Abstract

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 7.5% of children under the age of 18 in the United States have an asthma diagnosis. Nurse practitioners will manage asthma for pediatric patients in well and acute primary care clinic visits. In both types of visits, nurse practitioner students must be able to assess the child and develop a treatment plan. When presented with a patient case, learners must have opportunities to demonstrate clinical reasoning progress through appropriate assessment and the ability to develop an evidence-based intervention or plan of care. This article describes an interactive, online, self-paced learning activity delivered via an online format designed to challenge learners to build these skills via an interactive, nonlinear, simulated patient visit.
