HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS
===========================
Mr. John Smith, [age 78] and male, with a history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and coronary artery disease (status post-PCI 2018) presented with worsening shortness of breath and chest pain. He was found to have atrial fibrillation (CHADSVASC score 3, on apixaban 5mg BID) and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF, EF 35%).
He was admitted to the hospital for management of his heart failure exacerbation.
Patient reports chest pain described as a pressure-like sensation, radiating to the left arm, lasting for approximately 30 minutes, and occurring at rest. Shortness of breath has been present for the past week, progressively worsening.
Symptoms are exacerbated by exertion and relieved by rest and sublingual nitroglycerin.
Patient reports similar episodes of chest pain in the past, managed with nitroglycerin.
Patient reports that the symptoms are affecting his ability to walk and perform daily activities.
Patient also reports mild lower extremity edema.

===================================
ASSESSMENT AND RECOMMENDATIONS
===================================
ACTIVE CARDIOLOGY PROBLEM(S):
1. [State the reason (or reasons if multiple) for the consult, which could be a chief complaint, symptoms, a test finding, or a specific request from another service.]
ASSESSMENT:
[Begin by summarizing the patient's relevant history (e.g. one-liner) and presentation as well as the active cardiology issue(s) that are discussed. Limit the relevant cardiology history to four conditions or fewer which are most relevant to the case, and do not include medical history that is not relevant to the presentation in the one-liner. The one-liner should be completed by the phrase 'for which cardiology was consulted'. Thereafter, provide a complete and thorough summary of the physician's assessment for this patient, including the likely diagnosis if stated and any differential diagnoses. The summary should include some rationale or explanation for the recommendations listed below.]
RECOMMENDATIONS:
[If more than one condition is being addressed, specifically list each condition by name in bold with a '#' preceding the condition and without a preceding bullet point, and indent the bullet points for each action item below each condition; for example, if the problem is HFrEF exacerbation, list as '#HFrEF exacerbation'. Include important disease modifiers in parentheses in the condition title when applicable. If only one condition is being addressed, the name of the condition should be omitted altogether. Individual bullet points for any planned investigations, tests, treatments, or other actions such as outpatient referrals, along with their justifications should be listed below each relevant condition if multiple conditions are present, or as a single list below the 'Summary of recommendations' header directly if only one condition is present.]
(Never come up with your own patient details, assessment, plan, interventions, evaluation, and plan for continuing care - use only the transcript, contextual notes or clinical note as a reference for the information include in your note. If any information related to a placeholder has not been explicitly mentioned in the transcript, contextual notes or clinical note, you must not state the information has not been explicitly mentioned in your output, just leave the relevant placeholder or omit the placeholder completely.) (Use as many lines, paragraphs or bullet points, depending on the format, as needed to capture all the relevant information from the transcript.)
