Mass effect on homolateral ventricle and 4 mm leftward shift, mild subfalcine herniation. Right infratentorial acute subdural blood. Parenchymal hemorrhage surrounded by vasogenic edema and contains air-fluid levels, differential includes mass and hemorrhagic infarction. Emergent neurosurgery evaluation recommended Final Report EXAM: CT of the head. CLINICAL INFORMATION: Patient with intracerebral hemorrhage, for further evaluation. TECHNIQUE: Axial images of the head were obtained without contrast. Following this using departmental protocol CT angiography of the head was acquired. FINDINGS: HEAD CT: There is a large intracerebral hematoma identified in the right temporal lobe measuring 7 x 5 cm. The hematoma contains an intrinsic area of fluid-fluid level. CT ANGIOGRAPHY OF THE HEAD: CT angiography demonstrates elevation of the right middle cerebral artery secondary to mass effect from the hematoma. No abnormal vascular structures or aneurysm identified. There is no vascular occlusion seen. There is no evidence of dural sinus thrombosis seen. CT ANGIOGRAPHY OF THE NECK: CT angiography of the neck demonstrates normal appearances of the carotid and vertebral arteries without stenosis or occlusion. Both carotid arteries measure approximately 5 to 6 mm in the proximal and 4 mm in the distal cervical region. The patient is seen to have endotracheal intubation. Sternotomy sutures are seen in the partially visualized thorax. IMPRESSION: 1. Large right temporal intraparenchymal hematoma with mild surrounding edema and mass effect on the right lateral ventricle. 2. No evidence of abnormal vascular structures or aneurysm on the CTA of the head. Displacement of the right middle cerebral artery is seen secondary to mass effect. 3.

Clinical: Subdural hematoma right. Specimen submitted: temporal lobe tissue. Gross: Multiple fragments of soft white brain tissue and blood clot measuring 7 x 5.5 x 2.5 cm in aggregate. The majority of the brain tissue and representative sections of blood clot are submitted in cassettes A-B. Brief Hospital Course: 55F with large temporal lobe hemorrhage with associated edema, and 4mm MLS, mild subfalcine herniation. She was brought emergently to the OR a right sided craniotomy for evacuation of hematom. She was loaded with Dilantin and her BP was kept less than 140. Her coagulopathy was reversed prior to the OR. On POD#1 she was extubated and follow commands and was moving everything symmetrically. A neurology consult was completed to identify reason for bleed,they recommended a CTA head and neck showed No evidence of abnormal vascular structures or aneurysm on the CTA of the head. Displacement of the right middle cerebral artery is seen secondary to mass effect. No evidence of occlusion or stenosis in the arteries of the neck. As the patient became more alert she complained of blurry vision. A opthamology consult was obtained and she was found to have exposure heratopathy with abrasion in both eyes secondary to lagaophlamous. She was started on Bacitracin and patching at sleep.Within two days the eye had significant improvement. Continue to tegaderm eyes closed at hs. Medicine was consulted due to her porcine MVR past anticoagulation and developed oliguria on [5-29]. She was trialed on lasix given mild dyspnea, 400 cc urine made, dark. An echo was done that showed echo reveals EF 50%, 3+ TR. She was restarted on a standing dose of a diuretic. Neurologically she continued to progress, she was orientated X3, slight left IP weakness she was full assist with ambulation. She was tolerating a regular diet. Her wound was clean and dry. Neurology was consulted for INR therapeutic dosing - She restarted her coumadin on post op day #10 (monday [6-5]) with a dose of 5mg. Her INR is pending at this pt and in speaking to the receiving physiatrist at [Hospital1 ] - the pts INR will be called to 2 South where the pt will be admitted and they will dose her for this evening. The INR recommended by the neurology team is 2.5-3.5. Her INR yesterday was 1.3 prior to her first dose of coumadin. The pts family was requesting a hematology consult for explanation of why this pts INR suddenly "shot up". The pt is refusing this consultation stating that she feels her family wants to blame her for the bleeding on the brain.

Was doing well at his group home when he was noted to have about 5 two-minute petite mal seizures that resolved on their own. Was taken to OSH where he again had 2 more siezures, this time more tonic clonic. Was treated with 2 mg ativan IV x1 and then valium 5 mg IV x1, and tegretol for continued seizing. He was found to have PNA on CXR and treated with zosyn. He was transferred here because he gets his neurology care at [Hospital1 18]. . In the ED, initial vs were 98.4, 96/62, 72, 14, 98% NRB. Patient was given vanco and levofloxacin here. He also got 1L NS. He was unable to be weaned from the non-rebreather, so admitted to the ICU. Between signout and transfer to the floor, he had another [Hospital1 862] and was given 2 mg IV of ativan which resolved the [Hospital1 862]. . Per report, a friend from his group home was with him in the emergency room and said that he often has groups of seizures like this when he gets infected. . On the floor, he is sedated, arousable to pain, non-verbal. His friend or relative was no longer with him, so a history was difficult to obtain.

Retrocardiac opcity is likely accounted for by hiatus hernia and atelectasis, less likely pneumonia. There is no other focal consolidation to suggest pneumonia. There is no effusion or pneumothorax. The hilar and cardiomediastinal contours are unchanged, with redemonstration of mild cardiomegaly. The visualized bones demonstrate no acute abnormality. Numerous air-filled bowel loops are identified in the upper abdomen. IMPRESSION: Retrocardiac opacity likely accounted for by atelectasis and hiatus hernia. No definite pneumonia. Discharge Labs: Brief Hospital Course: 34 y/o M with hx of MR [First Name (Titles) ] [Last Name (Titles) 862] disorder who presents with new cluster of seizures in conjunction with a new pneunomia. Hospital Course: . # Seizures: Increased frequency was thought likely due to pneumonia; per notes and reports from his group home, he tends to have clusters of seizures when he is infected. However as seen below there was not sufficient evidence for an pneumonia and it may have been a viral infection. His phenytoin and carbemazepine levels were at goal. While in the MICU on [2108-4-2], he had a [Date Range 862] lasting 13 minutes characterized by right eye and face twitching and associated with tachycardia to 140s and hypoxia to O2sat 70s. He received ativan 1mg x 2. He was then started on standing Ativan, initially 1mg Q6hr, and transferred to the Neurology service. His Zonegran was increased to 500mg QHS, and his Dilantin was returned to his prior dose of 150mg/200mg. He remained [Date Range 862] free on [4-3], and the Ativan was tapered further from 1mg q8hr to 0.5mg Q6hr. He was doing well until [4-6] his tube feeds stopped flowing and he was noted to have an ileus. His medications were switched to IV form. He has a few seizures while on IV formulation and his ativan was bumped back to 1mg q6h. His ileus resolved and he was placed back on his oral medications and his Zonegran was increased to 500mg. The ativan was tapered off and he was [Month/Day (4) 862] free at discharge. . # Pneumonia: Found to have a new possible LLL pneumonia on CXR. As patient does have a h/o MRSA infection and comes from a group home setting, he was started on vancomycin, zosyn, and azithromycin for HCAP and CAP coverage. He initially was on a non-rebreather, but throughout the course of the day on [4-2] he was titrated off all oxygen, and was back on room air by [4-3]. Repeat CXR still showed no sign of pneumonia, the patient was afebrile, and WBC count had improved so antibiotics were stopped on [4-3]. It was thought that the inciting factor this time was possible a viral upper respiratory tract infection, as there had been concern about increased congestion and cough during the week prior to admission . # FEN: Tube feeds: patient was unable to tolerate tube feeds for several days as high residuals were noted. There was concern for mild ileus with a KUB showing Multiple air-filled dilated loops of small and large bowel. He was kept NPO for several days and then tube feeds were resumed without any difficulty. He tolerated Fibersource HN Full strength at 45 ml/hr with minimal residuals. He abdominal exam remained soft and non-distended and he had regular bowel movements. # Communication: Patient, mother [Name (NI) 6744] [Telephone/Fax (1) 82323] # [Name2 (NI) 7092]: DNR/DNI Medications on Admission: Lorazepam 1 mg [Hospital1 ]?

The patient was hospitalized two months ago with dysphagia and provided history suggestive of CHF. Subsequent evaluation showed severely depressed LVEF, 20-25%, with elevated right- and left-sided filling pressures. A diagnostic left- and right-heart cath was performed, and attempted PCI to mid-LAD was unsuccessful. The patient was evaluated by CT surgery, and was determined to be a poor surgical candidate. The patient was discharged with a plan to optimize medical management of presumed ischemic heart disease (there had been a question of possible tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy, alcoholic cardiomyopathy). Iron studies did not show evidence of hemachromatosis. The patient had scheduled Cardiology follow up on [2146-11-2] which she unfortunately did not keep. The following day, the patient was found to be hyperglycemic, with home FSBGs in the 500s. Since admission, management of hypervolemia from CHF has been limited by hypotension. We are asked to provide recommendation for management of patient's CHF. On further history, patient notes progressive DOE over the past summer. She denies any inciting event. Her exercise capacity and level of activity have been limited over the past few months due to progressive DOE. On cardiac review of symptoms, patient denies any current or prior chest pain/pressure/angina. Denies palpitations, presyncope, and syncope. Patient does have [1-19] pillow orthopnea with occasional PND. Lower leg swelling has not changed over prior two months. Currently, the patient notes fatigue and mild shortness of breath at rest during the interview. She denies chest pain/pressure, lightheadedness, and is otherwise asymptomatic. Past Medical History: DM A1c 7.9% [2146-9-27] 2VD s/p unsuccessful PCI mid-LAD [2146-9-13] Ischemic CMP EF 20-25% by TTE [2146-9-11] CKD stage III b/l Cr ~1.4 HTN Hyperlipidemia s/p bilat cataract surgeries Cardiac Risk Factors include diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and family history of CAD Social History: Patient is retired since [2139] from Met Life. She has been divorced for many years. Currently not sexually active. Admits to drinking alcohol rarely and has a 10 pack-year smoking history (she quit 25 years ago). Denies illicit drug use.

Linear opacity adjacent to the effusion is most consistent with atelectasis. There is improved aeration of the left lung base. Upper lung zones are well aerated without new consolidation. There is no pneumothorax. Pulmonary vascularity is normal. There is no hilar enlargement. The cardiomediastinal silhouette is grossly stable. IMPRESSION: Persistent moderate-to-large right pleural effusion and small left pleural effusion, with atelectasis. No edema ECHO: [2146-11-7] The left atrium is elongated. The estimated right atrial pressure is 10-20mmHg. Left ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity size are normal. There is severe global left ventricular hypokinesis (LVEF = 20 %). No masses or thrombi are seen in the left ventricle (fibrotic apical trabeculations are seen). The right ventricular cavity is moderately dilated with severe global free wall hypokinesis. [Intrinsic right ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of tricuspid regurgitation.] The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Mild to moderate ([11-19]+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The left ventricular inflow pattern suggests a restrictive filling abnormality, with elevated left atrial pressure. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. The tricuspid valve leaflets fail to fully coapt. Moderate to severe [3+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. Significant pulmonic regurgitation is seen. The end-diastolic pulmonic regurgitation velocity is increased suggesting pulmonary artery diastolic hypertension. There is an anterior space which most likely represents a fat pad. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [2146-9-11], the right ventricular cavity is slightly larger with more severe free wall hypokinesis. The other findings are similar. Brief Hospital Course: 67 F with DM, 2 vessel CAD, CKD, and ischemic cardiomyopathy (EF (20-25%) initially admitted with hyperglycemia after missing insulin for several days. With administration of home doses of insulin, hyperglycemia corrected. There was no evidence for an infection. Hospital course was then complicated by the development of hypotension from decompensated CHF. Although patient ruled out for an acute ischemic event, echo showed progression of cardiac dysfunction with an EF of 20%, 3+ tricuspid regurgitation and severe RV dysfunction with free wall hypokinesis. Transferred to the CCU for further management and started on lasix and milironone drip to optimize cardiac output. CCU course complicated by the development of PEA requiring cardiac resuscitation with intubation and 4 pressor support. Given the patient's end stage heart failure and prognosis, the family decided to withdraw care. A morphine drip was initiated and pressors and mechanical ventilation was discontinued. Time of death was 4:30am on [2146-11-10]. Her son (next of [Doctor First Name ]) and niece [Name (NI) 382], declined an autopsy. Medications on Admission: 1.

The left ventricular cavity is moderately dilated. There is severe global left ventricular hypokinesis (LVEF = 15-20%). Right ventricular chamber size is normal. with mild global free wall hypokinesis. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve appears structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. The left ventricular inflow pattern suggests a restrictive filling abnormality, with elevated left atrial pressure. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Moderately dilated left ventricle with severe global systolic dysfunction. Elevated filling pressures. Mild pulmonary hypertension. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [2121-8-8], the findings are similar. [2122-1-1] Cardiac Catheterization 1. Selective coronary angiography of this left dominant system revealed no angiographically apparent coronary artery disease. The LMCA, LAD, LCX and RCA had no angiographically apparent flow-limiting stenoses. 2. Resting hemodynamics revealed mildly elevated right and left sided filling pressures with RVEDP of 12 mm Hg and PCWP mean of 19 mm Hg at baseline. There was moderate pulmonary arterial hypertension of 45/21 mm Hg. Systemic arterial blood pressure was normal at 103/65 mm Hg. Cardiac index was depressed at a baseline value of 1.7 l/min/m2. After milrinone bolus of 0.5 mcg/kg IV over 10 minutes, left sided filling pressure were unchanged with a PCWP mean of 19 mm Hg. Pulmonary arterial pressure decreased to 40/18 mm Hg. Pulmonary vascular resistance also decreased. Cardiac index improved to 2.2 l/min/m2. There was no change in systemic arterial blood pressure. 3. Left ventriculography was not performed. Brief Hospital Course: (1) DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHY AND CHF Mr. [Known lastname ] has a dilated cardiomyopathy that was diagnosed after presenting with Class III CHF symptoms in [9-27]; it is thought to be of viral etiology. TTE from [8-2] showed an EF of 20%. He is s/p AICD placement in [2117] after VT was diagnosed on Holter monitor. During this admission, he had evidence of worsening heart failure on CXR ultimately requiring intubation for pulmonary edema that was refractory to diuresis. After six days on a lasix drip, he was weaned off the ventillator. He was also on milrinone for inotropic support. On [2122-1-1], he was taken for a milrinone study in the cath [Date Range ], which showed improvement in CI from 1.7 l/min/m2 off milrinone to 2.2 l/min/m2 after a milrinone bolus. He was continued briefly on milrinone after the study. However, he was ultimately discharged to home off milrinone. He was sent home on metoprolol 150 mg PO TID, lisinopril 2.5 mg PO BID and digoxin 0.125 mg PO QD. (2)ATRIAL FIBRILLATION with RAPID VENTRICULAR RATE He has pre-existing AFib with RVR with heart rates as high as 160's. His rate was controlled to the 90 - 110 range with metoprolol, and he was discharged on metoprolol 150 mg PO TID. He was on a heparin drip throughout the hospitalization for anticoagulation and sent home on coumadin with [Hospital 6669] [Hospital3 ] follow-up. (3) C. DIFF COLITIS Mr. [Known lastname ] had a fever and diarrhea and was found to be C. diff toxin positive. He was treated initially with PO flagyl; however, PO vancomycin was later added when his leukocytosis, fever and symptoms did not improve and there was for concern for a flagyl-resistant strain. He completed a 14 day course of PO flagyl and PO vancomycin after his broad spectrum antibiotics were discontinued (see below). (4) PERSISTENT FEVERS AND LEUKOCYTOSIS Although most likely secondary to C. diff infection, his fever and leukocytosis persisted even after treatment for C. diff colitis was initiated. Blood and urine cultures were negative. There was a question of RUL infiltrate on CXR, and he was treated empirically for five days with IV vancomycin and cefepime for a possible hospital acquired pneumonia. (5) ACUTE RENAL FAILURE His baseline creatinine is ~0.8 - 1.0. On admission Cr was noted to be 1.3, likely from decreased renal perfusion from his cardiac disease. Later in the admission, he again developed ARF likely secondary to contrast exposures, intravascular volume depletion and poor cardiac output. He was discharged with Cr above baseline but trending down, with out-patient follow-up.

Bacterial culture results are invalid. PLEASE SUBMIT ANOTHER SPECIMEN. RESPIRATORY CULTURE (Final [2192-12-3]): TEST CANCELLED, PATIENT CREDITED. . . Radiology . XR CHEST (PORTABLE AP) Study Date of [2192-12-2] 12:25 PM FINDINGS: There is a rounded opacity in the right upper lobe. There is left basilar atelectasis. Lung volumes are slightly low. The cardiac silhouette, hilar and mediastinal contours appear within normal limits. There is no pneumothorax or pleural effusion. IMPRESSION: Right upper lobe consolidative opacity worrisome for pneumonia. Recommend repeat chest radiograph after appropriate treatment to assess for resolution. Left basilar atelectasis. . XR CHEST (PORTABLE AP) Study Date of [2192-12-3] 5:07 AM Portable AP chest radiograph was reviewed in comparison to [2192-12-2]. The right upper lobe rounded opacity appears to be slightly bigger than on the prior study and might be consistent with gradual progression of infectious process. Left retrocardiac consolidation is unchanged. Right basal atelectasis is unchanged. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable. Followup of the right upper lobe consolidation to complete resolution is mandatory. . [2192-12-6]: MRI BRAIN WITHOUT IV CONTRAST: The study is very limited, with incomplete diffusion imaging. Within the limitations of obtaining only the directional sequence of the diffusion study, there is no evidence of acute infarction. Non-contrast sagittal T1-weighted images show no mass effect or hematoma. IMPRESSIONS: Very limited study due to early termination shows no evidence of acute infarction, mass effect, or hematoma. Brief Hospital Course: 72-year-old male with AChR +ve myasthenia [Last Name (un) 2902], Duodenal angiomas, asthma, diastolic CHF and AF presents with fevers, chills and SOB and was found to be in fast AF with evidence of multifocal pneumonia on CXR. Considerable myasthenic sx (not affecting respiratory muscles but had mild proximal fatiguable weakness) on admission but now improving with persistent eye signs. . # Multi-lobar Pneumonia with acute respiratory failure: Evidence of predominantly RUL consolidation but also left base changes in context of fevers, chills and worsening SOB. Patient started on Levofloxacin and Ceftriaxone for CAP and given potential for worsening MG with levofloxacin this was changed to azithromycin. BCs, Sputum cultures, Urine legionella Ag was negative. WBC downtrending on hospital day 2 but CXR ppeared slightly worse with evidence of left base consolidation. He was treated with PRN nebs. He symptomaticlly improved, and was discharged to complete a total of 14 days of treatment on cefpodoxime (already completed 1 week of azithromycin). He will need a repeat CXR in [3-6] weeks to monitor for resolution. . # Rapid Atrial Fibrillation: On home maintained on diltiazem 240mg [Hospital1 ]. Noted to have rate 130 at EMS and rate in ICU 100s-140s however had not received daily nodal agents. On evening of admission received 120mg of diltiazem. On morning of hospital day 2 resumed full home dose diltiazem 240mg [Hospital1 ]. He was changed to short acting diltiazem 90mg Q6 on [12-3] as rate was still high. Regarding anticoagulation, patient not anticoagulated as an outpatient. Started on ASA 325mg which was discontinued in the setting of GI bleeding. He was discharged from the ICU on [12-3] and his HR was 90s-100s. On diltiazem 240 mg po bid he had HR in the 80's on the day of discharge. . # AChR +ve Myasthenia: Sees O/P neurologist. Usually on regular pyridostigmine and azathioprine. Current significant symptoms with complex ophthalmoplegia, ptosis and fatiguable proximal weakness with dysarthria. Generally poor chest wall movement. Baseline ABG obtained which was reassuring for intact respiratory status and showed respiratory alkalosis. Patient was unable to cooperate with FVC. Patient continued on azathioprine 150mg and pyridostigmine 90mg qid and glycopyrrolate. By Day 2 he had improved - no longer had proximal weakness but had persistent ocular symptosm with partial ptosis on left and very limited eye movement on the left especially in adduction and upgaze bilaterally. Neurology were consulted and followed. He eventually stabilized on his home doses of pyridostigmine and azathioprine, as well as glycopyrollate. . # Gait ataxia. He exhibited gait ataxian on hospital day 3. This improved slowly with increased ambulation. A partial MRI was completed, which showed no acute infarcts. He will be discharged with home PT and a walker. . # HTN: On admission relatively hypotensive systolic pressures improved in [Hospital Unit Name 153]. Held furosemide in setting of presenting hypotension thoguh this was restarted prior to discharge. . # Hx dCHF: furosemide was held during admission, with no signs of volume overload. Furosemide 80 mg po daily was restarted at discharge. . # Asthma: No further significant wheeze. He was given PRN Xopenex nebs . # Gastrointestinal bleeding, with history of angiomas. He was started on heparin SC and aspirin 325, then 81. On hospital day 4, he developed guaic positive stool. Prilosec was increased to 40 mg po bid, and heparin and aspirin were discontinued. He had a slow drift down in his hematocrit. He will follow up with Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] [Last Name (NamePattern4) 1940], his primary gastroenterologist for an enteroscopy in the next 4-6 weeks. . # Diarrhea. The patient developed diarrhea occurring 3 times daily at the time of discharge. C Diff testing was negative. It is most likely that this represents a mediation side effect potentially from glycopyrollate. He will follow-up as an outpatient for further management of this issue. .

Liver failure: On admission, the ultrasound demonstrated that the patient's liver was diffusely heterogeneous with no discreet mass. Imaging was consistent with cirrhosis, though biopsy would be needed to confirm diagnosis. The differential diagnosis was broad, including infectious disease, autoimmune disease, and inherited disorders, such as hemosiderosis, which was strongly considered given the positive family history. The liver service was consulted and a full work-up was initiated. Hepatitis serologies were unremarkable. An AFP> 1 million was concerning for HCC. Iron studies were suggestive of hemochromatosis and hemochromatosis gene analysis was positive for a homozygous C282Y mutation. An abdominal MRI demonstrated background hemosiderosis, a large left lobe liver mass compatible with hepatoma invading left portal vein with left portal vein thrombosis, and additional multifocal areas of signal abnormality scattered throughout both lobes of liver compatible with multifocal hepatoma. It was felt that the patient had developed cirrhosis secondary to hemochromatosis and in turn developed malignant transformation. The liver oncology service was consulted and felt that given the multifocal involvement, locoregional therapies or transplantation were not indicated. Sorafenib was felt to be of limited benefit. The patient declined further aggressive chemotherapy and elected to be comfort measures only. He was discharged home with hospice. . erythrocytosis: The differential diagnosis included polycythemia [Doctor First Name ] vs. epo producing neoplasm such as hepatocellular carcinoma. The patient had an elevated epo level and evidence of HCC as above. The patient was treated with serial phlebotomy per the hematology service. . renal failure: The renal service was consulted. The patient was felt to have hepatorenal syndrome. Dialysis was initiated in-house and was discontinued on discharge given the change toward hospice care. . portal vein thrombus: Felt to likely be associated with HCC. Anti-coagulation was initially held given the patient's occult blood positive stool. Further therapy was held given the patient's change in goals of care toward palliation. . hypertension: The patient's home medications were held given his borderline blood pressures throughout the admission. . FEN: The patient was placed on a renal diet. He was given dextrose IV as needed for hypoglycemia. . ppx: The patient was placed on heparin sc throughout the admission. . Communication: Multiple family meetings were held with the patient, his wife and children involved.

