Neurologic Function Case Study
Part 1:
Compare and contrast the 3 conditions (pain) in the chart. (I attached the chart)
Part 2:
Choose a pain syndrome to explore (pick one of them).
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. (use differential chart)
- 5. The evidence-based recommendations from the AHRQ guidelines (https://www.ahrq.gov/gam/index.html) 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.
Part 3:
Answer these reflection questions:
- 1. What information would a master’s prepared nurse gather from a patient with this condition?
- 2. How could the master’s prepared nurse use this information to design a patient education session for someone with this condition?
- 3. What was the most confusing or challenging information presented in this case?
Expectations:
- -Use medical terminology and appropriate graduate level writing.
- -Your resources must include research articles and reference to non-research evidence-based.
- -AHRQ guidelines
- -Use APA format to style your paper and to cite your sources. Your source(s) should be integrated into the paragraphs. Use internal citations pointing to evidence in the literature and supporting your ideas. You will need to include a reference page listing those sources. Cite a minimum of three resources.
