Question

How are you going to mark the appropriate fields in the ROS section of the EMR?

"A patient with a history of ADHD, BPD, and GERD presents to the clinic to establish a new health care provider..."

Option 1: Cardiovascular symptoms
Option 2: Neurological symptoms
Option 3: Psychiatric symptoms
Option 4: Gastrointestinal symptoms

Answer 1

In the ROS section of the EMR, you would mark the neurological, psychiatric, and gastrointestinal symptom fields for a patient with ADHD, BPD, and GERD.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the ROS (Review of Systems) section of an EMR (Electronic Medical Record), the appropriate fields to mark for a patient with a history of ADHD, BPD, and GERD who presents to the clinic to establish a new health care provider would include:

1. Neurological symptoms: This category would cover the patient's ADHD history, as ADHD is a neurological disorder characterized by symptoms such as inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity.
2. Psychiatric symptoms: This category would cover the patient's BPD (Bipolar Disorder), which is a psychiatric disorder characterized by mood swings and episodes of mania and depression.
3. Gastrointestinal symptoms: This category would cover the patient's GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease), which is a gastrointestinal disorder characterized by acid reflux and heartburn.
