How to Take a Patient’s Medical History
Taking a patient’s medical history is a necessary part of working in hospitals, health centers, doctors’ offices or other health care centers. It involves asking the patient about her reason for the visit, and then asking about her health history, as well as the histories of her immediate family members. It isn’t difficult, but, depending on the patient, it can be time consuming. Do your best to keep the patient focused, and take good notes as they speak.
Instructions
Ask about the patient’s current problem, or the reason for the visit. This includes asking about the symptoms, how long the problem has existed, and if it has changed at all (gotten worse or better) in that time. You also need to ask if this particular complaint, or something similar, has been a problem before.
Find out which medications, if any, the patient is currently taking. Also ask about any recently taken medications. Sometimes the side effects of a particular medication can cause symptoms that require the patient to seek care. At this point, you will also probably ask for the patient’s weight and height, or even measure them yourself if needed.
Develop a medical history for the patient. What medications are they allergic to? What serious illnesses or injuries have they had in the past? This is essential information. If a patient is allergic to penicillin, for example, there are a range of medications that cannot be given. Taking the history of previous medical issues may allow you to see any connections between the conditions.
Inquire about the patient’s family medical history. This usually involves asking about the current and previous health issues of siblings, parents, aunts and uncles, and grandparents. As many conditions are genetic, knowing that there is a family history of diabetes, heart disease or some other health issue may be relevant to the patient’s current complaint.
Find out the patient’s social history. Does he or she smoke, drink or do drugs? Have they done any of these things in the past? Depending on the reason for the visit, you may also need to ask about the patient’s sexual history or their fitness and nutrition habits. This is also when you will ask about depression, anxiety and their current living situation and support.
Complete a systems review. Start at the head, and work your way down. Ask about any skin conditions, cramping, aches and pains, dizziness or any other problems the patient might have that they haven’t mentioned. Patients won’t always tell you everything, because they may think a symptom is unrelated or unimportant. When you take a patient’s medical history, you need to find out about these potential complaints, and put them into the notes. They may be essential to the diagnosis.
How to collect history in cardiac patients?
History
The most common and most important cardiac symptoms and history are:
Chest pain, tightness or discomfort.
Shortness of breath.
Palpitations.
Syncope (‘blackouts’, ‘faints’, ‘collapse’) or dizziness.
Related cardiovascular history, including transient ischaemic attacks, stroke, peripheral vascular disease and peripheral oedema.
Chest pain
See separate articles Chest pain and Cardiac-type chest pain presenting in primary care.
Chest pain is very important as a symptom of heart disease, but is sometimes difficult to evaluate.
Location: usually in the front of the chest (retrosternal) but can also be in the upper abdomen, neck, jaw, left arm or left shoulder.
Radiation: may spread to the neck, jaw, back, left or right arm.
Nature: chest pain due to cardiac ischaemia is typically tight and crushing in quality.
Patients tend to describe the angina pains with the flat of their hand horizontally across the middle of their chest; they tend to describe oesophageal spasms with a clenched fist at the upper xiphisternum edge, moving in a vertical manner.
Patients may refer to anginal pain as indigestion.
Other features include duration, aggravating and relieving factors, and associated symptoms eg nausea and/or vomiting, sweating, dizziness, and palpitations.
Breathlessness
See separate Breathlessness article.
Cardiac causes include severe pulmonary oedema, acute myocardial infarction, cardiac arrhythmia, pericarditis and pericardial effusion.
Dyspnoea on exertion is the most common type of dyspnoea and may precede other evidence of heart failure.
Orthopnoea: does the patient have to sleep propped up at night, and if so with how may pillows?
Any paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnoea or breathlessness at rest? These may last from minutes to hours and be accompanied by wheezing, sweating, distress, and cough with frothy or bloodstained sputum. This is commonly termed ‘cardiac asthma’, although uraemia may cause similar symptoms.
Cheyne-Stokes or periodic breathing: this often occurs during sleep, with a long cycle time, and may be found in chronic pulmonary oedema or poor cardiac output.
Palpitations
See separate Palpitations article.
Palpitations do not necessarily indicate any underlying cardiac pathology but may be presentation of a cardiac arrhythmia.
Description may be bumping, throbbing, or thumping.
Rhythm: ask the patient to tap out the rate and regularity; a missed beat or an extra large bump suggests extrasystoles.
Duration: sudden short episodes suggest paroxysmal tachycardia; longer duration with irregularities suggests atrial dysrhythmia.
Associated symptoms: pain, dyspnoea, feeling faint or syncope.
