✓ :~~ John visits his general physician on Monday because he was feeling sick

over the weekend. When he is called back from the waiting room, the nurse

on staff takes his temperature, heart rate, and blood pressure. She then

asks John a series of questions about how he's been feeling lately. The nurse

notes his responses when he says he's been having difficulty breathing and

has been feeling very tired. She also sees on John's medical history that he

has had previous problems with his cholesterol levels and blood pressure.

John also has a blood sample taken during his doctor's visit.




Diagnosis

✓ :~~ The nurse looks over John's symptoms and notes that his heart-rate is

higher than average and his blood pressure is elevated. She also considers

that he's experienced fatigue and shortness of breath before when his

cholesterol levels were very high. The nurse determines that John is

experiencing Hyperlipidemia, also known as having high levels of fat within

the blood. John's blood tests confirm this hypothesis. The nurse is also

concerned that John is at risk for heart disease.




Planning

✓ :~~ John returns on Tuesday for a follow-up visit. The nurse sits down with

him in a closed room and explains his cholesterol levels and high blood

pressure. She suggests that John be put on medication to help lower these

numbers and recommends he exercise at least twice a week. The nurse also

tells John he should stay away from salty foods and eat less red meat. John

agrees with the nurse, and they setup a follow-up appointment two weeks

later. The nurse reminds John to call if there are any changes in his

condition, or if he starts to feel worse.




Implementation

✓ :~~ John is prescribed the medication and takes it as recommended. One

week later, he has a day where he feels especially sick and calls the doctor's

office. The nurse explains that the medication could cause nausea as a side-

effect and advises John to drink Ginger-Ale and avoid any foods that

generally upset his stomach. John continues taking the medication and goes

to the gym four times during the two-week period. Once the two weeks has

passed, he returns to the doctor's office for his follow-up appointment.
