BACKGROUND

 

During your study, you may have found one of the medical

 

disorders you read about to be especially interesting. This

 

assignment gives you an opportunity to apply what you’ve

 

learned by researching outside sources and increasing your

 

understanding of one disorder.

 

GOAL

 

This assignment is designed to help you apply what you’ve

 

learned from your lessons by researching and writing about a

 

medical disorder you’ve studied and to give you an opportunity

 

to demonstrate your written communication and research skills.

 

PROCEDURE

 

Go to http://lessons.pennfoster.com/pdf/sp0754.pdf, and

 

read the instructions for research papers. Select a single medical

 

disorder that affects the cardiovascular, respiratory, lymphatic,

 

immune, gastrointestinal, urinary, or reproductive systems.

 

Consult the software program Anatomy & Physiology Revealed

 

3.0, and determine the histology and possible imaging studies

 

used to diagnose the disorder. Utilize other resources, including

 

textbooks, journal articles, and primary websites to validate

 

your findings. Then, prepare a detailed report on the medical

 

disorder, including the following elements:

 

1. Definition

 

2. Method(s) of diagnosis

 

3. Symptoms and complications of the disorder

 

4. Diagnostic findings from imaging and histology

 

5. Treatment of the disorder

 

6. Methods of prevention, if any

 

7. Directions for future research

 

70 Research Project

 

Incorporate the information you learned about anatomy and

 

physiology from this course, but don’t limit your discussion

 

to the textbook and study guide. Take advantage of external

 

resources to provide an in-depth, comprehensive report.

 

WRITING GUIDELINES

 

1. Type your submission, double-spaced, in a standard

d. Research project number (40944100)

 

3. Read the assignment carefully, and address the topic you

 

choose. Use proper citation in either APA or MLA style.

 

4. Be specific. Limit your submission to the topic suggested.
