Patient Charts--Guidelines

[Dr. Lisa Cuddy]

There needs to be some sort of symptom tracker for every patient. So, patient charts will be posted here and kept updated by the current Attending Physician.

REQUIRED INFORMATION FOR THE CHART

Location of incident:
Name of Attending Physician:
Name / occupation / age / sex of Patient:
Patient symptom(s):
Mis-diagnoses:
Rule violation(s) / ethical breaches (if applicable):
Attending's "Aha!" moment:
Patient's final diagnosis:

---

This is so that we can all keep track of the patient's status. If, for some reason, the case gets passed off to another Attending Physician, the change MUST be noted.

Example

Location of incident: Golf Course in North Jersey
Name of Attending Physician: Lisa Cuddy
Name / occupation / age / sex of Patient: Gregory House/Doctor/35/Male
Patient symptom(s):

• Intense pain in right thigh
  
• Blood and waste in urine
  
• Kidney failure

• Side effect of self-injection of Demerol
  

Rule violation(s) / ethical breaches (if applicable): Unknown

Please have ONE thread per patient. When the Attending changes, the new Attending must continue posting symptoms and treatment in the original thread.
