The HP: History and Physical is the most formal and complete assessment of the patient and the problem. HP is shorthand for the formal document that physicians produce through the interview with the patient, the physical exam, and the summary of the testing either obtained or pending.
The H P must include a chief complaint, history of present illness, a review of systems, past surgical history, family history, social history, medication list, allergies, and results of a physical examination including vital signs.
The HPI should be written in prose with full sentences and be a narrative that builds an argument for the reason the patient was admitted. ​ Has a starting point (i.e. the patient was in her usual state of health until 5 days prior to admission.). ​ Has appropriate flow, continuity, sequence, and chronologic order.
A patients health history is a key factor in timely and accurate diagnosis of acute illness and leads to improved outcomes. A thorough social and environmental health history can be just as informative as the physical examination and clinical diagnostics in the diagnosis and prompt treatment of illness.
The history component of an HP gathers relevant information about the patients history with their current chief complaint. This includes reviewing any pre-existing conditions, past hospitalizations and surgeries, allergies, medications being taken, and family medical history.
