Mr. Sheumaker is a 65-year-old gentleman with known cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease, osteoarthritis, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, who presented with a 1 week of progressive fatigue and shortness of breath. In the prior 2 weeks, he had been started on hydrochlorothiazide. He had been nauseated and vomiting as a result of Percocet taken for his left hip pain with resulting decreased p.o. intake. He was evaluated in his primary care clinic and felt to be in decompensated heart failure. In the Emergency Department, he was dehydrated and found to be in acute renal failure, hyperkalemic, and uremic. For his hyperkalemia, the patient was treated with calcium, gluconate, insulin, Kayexalate and his potassium level returned to normal levels by hospital day #2. For his acute renal failure, the patient was hydrated gently with 60 cc of normal saline. The renal service was consulted and assisted with management. His BUN and creatinine were 182 and 4.8 respectively. His potassium 6.4, his sodium 128, and his CPK 1356, and his uric acid level 11.6. For his joint symptoms, Rheumatology was consulted who performed arthrocentesis of the left knee and diagnosed polyarticular gout. For his hip pain, his orthopedist, Dr. Schuchmann, evaluated him for possible future hip surgery. Neurology was consulted regarding atrophy of thenar muscles and elevated CPK. At discharge, the patient was afebrile, hemodynamically stable, euvolemic, ambulating, and saturating on room air, and on a stable medical regimen. Followup appointments for Cardiology, Neurology, and Rheumatology were put in place.

Was the patient on any medication for her his left hip pain

This is a 46-year-old morbidly obese female with a history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus complicated by BKA on two prior occasions, who was admitted to the MICU with BKA, urosepsis, and a non-Q-wave MI. On presentation to the Emergency Department, her vital signs were notable for a blood pressure of 189/92, pulse rate of 120, respiratory rate of 20, and an O2 sat of 90%. She was given insulin, sublingual nitroglycerin x three, 4 mg of morphine, 5 mg of Lopressor, and started on a heparin drip and IV antibiotics, and admitted to the MICU for further management. Her past medical history included insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus for how many years, positive ethanol use, approximately one drink per week, and denied IV drug use or other illicit drug use. She was placed on an insulin drip and hydrated with intravenous fluids, with improvement, and eventually transitioned to NPH with insulin sliding scale coverage. Despite escalating her dose of NPH up to 65 U subcu b.i.d. on the day of discharge, she continued to have elevated blood sugars >200 and required coverage with insulin sliding scale. This issue will need to be addressed as an outpatient. She was also placed on cefotaxime for gram negative coverage, with both her blood cultures and urine cultures growing out E. coli which were sensitive to cefotaxime and gentamycin. As she initially continued to be febrile and continued to have positive blood cultures, one dose of gentamycin was given for synergy, and she was eventually transitioned to p.o. levofloxacin and will take 7 days of p.o. levofloxacin to complete a total 14-day course of antibiotics for urosepsis. She was initially placed on aspirin, heparin, and a beta blocker, and once her creatinine normalized, an ACE inhibitor was also added. Heparin was discontinued once the concern for PE was alleviated, and her beta blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated up for a goal systolic blood pressure of <140 and a pulse of <70. On admission, the patient was on several pain medicines, including amitriptyline, Flexeril, and Valium for reported history of sciatica and low back pain, which were discontinued and she was placed on Neurontin for likely diabetic neuropathy. She was also placed on GI prophylaxis with Carafate and treated symptomatically with Imodium p.r.n. diarrhea. The patient was discharged with enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., NPH Humulin insulin 65 U subcu b.i.d., human insulin sliding scale: for blood sugars 151-200 give 4 U, for blood sugars 201-250 give 6 U, for blood sugars 251-300 give 8 U, for blood sugars 301-350 give 10 U, Imodium 2 mg p.o. q. 6 hrs. p.r.n. diarrhea, Niferex 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., nitroglycerin 1/150 one tab sublingual q. 5 min. x 3 p.r.n. chest pain, multivitamin one tab p.o. q.d., simvastatin 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., Neurontin 600 mg p.o. t.i.d., levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. q.d. x 5 days, Toprol XL 400 mg p.o. q.d., lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q.d. The patient was evaluated by the physical therapist, who noted her to walk around the hospital without significant difficulty.

What medications if any has the patient tried for blood sugars 301-350 in the past

The patient is a 59 year-old right-handed woman admitted for suspected acute stroke with a PMH of hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, prior TIA vs. stroke, recurrent left Bell's palsy, obesity, allergic rhinitis, history of TIA vs. stroke, obstructive sleep apnea, and chronic renal insufficiency. She was put on Acetylsalicylic Acid 325 mg PO QD, Atenolol 50 mg PO QD Starting in AM (2/11), Atorvastatin 40 mg PO QD, Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg PO QD, Amlodipine 10 mg PO QD Food/Drug Interaction Instruction, and PRN albuterol and loratadine. She was also placed on aspirin 325 mg qd for stroke and heart prophylaxis and should supplement her diet with folic acid, taking a full dose of aspirin (325 mg) and folate supplementation. She should discuss raising her dose of atorvastatin (Lipitor) with her PCP, because her cholesterol and LDL levels were high this admission and she has an outpt appointment for carotid non-invasive studies 4/0/03.

The patient is an 83-year-old man with a history of CAD, s/p MI in 1973, s/p CABG x3, T2DM, and hypertension who was admitted with chest pressure and feeling numb in his arms and legs and around his head. He took some SL nitro but does not remember if it helped and denies shortness of breath. His EKG was A-paced and unchanged from March, his CXR had no acute process, and his cardiac enzymes were negative. His stress test from March 2005 revealed a small to medium sized region of myocardial scar/hibernation in the distribution of the PDA coronary artery and no evidence of stress induced ischemia at a low cardiac workload. He went into V-paced rhythm when given dobutamine and the test was submaximal with max HR 98 (77% predicted). No reversible ischemia was seen. He was continued on B-blocker, statin, and persantine, with no aspirin since history of GIB with it, and monitored on telemetry without any events. He also had an adenosine MIBI on 2/8/05 with results as above. Held oral hypoglycemic while in house. Covered with SSI regular qac.

Neurologically, she had a left-sided hemiparesis, as well as agnosia on the left side, and her mental status included intermittent disorientation. She was maintained on Novolog sliding scale for diabetes, QTc monitored with serial EKGs, and prior use of Haldol and other antipsychotics for behavioral modification. She was also continued on a replacement dose levothyroxine for her history of Graves' and a history of radioiodine ablation. For behavioral modification, as well as intermittent agitation and disorientation, the patient was maintained on p.r.n. Seroquel 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., as well as Zydis 5 mg p.o. b.i.d. p.r.n., which was titrated from standing to p.r.n. over the course of her hospitalization in order to try to decrease any sedating medications that may be altering her alertness and orientation.

Why did the patient have cymbalta

RECORD #159637 was a 45-year-old male with multiple cardiac risk factors, including known CAD s/p MI (4/14 with PCI to LAD, complicated by instent thrombosis 1 week post-cath-&gt;successfully restented), HTN, dyslipidemia, obesity, and positive FHx who was admitted on 4/22/2003 with non-ischemic chest pain. He had an ETT-MIBI in 5/12 which showed large fixed defect in anterior, anteroseptal, anterolateral, inferior, LV apex with EF of 35%. On this occasion, he noted sudden onset of 8/10 chest pain while at rest at 6:30 pm on the evening of admission and was transported to Greena Hospital where his vitals were 98.2, 73, 92/62, 15. He was given IV TNG, heparin, MSO4, ASA with pain down to 4/10 and transferred to ITH.

What is the reason this patient is on nitroglycerin 1/150 ( 0.4 mg )

The patient is a 42-year-old white man who presented with complaints of fever to 103 and chills, a productive cough, and groin pain lasting three days. At age three, he was diagnosed with Wilms' tumor on the left, which was resected and subsequently treated with wide field radiation, after which he developed radiation-induced tyroid cancer, at which time he underwent subtotal thyroidectomy. In May of 1997, he underwent living related donor renal transplantation for chronic renal failure, however, the postoperative course was complicated by cytomegalovirus infection, presenting with diarrhea and requiring hospitalization in February 1997. He was treated with ganciclovir and subsequently maintained on Cytovene. He had one fever spike on hospital day one and Levaquin was initiated on hospital day three along with intravenous antibiotics, after which he was switched to oral antibiotics, including Levaquin and Augmentin. His blood pressures were stabilized at 130/80 with the initiation of a second antihypertensive medication, Nifedipine XL, for which he was maintained for two days at 30 mg. Hematologic studies revealed that he was continued on anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation at 4 mg daily with an INR remaining in his goal parameters. His creatinine level was 2.5 and his cyclosporine level was 303 on admission, reaching a maximum of 19.8 on hospital day four. Endocrine studies revealed a TSH of 0.02, a T4 of 6.0, and a THPR of 1.47. The patient's pulmonary status improved on oxygen and on intravenous antibiotics, and all studies for atypical organisms were negative. Prior to discharge, the patient's pulmonary status had returned to baseline and had entirely resolved. The patient was discharged on Augmentin 250/125 mg t.i.d., Levaquin 250 mg q.d., CellCept 500 mg b.i.d., Neoral 100 mg b.i.d., Prednisone 10 mg q.d., Synthroid 125 mcg q.d., INP insulin 14 units subcu q.a.m., regular insulin subcu p.r.n., Axid 150 mg q.d., nadolol 80 mg q.d., nifedipine XL 30 mg q.d., Coumadin 4 mg q.d., and iron sulfate 300 mg q.d., and follow-up was scheduled for bone densitometry in July 1998, with Dr. Clinton Ardizone in January 1998, and with Dr. Win in March.