Other history to explore
Drugs/medication: prescribed, over-the-counter, or illegal drug abuse.
Associated cough:
Duration, paroxysms or constant, dry or productive?
Associations: is it related to chest pains; any fever or shivering fits?
Sputum: colour, quantity, any haemoptysis?
Limb ischaemia, intermittent claudication.
Gastrointestinal symptoms: chronic heart failure may cause abdominal discomfort due to liver enlargement and abdominal distension.
May present with failure to thrive in children or weight loss in adults (although fluid retention caused by heart failure will cause an increase in body weight).
Urinary symptoms: oliguria can be an important symptom of heart failure.
Cerebral symptoms:
Syncope of cardiac origin may closely resemble benign vasovagal attacks, and can be caused by aortic stenosis or regurgitation (or even pulmonary stenosis), or excessively fast or slow ventricular rate (heart block, atrial dysrhythmia, and paroxysmal tachycardia).
Dizziness, headache, and mental changes are not uncommon symptoms of severe hypertension, arterial degeneration and cardiac failure.
Past medical history
Enquire about any raised blood pressure, heart problems, fainting fits, dizziness or collapses.
Any heart attacks, any history of angina, any cardiac procedures or operations (type and date of intervention and outcome)?
Previous levels of lipids if ever checked or known.
Any history of rheumatic fever or heart problems as a child?
General: any other operations or illnesses, especially history of myocardial infarction, hyperlipidaemia, hypertension, strokes, diabetes?
Family history
Ask about hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, strokes, diabetes, hyperlipidaemia, congenital heart disease, early deaths (before the age of 60) in the family.
Lifestyle
Include ensuring appropriate primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (including calculation of cardiovascular risk) and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease.
Smoking.
Obesity: calculate body mass index (BMI); acute weight increase may indicate fluid retention and heart failure.
Diet: healthy or unhealthy.
Physical activity or inactivity, including exercise tolerance: is there anything that they cannot do because of any of the symptoms? It is best to try to quantify this – for example, inability to walk 50 yards rather than inability to walk. What changes have they had to make? For example, has the patient stopped walking up the stairs or stopped work because of angina and/or breathlessness?
Occupation: sedentary or active, and how active?
Stress levels; occupational and others.

Peak expiratory flow
The peak expiratory flow (PEF), also called peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) is a person’s maximum speed of expiration, as measured with a peak flow meter, a small hand-held device used to monitor a person’s ability to breathe out air. It measures the airflow through the bronchi and thus the degree of obstruction in the airways.
Peak flow readings are higher when patients are well and lower when the airways are constricted. From changes in recorded values, patients and doctors may determine lung functionality, severity of asthma symptoms and treatment.
First measure of precaution would be to check patient for signs and symptoms of asthmatic hypervolemia. This would indicate whether or not to even continue with the peak flow meter procedure. Measurement of PEFR requires training to correctly use a meter and the normal expected value depends on a patient’s sex, age and height. It is classically reduced in obstructive lung disorders such us
Due to the wide range of “normal” values and high degree of variability, peak flow is not the recommended test to identify asthma.
However, it can be useful in some circumstances.
A small portion of people with asthma may benefit from regular peak flow monitoring.
When monitoring is recommended, it is usually done in addition to reliever medication use.
When peak flow is being monitored regularly, the results may be recorded on a peak flow chart.
It is important to use the same peak flow meter every time.
№
Steps
1 The peak flow meter should read zero or its
lowest reading when not in use
2
Use the peak flow meter while standing up
straight
3
Take in as deep a breath as possible
4
Place the peak flow meter in the mouth, with
the tongue under the mouthpiece
5 Close the lips tightly around the mouthpiece
6
Blow out as hard and fast as possible; do
not throw the head forward while blowing
out
7
Breathe a few normal breaths and then
repeat the procedures two more times. Write
down the highest number obtained. Do not
average the numbers.
Measuring Blood Pressure Manually
Starting from when you have done the checks and have the blood pressure cuff in place…
Step 1: Feel for the brachial pulse of the arm with the cuff on. This pulse is located in the inside of the elbow on the bone thats near your body…
Always use your fingers when taking a pulse, not your thumb, because there is a strong pulse in the thumb. You may confuse it with the actual pulse you are taking. We are taking the brachial pulse instead of theradial pulse -located on the wrist- because the brachial is closer to the area where the cuff is, and any changes could be felt more quicker. The differences are subtle, but present.
Step 2: Keep feeling the pulse and inflate the cuff until you cannot feel it anymore. Look at the dial and note the number on which the pointer has landed. This will give you a rough guide as to what the systole is. For example, the pointer has landed on 120mmHg. Deflate the cuff immediately.
