Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a total disability rating for compensation based on individual unemployability (TDIU) as his combined service-connected disabilities did not meet the schedular threshold and he was capable of performing sedentary work.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's service-connected conditions, including coronary artery disease, hearing loss, tinnitus, and hypertension, did not preclude him from engaging in substantially gainful employment due to their impact on his ability to perform physical tasks but allowed for sedentary work.
