Handout Date______

Directions: Read the scenario and answer the following questions. You may record class discussions on the back of the handout as necessary.

CC: A 50 year-old woman presents with chest pain and burping exacerbated by eating.

HPI: The patient states that her symptoms are worsened when she lies down.

She has a 30 year history of smoking (1/2 pack per day), and is currently being treated with diltiazem for hypertension.

PE: VS: BP = 146/92, HR = 82, RR = 18. Physical examination reveals a tender epigastrium on deep palpation.

Labs: Endoscopy obtained mucosal biopsies show changes to the normal esophageal mucosa.

Imaging: A barium swallow study reveals refluxed barium back into the esophagus from the stomach.

1. What does the word “exacerbated” mean?

2. Where is the epigastric region of the abdomen?

3. Which of the vital signs is abnormal? What is the correct medical term for this normal vital sign?

4. What is an endoscope?

5. Is this patient’s chest pain caused by a cardiac (heart) condition? (Give your reasons)

6. What conditions other than cardiac disease can commonly cause chest pain?

7. Why does this patient’s pain worsen when lying down?

8. What is your diagnosis for this patient?
