Ward Case Studies
The following is a series of case studies to review different patient
types and how they are captured on the form. The information is
provided in sequence to reflect the natural progression of a patient’s
care.
As the case is presented, mark off the required information in the
appropriate fields on your Macstrak form.
At the end of each case study, the form will be reviewed with the
correct answers supplied.
If you have any questions, please refer to your Macstrak manual or
contact us at the Macstrak Project Office.

of an anterior MI in 1990, and admission for mild CHF in 1992 and
hypertension. He is on metropolol and ASA.
DG awoke on the morning of 10/03/06 with mild shortness of
breath and chest congestion. As the day wore on his shortness
of breath and chest congestion worsened and he presented to
the ER of his local hospital in the late afternoon.
The Macstrak Project
Ward Case Study
In the ER, on examination, he is found to be moderately dyspneic
with crackles bilaterally throughout his lung fields, BP 166/68, and
HR 96. He denies having any chest pain. While in the ER he
receives furosemide IV and O2 at 40 % via mask. A CXR shows
moderate cardiomegaly and interstitial pulmonary edema.
The Macstrak Project
Ward Case Study
He is admitted to the ward with an admitting diagnosis of CHF.
Shortly after admission DG states that his shortness of breath is
much improved. On day 1, his O2 is discontinued, his metoprolol
dose is reduced and he starts on an ACE Inhibitor. He continues on
these medications as well as ASA and furosemide while he is on the
ward. He has an echocardiogram on day 3 which shows anterior
akinesis but no valvular adnormalities.
DG is discharged home on 14/3/06 on ASA po, metropolol po,
furosemide and an ACE Inhibitor. His final diagnosis is CHF.