He presents now with coffee ground emesis for one day. Initially he woke up Friday morning with nausea and vomiting which was non-bloody, non-bilious and persisted throughout the day. During the night prior to presentation he had an episode of vomiting which was coffee ground appearing but not frankly bloody. He had multiple episodes of coffee ground emesis and so decided to go to ED. N/V is associated with [2144-7-30] epigastric pain that is sharp, non-radiating, not assoicated with PO intake, though he has not been tolerating POs during this presentation. In the ED he was given IVF 1L NS, protonix 80 mg IV, Reglan 10 mg, Compazine 10 mg, Zofran 8 mg, morphine 8 mg. Type and screen sent and his lactate was found to be 5.7. EJ was placed for access as he has poor peripheral veins, labs had to be drawn from femoral sticks because of poor peripheral access. In ED he also vomited 300 cc of coffee ground vomitous, was guaiac positive and had guaiac positive brown stool from below. He was sent to MICU for GI bleed, hematemesis and elevated lactate. Past Medical History: IDDM2 CKD stage IV on HD Diabetic gastroparesis Hypertension Hyperlipidemia Anxiety/Depression Mild esophagitis on EGD [1-/2145] Social History: He denies tobacco, alcohol, or drug use except for smoking marijuana which he smokes daily.

Abdominal ultrasound 1. No evidence of intra- or extra-hepatic biliary ductal dilatation or evidence of retained biliary stone. 2. Small amount of ascites noted in the right and left lower quadrant as well as left upper quadrant. 3. Mildly echogenic liver might be secondary to steatosis. Other forms of hepatic disease cannot be excluded. . CXR [9-4]: The patient has received a right internal jugular vein catheter. The tip of the catheter projects over the superior IVC. No evidence of complications, notably no pneumothorax. Moderate cardiomegaly without evidence of pulmonary edema. No pleural effusions. No focal parenchymal opacities suggesting pneumonia. Known small sclerotic lesion in the right clavicle, likely reflecting a bone island. . CXR [9-5]: As compared to the previous radiograph, there is no relevant change. Moderate cardiomegaly without overt pulmonary edema. No pleural effusions. No focal parenchymal opacity suggesting pneumonia. Unchanged course and position of the right central venous access line. Brief Hospital Course: 35 yo M with IDDM, ESRD on HD, chronic gastroparesis requiring hospital admissions for emesis who presents now with hematemesis. . #Hematemsis/Abdominal Pain: Given chronic history of emesis and acute history of vomiting all day before hematemesis started the most likely cause of bleeding is from [Initials (NamePattern4) ] [Last Name (NamePattern4) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) ] tear. Other possiblities in differential included peptic ulcer disease although the patient is on protonix at home, gastritis or esophagitis. The patient's nausea was controlled to prevent vomiting induced GI bleed with Reglan, Zofran and then reinitiation of Erythromycin. The patient was kept on IV pantoprazole 40mg twice daily. He had cleared with 2 liters NG tube lavage and therefore, his NGT was removed - also per the patient's strong request. His hematocrits were rechecked every 8 hours and his hemodynamics monitored closely in the MICU - which all remained stable. The patient was typed and crossed for four units of blood and kept NPO per below. He received Dilaudid IV PRN and his home aspirin was held. When EGD was performed, there was evidence of erosive esophagitis and Barretts could not be excluded. He was recommended high dose [Hospital1 ] PPI and follow up EGD in [3-26] months. Follow up with GI was arranged. . #Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis. His AG was 20 on presentation to the MICU. His ABG demonstrated normal pH so he likely has a component of metabolic alkalosis as well. Likely lactic acidosis and a metabolic alkalosis from vomiting. He also has ESRD and so he has electrolyte/pH imbalance chronically from renal failure. On recheck prior to transfer out of the MICU, he still had an anion gap ~16 but it appears he has had gaps in the past. The patient was given gentle fluids to improve his metabolic status, antiemetics to reduce acid loss from vomiting and his ESRD was managed with hemodialysis, nephrocaps, aluminum hydroxide and increased sevelamer (predominantly for hyperphosphatemia). . # Gastroparesis. He was continued on home erythromycin and was able to tolerate home diet at the time of his discharge. . #DM: Chronic issue, poorly controlled. The patient was continued on home insulin regimen. . #HTN: Chronic, poorly controlled. He has been hemodynamically stable and actually hypertensive in the setting of hematemesis. The patient was restarted on his home medications for hypertension and in general, he was closely monitored for hemodynamic instability in the setting of his hematemesis. He remained stable on Amlodipine 5mg daily, lisinopril 5mg daily. . #ESRD: Chronic, on Hemodialysis Monday, Wednesday, Friday. The patient was very gently volume resuscitated given his risk of volume overload. Renal was aware of the patient for his usual dialysis schedule. He was continued on Nephrocaps and Sevelemer was increased in the setting of hyperphosphatemia to >11. The patient was also started on aluminimum hydroxide. Nephrotoxins were avoided. . #Nutrition: The patient was kept NPO for the first evening and first full day of admission secondary to ongoing nausea and dry heaving/gags. NGT initially placed but patient requested its removal. The patient was then kept NPO although improving feelings of nausea as the patient was to be kept NPO after midnight for possible EGD in the morning anyway. Post EGD, he was tolerating a full diet and he was discharged . #Access: RIJ was placed given poor access . #Communication: Patient, Wife . #Code status: Full Medications on Admission: 1. vancomycin in D5W 1 gram/200 mL Piggyback Sig: One (1) Intravenous HD PROTOCOL (HD Protochol) as needed for cellulitis: Pt will recieve two more [Date Range 4319] of Vanc at HD on Monday [8-9] and Wednesday [8-11]. 2. lorazepam 1 mg Tablet Sig: One (1) Tablet PO Q8H (every 8 hours) as needed for anxiety. 3.

The night PTA, he had restless sleep, woke at 3:30am and showered to get ready for the day. His wife got up at 6:30 and prepared breakfast. Prior to breakfast he was sitting [Location (un) 1131] the newspaper and his wife noted that he was "shaking" badly. He commented that he was "cold". She took his temp, which was 97F. They sat down to eat breakfast and he began to act odd. He sat very far away from the table. With prompting, he scooted to the table. He then was unable to properly use his fork to eat his eggs. His wife then called her PCP who recommended that they go to the ED. She called 911. Per the ED report (but no documentation in the chart), the pt was hypoglycemic in field to 27 and received dextrose. In the ED, he had a head CT that was negative for bleed or infarct. Glucose was 108. He had a temperature of 104. Initially his VS were BP 133/78, H 84 and evolved to 90-100s systolic and HR of 100-120s. He was given dilt 5mg x 2 for RVR. CXR was initially read as right middle lobe infiltrate and he was given ceftriaxone 1 g and azithromycin 500mg. There was some discussion about meningitis, but he was not given meningitis doses of medications. His neurologist felt that this was less likely meningitis and recommended against LP in the setting of therapeutic INR. When he arrived to the MICU, his SBPs were in the 70s. An arterial line was placed. He was bolused 4 more liters with improvement to 90-100s.

No left atrial mass/thrombus seen (best excluded by transesophageal echocardiography). Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size, and global systolic function are normal (LVEF>55%). Due to suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic root is mildly dilated at the sinus level. The ascending aorta is mildly dilated. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic stenosis. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality. Normal biventricular cavity sizes with preserved global biventricular systolic function. Mild mitral regurgitation. Trace aortic regurgitation. Dilated ascending aorta. Brief Hospital Course: RESPIRATORY SYMPTOMS: Mr. [Known lastname 23203] is a 74 yo male who presented with a three-day history of progressive respiratory symptoms (rhinorrhea, productive cough, fevers) and mental status change. He was found to have a RML pneumonia radiographically and was positive for influenza A. On presentation, he initially required aggressive fluid resuscitation, but thereafter remained hemodynamically stable. He required admission to the MICU for hypotension and concern for sepsis. He was started empirically on vancomycin and ceftrazidime, as well as tamiflu for influenza. Sputum cultures were negative. He competed a five day course of levofloxacin and tamiflu. CHANGE IN MENTAL STATUS: The patient's course was complicated by delirium, in particular sun-downing in the evenings. This was felt to be due to his underlying flu, pneumonia and the ICU environment. He became significantly agitated at night, requiring chemical and mechanical restraints. He also required a 1:1 sitter for safety. The decision was made to start the patient on a low dose of seroquel early in the evening, although this was discontinued by the time of discharge. His mental status dramatically improved with treatment of his underlying lung processes, and he was doing crossword puzzles and had no evidence of delirium upon discharge. ATRIAL FIBRILLATION WITH RVR: While in the ICU, the patient was noted to have AFib with RVR with heart rates as high as 150 during periods of intense agitation. He was started on a diltiazem drip. He later became hypotensive and was temporarily on digoxin until blood pressure stabilized, at which point he was restarted on home lopressor. An ECHO was also obtained which showed normal cardiac function. He was maintained on coumadin for anticoagulation, though his INR was labile while on antibiotics. HSV-1 OUTBREAK: The patient was noted to have multiple vesicular lesions on the upper and lower lips in the mid-line, as well as a small area of vesicles on the right chin and right neck. DFA was positive for HSV-1. He was started on a short course of acyclovir PO. ** PENDING ISSUES FOR FOLLOW-UP: (1) He needs an INR check with necessary Coumadin dosage adjustment on Friday, [3-18]. This is to be done by the PCP [Name Initial (PRE) 3726].

Brief Hospital Course: Mr. [Known lastname ] is a 66 year old man with PVD, multiple cardiac risk factors presented with signs and symptoms of new CHF. He ruled-out for acute MI then subsequently underwent cardiac catheterization to identify the cause of the new onset heart failure. The coronary angiography revealed 3 vessel disease and he was referred to cardiac surgery for CABG. A subsequent echocardiogram revealed moderate to sever aortic regurgitation. On [2105-6-19] he was taken to the operating room and underwent a coronary artery bypass graft times four (LIMA to LAD, SVG to PDA, SVG to OM and SVG to Ramus) and an AVR (23mm CE Perimount Bioprothesis). This procedure was performed by Dr. [First Name (STitle) ] [Name (STitle) ]. He tolerated the procedure well and was able to be transferred in critical but stable condition to the surgical intensive care unit. In the surgical intensive care unit he progressed well. He was extubated and his chest tubes were removed by post-operative day one. He was weaned from his pressors. On the following day his epicardial wires and swan were removed. He was placed on amiodarone for atrial fibrillation. On post-operative day three he was transferred to the surgical step down floor. On the floor he was seen in consultation by the physical therapy service. The [Last Name (un) ] diabetes clinic saw him in consultation. By post-operative day four he was ready for discharge in stable condition to home.

She states that she usually binge drinks around [9-17] which is her mother's birthday. She has had little po but ETOH for the past two days and reports a single ingestion of cocaine with her girlfreinds several days ago. She reports history of DTs but no history of seizures. Vitals on scene were BP 165/124, HR 1008, o2 97. Her glucose was 47. She was brought to [Hospital1 ] [Location (un) 620] ED and her ABG there was 7.45/45/18. Her lactate was 10 and Hct 57. sodium and K 130, 2.5. Her CIWA WAS 36 and she was given ativan (total 1.5 mg iv). A central line was placed and she was given 7L IVF. She remained hypotensive to the 70s and norepinephrine was stared. She also received zofran 4mg iv x1, zosyn and k and mag repletion. Before transfer to ED here, ABG was 7.31/37/78 and lactate 2.7. On arrival to ED here, BP 128/57 HR 81 O2 96 on 2L NC. Her antibiotics were broadened to vancomycin/zosyn given her hypotension and given her OB positive stool and abdominal pain with elevated lactate, a CT was obtained which showed non-specific enteritis. Surgery was consulted and recommended admission to medicine with GI consult and CTA id persisetent concern for ischemic colitis. During her ED course she received valium 10 IV x 2, protonix 80mg IV x 1 and additional K repletion. He levophed was weaned and has been off since 0510 this am. . On arrival to ICU, she is complaining of abdominal pain. She states taht she has had nothing but etoh for 3 days. Her binge began 3 weeks ago. She drinks at least a gallon of dark rum per day. Other than when binging, she does not drink every day and can go "for weeks". She used cocaine only once and prior use before then was about a year. She reports that she began vomiting and having diarrhea on sunday. She did not have any ETOH to drink on Monday. On tuesday, she felt withdrawal symptoms and had six "nips" (airplane bottle size). Her sister called EMS that evening. She reports seeing maroon blood in her diarrhea, mioxed in. She has seen this before and has assumed that it is from her hemorhoids which falre whn she drinks. She denies seeing any blood or coffee grounds in her emesis. . Review of systems: see metavision. negative for cp. positive for exertional dyspnea.

Unit No: [Numeric Identifier 62035] Admission Date: [2119-7-11] Discharge Date: [2119-7-11] Date of Birth: [2119-7-11] Sex: M Service: NB HISTORY AND PHYSICAL: The infant is a 35-5/7 weeks 2195 gram male newborn who was admitted to the NICU for congenital heart disease. The infant was born to a 35 year old G1 P0 mother. Prenatal screens were O positive, antibody negative, hepatitis B surface antigen negative, RPR nonreactive, rubella immune, GBS unknown. This pregnancy was complicated by a placenta subchorionic hematoma noted at 8 weeks, chronic hypertension maintained on Aldomet, and known congenital heart disease. Question of heart disease was raised on the first initial fetal survey. A fetal echocardiogram at 30 weeks done at [Hospital3 1810] revealed a probable tetralogy of Fallot, possible pulmonary atresia, good sized branched pulmonary arteries, overriding aorta, co-ventricular VSD, and good biventricular function. Maternal medications included Nexium, Zoloft, Aldomet and prenatal vitamins. Mother had been routinely followed at the [Hospital1 69] antepartum testing unit for fetal decelerations. Today the infant failed an oxytocin challenge test, prompting decision to deliver today by cesarean section. Referring hospital was [Hospital3 ], and pediatric provider is [Last Name (NamePattern4) ]. [First Name4 (NamePattern1) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 3501] of [Hospital 1465] Pediatrics. At delivery, the infant was vigorous, with good tone and spontaneous cry. Routine neonatal resuscitation was given, including blow-by O2 for poor color. Apgars were 8 and 8. The infant was shown to the parents, then transported to the NICU. On exam, vital signs were heart rate 144, respiratory rate 40- 60s, actively crying, blood pressure 72/65 with a mean of 67, temperature 99. Growth parameters - weight of 2195 grams (25th percentile), length 45 cm (25-50th percentile), head circumference 30 cm (just greater than the 10th percentile). The infant was vigorous, in no acute distress, although cyanotic in room air, with room air oxygen saturations 82- 85%. He appeared slightly dysmorphic, with low set ears and a broad nasal bridge. Anterior fontanel was soft and flat. The lungs and chest revealed mild intermittent grunting, though he was clear to auscultation bilaterally and equal. Cardiac exam was regular rate and rhythm. He did have a murmur which was loudest at the left mid sternal border to the upper sternal border, with some radiation across to the right upper sternal border. There were no clicks or extra heart sounds. 2+ femoral pulses and [2-12] second perfusion. Abdomen was soft, with good bowel sounds and no hepatosplenomegaly. Genitourinary was a normal male, patent anus, no sacral anomalies. Hips were stable and he moved all his extremities well. Impression/Plan: This is a preterm male newborn with known cyanotic congenital heart disease. Two peripheral intravenous lines were started, and a prostaglandin infusion was begun at 0.01 mcg/kg/minute. Early management was discussed with the cardiology service, and the infant was transferred to the cardiology service at [Hospital3 1810] for continued care and management. The infant was placed NPO and was receiving maintenance intravenous fluids. Although he was preterm, there was no sign of respiratory distress syndrome, though with his intermittent mild grunting, he possibly has some mild TTN, and respiratory support will need to be continued to be monitored. There are no sepsis risk factors, though he was premature and mother had an unknown GBS status. A CBC with differential and blood culture was obtained, and antibiotics were not begun at this time. The plan for stabilization and transfer had been discussed with the family at the time of the prenatal consult. CONDITION ON DISCHARGE: Guarded. DISPOSITION: [Hospital3 1810] cardiac unit, P6. NAME OF PRIMARY PEDIATRICIAN: Dr. [First Name4 (NamePattern1) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 3501], [Hospital 1465] Pediatrics. CARE RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. NPO. 2. MEDICATIONS: Prostaglandin drip at 0.01 mcg/kg/minute. 3. A car seat position screening test was not done prior to transfer, and will need to be done per AAP recommendations prior to discharge to home. 4. State newborn screening status - An initial state newborn screen was obtained at less than 24 hours prior to discharge from the [Hospital1 69] NICU. 5. No immunizations have been received. IMMUNIZATIONS RECOMMENDED: Synagis RSV prophylaxis should be considered from [Month (only) ] through [Month (only) 958] for infants who meet any of the following three criteria: 1. Born at less than 32 weeks. 2. Born between 32-35 weeks with two of the following: day care during RSV season, a smoker in the household, neuromuscular disease, airway abnormalities or school age siblings. 3. With chronic lung disease. Influenza immunization is recommended annually in the fall for all infants once they reach six months of age. Before this age, and for the first 24 months of the child's life, immunization against influenza is recommended for household contacts and out of home caregivers. DISCHARGE DIAGNOSES: 1. Preterm male. 2. Appropriate for gestational age. 3. Congenital heart disease, tetralogy of Fallot. 4. Question of mild dysmorphic features. Rule out DiGeorge syndrome. 5. Rule out sepsis, with no antibiotics at this time.

Pt was inititally admitted to an OSH with resp failure secondary to pneumonia, which required intubation. He susequently developed a Left PTX and received 2 Left sided chest tubes. Pt was extubated on [7-7] and one of his CT??????s was removed on [7-8]. Pt was initially noted to be confused and agitated, which has subsequently improved once he left the MICU. A post-pyloric NGT was successfully placed and pt was at goal tube feeds of 40 cc/hr. Throughout his stay he noted a non-radiating pain in his L chest over the CT. He continued to have a cough. Pt also received a post-pyloric nasogastric tube after he failed a swallow evaluation post extubation. He was maintained at goal tube feeds of 40 cc/hr until he pulled out the tube. A repeat swallow evaluation was normal and the patient's diet was advanced as tolerated. 1. Respiratory Failure. Etiology thought to be multifactorial. Pt was successfully extubated on [2128-7-7] and transferred out of the intensive care unit on [2128-7-10]. His O2 sats were initially maintained on 2.5 L NC and on RA prior to discharge. Oncology was consulted while the pt was in the intensive care unit for his NSCLC. It was determined that he was not a surgical candidate and radiation oncology was consulted to talk to the pt about radiation therapy for palliation. A CT w/ contast was done to evaluate his tumor burden. He was given IVF and mucomyst for his CRI. Pt will follow-up with radiation oncology and oncology as an out-patient. 2. COPD. Likely contributing to his respitory symptoms. He was started on prednisone in the unit, which was subsequently tapered prior to his discharge. He was continued on nebulizer and inhaler treatments. He was also given Guaifenesin q 6 hrs for cough. 3. PTX, thought to be secondary to barotrauma. One chest tube was removed in the unit. Subcutaneous emphysema developed. It sebsequently improved and the chest tube was changed from wall suction to water seal and then to air. It continued to drain pus and was left in place at the time of discharge as per thoracic surgery's recommendation. The patient and his daugher were instructed on how to care for the tube and a follow-up appointment was made with thoracic surgery. They plan to remove the tube 2 inches per week. 4. HTN. Well controlled throughout his hospital stay on ACEI and B-B. 5. Hyponatremia. Etiology thought to be secondary to large amounts of free water boluses added to his tube feeds. Hyponatremia resolved once the fluid boluses were decreased. 6. CRI. Baseline Cr reported as 1.7. Cr decreased to 1.2, however bumped to 1.5 post contrast. He was aggressively hydrated and his Cr improved to 1.3 on day of discharge. 7. ID. staph bacteremia- initially started on iv oxacillin which was then changed to dicloxacillin. Pt continued to spike temps during his stay. Bld, Sputum, Pleural fluid, and Urine cultures were obtained. Blood and pleural fluid with MSSA. Urine grew GPC in pairs and clusters. Pt started on IV Vanco while on the floor. 8. GI. Pt had 1 episode of melena. Etiology thought to be gastritis or small ulcer. pt has 2 PIV's. he was consented and crossmatched, however remained hemodynamically stable. He was on po protonix. No EGD performed given clinical stability & comorbities. 9. Agitation. Noted while pt was in the unit, however appeared to resolve once the patient was on the floor.

Resting hemodynamics revealed moderately elevated right and left sided filling pressures with an RVEDP of 13mmHg and LVEDP of 21mmHg. There was moderate-to-severe pulmonary arterial systolic hypertension with a PASP of 68mmHg. The cardiac index was mildly reduced at 2.11L/min/m2. FINAL DIAGNOSIS: 1. Mildly elevated right and left sided filling pressures. 2. Pulmonary hypertension and moderately elevated PVR LE US ([2107-9-25]): No evidence of DVT in the left lower extremity. Probable hematoma extending from the anterior upper to mid calf. Clinical correlation advised. Echo ([2107-9-26]) PREBYPASS: The left atrium is markedly dilated. No spontaneous echo contrast is seen in the body of the left atrium or left atrial appendage. Left ventricular wall thicknesses are normal. The left ventricular cavity is moderately dilated. Overall left ventricular systolic function is mildly depressed (LVEF= 45-50 %). There is hypokinesis of the inferior and septal walls. Right ventricular systolic function is normal with normal free wall contractility. There are three aortic valve leaflets. The aortic valve leaflets are severely thickened/deformed. There is critical aortic valve stenosis (valve area <0.8cm2). Mild (1+) aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened with some restriction of both the anterior and posterior leaflets. Moderate to severe (3+) mitral regurgitation is seen. 3D imaging reveals failure of coaptation between the A3 and P3 leaflets. There is mild tricuspid regurgitation. There is no pericardial effusion. There is a left pleural effusion. POSTBYPASS: The patient is A-paced on epinephrine and phenylephrine infusions. Left ventricular systolic function is improved with the inotrope (LVEF 50-55%). Hypokinesis of the inferior and septal walls persists. Right ventricular systolic function is now mildly depressed. Mild tricuspid regurgitation persists. There is a new aortic bioprosthetic valve which is well seated with good leaflet excursion. Peak/mean gradients are 15/7 mmHg. The aortic valve area was calculated to be 1.5 cm2. There is trace aortic regurgitation which is central. There are no perivalvular leaks. Mitral regurgitation is now moderate (2+). Aortic contours are normal. Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] was informed of the results at the time of the study.

