President Trump remains in excellent health, demonstrating strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and overall physical function.

Trump, who turns 80 next month, is on three medications: two for cholesterol control and aspirin for cardiac prevention. The memo revealed his weight has increased to 238 pounds (108 kilograms) from 224 pounds (101.6 kilograms) recorded during his last full annual medical in April last year. He is six foot three inches (191 cm) tall.

Preventive counseling was provided, including guidance on diet, recommendations to take a low-dose aspirin, increased physical activity, and continued weight loss.

This examination was Trump's third since returning to office and follows speculation about his health, including bruising on his hands and apparent sleepiness during meetings. The memo explained the hand bruising as "ecchymosis (bruising), consistent with minor soft tissue irritation related to frequent handshaking in the setting of aspirin use for cardiovascular prevention."

Barbabella said Trump was "fully fit to carry out all duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State."

Barbabella confirmed Trump is "fully fit to carry out all duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State." Trump shared his own positive assessment on his Truth Social platform, stating the exam went "PERFECTLY."
