The symptoms include headache, fatigue, and breathing problems (Ong et al., 2019). People develop high blood pressure due to various reasons. Some of them include genetic factors or traumatic experiences in life. Blood pressure require monitoring and adherence to treatment to ensure the condition do not deteriorate into severe levels.<br \/>\nAortic coarctation:<br \/>\nAortic coarctation is the narrowing or constriction of the aorta. The condition prompts the heart to pump harder to get sufficient blood through the arteries and other parts of the body. The condition is not evident until adulthood (Bruse et al., 2017). One of the common symptoms of the disease is high blood pressure. Diagnosis involves EKG or chest X-ray.<br \/>\nMalignant hypertension:<br \/>\nMalignant hypertension is a type of high blood pressure that causes organ damage. Malignant high blood pressure is typically above 180\/120mm\/hg. The condition should be treated as an emergency (Rubin et al., 2019). It can cause significant damage to essential organs such as the kidney or brain. Damage of the essential organs can undermine the health of an individual. Failure to treat the condition can lead to fatalities. Statistics indicate that patients are at a high risk of death if malignant hypertension is not treated.<br \/>\nAssessment\/Plan<br \/>\nCirculatory \u2013 essential hypertension, current assessment, and plan, continue the current medication regime.<br \/>\nRelevant medications: Carvedilol (COREG) 12.5mg tablet.<br \/>\nLosartan (COZAAR) 25mg tablet<br \/>\nOther orders: Ambulatory to home health.<br \/>\nHFpEF (heart failure with preserved injection fraction) CMS\/HCC<br \/>\nCurrent assessment and plan<br \/>\nContinue with f\/up with Dr. Wayhs.<br \/>\nContinue losartan, carvedilol, and BP control.<br \/>\nRelevant medications<br \/>\nCarvedilol (COREG) 12.5mg tablet<br \/>\nLosartan (COZAAR) 25mg tablet<\/p>\n<p>Other orders<br \/>\nAmbulatory referral to home health<\/p>\n<p>Digestive<br \/>\nMorbid obesity (CMS\/HCC)<br \/>\nCurrent assessment and plan<br \/>\nDiscussed the patient\u2019s BMI with her<br \/>\nThe discussed DASH diet, continue f\/up with endocrinology.<\/p>\n<p>Relevant orders<br \/>\nAmbulatory referral to home health<\/p>\n<p>Musculoskeletal:<br \/>\nOsteoarthritis of multiple joints<br \/>\nCurrent assessment and plan<br \/>\nLong hx of chronic arthritis in knees, back<br \/>\nContinue ice\/heat PRN \u2013 planning to star using heat pad again.<br \/>\nVoltaren gel RX sent today<br \/>\nRelevant medication<br \/>\nDiclofenac sodium (Voltaren) 1% gel<\/p>\n<p>Relevant orders:<br \/>\nAmbulatory referral to home health<\/p>\n<p>Others &#8211; limited mobility<br \/>\nCurrent assessment and plan<br \/>\nWould continue to benefit from HHC services, including skilled RN and home health aide \u2013 referral sent to HHC today.<\/p>\n<p>Return in about 3 months (around) 10\/16\/2020 for HTN and OA.<br \/>\nI have reviewed the history, exam, assessment, and plan with the resident and agree with conclusions, exceptions to the elements will be noted.<br \/>\nThe information shows that the patient should contact the hospital or visit the facility for further analysis. The analysis, including vital signs and physical examination, is crucial in making conclusions about a patient&#8217;s health condition. During the visit, the patient should report the progress since the last medical analysis. The patient should continue with a balanced diet. It is important to continue adhering with the current medication to eliminate the risks associated non-compliance with the medication. The patient should have blood pressure tool kit to assess their blood pressure to ensure their health condition do not deteriorate without their knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>References<br \/>\nBruse, J.