This 75-year-old female vasculopath was admitted for further evaluation of her peripheral vascular disease which was suspected to be contributing to her new ulcerations and progressively worsening bilateral foot pain, foot mottling and wrist pain as an exacerbating factor to likely atheroembolic phenomenon, status post coronary catheterizations earlier in the year. She was placed on broad-spectrum antibiotics and plan was made for an MRA to evaluate her anatomy, unfortunately, the patient was unable to tolerate the MR and did experience some mental status changes that prevented further noninvasive imaging when she received some narcotic following her hemodialysis round. Over the ensuing days she required rather significant doses of Zyprexa and Haldol to contain agitation and delirium, as the patient would also get physical and violent. This appeared to sedate her sufficiently and over the following days, she did manage to calm significantly and returned to her baseline mental status. Cardiology was consulted during this time to optimize her prior to the OR and her primary cardiologist, Dr. Fugle, did make some recommendations including an echocardiogram that showed preserved ejection fraction and no wall motion abnormalities. Her beta blockade was titrated up and she was instructed to follow up with cardiology. She did tolerate hemodialysis throughout this time without undue difficulty and they offered an angiogram to delineate aortic and bilateral lower extremity runoff anatomy. After extensive discussions with the patient and the patient's family, the patient did agree to a left femoral to dorsalis pedis bypass graft which was performed on 0/25/2006 without complication. By time of discharge, she was tolerating a regular diet and ambulating at baseline with her rolling walker. The pain was well controlled with minimal analgesics that were not narcotic based.

This is a 70-year-old woman with ischemic cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease status post MI, insulin-dependent diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and chronic renal insufficiency who presented in volume overload after a previous admission. She had been diuresed with a Lasix drip at 10 mg per hour and Zaroxolyn at 2.5 mg p.o. daily, and her Lopressor was held for a decompensated heart failure. She was then started on amiodarone and Coumadin for a new paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Her Lasix drip was increased to 20 mg per hour and the Zaroxolyn was increased to b.i.d. After transition from Zaroxolyn to Diuril, which was given 250 mg IV b.i.d., she was prescribed Ativan 0.5 mg p.o. t.i.d. p.r.n. anxiety, Folate 1 mg p.o. daily, Lipitor 80 mg p.o. at bedtime, Lantus 18 units subcutaneously nightly, Lopressor 25 mg p.o. b.i.d., Procrit 40,000 units subcutaneously every other week, Nitroglycerin sublingual p.r.n. chest pain, Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily, Vitamin B12 subcutaneous injections at clinic, Iron 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., Metolazone p.r.n., Multivitamin one tablet p.o. daily, Torsemide 100 mg q.a.m. and 50 mg q.p.m., Coumadin 1 mg q.p.m., and Amiodarone 200 mg p.o. daily.

Ms. Dozois is a 64-year-old female admitted to MICU on 2/19/2005 for neutropenia, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and shortness of breath, requiring intubation and pressors. Her medical problems included severe COPD (on home O2 2 liters baseline sat below 90s), nonsmall cell lung cancer (diagnosed in 1999, status post multiple chemotherapy regimens, most recently ALIMTA from 1/29/2005 to 09), diabetes, obesity, and chronic renal insufficiency. Her MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION included Avapro, Lipitor, Decadron, ranitidine, Humalog, allopurinol, Alimta, Flonase, Vitamin D, B12, and Colace. She was initially treated with vancomycin, Levaquin, and aztreonam along with Flagyl empirically, and later changed to Levaquin only on 10/25/2005 to treat an enterococcal UTI and possible nosocomial pneumonia. She had thrombocytopenia and required multiple red blood transfusions to maintain her hematocrit greater than 26, though she was never hemodynamically unstable. She also required multiple platelet transfusions to keep her platelets greater than 30,000. She responded well initially to three units of packed red blood cells over 7/28/2005 and 09. However, in the setting of her GI bleed from a sloughing mucosa secondary to resolving neutropenic enteritis and recent chemo, she required multiple further RBC transfusions to keep her hematocrit greater than 30. Hematology was consulted secondary to suboptimal busted platelet levels status post transfusions, which was felt to be secondary to poor marrow response in the setting of recent chemo (workup was negative for other possible causes refractory thrombocytopenia, nystatin, allopurinol, were held given possible worsening of her thrombocytopenia). Surgery was consulted and she was managed conservatively with antibiotics initially and then with bowel rest. TPN was started on 4/21/2005, given her bowel rest for a neutropenic enteritis. She was changed to standing insulin on 10/25/2005 and her Lantus was up titrated along with sliding scale insulin to maintain blood sugars in the 80s to 120s. She is no longer neutropenic and was off Neupogen for one week and will stay and finish the 14-day course of Levaquin for coverage. On discharge her hematocrit and platelets were stable respectively at 29.8 and 46,000 and she had not required a transfusion in greater than 24 hours prior to discharge. Her DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS included Tylenol 650 to 1000 mg PO q. 6h PRN pain, headache, if fever is greater than 101, Peridex mouth wash 10 mL twice a day, nystatin mouth wash 10 mL swish and swallow 4 x day as needed, oxycodone 5 mg PO q. 6h PRN pain, simethicone 80 mg PO q.i.d. PRN gaseousness, trazodone 25 mg PO at bedtime, miconazole nitrate 2% powder topical BID to areas between skin folds including under the right breast, Nexium 20 mg PO daily, Lantus 30 mg subcutaneous daily, DuoNeb 3/0.5 mg Nebs q. 3 h. PRN shortness of breath, aspart 4 units before each meal subcutaneously, folate 3 mg PO daily, Avapro 150 mg PO daily, meclizine 25 mg PO TID, Combivent 2 puffs inhaled q.i.d., Vitamin D 125 0.25 mcg PO daily. She will follow up with infectious disease and hematology for her neutropenia, which has since resolved, and will stay and finish the 14-day course of Levaquin for UTI coverage.

The patient is a 64 year-old gentleman with a history of chest discomfort, dyspnea on exertion and fatigue who was scheduled for a coronary artery bypass grafting. He had cardiac catheterization at Ryhoagberg Spisus Community Hospital on November, 1999 which demonstrated a 30% tapering lesion of the left main coronary artery, 70% proximal lesion of the left anterior descending coronary artery, 80% lesion distal to D1, 100% occlusion of his left circumflex and a 100% occlusion of his right coronary artery. On March, 1999, he underwent coronary artery bypass grafting times three with a left internal mammary artery to the left anterior coronary artery, saphenous vein graft to the aorta and a saphenous vein graft from the obtuse marginal to the aorta. His intraoperative course was uncomplicated and he was weaned to extubation and he was treated with stress steroids to prevent steroid withdrawal. He was taken back to the operating room for bleeding and was reintubated and was returned in good and stable condition to the intensive care unit on renal Dopamine. He was again extubated and was seen in consultation by the Gastrointestinal Service for a question of gastrointestinal bleed since there was a clot seen on the transesophageal echocardiogram probe at its withdrawal from his first surgery. The Gastrointestinal Service saw any evidence of any upper gastrointestinal bleed and he was maintained on H2 blockers. He was sent to the step down unit on routine postoperative day number two and his Captopril was increased for afterload reduction. He continued to improve and continued to have care for his respiratory situation with continued diuresis and nebulizer treatments and ambulation. He was discharged to the care of Dr. Lou Pineault at Potmend Rehabilitation Hospital, Moorlberl Street with medications including Prednisone 5 mg p.o. twice a day, Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q. day, Zantac 150 mg p.o. twice a day, Niferex 150 mg p.o. twice a day, Atrovent nebulizer 0.5 mg four times a day, Timolol eye drops 0.5% one drop in both eyes twice a day, Atenolol 25 mg p.o. twice a day, Captopril 12.5 mg p.o. three times a day, Lasix 40 mg p.o. q. day, Potassium SR 20 mEq p.o. q. day, Simvastatin 40 mg p.o. q. day, and Ibuprofen 200-800 mg as needed for pain q.4-6h.

During her postoperative course she developed supraventricular tachycardia to a rate of 200 with hypotension, requiring beta blockade and adenosine. An echocardiogram was obtained which was normal and she was ruled out for myocardial infarction. She was kept on Zantac, ampicillin, levofloxacin, and Flagyl, and was weaned off her oxygen and her central line was discontinued. She was discharged to home on November, 2000 with Lopressor 50 mg p.o. t.i.d., Percocet 1-2 tabs p.o. q 3-4 hours p.r.n. pain, Colace 100 mg b.i.d. while on Percocet, and after completing a 5-day course of ampicillin, levofloxacin, and Flagyl. She is tolerating a regular diet, ambulating dependently, and requiring minimal amounts of oral analgesics. She received wet to dry dressing changes b.i.d. to her wounds.

The patient is an 83-year-old female with a history of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in 1993, a left main and diagonal percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) with cypher stent, and a bare metal stent in the diagonal for recurrent chest pain. She was admitted for possible myocardial infarction due to anginal pain, however 3 sets of negative cardiac enzymes and no EKG changes ruled this out. She woke up at 5am with substernal epigastric pain, which was unclear if it was angina or esophageal spasm. She took Maalox and 3 nitroglycerin (NTG) with pain that responded to nitro, blood pressure (BP) dropped 140s to 90s but came right back. Admitted medications included ECOTRIN (Aspirin Enteric Coated) 325 mg PO QD, Atenolol 50 mg PO QD, Ferro-Sequels 1 tab PO QD, Lisinopril 30 mg PO QD, Pravachol (Pravastatin) 80 mg PO QHS, Norvasc (Amlodipine) 5 mg PO QD, Imdur ER (Isosorbide Mononitrate (SR)) 120 mg PO QD, Pilocarpine 2% 1 drop OU BID, Bactrim DS (Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole Double Strength) 1 tab PO BID x 12 doses starting today (10/19), Clobetasol Propionate 0.05% Cream TP BID, Allegra (Fexofenadine HCL) 60 mg PO QD, on order for Allegra PO (ref #483093734), Alphagan (Brimonidine Tartrate) 1 drop OU BID, Plavix (Clopidogrel) 75 mg PO QD, Calcium Carbonate 1,500 mg (600 mg elem Ca)/Vit D 200 IU 1 tab PO QD, Zetia (Ezetimibe) 10 mg PO QD, Metformin 250 mg PO BID, Aciphex (Rabeprazole) 20 mg PO QD, and Plavix, BB, ACE, statin, Zetia.

The patient had a history of anemia and was continued on iron. HCT was stable in low 30s, 32.6 at discharge. The patient was started on Bactrim for 7 days for a urinary tract infection. All other medications were the same. The patient was discharged in stable condition with instructions to monitor BP with uptitration of ACE, take calcium, follow a cardiac and diabetic diet, watch calcium, and take Lovenox and PPI.

