Mr. Cohen goes in for an employee sponsored free BP screening at his work. Mr. Cohen’s BP reading was 160/90 mmHg when measured with the large BP cuff. The nurse working the screening notices that the patient is overweight. The nurse assesses the patient for risk factors for HTN, and learns that Mr. Cohen sits at a desk all day answering calls from customers with questions about the use of the company’s computer software. He does not exercise regularly and admits that he does not follow a special diet stating, “My wife is a great cook. I’ll eat anything she puts in front of me. At night I like to have a snack while I watch television.” The patient denies tobacco and recreational drug use, but does report drinking “socially”. He states, “I have four or five beers on the weekend while I watch football.” Mr. Cohen does not take any prescription medications or herbal supplements, but does report taking “Tylenol on occasion when I have a headache, about a few times a week.” The nurse records Mr. Cohen’s BP and gives the patient instructions on making an appointment with his primary care provider ASAP for follow-up treatment.
