Instructions:
To create a focused/episodic note, you must make up information for all aspects. I strongly encourage you to review previous feedback. In some cases, there are notes still being submitted that do no incorporate feedback. For example, your HPI should capture all aspects of the LOCATES mnemonic. Medical conditions listed for the past medical history should reflect the year of the diagnosis not age. Calculate the year of the diagnosis. How is the condition managed? There are four categories for allergies food, drugs, environmental, and latex. Seasonal is not a fifth category. It should be listed under environmental. Personal/Social, Sexual/Reproductive, and Health Maintenance should be robust and written in narrative format.
With regard to the case study you were assigned:
Review this weeks Learning Resources, and consider the insights they provide about the case study.
Consider what history would be necessary to collect from the patient in the case study you were assigned.
Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate to gather more information about the patients condition. How would the results be used to make a diagnosis?
Identify at least five possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for the patient.