Has the patient had pravachol ( pravastatin ) in the past

This is a 66-year-old man with diabetes, hypertension, obesity and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the right hip on chemotherapy (R-CHOP) which began on 4/10/06 and will continue for 18 weeks, reporting no complications from ischemic chemotherapy. The patient presented to the emergency room with syncope and was hypotensive on arrival, receiving IV normal saline as volume resuscitation. The second set of cardiac enzymes was positive with a troponin of 2, and an echocardiogram the morning following admission showed a dilated right ventricle consistent with right ventricular strain. A PE protocol CT scan showed a large saddle embolus, and the patient was treated initially with IV heparin, transitioned to Coumadin and then the decision was made to try Lovenox therapy for long-term anticoagulation. Cardiac enzymes normalized and repeat echocardiogram showed mild improvement in right heart function. On admission, the patient's medications were Atenolol 50 daily, lisinopril 5 daily, Protonix 40 daily, metformin 1500 daily, Lantus 60 daily, Humalog 20 before meals, Byetta 5 mcg twice daily, levothyroxine (dose unknown), OxyContin 40 every eight hours, Percocet two tabs every 3 hours as needed for pain and gabapentin (dose unknown).

Has the patient ever had heparin

Mr. Neilsen is a 59-year-old morbidly obese man with a history of morbid obesity, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, ejection fraction of 40 percent, obstructive sleep apnea on continuous positive airway pressure, history of cellulitis, and presenting with progressive lower extremity weakness bilaterally and urinary incontinence. On admission, EMG showed decreased recruitment in the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius bilaterally, and he was treated with seven days of Bactrim for resolution of his incontinence and he was not anticoagulated at the moment though Coumadin should be a consideration given his risk of stroke. Two weeks prior to admission he noted some lumbar and sacral pain, nonradiating, worse while moving his right leg, and increasing urinary frequency without burning or urinary incontinence. On the night of admission, while getting up from a chair, his right leg gave out and he fell to the floor without injury or head trauma. His laboratory data on admission showed sodium 140, potassium 4.5, chloride 102, bicarbonate 26, BUN 20, creatinine 0.9, glucose 101, white blood cell count of 9 with 76 polys, 4 bands, hematocrit 37.6 and platelet count of 236, and urinalysis showed 3+ blood and positive leukocyte esterase with 15-20 white blood cells, one plus bacteria and one plus squamous cells. He was started on a trial of Lasix p.o. q day to decrease his peripheral edema to help him with rehabilitation, and he was instructed to apply Nystatin powder for his pannus rash. His medications on discharge included Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q day, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q a.m., Indomethacin 25 mg p.o. t.i.d. p.r.n. pain, Lisinopril 15 mg p.o. q day, multivitamin one tablet p.o. q day, Bactrim DS one tablet p.o. t.i.d., Tamsulosin 0.4 mg p.o. q day, and Miconazole 2% topical powder b.i.d., and he was discharged to rehabilitation care for leg strengthening in a stable condition.

What medications have been previously used for prevention of a urinary tract infection

A 58 year old female smoker with a history of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), Cirrhosis, Diabetes Mellitus Type II (DMII), Hypertension (HTN), and Hyperlipidemia was admitted to the CCU after an elective cardiac catheterization following an abnormal stress test. The cath showed impaired flow in the inferior and posterolateral zones due to obstructive degenerative disease in the SVGs to the RCA and LCF-OM, and a stent was placed in the RCA graft though there was extensive calcification and difficulty obtaining full stent expansion. After the stent deployment there was poor reflow accompanied by mild chest pain and EKG changes, without hemodynamic embarrassment. The patient experienced jaw and chest pain post-procedure which she described as different from previous episodes of angina. The pump-function was preserved, BP low-normal, and rhythm was NSR on telemetry. For pulmonary issues, the patient had a chronic cough due to post nasal drip which was taken off of her antihistamine on admission and CXR was normal with no acute changes. There were no renal issues during the hospital course and the patient was on Lantus, Novolog SS, and FS Glu monitored while in the hospital. Heme-wise, the patient had a cath and subsequent oozing from the site in the groin and was discharged on home meds including Plavix and ASA.

Mr. Lewter is a 65-year-old gentleman with a history of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and peripheral vascular disease who presented to Tci Prosamp Memorial Hospital on 5/1/06 with unstable angina. EKG revealed sinus tachycardia with a new incomplete left bundle-branch block and downsloping 1-1.5 mm ST depressions in V3 through V6 and 1 mm depression in aVL. Cardiac catheterization revealed an ostial 100% stenosis in the left circumflex coronary artery, a proximal 60% stenosis and a mid 50% stenosis in the left anterior descending coronary artery, a proximal 80% stenosis and a mid 60% stenosis in the right coronary artery, a right dominant circulation, an ejection fraction of 30%, and collateral flow from the second diagonal to the third marginal in the right posterior left ventricular branch to the second marginal, as well as left ventricular hypokinesis and severe inferior and apical. The patient was not heparinized due to the fact that he was on Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease with a therapeutic INR. On 9/18/06, the patient underwent coronary artery bypass graft x3 with left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery, a sequential graft and a vein graft connecting from the aorta to the second obtuse marginal coronary artery and then to the left ventricular branch. He was on medications including Lopressor 37.5 mg b.i.d., aspirin 325 mg daily, Colace 100 mg b.i.d., Pepcid 20 mg IV q.12h., insulin sliding scale, atorvastatin 80 mg daily, glipizide, Avandia, Zestril, metformin, meclizine, lactulose, vitamin C, Protonix, Niaspan, Neurontin, Zincate, and Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease. The patient was started on oral medication of glipizide 5 mg and was covered with a NovoLog sliding scale, was transfused 3 units of packed red blood cells, re-started on Coumadin for his reinsertion, and was started on Flomax 0.4 mg once a day. He had some urinary retention postoperatively and did require Foley catheter placement. He was discharged on Enteric-coated aspirin 81 mg QD, Colace 100 mg b.i.d. while taking Dilaudid, Lasix 40 mg QD x3 doses, glipizide 5 mg daily, Dilaudid 2-4 mg every three hours p.r.n. pain, lisinopril 2.5 mg daily, Niferex 150 mg b.i.d., Toprol-XL 150 mg QD, Lipitor 80 mg daily, Flomax 0.4 mg QD, potassium chloride slow release 10 mEq QD x3 doses with Lasix and Coumadin QD per INR result, and the patient will receive 4 mg of Coumadin this evening for his reinsertion and was instructed to remain on his Flomax until that time. Mr. Jana was discharged to rehab in stable condition and will follow up with his cardiologist Dr. Reuben Duttinger in one week, his heart failure cardiologist Dr. Wilton Durkee on 11/10/06 at 1:30 in the afternoon, and Urology Clinic at the Centsson Medical Center for his urinary retention in one week.

Has the patient ever had toprol-xl

Summary: This is a 22 year old gravida V para 0314 at 24 weeks, who presented with a three and a half day history of severe frontal headaches with scintillations and marked polydipsia for four days, with no relief from Tylenol, aspirin or Fioricet. She had a history of preeclampsia with a previous twin gestation, chronic hypertension, seizure disorder following motor vehicle accident for which she is on valproic acid, no clearly documented recent seizures, history of asthma for which she takes medicines p.r.n., history of behavioral disorders with question of organic or psychogenic origin, obesity, multiple drug allergies, cholecystectomy in 1990, appendectomy at age 14, motor vehicle accident with V-P shunt placement in 1980, facial reconstruction times three in 1980, and superficial vascular surgery in 1989 for varicosities of the lower extremities. Symptoms were not completely relieved by Demerol, Percocet or Tylenol, however, she was eventually tried on Fioricet which provided some relief and was at least briefly maintained on hydrochlorothiazide before admission. She was begun on a beta blocker, namely labetolol, with good control and was discharged to home on labetolol. Intravenous hydration was initially provided for nausea and vomiting, however, she declined further IV's and was discharged for a trial of outpatient management. Follow up is in the clinic. She was taking a small dose of valproic acid apparently on her own throughout this pregnancy.

When the the patient last receive valproic acid

A 73-year-old male patient with a history of coronary artery disease, ischemic cardiomyopathy, and valvular heart disease was admitted to the Rose-le Medical Center with a large left foot toe ulcer that was nonhealing, and signs and symptoms of decompensated heart failure and acute on chronic renal failure.

Hyponatremia due to heart failure was improved with diuresis, and the patient was maintained on Coumadin with an INR goal of 2-3, adjusted to 1 mg PO every other day. Diabetes mellitus, insulin-dependent, was covered on NPH QAM and QPM with aspartate sliding scale for duration of hospitalization. The patient was restarted on Celexa per PCP for likely depressive mood response to recent bilateral knee amputation, and later started on Remeron 7.5 mg PO daily in place of Celexa. He was initially treated for urinary tract infection with uncomplicated course with ciprofloxacin, and Wound care nurse consulted for BKA wound and small decubitus on his back, was treated with DuoDERM, BKA site healing well. The patient was maintained on subcutaneous heparin and Nexium as DVT and GI prophylaxis during this hospitalization. He was discharged on Enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. daily, Amiodarone 200 mg p.o. daily, Atrovent one to two puffs inhaled q.i.d. p.r.n. for wheezing, Celexa 20 mg p.o. daily, Coumadin 2.5 mg p.o. daily, Diovan 80 mg p.o. daily, enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. daily, Lantus 25 units every day subcutaneous, Lasix 160 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lipitor 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., Lopressor 50 mg p.o. b.i.d., therapeutic multivitamin one tablet p.o. daily, solsite topical, and instructed to follow up with psychiatry to assess depressive disorder/adjustment disorder, start beta-blocker at a low-dose in the outpatient setting, and check creatinine and BUN along with electrolytes to make sure patient is doing well on current maintenance diuretic schedule of 100 mg torsemide PO daily and spironolactone. Code status was full code.

