- Gender, race (only if applicable to the diagnosis)
- Reason for admission and history of present illness
- Family and social history
- Functional level
- Allergies
- Code status
2 Assessment and interpretation
Physical assessment is complete, accurate, and organized.
Problems identified are in keeping with the data recorded and are stated as a NANDA Diagnosis.
3 Diagnostic data
Lab and radiology data results are correctly interpreted in light of the patient’s history and current condition.
Normal and abnormal interpretation of lab and radiology data is interpreted and discussed for significance to patient status and disease pathology. Preferably looking at multiple dates for comparative analysis. If lab/diagnostic data is unavailable, discuss what would be warranted or recommended with appropriate cited rationale.
7 Pathophysiology
Concept map
Pathophysiology flowchart – (In fundamentals, does not have to be the patient’s reason for admission)
Pathophysiology of the most relevant disease process must be described (not defined)
· At least 4 pathophysiologic factors affecting this patient’s condition needs to be described
· Illustrates interrelationships among the factors (risk factors, causes, what increases or decreases severity, what might protect against poor outcomes.)
