Older Adult Screening J. H. is an 84-year-old man who comes in for his annual examination. He lives alone but is accompanied by his daughter-in-law who is concerned that J. H. seems to have trouble remembering things lately. J. H. has had an unintentional weight loss of 14 pounds since his last examination one year ago. During the examination, you administer the Mini-Cog test. You name three items (ball, tree, chair) and have J. H. repeat them, which he does without difficulty. You instruct him to draw a clock and to indicate 10 minutes after 8:00. His attempt at the clock-drawing test is shown next. Later, you ask him to recall the three items; he can recall only “tree.” 1.Based on the preceding information, how would you interpret and document J. H.’s Mini-Cog results? 2.What additional screening examinations could be conducted as part of the evaluation of J. H.’s weight loss? 3.Based on the USPSTF Adult Preventive Care Timeline, what other screening tests could be done at this visit? 4.Based on his age, J. H. could be screened for other risk factors; name at least four.