What medications, if any, has the patient tried for pain in the past

The patient is a 60 year-old woman with adult onset diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and elevated cholesterol admitted with chest pain, bradycardia, and decreased blood pressure. When her blood pressure is elevated, she takes Nifedipine and the pain became three to four out of ten, so she took Cardizem without relief and called EMS. The pain was relieved with the EMTs gave nitroglycerin times two and they found her to have blood pressure of 190/100, heart rate 76, and normal sinus rhythm. They gave two nitrospray, blood pressure decreased to 150/80, heart rate 76, and after two minutes in the vehicle, she had sinus bradycardia at 30-40, blood pressure 120/80. She was given 0.5 mg of Atropine times one without any affect and brought to the hospital with a systolic blood pressure of 100, then suddenly she had bradycardia with heart rate of 30-40 and systolic blood pressure of 75. She was given intravenous fluids and Atropine 0.5 mg times one which increased her blood pressure systolic to 100 and her heart rate increased to 60. On admission, she was given Nifedipine 10 mg p.r.n. for elevated blood pressure, Lasix 20 mg q. day, Glucotrol 15 mg q. day, Cardizem 300 mg q. day, Coumadin 3.75 mg q. day, Colace 100 mg b.i.d., and Iron 325 mg q. day. On discharge, she was given Aspirin 325 mg q. day, Atenolol 50 mg q. day, Lisinopril 10 mg q. day, Pravachol 20 mg q. day, Glucotrol XL 15 mg q. AM, Lasix 20 mg q. day, and Nitroglycerin tablets sublingual p.r.n. chest pain. She underwent exercise tolerance test on a standard Bruce protocol and angiography which showed left main OK, LAD proximal 20%, D2 60%, ostial 90% mid, left circumflex mid 30%, OM2 distal 60-70%, OM1 mild diffuse disease. She underwent PTCA of her diagonal two which went from 90% to 0% stenosis and she received Heparin overnight and the sheaths were pulled on the following day. She is to follow-up in the VERAREA UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL Clinic with Dr. Van Rothenberg.

Why is the patient on nitrospray

Ms. Halnon is a 67-year-old female with multiple medical comorbidities and a past medical history significant for cardiac transplant in 1993, and hip replacement in July 2005, complicated by wound infection, and need for prolonged rehabilitation who presented from Port Medical Center to Ephma Mersources Ni Memorial Hospital with three days of progressive worsening shortness of breath. Upon admission, her mental status was borderline, but it improved with discontinuation of standing analgesic and decreasing of her clonazepam. A head CT showed no acute processes. She had a right upper arm cellulitis and urinary tract infection on screening urinalysis. She was anemic and was found to be vancomycin resistant Enterococcus positive, but repeated cultures demonstrated MRSA negative. For her heart failure, she was diuresed with IV and transitioned to oral torsemide and they entered discharge dose of torsemide 200 mg p.o. twice per day. She was given a five-day course of levofloxacin (used to address recurrent UTI) and then a two-day course of Ancef, her cellulitis was initially treated with levofloxacin and transitioned to Bactrim based on antibiogram sensitivities. A long-term Foley was placed for comfort with catheter in place. While on Bactrim for her UTI, her creatinine rose from 1.5 to 1.6, but cleared with this regimen. For her chronic anemia, the patient was continued on iron (which was increased to three times per day) and darbepoetin, folate was added. She was asymptomatic from her chronic anemia. She was given two units of packed red blood cells in March, 2005, and two more units on February, 2006. Her admission weight was 133 kg and her creatinine was 1.6. At discharge, she was hemodynamically stable, afebrile, and breathing comfortably on three liters of oxygen. Her discharge medications included Vitamin C 500 mg twice per day, Imuran 25 mg daily, PhosLo 667 mg three times per day, clonazepam 0.25 mg twice daily, iron sulfate 325 mg three times per day, folate 1 mg daily, Dilaudid 2 mg every six hours as needed for pain, lactulose 30 mL four times per day as needed for constipation, prednisone 5 mg every morning, Sarna topical every day apply to affected areas, multivitamin daily, Coumadin 2.5 mg daily, goal INR 2 to 3, zinc sulfate 220 mg daily, Ambien 5 mg before bed as needed for insomnia, torsemide 200 mg by mouth two times per day, cyclosporine 50 mg twice daily, Colace 100 mg twice daily, insulin NPH 14 units every evening, insulin NPH 46 units every morning, esomeprazole 20 mg once per day, DuoNeb 3/0.5 mg inhaled every six hours as needed for shortness of breath, Aranesp 50 mcg subcutaneously once per week, NovoLog sliding scale before meals, Lexapro 20 mg once per day, Maalox one to two tablets every six hours as needed for upset stomach, and Lipitor 20 mg once per day. Outstanding issues include following INR the goal of 2 to 3, following weight and clinical signs of volume overload, following up on loose stools for possible Clostridium difficile infection, and following clinical signs for evidence of urinary tract infection treating with antibiotics as necessary.

What is the current dose of the patient's ambien

The patient is a 36-year-old G16, P0-0-15-0, who presented at 6 and 4/7 weeks by LMP consistent with ultrasound of the day of admission, as a transfer from the High-Risk Obstetric Clinic, admitted to the Fuller Antepartum Service for diabetic control. She had a history of pre-gestational diabetes, coronary artery disease, recurrent SABs and Hepatitis B, a fibroid uterus, recurrent miscarriages, cervical dysplasia, a molar pregnancy with subsequent choriocarcinoma, and a history of ST elevation myocardial infarction in 2000, which was treated with TPA and angioplasty, and an ejection fraction of 45% in 2002. On the day of admission, the patient was on a Humalog 7 units b.i.d. and Lantus 12 units in the evening, with her fasting sugars in the 150s before admission. She had previously been on Epivir 150 mg p.o. daily, but this had been stopped prior to pregnancy. During the entire hospital stay, the patient was on a Humalog 7 units b.i.d. and Lantus 12 units in the evening, with her fasting sugars in the 150s before admission and her Lantus was increased to 20 units at nighttime, and she was using 8 units three times a day of insulin lispro, in addition to a lispro sliding scale, in order to determine the additional insulin needs as an outpatient. The patient was also prescribed Vitamin B12 100 mcg p.o. daily, Folate 4 mg p.o. daily, and high-dose folic acid, B12 and B6. Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily was restarted, and the patient was advised to not take any lamivudine until Gastroenterology followup. Oxycodone as required for pain was also prescribed. Cardiology was consulted and the impression was that the thrombosis was likely a combination of her left ventricular hypokinesia related to the previous infarct, as well as her hypercoagulable state. Therefore, their recommendation was to start the patient on Lovenox for the duration of this pregnancy, which adjusted for her weight was a dose of 90 mg daily, followed by a transition to Coumadin postpartum, to be continued for likely long-term, possibly lifelong duration. The patient had her first trimester labs sent on this admission and was started on prenatal vitamins, as well as high-dose folic acid, B12 and B6. Given the patient's history of hepatitis B, an outpatient appointment was being arranged at the time of discharge, with Dr. Lavy, from the Division of Gastroenterology at the Sasspan Hospital. It was decided that the patient should not take any lamivudine until Gastroenterology followup. She also had an 8-cm fibroid on her ultrasound scan and required rare intermittent doses of oxycodone for fibroid pain. The patient was discharged in a stable condition, with followup appointments arranged for the various specialties, on medications of Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily, Lovenox subcutaneously 90 mg daily, Vitamin B12 100 mcg p.o. daily, Folate 4 mg p.o. daily, Prenatal vitamins one tablet p.o. daily, Lantus 20 units subcutaneously q.p.m. and Insulin lispro 8 units subcutaneously AC, as well as lispro sliding scale, in addition a AC.

What is her current dose of insulin

The patient is a 54 year old white male with cardiac risk factors of diabetes, borderline hypertension, male gender, and a positive family history, who presented to Leyson Memorial Hospital complaining of substernal chest pain. On arrival to Icoson Hospital, the patient's blood pressure was 126/80 and heart rate was 80, and the electrocardiogram showed new ST depressions in V2-V5, T wave inversions in AVL, and flat T's in 1 and V6. The patient was treated with two sublingual nitroglycerins and sent to the Mendwood Hospital. On route to Icoson Hospital, the patient received an aspirin, a sublingual nitroglycerin, nitro paste, Lopressor 5 mg x 1 intravenously, and intravenous heparin. Upon transfer to the CCU, the patient was pain free and was maintained on heparin and intravenous nitroglycerin for 72 hours after admission.

The patient is a 42-year-old white man who presented with complaints of fever to 103 and chills, a productive cough, and groin pain lasting three days. At age three, he was diagnosed with Wilms' tumor on the left, which was resected and subsequently treated with wide field radiation, after which he developed radiation-induced tyroid cancer, at which time he underwent subtotal thyroidectomy. In May of 1997, he underwent living related donor renal transplantation for chronic renal failure, however, the postoperative course was complicated by cytomegalovirus infection, presenting with diarrhea and requiring hospitalization in February 1997. He was treated with ganciclovir and subsequently maintained on Cytovene. He had one fever spike on hospital day one and Levaquin was initiated on hospital day three along with intravenous antibiotics, after which he was switched to oral antibiotics, including Levaquin and Augmentin. His blood pressures were stabilized at 130/80 with the initiation of a second antihypertensive medication, Nifedipine XL, for which he was maintained for two days at 30 mg. Hematologic studies revealed that he was continued on anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation at 4 mg daily with an INR remaining in his goal parameters. His creatinine level was 2.5 and his cyclosporine level was 303 on admission, reaching a maximum of 19.8 on hospital day four. Endocrine studies revealed a TSH of 0.02, a T4 of 6.0, and a THPR of 1.47. The patient's pulmonary status improved on oxygen and on intravenous antibiotics, and all studies for atypical organisms were negative. Prior to discharge, the patient's pulmonary status had returned to baseline and had entirely resolved. The patient was discharged on Augmentin 250/125 mg t.i.d., Levaquin 250 mg q.d., CellCept 500 mg b.i.d., Neoral 100 mg b.i.d., Prednisone 10 mg q.d., Synthroid 125 mcg q.d., INP insulin 14 units subcu q.a.m., regular insulin subcu p.r.n., Axid 150 mg q.d., nadolol 80 mg q.d., nifedipine XL 30 mg q.d., Coumadin 4 mg q.d., and iron sulfate 300 mg q.d., and follow-up was scheduled for bone densitometry in July 1998, with Dr. Clinton Ardizone in January 1998, and with Dr. Win in March.

