Properly identifying the cause and type of a patients skin condition involves a process of elimination known as differential diagnosis. Using this process, a health professional can take a given set of physical abnormalities, vital signs, health assessment findings, and patient descriptions of symptoms, and incrementally narrow them down until one diagnosis is determined as the most likely cause.
In this Lab Assignment, you will examine several visual representations of various skin conditions, describe your observations, and use the techniques of differential diagnosis to determine the most likely condition.
To Prepare
Review the Skin Conditions document provided in this weeks Learning Resources, and select one condition to closely examine for this Lab Assignment.
Consider the abnormal physical characteristics you observe in the graphic you selected. How would you describe the characteristics using clinical terminologies?
Explore different conditions that could be the cause of the skin abnormalities in the graphics you selected.
Consider which of the conditions is most likely to be the correct diagnosis, and why.
Search the Walden library for one evidence-based practice, peer-reviewed article based on the skin condition you chose for this Lab Assignment.
Review the Comprehensive SOAP Exemplar found in this weeks Learning Resources to guide you as you prepare your SOAP note.
Download the SOAP Template found in this weeks Learning Resources, and use this template to complete this Lab Assignment.
The Lab Assignment
Choose one skin condition graphic (identify by number in your Chief Complaint) to document your assignment in the SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) note format rather than the traditional narrative style. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and the Comprehensive SOAP Template in this week’s Learning Resources for guidance. Remember that not all comprehensive SOAP data are included in every patient case.
Use clinical terminologies to explain the physical characteristics featured in the graphic. Formulate a differential diagnosis of three to five possible conditions for the skin graphic that you chose. Determine which is most likely to be the correct diagnosis and explain your reasoning using at least three different references, one reference from current evidence-based literature from your search and two different references from this weeks Learning Resources.
RUBRIC:
Using the SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) note format:
Create documentation, following SOAP format, of your assignment to choose one skin condition graphic (identify by number in your Chief Complaint). Use clinical terminologies to explain the physical characteristics featured in the graphic.
Formulate a different diagnosis of three to five possible considerations for the skin graphic. Determine which is most likely to be the correct diagnosis, and explain your reasoning using at least three different references from current evidence-based literature.
Written Expression and Formatting – Paragraph Development and Organization:
Paragraphs make clear points that support well-developed ideas, flow logically, and demonstrate continuity of ideas. Sentences are carefully focused–neither long and rambling nor short and lacking substance. A clear and comprehensive purpose statement and introduction are provided that delineate all required criteria.
Written Expression and Formatting – The paper follows correct APA format for title page, headings, font, spacing, margins, indentations, page numbers, running heads, parenthetical/in-text citations, and reference list.
You need to write about at least TWO works of literature (short stories and/or poems). The exception is if you want to write about Trifles: since that is a play you can write about it alone. This means your choices for what you will write about are:
Two short stories
Two poems
One short story and one poem
Trifles (and no other work of literature)
Look at our Blackboard website to see what we read this semester.
Why, You Reckon? and Harlem by Langston Hughes
discuss racism and injustice against Black people.
(This is what I want you to write the essay about )
This is a final paper so please write responsibly
what do the readings you chose say about race, racism, and culture?
YOU NEED AT LEAST TWO RELIABLE OUTSIDE RESEARCH SOURCES.
YOU CANNOT USE WIKIPEDIA!!! I AM NOT KIDDING!!! IF YOU CITE WIKIPEDIA YOU WILL FAIL THIS PAPER!!!
You CAN use materials from our class website, like an article, essay, or website link I posted.
I prefer books or the library online journal databases, but if you decide to do research on the internet, make sure you are using reputable websites. This means: no blogs (except living authors blogs); personal webpages; message boards; study websites; no Sparknotes; no social media websites like Facebook, twitter, tumblr, tiktok, Instagram, reddit, etc.; no answer websites like Yahoo Answers, 123 Answers, answers.com; no student videos or projects on YouTube, etc. Refer to in-class instructions or ask me if confused.
Your research sources will help you make your point about the reading(s) you picked. You should try to find something that either discusses the reading(s) you picked or something that gives you important background/historical information.
10. You need to have a SEPARATE WORKS CITED PAGE at the end of your essay.
This is a separate page with the words Works Cited centered at the top in bold.
On this page you list the information for BOTH the works you are writing ABOUT (your stories, poems, or Trifles) and your outside research sources in MLA format.
AVOID PLAGIARISM! You should say, in your own words, how the information you discovered helps you understand what you read. DO NOT COPY FROM YOUR SOURCE. THIS INCLUDES CUTTING AND PASTING FROM THE INTERNET. IF YOU PLAGIARIZE ON THIS ASSIGNMENT, YOU WILL FAIL THE PAPER AND PERHAPS THE ENTIRE COURSE.
1.) ESSAYS MUST BE TYPED. HAND-WRITTEN ESSAYS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
2.) ESSAYS MUST BE DOUBLE-SPACED. PLEASE DO NOT SINGLE-SPACE: IT IS VERY HARD TO READ!
3.) Font should be Times New Roman, 12 point (or similar please make sure it is readable!) Margins should be 1 inch on top, bottom, left, and right.