Step 3: Wait a few minutes to give the persons arm a rest. In the meantime, you could put on your stethoscope and rub the diaphragm (end of the stethoscope you will use on the person’s skin) against the palm of you hand to warm it up a bit for the persons comfort.
Step 4: Place the diaphragm against the person’s arm where you had taken the brachial pulse. If you prefer, you could also slot the end of the stethoscope under the cuff.
Step 5: Remember the number on the dial ? Now add 20.
So 120 + 20 = 140. This new number is gonna be the number on the dial you will inflate the cuff to

Key rules of cardiopulmonary resuscitation
1 Patient stack on an equal firm basis, with maximally thrown back head and the raised bottom extremities
2 Hands of the massing settle down one on another so, что¬бы the basis of the palm lying on a breast, was стро¬го on an average line on two cross-section fingers above xiphoid process
3 Breast Displacement to a backbone carry out smoothly on 4-5 sm, weight spending massage, without bending of hands.
4 Duration of each compression should be рав¬на to an interval between them, frequency – 90 in 1min; in hand pauses leave on a breast of the patient.
5 For carrying out ALV a head of the patient keep in overturned a condition and push forward its maxilla
6 Air blow into a mouth to the patient or in an air line, holding at this time a nose of the patient, or by means of a bag of Ambu with a hard mask; through each 5 massage movements with frequency of 12 times in 1
7 Whenever possible use 100 % oxygen and make intubation tracheas
8 At presence in a mouth of demountable tooth artificial limbs or other alien subjects they take fingers.
9 At regurgitation gastric contents use reception of Sellika (press a throat to a back wall of pharynx), a head of the patient for some seconds turn on one side, delete contents from an oral cavity and drinks with aspirator or a tampon.
10 Each 5 mines intravenously enter on 1 mg of adrenaline
11 Constantly supervise efficiency actions which judge on improvement of skin colour and mucous membranes, narrowing of pupils and their occurrence reactions on light, to renewal or improvement spontaneous breathing, to pulse occurrence on a carotid.
Technique of carrying out of indirect massage of heart.
1. 1 Immediately to put sick of the person upwards on a rigid bed with the raised feet (it increases blood return to heart), with the thrown back head.
2 It is necessary to rise sideways from the patient and to put hands palms one on another “cross-wise” in the field of the bottom third of breast.
3 Pressure should be made only proximal by a palm part in a point located on two cross-section fingers above xiphoid process.
4 Then it is necessary to bend forward so that shoulders of the doctor have appeared almost over a breast of the patient. Hands should be straight lines.
5 To Make pressing on a thorax a ledge ( proximal part) palms, but not fingers, it is strict in a direction to a backbone on depth 4-5 see
6 In this position it is necessary to remain approximately 0.5 with then pressure stops, and then it is made again. At massage carrying out it is used not only force of hands, but also all weight of a body.
7 Recommended frequency of massage – 60-80 pressings in a minute. At frequency less than 60 pressings in a minute are not created an effective blood-groove.
8 In intervals between pressings of a hand it is impossible to raise or remove from a breast. During massage fingers remain raised and should not concern edges. In order to avoid crisis of edges it is impossible to press on a lateral part of a thorax.
9 To Stop rhythmical squeezing of a breast it is possible only for some seconds (actually for time necessary for performance of breath «from a mouth in a mouth» if resuscitation is made by one doctor) as the blood-groove created by external massage makes only 20-40 % of the normal.
10 If the patient will be reanimated by one doctor after 15 massage movements 2 fast breaths «from a mouth in a mouth» are made. If resuscitation is carried out by two doctors after 5 massage movements 1 fast breath «from a mouth in a mouth» is made.
The standard of the urgent help at cardiogen shock
1 In the absence of the expressed stagnation in lungs: to lay the patient with raised at an angle 20 ° upper extremties oxygenoteraphy; pains – high-grade anaesthesia; correction HEART RATE (paroxysmal tachycardia with HEART RATE more than 150 in 1 mines – the absolute indication to ВИТ, a sharp bradycardia with HEART RATE less than 50 in 1 mines – to ECS); * – heparin10 000 ЕД intravenously streamly
2 In the absence of the expressed stagnation in lungs and signs high CVP: – 200 ml of 0,9 % of a solution of sodium of chloride intravenously drop-by-drop for 10 mines under control over arterial pressure, frequency of breath, HEART RATE , auscultative a picture of lungs and hearts (at increase of arterial pressure and absence signs blood induced hypervolemia – recycle liquid introduction by the same criteria).

