Complete Blood Count (CBC) WBC: 4.5-11.0 x10^9/L WBC: 12.5 x10^9/L WBC: 13.0 x10^9/L Elevated WBC indicates possible infection or inflammation.
Hemoglobin (Hgb) 13.5-17.5 g/dL (male) Hgb: 11.0 g/dL Hgb: 10.8 g/dL Low hemoglobin suggests anemia, possibly due to chronic disease.
Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) 7-20 mg/dL BUN: 25 mg/dL BUN: 28 mg/dL Elevated BUN may indicate renal impairment or dehydration.
Creatinine 0.6-1.2 mg/dL Creatinine: 1.5 mg/dL Creatinine: 1.6 mg/dL Slightly elevated creatinine suggests reduced kidney function.
Physical Assessment/Review of Systems
General Appearance: The patient appears fatigued and pale, which may correlate with anemia.
Cardiovascular: Heart rate is slightly elevated at 102 bpm, possibly due to anemia or stress.
Respiratory: Breath sounds are clear, but the patient reports mild shortness of breath on exertion.
Gastrointestinal: The abdomen is soft with no tenderness, but the patient reports occasional nausea.
Neurological: The patient is alert and oriented, but reports mild headaches, possibly related to anemia.
