Which of the following statements would be mentioned in the “objective” section of a good verbal report?

Answer
A
The patient’s current weight is 165 pounds.
B
The patient is complaining about dizziness.
C
The patient’s sister is expected to arrive at 2 p.m.
D
The patient must receive one dose of medication every three hours.

Explanation

The objective section of a verbal report includes information that can be measured or directly observed. A patient’s weight of 165 pounds is a measurable fact, so it belongs in this section. Dizziness is the patient’s subjective complaint, the sister’s arrival is logistical information, and the medication schedule is an instruction.
