Patient JB, 39 yo Caucasian female, is

Patient JB, 39 yo Caucasian female, is seen by her care provider for a complaint of productive cough, weakness, and “I just haven’t felt good for the past 2 weeks.” The care provider completes an assessment by listening to her lungs by having her take 2 deep breaths and informs her that her lungs are clear and to take OTC cough medication and hydrate well. The next day, JB feels worse and visits a different care provider who at this time, assesses her head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat, auscultates her heart sounds, and hears a murmur (which she did not know she had), auscultates her lungs by having her to take 4 deep breaths, performs percussion techniques, and tells her there is fluid on her lungs, examines her lower extremities and notices that there is bilateral 2+ pitting edema, and lastly, reviews her vital signs and tells her that her heart rate is 120, respirations are 22, and she has a temp of 101. Questions: 1.) What questions would the APRN ask to obtain more details about this patient’s complaint? 2.) Which body systems would be examined by the APRN to provide HS with an explanation of his pain? 3.) What other concerns would you have for this patient that had just had surgery? 4.) Would additional labs and imaging be appropriate? If so, what would you order and why? SCIENCE HEALTH SCIENCE NURSING NURS 6512
