This comprehensive clinical document outlines the complete evaluation and management of a 16-year-old male who presented with right hand pain following a fall while playing basketball. Included are a full SOAP note (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan) utilizing the OLDCARTS framework for HPI, a focused musculoskeletal and neurovascular examination, diagnostic X-ray interpretation confirming a 5th metacarpal fracture (Boxer’s fracture), and a prioritized differential diagnosis list (contusion, sprain, dislocation, tendon injury). The evidence-based plan details ulnar gutter splint immobilization, pain management with NSAIDs, orthopedic referral, activity restrictions, patient education, and return precautions. Additionally, this resource includes a high-yield grading rubric checklist, common mistakes to avoid, and simulated i-Human scoring feedback tailored for Walden University NRNP 6512 requirements.