Ms. Halnon is a 67-year-old female with multiple medical comorbidities and a past medical history significant for cardiac transplant in 1993, and hip replacement in July 2005, complicated by wound infection, and need for prolonged rehabilitation who presented from Port Medical Center to Ephma Mersources Ni Memorial Hospital with three days of progressive worsening shortness of breath. Upon admission, her mental status was borderline, but it improved with discontinuation of standing analgesic and decreasing of her clonazepam. A head CT showed no acute processes. She had a right upper arm cellulitis and urinary tract infection on screening urinalysis. She was anemic and was found to be vancomycin resistant Enterococcus positive, but repeated cultures demonstrated MRSA negative. For her heart failure, she was diuresed with IV and transitioned to oral torsemide and they entered discharge dose of torsemide 200 mg p.o. twice per day. She was given a five-day course of levofloxacin (used to address recurrent UTI) and then a two-day course of Ancef, her cellulitis was initially treated with levofloxacin and transitioned to Bactrim based on antibiogram sensitivities. A long-term Foley was placed for comfort with catheter in place. While on Bactrim for her UTI, her creatinine rose from 1.5 to 1.6, but cleared with this regimen. For her chronic anemia, the patient was continued on iron (which was increased to three times per day) and darbepoetin, folate was added. She was asymptomatic from her chronic anemia. She was given two units of packed red blood cells in March, 2005, and two more units on February, 2006. Her admission weight was 133 kg and her creatinine was 1.6. At discharge, she was hemodynamically stable, afebrile, and breathing comfortably on three liters of oxygen. Her discharge medications included Vitamin C 500 mg twice per day, Imuran 25 mg daily, PhosLo 667 mg three times per day, clonazepam 0.25 mg twice daily, iron sulfate 325 mg three times per day, folate 1 mg daily, Dilaudid 2 mg every six hours as needed for pain, lactulose 30 mL four times per day as needed for constipation, prednisone 5 mg every morning, Sarna topical every day apply to affected areas, multivitamin daily, Coumadin 2.5 mg daily, goal INR 2 to 3, zinc sulfate 220 mg daily, Ambien 5 mg before bed as needed for insomnia, torsemide 200 mg by mouth two times per day, cyclosporine 50 mg twice daily, Colace 100 mg twice daily, insulin NPH 14 units every evening, insulin NPH 46 units every morning, esomeprazole 20 mg once per day, DuoNeb 3/0.5 mg inhaled every six hours as needed for shortness of breath, Aranesp 50 mcg subcutaneously once per week, NovoLog sliding scale before meals, Lexapro 20 mg once per day, Maalox one to two tablets every six hours as needed for upset stomach, and Lipitor 20 mg once per day. Outstanding issues include following INR the goal of 2 to 3, following weight and clinical signs of volume overload, following up on loose stools for possible Clostridium difficile infection, and following clinical signs for evidence of urinary tract infection treating with antibiotics as necessary.

An override was added on 10/2/06 by Gerad E. Dancy, PA for POTENTIALLY SERIOUS INTERACTION: AMIODARONE HCL & WARFARIN with the reason for override being monitoring. The patient was rehydrated with IVF and PO's were encouraged, holding Glypizide while in house, Novolog sliding scale was started on 1/2, Low dose NPH 6 units BID was started on 1/2, bridged with lovenox and INR therapeutic 1/2 and restarted on home regimen of 5/2.5mg variable dose. Pain was controlled with TYLENOL (ACETAMINOPHEN) 650 MG PO Q4H PRN Pain, Headache. A CT pelvis showed a right adnexal cyst which will need further characterization by US and outpatient follow up. The patient has an extensive cardiac history and the fall is not likely related to a cardiac issue as it appears mechanical, with no syncope, chest pain, etc. She was diagnosed with an NSTEMI with a small TnI leak, likely demand related in the setting of hypovolemia and the fall. Enzymes trended down. She was dry on admission and rehydrated with IVF, PO's encouraged, and became euvolemic by 1/2. Her JVP was up to 12cm, although it was difficult to gauge her volume status due to TR. She had a prolonged QT on admission, on telemetry, of unclear etiology, possibly starvation. This was monitored on telemetry until ROMI and drugs that confound were avoided. The QTc resolved to low 500s and a DDD pacer was functioning with V-pacing at 60bpm.

The patient is a 54-year-old man with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy who presents with weight gain, weakness, and azotemia. He was admitted with decompensated heart failure and was treated with dobutamine, seretide, and diuretics with good effect, functioning on ACE inhibitor. Two weeks prior to presentation, Digoxin 0.125 mg q.o.d., Imdur 30 mg q.d., hydralazine 25 mg t.i.d., torsemide was being held, Coumadin 1 mg q.d., carvedilol 3.125 mg b.i.d., allopurinol 100 mg q.d., Glucophage, and glyburide were administered. On 2/19/03, Diuril was added to his regimen and his creatinine was noted to increase from 2.6 to 3.6 and diuretics were subsequently held. The patient was loaded on amiodarone, unfortunately still required low dose dobutamine to maintain his cardiac output and was transferred back to the floor and continued to have decrease urine output on maximal diuretic doses and ionotropes. On 6/8/03, the renal surgery recommended that the dobutamine be stopped in order to enhance renal perfusion and Lasix be increased to 80 mg per hour. He has beyond less invasive measures such as digoxin and ACE inhibitors, and he is now dobutamine dependent dobutamine between 1 and 2.5 mcg/kg/minute to maintain his cardiac output, currently loaded on amiodarone without any further events. He has a chronic osteomyelitis, currently in a six-week course of ceftazidime, vancomycin, Flagyl, and Diflucan for complicated osteomyelitis, end date is on 2/30/03. He has diabetes and was on oral hypoglycemic as an outpatient, however, now this renal function, he has been transitioned over to insulin with his standing doses of Lantus with a lispro sliding scale. The patient was started on TPN for quite severe malnutrition and has increasing albumin with increased appetite. Additionally, he is on maintenance doses of hydrocortisone and was seen by Psychiatry, who suggested starting low dose of Zyprexa in the evening, which has greatly improved his mood. He is planned to be evaluated by Plastic Surgery prior to discharge for final plans whether a flap or healing by secondary retention. The patient currently is stable and would be discharged with home dobutamine and frequent and careful follow up by his primary cardiologist Dr. Mongiovi.

The patient is a 70 year old white female with a history of long standing hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and history of tobacco use who presented upon transfer from Ra Memorial Hospital with chief complaint of post MI unstable angina. She had a history of long standing hypertension and had chest pain in the past including at least one previous episode of rule out MI. She was admitted on 22 of April to Hen Mo Gardensworth Sent Hospital with signs and symptoms consistent with acute MI and apparently received salvage therapy with IV Streptokinase and TPA. On 0 of August, the patient presented to Cooker View Home Hospital with an episode of heavy substernal chest pressure relieved with SL and topical nitrates, and her EKG showed no worrisome ischemic changes. She was transferred to CNMC on IV Heparin, IV Nitroglycerin at 140 micrograms per minute, IV Heparin drip, Lopressor, aspirin one a day, beta blockade and aspirin. She had several episodes of typical substernal chest pain with minimal exertion that were relieved with SL Nitroglycerin, and additional episodes of chest pain that were low in intensity but prolonged, each of these requiring several Nitroglycerins and antacids to be relieved. It was felt that the chest pain was treated by the addition of a calcium channel blocker, and her admission labs showed hematocrit 34.2, WBC 6.7, platelets 159,000, PTT 50.0 on IV Heparin. Postcatheterization, the patient showed mild hypertension which was treated by the addition of a calcium channel blocker, and she was also diuresed for fluid overload. Prior to discharge, she had two additional episodes of chest pain that were low in intensity but prolonged. Each of these required several Nitroglycerins and antacids to be relieved. It was felt that the chest pain was unlikely to be cardiac in origin and more likely represented either GI symptomatology or an anxiety reaction. The patient underwent an exercise treadmill test on the modified Bruce protocol which showed no evidence for ischemia. On discharge, she was prescribed Nifedipine XL 90 mg po q am, Lopressor 50 mg po b.i.d., Zantac 150 mg po q hs, aspirin 81 mg po q d, Serax 15 mg po q 6 h or q hs prn, and Nitroglycerin 1/150 grain q 5 minutes x 3 SL prn chest pain.

Ms. Christin is an 80-year-old female who presented to an outside hospital with chest pain and shortness of breath. She took one sublingual Nitroglycerin without relief, followed by two more without relief and was then treated with intravenous Lasix, morphine, and Nitroglycerin which resulted in resolution of her pain. Her medical history includes hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, angina, Paget's disease, anemia, and osteoarthritis. An EKG at the hospital showed anterolateral ST depression and her enzymes were negative, ruling out myocardial infarction. Her cardiac symptomatology began in the fall of 1999 and evaluation showed high cholesterol with an LDL 141, EKG with LVH and nonspecific T wave flattening, and a Thallium stress test that was stopped secondary to shortness of breath. Upon admission to Ster Hospital for evaluation of her angina, her laboratory values were consistent with a myocardial infarction and her peak CK was 459 with an MB of 28.7. Her discharge medications include Aspirin 81 mg daily, iron 300 mg three times a day, Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg daily, Lisinopril 5 mg daily, multivitamin one daily, Relafen 500 mg orally a day, Imdur 60 mg orally a day, Plavix 75 mg daily for 29 days, Lipitor 40 mg daily, Atenolol 25 mg orally a day, and magnesium oxide 420 mg daily. Follow-up with Dr. Porter Luckenbaugh in SH Cardiovascular Group on January at 1:00 p.m. and with Dr. Sammy Kleindienst in the Greenetons Opi Hospital Hematology Clinic.

