Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) - A surgical procedure to improve blood flow to the heart by diverting blood around narrowed or blocked coronary arteries.
-
Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) - A condition in which the heart is unable to pump sufficiently to maintain blood flow to meet the body's needs, often resulting in fluid buildup.
-
Diabetes Mellitus - A metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar levels over a prolonged period due to issues with insulin production or response.

Hypertension - A condition also known as high blood pressure, where the force of the blood against the artery walls is consistently too high, increasing the risk of heart disease and other complications.

72 y/o female pt. with Hx of CABG (2 weeks ago), CHF, DM, and HTN.
History: coronary artery bypass graft surgery two weeks ago, congestive heart failure, diabetes mellitus, and high blood pressure (4 terms) - 1 point each
CABG - Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (surgery).
CHF - Congestive Heart Failure.
DM - Diabetes Mellitus.
HTN - Hypertension (high blood pressure).
