Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA) main focus on diagnosis and treatment

2-point type, double-spaced, APA or MLA formatting. You must use complete sentences (no run-ons or fragments), proper grammar, spelling, punctuation and reasonable breaks for paragraphs. (It is better to have several shorter paragraphs than one that is a page long.) We have writing tutors/coaches as well as SHLC tutors who LOVE to help with papers. Please take advantage of them or another editor. (This will be hard to do if you put off this project and do it the night before.) No matter how informative your paper, if it contains technical errors, it will not receive a good grade. Include the name of all group members and your class section at the beginning of the paper.

Your paper must (1) include the name of the disease you are presenting Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of the nervous system which prevents the feeling of pain or temperature, and prevents a person from sweating.. Write out the entire name the first time you refer to it, and then you may use initials, if appropriate, after you have defined their meaning. (2) Describe the disease,. Make sure to (3) review any normal or abnormal anatomy and physiology necessary for a complete understanding of the illness. You should also address how the illness is (4)diagnosed and (5)treated, including methods of preventing the disease (if that is possible).

If you discuss any particular medication you must describe what it is, what it does and how it helps. (For instance, instead of saying, “Patients with severe allergies can take Benedryl to decrease their symptoms.” you should write, “Patients with severe Type I hypersensitivities can take an antihistamine such as diphenhydramine {note use of generic drug name}, which blocks histamine receptors and prevents histamine from binding to these receptors and causing allergy symptoms like runny nose, itching eyes and hives.)
(10) Address the personal side of the disorder. How is a person’s and his or her family’s life typically affected by this disorder? What does daily life look like (lots of therapies, surgeries, medications, special schooling, food, equipment?) Is survival usually measured in years, weeks, days? Be sure you read at least one (preferably two or more) personal stories (this is the only place where a blog would be a valid source) about a person or family dealing with the disorder to give you perspective.