The patient is a 42-year-old white man who presented with complaints of fever to 103 and chills, a productive cough, and groin pain lasting three days. At age three, he was diagnosed with Wilms' tumor on the left, which was resected and subsequently treated with wide field radiation, after which he developed radiation-induced tyroid cancer, at which time he underwent subtotal thyroidectomy. In May of 1997, he underwent living related donor renal transplantation for chronic renal failure, however, the postoperative course was complicated by cytomegalovirus infection, presenting with diarrhea and requiring hospitalization in February 1997. He was treated with ganciclovir and subsequently maintained on Cytovene. He had one fever spike on hospital day one and Levaquin was initiated on hospital day three along with intravenous antibiotics, after which he was switched to oral antibiotics, including Levaquin and Augmentin. His blood pressures were stabilized at 130/80 with the initiation of a second antihypertensive medication, Nifedipine XL, for which he was maintained for two days at 30 mg. Hematologic studies revealed that he was continued on anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation at 4 mg daily with an INR remaining in his goal parameters. His creatinine level was 2.5 and his cyclosporine level was 303 on admission, reaching a maximum of 19.8 on hospital day four. Endocrine studies revealed a TSH of 0.02, a T4 of 6.0, and a THPR of 1.47. The patient's pulmonary status improved on oxygen and on intravenous antibiotics, and all studies for atypical organisms were negative. Prior to discharge, the patient's pulmonary status had returned to baseline and had entirely resolved. The patient was discharged on Augmentin 250/125 mg t.i.d., Levaquin 250 mg q.d., CellCept 500 mg b.i.d., Neoral 100 mg b.i.d., Prednisone 10 mg q.d., Synthroid 125 mcg q.d., INP insulin 14 units subcu q.a.m., regular insulin subcu p.r.n., Axid 150 mg q.d., nadolol 80 mg q.d., nifedipine XL 30 mg q.d., Coumadin 4 mg q.d., and iron sulfate 300 mg q.d., and follow-up was scheduled for bone densitometry in July 1998, with Dr. Clinton Ardizone in January 1998, and with Dr. Win in March.

Mr. Sherburn is a 58 yo man with a history of Hodgkins lymphoma who underwent radiation therapy, hypertension, and non-Q wave MI and was admitted to LMC for cardiac catheterization and observation s/p cath. During the procedure, a chronic total occlusion of the proximal L.circumflex artery with collaterals to distal vessels was observed, as well as an RCA ostial discrete 45% lesion. Mr. Muthart tolerated the procedure well without adverse event or complication at the groin site, remaining afebrile, with stable electrolytes, hematocrit and WBC. EKG was without evidence of acute ischemia and cardiac enzymes remained flat, with his SBP running in the 90's to low 100's and his Lisinopril was decreased as a result. Imdur was also added to his cardiac regimen. The discharge medications were ALBUTEROL INHALER 2 PUFF INH QID PRN SOB, ECASA ( ASPIRIN ENTERIC COATED ) 325 MG PO QD, ATENOLOL 50 MG PO QD Food/Drug Interaction Instruction, LISINOPRIL 5 MG PO QD, NITROGLYCERIN 1/150 ( 0.4 MG ) 1 TAB SL Q5 MIN X 3 PRN Chest Pain HOLD IF: SBP&lt;[ ], TERBUTALINE ( TERBUTALINE SULFATE ) 5 MG PO QID, AZMACORT ( TRIAMCINOLONE ACETONIDE ) 2 PUFF INH QID, KEFLEX ( CEPHALEXIN ) 500 MG PO QID, and IMDUR ( ISOSORBIDE MONONIT.( SR ) ) 30 MG PO QD Food/Drug Interaction Instruction. Mr. Sherburn was discharged to home with a code status of full code and a diet of House / Low chol/low sat. fat, and was instructed to return to work after an appointment with a local physician. Follow up appointments with Dr. Ned Wendt (Cardiology 3/30/01), and Dr. Elias Forgey (SMH) were scheduled, and allergies to shellfish and morphine were reported.

Ms. Leezer is a 50 year-old woman with a history of end stage renal disease, status post renal transplant, and a history of coronary artery disease, status post coronary artery bypass grafting. She had an episode of chest pain which was relieved by Nitroglycerin and passed out while saying goodbye to her husband, as well as several episodes of skipped heart beats during and after which she feels short of breath, and slurred speech for a few minutes. On admission her temperature was 98.8, pulse 96, blood pressure 120/70, and respirations 18. During her stay she was given a 250 cc fluid bolus, transfused two units of blood and her hematocrit went up to 31. Laboratory data revealed a sodium of 137, potassium 4.4, chloride 104, bicarbonate 15, BUN 86, creatinine 3.1, ALT 6, AST 11, alkaline phosphatase 44, bilirubin total 0.4, direct bilirubin 0.1, calcium 9.5, cholesterol 360, and HDL 40. An exercise tolerance test MIBI was performed, which was negative for ischemia, and the patient's ejection fraction was approximated to be 69%. Carotid noninvasives revealed moderate internal carotid plaque on the right and mild stenosis of the other arteries. An echocardiogram revealed concentric left ventricular hypertrophy with an ejection fraction of 65%. The patient was taken to Electrophysiology Study which revealed nonsustained ventricular tachycardia with possible right ventricular outflow tract origin. It was hoped that she could be maintained on Lopressor and Verapamil; however, her blood pressure did not tolerate the medication, so she was already on Atenolol for Beta blockade and Verapamil was tried. Her discharge medications included Aspirin 81 mg p.o. q. day, Vitamin C 100 mg p.o. q. day x14 days, Epogen 2,000 subcu q. week, Lasix 60 mg p.o. q. day, Gemfibrozil 300 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lisinopril 5 mg p.o. q. day, Prilosec 20 mg p.o. q. day, Prednisone 5 mg p.o. on even days, 10 mg p.o. on odd days, MVI with minerals one tablet p.o. q. day, Thiamine 50 mg p.o. b.i.d., Bicitra 15 ml p.o. b.i.d., Nephrocaps one tablet p.o. q. day, Cyclosporine 125 mg p.o. in the morning and 100 mg p.o. in the afternoon, Insulin sliding scale, Cellcept 1,000 mg p.o. b.i.d., and Prempro 0.625/0.25 mg p.o. q. day. Her triglycerides were checked during the hospitalization and found to be very high in the 1,500 range, so she was taken off Simvastatin and started on Gemfibrozil. She was discharged in stable condition the next day.

A 58 year old female smoker with a history of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), Cirrhosis, Diabetes Mellitus Type II (DMII), Hypertension (HTN), and Hyperlipidemia was admitted to the CCU after an elective cardiac catheterization following an abnormal stress test. The cath showed impaired flow in the inferior and posterolateral zones due to obstructive degenerative disease in the SVGs to the RCA and LCF-OM, and a stent was placed in the RCA graft though there was extensive calcification and difficulty obtaining full stent expansion. After the stent deployment there was poor reflow accompanied by mild chest pain and EKG changes, without hemodynamic embarrassment. The patient experienced jaw and chest pain post-procedure which she described as different from previous episodes of angina. The pump-function was preserved, BP low-normal, and rhythm was NSR on telemetry. For pulmonary issues, the patient had a chronic cough due to post nasal drip which was taken off of her antihistamine on admission and CXR was normal with no acute changes. There were no renal issues during the hospital course and the patient was on Lantus, Novolog SS, and FS Glu monitored while in the hospital. Heme-wise, the patient had a cath and subsequent oozing from the site in the groin and was discharged on home meds including Plavix and ASA.

This 71-year-old male with a history of morbid obesity, sleep apnea, CAD status post CABG x 4, presented with abdominal pain and was found by CT scan to have a 6-cm infrarenal AAA. He was initially prepared for a repair in outside hospital that upon review of the aneurysm extended up to include of the origin of at least to the left renal artery and this was felt to be a suprarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm requiring a retroperitoneal approach. He underwent an uncomplicated open repair of his abdominal aortic aneurysm through a retroperitoneal flank approach. Intraoperatively, he received 7800 units of crystalloid, 6 units of cell saver, and 2 units of packed red blood cells and put out 1200 cc of urine, 175 cc out of the nasogastric tube, with an EBL of 2400 cc. He was initially started on his home Celebrex and other medications, and the epidural was capped on postop day #2, 1/29/05. He was placed on aspirin and subcutaneous heparin for anticoagulation and was Hep-Lock'd on postop day #3 as he was taking good p.o. orally. He was out of bed to chair multiple times during the day and was discharged home with services.

She was prescribed ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID 81 MG PO QD, LISINOPRIL 10 MG PO QD Starting Today ( 6/25 ), KCL SLOW RELEASE PO ( ref # 761602437 ), TOPROL XL ( METOPROLOL SUCCINATE EXTENDED RELEASE ) 100 MG PO BID HOLD IF: hr&lt;55 , sbp&lt;95, LANTUS ( INSULIN GLARGINE ) 19 UNITS QAM SC QAM Starting Today ( 6/17 ), WARFARIN SODIUM 5 MG PO QPM Starting ROUTINE , 20:00 ( Standard Admin Time ), ROSIGLITAZONE 2 MG PO QD, FUROSEMIDE 20 MG PO BID Starting Today ( 6/25 ) PRN Other:LE edema, SIMVASTATIN 10 MG PO QHS, CEFPODOXIME PROXETIL 200 MG PO BID X 16 doses Starting Today ( 6/25 ) HOLD IF: rash, and DIGOXIN 0.125 MG PO QOD with Food/Drug Interaction Instruction to Give with meals. Her AFIB became tachy to 140's with an elevated troponin to 1.69 which rose to a max of 2.41 with no EKG changes and was rate controlled and started on Levofloxacin. She was given 2 doses of vancomycin to cover potential staph infection and had an adenosine MIBI that showed no perfusion defects. Her INR was increasing due to the levofloxacin effect and was switched to ceftriaxone consistant with blood culture succeptabilities. Follow up blood cultures on 0/27 demostrated gram positive cocci in clusters and antibiotics were d/c'd after repeat cultures were negative. Her cardiac workup included an echocardiogram with RV dialation and wall akinesis with apical sparing , a new finding since last echo in '03. We have altered cardiac medications for better rate control by cancelling the coreg( carvedelol ) and Norvasc( amilodipine ) and replacing them with a blood pressure medication, Toprol XL( Metoprolol XL ) to better control the rate of her atrial fibrillation and the digoxin was also added for heart rate control. The patient was discharged in good condition and was given instructions to take the full course of antibiotics which cover the next 8days, to take medications with meals or on empty stomach and to avoid high Vitamin-K containing foods, to call PCP with any changes in urinary symptoms, or fever >101.0, return to ER if any changes in mental status, chest pain, SOB, or syncope, and follow-up with PCP within the next week with INR and digoxin levels. Do not use lasix unless necessary and contact PCP if using more than 1-2 times per week due to possible toxicity with digoxin use.

