Module 3 Case Study AP1

Alyssa is a 74-year-old female patient who presents to her primary care provider for a
routine physical. She states that she feels “quite healthy” and has no complaints other
than mild back pain. She has a family history of various cancers, diabetes, and
osteoporosis, so she knows that it is important to stay active and keep up with screenings
and annual physical exams. Alyssa’s provider finds that she has lost 10 pounds since last
year’s exam. She is almost a full inch shorter, as well.

Alyssa’s provider suspects that she may have osteoporosis. Which other two factors would
support that other diagnosis?
Selected A history of smoking and being post-menopausal

would be an indication that osteoporosis is a possibility for this back pain.
