Case Study: A 24-year-old woman notes vaginal itching and irritation with a slight discharge. Previously, she developed a yeast infection that was treated with over-the-counter medications and resolved. Thinking that this was a recurrence, she again self-treated. This time, however, the symptoms did not resolve, and now there is a pungent odor, along with a frothy discharge. She presents to her HMO for diagnosis, and the nurse practitioner takes a swab of the secretions to perform a rapid point-of-care test and microscopy. A wet mount of the swab demonstrates swimming protozoan with characteristic jerky motility. A stained smear also showed pear-shaped trophozoite with flagella. Diagnosis: Bacterial vaginosis Causative Agent: Gardnerella vaginalis 1. Case 2. Patient initials (Ex. 50-year-old man) 3. History of the present illness (Symptoms and may include the physical exam of the patient) 4. Chief Complaints (Ex. Morning stiffness in his joints for over a year) 5.
