NR 526 Week 7 Assignment: 3Ps Handout
Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is to synthesize advanced knowledge of pathophysiology, pharmacology, and health (physical) assessment into three handouts for nursing students or staff nurses.
Requirements: Description of the assignment: This final NR526 assignment requires you to develop a set of 3 handouts on the topic that you chose for the Week 5 assignment. IMPORTANT:
In these handouts, you will present an in-depth application of pathophysiology, pharmacology, and health (physical) assessment concepts related to your chosen topic. You should describe at least one concept in each handout but may display multi-concepts if necessary.
You may use your textbooks as references, but you should also have at least one peer-reviewed article as a reference. Clinical practice guidelines are good sources for this assignment but you mayuse other peer-reviewed articles in which the evidence-based care of patients is presented. Feel free to use images (see information on copyright), concept maps, tables, or anything else you feel will enhance your handout.
Only use media you develop yourself or that you obtain through this page in the Chamberlain Library: . You can add web addresses to your handout if you want to link to video or audio files.
Good, relevant, current content is the most important feature of your handouts. For clinical topics, “current” is defined as no more than five years old.
NR-526 Week 7 Graded Discussion: Shock
We will move away from our patients in Second Life now and focus on an acute problem that is challenging your students. Chose two types of shock from the following: cardiogenic, neurogenic, anaphylactic, and septic, hypovolemic. Compare and contrast two of them for your students, including:
- Etiology
- Pathophysiology
- Important physical assessments
- Non-pharmacological interventions.
- Pharmacological interventions
Feel free to use a table, concept map, or other device to compare and contrast.
