A 45-year-old woman presents with shortness of breath, cough with thick green sputum, and fevers. She has a history of COPD but her symptoms are worse and interfering with sleep. A chest X-ray shows flattened diaphragm and increased lung diameter. Lung auscultation reveals coarse rales and rhonchi. The case requires understanding how cardiovascular and respiratory systems interact and how patient characteristics can impact disease.

1. Components of disease diagnosis and treatment.
Components of disease diagnosis and treatment.Components of disease diagnosis and
treatment.45-year-old woman presents with chief complaint of 3-day duration of shortness
of breath, cough with thick green sputum production, and fevers. Patient has history of
COPD with chronic cough but states the cough has gotten much worse and is interfering
with her sleep. Sputum is thicker and harder for her to expectorate. CXR reveals flattened
diaphragm and increased AP diameter. Auscultation demonstrates hyper resonance and
coarse rales and rhonchi throughout all lung fields. An understanding of the cardiovascular
and respiratory systems is a critically important component of disease diagnosis and
treatment. This importance is magnified by the fact that these two systems work so closely
together. A variety of factors and circumstances that impact the emergence and severity of
issues in one system can have a role in the performance of the other.Effective disease
analysis often requires an understanding that goes beyond these systems and their capacity
to work together. The impact of patient characteristics, as well as racial and ethnic
variables, can also have an important impact.An understanding of the symptoms of
alterations in cardiovascular and respiratory systems is a critical step in diagnosis and
treatment of many diseases. For APRNs this understanding can also help educate patients
and guide them through their treatment plans.In this Assignment, you examine a case study
and analyze the symptoms presented. You identify the elements that may be factors in the
diagnosis, and you explain the implications to patient health.Assignment (1- to 2-page case

physiological functioning.How these processes interact to affect the patient.ORDER NOW
FOR CUSTOMIZED, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPERSYou must proofread your paper. But do not
strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so
indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly.
Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read
over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as
necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious
errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.Use a standard 10
to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers
with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over
the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.Likewise,

2. large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space
between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at
“padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not
fool your professor.The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch
margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to
use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be
hard to follow your argument.
