US President Donald Trump is “excellent cognitive and physical health,” said her White House doctor.
During the first annual physique of his second presidential term in a hospital in the Washington DC region, Trump was also proven to have scars “on the right ear of a ball injury”, after an assassination attempt last July.
“President Trump remains in excellent health, presenting a physical, pulmonary, neurological and general physical function,” said his doctor, Captain Sean Barbabella.
At 78, Trump was the oldest president to take office in January, although his predecessor, Joe Biden, was older at the age of 82 when he left.
As part of the almost five -hour medical examination at Walter Reed Hospital in Bethesda, Maryland, Trump received several blood tests, heart examination and ultrasound, said his doctor, an American emergency doctor who served in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“President Trump presents excellent cognitive and physical health and is fully able to perform the functions of the commander -in -chief and the head of state,” wrote Dr. Barbabella in the note published on Sunday by the White House.
The president received neurological tests on his mental state, his nerves, his engine and sensory function and his reflexes and has shown no signs of depression or anxiety, according to the memo.
Trump also received the cognitive assessment of Montreal (MOCA) and marked 30 out of 30, said Dr. Barbabella. The test is commonly used to detect the cognitive decline and the first signs of dementia and has tasks such as the names of the animals, the drawing of a clock and the repetition of the words five minutes later.
Addressing journalists on the Air Force One on Saturday, Trump said that he “had obtained each answer” on the cognitive test.
“Overall, I felt that I was in very good shape,” said Trump. “A good heart, a good soul, a very good soul.”
He added that the doctors had given him “a little” advice on lifestyle changes to improve his health, although he did not provide details.
Dr. Barbabella also said that Trump had “minor sun damage” and some “benign skin lesions”.
The president takes several drugs to control his cholesterol – rosuvastatin and ezetimibe – as well as aspirin for cardiac prevention and mometasone cream for a skin condition, said memo.
Trump’s heart examination has shown “no anomaly,” wrote Dr. Barbabella.
The examination noted the president’s medical history of “well -controlled hypercholesterolemia”, a condition that can increase the risk of a patient’s heart attack.
Other conditions noted in its medical history included an anterior past infection, rosacea, which is a skin condition often causing redness in the face and a benign colon polyp.
The president weighs 224 lb (101 kg) and measures 6 feet 2.5 inches high, according to Dr. Barbabella’s files. Trump has lost a few books since February 2019, when he weighed 243 LB.
As part of the body mass index calculator, it would currently be classified in the overweight beach and not obese.
The memo noted that the “articulations and muscles of the president have a complete amplitude of movement”, while creating its good health to an active lifestyle, including “frequent victories in golf events”.
This is the first medical report on Trump published to the public since an armed man tried to kill him during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, last July, scraping his ear with a bullet.
At the time, the former Trump’s White House doctor Ronny Jackson published a report indicating that his injuries from the incident were superficial.
During Trump’s first term, a White House doctor said he was in good health but that we had to lose weight and exercise.
On the campaign track, Trump frequently attacked his rival, Biden, on his cognitive and physical health.
After a poor performance of debate last year against Trump, Biden refused to undertake to pass a cognitive test, which he said that he had not suffered during his mandate.