He was admitted with decompensated heart failure (acute on chronic) secondary to his severe aortic stenosis. Upon admission he was medically managed for his heart failure and aggressively diuresed. with vast improvement in peripheral and pulmonary edema prior to surgery. He was also treated for his previous history of Atrial fibrillation. He received Amiodarone and beta-blockers daily and was transition from Coumadin to Heparin for anticoagulation. Diabetes management was also closely monitored and [Last Name (un) ] was consulted for management due to his insulin resistant state and variable diet. On [9-20] he underwent a right heart cath to evaluate volume status and PA hypertension prior to aortic valve replacement. Cath revealed mildly elevated right and left sided filling pressures. Along with pulmonary hypertension and moderately elevated PVR. On [9-21] he underwent a TEE to further assess his mitral valve. Echo revealed moderate to severe (3+) mitral regurgitation. On this day cardiac surgery was consulted and he required a few additional lab studies prior to surgery. Mr. [Known lastname 25307] developed a right thigh hematoma post-cath with difficulty with leg flexibility. Ultrasound revealed a thigh hematoma. Orthopaedics was consulted to evaluate for compartment syndrome. Orthopaedics evaluation was negative for compartment syndrome and patient received pain management. IV Heparin was discontinued before surgery due to this hematoma and he was cleared for surgery on [9-26]. On this day he underwent a redo-sternotomy, aortic valve replacement with Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ]. Please see operative report for surgical details. Following surgery he was transferred to the CVICU for invasive monitoring in stable but critical condition (titrated on propofol, epinephrine,and phenylephrine drips). Within 24 hours he was weaned from sedation, awoke neurologically intact and extubated. Immediately post-op pulmonary was consulted for improved management of his pulmonary hypertension (Nitric Oxide and Sildenafil was started). On post-op day one he was started on beta-blockers and aggressively diuresed. By post-op day two pressors were titrated off. Chest tubes and pacing wires were removed per protocol. He remained in the CVICU until post-op day four receiving additional care for his pulmonary status as described above. On this day he was transferred to the telemetry floor for further care. Physical therapy and [Last Name (un) ] followed Mr. [Known lastname 25307] during his entire post-op course. His diet was slowly transitioned back to a regular consistency diabetic diet. He continued to receive pulmonary toilet, medical management and repletion of his electrolytes over the next several days. On post-op day seven he appeared to be doing well enough to be discharged to rehab ([Hospital ] center in [Location (un) 1157]). Appropriate medications and follow-up appointments were made.

Admission Date: [2148-10-3] Discharge Date: [2148-10-5] Service: CCU CHIEF COMPLAINT: Chest pain and shortness of breath status post left anterior descending stenting HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a [Age over 90 ]-year-old woman, a nursing home resident, with known coronary artery disease status post percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of the left anterior descending x 2 in [2137], non-Q myocardial infarction in [2145], who complained of chest pain associated with shortness of breath starting the night prior to admission. She was given sublingual nitroglycerin at the nursing home. She was then brought to the Emergency Room at 2 P.M. on the day of admission. In the Emergency Room, her temperature was 97.6, blood pressure 91/43, pulse 75, respirations 21, and oxygen saturation 98% on 2 liters. Her examinations were notable for bilateral pedal edema, bilateral crackles, and guaiac positive stools. Her electrocardiogram revealed atrial fibrillation with slow ventricular rate, incomplete left bundle branch block, ST elevations in V1 to V2, ST depression in I, II, AVL, V5 to V6, with T wave inversions in I, II, AVL and V3 through V6. She remained stable in the Emergency Room, and her initial CK was 91, troponin was less than .3, hematocrit was 33.4, and INR was 2.9. Because of the concern for acute myocardial infarction, she was started on a nitro drip and was brought to the catheterization laboratory directly. Catheterization revealed three vessel disease with left anterior descending proximal 80%, left circumflex proximal 70%, obtuse marginal I 80%, obtuse marginal II 80%, and right coronary artery proximal 60%, and mid 70% stenosis. The proximal left anterior descending was successfully stented. The right heart catheterization showed PA 63% with a calculated cardiac index of 2.34, RA pressure mean of 14, RV pressure 49/11, with an end diastolic pressure of 16, PA pressure 56/26, with a mean of 39, wedge of 25. Because of her initial INR of 2.9, she had excessive bleeding at the right femoral site, with Angioseal post-catheterization. The bleeding was controlled with pressure for two hours. Due to excessive bleeding, no Integrilin was given post-catheterization, and two units of fresh frozen plasma were ordered. She was transferred to the Coronary Care Unit for overnight observation. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: Coronary artery disease status post acute anterior myocardial infarction in [2137], status post percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of left anterior descending x 2, status post non-Q myocardial infarction in [2145], congestive heart failure, last echocardiogram in [2147-1-19] with an ejection fraction of 20 to 25%, new onset atrial fibrillation, started on Coumadin [2148-8-20], diabetes Type 2 diagnosed in [2146], chronic renal insufficiency, status post acute renal failure in [2146], baseline creatinine 1.7 to 2.0, hypertension, ascending aortic aneurysm size 4 x 4 cm, right upper lobe mass with mediastinal lymphadenopathy, dementia, osteoarthritis, glaucoma, status post right hip fracture in [2136].

ALLERGIES: No known drug allergies. SOCIAL HISTORY: [Hospital3 ] resident, no alcohol, no tobacco. REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: Worsening of dyspnea on exertion for several months, persistent chest pain associated with shortness of breath for about 12 hours prior to admission. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: Afebrile, blood pressure 100 to 110/30s to 40s, heart rate 60s to 70s, oxygen saturation 100% on 4 liters nasal cannula. General: Awake, alert and oriented times three, lying flat in bed, in no acute distress. Cardiovascular: Irregular rate and rhythm, normal S1 and S2. Lungs: Clear to auscultation bilaterally anteriorly. Abdomen: Soft, nontender, nondistended. Extremities: Right groin site with pressure dressing, large ecchymosis around the site, small hematoma, not extending beyond the marks, slight tenderness, bilateral distal pulses. LABORATORY DATA: White count 8.8, hematocrit 33.4 down to 22.9 post-catheterization, platelets 177 down to 161. PT 20.4, PTT 26.8, INR 2.9. After two units of transfusion, PT 16.4, PTT 42.8, INR 1.2. Chem 7: Sodium 139, potassium 4.9, chloride 107, bicarbonate 19, BUN 67, creatinine 1.9, glucose 215. First CK 91, troponin less than .3. HOSPITAL COURSE: She was ruled out for myocardial infarction with serial negative cardiac enzymes. Follow-up electrocardiograms were unremarkable. She received two units of fresh frozen plasma and one unit of packed red blood cells. Her hematocrit remained stable in the 30s after the transfusion. She was gently diuresed with low doses of intravenous lasix (20 mg), with good responses. Her oxygen saturations remained in the high 90s after being weaned off oxygen. While in-house, she had no more complaints of chest pain or shortness of breath. She reported feeling at her baseline. Given the multiple comorbidities, the decision was made to maximize her medical management. She was restarted on her regular outpatient regimen on hospital day two except with increased dose of lasix and a post-stenting Plavix. She was observed in-house for one more day, and discharged home on hospital day three in stable condition. Her most recent laboratories prior to discharge show a hematocrit of 30.2, platelets 150.

Admission Date: [2148-1-30] Discharge Date: [2148-2-10] Service: HISTORY OF THE PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is an 82-year-old male with known mitral valve disease and has been experiencing increased shortness of breath for several months and initially it was attributed to COPD; however, on repeat echocardiogram which showed worsening MR and LV dilatation, scheduled for cardiac catheterization and it showed LAD 80% occluded, left circumflex 99% occluded, 3+ MR, and elevated PA pressures. The patient was initially admitted to the Medicine Service for stabilization. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: 1. COPD. 2. Mitral valve disease. 3. Hypertension. 4. Pulmonary hypertension. 5. Coronary artery disease. 6. Status post MI in [2120]. 7. GERD. 8. Cataract. 9. Bladder cyst. HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was initially admitted to the Medicine Service and stabilized on the Medicine Service. The patient was taken by Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] to the Operating Room on [2148-2-2] and underwent a CABG times three, mitral valve repair, and annuloplasty. On postoperative day number one, the patient was admitted to the DIC CRSU on an intra-aortic balloon pump and paralyzed and sedated on Milrinone, Levophed, epinephrine, and Pitressin. The patient required multiple units of packed red blood cells and FFP to maintain his cardiac index. On postoperative day number one, the patient was started on CVVH given his renal impairment and also given his fluid overload. The patient was transferred to the unit. Postoperatively, the chest was left open because difficulty ventilating the patient because of COPD intraoperatively and at the time of operation it was decided to leave the chest open. The patient was transferred to the CRSU with the chest open. The chest tube was clotted off postoperatively on postoperative day number one and stopped draining. The patient was becoming increasingly difficult to ventilate. The decision was made to re-explore and evacuate a hematoma at the bedside on postoperative day number one for which the procedure was carried out and the patient stabilized. He was continued on CVVH by the Renal service. The patient was continued on the .................... stable state for the next several days without any event. He was on CVVH on milrinone, epinephrine, Levophed, and was being paralyzed and sedated for the next several days. TPN was started on postoperative day number three. On postoperative day number five, we began to try some trophic feeds; however, the patient did not tolerate trophic feeds. On [2148-2-9], the patient's cardiac index appeared to be deteriorating and the decision was made to re-explore the chest again at the bedside. The procedure was carried out; 1/2 liters of fluid was evacuated from the right pleural space and some clots were evacuated from the chest tube. However, since that day on the patient's condition began to deteriorate rapidly and overnight the patient began to require several amps of bicarbonate still having a pH of 7.21 on ABG. Throughout the night of [2148-2-9], the patient continued to require bicarb. He went into A fib and was cardioverted and went back into A fib again. Eventually, on the morning of [2148-2-10], at approximately 6:30 a.m., the patient went into asystole. Cardioversion was carried out and several amps of bicarbonate and several amps of calcium were given. The epinephrine drip was turned up. Milrinone was turned up to maximum. Pitressin was turned up to maximum, however, to no avail. The patient expired on the morning of [2148-2-10] at approximately 6:30 a.m. DISCHARGE PROCEDURE: Status post coronary artery bypass graft, MVR and revision. DISCHARGE DIAGNOSIS: 1. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 2. Mitral valve disease. 3. Hypertension. 4. Pulmonary hypertension. 5. Coronary artery disease. 6. Status post myocardial infarction. 7. Gastroesophageal reflux disease. 8. Cataract. 9. Bladder cyst. Dictated By:[Dictator Info ] MEDQUIST36 D: [2148-2-10] 09:16 T: [2148-2-10] 10:44 JOB#: [Job Number 49401]	[ "4240", "42731", "0389" ]
Admission Date: [2190-2-3] Discharge Date: [2190-2-10] Date of Birth: [2140-10-11] Sex: M Service: Medical Intensive Care Unit, [Location (un) ] Team CHIEF COMPLAINT: Shortness of breath. HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a 49 year old male initially admitted to the Medicine Service on [2-3] with shortness of breath and spontaneous pneumothorax after several cycles of Bleomycin for testicular seminoma who was transferred to the Medical Intensive Care Unit on [2190-2-5] for hypoxia. Briefly, the patient was initially diagnosed with seminoma in [2189-7-20], status post orchiectomy for testicular mass. Patchular vascular invasion with preoperative Beta HCG 9 that remained elevated postoperatively. Computerized tomography scan showed metastatic evidence to chest, neck and abdomen with both the retroperitoneal and subclavicular lymphadenopathy. The patient was treated with Bleomycin 180 units, Etoposide and Cisplatin in [2189-10-19] to [2189-12-20]. This was complicated by pneumonia on [11-22] and no normalization of LDH, acid fast bacillus and Beta GG was admitted to [Location (un) ] outside hospital on [1-10] to [1-15] with shortness of breath. Chest computerized tomography scan showed no pulmonary embolism but did show bronchiectasis and interstitial fibrosis. Pulmonary function tests showed decrease in his DLCO per the chart. It was thought that he had drug toxicity. Amiodarone was stopped and Prednisone 60 mg p.o. q. day was started. The patient was readmitted to the outside hospital on [1-27] through [1-29] with spontaneous pneumothorax and managed expectantly. He was seen on [2-1], felt okay and could walk [11-22] mile. On [2-2], after increasing shortness of breath after coughing he went to the outside hospital. He had shaking chills, nasal congestion, increased clear sputum and central chest congestion with occasional wheezing. He had a son at home with similar symptoms. No orthopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, or edema. The patient had a 74% room air saturation and increased subcutaneous emphysema. So, a left chest tube was placed with hemi valve. The patient was transferred to [Hospital6 2018] on [2-3] where he had a respiratory rate of 27, saturations 83% on 3 liters to 91%, on 6 liters with an arterial blood gases of 754, 32 and 68, and was admitted to the Medicine Service. The patient was started initially on intravenous Bactrim empirically for primary care physician given he was on Prednisone 60 as an outpatient and Prednisone was increased to 80 mg p.o. q. day. Cultures including viral cultures were sent that were negative to date. Chest computerized tomography scan showed pulmonary fibrosis and moderate left pneumothorax with pneumomediastinum emphysema, soft tissue enlarged pulmonary artery. Cardiothoracic Surgery was consulted and recommended an existing chest tube placement of 20 cm of water suction. Echocardiogram was performed and broad-spectrum antibiotics with Bactrim, Azithromycin and Ceftriaxone were started empirically. The patient was with deteriorating oxygen saturation, so the patient was transferred to the Intensive Care Unit. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: 1. Cardiomyopathy in [2182], viral, also per chart from outside hospital in [2189-10-19] had an ejection fraction of 55%. No mitral regurgitation, trace tricuspid regurgitation. PA pressure is 25 to 30. 2. Testicular cancer in [2189-7-20], radical orchiectomy, pure seminoma with vascular invasion. 3. Atrial fibrillation treated on Amiodarone discontinued [2189-12-20], secondary to question of pulmonary fibrosis. 4. Depression. 5. History of mild renal insufficiency, baseline creatinine of 2.5. ALLERGIES: Codeine. MEDICATIONS AT HOME: Atenolol 25 mg p.o. q. day, Lipitor 20 mg p.o. q. day, Humibid LA one tablet p.o. q.h.s., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q. day, Magnesium oxide 400 mg p.o. t.i.d., Calcium carbonate 500 mg p.o. t.i.d., Guaifenesin and Codeine 5 to 10 cc p.o. prn cough, Protonix 40 mg p.o. q. day, Haldol 2 mg t.i.d. prn agitation, Bactrim 450 mg intravenously q. 8, Prednisone 80 mg p.o. q. day, Tessalon pearls 100 mg p.o. t.i.d., Morphine 5 to 10 mg q. 6 hours prn sublingual, subcutaneous heparin 5000 mg p.o. q. 8 hours, Ceftriaxone 1 gm q. 24, Azithromycin 500 mg intravenously q. 24.

Cardiovascular, regular rate and rhythm, no murmurs, rubs or gallops. Lungs, positive rales and wheezes, right greater than left. Abdomen, positive bowel sounds, soft, nontender, nondistended, no masses. Extremities, warm bilaterally. LABORATORY DATA: Pertinent laboratory data revealed white blood cell count 20.9, hematocrit 41.3, platelets 192, white cell count differential is 97% polys, 2% lymphs, 2% monos. INR 1.1, PTT 19.6, creatinine 1.5, potassium 4.3, LDH 362. Nasal swab viral cultures, pending. Chest x-ray [2-5], increasing left apical pneumothorax with 20% volume loss, left lower lobe atelectasis, left pigtail catheter in place, bilateral diffuse interstitial opacities, blunting of the right costophrenic angle. Chest computerized tomography scan [2-4], small left pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema and intramuscular emphysema, extensive pulmonary fibrosis, left greater than right, right predominantly lower lobe. Pulmonary artery prominence with no consolidations. [2190-2-5], echocardiogram, ejection fraction greater than 55%, no patent foramen ovale, by Bubble study, mild right atrial enlargement. Electrocardiogram, sinus rhythm with a rate of 112, axis -36, T wave inversions in 3 and 6, biphasic Ts and AVF. HOSPITAL COURSE: 1. Hypoxia - The patient presented with diffuse infiltrates concerning for pulmonary fibrosis and Bleomycin lung toxicity. The patient had been on Amiodarone which has also contributed and the patient also had a spontaneous pneumothorax on chest x-ray which was managed with chest tube placement as per Cardiothoracic Surgery. The patient was maintained on antibiotic treatments for his pneumonia, given his sick contacts, also atypical presentation, given his previous immunosuppression and therefore the patient was continued on Prednisone. So, the patient was titrated oxygen. Subsequently, however, the patient had worsening hypoxia and on [2-6], after extensive discussion with the patient and his wife, the patient was subsequently intubated given his worsening respiratory status. The patient continued to be intubated with worsening hypoxemia throughout the hospital course and on [2-10], an extensive discussion was made with the family and given the patient's inability to wean off of his FIO2 and with worsening hypoxia it was agreed upon that the patient should have comfort care as an ultimate goal for his hospitalization, and on [2-10], the patient was subsequently placed on Comfort-Measures-Only. The patient's family was informed. Subsequently the patient also had some hypotension which was covered with pressors and on [2190-2-10], at 10:26 PM, the patient had worsening hypoxia and after withdrawal of care, the patient was found to be unresponsive to deep sternal rub, no heartsounds were palpable. The patient was warm. The pupils were fixed and dilated, and subsequently the patient was declared dead on [2190-2-10] at 10:26 PM. Autopsy was declined per family. 2. History of atrial fibrillation - The patient was maintained on Amiodarone and Atenolol for rate control. 3. Cardiomyopathy - The patient was maintained on Lasix. 4. Seminoma - The patient was status post three cycles of Bleomycin, Etoposide and Cisplatin. There were no acute issues to be followed up with Oncology. 5. Renal - The patient's creatinine continued to rise, likely due to hypotension. The patient's medications were renally dosed.

Due to suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. Left ventricular systolic function is hyperdynamic (EF>75%). The right ventricular cavity is markedly dilated with severe global free wall hypokinesis. There is a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion. There are no echocardiographic signs of tamponade. ECHO ([2162-5-18]): The left ventricular cavity is small. Left ventricular systolic function is hyperdynamic (EF>75%). The right ventricular cavity is dilated with depressed free wall contractility. The interatrial septum is markedly thickened around the fossa ovale secondary to lipomatous hypertrophy. Compared with the findings of the prior study (images reviewed) of [2162-5-17], the interatrial septum and right atrium are better visualized, and the mass in the right atrium is now seen clearly to be secondary to lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum.

PLAIN FILMS LEFT HIP AND FEMUR ([2162-6-1]): There is severe degenerative change of the lower lumbar spine. There are mild degenerative changes of the hip joints. No fracture is identified. Incidental note is made of a sclerotic lesion in the distal femur of unclear etiology. Does the patient have a history of primary malignancy or metastatic disease? MRI LEFT LEG ([2162-6-2]): (wet read): Preliminary Report !! WET READ !! 18.7 cm hematoma in left vastus lateralis muscle. While this may reflect trauma and anticoagulation, an underlying neoplasm cannot be excluded and follow-up upon resolution (ie 4 months) is recommended. Bilateral femoral head avascular necrosis.

FECES POSITIVE FOR C. DIFFICILE TOXIN BY EIA. -Blood and urine cultures: NEGATIVE on [4-13], [5-21], [5-22], [5-25], [5-28] Brief Hospital Course: A 67 yo man with history of NSCLC s/p resection, EtOH, h/o DVTs on coumadin until one month PTA, recent GIB, now transferred from OSH with respiratory distress and multiple bilateral pulmonary emboli. # Bilateral pulmonary emboli: He presented having a prior history of DVT, having previously been on coumadin. At the time of admission, he was in respiratory distress with evidence of right-heart strain on echo. Given lower extremity clot burden, IVC filter was placed. On [5-17], TPA was administered for suspected right atrial clot (later found to be lipomatous hypertrophy of interatrial septum). He was started on LMWH, awaiting EGD/colonoscopy before initiation of coumadin. He will continue on anticoagulation (now on heparin) until his colonoscopy/EGD. As long as there is no active bleeding, he can be switched to coumadin for long-term anticoagulation. # Alcohol withdrawal: He has a significant alcohol history. He was intubated during much of the period of anticipated withdrawal. After extubation, he was transferred to the floors (hospital day 10). Although he was tachycardic, he was not diaphoretic or agitated and his tachycardia was felt to be due to PE as above, rather than alcohol withdrawal. He did not require benzodiazepines or CIWA scale monitoring. # Ventilator associated pneumonia: He began spiking fevers on [5-19] with sputum growing GNR and staph (found to be pansensitive Citrobacter freundii, sparse Aeromonas and sparse coag+ staph). The ventilator associated pneumonia was treated with vancomycin and Zosyn for eight days; course was completed on [5-28]. # Clostridium dificile colitis: This was found on stool studies from [5-18]. He was treated with oral vancomycin during the VAP antibiotic course, and he should continue oral vancomycin to finish on [6-7]. # Recent GIB: Anticoagulation had been stopped one month PTA for GIB. Per patient his INR was supratherapeutic at that time. He was restarted on anticoagulation during this admission for DVT and PE. Plan is to continue heparin for three weeks to allow time for his pulmonary emboli to dissolve and his clinical status to stabilize, at which time EGD and colonoscopy can be done. Of note, he was found to be guiaic positive during this admission, with brown stools (non-melanotic, non-bloody). His hematocrit stablized in the mid to high 20s. Also, of note, he underwent abdominal ultrasound to evaluate extent of liver disease, also to evaluate for portal hypertension and assess risk for varices. The ultrasound showed no ascites, a diffusely fatter liver, and mild splenomegaly. # Anemia: This is a macrocytic anemia with stabilization of hematocrit in the mid to high 20s. Hemolytic work-up was negative. Reticulocyte count was 3.0. Iron was 19 with a TIBC of 166 and ferritin of 232, indicative of deficiency. Folate and vitamin B-12 were normal. As above, he was guiaic positive. His anemia is likely a combination of marrow suppression from acute illness and iron deficiency from recent GIB and poor nutrition. We have recommended for outpatient colonoscopy and EGD for further work-up. This is scheduled at [Hospital1 18]. He received one unit of PRBCs on [6-3]. # Nose bleed: This occurred in the setting of anticoagulation with Lovenox. Bleeding resolved after treatment with Afrin (several squirts) and holding pressure for 20 minutes. Due to persistent oozing from the left nostril, ENT was consulted. They recommended for preventative management with aggressive blood pressure control, saline nasal spray, bactroban vaseline ointment, and humidified air. If bleeding recurs, several sprays of Afrin can be delivered to the bleeding nostril, with pressure held for at least 15 minutes and patient leaning forward. # Hypoalbuminemia: Albumin was 1.9 on [5-18], down from 2.2 at admission; repeat albumin on [6-2] was 2.7. Tbili was 0.4 with PTT 27.1 and INR 1.0. As above, abdominal ultrasound did not show signs of cirrhosis; the liver was diffusely fatty. We added ensure supplement to his diet. Albumin can be followed up as outpatient. # Thrombocystosis: His platelet count was trending up to low 800s at time of discharge. We felt that this was likely secondary to infection and acute inflammatory response. Platelet levels can be followed up as outpatient after his infection has been treated. # Left leg pain and hematoma: He worked with physical therapy and complained of leg pain over the lateral aspect of his left thigh. On exam there was tenderness over the left lateral quadriceps muscle, with small amount of swelling/induration on left compared to right; there was no clear hematoma or skin discoloration. There was concern of extension of DVT versus fracture, given that he said he had fallen on his left leg prior to admission. Lower extremity doppler ultrasound showed stable DVT in left popliteal [Month/Year (2) 5703]. Plain films of the left hip and femur showed sclerotic lesion in the distal femur so MRI was done for further evaluation. This showed an 18 cm hematoma in the left lateralis muscle. The femoral sclerotic lesion was felt to be atypical for metastases, but radiology has recommended follow-up imaging in four months. In addition, vascular was curbsided and felt that the hematoma could be followed clinically. We have switched anticoagulation to heparin drip to allow for ease of stopping anticoagulation if the hematoma grows in size. Meanwhile, we have outlined the area of induration with marker (measuring 22cm in length and 8cm in width on our exam) and recommended that patient have follow-up imaging with ultrasound in 2 to 3 days to assess for interval change. Daily CBC monitoring as well will be important to assess for progression. # FEN: He was progressed to normal diet, with ground solids and nectar prethickend liquids. # Prophylaxis: Anticoagulated as above. # Code status: Full code. # Disposition: To rehabilitation facility.

A chest x-ray, AP portable, revealed questionable focal infiltrate. The EKG at admission was bradycardiac in the 40s, normal axis, biphasic T waves in V2, otherwise unchanged. HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was with critical AS, hypertension, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, presenting with substernal chest pain. The patient was admitted to the [Hospital Unit Name 196] Service for further evaluation and management. The patient was admitted to the [Hospital Unit Name 196] service and the cardiac enzymes were cycled and were negative. The [Hospital 228] hospital course has been complicated, while awaiting cardiac catheterization to evaluate valve for possible coronary artery disease, by an episode of rapid atrial fibrillation and hypotension. During the same time, the patient also developed a fever and an elevated white count and it was felt that this episode was due to urosepsis. Given persistent supraventricular tachycardia and hypotension, the patient was transferred to the CCU. The patient was started on IV Amiodarone and broad spectrum antibiotic therapy. The patient's heart rate was improved and the patient converted back to sinus rhythm. She was transitioned to p.o. Amiodarone and transferred back to the floor during this admission. Her urinary cultures subsequently grew out E. coli and her antibiotics were adjusted. The patient did convert back into atrial fibrillation and did have some pauses noted on telemetry. Electrophysiology service was recommended. Discontinue Amiodarone. They will determine the need for a pacemaker in the long run once the patient resolves her current medical issues. Furthermore, it was determined not to perform cardiac catheterization during admission. DISCHARGE DIAGNOSIS: 1. Critical aortic stenosis. 2. Urosepsis. 3. Tachy-brady syndrome. 4. Atrial fibrillation. DISCHARGE STATUS: The patient will be discharged to rehabilitation. DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS: Please refer to page one.

Admission Date: [2161-12-30] Discharge Date: [2162-4-25] Date of Birth: [2161-12-30] Sex: F Service: Neonatology HISTORY: This is a 28 and [1-6] week twin female #2, delivered preterm by C-section due to progressive preterm labor. She was found to be severely growth restricted with a birth weight of 700 grams. Mother was a 31-year-old G-I, P-0, now II, blood type O positive, antibody negative, hepatitis B negative, rubella immune, RPR nonreactive, and GBS unknown. Rupture of membranes was at delivery and this was an IVF di/di twin gestation with discordant growth. Mother was admitted at 24 weeks with cervical shortening and funneling and found to be 5-6 cm dilated and was brought to section. This baby emerged with spontaneous cry, requiring only routine care in the operating room with no supplemental oxygen needed. Apgars were 8 and 9, and she was transferred to the NICU for management of her prematurity. In the NICU, she was initially intubated, given Surfactant, umbilical lines were placed. She was shortly thereafter extubated to CPAP and then had a prolonged stay in the NICU which was as follows. HOSPITAL COURSE: By systems: From a respiratory perspective, [Known lastname ] was initially intubated and given 1 dose of Surfactant and was quickly extubated to CPAP on which she remained until day of life 28 when she went to nasal cannula and then she moved to room air on day of life 41 and has been in room air ever since. She had some apnea of prematurity and was on caffeine until day of life 43 after which her apnea of bradycardia resolved. She remains in room air without desaturation or respiratory symptoms to this day. Cardiovascular: From a cardiology perspective, she has had intermittent murmur throughout her hospitalization. On [1-6], she had an echo with a large PDA and PFO for which she received indomethacin and subsequently she had a follow-up echo on [1-11], which showed no PDA. As I mentioned, she has had an intermittent murmur throughout her hospitalization which is not heard on exam today. Fluid, electrolytes and nutrition: Initially, the baby was n.p.o. and was started on TPN and lipids. She slowly worked up on feeds and subsequently was found to be aspirating when she learned to orally feed. She had 3 swallowing studies in a row which showed aspiration with swallowing so a G-tube was placed by interventional radiology on [4-16], or day of life 107. She is receiving G-tube feeding only now and is continuing to follow with feeding team. GI: From a GI perspective, [Known lastname ] had some mild hyperbilirubinemia for which she received phototherapy. Her peak bilirubin was 4.1 on day of life 1 and her hyperbilirubinemia resolved quickly. She has a G-tube that was placed on [4-16], and she had some preoperative labs done on the day of her G-tube placement on [4-16], with a bilirubin of 0.1, alkaline phosphatase of 488, ALT of 26, AST of 30, and she has chronic reflux for which she is on Prilosec 2.4 mg p.g. daily. She is also on Reglan 0.35 mg p.g. 3 times daily. She has nothing by mouth and working with feeding team. Hematology: From a hematologic perspective, she is on iron. Her last hematocrit was 32.7 on [4-16]. She is on 4 mg/kg/day of iron. She has not received a transfusion. She had coagulation studies done on the day of her surgery [4-16]. PT was 13.1, INR 1.1 and PTT 38.4. Infectious disease: From an infectious disease perspective, [Known lastname ] initially received ampicillin and gentamicin for 48 hours when she was born. Her cultures did not grow any organisms and the antibiotics were stopped. Subsequently, only this week with the G-tube placement when she developed a cellulitis and some widening erythema as well as a bandemia, on [4-17], with the white blood cell count of 8.6, and 28 bands, 1 metamyelocyte and 1 myelocyte, she was started on vancomycin and gentamicin. A blood culture and a wound culture from her G-tube site were sent. The wound culture is growing is staph aureus as well as staph epi and her blood culture is no growth to date. She was started on vancomycin and gentamicin. She is completing a 7 day course. The erythema is resolving and the infant is stable. Neurology: From a neurologic perspective, [Known lastname ] had 3 head ultrasounds which were all normal, one on [1-7], one on [1-28], and one on [4-1]. She seems to have some mild hypertonicity and is fussy at times but her exam is otherwise normal. It is recommended that she follow up with neonatal neurology at infant follow up clinic. Ophthalmology: From an ophthalmologic perspective, [Known lastname ] developed some mild retinopathy of prematurity. Her most recent ophthalmologic exam was on [3-22], where she was mature bilaterally and was to follow up in 9 months. She never had laser surgery. Endocrinology: From an endocrinology perspective, [Known lastname ] was found to have late onset hypothyroidism when her newborn screens persisted to be abnormal. She was started on Synthroid on [3-5] and her TFTs have normalized. Her most recent set were on [4-16], with a TSH of 4.1, T4 of 10.8 and a free T4 of 1.4. After speaking with the endocrinology fellow today, they recommend that she follow up with [First Name4 (NamePattern1) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) ] 1 month after discharge at [Telephone/Fax (1) 37116]. She does not need to have her thyroid studies checked between now and 1 month after discharge. She had a thyroid ultrasound that was normal. Orthopedics: From an orthopedic surgery perspective, [Known lastname ] had some subluxation of her right hip on ultrasound on [3-10]. She had a follow-up hip ultrasound on [4-15], which was normal and orthopedic surgery fellow is to examine her 1 more time prior to discharge on [4-22], or [4-23] and subsequently she is to follow up in 1 month in orthopedic surgery clinic, [Telephone/Fax (1) 38453]. Feeding: From a feeding perspective, initially it was thought that [Known lastname ] had a bit of an oral eversion. Subsequently she seemed to have aspiration and she had multiple swallowing studies, all of which showed aspiration, most recently on [4-8], when she continued to have aspiration. At that point, the decision was made to put in a G-tube which was done at interventional radiology. CONDITION ON DISCHARGE: Stable. DISCHARGE DISPOSITION: Home. PRIMARY PEDIATRICIAN: Dr. [First Name8 (NamePattern2) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 17562], [Telephone/Fax (1) 42639]. DISCHARGE PLANNING: 1. Her State screens were normal with the exception of the thyroid abnormality which is being treated. 2. Her vaccination status, she received her initial hepatitis B vaccine on [1-29]. Her subsequent 2 month vaccinations were given on [3-2], which included Pediarix, Prevnar and Hib. 3. She has not yet had her hearing test. That test result is __________. 4. [Hospital1 69] social work was involved with the family. The social worker name is [Name (NI) ] [Name (NI) ] and she can be reached at [Telephone/Fax (1) ]. CARE RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Feeds at discharge include breast milk as well as fortification with NeoSure to achieve 24 calories per ounce. Recommend 150 cc per kilogram per day given every 4 hours over an hour and a half through her G-tube. She needs to receive [2-1] mL of water before and after each feed through the G-tube and care of the G-tube will be dictated by the interventional radiology team which placed the tube. 2. Medications at discharge include Prilosec 2.4 mg daily, Reglan 0.35 mg daily, and Synthroid 25 mcg daily. She will continue her iron and multivitamin as well. Iron supplementation is recommended for preterm and low birth weight infants until 12 months of corrected age and all infants predominantly fed breast milk should receive vitamin D supplementation at 200 international units which may be provided as a multivitamin preparation daily until 12 months corrected age. 3. Her car seat should be in the back, facing the back, strapped in. 4. We recommend routine immunizations in addition: Synagis RSV prophylaxis should be considered from [Month (only) ] through [Month (only) 958] for infants who meet any of the following 4 criteria: 1. Born at less than 32 weeks, 2. Born between 32 and 35 weeks with 2 of the following: Daycare during RSV season, a smoker in the household, neuromuscular disease, airway abnormalities or school age siblings, 3. Chronic lung disease or 4. Hemodynamically significant congenital heart disease. Influenza immunization is recommended annually in the fall for all infants once they reach 6 months of age. Before this age and for the first 24 months of the child's life, immunization against influenza is recommended for household contacts and out of home caregivers. This infant has not received Rotavirus vaccine. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends initial vaccination of preterm infants at or following discharge from the hospital if they are clinically stable and at least 6 weeks but fewer than 12 weeks of age. 5. Follow up appointments scheduled are endocrinology 1 month after discharge, orthopedic surgery 1 month after discharge, pediatrician with Dr. [First Name8 (NamePattern2) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 17562] within the first week after discharge, feeding team within 3 weeks after discharge, and interventional radiology as directed. She also has been referred to early intervention and she will need ophthalmologic follow up in 9 months.

Admission Date: [2155-1-9] Discharge Date: [2155-1-17] Date of Birth: [2155-1-9] Sex: M HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a 33 week male, Twin #2, with intrauterine growth retardation who was born to a 43 year old Gravida 4, Para 0 to 2 mother with the following prenatal screens - Blood type 0 positive, antibody negative, Rubella immune. The pregnancy was notable for - 1. In [Last Name (un) 5153] fertilization, donor egg; 2. Di-di twins; 3. Discordant growth with Twin A being significantly larger than Twin B; 4. Normal AFP and no amniocentesis done. The mother was admitted on the day prior to delivery due to preterm labor. She received two doses of betamethasone due to persistence of variables in Twin B with decelerations. The mother went to factors and rupture of membranes was at delivery. GBS status is unknown. In the Delivery Room this twin emerged crying and active. He required some Blow-by oxygen in the Delivery Room and received intermittent positive pressure ventilation due to decreased air entry. Apgars were 8 at one minute and 9 at five minutes. He was transported back to the Newborn Intensive Care Unit for further care. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: Physical examination on admission revealed he had a weight of 1385 gm, length 39.5 cm and head circumference of 28 cm, all parameters between the 10th and 25th percentile. Heartrate was 160 and respiratory rate was 48 with a 100% oxygen saturation on room air. He is a well appearing infant, slightly ruddy. His head, eyes, ears, nose and throat examination showed his anterior fontanelle was open and flat. He had a normal palate, normal facies. Cardiovascular, he has normal S1 and S2 and no murmurs, well perfused. Lung examination showed breathsounds clear, bilaterally with no retractions. His abdomen was soft, nontender, nondistended with no hepatosplenomegaly and no masses. His extremities were warm and well perfused. Neurological examination showed tone appropriate for gestational age. Genitourinary examination showed testes that were palpable in the canal. His anus is patent. Spine is intact and hips are stable.

He is not on any caffeine. 3. Fluids, electrolytes and nutrition - The patient is initially made NPO with total fluid of 80 cc/kg/day. Feeds were started on day of life #1. He reached full feeds by day of life #6. On day of life #6 he had two episodes of hypoglycemia with blood sugars as low as 34. Intravenous fluids were continued due to this at 20 cc/kg/day on top of his feeds. In addition, Polycose was added to the formula to increase his glucose intake. His glucose normalized over the course of the following 24 hours and intravenous fluids were discontinued. He is currently on total fluids of 150 cc/kg/day, PE 2 2 cal/oz of which are Polycose. He is also receiving iron supplementation, all of his feeds are p.g. 4. Gastrointestinal - The patient was started on phototherapy on day of life 3 with a maximum bilirubin of 7.3. He continues on phototherapy now. 5. Heme - His complete blood count on admission showed a white count of 5.4, hematocrit 61.2 and platelet count of 151. He has had 53 neutrophils and 0 bands. He has had no heme issues during his stay. 6. Infectious disease - The patient was started on Ampicillin and gentamicin due to his prematurity and preterm labor. His blood cultures remained negative throughout his stay and the antibiotics were discontinued after 48 hours. 7. Neurology - He has had no neurologic issues during his stay. 8. Sensory - Hearing screen has not yet been performed. CONDITION AT DISCHARGE: The patient can be transferred to [Location (un) 745] [Location (un) 3678]. CONDITION ON DISCHARGE: Good.

Several intubations for respiratory failure 2. [2116-6-5] laparoscopic reduction of hiatal hernia, repair of diaphragmatic defect with pledgeted sutures, pexy of stomach to diaphragm, and laparoscopic liver biopsy History of Present Illness: Ms. [Known firstname ] [Known lastname 85535] is a 52 year old female with a history of mental retardation and migraine headaches who is transfered from [Hospital 792]Hospital for further management of hepatitis. She originally presented to [Hospital ] Hospital on [2116-4-28] with an increase in the frequency of falls and confusion. Her sister and [Name2 (NI) 802] noted subtle changes in her behavior as far back as [2115-10-13] that became increasingly pronounced over the following months, viral hepatitis work-up was reportedly negative. At [Hospital ] Hospital, the patient had a prolonged and complicated course with extensive evaluation of her elevated LFTs. She was noted to have hyperammonemia and was treated with lactulose for hepatic encephalopathy with some improvement in mental status. MRI abdomen was unremarkable. Ceruloplasmin, [Doctor First Name ], AMA, [Last Name (un) 15412] were all normal. Viral hepatitis serologies were negative as was CMV PCR. Alpha-1 antitrypsin was elevated at 385. She underwent a liver biopsy on [2116-4-5] that showed "ongoing severe liver injury with extensive hepatocyte damage and resulting collapse. She underwent endoscopy that demonstrated a 10 cm hiatal hernia and gastric volvulus with edema and erythema of the stomach and an erosion at the GE junction. Colonoscopy showed grade IV internal hemorrhoids and 2 colonic ulcerations that were ischemic in nature and a 2 mm polyp that was resected. She required antibiotics (vancomycin and zosyn) to treat HAP and aspiration PNA. Her LFTs remained abnormal with AST of 146 and ALT 103. AP peaked at 457. She was transferred, at the request of her family, to [Hospital1 18] on [2116-5-21] for further evaluation as they were still seeking a diagnosis for her illness. The patient was admitted to the Medicine service on [2116-5-21] to evaluate her liver disease. While on the medicine service, her hospital course was complicated by ongoing aspiration events felt to be a result of her large hiatal hernia and esophageal dysmotility. On [2116-5-28], she was intubated and transferred to the MICU for increasing dyspnea and acute respiratory failure. She was extubated soon after on [2116-5-29] and was treated for HAP/aspiration pneumonia, but antibiotics were stopped on [2116-6-1]. On [2116-6-5], the patient was transferred to the thoracic surgery service and underwent laparascopic hiatal hernia reduction with percutaneous liver biospy. Past Medical History: - mental retardation of unknown etiology (some work-up at [Hospital ] Hosp of [Location (un) 86] that was of unclear consequence) - history of migraine headaches that are associated with nausea and vomiting and can be debilitating. - hypercholesterolemia, was formerly on Lipitor. - history of self-mutilization characterized by picking at skin. - s/p right inner ear surgery x 2 with implant, [2112] and [2107] - ATN, AIN at [Hospital ] hospital [4-/2116] Recent medical history during this hospitalization: - Recurrent aspiration pneumonia ([5-28] - 18 intubated for ARDS) - hiatal hernia s/p repair - gastric volvulus s/p repair - Right upper extremity phlebitis/cellulitis associated with PICC - NASH with Grade III-IV fibrosis - ARDS and intubation post operatively [Date range (1) 85536]/10 - ATN, CVVH with oliguric renal failure (Cr peaked at 3.5) - Coagulase negative staphylococcal bacteremia ([6-16]) - Persistent Leukocytosis of unclear etiology - Elevated alpha 1 antitrypsin Social History: She lives with her sister [Name (NI) 17], her [Name (NI) 802], and a Burmese mountain dog. She used to work at a daycare program where she did manual labor but then was switched to a group that manages dementia patients as it was thought she might be developing dementia. She has had diminished ability to perform her ADLs over the past few months. She has never smoked, no alcohol, and no drug use.

Severe esophageal dysmotility and reflux. 2. Moderate hiatal hernia. LIVER BIOPSY, PATHOLOGY ([2116-5-26]): 1. Advanced fibrosis (stage 3-4) with extensive bridging, multifocal incomplete nodule formation (with a rare focus suggestive of complete nodule formation) and a prominent sinusoidal component. 2. Moderate lobular neutrophilic inflammation and mild portal mixed inflammation (score 2). 3. Foci of hepatocyte ballooning degeneration with associated intracytoplasmic hyalin (score 2). 4. Minimal steatosis (involving <5% of the core biopsy; score 0) 2D ECHO ([2116-6-1]): Mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction consistent with coronary artery disease. MRI ABDOMEN & PELVIS ([2116-6-3]): 1. No evidence of biliary obstruction. 2. Small amount of perihepatic ascites. 3. Significant dependent body wall edema indicative of "third-spacing". RENAL ULTRASOUND ([2116-6-6]): Essentially normal renal ultrasound. No evidence of hydronephrosis. DUPLEX DOPP ABD/PEL; LIVER OR GALLBLADDER US ([2116-6-9]): Major intrahepatic vasculature patent with normal direction of flow. Slightly coarsened and echogenic liver compatible with the history of autoimmune hepatitis. No intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation. CT CHEST/ABDOMEN/PELVIS ([2116-6-14]): 1. Improved aeration of lung parenchyma, with persistent predominantly basal consolidations and perihilar ground-glass opacities. 2. Small bilateral pleural effusions. 3. Diffuse body wall edema with mild abdominal and pelvic ascites without focal fluid collection. 4. Persistent geographic area of hypoattenuation involving the medial aspect of segment II and III of the liver of uncertain etiology. Edema or infarcts could be considered. When clinically appropriate, if the patient can have a contrast-enhanced CT or MR examination, depending patient factors, this appearance could be investigated further. Alternatively, a short-term follow-up with ultrasound might be able to provide some information and could provide a baseline for follow-up of the abnormality, if it is later visualized. Doppler features could also be reassessed in light of persistence of this abnormality. 5. Left PICC ends in the left brachiocephalic vein. 6. Thickening of the distal colon, involving the sigmoid and through the upper rectum, even allowing for underdistension. Differential considerations include colitis in the appropriate setting or sequelae of portal congestion. Since the upstream colon is mildly prominent, the fact that the distal is mild to moderately narrowed may be causing slight obstruction, although contrast passes entirely through the area. The whole segment was collapsed on the last examination, limiting assessment and comparison. Correlation with clinical factors is recommended. DUPLEX DOPP ABD/PEL PORT; LIVER OR GALLBLADDER US ([2116-6-16]): 1. Patent hepatic vasculature 2. No focal liver lesion and no biliary dilatation seen. 3. Minimal ascites. CT ABD/PELVIS ([2116-6-25]): 1. No evidence of abscess. Moderate amount of ascites, which has increased since the previous study. 2. Small bilateral pleural effusions, which have decreased in size since the previous study. Adjacent bibasilar atelectasis in addition to diffuse ground-glass and patchy opacities at the bases have improved. 3. Small areas of hypoenhancement within segment II and III of the liver with slight decrease in size of these segments likely reflects evolving infarct and subsequent scarring corresponding with the area of hypodensity noted on the previous noncontrast CT studies. 4. Possible bowel wall thickening of the cecum, new since the previous study. While this may be due to underdistended bowel, focal colitis cannot be excluded. Previously described thickening of the distal colon is not seen on today's study and may have been due to underdistension on the previous study. MR HEAD W/ & W/O CONTRAST ([2116-6-28]): Non-specific, nonenhancing focus of high signal on FLAIR and T2 weighted images in the left parietal lobe. The differential considerations are demyleination, vasculitis or sequlae of small vessel disease. MICROBIOLOGY: [5-27] HD catheter - Coag neg staph [6-26] HD catheter - Coag neg staph [6-28] Blood cultures - VRE Multiple sputum and urine cultures showing undifferentiated yeast. Brief Hospital Course: HOSPICE CARE: Ms. [Known lastname 85535] was initially admitted to the hospital from [State 792]after being diagnosed with hepatitis that was found to be end stage liver disease (cirrhosis) from NASH. Briefly, her hospitalization course was complicated by intubation for aspiration pneumonia with subsequent respiratory arrest. She also underwent a hiatal hernia repair to help decrease the risk of aspiration, she was in the ICU for transient shock liver and renal dysfunction. She also developed VRE sepsis and was finally extubated several prior to her transition to the floor. Unfortunately her course continued to deteriorate, she was noted to again be in respiratory distress likely a combination of aspiration from secretions and a hypervolemic state. She was also not tolerating oral, NG tube feeds. Following the onset of NGT feeding her abdomen would become distended, she would have a fever. After a discussion with health care proxy and family members the decision was made for her to be comfort measures only. All non-essential, non-comforting medications were discontinued. Pt was started on oral Morphine for pain, oral Ativan for anxiety, Scopolamine patch to minimize secretions from the Morphine. - please continue with 5-10mg PO Morpine every 4 hours as needed for comfort, this may need to be increased pending her discomfort - please continue with 1mg Ativan PO every 4 hours for anxiety - please continue with 3 Scopolamine patches to the neck to decrease secretions - please continue with Bisacodyl 10mg PR as needed if the pt does not have a bowel movement for several days and seems uncomfortable from constipation - please continue with Acetaminophen PR as needed for any fevers PRIOR TO TRANSFER TO THORACIC SURGERY SERVICE/MICU: # Elevated liver enzymes: liver biopsy pathology slides were obtained from [Hospital ] Hospital and reviewed by [Hospital1 18] pathology. Full findings are above. Pathology was consistent with stage 3-4 fibrosis thought to be secondary to NASH. # Dysphagia, hoarse voice: barium study evaluation revealed a large hiatal hernia, and OSH upper endoscopy showed possible gastric volvulus. Patient was continued on PPI [Hospital1 ] and thoracic surgery was consulted. # Respiratory distress, aspiration pneumonia: a respiratory code was called when patient became increasingly dyspneic and hypoxic to 85% on the non-rebreather on [5-28]. Patient was then transferred to the MICU and started on HAP coverage with vancomycin and Zosyn. She was extubated on [5-29]. Bronchoscopy specimens only grew yeast. # Coag negative staph bacteremia: On [5-29] bottle grew GPCs which turned out to be coag negative staph. Surveilance cultures were negative, and this was felt to be likely a contaminant. Patient was initially covered with vancomycin, but this was stopped on [6-2]. # Candiduria: Patient grew [Female First Name (un) ] from urine, as well as bronch specimen. Patient received fluconazole IV x 3 days, and foley catheter was changed. # Nutrition: After above mentioned aspiration event, patient was made NPO. Initial speech and swallow found esophageal dismotility on barium swallow, without coughing and patient was placed on diet of thin liquids and pureed solids. # Cellulitis: she presented to the hospital from [Hospital ] Hospital with a right arm cellulitis at the site of her previous PICC. We completed her 7-day course of antibiotics. There were no further issues. FROM TRANSFER TO THORACIC SURGERY SERVICE/SICU ([2116-6-5]): KEY EVENTS: [6-6]: Hepatology rec likely volume down, supportive care. Renal recs likely ATN from hypotension. Renal US no source. TPN. Vanco inc 1gm q48. [6-7]: Placement of R subclavian CVL, started levo for sbp support, adequate UO, one dose of lasix 20 mg IV in am, improved liver function, rising creatinine [6-9]: continues with minimal UOP. Started albumin 25g TID and lasix drip with improvement in UOP, low dose levophed started to increase renal perfusion. Fever, sent u/a, ucx, blood cx, cxr. Ordered for RUQ ultrasound with doppler. [6-10] started CVVH, CT torso, placed HD line, bedside ECHO [6-11] CVVH at bedside, Cr / BUN / weight trending down, INR stable at 1.5. started vanco, [Last Name (un) 2830], fluc. [6-12] continues on CVVH. Now on PSV 10/10 with plan to extubate [6-13] [6-13] off CVVH since am, minimal urine production, improving past midnight, no vasopressors, febrile to 103.2 -> Blcx, UClx, sputum, on cpap. Sputum gram stain no organisms. [6-14]: Paracentesis done, 1.5 L of transudative fluid removed. RIGHT SC removed and new triple lumen placed in LEFT subclavian. CT torso without obvious etiology of fevers. Increasing stools overnight, c. diff sent. [6-15]: had HD performed at bedside with 1.5 L removed. SBT with 5/0 settings. Patient did well for ~45 minutes, then became tachypnic with desaturation. NO extubation. Became febrile to 104 and received ice packs and fan. [6-16]: HD was cancelled [1-14] fever, HD planned for [6-17], may not need renal recs albumin and lasix in interim; we gave lasix 40 mg once with adequate response, hepatology - f/u LFTs, no acute events, afebrile > 24 hours, d/c'ed RIJ HD line. Patient extubated. [6-17]: Vancomycin started for coag neg staph on RIGHT IJ HD catheter. UOP improving, lasix PRN. Overall, pt clinically improving. [6-18]: Urine output continues to improve. Received lasix with good output, however, afternoon lytes with hypernatremia (147). Evening lasix held. [6-19]: we D/Ced Fluconazole given completion of course for yeast cultures. She was cleared for thin liquids and pureed foods with swallow eval. [6-22]: repeat swallow study was performed demonstrating poor interest in intake, no aspiration or mechanical issue with deglutition. [6-23]: last dose of Vancomycin was given in the AM. Blood cultures were drawn x 2. FROM TRANSFER TO MICU ON [6-26]: # Respiratory failure: Pt was transferred to the MICU on [6-26] for hypoxic respiratory failure and was intubated. Multiple sputum cultures and a mini-BAL were negative except for undifferentiated yeast. Her respiratory failure was multifactorial, with contributions from her deconditioning after a long hospital stay, increased intraabdominal pressure from ileus and ascites, a component of ARDS during her immediate post-op period, and significant fluid overload from aggressive rehydration. She was initially >14L positive on arrival to the MICU. With aggressive diuresis with lasix and metolazone her respiratory status improved tremendously and she was extubated to face mask on [7-11] and transferred to the floor on [7-15] on nasal cannula. # Fevers and persistent leukocytosis: Patient had multiple infectious workups including repeat negative blood/sputum/urine/catheter tip cultures, negative CT chest/abdomen/pelvis, negative CT neck, cardiac echo negative for vegetations. She did have one positive blood culture for VRE early in her MICU stay. She received a long course of multiple broad-spectrum antibiotics, including vancomycin, meropenem, daptomycin, linezolid, flagyl and micafungin. It was noted that her fevers appeared related temporally to tube feeds and her fevers seemed to resolve when she was transitioned to tpn. # Renal failure: Patient's creatinine was 1.2 upon admission to the MICU and improved without intervention. # Constipation/ileus/abdominal distension: Patient had difficulty with high residuals and persistent fevers seemingly associated with tube feeds. She had intermittent increased abdominal distension which was evaluated on multiple abdominal KUBs, ultrasounds, CT scans which did not show acute abdominal processes. Diagnostic paracenteses x2 did not demonstrate SBP and ascites did not increase drastically during her MICU stay. Thought likely due to ileus and the distension improved with tpn (tube feeds held,) and erythromycin. Initially lactulose was effective but this was also held as it was given per NGT and was poorly absorbed. # AMS: Presumably hepatic encephalopathy was the cause of altered MS that led to pt's initial presentation to OSH in mid [Month (only) 116], when pt was found to have elevated LFTs for the first time. Apparently pt able to communicate with her sister at baseline, but level/sophistication of this communication unclear. [Name2 (NI) ] had repeat negative head CTs and an MRI negative for acute abnormalities. Her mental status improved only slightly after extubation; however she never fully regained the ability to communicate at her reported baseline. # Anemia: First established at OSH, where EGD/[Last Name (un) ] negative. Fe studies consistent with anemia of chronic disease. Did decrease once during her MICU stay requiring 1U PRBC but remained stable throughout the rest of her stay in the low/mid 20s. Had one episode of blood in ETT but no overt signs of significant hemorrhage. # Liver fibrosis/NASH: Transaminitis relatively stable during MICU course, [Name (NI) 3539] actually improved while in the MICU. Paracentesis on [6-14] and [6-30] negative for SBP. She was continued on ursodiol and rifaximin for hepatic encephalopathy. She was initially receiving lactulose, but this was discontinued due to high residuals in her tube feeds and concern for worsening abdominal distension. # Coagulopathy: INR generally 1.5-1.8 with peak 2.1. Platelet counts normal. Patient most likely had Vit K deficiency from chronic antibiotics, NPO status, and malabsorption/ileus. There was no need for reversal of anticoagulation during her MICU stay.

She was recently admitted at [Hospital1 69] from [1-5] to [1-21] when she had a coronary artery bypass graft done for three vessel disease with normal EF. Her postoperative course was complicated by respiratory failure requiring a tracheostomy, atrial fibrillation, renal failure, requiring hemodialysis and an embolic cerebrovascular accident diagnosed on the CT of the head as a right MCA inferior division stroke. The patient had a G tube placed and was discharged to [Hospital3 7665] [Hospital3 417] and as an outpatient she had been treated for an Enterobacter line infection with Vancomycin and Cefepime. Cultures seemed to have been negative. On the 29th the patient had fevers and hypotension. She was transferred from [Hospital3 417] to [Hospital3 ]. A right femoral line was placed and cultures were done. The patient had ID consulted and they recommended discontinuing the dialysis line as they suspected that was the source of her sepsis and elevated white blood cell count. The patient was started on neo-synephrine for her hypotension and transferred to [Hospital1 69]. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: 1. Type 1 diabetes mellitus. 2. Hypertension. 3. Hypercholesterolemia. 4.

Soft tissue mass in the right lower lobe (series 3 image 23) that is increased when compared to [2121-11-12]. 3. Tissue density within both hila and adjacent to the carina that have an appearance suggestive of lymphadenopathy that has worsened compared to the previous examination. 4. Unchanged destruction and soft tissue density involving 2 left-sided lateral ribs. 5. Slightly increased size of a left-sided pleural effusion with unchanged right-sided effusion/pleural thickening. The thick-walled air-filled cavity within the right lung apex has decreased in size compared to [2121-11-12], within both lungs suggestive of hydrostatic edema. 6. Several low attenuation lesions within the liver that are suspicious for metastatic disease. CT BONE BX SUPERFICIAL [2122-1-2] 2:07 PM IMPRESSION: 1. Successful 15-gauge core biopsy of a soft tissue mass within a left-sided rib, as discussed above. 2. Stable pleural effusions and diffuse lung disease within the partially imaged chest, as previously described on multiple recent chest CT exams. 3. Multiple low-attenuation masses within the partially imaged liver. Although this CT-guided biopsy procedure did not include an exhaustive evaluation of the liver parenchyma, these lesions are highly suspicious for metastatic disease. They do not appear significantly changed from the most recent chest CT exam, but they cannot be identified on the contrast-enhanced chest CT exam of [2121-9-4]. Clinical correlation and comparison with any previous outside exams is recommended. SPECIMEN SUBMITTED: RIB FNA BX DIAGNOSIS: Rib, FNA biopsy: Metastatic squamous cell carcinoma consistent with lung origin. Brief Hospital Course: This is a 65 year old female with a complicated thoracic history who was admitted with mental status changes and nausea several days after being discharged status-post an Eloesser flap closure of a right chest empyema. Cultures on admission were notable for Klebsiella in her urine and Klebsiella and MRSA in her sputum. Blood cultures were all negative while subsequent sputum cultures and culture of drainage fluid from her Right chest revealed continued Klebsiella and MRSA; a subseqenet urine culture after admission was negative. She was started on Zosyn and Vancomycin treatment. Her CT scan of her head was unremarkable. She had a creatinine of 2.7 on her admission which was not remarkable from her prior admission earlier in the month, and she had a dylantin level of 7.9. She was also noted to be hypoxia on admission with desaturation to 80% on maximum nasal canula flow; this improved when she was placed on a non-rebreather face mask. Her mental status improved with improvement in her respiratory status. She underwent a bronchoscopy on [2121-11-11] which demonstrated malacia and secretions in her right lower and right middle lobe. On [2121-11-18] she underwent exploratory right thoracotomy. This demonstrated an anterior compartment in the apex of her right pleural space that was well-healed and granulating, but a posterior compartment with moderate amount of debris not draining through a pigtail catheter. A Malecot catheter as well as [Initials (NamePattern4) ] [Last Name (NamePattern4) 406] drain were placed in the posterior compartment after decortication of tissue. She received irrigation of the posterior compartment through the [Doctor Last Name 406] drain for several days post-operatively, with drainage coming out of the Malecot drain; the [Doctor Last Name 406] drain was eventually removed and irrigation was continued intermittantly through the Malecot drain. Post-operatively the patient had good pain control. She did not pass her initial post-operative swallow studies, however she eventually demonstrated tolerance of thin liquids post-operatively and she was started on a regular diet. Her discharge plan was to continue with IV antibiotic coverage for Klebsiella and MRSA, coumadin for a right IJ clot diagnosed in early [10-30], intermittent irrigation of her apical right pleural compartment through her Malecot drain, and a regular diet in small meals. She will be discharged to rehab with planned follow-up with thoracic surgery. On [11-26], however, Pt had suddent onset of bleeding and hemoptysis with INR of 4.8. An anesthesia code called, pt intubated, given 3U PRBCs, 2U FFp, and factor VII given. Pt transferred to the CSRU. Bronchoscopy done on [11-27] with evidence of clot but no active bleeding in the LUL/LLL. Believed to be caused by erosion of the tube into the PA. Pt transferred to the SICU on [11-28]. Supportive care continued, with TF, mechanical ventilation, b-block for arrhythmia. Pt spiking fevers while in SICU, started on Vanc and Zosyn. Pt began to stabilize hemodynamically, however respiratory status continued to be unstable. Sputum cx after bronch on [12-3] and [12-4] positive for klebsiella pneumonia. Pt started on meropenem and continued on vanc. Pt began improving and after a successful spontaneous breathing trial pt extubated on [12-10]. A bedside swallow eval performed on [12-10], which the pt failed secondary to frequent coughing. Pt reintubated on [12-12] for increasing respiratory distress. A Bronch performed which showed mod mucous plugs and increased secretions. A specimen sent at that time was postivie for coag+ staph aureus. Pt then self-extubated on [12-14], but was able to tolerated extubation with aggressive pulmnary toilet. Pt with waxing and [Doctor Last Name 688] mentition at this time, attributed to ongoing pulmonary infections and medications. Pt then reintubated due to increased labored breathing on [12-19]. Bronch performed on [12-20] and [12-22] with bronchomalacia, however no stent placed at this time. A trach was placed on [12-24] due to hi-frequency pulmonary toilet and frequent intubations. Vanc and meropenem d/c'd on [12-25]. CT chest done on [1-1] with evidence of increasing mass lesion on two left lateral ribs. A biopsy was performed which showed metastatic disease.

The patient has been followed longitudinally in the brain tumor clinics for a recently-diagnosed skull base lesion. The patient had shown progressive neurological deterioration of her vision, and was, therefore, felt to be a candidate for surgical decompression albeit the degree of compression of the optic nerve from the diagnosed lesion remained unclear. The patient was extensively counseled. The patient was consented. The patient was taken electively to the operating room. Past Medical History: MENINGIOMA, HYSTERECTOMY [2101], GLAUCOMA, INSOMNIA, DEPRESSION ASTHMA Social History: non-contributory Family History: non-contributory Physical Exam: On Discharge: AOx3, with a left [Year (4 digits) ] field deficit, that is unchanged from pre-op. PERRL, EOMS intact. Face symmetric, tongue midline. No pronator drift. Strength is full throughout in upper and lower extremities. Incision is clean, dry, and intact, without erythema, or drainage. Pertinent Results: Labs on Admission: [2120-6-26] 01:12PM BLOOD WBC-11.8* RBC-4.04* Hgb-12.2 Hct-35.4* MCV-88 MCH-30.1 MCHC-34.3 RDW-13.7 Plt Ct-334 [2120-6-26] 01:12PM BLOOD PT-12.6 PTT-25.0 INR(PT)-1.1 [2120-6-26] 01:12PM BLOOD Glucose-179* UreaN-16 Creat-0.9 Na-137 K-3.8 Cl-102 HCO3-24 AnGap-15 [2120-6-26] 01:12PM BLOOD Calcium-8.3* Phos-2.3* Mg-2.2 IMAGING: MRI (Head)[2120-6-27](post-resection): FINDINGS: A comprehensive evaluation of the brain was not performed with this study, which was targeted for pre-operative planning. There is a homogeneously enhancing extra-axial lesion arising from the left paramedian planum sphenoidale, medial to the pre-chiasmatic segment of the left optic nerve, unchanged since the previous study. It measures 6 mm AP x 5 mm transverse x 3 mm craniocaudad. There is no evidence of optic nerve displacement, although high-resolution imaging of the suprasellar region was not performed. There is an ill-defined subcentimeter enhancing lesion in the left centrum semiovale, unchanged dating back to [2119-6-20] (series 5, image 19, and series 4, image 22). Based on its signal characteristics on previous complete head MRIs, it may represent a vascular malformation such as a capillary telangiectasia. IMPRESSION: 1. Small extra-axial mass arising from the left paramedian centrum semiovale is again demonstrated for pre-operative planning. It is most compatible with a meningioma. 2. Unchanged ill-defined contrast-enhancing lesion in the left centrum semiovale, most likely representing a vascular malformation such as a capillary telangiectasia. CT Head [2120-6-26]: FINDINGS: In the region of the sella is amorphous hyperdense material (70 [Doctor Last Name ]) in the expected location of the pituitary gland. The presence of hyperdense material in this region is concerning for pituitary hemorrhage. Additional possibilities include hemorrhage from adjacent vessels into this region or retained Surgicel or other surgical packing material. No other areas concerning for acute hemorrhage are present. Patient is status post left frontal craniotomy with a small volume right and moderate volume left frontal pneumocephalus and possible packing material along the left frontal convexity, causing mild degree of sulcal and gyral effacement. There is no shift of normally-midline structures. Ventricles and sulci appear unchanged in size or configuration compared to pre-operative MRI examination. There are no foci concerning for acute territorial ischemia. Surgical staples are noted along the left frontotemporal scalp with underlying subcutaneous emphysema in the soft tissues, not unexpected post-surgical finding. Osseous structures are otherwise intact. Paranasal sinuses and mastoid and ethmoid air cells are well aerated. IMPRESSION: 1. Hyperdensity in the sella in the region of the pituitary gland, concerning for pituitary hemorrhage. Alternative diagnoses include hemorrhage from adjacent vessels into this region or retained surgical packing material. No other findings concerning for acute hemorrhage are present. 2. Bifrontal pneumocephalus, left greater than right. Left frontal pneumocephalus causes mild sulcal and gyral effacement. There is no shift of midline structures and no herniation. 3. Left frontal craniectomy with overlying subcutaneous gas in the soft tissue. Brief Hospital Course: This patient was admitted to the neurosurgery service electively for a meningiom resection. She had no complications in the OR and went to the ICU post-operatively. The following day the patient had nausea and vomiting as well as a severe headache. Her pain medications were adjusted and she was given antiemetics. Her nausea resolved and her headache improved. The patient was then transferred to the neurosurgical floor on [6-27]. Her post-op MRI showed no infarction and the resection appeared to be complete. On [6-28] the patient had some drainage from the incision so there were staples added to the wound closure. The patient remained neurologically stable and physical therapy felt that she was safe to be discharged to home. She was discharged with her family on [2120-6-29].

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: On admission, temperature 98.4 F.; blood pressure 134/75; heart rate ranging between 91 to 126; respiratory rate 18; O2 saturation 92% on room air. The patient was a confused, cachectic, combative male. Pupils about 3 mm. There is a question of being unreactive. Unable to assess oral cavity. Neck is difficult to examination with a question of stiffness. Lungs clear to auscultation bilaterally. Heart: Regular rate, S1, S2, no murmur. Belly is soft, nontender, nondistended; positive bowel sounds. Has several old scars. Rectal examination is guaiac positive. Extremities have left fistula with thrill and bruit and has a right surgical incision oozing serosanguinous fluid and indurated. Neurologic examination was difficult as the patient was uncooperative, somnolent, but easily aroused, agitated, nonverbal, moving all four extremities. Strength intact; three plus reflexes throughout. No clonus. Toes were downward. LABORATORY: On admission, pertinent labs included white blood cell count 11.1, hematocrit 32.4, platelets 95, MCV of 103.

The patient had an EKG showing sinus tachycardia at 122; normal axis and intervals. Has left ventricular hypertrophy by voltage, one to two mm ST depression in V4 through V6 and II. No Qs. Chest x-ray was clear but has motion artifacts. MRI of the head on [3-25], showing chronic microvascular infarction; no acute infarction. CT scan of the head on [3-24], was negative for hemorrhage. His white matter change was consistent with microvascular angiopathy. The patient had an echocardiogram done on [3-27] showing there is a mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy and overall left ventricular systolic function is normal. Left ventricular ejection fraction greater than 55%. Mild aortic regurgitation and trivial mitral regurgitation. No evidence of endocarditis seen. HOSPITAL COURSE: 1. ALTERED MENTAL STATUS: Differential diagnosis including syncope, seizures, stroke, HSV encephalitis, alcohol withdrawal or illicit drug use. The patient improved back to his baseline after staying in the Intensive Care Unit for two days and then was transferred to the floor. Both CT scan and MRI of the head showing old infarction; no acute hemorrhage or infarction. Given his history of poly-substance abuse, this could be from the drug use, although the serum toxicology was negative. The lumbar puncture was negative for bacterial culture and viral culture and later returned also negative. The patient was originally started on Acyclovir due to suspicion of possible HSV infection, encephalitis and was discharged after viral culture returned to be negative. 2. RULE OUT MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION: The patient has [Street Address(2) 4793] depression V4 through V6 and II, but has three sets of stable CK and troponin. The echocardiogram showed normal left ventricular function with only one plus AR and trivial mitral regurgitation; otherwise unremarkable. 3. GUAIAC POSITIVE STOOL: The patient had a hematocrit drop slightly below 25 from a baseline of 28. Was transfused with one unit of packed red blood cells. We recommend outpatient endoscopy and colonoscopy. Given that the patient is a regular [Hospital6 ] patient, it would be more beneficial for him to go to the [Hospital6 ] system so the record will stay there. 4. END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE ON HEMODIALYSIS: He has received hemodialysis on Monday and Wednesday during his hospital stay. 5. THROMBOCYTOPENIA OF UNKNOWN CAUSE: This has been a chronic problem for the patient. At discharge, platelet level is 78. 6. ANEMIA: The patient has chronic anemia secondary to end-stage renal disease. Iron studies are consistent with anemia of chronic disease. Has normal folate and B12 levels. Will just continue monitoring and transfuse if less than 25. 7.

Because of the baseline artifact, it is difficult to identify atrial activity. The rhythm is regular at a rate of 98 beats per minute. Probably normal sinus rhythm. Complete left bundle-branch block. Possible prolonged A-V conduction. Compared to the previous tracing of [2159-8-8] no diagnostic interval change. CXR Portable ([10-12]): FINDINGS: There is a focal area of hazy opacity in the left lower lobe with loss of the left cardiac margin. This finding appears unchanged when compared to prior radiographs on NCT. There is prominent bronchopulmonary vascular markings with possible interstitial edema in the peripheral interlobular septa. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. The imaged osseous structures are intact. There is no free air below the right hemidiaphragm. IMPRESSION: Mild pulmonary vascular congestion and interstitial edema compatible with CHF. ECHO ([10-13]): The left atrium is mildly dilated. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The left ventricular cavity size is normal. There is mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with basal to mid inferolateral hypokinesis. [Intrinsic left ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of valvular regurgitation.] The right ventricular cavity is dilated with normal free wall contractility. The aortic root is mildly dilated at the sinus level. The ascending aorta is mildly dilated. The aortic valve leaflets are moderately thickened with mild to moderate aortic stenosis. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Moderate to severe (3+) mitral regurgitation is seen. Severe [4+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. Significant pulmonic regurgitation is seen. There is no pericardial effusion. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [2160-6-9], the left ventricular wall motion abnormality is new and there is now associated prominent mitral regurgitation that is likely ischemic (post-infarction). CXR ([10-14]): FINDINGS: PA and lateral views of the chest. Mild cardiomegaly, compared with [2157], the heart size has increased and the left atrium and left ventricle are more prominent. Previously seen mild interstitial pulmonary edema has decreased compared with [2161-10-12]. Aortic valve calcifications. No pleural effusion. No pneumothorax. No infiltration. The mediastinal and hilar contours are normal. IMPRESSION: 1. Decrease in pulmonary edema compared with [2161-10-12]. No infiltrate. 2. Mild cardiomegaly, compared with [2157], the heart size has increased and the left atrium and left ventricle are more prominent. Brief Hospital Course: ======================= BRIEF HOSPITAL SUMMARY ======================= Mr. [Known lastname 33681] is a 84 year old male with severe aortic stenosis, COPD, CAD s/p NSTEMI in [2158] p/w shortness of breath, most likely from COPD exacerbation. ======================= ACTIVE ISSUES ======================= # COPD excacerbation: Pt was treated with levalbuterol and ipratropium nebs, azithromycin x 5 days and prednisone 40mg daily x 5 days. He has 2 days remaining at time of discharge. Lung symptoms improved. He was still wheezing at discharge, but per patient and family, he was improved compared to his baseline. Pt was sent home on ambulatory O2 of 1L when ambulating. # Shortness of breath/acute on chronic systolic CHF: The patient's shortness of breath most likely due to COPD exacerbation. He also had a smaller component of pulmonary edema from acute on chronic systolic heart failure. He was initialy admitted to the MICU where the patient was intially started on diueresis with Lasix bolus of 40 mg IV, but was soon started on a Lasix drip with goal net negative output of 2 liter. He was also given prednisone 40mg daily and azithromycin along with levalbuterol and ipratropium nebs for COPD. The patient's O2 requirement improved with his diueresis and upon transfer to the floor, he was breathing comfortably on nasal cannula. While being diuresed, [Hospital1 ] lytes were checked and repleted. His rate control was also increased, as metoprolol was started at 25 mg q8, with target heart rate in the 80s to ensure adequate time for diastolic filling. This was then stopped as it seemed to exacerbate his underlying lung disease. # Severe aortic stenosis and diastolic dysfunction/CAD: Pt declines any invasive procedures or surgical interventions. Troponin were elevated, appropriate for his renal failure. MB was flat. His echo showed some inferolateral hypokinesis which likely reflects a prior MI within the last year ([2159] echo negative). Pt does not want any cardiac catheterization procedures. Continued on ASA 81. Pt declines to take his statin. Stopped his metoprolol on this admission since it seemed to exacerbate his COPD symptoms. # Lactic acidosis: Lactate initialy 4.0, improved to 1.0. Likely due to acute low perfusion state from acute on chronic systolic heart failure and severe aortic stenosis. Acute Renal Failure/ CKD: Baseline Cr 2.2-2.5. While in MICu, he was started n lasix drip for pulmonary congestion. His symptoms improved and lasix drip was stopped. While on drip, Cr increased, bicarb increased, K decreased, suggesting over-diuresis. Lasix was stoped and Cr stabalized at 3.0. He has renal follow up. # HTN: Stopped his home HCTZ on this admission since BP stable on current medications. Also stopped his metoprolol since seemed to exacerbate his COPD. Continued his amlodipine 10mg daily. Lasix was held and may be resumed when Cr improves to baseline. #Anemia: Pt found to have anemia that is likely combination of Fe def anemia and from CKD. [Name (NI) ] pt start ferrous sulfate [Hospital1 ] and will fu with nephrologist to discuss if he would benefit from Epo supplementation. Workup for iron deficiency can be considered outpatient, although pt and family do not want any invasive procedures. ========================== INACTIVE ISSUES ========================== 7. HLD: Atoravastatin discontinued during last admission. Appropriate considering age and comorbidity with risk/benefit. Pt does not wish take his statin. 8. BPH: Continued tamsulosin 0.4 mg po qhs ============================= TRANSITIONAL ISSUES ============================= 1. Fe Deficiency anemia: can discuss with pt whether or not to work this up. Started Ferrous Sulfate 2. Acute Renal Failure: [Hospital1 ] checking Cr on post-discharge visit to see if it trends down. Pt's ARF likely from over-diuresis. 3. MEDICATION CHANGES: STOP: Metoprolol, this is likely making your wheezing and lung COPD worse. STOP: Hydrochlorothiazide, your blood pressures do well without this medication. Your primary care doctor can consider restarting this medication outpatient. STOP: stop Lasix for now. You have no fluid in your lungs and you do not need this at this time. However, your primary care doctor may wish to resume this medication when your kidney function returns to normal.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. [Known lastname 33681], It was a pleasure taking care of you. You were admitted to the hospital for shortness of breath. We treated you for both an exacerbation of COPD and also for an acute on chronic episode of heart failure. While in the hospital, you had an echocardiogram. We diuresed you (removed fluid) and gave you nebulized breathing treatments and azithromycin; and your breathing improved significantly. You should weigh yourself every day, and call your doctor if you gain more than 2 pounds in one day. Your kidney function is a little worse then usual but is stable these last 2 days of your hospitalization. We anticipate that it will improve over the next few days now that you are no longer on the lasix medication. Please make sure to follow with your primary care doctor who will check your kidney function. We scheduled an appointment for you to see a kidney doctor in the next 2 weeks. You should continue taking all of your medications as you had prior to your hospitalization, except: STOP: Metoprolol, this is likely making your wheezing and lung COPD worse. STOP: Hydrochlorothiazide, your blood pressures do well without this medication. Your primary care doctor can consider restarting this medication outpatient. STOP: Lasix for now. You have no fluid in your lungs and you do not need this at this time. However, your primary care doctor may wish to resume this medication when your kidney function returns to normal. START: Iron supplentation: you have anemia from low iron and we recommend you take iron supplements START: Azithromycin- this is an antibiotic for your reason lung infection.

Imagings CXR ([2146-2-7]): Markedly limited study. There is suggestion of a dense consolidation of the left lower and mid lung zones. This may represent pneumonia. If clinically feasible, consider PA and lateral views in the radiology suite for better characterization. CT Head ([2146-2-7]): 1. Prominent ventricles, non-[Last Name (LF) 61910], [First Name3 (LF) ] represent normal pressure hydrocephalus in the appropriate clinical setting. Clinical correlation recommended. 2. No other acute intracranial process identified. TTE ([2146-2-9]): Mild symmetric LVH with normal regional and global biventricular systolic function. Moderate tricuspid regurgitation. Mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. CXR ([2146-2-10]): Worsening right upper lobe and left mid and lower lung opacities, consistent with worsening pneumonia. CXR ([2146-2-18]): As compared to the previous radiograph, there is minimal improvement of the pre-existing mainly perihilar and left lateral parenchymal opacities. The extent of the retrocardiac atelectasis, potentially combined with a small pleural effusion, is unchanged. On the right, the parenchymal opacities have apparently decreased in extent. No evidence of newly appeared parenchymal opacities. Unchanged size of the cardiac silhouette. Unchanged position of the endotracheal tube and the nasogastric tube. Brief Hospital Course: 67 year old male with coronary artery disease s/p PCI, atrial tachycardia s/p failed ablation, diabetes mellitus type II complicated by neuropathy leading to spinal cord atrophy who presented to the ED with lethargy x 4-5 days and was found to be hypoxic with presumed multifocal PNA and atrial fibrillation/tachycardia with RVR. # Hypotension, resolved: BP on arrival to ICU was 70/50 in the setting of likely multifocal pneumonia seen on CXR and volume depletion in the setting of poor oral intake. Bedside echo showing hyperdynamic ventricles and respiratory variation in IVC filling pressures on admission consitent with hypovolemia. He was aggressively fluid resuscitated by early goal directed protocol with MAP > 65. He was started on Levaquin for community acquired pneumonia and cefepime for Gram negative coverage in setting of chronic aspiration. He was ruled out for ACS with three sets of enzymes. Random and am cortisol showed appropriate adrenal function. His hypotension resolved with fluid resuscitation and never needed pressors. He was normotensive off medications. # Hypoxia, resolved: Persistent hypoxia to mid-80s on RA in the ED, likely [3-9] underlying multifocal PNA which is visualized on CXR. Hx of recurrent PNA suggestive of repeat aspiration events. Alternatively, patient with risk factors, peripheral neuropathy and multiple bacterial infections is also at risk of HIV which was sent. He was started on levaquin for CAP and cefepime for gram negative coverage in setting of chronic aspiration. Pt improved and was called out to the floor on [2-9]. On the floor he maintained his blood pressure and heart rate but required continued oxygen with saturations in the low to mid 90's on 3L NC. On [2-10], he triggered for mental status changes with orientation to self. He had significant rhonchi on exam at that time and respiratory was called; deep suction removed large amounts of mucous which were sent for culture. Later that evening, the patient was noted to have worsnening oxygen requirement with 93% oxygen on 5 liters and 97% on a nonrebreather. Deep suction was attempted but the patient had desaturation in this context. Received zydis 2.5 mg for agitation and paranoia. ABG 7.48/25/71. Transferred back to MICU for respiratory evaluation. On [2-11], he continued to require deep suctioning for large amount of secretions. He continued to get chest physical therapy with deep suctioning for large amount of secretions on [2-12] as well. On [2146-2-16], he was noted to have increased requirement in his venti mask from 50% to 100% with whiteout of left lung bases concerning for mucous plug. He was intubated for respiratory distress on [2146-2-17]. He was extubated on [2146-2-18] when goals of care were changed to comfort measures only (see below). Since then, he has been on minimal oxygen and morphine intermittently for comfort and maintaining O2 saturation in mid 90% on RA. # Leukocytosis: His WBC increased on [2-11] and continued to rise on [2-12]. He was started on vancomycin/flagyl while levaquin and cefepime were continued as he was clinically getting worse. IV Vancomycin/flagyl/levaquin and cefepime were discontinued on [2146-2-19] when he was made CMO # Delirium. Resolving. He was noted to be agitated and paranoid while being transferred back to the MICU. Likely secondary to hypoxia, improved with deep suctioning and respirator stabilization. His agitation has been managed by olanzepine rapid disintegrating tab. He has not had episodes of agitation since being on olanzepine. Upon discharge, he is oriented to person, place, and time. # Atrial fibrillation with RVR: on initial arrival to ICU, HR in 150-160s and irregular. Underlying process of pneumonia is likely the driving force for it. Patient was on anticoagulation alone with aspirin and plavix given history of multiple falls. He was started on amiodarone and over the next few days was weaned off metoprolol and digoxin. TTE was performed which showed LVH and no clots. Amiodarone IV changed to PO on [2-9], and then changed to home metoprolol. He remained stable in AFib without RVR. He was noted to have RVR on [2-11] and was restarted on amiodarone while metoprolol was discontinued. On [2-12], he continued to be in RVR with rates in 120s so metoprolol was added for rate control with amiodarone. However, because he was made CMO, his AFib medications were discontinued. His HR has been mostly < 100 per minute off of medications. # Truncal ataxia: per ED evaluation, patient persistently leaning towards left. CT head was negative. Per neurology, there was no acute process. # H/o CAD: He denied angina. EKG was without acute ST changes. Cardiac enzymes were negative x 3. Initially, he was continued on aspirin, Plavix, and metoprolol as mentioned above. However, after he was made CMO, these medications were held. # H/o ETOH abuse. There was no h/o withdrawal seizures. He did not have evidence of active withdrawal while in the hospital. # Type II DM: No evidence of DKA by labs. Patient was managed by insulin sliding scale. However, with CMO status, finger stick and insulin administration were held. # Malnutrition: Albumin of 2.1. Per speech and swallow, NPO with crushed meds in apple sauce with concern for chronic aspiration and will need to be reevaluted once off of face mask for oxygen. NG tube placed on [2146-2-9] and tube feeds started with nutritions help. Tube feeds held on [2-10] in the setting of desaturation and copious secretions, due to concern for aspiration. Restarted [2-11] as it seemed that secretions were mucous and not gastric contents. However, with CMO status, patient resumed regular diet per his preference and nutritional supplement was added. # Left buttock ulcer. 1 cm x 1 cm. Area does not appear to be infected. This should continue to be monitored with regular repositioning every 2 hours and daily wound care. # Comfort measures only: On [2146-2-19] after extensive discussion with his health care proxy, it was decided to make the patient comfort measures only and was extubated on [2146-2-19]. Antibiotics were discontinued. He was transitioned to narcotics as needed for shortness of breath and pain. He was discharged on oral morphine solution as his Foley catheter and PICC were removed on [2146-2-20] and [2146-2-21] respectively. He will be followed by hospice. It will be important to continue the discussion of Do Not Hospitalize with patient and his health care proxy.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. [Known lastname 6955], It was a pleasure to take care of you at [Hospital1 827]. You were admitted to the hospital for pneumonia and fast irregular heart rate. You were treated with antibiotics for the pneumonia as well as medications to help controlling your heart. Because of your worsening breathing, you were on a ventilator (a machine that help to breath for you) for a short period of time. After a discussion between your health care proxy and your intensive care team, it was decided that you would prefer to live with dignity and would prefer not to have invasive procedures done such as a PEG tube (feeding tube) or a tracheostomy (more permanent breathing tube). You did very well after they remove the ventilator and required minimal oxygen. The medical team discussed with you about hospice. You and your health care proxy both decided that you want to ultimately be home with hospice. Hospice nurse and social workers came and explored with you regarding your options and necessary support that you may need. While resources at home get set up, it is thought that you can go to inpatient hospice for a period of time.

There is hypokinesis of the mid to distal anteroseptal segments with borderline dyskinesis distally. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic stenosis. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. There is no pericardial effusion. There is an anterior space which most likely represents a prominent fat pad. IMPRESSION: Suboptimal study. Low normal left ventricular global systolic function with regional wall motion abnormalities as described above. Normal pulmonary artery systolic pressure. Compared with the prior study (TEE - images unavailable for review) of [2186-7-21], the left ventricular regional systolic dysfunction appears similar. Given the limited nature of the current study a comparison of all previously measured parameters could not be made. .

Overall the patient tolerated the procedure well and post-operatively was transferred to the CVICU in stable condition for recovery and invasive monitoring. POD 1 found the patient extubated, alert and oriented and breathing comfortably. The patient was neurologically intact. She was kept on Neo for hypotension and weaned from this by POD 2. She received 5 units of cells in the post-op period and she still remains anemic but is not significantly symptomatic. Post-op echo was unremarkable. While at rehab she will need her Hct monitored. She was started on isordil and later transitined to Imdur for prevention of LIMA spasm this will need to be continued for 3 months.Beta blocker was initiated and the patient was gently diuresed toward the preoperative weight. The patient was transferred to the telemetry floor for further recovery. Chest tubes and pacing wires were discontinued without complication. The patient was evaluated by the physical therapy service for assistance with strength and mobility. By the time of discharge on POD 4 the patient was ambulating wiht assistance, the wound was healing and pain was controlled with oral analgesics. The patient was discharged to [Hospital ] [Hospital 5028] rehab in good condition with appropriate follow up instructions.

His discharge weight is 3385gm. [Location (un) ] initially arrived and was made NPO at 80 cc/kg of D10/W. Following his barium enema the infant proceeded to ad lib enteral feeding of Enfamil 20 calorie or breastmilk 20 calorie. Gastrointestinal - Infant admitted to the Newborn Intensive Care Unit for abdominal distention. Went to [Hospital3 18242] for a contrast enema which revealed a meconium plug, also noted left side of colon slightly small. Infant had passed the meconium plug and has had no further issues with stooling or enteral feeding. Recommendation at this time is for a follow up sweat test for cystic fibrosis. The cystic fibrosis clinic at [Hospital3 1810], phone [Telephone/Fax (1) 36136]. Hematology - Complete blood count and blood culture were obtained on admission which revealed severe neutroeni with a white count of 4.9, hematocrit of 43.6, platelets of 170. He had 1 poly and 0 bands. In response to his low neutropenia, repeat complete blood count was performed later in the day revealing 5 polys. His complete blood count on [4-28] had a white count of 5,800, hematocrit of 43.4, platelets 170, 0 polys 0 bands, 74 lymphs. His most recent complete blood count on [5-2] is wbc 8,400 0P 0B 70L 27M 3E, Hct 46% plat 254,000. Hematology was consulted from [Hospital3 1810]. Dr. [First Name4 (NamePattern1) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 47796] is the attending hematologist and the Hematology Fellow's name is Dr. [First Name8 (NamePattern2) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 47797] who will be following [Location (un) ] outpatient. At this time the working diagnosis includes alloimmune neutropenia. Mother's bloodwork has been sent off to [State 3706] Southwest Bloodbank, telephone #1-[Telephone/Fax (1) 47798]87, and there are specifically looking for neutrophil antibodies. This bloodwork was sent on [2148-5-1]. Secondary differentials include Kostmanns syndrome or infection. Mother has been taking no medications that produce neutropenia. The recommended plan at this time is to repeat a complete blood count with differential on [5-7] and inform Dr. [First Name8 (NamePattern2) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 47797] of the information. At that time they can determine if the infant should have a bone marrow aspiration or further testing. Infectious disease - In light of the neutropenia, the infant was started on ampicillin and gentamicin which were discontinued on day of life #5 as there was no positive blood culture and no clinical sepsis risk factors. A lumbar puncture was performed which revealed a white blood cell count of 5, a red blood cell count of 1, protein of 85 and glucose of 32. Mother and father were both instructed of the increased need for diligence around the infant with infection control issues. Sensory - Audiology, automated auditory brain stem responses were performed and the infant passed both ears. Psychosocial - A [Hospital6 256] social worker has been involved with this family.

Mr. [Known lastname ] states that he was in his USOH this morning. He came home around noon and felt tired so he took a nap. When he woke around 1 or 1:30 he noticed that his entire left arm and hand were "numb". He was unable to feel the arm but denied paresthesias. He was also unable to move the arm at all. He was also unable to move the hand or fingers but felt that the leg was normal. He was unaware of any facial problems though his wife noticed that his left side face was droopy. He tried to drink water and the water spilled out of the left side of his mouth. His speech was also very hard to understand and "garbled". He was aware of what he wanted to say and was able to speak fluently but had difficulty articulating the words. His comprehension was normal. He went to [Hospital6 5016] where he was evaluated with screening labs with platelets of 255, a glucose of 188, nl LFT's, INR of 1 and a Cr of 1. His troponin was 0.04 and the CK was 76. His ECG showed SR and no ST changes. A head CT was done which was read as negative, however on review on the images here, I am concerned for a R parietal area of hypodensity. Clinically, Mr. [Known lastname ] states that his R arm improved over half an hour. He was gradually able to raise it above his head and the numbness improved. His facial weakness and speech also improved. He was given ASA 325 per report and transferred here for further care. Of note, Mr. [Known lastname ] states that he had had an episode of L hand numbness and weakness last week. He recalls that he was playing pool and dropped his pool stick. He went to pick it up and his L hand felt numb and weak. He was unable to move his fingers. He waited a few minutes and the symptom resolved. ROS: The pt denied headache, loss of vision, blurred vision, diplopia, lightheadedness, vertigo, tinnitus or hearing difficulty. Denied difficulties comprehending speech. Denied paraesthesia. No bowel or bladder incontinence or retention. Denied difficulty with gait. The pt denied recent fever or chills. No night sweats or recent weight loss or gain. Denied cough, shortness of breath.

Right MCA territory infarct, with abrupt cut off of the right MCA in the region of its bifurcation, with M1 segment not identified. M2 branches are seen, suggesting a nearly occlusive filling defect/embolus within the right M1 segment. Corresponding increased transit time is identified in the right MCA territory. 2. No acute hemorrhage. 3. Diminuative A1 vessels, with poor filling of the proximal A2 branches. Better filling is identified in the more distal A2 vessels, suggesting posterior pericallosal collateral filling. 4. Stenosis at the origin of the left vertebral artery, which arises from the aortic arch. MRI/A of HEAD: 1. Findings consistent with infarcts in the right MCA territory, with abrupt cutoff of the right MCA identified on MRA at the bifurcation. Findings on previously performed CTA suggest that there is collateral filling of more distal M2 branches, although those are not identified on this study. 2. A1 and A2 branches not identified on the current MRA, although findings on prior CTA suggest posterior pericallosal collateral filling of the distal A2 vessels. 3. No acute hemorrhage. ECHO: Severe regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVEF 30%) not consistent with ischemic cardiomyopathy. Severe diastolic dysfunction. Mild mitral regurgitation. No PFO/ASD identified. ANGIOGRAM: R MCA occlusion and both ACAs not visualized. Unable to stent ot intervene otherwise. Brief Hospital Course: The pt is a 46 year-old RH man with a PMH of DM and HTN, untreated. He developed left arm weakness and numbness as well as a facial droop with gradual improvement of his symtpoms. On arrival, in the ED, his BP ranged between 170-200's and he was in sinus tachycardia with a rate of 100's. His exam was notable for a L facial droop, mild dysarthria and slight L deltoid weakness (-5). He did not have any extinction or sensory loss and no drift. His leg was normal. His NIHSS was 2. He was taken urgently to CT/CTA and CTP which showed an evolving hypodensity on the R parietal lobe and an M1 cut off on CTA. His CTP showed a delay in MTT and a decrease in both CBV and CBF however with a mismatch, concerning for a residual penumbra. These results were reviewed with the O/C radiologist, as well as the stroke fellow who discussed the results with the Stroke attg. As his symptoms improved clinically with little deficit, he was not given IA tPA and admitted to the ICU with heparin drip. Patient was also found to have cardiomyopathy with LVEF of 30% - echo was most consistent with restrictive cardiomyopathy but not in coronary distribution hence cardiology consult recommended initial labs that were all normal except for elevated TSH. However, free T4 and T3 were within normal range hence this is expected in acute illness. Cardiology agreed with plan for repeat echo in 2 months. During the ICU stay, he continued to have mildly fluctuating mental status with transient worsening of left sided weakness. He was successfully transferred to the step-down unit where he was noticed to have significant but transient change in confusion, facial droop and weakness in the setting of receiving anti-hyperntensive [Doctor Last Name 360]. He had repeat scan which showed expansion of ischemia and he underwent repeat angiogram which showed R MCA occlusion without visualization of both ACAs but no intervention was possible. Given such finding, his episodes of confusion and worsening weakness most likely due to hypoperfusion of his ACAs in the setting lower blood pressure hence he was treated with goal SBP ~150 with IVF and bedrest. On [12-21], he was also started on low dose Midodrine, 2.5mg [Hospital1 ] for increased BP with parameters to prevent supine HTN. He remained stable and he began working with PT to ambulate assistance on [12-24] without adverse reaction. As for his R MCA occlusion and underperfusion of both ACAs, Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 81712] at [Hospital1 2025] was contact[Name (NI) ] for possible consideration of bypass surgery who felt that the surgery was viable and safe but unclear of its efficacy. Upon discussing with family of the surgery option, family decided that they would like to proceed with this and transfer was facilitated. Medications on Admission: None Discharge Medications: 1.

Discharge Disposition: Extended Care Discharge Diagnosis: R M1 MCA occlusion Hypertension Diabetes mellitus Discharge Condition: Stable but transiently increased confusion, worsening of L facial droop with weakness usually in the setting of lower blood pressure or standing. Discharge Instructions: You presented with L arm weakness and numbness as well as a facial droop with gradual improvement of your symtpoms. Upon arrival, your exam was notable for a L facial droop, mild dysarthria and slight L deltoid weakness (-5) and your NIHSS was 2. You were taken urgently to CT/CTA and CTP which showed an evolving hypodensity on the R parietal lobe and an M1 cut off on CTA but given that your symptoms improved clinically with little deficit, you did not get IA tPA and you were admitted to the ICU with heparin drip. You remained stable but with fluctuating exam including confusion, left facial droop with left sided weakness. After being transferred the neurology floor, you had an episode of prolonged confusion with definite L facial droop hence you had urgent imaging showing worsening of infarct and repeat angiogram showed R MCA occlusion plus non-visualization of both ACAs but due to the location and already completed infarct, no intervention was possible. You remained in the neurology floor with goal of SBP 150~180. Given the findings, Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] at [Hospital1 2025] was contact[Name (NI) ] for possible bypass surgery and upon reviewing the films plus history, Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] consented to transfer of the patient for possible consideration of the surgery given likely low risk although efficacy unclear. You continued to have fluctuating exam in the setting of decreased BP or standing position. To increase blood pressure in hopes of ensuring adquate cerebral perfusion, midodrine was started on [12-21] with parameters to prevent supine hypertension. You have also been started on Coumadin with heparin bridging and your INR has been therapeutic over 1 week by the time of your discharge.

No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. The left ventricular cavity is moderately dilated. Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF>55%). [Intrinsic left ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of valvular regurgitation.] Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. There are simple atheroma in the descending thoracic aorta. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is posterior mitral leaflet flail at the P2 scallop. An eccentric, anteriorly directed jet of Severe (4+) mitral regurgitation is seen. Due to the eccentric nature of the regurgitant jet, its severity may be significantly underestimated (Coanda effect). There is no pericardial effusion. Post-bypass: The patient is receiving no inotropic support post-CPB. An annuloplasty ring is well-seated in the mitral position and there is trace valvular regurgitation. There is a mean transmitral pressure gradient of 3 mm Hg at a cardiac output of 6.3 L/min. There is evidence of systolic anterior motion of the anterior mitral leaflet, but there is not evidence of outflow tract obstruction or pressure gradient. Biventricular systolic function is preserved. All other findings are consistent with pre-bypass findings. The aorta is intact post-decannulation. All findings were communicated to the surgeon.

Following surgery he was transferred to the CVICU for invasive monitoring in stable condition. Within 24 hours he was weaned from sedation, awoke neurologically intact and extubated. Chest tubes were removed per cardiac surgery protocol. He was transferred to the step down unit on post operative day 1 in stable condition. He was started on Neurontin with plans for increased titration as needed due to right medial thigh numbness and tingling (right groin cannulation.) He was able to ambulate and weight bear with this numbness. He continued to work with physical therapy to increase strength and endurance. He was tolerating a full po diet, ambulating well and his incision was healing well. His CXR revealed a question of a moderate right pleural effusion and he had an ultrasound which showed less than 300 cc of fluid and he did not undergo thoracentesis.

A day later, on the day of this admission, he felt as if his legs were "rubbery" and that he had difficulty ambulating even with his walker. He denies dyspnea, chest pain, lightheadedness, or worsening of his leg edema. He denies fevers, chills, coughs, abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipatin, dysuria. . On arrival to the ED, T 101.2, BP 117/50, HR 76, RR 22, 89%RA. His CEs were negative x 1. CXR revealed worsening R pleural effusion. He received 1 liter NS, ceftriaxone 2 grams, levofloxacin 750 mg. Due to his hypoxia, he required NRB and was admitted to the MICU for further management.

Misc [2188-6-23] 05:10AM BLOOD TSH-1.7 Brief Hospital Course: The patient was admitted with hypoxia and was intially sent to the ICU. He was diuresed, but also started on Vanc, Flagyl and Levofloxacin empirically. After diuresis, his oxygenation improved and he was transfered to the floor. He was continued on abx empirically but they were discontinued after 48hours of negative cultures. He was then switched back to Augmentin to complete a course for UTI started on last admssion. It is likely that he experienced a CHF exacerbation [2-23] to the IVF given on last admission and [2-23] to decreased lasix on discharge. His "weakness" was consistent with deconditioning and poor cardiopulmonary status on admission rather than focal leg weakness. On exam, strength was [5-26] in LE and his walked very well with PT. His ambulation improved with diuresis. TSH was normal. Diuresis was continued. His hypoxia continued to improve with 90-94% RA and on ambulation. He continued to refuse thoracentesis. He did have rare desturations at night to 87% and may benefit from O2 at night in the future. He also received 2 units pRBC's for HCT below baseline. He was discharged without shortness of breath or hypoxia on his orginal home dose of lasix 40mg daily. Medications on Admission: . Amiodarone 200 mg Tablet PO DAILY 2. Finasteride 5 mg PO DAILY 3.

Patient had been seen in [2185] and declined surgical intervention at that time. She was also admitted for CHF exacerbation 20 lbs over her baseline in [2189-5-13] and considered for valvuloplasty, however this was not done due to concerns regarding significant aortic regurgitation. She underwent a complete evaluation for TAVI during the stay including carotid ultrasound, presantine perfusion scan, dipyridamole stress, and CT of the chest/ abdomen/ and pelvis. Recently, the patient has been experiencing decline in her functional status due to worsening SOB and lightheadedness and is limited to walking to the bathroom. (Adapted from Aortic Valve Service History & Physical) At baseline, patient has a history of anxiety. NYHA Class: III Aortic valve replacement was uneventful and the LVEDP was measured at 33. The patient required 2 units of PRBCs. Upon arriving to the floor, patient became acutely dyspnic, gasping for breath with saturations in the mid 80s. Simultaneously, the patient had increased blood pressures measured at 200s/100s by arterial line. Initial ABG was drawn and demonstrated 7.29/52/72 (pH/pCO2/pO2). An urgent chest x-ray demonstrated acute pulmonary edema with no evidence of pneumothorax and was treated with 40mg lasix IV. Echo showed [12-14]+ AR/MR and mild paravalvular leak. Patient was given albuterol and ipratropium nebulizer treatments followed by 125mg methylprednisolone and patient was put on a non-rebreather mask. Patient was also given 0.5mg morphine sulfate, 0.5mg lorazepam. Repeat ABG demonstrated increasing academia and hypercarbia (7.20/73/108) and patient was transitioned to BiPAP 15/5. Repeat ABG after 30 minutes of BiPAP showed 7.40/ 40/97 and patient was weaned off the BiPAP. Past Medical History: 1. CARDIAC RISK FACTORS: - Hypertension - Hyperlipidemia 2.

DISCHARGE LABS: . PERTINENT STUDIES: TTE ([2189-7-7]): The left atrium is dilated. Overall left ventricular systolic function is mildly depressed with basal inferior and basal to mid lateral hypokinesis (LVEF= 50 %). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. An aortic CoreValve prosthesis is present. The transaortic gradient is normal for this prosthesis. Moderate (2+) aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Mild to moderate ([12-14]+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is a very small pericardial effusion. There are no echocardiographic signs of tamponade. . TTE ([2189-7-8]): The left atrium is moderately dilated. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size. There is mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with focal inferior and basal to mid inferolateral hypokinesis. The remaining segments contract normally (LVEF = 50 %). Tissue Doppler imaging suggests an increased left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP>18mmHg). Right ventricular chamber size is mildly dilated and free wall motion is normal. The diameters of aorta at the sinus, ascending and arch levels are normal. An aortic CoreValve prosthesis is present. The transaortic gradient is higher than expected for this type of prosthesis. Moderate (2+) aortic regurgitation is seen. The aortic regurgitation jet is eccentric. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Moderate (2+) mitral regurgitation is seen. Moderate [2+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [2189-7-7], the severity of tricuspid and mitral regurgitation have increased. The trans-Corevalve gradient is higher while the severity of aortic regurgitation is unchanged. Pericardial effusion is smaller. The right ventricle appears mildly dilated. . TTE ([2189-7-9]): Overall left ventricular systolic function is mildly depressed (LVEF= 45 %). There is considerable beat-to-beat variability of the left ventricular ejection fraction due to an irregular rhythm/premature beats. Right ventricular chamber size is normal. with borderline normal free wall function. An aortic CoreValve prosthesis is present. The transaortic gradient is higher than expected for this type of prosthesis. A paravalvular aortic valve leak is present. Mild to moderate ([12-14]+) aortic regurgitation is seen. The aortic regurgitation jet is eccentric. Moderate (2+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. There is a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion. . Cardiac Cath ([2189-7-9]): 1. Elevated LVEDP 2. Mild to moderate aortic insufficiency 3. No gradient across the Corevalve (no aortic stenosis) 4. Mild to moderate pulmonary hypertension (from diastolic dysfunction) Brief Hospital Course: PRIMARY REASON FOR ADMISSION: [Age over 90 ]-year-old caucasian female with CAD, NSTEMI [2189-5-6] pulmonary HTN, and known critical aortic stenosis (AoVA = 0.6cm2, EF 40%) s/p corevalve. Active Diagnoses: . # COREVALVE Patient's perioperative course was complicated by flash pulmonary edema after 2 units PRBCs in the cath lab. She was treated with diuresis and BiPAP, with succesful weaning onto nasal canula. 24 hours after placement, [7-8] Echo demonstrated high trans gradients and continued aortic regurgitation. The picture was complicated by decreased MAPs below 65 and urine output to 15-20 cc/h and creatinine increasing to 1.6. Patient was clinically stable throughout with no further episodes of dyspnea. Patient was started on Dopamine drip at 2mcg/kg/min with increase in UOP and MAPs above 65. On [7-9] reassessment in cath lab with PCWP was 20-22 mmHg and the PA systolic pressure was < 50 mmHg. The RA pressure was [9-23]. The LVED was 30 mmHg (due to diastolic dysfunction and unchanged from pre) and there was a minimal trans-aortic gradient. Patient began to clinically improve with activity around the CCU including walking. She was weaned of the dopamine gtt. Subsequent TTE showed continued AR, but the patient remained stable and was transferred to the floor and then rehab. # WENCHIBACH WITH PERSISTENT BRADYCARDIA Likely etiolgy is sick sinus syndrome. Patient was evaluated by EP team with decision made to not place a pace maker. # CAD Patient was continued on Aspirin 81 mg daily, Plavix 75mg daily and Crestor 20 mg daily. She was not on BB secondary to sinus bradycardia. # ASTHMA Pt was continued on Fluticasone-Salmeterol Diskus (250/50) and Montelukast 10 mg daily. # CHF Furosemide 20mg was started within 48 hours of CoreValve placement with Spironolactone 25. HCTZ 25 was discontinued. She was started on lisinopril 10mg/day during this admission. # GERIATRIC CARE: Pt was continued on home trazadone for sleep throughout her course. She intermittently required benzos for anxiety, which she tolerated well. #ANXIETY/ INSOMNIA We continued home escitalopram and trazadone. Trazodone was briefly discontinued due to prolongation of QT on one EKG, but was restarted with no incident.

TRACING #1 Intervals Axes Rate PR QRS QT/QTc P QRS T 63 0 162 454/459 0 -58 -66 PATHOLOGY: IMAGING: [2134-6-24] - Portable CXR: A pacemaker/ICD device has two ventricular leads and a single right atrial lead. The device projects over the right upper hemithorax. The heart is moderate-to-severely enlarged. The main pulmonary artery contour is prominent. The aortic arch is calcified. The diaphragmatic contour on the left is indistinct but the significance is difficult to judge given cardiomegaly. The lungs are difficult to assess in this area and it is also difficult to exclude a small left-sided pleural effusion. However, there is no evidence for pleural effusion on the right. Otherwise, aside from streaky lingular atelectasis, the visualized lungs appear clear. Mild rightward convex is curvature centered along the mid thoracic spine. Surgical clips project along the left axilla. IMPRESSION: Somewhat limited examination, but substantial cardiomegaly without definite evidence for acute disease. [2134-6-25] - Transthoracic Echo: Intravenous administration of echo contrast was used due to poor native endocardial border definition. LEFT ATRIUM: Mild LA enlargement. RIGHT ATRIUM/INTERATRIAL SEPTUM: Mildly dilated RA. A catheter or pacing wire is seen in the RA and extending into the RV. Dilated coronary sinus (diameter >15mm). LEFT VENTRICLE: Normal LV wall thickness and cavity size. Severe global LV hypokinesis. Relatively preserved apical LV contraction. Estimated cardiac index is depressed (<2.0L/min/m2). No LV mass/thrombus. TDI E/e' >15, suggesting PCWP>18mmHg. No resting LVOT gradient. RIGHT VENTRICLE: Normal RV chamber size. Focal basal hypokinesis of RV free wall. AORTA: Normal aortic diameter at the sinus level. Focal calcifications in aortic root. Normal ascending aorta diameter. AORTIC VALVE: Mildly thickened aortic valve leaflets (3). No AS. No AR. MITRAL VALVE: Normal mitral valve leaflets. Mild (1+) MR. TRICUSPID VALVE: Mild [1+] TR. Moderate PA systolic hypertension. PULMONIC VALVE/PULMONARY ARTERY: Normal pulmonic valve leaflet. No PS. Physiologic PR. PERICARDIUM: Very small pericardial effusion. GENERAL COMMENTS: Suboptimal image quality - poor apical views. Conclusions The left atrium is mildly dilated. The coronary sinus is dilated (diameter >15mm). Left ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity size are normal with severe global hypokinesis (LVEF = 25 %). Systolic function of apical segments is relatively preserved. The estimated cardiac index is depressed (<2.0L/min/m2). No masses or thrombi are seen in the left ventricle. Tissue Doppler imaging suggests an increased left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP>18mmHg). Right ventricular chamber size is normal. with focal basal free wall hypokinesis. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present.No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are structurally normal. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is a very small circumferential pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Normal left ventricular cavity size with severe global hyopokinesis suggestive of a non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. Depressed cardiac output/index. Pulmonary artery hypertension. Increased PCWP. Dilated coronary sinus (is there evidence for persistance of left SVC?). - LENIS RLE: Grayscale, color and Doppler images were obtained of the right common femoral, femoral and popliteal veins. Note is made that despite diligent effort the right calf veins could not be visualized. Normal flow, compression and augmentation is seen in all of the visualized veins. Superficial edema within the soft tissues is seen in the right calf. IMPRESSION: No evidence of deep vein thrombosis from the right common femoral through the right popliteal veins. Note is made that the right calf veins could not be visualized. - X ray, L spine and T spine: AP and lateral views of the thoracic and lumbar spine were reviewed. There is no evidence of fracture, lytic or sclerotic lesions demonstrated. There is lumbar dextroscoliosis. Otherwise, no appreciable findings seen. If clinically warranted, correlation with cross-sectional imaging dedicated to the area of pain demonstrated. [2134-6-28] - Thyroid U/S: There has been prior left thyroidectomy. The right thyroid lobe measures 1.6 x 2.5 x 4.4 cm. The thyroid isthmus measures 7 mm. Remaining thyroid parenchyma shows a homogeneous echotexture without evidence of focal nodules. In the anterior midline, extending slightly to the left of midline, adjacent to but appearing separate from the thyroid isthmus, is a lobulated, heterogeneously, predominantly hypoechoic mass which measures 3.3 x 1.2 x 2.4 cm. Internal vascularity is demonstrated with color Doppler imaging. This is new compared to the examination of [2133-5-21]. The appearance is suggestive of either an abnormal lymph node or other heterogeneous solitary mass. Survey views throughout the remainder of the neck show no evidence of additional lymphadenopathy. IMPRESSION: 3.3 cm heterogeneously hypoechoic mass, anterior midline of neck, appearing separate from the thyroid remnant. This may represent an abnormal lymph node or other solitary mass. If surgically appropriate, this is amenable to fine-needle aspiration. The results were discussed via telephone with Dr. [First Name4 (NamePattern1) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) ], at 10:45 a.m. on [2134-6-28] by Dr. [First Name (STitle) ]. In addition, results were discussed with [Doctor Last Name ] Baidal, Endocrinology fellow, in person at 10:45 a.m. on the same date. - Parathyroid scan with 21.1 mCi Tc-[Age over 90 ]m Sestamibi: Following the intravenous injection of tracer, images of the neck including anterior, pinhole and marker views were obtained at 20 minutes and 2 hours. Initial and delayed images show intense activity overlying the left side of the thyroid bed. SPECT/CT images show a soft tissue focus with intense activity overlying the left thyroid bed. This focus appears larger and more intense in comparison to the prior study from [2129-11-25]. It also appears to be about 2cm lower than the focus seen on the prior scan. The left thyroid lobe is absent. CT images of the lungs show bilateral pleural effusions and bilateral patchy areas of atelectasis of the right lower lobe as well as of the left upper and lower lobes. IMPRESSION: 1- Intense focal tracer uptake overlying the left thyroid bed consistent with a large left parathyroid adenoma, increased in size and intensity when compared to the prior study. 2- Bilateral pleural effusions and atelectasis of the right lower lobe and the left upper and lower lobes [2134-6-29] - CT neck with contrast: The patient is status post left hemithyroidectomy. The right thyroid lobe is grossly unremarkable, but better assessed on the preceding thyroid ultrasound. There is a high-attenuation mass in the strap muscles to the left of midline, separate from the right-sided isthmus remnant, which corresponds to the mass seen on the prior ultrasound. It measures 2.6 x 1.5 x 3.3 cm on the present study. Of note, this was thought to be consistent with a parathyroid tumor on the nuclear medicine parathyroid scan. There is a 1-cm lymph node between levels III and IV on the left (image 2:56), at the upper limit of normal size. No other enlarged cervical lymph nodes are seen. There is no evidence of an exophytic mucosal mass. The salivary glands appear unremarkable. There is calcified plaque in the aortic arch. There is calcified and noncalcified plaque at the origins of the internal carotid arteries, without evidence of hemodynamically significant stenoses. The distal cervical right internal carotid artery is medialized, indenting the posterior pharyngeal wall. There are ground-glass opacities at the imaged lung apices, better assessed on the concurrent torso CT. The right mastoid is under-pneumatized and sclerotic, suggesting prior infections. There are no lytic or sclerotic bone lesions suspicious for malignancy. There are degenerative changes in the cervical spine. IMPRESSION: 1. Mass in the strap muscles to the left of midline, corresponding to the lesion seen on the preceding ultrasound, separate from the residual thyroid isthmus. This was thought to represent a parathyroid tumor on the preceding nuclear medicine study. Its CT characteristics are nonspecific. 2. 10-mm lymph node between levels III and IV on the left, at the upper limit of normal size. 3. Ground glass opacities at the imaged lung apices, better assessed on the concurrent torso CT. - CT Torso with and without contrast: CT CHEST: There is a 1.5 x 2.5 cm enhancing mass superior and anterior to the residual right lobe of the thyroid gland compatible with known parathyroid adenoma. There is no supraclavicular, axillary, mediastinal or hilar lymphadenopathy. There are clips in the left axilla. The heart is markedly enlarged with predominantly right-sided involvement. There is a moderate pericardial effusion. The aorta is normal in caliber. The main pulmonary artery measures 3.7 mm and is dilated. Pacemaker leads are present. Small bilateral pleural effusions are noted. There is no definite focal consolidation or pneumothorax. Ground-glass opacity at the bases most likely represent atelectasis. The airways are patent to the subsegmental levels. There is no large central pulmonary embolus. CT ABDOMEN WITH AND WITHOUT CONTRAST: There is heterogeneous appearance to the liver with prominent hepatic veins, most consistent with hepatic congestion from fluid overload. There are no focal liver lesions and the portal vein is patent. There is no intra- or extra-hepatic biliary dilatation. The gallbladder, pancreas and spleen are unremarkable. The right adrenal gland is unremarkable. There is thickening of the anteromedial limb of the left adrenal gland, which may represent hyperplasia or adenoma and less likely malignant involvement. The kidneys enhance and excrete contrast symmetrically without any hydronephrosis. There is bilateral scarring. The stomach, small and intra-abdominal large bowel are unremarkable. A small amount of perihepatic ascites is present. The abdominal vasculature including the aorta and its major branches are patent. There are calcifications involving the iliac arteries. CT PELVIS: There is a small amount of free fluid within the pelvis. The bladder is collapsed and there is a Foley catheter. The rectum and sigmoid colon are unremarkable. There is no lymphadenopathy or free air within the abdomen or pelvis. OSSEOUS STRUCTURES AND SOFT TISSUES: There is no suspicious lytic or sclerotic lesion. The patient is status post laminectomy at L3 and L4. There is diffuse anasarca. IMPRESSION: 1. 2.8 cm enhancing mass anterior to the residual thyroid consistent with known parathyroid adenoma. 2. Findings consistent with fluid overload including cardiomegaly, moderate pericardial effusion, bilateral pleural effusions, hepatic congestion, small amount of free fluid in the abdomen and pelvis as well as anasarca. 3. Enlarged main pulmonary artery which is suggestive of pulmonary hypertension. 4. Thickened appearance to the medial and anterior limb of the left adrenal which may represent hyperplasia, or an adenoma and less likely malignant involvement. PROCEDURES/INTERVENTIONS: [2134-6-29] - Right basilic vein approach- double lumen PICC placement under IR guidance [2134-6-30] -CXR: FINDINGS: In comparison with the earlier study of this date, there has been placement of an OG tube that extends well into the distal stomach. Endotracheal tube tip is approximately 5.1 cm above the carina. The lung volumes are substantially improved. This may account for the apparent improvement in pulmonary vascularity, which now is essentially within radiographic limits of normal. CXR [7-1]: IMPRESSION: Interval removal of lines and tubes. Increased bibasilar opacities suggestive of atelectasis and/or consolidation. PARATHYROID SCAN Study Date of [2134-7-5] RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL DATA: 21.5 mCi Tc-[Age over 90 ]m Sestamibi ([2134-7-5]); INTERPRETATION: Following the intravenous injection of tracer, images of the neck including anterior, pinhole and marker views were obtained at 20 minutes and 2 hours. SPECT/CT images were obtained after the 20 minute images. Initial images show uptake in the right thyroid lobe. Delayed images show some washout from the right thyroid lobe. No foci of uptake consistent with parathyroid tissue are seen on either image. The patient is status post left thyroidectomy. A SPECT/CT was performed. Again, no foci of uptake consistent with parathyroid tissue are seen on either image. There are post-operative changes including small gas collections. There are small bilateral pleural effusions and bibasilar atelectasis. A right pacemaker is in place. Compared to the study of [2134-6-28], there has been a marked change. The intensely avid midline mass is surgically absent. There is no evidence of residual tissue related to that mass, and there is no other mass identified. IMPRESSION: No foci of uptake to suggest residual parathyroid tissue. Brief Hospital Course: 65 year old woman with past medical history of etoh abuse, primary hyperparathyroidism s/p left thyroidectomy and parathyroid adenoma resection in [2127], AF and sCHF p/w hypercalcemia, [Last Name (un) ], elevated troponin, ruled out for ACS with hypercalcemia of unclear etiology. Improved with IV fluids and lasix. Discharged to rehab in stable condition. MEDICINE FLOOR [0-0-] # Hypercalcemia/Primary hyperparathyroidism. she has a known baseline of hypercalcemia between [10-19]. She presented with significantly high Ca and elevated PTH > 1300. Her [Last Name (un) ] and sCHF complicated her treatment. She was treated with calcitonin, cinacalcet, brief course of hydrocortisone (100 mg q8h) as well as aggressive IVF balanced with lasix (for volume). She was placed on a low calcium diet. She subsequently underwent further imaging with thyroid ultrasound and parathyroid scan which showed a large left parathyroid adenoma. T spine and L spine did not show any fractures, lytic or sclerotic lesions. She subsequently underwent contrasted CT neck and torso to better characterize the tumor involvement. Her previous left thyroidectomy and parathyroid adenoma resection operative reports and surgical pathology from [Hospital3 ] were reviewed among her inpatient and outpatient endocrinologists, surgery, and radiology. The decision was made to pursue an exploratory surgery for resection of the neck tumor on [2134-6-30] rather than FNA alone, for concern of possible seeding if it were to be a malignant tumor and the ultimate goal of treatment. Patient was transferred to the [Hospital Ward Name 516] for surgery. Postoperatively, pt was monitored with daily serum PTH measurements and q6--8hr serum calcium checks. Pt was maintained on IVF and intermittent lasix dosing, to gently diurese and allow for slow calcium excretion. Calcium was downward trending and had dropped to 8.9 on discharge. Note: Patient's calcium took several days to normalize post-surgery, which was unusual as per Endocrinology. Her normocalcemia was most likely secondary to surgery but could be also due to the cinacalcet. A decision was made to stop her cinacalcet given her calcium normalization and to monitor her calcium daily at rehab. Her calcium values will be faxed to her Endocrinologist, Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ]. She also has follow-up scheduled with her endocrinologist. #Respiratory failure: After extubation from surgery, patient developed respiratory distress with O2 sat approaching 60% and hypotension with BP 80s/50s. She was subsequently re-intubated and started on dopamine drip. Pt previously had a PICC line, but was found to be not working well. A Central venous line was therefore placed. When she came to the MICU, dopamine was weaned off, and subsquently extubated the next morning. The etiology of hypoxemia was unclear. CXR did not show worsening pulmonary edema. Most likely diagnosis was post-op apnea from anesthesia. Hypotension was unlikely acute coronary syndrome with troponin downtrending since admission. Felt most likely related with hypoxia vascular constriction causing right heart strain, in the setting of severely impaired LVEF. This could have been exacerbated in the setting of intubation and initiation of propofol. . # Acute on chronic systolic CHF. Patient has history of cardiomyopathy with EF=30% in [2130]. Exam consistent with right-sided failure at admission (JVD, LE edema) and repeat echocardiogram showed non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and EF = 25%. She received large volume IVF for treatment of hypercalcemia with frequent dosing of Lasix. Her I/O were kept even. However, her lasix was held on the day of the CT neck/torso for renal protection given the contrast load, and the rate of the fluid was decreased slightly to avoid acute exacerbation. Her CT neck/torso revealed pericardial effusion, pleural effusion, and anasarca. However, her pulsus was 8 mmHg on [2134-6-30]. The patient was diuresed with IV Lasix. She was restarted on 40 mg PO Lasix and 6.25 mg PO carvedilol, but her blood pressure dropped to the 80's, likely secondary to aggressive diuresis. These medications were held on discharge, but can be restarted as needed. Her baseline SBP was ranging 80's-100's. # Elevated troponin: Patient had TropT = 0.13 at arrival. She did not have cardiac complaints. Her MB was negative. It is thought that elevated troponin was likely due to decreased clearance in setting of heart failure. # Acute renal failure on chronic kidney disease. Patient has a baseline creatinine of around 1.2. Her creatinine was up to 1.8 on admission. It improved while she was on treatment for hypercalcium, likely due to improved forward flow. Medications were dosed renally. Lasix was held on the day of her CT neck/torso given contrast dye being a nephrotoxin. Creatinine stable at 1.5 on discharge. # Altered mental status/Delirium. She presented with lethargy and some confusion. Carbamazpine was subtherapeutic on level. The confusion improved as hypercalcemia improved. However, she remained somewhat lethargic with decreased motivation while on the medicine floor. Her mental status improved in the ICU. # Macrocytic anemia. Noted on admission. Patient had normal B12 and folate. She was noted to have increased reticulocyte counts. CHRONIC ISSUES: # Atrial fibrillation on warfarin. She is ventricularly paced. She has not taken warfarin for about 1 month prior to admission. Her INR on admission was 1.1. She has a CHADs = 2. She was started on ASA instead. Patient was monitored on telemetry during hospital course. Pt was restarted on coumadin post-operatively and will need follow up. # Seizures. Patient reports history of seizures when she was drinking EtOH. Carbamazepine was initially held given underlying AMS, but it was restarted as her confusion was resolving. # Type 2 Diabetes. Her home medications were held. She was placed on insulin sliding scale. She is discharged on her home anti-diabetic agents except for metformin given her kidney disease and Cr 1.5 on discharge. # History of Breast Cancer, s/p left mastectomy. Raloxifene was held. # GERD: Stable. Continued pantoprazole. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: -daily Ca and PTH for 5 days after discharge -fax results to Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] in [Hospital1 *] -follow up with surgery as directed -Full code -Coumadin restarted -> continued INR monitoring as outpt -home carvedilol 6.25 mg PO BID and furosemide 40 mg PO daily were discontinued due to borderline blood pressure (SBP 80's-90's) after aggressive diuresis, may need to restart Medications on Admission: Preadmission medications listed are correct and complete.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. [Known lastname 5051]: It was a pleasure taking care of you at [Hospital1 18]. You were admitted because of concern for your heart and for high calcium levels in your blood. Tests determined that you have a condition called primary hyperparathyroidism. This was treated with fluids, lasix, and several other medications. The endocrine experts evaluated you and suggested further imaging which found a parathyroid adenoma. You had a surgery to remove the adenoma and your blood levels were checked daily. You will need to follow up with your endocrinologist Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] and with the general surgen who did your surgery.

