Red is an 80-year-old farmer and war veteran who lives by himself, 20 miles from the nearest city. He has been a widower for 10 years but his son and daughter-in-law, Jon and Judy, live nearby. He was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about six months ago and recently began taking insulin. We (nurses from the home health agency) have been asked to see him to evaluate a wound caused by wearing shoes that were too tight. The toe was injured about three weeks ago. Red has been treating it by soaking his foot in water. His daughter-in-law, Judy, expressed concerns about his ability to manage diabetes self-care, and he has agreed that she can be present for the conversation. We know he is very independent, alert, and oriented. He drives himself into town at least once a week and spends a lot of time on his computer.

Review the case study and answer the following questions:
A 72-year-old female who presents to the family practice with her 40-year-old daughter. The daughter states that her mother has been confused lately and is complaining of a headache, shortness of breath, and a cough. The cough has been persistent for 6 days, and a fever had developed 2 days ago. The patient states that she is bringing up yellow-green mucus and has a cough, which gets worse at night. Vital signs are T 38°C, P 88, R 16, and BP 110/55. Lungs are positive bilaterally for wheezing, positive egophony. Chest radiography reveals consolidation indicative of bacterial pneumonia. Labs and culture are pending for specific antigen. The nurse proceeds with the physical examination of the head, face, neck, and associated lymphatic system.
1. What specific questions should the nurse obtain when performing a review of systems on this patient?
2. The nurse proceeds to palpate the lymph nodes. Which lymph nodes are located in the neck?
3. When performing the physical examination, what objective data should the nurse obtain while inspecting and palpating the head and neck region?
4. How might the physical examination vary depending on the patient’s age?
