- Pick two diseases from each of the following systems: HEENT, Pulmonary, Hematology, Neurology, Gastroenterology, Cardiovascular, Orthopedics, Endocrinology, Dermatology, Urology and STD’s, pregnancy, men’s health, psychiatry, and pediatric growth and development topics are required.
- Pick two health promotion areas, from either pediatrics, women’s health, men’s health, or issues in aging.
- Outline two diseases topic from each area noting the following: Name of the disease/promotion area, definition, brief pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, current guidelines for diagnosis (i.e. laboratory testing, signs alone, etc.), and current treatment standards.
- Outline the two health promotion areas noting risk factors to precipitate needing the health promotion measure (if any) and current guidelines for screening and/or implementation of the health promotion measure.
- Note if there are conflicting guidelines on any of the above areas (disease or health promotion). For example certain bodies differ on recommendations for self-breast exam.
- Then write a brief case at the end of each disease highlighting the patient with ‘classic’ signs of the disease in subjective and objective data. *For health promotion, outline a case history and physical where the patient meets the criteria for that health promotion.
- Topic areas should be chosen based on weakest areas of knowledge for students by reviewing their APEA exam results, and the AANP certification exam blueprint (found on the internet).
