Such case studies enable nurse learners to apply concepts, lessons, and critical thinking to interviewing, screening, diagnostic approaches, as well as the development of treatment plans.

For this Case Study Assignment, you will analyze a case study scenario to obtain information related to a comprehensive well-woman exam and determine differential diagnoses, diagnostics, and develop treatment and management plans.

Charlene Baja is the Case study. Information needed to complete the assignment was provided in week two announcements. You will analyze a case study scenario to obtain information related to a comprehensive well-woman exam and determine differential diagnoses, diagnostics, and develop a treatment and management plan. Please use the case study template.

To prepare:

· By Day 1 of this week, you will be choosing one of the two assigned case study scenarios provided.

· Review the Learning Resources for this week and pay close attention to the media program related to basic microscope skills. Also, consider re-reviewing the media programs found in Week 1 Learning Resources.

· Carefully review the clinical guideline resources.

· Use the Case Study Template found in the Learning Resources to support the development of your assignment.

Some questions to consider as you complete your SOAP NOTE for all Case Studies.  

·
Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding her personal and medical history? What additional information is needed?

·
Objective: What observations did you make during the physical assessment? What additional assessment/observations are needed?

·
Assessment: What are your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible differentials. List them from highest priority to lowest priority. What was your primary diagnosis and why?

·
Plan: What was your plan for diagnostics and primary diagnosis? What was your plan for treatment and management, including alternative therapies? Include pharmacologic and , labs and diagnostic treatments, alternative therapies, and follow-up parameters, as well as a rationale for this treatment and management plan.

·
Reflection notes: What would you do differently in a similar patient evaluation?

IMPORTANT: For the 
Assessment and 
Plan sections, please make sure you don’t just list the differential and final diagnoses.   I want to see your clinical reasoning/rationale based on the information you presented in subjective/objective information.  This clinical reasoning should be supported by scholarly evidence.  Scholarly evidence includes peer reviewed journal articles from the Walden library and/or current clinical guidelines from reputable sources within the last five years.  This will address the “why” as stated above in the requirement

Remember the difference between a primary diagnosis versus a differential:

A Primary diagnosis-is the one diagnosis established after proper assessment/examination and testing has been completed.

Differential diagnosis is the process of developing a 
list of the possible conditions that might produce a patient’s symptoms and signs this is an important part of clinical reasoning. It enables appropriate testing to rule out possibilities and confirm a final (
primary) diagnosis.Practice and preparation decrease the incidence for errors.
