The purpose of this paper is to discuss the results of a comprehensive health assessment on a patient of my choosing. This comprehensive assessment included the patient 's complete health history and a head-to-toe physical examination. The complete health history information was obtained by interviewing the patient, who was considered to be a reliable source. Other sources of data, such as medical records, were not available at the time of the interview. Physical examination data was obtained

Visual fields full to confrontation. Extraocular muscles intact. Pupils are slightly enlarged on the left compared to the right, which she states is old since her eye injury. They do respond directly and consensually. Normal facial symmetry, sensation, and movement. Tongue and uvula are midline. Normal shoulder shrug. Normal auditory acuity.

Breasts: no masses, no nipple retraction, no discharge. Heart: S1 and S2, no gallops, rubs, or murmurs appreciated. Abdomen is scaphoid, soft and non-tender with positive bubble sounds. Pelvic/ Rectal: deferred as patient has recently visited her GYN for a routine Pap smear. Neurologic exam reveals normal motor strength in all muscle

Patient was in the ER room when first seen. PT was with her family members and family states that she speaks little English and that she has had abdominal pain for the past day along with bloody stools. Family states that she is on calcium supplements and no other medications. Last oral intake is 24 hours ago. Family states no known past medical history. Pt is in the hospital bed in the fetal position and towards the right side. Patient's airway is clear and breathing is normal. Skin is warm and dry. Patent is AAOx4. Assessment of head, neck, and chest show no signs of deformities. Abdominal area not assessed due to severe pain. Back is without deformity. The upper extremity shows no sign of deformities or trauma. The lower extremity shows

Three different measurements were taken before and after the study. They included, pain intensity, disability, and quality of life. Pain was taken using a visual analog scale (VAS) which ranges from 0 to 10; 0 equaling no pain at all and 10 equaling the worst pain ever felt. Disability was taken using the Neck Disability Index (NDI). The NDI consisted of 10 items and were scored using percentages, the higher the percentage the higher the disability. And lastly, quality of life was taken using the Medical Outcome Study Short-Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36). Scores in SF-36 ranged from 0 to 100 and the higher the patients number got, the better quality of life.

She was tender in the lumber spine and has a scar at the lower lumbar spine from her previous operations. Her feet are somewhat flat with tenderness across the

Moving further into the physical assessment I’d inspect the integumentary system for indications of cyanosis, or pallor, I’d also not mucosa membranes, and nail beds including capillary refill. I’d auscultate all lung lobes for adventitious sounds, percuss to determine if there the appropriate resonance or an abnormal finding that would warrant further assessment. Palpating for crepitus, tactile fremitus, or tenderness also aid in identifying underlying lung complications. Noting if the patient has sputum production is also helpful in identifying the cause of dyspnea, it is important to inspect produced sputum and possibly collect for further lab testing (Ignatavicius & Workman,
