Week 3 Assignment  

 

Concept Process Assignment Guidelines #1

 

The purpose is to integrate basic concepts with systems disorders using analysis in support of critical thinking.

 

Select a pathophysiology concept and systems disorder for which you have not previously completed an Active Learning Template (faculty may decide to assign a specific concept).

 

Complete the three areas of the basic concept template describing this concept in detail.

 

Complete all areas of the systems disorder template

 

Complete an analysis reviewing how the selected concept and systems disorder is related.

 

Be prepared to submit, present, and/or teach this concept to others based on your faculty member’s instructions.

 

Download and review the Concept Process Assignment Guidelines (Links to an external site.) for more information.

 

To obtain a blank Active Learning Template, log in to your ATI account and follow these steps.

 

Click on My ATI.

 

Click on the Active Learning Templates tab.

 

Select the template you need.

 

Purpose

 

To integrate and build on basic concepts in support of critical thinking.

 

Course outcomes: This assignment enables the student to meet the following course outcomes:

 

CO 1: Correlate lifestyle, environmental, and other influences with changes in levels of wellness. (POs 1 and 7)

 

CO 2: Explain the pathophysiologic processes of select health conditions. (PO 1)

 

CO 3: Predict clinical manifestations and complications for select disease processes. (POs 1 and 8)

 

Preparing the assignment

 

Select a pathophysiology concept that you have not previously completed an active learning template for. Some examples include but are not limited to: pathophysiology, etiology, iatrogenic, exogenous, prevention, mortality, morbidity, manifestations, symptoms, communicable diseases, apoptosis, hyperplasia, ischemia, impaired gas exchange, impaired mobility, or impaired perfusion.

 

Complete the three areas of the template describing in detail this concept. Select a disease process from the current organ system you are studying, that you have not previously completed an active learning template for. Some examples include but are not limited to: pneumonia, heart failure, hyperthyroidism, colon cancer, renal failure, arthritis.

 

Complete the top three boxes, the Assessment and Safety Concerns area of the form. Be prepared to submit, present and/or teach this concept to others based on your faculty member’s instructions. In addition, complete as much of the Patient Centered Care area as you are able based on your own research and/or collaboration with your peers or faculty.

 

Create a 1 page analysis describing how the selected concept relates to the selected systems disorder. Be prepared to present and/or submit your paper.

 

The following is an example to help clarify the assignment guidelines:

 

After completing the two templates below, the analysis paper might include a discussion of how immobility will affect the particular selected disorder (in this case fracture). The analysis might include how immobility will increase complications if patient is unable to walk, or if the patient does not have access to a walker. It may also include the possibility the patient will be immobile in a bed right after surgical repair, and how this may affect the outcome of the patient. Furthermore, highlights on how a specific patient age could affect immobility (i.e. elderly are more likely to fracture hips). Reviewing how immobility may affect other types of fractures could be included.

Please note that your instructor may provide you with additional assessments in any form to determine that you fully understand the concepts learned in the review module.
