The body is constantly sending signals
about its health. One of the most easily
recognized signals is pain.
Musculoskeletal conditions comprise one
of the leading causes of severe long-term
pain in patients. The musculoskeletal
system is an elaborate system of
interconnected levers that provides the
body with support and mobility. Because
of the interconnectedness of the
musculoskeletal system, identifying the
causes of pain can be challenging.
Accurately interpreting the cause of
musculoskeletal pain requires an
assessment process informed by patient
history and physical exams.
In this Discussion, you will consider case studies that describe abnormal findings in patients seen
in a clinical setting.

https://waldenu.instructure.com/courses/85632/discussion_topics/760465?module_item_id=2747340 2/5
To prepare:
By Day 1 of this week, you will be assigned to one of the following specific case studies for this
Discussion. Please see the “Course Announcements” section of the classroom for your
assignment from your Instructor.
Your Discussion post should be in the Episodic/Focused SOAP Note format rather than the
traditional narrative style Discussion posting format. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and
the Episodic/Focused SOAP Template in the Week 5 Learning Resources for guidance.
Remember that all Episodic/Focused SOAP notes have specific data included in every patient
case.
Review the following case studies:
Case 1: Back Pain
(https://waldenu.instructure.com/courses/85632/files/5407561/preview) A 42-year-old male reports
pain in his lower back for the past month. The pain sometimes radiates to his left leg. In
determining the cause of the back pain, based on your knowledge of anatomy, what nerve roots
might be involved? How would you test for each of them? What other symptoms need to be
explored? What are your differential diagnoses for acute low back pain? Consider the possible
origins using the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) guidelines as a framework.
What physical examination will you perform? What special maneuvers will you perform?
Be sure to review the Learning Resources before completing this activity.

A 46-year-old female reports pain in both of her
ankles, but she is more concerned about her
right ankle. She was playing soccer over the
weekend and heard a “pop.” She is able to
bear weight, but it is uncomfortable. In
determining the cause of the ankle pain, based
on your knowledge of anatomy, what foot
structures are likely involved? What other
symptoms need to be explored? What are your
differential diagnoses for ankle pain? What
physical examination will you perform? What

you apply the Ottawa ankle rules to determine
if you need additional testing?

Case 3: Knee Pain
(https://waldenu.instructure.com/courses/85632/files
/5407665/preview)
A 15-year-old male reports dull pain in both
knees. Sometimes one or both knees click, and
the patient describes a catching sensation
under the patella. In determining the causes of
the knee pain, what additional history do you
need? What categories can you use to
differentiate knee pain? What are your specific
differential diagnoses for knee pain? What
physical examination will you perform? What
anatomic structures are you assessing as part
of the physical examination? What special
maneuvers will you perform?
With regard to the case study you were assigned:
Review this week's Learning Resources, and consider the insights they provide about the case
study.
Consider what history would be necessary to collect from the patient in the case study you
were assigned.
Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate to gather more
information about the patient's condition. How would the results be used to make a diagnosis?
Identify at least five possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for
the patient.
Note: When you submit your initial post, please include a header as the first line
indicating your assigned case study. For example, “Review of Case Study ___.” Fill in
the blank with the number of the case study you were assigned.
Post an episodic/focused note about the patient in the case study to which you were assigned
using the episodic/focused note template provided in the Week 5 resources. Provide evidence
from the literature to support diagnostic tests that would be appropriate for each case. List five
different possible conditions for the patient's differential diagnosis, and justify why you selected
each.

ACADEMIC SUCCESS AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN PART 3: RESEARCH ANALYSIS
Architect Daniel Libeskind is credited with saying “To provide meaningful architecture is not to parody history, but to articulate it.” The suggestion is that his work does not copy the efforts of others but relies on it.
Understanding the work of others is critically important to new work. Contributions to the nursing body of knowledge can happen when you are able to analyze and articulate the efforts of previous research. Research analysis skills are therefore critical tools for your toolbox.
In this Assignment, you will locate relevant existing research. You also will analyze this research using a tool helpful for analysis.

Present your approved intervention to the patient, family, or group and record a 10–15 minute video reflection on your practicum experience, the development of your capstone project, and your personal and professional growth over the course of your RN-to-BSN program. Document the time spent (your practicum hours) with these individuals or group in the Capella Academic Portal Volunteer Experience Form.

Introduction
Baccalaureate-prepared nurses have many opportunities to reflect on their contributions to patient care outcomes during clinical experiences. Research suggests that creating and sharing video reflections may enhance learning (Speed, Lucarelli, & Macaulay, 2018).
For this assessment, you'll present your approved intervention to the patient, family, or group and reflect on various aspects of your capstone practicum experience. Such reflection will give you a chance to discuss elements of the project of which you are most proud and aspects of the experience that will help you grow in your personal practice and nursing career.
Reference

Instructions
Complete this assessment in two parts: (a) present your approved intervention to the patient, family, or group and (b) record a video reflection on your practicum experience, the development of your capstone project, and your personal and professional growth over the course of your RN-to-BSN program.
Part 1
Present your approved intervention to the patient, family, or group. Plan to spend at least 3 practicum hours exploring these aspects of the problem with the patient, family, or group. During this time, you may also consult with subject matter and industry experts of your choice. Be sure you've logged all of your practicum hours in Capella Academic Portal.
The BSN Capstone Course (NURS-FPX4900 ) requires the completion and documentation of nine (9) practicum hours. All hours must be recorded in the Capella Academic Portal. Please review the
BSN Practicum Campus page for more information and instructions on how to log your hours.
Use the
Intervention Feedback Form: Assessment 5 [PDF]
Download Intervention Feedback Form: Assessment 5 [PDF]as a guide to capturing patient, family, or group feedback about your intervention. You'll include the feedback as part of your capstone reflection video.
Part 2
Record a 10–15 minute video reflection on your practicum experience, the development of your capstone project, and your personal and professional growth over the course of your RN-to-BSN program. A transcript of your video is not required.
You're welcome to use any tools and software with which you are comfortable, but make sure you're able to submit the deliverable to your faculty. Capella offers Kaltura, a program that records audio and video. Refer to
Using Kaltura for more information about this courseroom tool.
Note: If you require the use of assistive technology or alternative communication methods to participate in these activities, please contact
[email protected] to request accommodations. If you're unable to record a video, please contact your faculty as soon as possible to explore options for completing the assessment.
