o COPD (3-4 slides)
o Hypertension (3-4 slides)
o Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (3-4 slides)
o Pain management (3-4 slides)
o References (1 slide)

Review the following Shadow Health© Focused Exams assignments:
• UTI with Antibiotic Sensitivity
• Community-Acquired Pneumonia
• COPD
• Hypertension and Type 2 Diabetes
• Pain management
Discuss the medications prescribed during each Shadow Health© Focused Exam and an alternative for each medication in the case studies. After each case study, you will describe evidence-based practice guidelines for each condition and will briefly share your findings. Your presentation should include:
• Prescribed drug:
o Name, drug class, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and uses
o Diagram mechanism of action in the body
o Possible drug interactions and pharmacogenomic considerations
o Monitoring parameters and understanding of success with medication
o Possible side effects and patient education
• Alternative Drug:
o Name, drug class, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and uses
o Diagram mechanism of action in the body
o Possible drug interactions and pharmacogenomic considerations
o Monitoring parameters and understanding of success with medication
o Possible side effects and patient education
Locate at least one scholarly article, written within the last 5 years, that discusses the most recent recommendations/guidelines for the treatment of each case study and briefly discuss your findings and implications for clinical practice.
