophysiology. For example, if you are discussing a disease related to the brain describe what is normal for the brain from an anatomy standpoint. This should take a paragraph or two to complete this section.
Normal physiology of the major body system effected (Criteria 4):
Same as the previous section but instead of explaining the anatomy you will be explaining the physiology.
Mechanism of Pathophysiology (Criteria 5):
This section is likely going to be the most in depth and longest section. This is where you will explain your particular pathophysiology from an anatomy and physiology standpoint. In the previous two sections you explained what is considered normal, in this section I want you to explain what the pathophysiology is doing that is causing these issues, how the anatomy is affected and how it has an effect on the physiology of that particular system.
Prevention (Criteria 6):
In this section, you will explain how your pathophysiology could be prevented.
Treatment (Criteria 7):
In this section, you will explain how your pathophysiology is commonly treated.
Clinical Relevance (Criteria 8):
In this section, you will cover the clinical relevance or significance.
Conclusion:
Wrap everything up. A good academic research paper should bring everything full circle with a solid conclusion.
