Overview
The majority of patients with [disease name] are asymptomatic.
OR
The hallmark of [disease name] is [finding]. A positive history of [finding 1] and [finding 2] is suggestive of [disease name]. The most common symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]. Common symptoms of [disease] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]. Less common symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3].
History and Symptoms

- Symptoms of [disease name] include [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3].
History
- Timing of onset of cyanosis
- congenital: Onset of cyanosis in early neonatal period is suggestive of congenital heart disease.
- Acquired: Recent onset is suggestive of acquired etiology.
- Exposures:
- History of smoke inhalation and asphyxiating gases
- History of exposure to low oxygen environments (eg, carbon monoxide poisoning, hydrogen cyanide poisoning)
- History of trauma:
- Motor vehicle collisions
- External chest compression
- History of trauma to upper airway and chest wall (eg, Flail chest, upper airway fractures, pneumothorax, hemothorax)
- History of prior lung disease
- Exacerbation of pre-existing lung diseases (eg, Asthma, COPD, interstitial lung diseases) can cause respiratory distress and eventually cyanosis.
- History of congenital heart diseases
- History of neurologic disease
- Any neurologic condition that results in respiratory distress can cause cyanosis (eg, seizures, Central nervous system lesions, cyanotic breath holding spells and neuromuscular disorders).
- History of medications
- History of fever
- Current or frequent exposure to cold
Patients with [disease name]] may have a positive history of:
- [History finding 1]
- [History finding 2]
- [History finding 3]

- [Symptom 1]
- [Symptom 2]
- [Symptom 3]
Less Common Symptoms
Less common symptoms of [disease name] include
- [Symptom 1]
- [Symptom 2]
- [Symptom 3]
