I've just started studying medicine and have been asked to discuss the following scenario for a group presentation.

"A 45 year old man presents to the Emergency Department complaining of acute chest and abdominal pain. The patient is unkempt and has a smell of alcohol on his breath. He is clearly perturbed and restless and is loath to co-operate"

What should I consider? What diagnostic procedures would you consider? Are there any ethical issues regarding getting the patient to cooperate?

Thank you

why dont you tell us what workup you plan on doing instead of asking us to do your homework.

Are there any ethical issues regarding getting the patient to cooperate?

Are there any ethical issues regarding getting anonymous SDNers to do your homework?

SDN is not for homework help. Closing.
