Handof Report
Situation:
The patient is a 67-year-old male who was admitted to the Medical-Surgical Unit for monitoring prior
to undergoing an open cholecystectomy tomorrow morning. His wife is at the bedside. The patient’s
bowel sounds are hypoactive and his abdomen is firm and painful to light palpation. He complains of
abdominal pain radiating to the right shoulder, fever and episodes of nausea and vomiting. He states
his abdomen feels full and is requesting “something for pain.” He rates his pain as 6 out of 10.
Background:
The patient has been experiencing intermittent abdominal pain and nausea for the last several
weeks. In the last two days, he has suffered several bouts of vomiting that relieved the abdominal
pain. He saw a gastroenterologist, who ordered an abdominal ultrasound that revealed multiple
stones in the gallbladder and partial obstruction of the cystic duct by a stone. He has been diagnosed
with symptomatic cholelithiasis and cholecystitis. The patient has been scheduled for an open
cholecystectomy tomorrow morning, but he has been admitted to the hospital today so he can be
monitored. The surgeon explained he prefers to do an open cholecystectomy rather than a laparoscopic
procedure in order to explore the common bile duct for possible stones. The patient signed the surgical
consent form afer speaking to the surgeon. His cardiologist has cleared him for surgery.
