    ASSIGNMENT GUIDANCE – NRSG258 ASSESSMENT 1: CASE STUDY
    Dear students here are some guidelines to assist you in writing Assessment 1: Case
    Study.
    If, after reading through these, you still have questions please post on the relevant
    forum. If you are still unsure then please contact your campus specific lecturer to
    arrange to discuss your assignment. We ask that you bring these guidelines to any
    meeting and highlight the areas about which you are still unsure.
    In this case study you do not need an introduction or conclusion for this case study
    of 1500 WORDS ± ± 10% due by midnight 8 th April Turnitin. Just answer the
    questions. Turnitin is located in your campus specific block.
    Although we suggest you do your background reading in the current textbooks for
    basic information, the case study also requires you to find current
    literature/research/articles to support your discussion throughout the case study.
    Do NOT use Better Health Channel, WedMed, dictionaries, encyclopaedias etc.
    These are NOT suitable academic sources. If you use these you will not meet the
    criteria for this question and you will lose marks.
    You must follow the APA referencing format as directed by ACU in your case study
    and in your reference list. The Library website has examples of how to do this
    referencing and you can find the correct format at the end of your lectures and
    tutorials as well as in the free Student Study Guide.
    This essay should have approximately 10 relevant sources. Textbooks, if cited,
    should be a range of medical-surgical, pathophysiology, anatomy & physiology and
    pharmacology for specific information e.g. organ function or drugs.
    Do not copy information from books or articles or information from previous
    students’ assignments. This is plagiarism and you will be heavily penalised. Turnitin
    will highlight copied information to markers.
     Please give a title to your essay e.g. Case Study – Louise and
    ensure your name and student number are on each page as a footer .
    Although you do not need a conclusion or introduction, and are answering
    each question, you must write in sentences not point form as this does
    not show critical thinking.
     Do not use abbreviations e.g. i.e. etc. in your essay. Write e.g. in full
    if you need to explain something further. Do not use etc. in an essay. This
    suggests to the marker that you do not know what else should go into your
    case study.
      You must explain any terms you use not just copy them out of a
    Page 2 of 4
    book/article/research. The markers need to know that you understand
    your chosen patient’s condition and management for safe care.
    ASSIGNMENT WRITING TIPS
    Question 1 (10%)
    In relation to your chosen patient, discuss the pathophysiology of their presenting
    condition and using evidence based literature explore current surgical treatment
    options for your patient (10%). (Suggested length for your answer approximately 350
    words).
     First, give a very brief overview of the anatomy and physiology
    i.e. what and where is it and how does it function. E.g. Louise –
    function of the thyroid gland, Zhao – function of the ovaries, Raoul –
    function of the knee joint (e.g. A and P textbooks e.g. Martini/Marieb
    and/or research/articles). You could write pages on the structure and
    function but you must do this in a 3-4 sentences.
     Then provide a definition of the presenting condition i.e. the
    pathophysiology and how the condition is currently treated surgically
    E.g. Louise – what is Grave’s Disease & current surgical treatment;
    Zhao what is polycystic ovaries & current surgical treatment; Raoul
    what is rheumatoid arthritis & current surgical treatment (you can find
    this information in pathophysiology textbooks for a description of the
    condition e.g. Bullock and Hales and current research for current
    surgical treatments) (remember the suggested word limit).
    Question 2 (15%)
    Critically discuss the assessment of ventilation, circulation and consciousness
    prior to the patient’s discharge from PARU. Discussion must relate to the effects of
    anaesthesia and surgery on these three physiological functions and be directly
    related to your chosen patient. (Suggested length for your answer approximately 700
    words).
     Note this says ‘critically discuss’. You need to support your
    discussion with a range of evidence. An example of critical
    discussion might be: whereas Jones (2010) suggested surgery as
    the best treatment, others (Brown 2012, Green 2013) suggested
    radiation OR a number of studies (Jones, 2010, Brown 2012, Green
    2013) have suggested that surgery is the best option for this
    condition.

     The markers want to know you understand the effects of
    anaesthetics/opioids/surgery on consciousness, breathing
    circulation, body temperature; potential changes in fluid
    volume/blood loss. Your discussion will demonstrate that you can
    provide safe patient care after surgery. NB: As this is a case study –
    all your discussion should be linked and specific to your chosen
    patient.

     The effects of anaesthetics and opioid analgesia is covered in your
    lectures and in pharmacology books e.g. Bryant & Knights 2015
    Ch14 (anaesthetics); Ch15 (opioids) & research. Up-To-Date is an
    online site, which reviews the current literature on various topics
    (search for this resource online) has information about general
    anaesthesia).
     An example for ventilation:
    You need to discuss the effects of anaesthetics and opioids on the
    respiratory system. This needs to be linked to your chosen patient
    and their vital signs in the post-anaesthetic recovery unit (PARU)
     Do the same for circulation & consciousness.
    Question 3 (10%)
    Develop a discharge plan to support your chosen patient on discharge home. Include any
    education you deem relevant, any referrals to allied health professional/s required, and
    discuss your rationale. (Suggested limit for your answer approximately 350 words).
    This answer should be supported by literature/research. In order to understand
    the discharge needs of the patient you must understand their condition and their
    presenting symptoms. Review your chosen case study to determine the possible
    discharge needs of your patient.
     If you just copy out a patient discharge advice sheet you will not
    meet the criteria for this question and you may fail this section.
     The discharge plan must be linked & specific to your patient e.g.
    think about the patient’s condition, surgery and situation and decide
    what referrals are appropriate to your chosen case and their
    surgery and the rationale for suggesting a specific referral. You might
    need to include members of the multidisciplinary team e.g.
    pharmacist as well as allied health professionals e.g. dietician.
     Inappropriate referrals show you do not understand the patient’s
    Page 4 of 4
    condition and therefore cannot give safe care and you will lose
    marks and may not meet the criteria for this question.
