Risk
Assessment and Risk Characterization Project: Utilizes
evidence based research of one specific disease concept of your choice to
determine risk assessment and risk characterization using quantitative skills and descriptive analysis such
as odds ratio or case/control,
percentages, or logistic regression model.
This assignment uses statistics to assess the risk factors. Introduction: Pick one
disease process, e.g., Diabetes Type 2, provide an explanation of the
disease, based on pathophysiological concepts. Also provide epidemiological evidence. Pick 2 non-modifiable risk
factors (e.g. genetics, age, gender). Describe how the non-modifiable risk
factor contributes to the disease process utilizing pathophysiological
concepts.
Pick 2 modifiable risk
factors (e.g.lack of exercise,
dietary habits, smoking, ) Describe how the modifiable risk factor
contributes to the disease process utilizing pathophysiological concepts.
Describe how the effects of
modifiable risk factors influences the non-modifiable risk factors.
Conclusion:
In addition to modifying risk factors, describe medical or nursing
interventions to help treat or even cure disease. What are some Preventive
screenings? Do you think preventive screenings reduce risk? Grading Rubric for
Risk Assessment and Risk Characterization Project for a total of 20 points
