O: Objective
Information gathered during the physical examination by inspection, palpation, auscultation, and percussion. If unable to assess a body system, write “Unable to assess”. Document pertinent positive and negative assessment findings. Pertinent positive are the “abnormal” findings and pertinent “negative” are the expected normal findings. Separate the assessment findings accordingly and be detailed.

A: Assessment
Medical Diagnoses. Provide 3 differential diagnoses (DDx) which may provide an etiology for the CC. The first diagnosis (presumptive diagnosis) is the diagnosis with the highest priority. Provide the ICD-10 code and pertinent findings to support each diagnosis.

Diagnosis |
ICD-10 Code |
Pertinent Findings |
| Moderate Persistent Asthma | ICD-10 J45.4x | SOB, adventitious sounds (wheezing in posterior BLL) |
|
Noncompliance with medication regimen |

Test |
Rationale/Citation |
||
| ABG, blood count, pulmonary function, oxygen saturation Chest x-ray, allergy skin testing, | ABG: it is important because it can reveals decreased in PO2, suggesting mild respiratory alkalosis Blood count: can reveal eosinophil count elevated Pulmonary Function: it is important because it can reveals increase in in residual volume, decrease in vital capacity, decreased in forced expiratory volume, and peak expiratory flow. Oxygen saturation: it is of significant importance because it can reveal low oxygen level specially when pt is having an asthma attach Chest x ray: this test important tool when treating and diagnosis asthmatic patient because it allows the physician to ruled out other condition such as pneumonia, bronchitis or even TB. Additionally; it reveals the location of the asthma exacerbation (air trapping extend or the inflammation extend).

Furthermore, because the clinical finding of this test would help pt to manage better her asthma. | ||

It is essential because pt requires additional education, guidance and compliance to therapy to achieve optimal wellness and management in her asthma condition. Also, because it could a possibility that Tina is becoming tolerant or unresponsive to her albuterol treatment and she might need additional medication, treatments, diagnostics, or intervention to manage better her asthma. Additionally, an allergy testing will be beneficial for pt to identify her asthma and allergens triggers that exacerbate her symptoms.
Pt is diabetic type II and she is noncompliance with diabetes regimen. Pt will be in steroids, which increase her blood sugar level.
