Main Diagnosis Peptic ulcer (ICD-10 code: K27.4). This is a condition associated with discontinuation in the inner lining of the GI system as a result of secretion of gastric acid (Malik et al., 2019). Most cases of peptic ulcers are associated with Helicobacter pylori infection and medicines. While some patients with peptic ulcers are asymptomatic, those found to be symptomatic often show epigastric pain, bloating, early satiety, nausea, and abdominal fullness (Kevitt et al., 2019). The
rationale for this diagnosis is the patient’s symptoms, particularly abdominal fullness, early satiety, and pain in the epigastric region. Differential diagnosis ( minimum 3, only differential diagnoses with CD-10 code, no explanation of each one needed) Dyspepsia (ICD 10 code: K30) Gastroesophageal reflux disease (ICD-10 code: K21.9) Gastritis (ICD- 10 code: K29.70) PLAN: Labs and Diagnostic Test to be ordered (if applicable) Complete blood count to check for Leukocytosis. Results: Postive. Stool antigen test for H. pylori. Results: Positive. Upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy. Results: Stomach ulcer present. Pharmacological treatment: Pantoprazole 40 mg 3 times daily for 7 days. Amoxicillin 1,000 mg twice daily for 7 days. Clarithromycin 500 mg twice daily for 7 days. Advil 400 mg after every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. Non-Pharmacologic treatment : The patent should avoid junk food, especially deep-fried and processed foods, and avoid acidic foods and drinks, which increase acid production or irritate the stomach lining, such as carbonated beverages, alcohol, and coffee. Drinking plenty of water (at least 8 glasses). Education ( provide the most relevant ones tailored to your patient)
