Attending Physician: Renee O. Bracker, MD
The Pt is a 72-year-old female diagnosed with adult kyphosis caused by poor posture. Dr. Bracker prescribed bed rest on a firm mattress with pelvic traction attached to the footboard. At 5:00 p.m. on this date, I delivered a bed board and the traction frame to Ms. Carlyle’s home. I placed the bed board underneath the existing mattress in order to create firm surface upon which the patient could sleep. I then attached the traction frame to the footboard of the existing bed. I spent 45 minutes instructing the patient, her family, and caretaker on the proper use of the equipment, how to properly get into and out of the traction, and the expected sensations.
A: Adult kyphosis
P: Follow up in 2 weeks to see if patient has any questions or concerns.
