The first paragraph is an introduction to your paper. As a general rule, it should be at least 3 sentences long and should introduce the reader to your paper.
Pathophysiology
Above is an example of a level one heading. Introduce this section of your paper in one sentence (i.e. “In this section, the author of this paper will discuss…”). After introducing your topic, you will write 2-3 paragraphs discussing the pathophysiology of the chosen disease process, including the etiology and risk factors, pathogenesis (NOT just a definition of the disease), and clinical manifestations.
Patient Experience
Above is an example of a level two heading, meaning the content addressed in this paragraph will be pertinent to the level one heading above it (in this case, Pathophysiology). In this section, specific examples of the impact of this disorder on the person interviewed will be included (clinical manifestations they experience, the impact on their life, etc.). At least one paragraph (three sentences) should be included here. This information can also be incorporated into the “Pathophysiology” level one heading paragraphs if you prefer (this section could then be deleted); An example would be as follows: “The clinical manifestations of [disease process] are [list all clinical manifestations]. When interviewing the patient, he/she stated that she experiences [list of clinical manifestations experienced by person].”

This information can also be incorporated into the “Treatment” level one heading paragraphs if you prefer (this section could then be deleted); An example would be as follows: “The medications that can be used to treat [disease process] are [list all medications]. When interviewing the patient, he/she stated that he/she has been prescribed [medication(s) used by patient].”
