Complete the SOAP documentation.
Describe 3 of the most plausible differential diagnosis. Rule-in and Rule-out each diagnosis. Example: If a patient presents with a painful knee and your top differentials are osteoarthritis, ACL, and Fracture, you would find peer-reviewed Evidence to prove that each of those are possible diagnosis. For osteoarthritis: Rule in: What signs and symptoms match what the patient has. Give the evidence (from peer reviewed based information) to show that the symptoms match. Then rule out: What is lacking to show this is the actual diagnosis? You must demonstrate your thoughts with peer reviewed evidence. Maggie Smith- Abdominal Pain SOAP Note assignment.
