Write a scholarly case study that will compare and contrast two possible ways of treating a chronic health condition: Aggressive lifestyle modifications (LSM) vs pharmacologic therapy for weight loss or for dyslipidemia
Select a chronic health issue you may have encountered in your clinical rotations. You may either recall a real patient you saw with this condition or you may create a fictitious patient for the paper. You will write a paper about this patient where you will compare and contrast two different ways of treating the problem, both with published peer-reviewed literature to support the treatment plans. After analyzing the options, you will choose the most appropriate plan for the patient’s scenario, based on their unique and individual health needs and desires. A SOAP note is not required and should not be submitted as an appendix. To support your progression in master’s level writing, you will integrate subjective and objective information into the paper to create a scholarly case study, in third-person language, worthy of publication.
