The student will be required to complete criteria 1-7 in a written paper.
The paper will be a minimum of 4 and a maximum of 6 pages long not including a title and reference pages.
A minimum of three APA-style references must be included in the paper. There should be an APA-format references page at the end of the presentation. Additionally, in-text citations should be included when appropriate. Reputable resources include peer-reviewed journal articles, textbooks, interviews with clinicians who deal with these pathologies on a daily basis, personal experiences, class lectures, and other scientific sources.
The student should use a font size of 12, Times New Roman, and double-spaced throughout. The paper should be written with the text aligned to the left margin with 1” margins.
Students should review the information about plagiarism in the Student Catalog. Any copying of information from another source without giving proper credit through a citation will be met with severe consequences. In line with this, however, the entire presentation should not be directly copied from other sources. The student is expected to compose ideas in their own words, and only use text from other sources as a minor supplement.The student will be required to complete criteria 1-7 in a written paper.

NAME OF PAPER/PATHOPHYSIOLOGY

Description of Pathology (Criteria 1):
In this section, you will describe the pathology (statistics about it, background
information, etc.). Give as much information as you can about it but be sure it is relevant
information and not just filler. It should be a comprehensive introductory section of the condition
in one to two paragraphs.
Note that “Running head” is removed
after the title page per APA
guidelines.
Be sure that in-text citations
follow APA guidelines (and
are included in each
section). Do not leave extra
spaces between sections,
normal double spacing
throughout the paper!
Normal anatomy of the major body system effected (Criteria 2):
In this section, you will describe what is considered NORMAL anatomy for your
particular pathophysiology. For example, if you are discussing a disease related to the brain,
explain what is normal for the brain from an anatomical standpoint. You should show
comprehensive knowledge of the fundamental concepts and communicate information using
scientific vocabulary. There should be little to no discussion of the condition itself in this section.

Normal physiology of the major body system effected (Criteria 3):
Same as the previous section, but instead of explaining the anatomy, you will be
discussing the physiology. Keep in mind that when describing physiology, it isn’t enough to
merely provide a function of the structure (Ex: Neurons send signals throughout the body), but
instead, you need to be able to describe HOW it does it. The how is the physiology. There
should be little to no discussion of the condition itself in this section
Mechanism of Pathophysiology (Criteria 4):
This section is likely going to be the most in-depth and longest section. In this section,
you will explain your particular pathophysiology from a scientific standpoint. In the previous
two sections, you explained what is considered normal, in this section, you should describe what
the pathophysiology is doing that is causing these issues, how the anatomy is affected, and how it
has an effect on the physiology of that particular system. You should show a thorough
understanding of the anatomical and physiological changes contributing to the disease. Some
good keywords to search for when doing your research might be “Pathology of __________”,
Pathophysiology of __________.”

Prevention (Criteria 5):
In this section, you will explain how your pathophysiology could be prevented. This
should outline possible prevention protocols, or clearly indicate if none is available based on the
current scientific literature.
Treatment (Criteria 6):
In this section, you will explain how your pathophysiology is commonly treated. Provide
possible treatment protocols for the condition based on current scientific literature. Be sure to
bring in nursing relevant information and how you might be involved in the treatment of the
condition.
Conclusion:
While not included in the criteria a good academic paper always ends with a conclusion
rather than just abruptly stopping. Check out:

clusions.html for a good review on how to write a conclusion for an academic paper.
Insert a page break after you finish
your final section to ensure that your
reference page doesn’t get messed up.

References:
This final reference page needs to include any and all references you utilized to find information
about your particular topic. Remember, the information needs to come from academic/scholarly
resources. https://scholar.google.com/ is a great search engine to help you find academic
resources. Sites such as Wikipedia are okay to use as a reference/starting point to locate good
articles; however, they cannot be used as a primary source of information.
***Tip: If you find information in Wikipedia, scroll down to the bottom of the page, you can
usually find academic articles that authors have utilized to complete the information. Most of the
time you can simply click on that article for a direct link, or simply search for the name of the
article in our Library Database to find a complete text.
***Be sure that your in-text citations are accurate and follow APA formatting, again utilize the
Purdue Owl website to help with that.
*** Remember, if you have a reference in your final reference list it MUST be cited in-text
somewhere. And if you have an in-text citation it must have a final reference included, no
exceptions!
*** Journal Article should have been published within the last 5-7 years to ensure accuracy.
Science is ever changing, so an article from 20 years ago may not be accurate anymore.
Example final reference:
