b”nAssignment 1: Differential Diagnosis for Skin ConditionsProperly identifying the cause and type of a patientxe2x80x99s skin condition involves a process of elimination known as differential diagnosis. Using this process, a health professional can take a given set of physical abnormalities, vital signs, health assessment findings, and patient descriptions of symptoms, and incrementally narrow them down until one diagnosis is determined as the most likely cause.xc2xa0In this Assignment, you will examine several visual representations of various skin conditions, describe your observations, and use the techniques of differential diagnosis to determine the most likely condition.To prepare:xc2xb7 Review the Skin Conditions document provided in this weekxe2x80x99s Learning Resources, and select one condition to closely examine for this Assignment.xc2xb7 Consider the abnormal physical characteristics you observe in the graphic you selected. How would you describe the characteristics using clinical terminologies?xc2xb7 Explore different conditions that could be the cause of the skin abnormalities in the graphics you selected.xc2xb7 Consider which of the conditions is most likely to be the correct diagnosis, and why.xc2xb7 Download the SOAP Template found in this weekxe2x80x99s Learning Resources.To complete:xc2xb7 Choose one skin condition graphic (identify by number in your Chief Complaint) to document your assignment in the SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) note format, rather than the traditional narrative style. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and the Comprehensive SOAP Template in this week’s Learning Resources for guidance. Remember that not all comprehensive SOAP data are included in every patient case.xc2xb7 Use clinical terminologies to explain the physical characteristics featured in the graphic. Formulate a differential diagnosis of three to five possible conditions for the skin graphic that you chose. Determine which is most likely to be the correct diagnosis and explain your reasoning using at least 3 different references from current evidence based literature.xc2xa0Links:http://www.skinsight.com/professionalshttps://www.aafp.org/afp/2010/0315/p726.htmlhttps://www.aafp.org/afp/2010/0315/p735.html “
