Assignment 1: Lab Assignment: Assessing the AbdomenPlease note this assignment is due week 6.  Please refer to your resource list as well as your grading rubrics and study guide for week 6. In this Lab Assignment, you will analyze an Episodic note case study that describes abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting. You will consider what history should be collected from the patients as well as which physical exams and diagnostic tests should be conducted. You will also formulate a differential diagnosis with several possible conditions. Please use your Resource list and grading rubric as a guide. Please reach out to me if you have any questions regarding this assignmentABDOMINAL ASSESSMENTSubjective:CC: “My stomach hurts, I have diarrhea and nothing seems to help.”HPI: JR, 47 yo WM, complains of having generalized abdominal pain that started 3 days ago.
