Physical examination The patient had a total hip replacement the year before. Recently he has had a coated stent placed in an artery. This part of the document reports findings of the physical examination, which seems to address the general, overall physical condition of the patient.

Could you please give us more context? This does not seem to be a description of cardiovascular disorders.

Note from asker:
It seems that the scale associated with this abbreviation (3/5) confirms that it refers to abdomen in this context.
