Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Objective data is the patient's record, laboratory studies, and condition that the health professional observes by inspecting, percussing, palpating, and auscultating during the physical examination. The other responses reflect subjective data. A patient's history of allergies, use of medications at home, and date of last menstrual periods are all subjective data.
