Guidelines
Write a concise summary (no longer than three pages) of the article, including key points about the pathology of the disease, nursing and medical management, and application of information to your professional nursing practice.
Submit a single document with summary, reference citation, answers to the test, and rubric. Use APA formatting and cite the journal article appropriately. Make sure to double space the document and use correct grammar and spelling.
NOTE: Supplement your summary by citing at least one other reference to support your analysis. The textbook can be used as this reference.
Most of these articles can be found through the library O. database – search by journals, then year, volume, and issue number. The journal article and test are listed separately in the Ovid database. Save a copy of each to your desktop. If you do not find the article in Ovid, go to ProQuest or EBSCO host databases. You do not need to pay for these services.
