Answer:

The PA must communicate the patient's psychological situation to the attending physician.

Explanation:

The PA is the professional who works in conjunction with a doctor to assist you, so a PA should not hide any patient information from the attending physician because all the information is important for efficient treatment to be developed. In the case shown in the question above, the PA learned that the patient undergoing a heart transplant is depressed and no longer wants to live. This is very serious information and needs to be taken to the doctor in charge of the case so that the patient receives the necessary assistance for his/her problem.

The matter should be discussed with the patient's physician, because when a person receives a transplant and loses their will to live, the patients body reacts to this and the transplanted organ will typically fail and be "wasted" for lack of a better word. The physician needs to know this to try and improve the patients will to live, or to refuse the surgery so the heart is not "wasted"

Blood pressure is considered high of it stays at
kenny6666 [7]
That really depends on your doctor. Some people are high at 140  and others at 130 for the systolic. If you are young, I think 130 is pretty high. If you are older maybe 140 if the point where you should be paying attention. 

For the diastolic 80 is good. 85 is take a note book when you go see a doctor and 90 it's time to be a worry wart.

These are just numbers. Throughout the day, the numbers can vary quite a bit so one bad reading does not make you a candidate for high blood pressure.

If you learn to relax before it is taken, it makes a 10 - 15 point difference on the systolic and don't let people bully you about it.
