An understanding of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems is a critically important component of disease diagnosis and treatment. This importance is magnified by the fact that these two systems work so closely together. A variety of factors and circumstances that impact the emergence and severity of issues in one system can have a role in the performance of the other.
\nEffective disease analysis often requires an understanding that goes beyond these systems and their capacity to work together. The impact of patient characteristics, as well as racial and ethnic variables, can also have an important impact.
\nAn understanding of the symptoms of alterations in cardiovascular and respiratory systems is a critical step in diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. For APRNs this understanding can also help educate patients and guide them through their treatment plans.
\nIn this Assignment, you examine a case study and analyze the symptoms presented. You identify the elements that may be factors in the diagnosis, and you explain the implications to patient health.
\nTo prepare:<\/p>\n
By Day 1 of this week, you will be assigned to a specific case study scenario for this Case Study Assignment. Please see the \u201cCourse Announcements\u201d section of the classroom for your assignment from your Instructor.
\n45-year-old woman presents with chief complaint of 3-day duration of shortness of breath, cough with thick green sputum production, and fevers. Patient has history of COPD with chronic cough but states the cough has gotten much worse and is interfering with her sleep. Sputum is thicker and harder for her to expectorate. CXR reveals flattened diaphragm and increased AP diameter. Auscultation demonstrates hyper resonance and coarse rales and rhonchi throughout all lung fields.<\/p>\n
Assignment (1- to 2-page case study analysis)
\nIn your Case Study Analysis related to the scenario provided, explain the following
\nThe cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary pathophysiologic processes that result in the patient presenting these symptoms.
\nAny racial\/ethnic variables that may impact physiological functioning.
\nHow these processes interact to affect the patient.<\/p>\n
