I-HUMAN CASE STUDY: EVALUATING
AND MANAGING CARDIOVASCULAR
CONDITIONS
Because cardiovascular conditions are preventable and manageable, it is important that
the advanced practice nurse use both their understanding of the cardiovascular system
and the impact of patient factors and behaviors that might increase patient risk of such
conditions. This critical information can guide you in immediately identifying signs and
symptoms that can inform differential diagnoses and lead to identification of appropriate
treatment options and a treatment plan.
For this Case Study Assignment, you will analyze an i-Human simulation case study about
an adult patient with a cardiovascular condition. Based on the patient’s information, you
will formulate a differential diagnosis, evaluate treatment options, and create an
appropriate treatment plan for the patient.

WEEKLY RESOURCES
TO PREPARE:
•

•
Review this week’s Learning Resources. Consider how to assess, diagnose, and
treat patients with cardiovascular conditions.
Access i-Human from this week’s Learning Resources and review this week’s iHuman case study. Based on the provided patient information, think about the
health history you would need to collect from the patient.
Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate to
gather more information about the patient’s condition. Reflect on how the
results would be used to make a diagnosis.
Identify three to five possible conditions that may be considered in a
differential diagnosis for the patient.
Consider the patient’s diagnosis. Think about clinical guidelines that might
support this diagnosis.
Develop a treatment plan for the patient that includes health promotion and
patient education strategies for patients with cardiovascular conditions.
Assignment
As you interact with this week’s i-Human patient, complete the assigned case study. For
guidance on using i-Human, refer to the i-Human Graduate Programs Help link within the iHuman platform.
