I-HUMAN PATIENTS CASE STUDY: EVALUATING AND MANAGING INTEGUMENTARY CONDITIONS

This course will require you to complete a series of case studies using the i-Human Patients software application. The i-Human Patients (IHP) Case Player enables you to interact with virtual patients for the purpose of learning patient-assessment and diagnostic-reasoning skills. With IHP, you will be able to independently interview, examine, diagnose, and treat virtual patients and receive expert feedback on your performance.

The integumentary system is susceptible to a variety of diseases, conditions, and injuries, ranging from the bothersome but relatively innocuous bacterial or fungal infections and categorized as disorders, to skin cancer and severe burns, which can be life threatening.

For this NURS 6512 week 4 ihuman – 36 y/o 5′ 0″ (152 cm) 144.0 lb (65.5 kg) with Itchy rash Assignment, you will examine an i-Human Patients case study. You will then work with an i-Human patient with an integumentary condition.

WEEKLY RESOURCES

To prepare:

By Day 1 of this week, your Instructor will assign an i-Human Patients case study for this Assignment. 
Note:
 Please see the 
Course Announcements
 section of the classroom for your i-Human Patients Assignment.

Review this week’s Learning Resources. Consider how to assess, diagnose, and treat patients with integumentary conditions.

Access and review the assigned i-Human Patients case study. Based on the provided patient information, think about the health history you would need to collect from the patient.

Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be most appropriate to gather more information about the patient’s condition.

Reflect on how the results would be used to make a diagnosis.

NURS 6512 week 4 ihuman – 36 y/o 5′ 0″ (152 cm) 144.0 lb (65.5 kg) with Itchy rash

Identify three to five (3–5) possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for the patient.

Consider the patient’s diagnosis. Think about clinical guidelines that might support this diagnosis.

Develop a treatment plan for the patient that includes health promotion and patient education strategies for patients with integumentary conditions.

Assignment
