Understanding Medical Clearance

Medical clearance is required in various situations to ensure that patients can safely undergo specific procedures or participate in activities. It involves:

• Review of Medical History: Assessing past illnesses, surgeries, allergies, medications, and family medical history to identify any factors that may affect the patient's health.
• Physical Examination: Conducting a comprehensive physical exam to evaluate overall health, including measurements of height, weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and assessment of vital signs.
• Diagnostic Testing: Ordering and reviewing additional tests or screenings, such as blood tests, imaging studies, or cardiac evaluations, based on the patient's medical history and procedure requirements.