5.) When giving the title of an essay, story, or poem, capitalize every word in the title and put the title in quotation marks. Generally, do not capitalize small words like a, an, the, or, etc. unless they are the first word in the title.
Example: The Lottery, Winter Dreams
6.) Use italics for websites or titles of books, novels, or plays and capitalize as above.
Example: The Emily Dickinson Museum Website, Othello
7.) Use an authors full name (first and last name) the first time you mention it. From then on, use only the last name. DO NOT use only the authors first name. For example: Sylvia Plath and Plath, NOT Sylvia.
8.) If you are quoting from an outside source, you need to introduce the quote by giving the source, use quotation marks, and put the page on which the words appear in parentheses at the end of the quote (if applicable websites do not have page numbers).
Example: According to The National Organization for Women website, The proposed Comcast-NBC merger and the new deal between Google and Verizon is a feminist issue.
In No Impact Man, Colin Beavan writes, I wanted to have no environmental impact (14).

Case Study
Samuel J. is a 73-year-old male patient, who presents to you for his annual Medicare
Wellness physical with complaints of ongoing fatigue and insomnia.
At his visit today, Samuel has a weight gain of 15 pounds from the previous visit 6
months ago for a urinary tract infection. He also went to an urgent care clinic 4 months
ago and was diagnosed with another UTI, and was treated with antibiotics again. He
continues to have occasional nocturia but has no more dysuria, foul odor or other
urinary symptoms. He further expresses concerns over his nighttime insomnia, daytime
napping, slow weight gain, and growing lack of motivation to engage in his hobbies. He
is a Ham radio operator and is a member of a local club. He also plays tennis 1-2 times
a week, but states that he is sometimes short of breath when he plays tennis, especially
when it is quite cold. Sometimes his lower legs cramp when he plays tennis or climbs
stairs.
He has a part-time job at a local big box appliance and tech store which he formerly
enjoyed but now finds less so, even though his work friends are friendly. His wife of 45
years died about 18 months ago, and he is often lonely, although he has recently been
thinking about accepting the invitation of a widow in his neighborhood who keeps asking
him over for dinner. He grins when he says this, but says he is truly concerned that he is
not eating properly since his wife had done most of the grocery shopping and cooking,
and since her death he mostly eats microwave dinners that he knows are mostly full of
salt. His own father died at age 75 after complications of a stroke sustained at age 74,
and he does not want to end up the same way.
He has one daughter, son-in-law and 2 grandsons who lives about 10 miles away from
him and with whom he enjoys a close relationship. He has a military pension and Social
Security income and is covered by Medicare and Tricare supplemental insurance. His
home is easy to maintain and paid for, and his vehicle is paid for and in good condition.
Past medical history: Samuel was diagnosed with hypertension at age 42. He was
diagnosed with hypogonadism at age 55, BPH at age 65. Hernia surgery age 32 due to
military service in which he was a radio operator on a submarine.
Family medical history: Hypertension (both parents and siblings), stroke (father), and
diabetes (mother).
Social history: He lives alone, widowed, in a house in the inner city of a major
metropolitan area where air quality is often poor. He attends church regularly. Finances
stable, and most of his bills are covered by his Social Security and military retirement
income. His part time job supplements these sources of income. He is on Medicaid and
also has Tricare. Samuel smoked quite a bit for about 5 years during his early Navy
years, but he quit smoking when he his daughter was born. He now has an occasional
beer or whiskey with his other Navy buddies at the local bar. There is a good bit of
second hand smoke at this bar, and the air quality in his city is often poor. He is a Ham
radio operator and volunteers in emergency operations. He plays tennis at a local
community center once a week.
Medications: Furosemide 10mg PO QD; Lisinopril 20 mg QD, Rosuvastatin 20mg QD,
Tadalafil 5mg QD, Daily Aspirin 325mg, Daily Multivitamin, Daily Garlic tablet, Daily
Gingko (for memory).

One of the most hotly debated subjects in labor relations today is that of ‘Right to Work’ laws. It’s time to do some deeper research and take a position on this controversial issue. In a narrative, do the following:
1. What is the history of ‘Right to Work’ laws? Where did they come from? Who proposed them and why? Has their purpose or effect changed since original inception?
2. Accurately summarize both sides of the ‘Right to Work’ debate. What exactly is each side arguing, and what are the defenses to the claims of their opponents?
3. Articulate your own opinion on this issue. Are ‘Right to Work’ laws ethically sound? Are they good for unions? Good for employers? Good for employees? If one or more of these stakeholders are disadvantaged, how? Do the benefits of these laws outweigh the costs? Why or why not?
4. What is your prediction for ‘Right to Work’ laws in America? Currently, the country is divided more or less 50:50 in terms of states with and without such laws. Will they become the new norm? Or will they regress and be repealed in the states that have enacted them? Defend your predictions with sound reasoning.
