Accurate history taking of abdominal, urological, and gynecological complaints is essential for completing an assessment of the older adult. For this Assignment, as you examine this week’s patient case study, consider how you might evaluate and treat older adult patients who present with health concerns related to the abdominal, urological, or gynecological systems.
To prepare:
- Review the case study provided by your Instructor.
- Reflect on the patient’s symptoms and aspects of disorders that may be present.
- Consider how you might assess, perform diagnostic tests, and recommend medications to treat patients presenting with the symptoms in the case.
- Access the Focused SOAP Note Template in this week’s Resources.
The Assignment:
Complete the Focused SOAP Note Template provided for the patient in the case study. Be sure to address the following:
- Subjective: What was the patient’s subjective complaint? What details did the patient provide regarding their history of present illness and personal and medical history? Include a list of prescription and over-the-counter drugs the patient is currently taking. Compare this list to the American Geriatrics Society Beers Criteria®, and consider alternative drugs if appropriate. Provide a review of systems.
- Objective: What observations did you note from the physical assessment? What were the lab, imaging, or functional assessments results?
- Assessment: Provide a minimum of three differential diagnoses. List them from top priority to least priority. Compare the diagnostic criteria for each, and explain what rules each differential in or out. Explain you critical thinking process that led you to the primary diagnosis you selected. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case.
- Plan: Provide a detailed treatment plan for the patient that addresses each diagnosis, as applicable. Include documentation of diagnostic studies that will be obtained, referrals to other health-care providers, therapeutic interventions, education, disposition of the patient, caregiver support, and any planned follow-up visits.
