Name: Emily Carter
Age: 5 years old

Emily provides limited input due to age
Case Overview
Emily Carter, a 5-year-old female, presents to the pediatric primary care
clinic with her mother, who reports a persistent cough and difficulty
breathing for the past three days. The i-Human simulation for NRNP
6512 (Week 4) challenges learners to perform a thorough pediatric
health assessment, including a detailed history from the caregiver and
patient (as appropriate), a focused physical exam, a differential
diagnosis for respiratory symptoms, targeted diagnostic tests, and a
patient- and family-centered management plan. The case emphasizes
clinical reasoning, age-appropriate assessment techniques, caregiver
communication, and integration of 2025 healthcare technologies to
optimize care.
