Diagnostic report and recommendation

As you (my patient) are 58 years old and you are a

continuous smoker for past 30 years due to which you are
the patient of hypertension.
The second point which is to be noted is that you work a lot
due to which you are suffering from low back pain.

My Recommendations Being a Doctor:

About your poor sleep:

 Firstly the point to discuss is your poor sleep, due

to which your body’s whole physiology has been
disturbed.
 My first recommendation to you is to fix a proper
time for your sleep which should be maximum of
7-8 hours
 Due to not getting enough sleep your body is
unable to work properly
About Weight loss and Healthy Eating:

 Second point to discuss is your body weight

 As you are overweight due to which you are the
patient of hypertension (increased blood pressure)
 Now here my aim is to address you about the
benefits of exercise and healthy eating which will
help you in a long run :
 Now see yourself and observe, being overweight
has caused so much trouble for you, you are not
able to sleep properly, you are suffering from
high blood pressure, you are suffering from back
pain, and due to increased level of cholesterol in
your body you may develop cardiovascular
diseases.
 As cardiovascular disease is a disease which affect
your heart and arteries due to fat deposit in them.
 So now if you want to reduce the risk factors of
CVD you have to exercise regurarly along with
healthy eating
 If you will exercise daily it will help you get rid of
your stored fatty cells which will help you
maintain good blood pressure
 So daily you have to exercise for 30 mins, you can
walk , you can do brick walking , you can do yoga
or meditation
 Try to avoid fatty foods like burger, pizza, pasta,
noodles and food rich in carbohydrates.
 Here is the diet plan which you can follow to start
the habit of healthy eating
And try to quite the habit smoking it will cause worse
effect on your lungs. I know you cannot quit it
gradually. If you are smoking 3-4 cigarettes in a day
try to smoke less like 1 or 2 and then try to reduce it
to 0 if you will not quit it your lungs will shrink and
will stop working so try to quit this habit as soon as
possible.
About Back pain:
As you have to work for longer period of time and you
have to sit in a particular place for many hours. Your
low back pain is the symptom that you are obese and
you are not following a proper posture.
Here are some recommendations which will help
you reduce your back pain:
 Maintain correct posture
 DO stretching
 Maintain a healthy weight
 Use Lumbar Sport

Here is the chart of some simple exercise which you can

do to reduce lower back pain you can perform it with
trainer or once you are able to do it alone you will
I assure you if you will follow all the
recommendations your body’s physiology will come
to normal and you will be able to spend your life in a
healthy way reducing the risks factors of diseases.

Will he adhere to my Recommendation:

Yes, I am sure that he will adhere to my

recommendations because firstly the way, in which I
have addressed him about the good and bad of all
things, the way I have talked to him is very much
important for a doctor to help his patient adhere with
your recommendation. Secondly he was so serious or
conscious about his health that he thought of
consulting a doctor.

What are the applicable incentives and penalties

complying not with the guidelines

Incentives are really important in health care

profession. They help to improve the modes and
methods to get the maximum result/outcome from the
patient.
Incentives encourages patient to perform well.
Incentives may be monetary and non-monetary
If you will tell your patient that he has to see you once
in a week and you will take look of his health condition
or you will check how well he is doing so by doing this
there are chances that your patient will improve well.
Penalty for the patient for not performing well is that
you will not be able to improve, the more the situation
get worse it’s difficult to handle it, maybe you (patient)
have to be admitted in the hospital for not following
the recommendations.
NOTHING LOOKS AS GOOD
AS BEING HEALTHY FEELS
