Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the veteran's claim for service connection of a heart disability. The Board will consider all evidence related to the veteran's heart conditions.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the VA examiner's opinion was inadequate because it did not address all relevant service treatment records and lacked a proper rationale.
