Which types of patient information might be most useful for clinicians to know? Check all of the boxes that apply. what a sick patient ate for breakfast this morning

the fact that a patient’s father had colon cancer

a patient’s home phone number

the fact that a patient’s grandmother was a nurse

a patient’s previous infection with measles

the fact that the patient received the seasonal flu vaccine this year

Patient information that might be most useful to clinicians is what a sick patient ate for breakfast this morning, the fact that a patient’s father had colon cancer, previous infection with measles and the fact that the patient received the seasonal flu vaccine this year.

Explanation:

When a patient goes to the clinician, the latter performs an interrogation that includes his/her habits, personal and family history, data necessary for diagnostic orientation. This information is completed with a physical examination and specific diagnostic tests.

What a sick patient ate in the morning corresponds to a habit that may have produced a disease of the digestive tract, intoxication or allergy. A father with colon cancer corresponds to a family history, to be taken into account when suspecting this disease in the patient, due to hereditary predisposition. A previous infection with measles helps to rule out this disease or to define the impact it may have had on the patient's health. It is a personal pathological background. If the patient received the flu vaccine, it also corresponds to a personal history, referring to the medicines and vaccines that he or she has used.

All the relevant information should be recorded in the clinical history, and used for diagnostic and therapeutic orientation by the health personnel.

    The other options are not correct because the phone number or the mother who was a nurse is not relevant data for the clinical management of a patient.
