What this means for you |
Articulation |
The candidate provides substantial articulation of response. |
You are expected to write logically with clarity. Organization, and proper writing mechanics. |
A. Investigated Disease Process |
The candidate investigates 1 of the given disease processes. |
1. You are expected to provide a brief introduction of the disease process you have selected to investigate. 2. Consider including a discussion of why you selected this topic and the scope of the impact of the disease in general. |
A1. Pathophysiology |
The candidate provides a plausible analysis, with substantial detail, of the pathophysiology of the disease process selected in part A. |
1. You are expected to discuss the pathophysiology of the selected disease from the macro to micro level. 2. This is an opportunity to begin with a general approach to the sequence of factors that result in alterations in normal function at the systems level and drill down to the hormonal, electrolyte and cellular changes that promote the appearance or progression of the disease.
Things to consider: Have you identified and discussed the factors that contribute to the disease from a system level all the way down to the cellular level? What changes occur as a result of the disease and how does the body respond (compensate)? |
A2. Standard of Practice |
The candidate provides a logical discussion, with substantial detail, of the standard of practice for the selected disease process. |
1. You are to discuss the aspects of the standards of practice for the disease in detail. 2. The standard of practice is essentially a consensus of what providers follow assessing, diagnosing, and managing the disease on a daily basis. They may align completely with the Clinical Practice Guidelines or differ in some ways based on prevalence, resources and local outcomes. 3. Consider looking at your facility protocols or the practice recommendations in your state. |
A2a. Pharmacological Treatments |
The candidate provides a logical discussion, with substantial detail, of the evidence-based pharmacological treatments in the candidate’s state and how they affect management of the selected disease in the candidate’s community. |
1. Identify and discuss the pharmacological treatments generally used in your state (based on Standards of Practice or Clinical Practice Guidelines). You may use 1st person or ‘in the author’s state’… 2. Next, discuss the ways in which those medications impact the individuals in your community who have the disease. Consider these and other issues: Are outcomes changed? Is progression of the disease limited? Are hospitalizations decreased? Are patients more compliant? |