Has the patient had multiple toprol xl( metoprolol xl ) prescriptions

This is a 70-year-old woman with ischemic cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease status post MI, insulin-dependent diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and chronic renal insufficiency who presented in volume overload after a previous admission. She had been diuresed with a Lasix drip at 10 mg per hour and Zaroxolyn at 2.5 mg p.o. daily, and her Lopressor was held for a decompensated heart failure. She was then started on amiodarone and Coumadin for a new paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Her Lasix drip was increased to 20 mg per hour and the Zaroxolyn was increased to b.i.d. After transition from Zaroxolyn to Diuril, which was given 250 mg IV b.i.d., she was prescribed Ativan 0.5 mg p.o. t.i.d. p.r.n. anxiety, Folate 1 mg p.o. daily, Lipitor 80 mg p.o. at bedtime, Lantus 18 units subcutaneously nightly, Lopressor 25 mg p.o. b.i.d., Procrit 40,000 units subcutaneously every other week, Nitroglycerin sublingual p.r.n. chest pain, Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily, Vitamin B12 subcutaneous injections at clinic, Iron 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., Metolazone p.r.n., Multivitamin one tablet p.o. daily, Torsemide 100 mg q.a.m. and 50 mg q.p.m., Coumadin 1 mg q.p.m., and Amiodarone 200 mg p.o. daily. Despite the dose of Coumadin being decreased from her home dose of 1 mg q.p.m. to a 0.5 mg q.p.m., her INR continued to rise greater than 200. She was started on q.a.c. NovoLog regimen with her Lantus insulin dose decreased from 18 units to 16 units and the NovoLog sliding scale was started. She was monitored on telemetry with no other events and required repletion of both potassium and magnesium despite her renal insufficiency throughout the admission in the setting of injected insulin in the setting of worsening renal failure, so, studies were also normal. She was continued on Aranesp through the admission and was discharged home on a similar regimen to her home regimen simply to Torsemide after the last discharge as her outpatient p.o. Torsemide regimen of 100 mg p.o. q.a.m. and 50 mg q.p.m., Lantus 12 units subcutaneously nightly, Ativan 0.5 mg p.o. t.i.d., Folate 1 mg p.o. daily, Lipitor 80 mg p.o. at bedtime, Multivitamin one tablet p.o. daily, Coumadin 1 mg q.p.m., Metolazone 2.5 mg p.o. daily as needed for fluid retention, Iron 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., and Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily. She was maintained on a cardiac diet and prophylaxis with Coumadin and Nexium. Potassium and magnesium were repleted as needed and she was maintained on aspirin and Lipitor throughout the admission. She will follow up with her primary care provider, SRRH Cardiology Clinic, and Renal Clinic.

This is a 61-year-old gentleman with severe pulmonary hypertension secondary to chronic PEs, OSA, gout, bilateral hip replacements who presents with two falls in the past two days. He was compliant with his medication regimen and denies dietary indiscretion. He was on his beta-blocker and anticoagulated on Coumadin with an INR goal of 2.5, initially being supertherapeutic with a daily goal of negative 500 to 1 L with IV Lasix once or twice a day as needed, his home dose being 160 mg p.o. His baseline room air oxygen saturation was 90-93% and he should use oxygen as treatment for his pulmonary hypertension and be provided with oxygen at home. He was treated for his hip pain initially with oxycodone which was changed to Dilaudid for better pain control, and he should be changed back to his home dose of oxycodone when discharged. He also has a history of gout which was exacerbated with diuresis and he is on his home doses of allopurinol and colchicine, Indocin being added and he should receive a total of three days of Indocin. Tylenol and narcotics as previously described can be used to help with his gouty pain. His GI regimen includes Nexium at home and Prilosec while an inpatient, and he should be switched back to Nexium when discharged from rehabilitation. His lab results on discharge include a creatinine of 1, hematocrit of 53.1 and INR of 2.3, potassium being 3.9 and magnesium being 2.0. The discharge medications include Coumadin 11 mg on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and 12 mg the other days of the week, Diovan 320 a day, multivitamin 1 tab daily, Toprol-XL 50 once a day, nifedipine extended release 30 once a day, Revatio 20 mg 3 times a day, hydrochlorothiazide 25 once a day, Lasix 160 IV once per day, allopurinol 200 once per day, colchicine 0.6 once per day, Colace, Prilosec 20 once a day, Dilaudid 2 mg q.4 h. p.o. p.r.n. pain, Tylenol 500-1000 mg p.o. q.6 h. p.r.n. pain not to exceed 4 gm total from all sources in a 24-hour period, Ambien 10 mg p.o. nightly p.r.n. insomnia. He is being discharged to rehab with a followup with his cardiologist, Dr. Insco, and an appointment with Endocrinology.

Why was dilaudid originally prescribed

This 54-year-old female with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis had an apparent VFib arrest at hemodialysis and was admitted to the CCU after being intubated in the Vibay General Hospital ED. She was intubated, received amiodarone and dopamine, as her BP was low. An x-ray revealed diffuse bilateral opacities, possible pulmonary edema versus aspiration pneumonia, and an EKG showed normal sinus rhythm 100 beats per minute with no acute ST changes. Her first set of cardiac enzyme revealed a creatinine kinase of 116 and the MB fraction of 0.7 and troponin T of less than assay and lactate of 1.8. A fistulogram and angioplasty of her right AV fistula was performed on 9/14/06 with prednisone premedication but it was unsuccessful and therefore a left IJ tunneled dialysis catheter was inserted on 10/18/06 with the tip ending in the right atrium. HOME MEDICATIONS at the time of admission included amitriptyline 25 mg p.o. bedtime, enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. daily, enalapril 20 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lasix 200 mg p.o. b.i.d., Losartan 50 mg p.o. daily, Toprol-XL 200 mg p.o. b.i.d., Advair Diskus 250/50 one puff inhaler b.i.d., insulin NPH 50 units q.a.m. subcu and 25 units q.p.m. subcu, insulin lispro 18 units subcu at dinner time, Protonix 40 mg p.o. daily, sevelamer 1200 mg p.o. t.i.d., tramadol 25 mg p.o. q.6 h. p.r.n. pain. A bronchoscopy was performed on 9/14/06 with prednisone premedication but it was negative for aspiration. The patient had difficulty weaning from vent and was finally extubated on 0/22/06. She had a single set of coag-negative Staph positive blood cultures from Quinton catheter on 8/8/06 and was treated with vancomycin dose by renal levels. An Echo on 8/1/06 showed an EF of 60 to 65% with mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and no wall motion abnormalities. The patient was continued on telemetry and treated with her home dose of beta-blocker with good response and was gradually advanced to an oral diet with no signs of aspiration status post extubation. She was also given heparin subcutaneously and Nexium as prophylaxis. The patient is full code and will likely need rehab and is being screened by PT and OT and will likely be discharged to rehab when bed is available.

This is a 65-year-old female with a history of coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, IPF diagnosed in 1986, osteoarthritis, and obesity who presented with five days of chest pain/SOB. She was initially put on aspirin, Lopressor 37.5 t.i.d., heparin, oxygen and hooked up to a cardiac monitor and EKG q.d. and was ruled out for unstable angina. Cardiac catheterization revealed LAD ostial 90%, proximal 80%, diag ostial 90%, left circ 90%, 80% lesions, marginal 1, TUB 90%, RCA 50%. The patient underwent PTCA and stent x 2 with good results and remained chest pain free. On admission she was on medications Captopril 50 mg b.i.d., Lasix 40 mg q.d., Lopid 600 mg b.i.d., Axid 150 mg b.i.d., and insulin 70/30 90 q. a.m. and 40 q. p.m. The patient was hypokalemic on 10/23 with a curious whitening on EKG and peak T waves and was treated with insulin, calcium, and Kayexalate x 3. She had a history of colonic polyps but tolerated the aspirin and was put on Nexium prophylaxis. She was then treated with prednisone overnight for IV contrast dye allergy and treated with digoxin and prednisone. The patient was treated with levofloxacin 500 mg q.d. for fourteen days and discharged on medications ASA 325 mg p.o.q.d., atenolol 75 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q.d., Lopid 600 mg p.o. b.i.d., nitroglycerin 1/150 one tab q. 5 minutes x 3 p.r.n. chest pain, Zocor 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., Norvasc 5 mg p.o.q.d., xalatan one drop OU q.h.s., Alphagan one drop OU b.i.d., levofloxacin 500 mg p.o.q.d., clopidogrel 75 mg p.o.q.d., insulin 70/30 90 units q.a.m., 40 units q.p.m. subcu, and Axid 150 mg p.o. b.i.d.

The patient, a 72-year-old male, was admitted for an incarcerated chronic ventral hernia post sigmoid colectomy, colostomy, and Hartmann's operation. His hospital course was complicated by postoperative acute respiratory failure, respiratory acidosis with metabolic acidosis, pleural effusion, hypokalemia, myocardial infarction, thrombocytopenia, and delirium. He had a known history of penile cancer status post penectomy complicated by perineal urethrocutaneous fistula, chronic anemia requiring transfusions, non-insulin-dependant diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, obesity, and recurrent UTIs. He was given a suprapubic catheter placed by Urology and was started on TPN after a PICC line was placed. He was scoped by GI on 6/20/07, which showed diffuse gastritis thought to be due to the NG tube, and two ulcers turned out to be bleeding. His discharge medications included Tylenol 325 to 650 mg p.o. q.4 h. p.r.n. pain, DuoNeb 3/0.5 mg q.6 h. p.r.n., amiodarone 400 mg p.o. b.i.d. for six more days and then 400 mg p.o. daily, hold for systolic less than 90, heart rate less than 55, econazole nitrate topical daily, heparin 5000 units subcutaneously q.12 h., Regular Insulin sliding scale subcutaneously q.6 h., Imodium A-D 2 mg p.o. b.i.d., metoclopramide 10 mg p.o. q.i.d., Lopressor 50 mg p.o. q.6 h., hold for systolic less than 90, heart rate less than 55, omeprazole 40 mg p.o. b.i.d., oxycodone 1 mg per 1 mL solution for a total of 5 mg p.o. q.4 h. p.r.n. pain, Carafate 1 gm p.o. q.i.d., and Ambien 2.5 mg p.o. nightly. He was not anti-coagulated for his Atrial Fibrillation due to his risk of GI bleeding, as decided by GI. He was discharged on TPN as his total caloric needs were still not being met by p.o. nutrition and he was in good condition on discharge.

