NU545-811 physio-patho adv nrsg

Overview

  1. Choose ONE endocrine gland (e.g., thyroid, pituitary, adrenal, pancreas, parathyroid, hypothalamus, etc.).
  2. Teach your peers about your gland by creating a post that:
    • Explains its normal function and the hormones it produces
    • Discusses hypo- and hyper- functioning of the gland, including what happens in the body and key clinical signs
    • Summarizes how it is diagnosed and managed.
  3. Be creative in your delivery — you might use a brief case study, a patient scenario, a visual analogy, a comparison chart, or a creative metaphor to make your post memorable.
