Client Profile Mr. Cooper is a 73-year-old man with no significant past medical history. He lives alone and is very independent in function and spirit. He was seen in the emergency department six weeks ago for complaints of "arthritis in his right knee." He was examined, given a prescription for ibuprofen, provided with a cane, and instructed to follow up with his health care provider. When Mr. Cooper sees his health care provider for his follow-up visit, the health care provider notices that as Mr. Cooper enters the examination room, he has right footdrop. When the health care provider asks Mr. Cooper what has brought him in today, Mr. Cooper states "I have arthritis in this right knee."

On physical exam, his vital signs are within normal limits and consistent with Mr. Cooper's baseline. The health…