Mr. Lewter is a 65-year-old gentleman with a history of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and peripheral vascular disease who presented to Tci Prosamp Memorial Hospital on 5/1/06 with unstable angina. EKG revealed sinus tachycardia with a new incomplete left bundle-branch block and downsloping 1-1.5 mm ST depressions in V3 through V6 and 1 mm depression in aVL. Cardiac catheterization revealed an ostial 100% stenosis in the left circumflex coronary artery, a proximal 60% stenosis and a mid 50% stenosis in the left anterior descending coronary artery, a proximal 80% stenosis and a mid 60% stenosis in the right coronary artery, a right dominant circulation, an ejection fraction of 30%, and collateral flow from the second diagonal to the third marginal in the right posterior left ventricular branch to the second marginal, as well as left ventricular hypokinesis and severe inferior and apical. The patient was not heparinized due to the fact that he was on Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease with a therapeutic INR. On 9/18/06, the patient underwent coronary artery bypass graft x3 with left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery, a sequential graft and a vein graft connecting from the aorta to the second obtuse marginal coronary artery and then to the left ventricular branch. He was on medications including Lopressor 37.5 mg b.i.d., aspirin 325 mg daily, Colace 100 mg b.i.d., Pepcid 20 mg IV q.12h., insulin sliding scale, atorvastatin 80 mg daily, glipizide, Avandia, Zestril, metformin, meclizine, lactulose, vitamin C, Protonix, Niaspan, Neurontin, Zincate, and Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease. The patient was started on oral medication of glipizide 5 mg and was covered with a NovoLog sliding scale, was transfused 3 units of packed red blood cells, re-started on Coumadin for his reinsertion, and was started on Flomax 0.4 mg once a day. He had some urinary retention postoperatively and did require Foley catheter placement. He was discharged on Enteric-coated aspirin 81 mg QD, Colace 100 mg b.i.d. while taking Dilaudid, Lasix 40 mg QD x3 doses, glipizide 5 mg daily, Dilaudid 2-4 mg every three hours p.r.n. pain, lisinopril 2.5 mg daily, Niferex 150 mg b.i.d., Toprol-XL 150 mg QD, Lipitor 80 mg daily, Flomax 0.4 mg QD, potassium chloride slow release 10 mEq QD x3 doses with Lasix and Coumadin QD per INR result, and the patient will receive 4 mg of Coumadin this evening for his reinsertion and was instructed to remain on his Flomax until that time. Mr. Jana was discharged to rehab in stable condition and will follow up with his cardiologist Dr. Reuben Duttinger in one week, his heart failure cardiologist Dr. Wilton Durkee on 11/10/06 at 1:30 in the afternoon, and Urology Clinic at the Centsson Medical Center for his urinary retention in one week.

Ms. Elter is an 83-year-old Spanish-speaking female with history of CAD, distant three-vessel CABG, CRI, NSTEMI in 4/20 and type II diabetes who presented to the ED with PND, dyspnea on exertion, and chest heaviness with no fevers or chills and no sick contacts, and EMS had given her Lasix and Nitrospray. She was briefly on a nonrebreather mask and responded to 80 mg of IV Lasix, with her potassium level reaching 5.8 and Kayexalate administered. Her medications included aspirin, metoprolol, allopurinol, valsartan, glipizide, Lipitor, and nifedipine, with her oxygen saturation eventually reaching the high 90s on a couple of liters of oxygen and her chest x-ray full set negative. She was treated with aspirin, beta-blockers, and statin for coronary artery disease, experienced a CHF flare with an elevated BNP which was managed with Lasix and Diuril, and her after load was reduced with ARB and her previous home calcium channel blocker was weaned off. She had a transient new atrial fibrillation and ventricular ectopy which resolved spontaneously, and was placed on humidified room air with nasal saline sprays and Afrin due to her coronary artery disease. She was transfused a total of 3 units to keep her hematocrit greater than 30 and Coumadin was initially started given her new onset of atrial fibrillation, but ultimately only aspirin was given after consideration of risks versus benefits. She had some constipation which was relieved with stool softeners and the patient received a PPI.

She had a white blood cell count of 9.3 with 54% polys and 9.6 % eosinophils, a glucose of 377, and a chest x-ray without evidence of congestive heart failure or infiltrate. She was treated in the emergency room with Albuterol nebulizer and plans were to discharge her to home, however, her saturations dropped to 89% on room air with exercise in the emergency room and was admitted for further observation. She was started on intravenous Cefuroxime, and initially improved with decrease in cough and shortness of breath; however, the patient continued to desat with exercise. A repeat chest x-ray was performed which showed no change when compared to the admission film. Her sputum culture grew out Pen-sensitive E-coli and she was continued on her intravenous and then PO antibiotics. She continued to desat with exercise, however, and her cough persisted although she remained afebrile with a slightly elevated white count and moderate peripheral eosinophilia. Her chest exam remained rancorous and the reason for this remained unclear. Given the finding of E-coli in the sputum sample, in addition to the elevated eosinophilia and lack of finding on chest x-ray despite significant findings on chest exam, the possibility of a worm or parasitic disease was raised. She had a Persantine MIBI in March of 1996, on which she had no fixed or reversible defects, and was on nitroglycerin for stable angina - "chest heaviness" after climbing one flight of stairs, relieved by rest and one sublingual nitroglycerin. Her medications on admission included Lasix 40 mg. per day, Insulin 70/30 28 units q a.m. and 5 units q p.m., Verapamil SR 120 mg PO b.i.d., Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg q day, KCL 10 mEq PO q day, Premarin 0.625 mg PO q day, Zestril 20 mg b.i.d., Atenolol, recently discontinued, Tofranil 75 mg PO q HS, Albuterol inhaler two puffs inhaled q.i.d., and Potassium slow release 10 mEq PO q day. She was discharged to home with Albuterol inhaler and instructions to follow up with her primary physician in clinic for further evaluation including PFTs and possible chest CT if symptoms did not abate, and to finish a full ten day course of antibiotics for presumed bronchitis. At the time of discharge the patient's saturation was 92 to 93% on room air and dropping slightly to 90 to 91% with exercise, however she was tolerating this well and was getting relief from her Albuterol inhaler.

The patient is a 54-year-old man with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy who presents with weight gain, weakness, and azotemia. He was admitted with decompensated heart failure and was treated with dobutamine, seretide, and diuretics with good effect, functioning on ACE inhibitor. Two weeks prior to presentation, Digoxin 0.125 mg q.o.d., Imdur 30 mg q.d., hydralazine 25 mg t.i.d., torsemide was being held, Coumadin 1 mg q.d., carvedilol 3.125 mg b.i.d., allopurinol 100 mg q.d., Glucophage, and glyburide were administered. On 2/19/03, Diuril was added to his regimen and his creatinine was noted to increase from 2.6 to 3.6 and diuretics were subsequently held. The patient was loaded on amiodarone, unfortunately still required low dose dobutamine to maintain his cardiac output and was transferred back to the floor and continued to have decrease urine output on maximal diuretic doses and ionotropes. On 6/8/03, the renal surgery recommended that the dobutamine be stopped in order to enhance renal perfusion and Lasix be increased to 80 mg per hour. He has beyond less invasive measures such as digoxin and ACE inhibitors, and he is now dobutamine dependent dobutamine between 1 and 2.5 mcg/kg/minute to maintain his cardiac output, currently loaded on amiodarone without any further events. He has a chronic osteomyelitis, currently in a six-week course of ceftazidime, vancomycin, Flagyl, and Diflucan for complicated osteomyelitis, end date is on 2/30/03. He has diabetes and was on oral hypoglycemic as an outpatient, however, now this renal function, he has been transitioned over to insulin with his standing doses of Lantus with a lispro sliding scale. The patient was started on TPN for quite severe malnutrition and has increasing albumin with increased appetite. Additionally, he is on maintenance doses of hydrocortisone and was seen by Psychiatry, who suggested starting low dose of Zyprexa in the evening, which has greatly improved his mood. He is planned to be evaluated by Plastic Surgery prior to discharge for final plans whether a flap or healing by secondary retention. The patient currently is stable and would be discharged with home dobutamine and frequent and careful follow up by his primary cardiologist Dr. Mongiovi.

Ms. Loften is a 62 year old woman with cardiac risk factors including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, postmenopause, and exertional angina for four months. On admission, her medications included Aspirin q.d., Enalapril 20 mg b.i.d., Cardizem 300 mg q.d., Insulin mixed 70/30 with 60 units in the morning and 30 in the evening, and Atenolol 50 mg q.d., with an additional Simvastatin 10 mg q.h.s. She had a history of Penicillin allergy which gave her edema, and a deep venous thrombosis in 1994, chronic renal insufficiency, cholecystectomy and vitiligo. Her family history is significant for brothers who had myocardial infarctions in their 50's and 60's, and a mother who had a myocardial infarction when she was 69. She was admitted for premedication overnight prior to catheterization due to a previous allergic reaction to contrast dye that caused laryngeal edema. On examination, her chest pain radiates to her left arm, is associated with shortness of breath, but no diaphoresis or nausea or vomiting, and is relieved by rest within two minutes or by a sublingual Nitroglycerin, which she has used in the past week x two. The patient underwent successful balloon angioplasty of the mid left anterior descending artery stenosis from 70 percent to 10 percent and had a mild occurrence of chest pain post catheterization which was relieved with two sublinguals, and showed no electrocardiogram changes. On discharge, she was prescribed Aspirin 325 mg q.d., Enalapril 20 mg b.i.d., Cardizem 300 mg q.d., Insulin mixed 70/30 with 60 units in the morning and 30 in the evening, Atenolol 50 mg q.d., and Simvastatin 10 mg q.h.s. She was discharged in stable condition with an appointment the day after discharge with Dr. Mondone.
