Assessment of the Cardiovascular System I: Subjective Data01:23

Assessment of the Cardiovascular System I: Subjective Data

639
A thorough health history and physical assessment are essential for identifying cardiovascular disease (CVD) symptoms and distinguishing them from other health issues.
Initial Enquiry
Ask the patient about their primary concern and thoroughly explore all reported symptoms.
Medical History
Investigate past illnesses affecting the cardiovascular system, such as angina, anemia, rheumatic fever, congenital heart disease, stroke, thrombophlebitis, dysrhythmias, varicosities
Inquire about symptoms...

The physical assessment examines the patient for objective data that defines the patient's condition, and aids in formulating the nursing care plan. The purpose of physical assessment is a health status appraisal, which includes identifying health problems, and establishing a database for nursing intervention.
The principles to begin the physical assessment include conducting a comprehensive or problem-related history in a quiet, well-lit room, emphasizing privacy and comfort for the...

Pulse rhythm

1.2K
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Informatics
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Lack of clear guidelines for suspected COVID-19 infections.
  • Telecommunication assessments strain healthcare systems.
  • Need for efficient patient screening during novel disease outbreaks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Develop a web-based application for public use.
  • Aid patients in determining appropriate medical care seeking during outbreaks.
  • Improve efficiency of medical resource allocation.

Main Methods:

  • Algorithm developed through consultations with 6 physicians experienced in COVID-19 care.
  • Focus on criteria for patient testing to optimize resource use.
  • Mobile-friendly web application deployed; usage data collected March 1-27, 2020.

Main Results:

  • Algorithm incorporates epidemiological factors, fever, and symptoms.
  • 83,460 users accessed the application 105,508 times.
  • Significant usage from outside Korea; similar adoption across age groups despite varying digital literacy.

Conclusions:

  • An expert-opinion-based algorithm and web application for patient screening were successfully developed.
  • This tool is valuable when information on novel diseases is limited.
  • Facilitates efficient allocation of medical resources during health crises.