11 Repeated electric categories. (360 J)
12 Additional antifibrillator actions. Magnesium sulphate, , beta-blockers, amiodaron
13 After elimination VF immediately begin preventive antiaritmic treatment (lidocaine, amiodaronum)
The standard of the urgent help at a pulmonary edema.
1 To Set the patient to reduce venous return.
2 To Appoint 100 % oxygen through a mask for achievement of RaO2> 60 mm.my.cn.
3 Intravenously to enter loopback diuretics (furosemidi 40-100 mg or butametanidi 1 mg ); it is possible to apply smaller doses if the patient did not accept diuretics regularly.
4 Morphin 2-5 mg intravenously repeatedly; often apply to decrease the AP and short wind reduction; near at hand should be naloksan for action neutralisation of morphin.
5 To Lower postloading (intravenously sodium nitroprussidum 20 300 mkg/minutes, if систолическое the AP> 100 mm.my.cn. To adjust direct measurement the AP.
6 In the absence of fast improvement additional therapy is required. If the patient did not receive digitalis regularly, 75 % of a full therapeutic dose enter intravenously;
7 Aminofillin of 6 mg/kg intravenously in a current of 20 minutes, then 0.2-0.5 mg / (kg х hour); reduces a bronchospasm, raises contractility a myocardium and diuresis; can be at the initial stage instead of morphin, whether if infringement of breath by a hypostasis of lungs silt by the expressed obstructive disease (to X-ray a thorax) is not clearly caused.
8 If appointment of the diuretic has not caused fast диуреза, it is possible to lower blood volume exfusion a blue blood (250ml from an elbow vein) or by imposing of venous plaits on an extremity.
9 At preservation hypoxemia and hypercapnia make intubation tracheas.

Electrocardiogram registration:
1. Has explained to the patient about forthcoming procedure and has checked up serviceability of the device: tape presence, grounding
2. Has laid the patient, has released from clothes that part of a body where put electrodes
3. Has greased with gel and has imposed electrodes on an extremity: the right hand – red, the left hand – yellow, the left foot – green, the right foot – black
4. On a thorax: 1 electrode red colour on the fourth intracostal space by a breast right edge
5. 2 yellow electrode on the fourth intracostal space on the breast left edge
6. 3 – green on the middle of a line of connecting 2 and 4 points

Decoding of an electrocardiogram
Steps
1 The Estimation of quality of registration of an electrocardiogram. It is necessary to consider all record of an electrocardiogram and to estimate correctness and speed of record. 1. On an electrocardiogram to a tape should be present all registrated assignments. 2. On an electrocardiogram to a tape it is noted owe speed of record. 3. Previous REGISTRATED peak control (in a kind «p») should correspond to assignments to 10 mm.
2 The Analysis of a rhythm of heart. At the rhythm analysis it is necessary to define: • – correctness of a rhythm (a correct and wrong rhythm) • – an excitation
3 Calculation of number of warm reductions (HCF) At a correct rhythm calculation HCF is spent under the following formula: HCF =60 / R-R At a wrong rhythm calculation is spent also, but defined minimum and maximum ЧСС. Minimum ЧСС it is defined on duration of the greatest interval R-R, and maximum on the least interval R-R.
4 Definition of position of an electric axis of heart (EA). There are three positions EA: – Normal position ЭОС – Deviation ЭОС to the left – Deviation EA to the right.
5 Definition of a position of heart. It is necessary to define following positions of heart: – Normal (semivertical), Horizontal or Vertical.
6 The Analysis of a teeth «Р, Q, R, S and T». At the analysis it is necessary to pay attention on: • presence, polarity, duration, amplitude and the form.
7 The Analysis of interval Р-Q (or Р-R). It is carried out by measurement from the beginning of tooth Р prior to the beginning of tooth Q or R (in the absence of tooth Q). (In norm interval Р-Q (or Р-R) makes 0,12 – 0,20 “.)
Estimation of interval Q-Т. It is carried out by measurement from the beginning of tooth Q or R (in the absence of tooth Q) till the end of Т.
8 The Analysis of complex QRS. At the analysis it is necessary to pay attention on: • an interval • a transitive zone • the form
9 Analysis SТ (RS-) a segment. The piece from the end of tooth S (or R) prior to the beginning of tooth Т is estimated.
10 The Conclusion In the conclusion it is necessary to note the following: 1) Correctness of a rhythm (correct or wrong) 2) a rhythm Source 3) ЧСС 4) Positions EA and a position of heart 5) Presence of the revealed infringements.
