Exam 1 Review Read the following scenario and answer the following questions: A 32-year-old female arrives at an urgent care center stating, “my stomach has been killing me since last night.” She is sitting in a chair, using her arms to hold her stomach as she rocks back and forth. She is dressed in a long, blue velvet gown with a tiara on her head. As you move closer to her, you smell cigarette smoke. She is about 5’2” and 120 lbs. When you speak to her, she replies with short answers and makes facial grimaces. You begin to gather more data and decide to measure her vital signs: oral temperature 101.2 degrees Fahrenheit. Blood pressure 116/72. Right radial pulse is 122 bpm and feels weak. Respiratory rate is 18 breaths/min. Oxygen saturation is 99% on Room Air. You ask questions to obtain the history. The client states that her pain is in the right lower quadrant of her abdomen rated at a 7/10. She says it is constant and stabbing and worse with movement. She tried taking Tylenol last night but she states “it did not do a thing.” She knew she had a problem when she had trouble putting on her costume at the theater rehearsal this morning. She used meditation for 10 minutes backstage to get through the rehearsal but it was difficult. She says, I am the lead actress and opening night is in 3 days.” What is the Subjective Data? • Subjective data is what the patient says. How they feel.
