;;
;; a. Does the Veteran have any scars (surgical or otherwise) related to any
;; conditions or to the treatment of any conditions listed in the Diagnosis

;; ___ Yes ___ No

;; If yes, also complete a Scars Questionnaire.

;; If yes, describe (brief summary): ______________________________________
;;
;; 13. Diagnostic Testing
;;
;; For VA purposes, exams for all heart conditions require a determination of
;; whether or not cardiac hypertrophy or dilatation is present. The
;; suggested order of testing for cardiac hypertrophy/dilatation is EKG, then
;; chest x-ray (PA and lateral), then echocardiogram. An echocardiogram to
;; determine heart size is only necessary if the other two tests are negative.
;;
;; For VA purposes, if LVEF testing is not of record, but available medical
;; information sufficiently reflects the severity of the Veteran's
;; cardiovascular condition, LVEF testing is not required.
;;^TOF^
;; a. Is there evidence of cardiac hypertrophy?
;; ___ Yes ___ No

;; 14. METs Testing
;;
;; NOTE: For VA purposes, all heart exams require METs testing (either
;; exercise-based or interview-based) to determine the activity level at
;; which symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue, angina, dizziness, or syncope
;; develop (except exams for supraventricular arrhythmias).
;;^TOF^
;; If a laboratory determination of METs by exercise testing cannot be done
;; for medical reasons (e.g chronic CHF or multiple episodes of acute CHF
;; within the past 12 months), or if exercise-based METs test was not
;; completed because it is not required as part of the Veteran's treatment
;; plan, or if exercise stress test results do not reflect Veteran's current
;; cardiac function, perform an interview-based METs test based on the
;; Veteran's responses to a cardiac activity questionnaire and provide the
;; results below.
;;
;; Indicate all testing completed; provide only most recent results which
;; reflect the Veterans current functional status(check all that apply):
;;
;; a. ___ Exercise stress test
;; Date of most recent exercise stress test: ________________
;; Results: ___________________________________________________________________
;; METs level the Veteran performed, if provided: ___________
;;
;; b. ___ Interview-based METs test
;; Date of interview-based METs test: ______________
;;
;; Symptoms during activity:
;; The METs level checked below reflects the lowest activity level at which
;; the Veteran reports any of the following symptoms (check all symptoms that
;; the Veteran reports at the indicated METs level of activity):
;; ___ Dyspnea ___ Fatigue ___ Angina ___ Dizziness ___ Syncope
;; ___ Other, describe: _______________________________________________________
;;
;; Results:
;; METs level on most recent interview-based METs test:
;; ___(1-3 METs) This METs level has been found to be consistent with
;; activities such as eating, dressing, taking a shower, slow
;; walking (2 mph) for 1-2 blocks
;; ___(>3-5 METs) This METs level has been found to be consistent with
;; activities such as light yard work (weeding), mowing lawn
;; (power mower), brisk walking (4 mph)
;; ___(>5-7 METs) This METs level has been found to be consistent with
;; activities such as walking 1 flight of stairs, golfing
;; (without cart), mowing lawn (push mower), heavy yard work
;; (digging)
;; ___(>7-10 METs) This METs level has been found to be consistent with
;; activities such as climbing stairs quickly, moderate
;; bicycling, sawing wood, jogging (6 mph)
;; ___ The Veteran denies experiencing symptoms with any level of physical
;; activity
;;
;; c. If the Veteran has had both an exercise stress test and an interview-
;; based METs test, indicate which results most accurately reflect the
;; Veteran's current cardiac functional level:
;; ___ Exercise stress test ___ Interview-based METs test ___ N/A
;;^TOF^
;; d. Is the METs level limitation due solely to the heart condition(s)?
;; ___ Yes ___ No
;;
;; If no, estimate the percentage of the METs level limitation that is due
;; solely to the heart condition(s):
;; __ 0% __ 10% __ 20% __ 30% __ 40% __ 50% __ 60% __ 70%
;; __ 80% __ 90%
;; __ The limitation in METs level is due to multiple factors; it is not
;; possible to accurately estimate this percentage
;;
;; e. In addition to the heart condition(s), does the Veteran have other
;; non-cardiac medical conditions (such as musculoskeletal or pulmonary
;; conditions) limiting the METs level?
;; ___ Yes ___ No
;;
;; If yes, identify each condition and describe how each non-cardiac medical
;; condition limits the Veteran's METs level:
;; Other medical condition #1: ________ Effect on METs level: ______________
;; Other medical condition #2: ________ Effect on METs level: ______________
;; If there are additional medical conditions affecting METs level, list
;; using above format: _____________________________________________________
;;
;; 15. Functional impact
;;
;; Does the Veteran's heart condition(s) impact his or her ability to work?
;; ___ Yes ___ No
;; If yes, describe impact of each of the Veteran's heart conditions,
;; providing one or more examples: ____________________________________________
;;
