PBL Case Discussion Part One (graded)
Setting: large urban city

complaint of headache.
HPI: Julia is a 14-year-old young lady who presents with her mother. Julia is sitting on
the exam table and is playing on her phone. She does not look up when you enter. Her
mother Cathy rises from the chair to greet you. Julia looks up and smiles but returns to
looking at the phone until her mother asks her to put the phone away. Julia appears her
stated age and is well groomed. Though her mother is present, you pull up your exam
stool in front of Julia to ask her why she is her today. “I get headaches, sometimes they
last for days. Mom says all the time I spend on the computer and looking at my phone is
causing them, but I think it helps distract me from the pain.”
