Week Three Discussion Question
This week we briefly looked at the pathophysiology and alterations of hormonal regulation.
Thyroid Dysfunction and Diabetes Mellitus are a few of the more common alterations of hormone regulation. There are many different complications associated with each of these diseases. This week you need to pick a disease process that would fall under hormonal regulation.
Once you have identified and described disease process, then identify the complication (meaning discuss what is going in the body related to the complication), list any nursing interventions or teaching that you can provide to the patient. If one of your peers already picked a topic such as diabetes or thyroid you can still use it just pick a different complication that it can cause and list different nursing interventions and education. Please try to provide different information.
Remember to cite your sources.
