Question 1
1 / 2 pts
We will continue to evaluate Fred and his health in this second case study.
From the first case study:
Fred is a 56 year old, single male. He is employed in sales and spends a
great portion of his day either behind his desk making calls or in his car. Fred
has a base salary but depends on sales for commission. He has a limited
income and attempts to use finances wisely. Due to his schedule, he has few
friends and little leisure time. He relays that he has been diagnosed with
high blood pressure and has a family history of cardiovascular disease.
In a typical day, Fred sets his alarm for 7 am and tries to get to the office by
8:30. He always drives through a donut shop and picks up a blueberry muffin
and a large latte.
For lunch he packs a bologna sandwich, a bag of Corn chips and a Cola and
eats at his desk.
After making calls and finalizing several deals, he leaves the office around 6
pm. Several times a week, he meets clients for dinner. Today he is having
dinner with a couple of guys at a local steak house.
After dinner and a business session, he returns home around 10 pm. Fred is
exhausted but decides to unwind and watch the nightly news before bed.
This is Fred’s second visit and you complete an assessment.
Age: 56
Height: 5 feet 10 inches Weight: 270 pounds
Healthy Weight: 129-173 pounds
You check his blood pressure and it remains elevated. Fred appears to be
having difficulty walking and is short of breath.