Admission Date: [2183-12-31] Discharge Date: [2184-1-11] Service: ADMISSION DIAGNOSIS: Right colon cancer. HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 76-year-old woman with a history of diabetes mellitus, hypertension and elevated cholesterol who, on an evaluation as an outpatient, was found to be anemic and a colonoscopy revealed a right colon cancer in [2183-12-18]. The patient was then scheduled for elective right colectomy. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: As above. MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION: Procardia 60 mg p.o. q.d. Captopril 50 mg p.o. t.i.d. Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.d. Insulin 409 units of NPH q.a.m. PAST SURGICAL HISTORY: The patient had an open cholecystectomy in [2162]. ALLERGIES: The patient had an allergy to penicillin. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: Vital signs revealed a temperature of 98.8??????F, a heart rate of 100, a blood pressure of 136/59, respirations of 18 and an oxygen saturation of 100% on room air. In general, the patient was a pleasant, obese, elderly woman. On head, eyes, ears, nose and throat examination, the mucous membranes were moist. The neck had no lymphadenopathy. The heart had a regular rate and rhythm. The lungs were clear. The abdomen was soft. There was mild right sided tenderness and the abdomen was nondistended. LABORATORY: The patient had a white blood cell count of 13,100 with a hematocrit of 35.5 and a platelet count of 543,000. Potassium was 4.0. BUN was 12 and creatinine was 0.7. Glucose was 130. RADIOLOGY: A chest x-ray showed no evidence of infiltrate or metastatic disease. ELECTROCARDIOGRAM: An electrocardiogram had sinus rhythm at 100. HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was admitted for bowel prep and tolerated the bowel prep. On [2184-1-2], she underwent right colectomy without complications. Postoperatively on that night, the patient was stable. However, she required intravenous fluid bolus for low urine output. On postoperative day #1, the patient continued to require intravenous fluid boluses for urine output and developed a persistent tachycardia. After receiving intravenous fluid resuscitating without good response to intravenous fluid bolus, the patient became short of breath and was transferred to the Intensive Care Unit for further management. The patient was treated for congestive heart failure and was ruled in for a myocardial infarction with electrocardiogram changes and elevated levels of troponin. A cardiology consultation was requested and an echocardiogram was performed, which revealed a significantly decreased ejection fraction of approximately 15% with severe hypokinesis and akinesis of the inferior and lateral walls. The patient was started on beta blocker and ACE inhibitor for afterload reduction to optimize her hemodynamics. The patient was also started on aspirin. Once her hemodynamics were optimized and diuresis of fluid was initiated, the patient improved and, on postoperative day #4, she was transferred back to the hospital floor. The patient then soon passed flatus and was slowly advanced to a regular diet. She was continued on Lasix diuresis as well as beta blockade, afterload reduction and aspirin. The patient continued to do well with good response to diuresis and improved pulmonary function and was saturating well on room air and breathing comfortably. On postoperative day #9, the patient was tolerating a regular diet and was ambulatory with physical therapy. However, the patient required significant assistance, which indicated a rehabilitation transfer. On postoperative day #7, an ultrasound of the right upper extremity was performed, which showed a cephalic vein deep vein thrombosis, and the patient was started on Coumadin at that time for treatment of the deep vein thrombosis as well as for prophylaxis for the severe wall motion abnormality of the heart. DISCHARGE DIAGNOSIS: 1. Right colon cancer. 2. Status post right colectomy on [2184-1-2]. 3. Postoperative myocardial infarction. 4. Diabetes mellitus. 5. Hypertension. 6. Elevated cholesterol. 7.

A MRI done on [2199-2-16] demonstrated multiple small infarcts in the cerebellar hemisphere, left occipital, medial, left temporal lobe consistent with embolic events. A transesophageal echocardiogram demonstrated a large myxoma of the left atrium, and she was transferred to [Hospital1 18] for further care. At the outside hospital, she was anticoagulated and otherwise remained stable. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: Significant for dyslipidemia, borderline hypertension. PAST SURGICAL HISTORY: None. MEDICATIONS AT HOME: Include MVI. ALLERGIES: No known drug allergies. FAMILY HISTORY: Mother has a history of hypertension. Father had history of asthma. SOCIAL HISTORY: No EtOH. Remote history of smoking. She lives at home with her husband. PHYSICAL EXAM: Temperature is 97.3, heart rate 79, blood pressure 150/46. She is [Age over 90 ]% on room air. She is in no acute distress, appearing well. There is no JVD. No carotid bruits. Heart is regular with no murmurs. Her lungs are clear to auscultation bilaterally. Abdomen is soft, nontender, nondistended. She has 2+ distal pulses with no edema in the extremities. She is alert and oriented times three and demonstrated a nonfocal neurologic exam. Laboratory values include a white count of 3.7, hematocrit of 31, platelets of 182. INR was 1.1. BUN was 10, creatinine was 0.7. Rest of her labs were unremarkable. For imaging studies, she had a MRI done on [2199-2-16], which demonstrated multiple small acute and subacute infarcts in the cerebellar hemispheres, left occipital lobe, the left medial/left temporal lobe, the left thalamus, and the right midbrain consistent with shower embolic infarcts in the posterior circulation. No hemorrhage. She also had a TEE on [2199-2-18] which demonstrated a 3 cm x 3 cm mass extending from the high intra-atrial septum of the left atrium. There is no prolapse to the mitral valve. It is multilobular and very mobile. It does not extend across the intra-atrial septum. There was good left ventricular function. She had underwent cardiac catheterization which demonstrated normal coronary arteries, normal cardiac index. Echocardiogram done [2199-2-19] here demonstrated an EF of 60%, a mass in the left atrium, normal wall motion. Chest x-ray had no congestion and no infiltrate. HOSPITAL COURSE: After her workup by the neurology service, the stroke service, the cardiology team, and cardiac surgery team, patient was taken to the operating room on [2199-2-21], where she underwent an atrial myxoma removal and primary repair of intra-atrial septum. She tolerated this procedure well. She postoperatively was transferred to the cardiac surgery intensive care unit. Patient was extubated, remained hemodynamic normal. Was weaned off all pressors. She was transferred to the floor on postoperative day #1. After removal of tubes and wires, she was anticoagulated with Coumadin. Postoperatively, she did have a right hand thrombophlebitis from an old IV site which was monitored and treated with a course of Keflex. She was seen by physical therapy and has passed a level 5 evaluation. She has been stable and is now ready for discharge to home, where she will be anticoagulated and followed by her primary cardiologist. DISCHARGE DIAGNOSES: Embolic stroke. Left atrial myxoma.

Left-sided thoracentesis tracheotomy Peg placement History of Present Illness: 66 year old male with known metastatic thyroid CA to spine, brain, ribs presented to Dr.[Name (NI) 6767] office for routine follow-up today. The patient has back pain but no numbness or tingling. The pain in his back is more of a dull ache and is not nearly as painful as the pain he had in his neck prior to the cyberknife treatment he had at C1 in [Month (only) 958] of this year. He has not had any urinary incontinence but did notice stool staining in his underwear twice this week when he woke up in the morning. He has had controlled bowel movements since then and reports no loss of sensation in the groin or buttock region. The patient noticed that his right leg felt slightly weaker recently, but he had a right hip replacement and attributed the weakness to that surgery. The patient had an MRI of the thoracic spine which showed a new large lesion almost completely occluding the canal. Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 724] sent him to the ER for neurosurgical evaluation. Past Medical History: Metastatic Thyroid Ca HTN Atrial Fibrillation Pulmonary Embolus [1-28] - Anticoagulated with coumadin; has two small lesions on MRI head c/w mets but not contraindications to anticoag.

Reflexes: Pa Ac Right 2+ 1+ Left 3+ 1+ Toes downgoing bilaterally No clonus Pertinent Results: MRI of the thoracic and lumbar spine. [2160-8-1] IMPRESSION: Bony metastatic disease involving the T4, T5, T9, and T10 vertebrae. Spinous process metastasis at T5 indents the spinal cord and results in 50% narrowing of the spinal canal with slight indentation on the spinal cord. Epidural metastasis on the right side of the spinal canal at T9 level displaces the spinal cord to the left side and results in slightly more than 50% narrowing of the spinal canal with moderate cord compression. Other changes as described above. IMPRESSION: Bony metastasis to right pedicle and body of the L1 and superior portion of L2 vertebra as described above. No evidence of epidural mass or spinal cord compression. BONE SCAN. [8-4] IMPRESSION: 1. Osseous metastasis in multiple levels of the thoracic and lumbar spine as described above. Uptake in some vertebrae might be related to degenerative changes but a differentiation cannot be made on the base of this study. 2. Osseous metastasis involving multiple bilateral ribs. 3. Osseous metastasis involving bilateral distal femora. 4. Increased uptake surrounding the femoral component of the right hip prosthesis in the right acetabulum likely related to post-operative changes. However, residual underlying metastasis cannot be ruled out completely.

On admission, he was started on dexamethasone, maintained on levonox fo prior history of pulmonary embolism and maintained in a TLSO. In preparation for surgery on [8-4], a medicine consultation was obtained for surgical risk stratification. CT exam also showed a T9 destructive lesion. Also, bone scan showed evidience of mets at multiple levels of the thoracic and lumbar spine, ribs, and femurs. On [8-5] he had an embolization by Dr. [First Name (STitle) ] and on [8-7] he had T1-T12 Fusion. On [8-8] he had good strength but was not following commands. He received 2u PRBC and his repeat HCT was 28.9 On [8-10] Sputum Cx sent. SVT w/[Month/Year (2) 5509] so a dilt drip was started. One drain was removed. On [8-12] bilateral pleural effusions were tapped by IR and on the following day the 2nd drain out was removed and he was extubated. On [8-14] he was re-intubated. The next day his mental status improved, was following some commands and went to the OR for trach/peg. He tolerated the procedure well and was transitioned to a trach mask on [8-16]. On [8-18] he had A-fib with rapid rate and was on esmolol drip. Staples were removed that day. The esmolol was turned off on [8-19] and he was transferred to the step down unit. The patient had drainage from the JP site so a chest CT was obtained which did not show pleural or thoracic fistula. On [8-21] he was in a-fib again with [Month/Day (4) 5509] and was sent back to the ICU. Cardiology was consulted to help manage his heart rate/rhythm. He converted to sinus rhythm while in the ICU. The patient had drainage from his JP site on [8-24] that was purulent, tan, thick material. On [8-25] thoracics was consulted and they determined that there was no indication for surgery since the pleural effusions were improved. It appeared that the drainage was only from the JP site and not from the previous thoracentesis site. The JP site was still leaking but the drainage was thin and yellowish. Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 548] placed new sutures over the area and by the next day ([8-26]) the site was completely dry the sutures need to stay in place until [9-12] On [8-24] a sputum culture came bac positive for pseudomonas so Zosyn was started. ID was consulted and agreed that this should be continued for 7 days. The drainage from the JP site grew out proteus for which Zosyn was also appropriate. Mr. [Known lastname 20598] was treated for HSV 1 infection on his lips with acyclovir as well. He was transferred to step down unit again on [8-26] but then to the MICU on [8-28] for lower GI bleed and melena. Pt was transfused 1 U prbcs and underwent a colonoscopy which showed:Polyp in the ascending colon, Diverticulosis of the left > right, Ulcers in the distal rectum (biopsy. Recommendations from GI were: Follow-up pathology results. Hold anticoagulation for now and avoid rectal tubes. He was transferred to the MICU service on two different occassions due to a GI bleed and atrial fibrillation. Brief MICU course: # Afib with [Month/Day (4) 5509]. Has had intermittent Afib in past, on amio for rhythm control as well as metoprolol. Metoprolol just restarted today. Precipitant now unclear - hypovolemia, hypervolemia, infection/sepsis, PE, other pulmonary disease, hyperthyroidism. Appears slightly dry on exam (crackles asymmetric). Getting T4 replacement though not currently, appears to have been lost during transfer (last [8-21]). Has been on dilt gtt in past during admit. Did not respond to 10 IV dilt and 10 IV lopressor. BP holding >90. BP responsive to 500 cc bolus. Initially on esmolol gtt, now d/c??????d and getting Metoprolol PO. Echo showed no effusion, EF 55%, leaflets normal but limited study. On readmission to MICU, his TSH was found to be 15. There was concern for PE given the patient's history, but LENIs were negative. Pt had another episode of rapid rates to 180s on the morning of [9-3] which transiently decreased with lopressor and resolved after 750 mL NS bolus. Amiodarone was returned to former dosing of 200 mg [Hospital1 ]. . #Hypothyroidism. Current transfer meds did not include levothyroxine and apparently this med had been held since transfer on [8-21] (not reordered in transfer orders). Continued Synthroid at home dosing plus 200mcg daily. Will need close f/u of TSH in coming days and weeks to correctly dose levothyroxine. # Hypoxemia. After transfer to the MICU, was requiring more O2 than prior transfer (50% TM at the time, now 70-100%). Desat to 80s on [9-2], improved after Atrovent neb. Over remainder of stay requred 50-70% FiO2 on trach mask. There was intially concern for infiltrate on his CXR, so his Zosyn was continued until [2160-9-4]. An intial BNP 1727, which decreased to 1200s the next day. Given concern for PE, LENIs were performed and were negative. - Also tried to wean sedating meds including neuroleptics and pain meds. . #Metastatic papillary CA: S/p recent T1-T12 palliative decompression and fusion on [2160-8-7] with known brain, bone and soft tissue mets. -No active treatment for now, long-term plan of care per Neurosurgery . # LGIB: In the setting of anticoagulation with Lovenox (60mg [Hospital1 ]) for a history of PE in the past. 3 unit PRBC transfusion but now stable. Ulcers on colonoscopy, bx showed no evidence of malignancy, but acute and chronic inflammation consistent with ulcer. Pt has been continued on [Hospital1 ] PPI as per GI recs. Daily Hcts have been stable in MICU. . # Pseudomonas VAP: Pt with Pseudomonas in sputum from [8-25] and on Zosyn since [8-23]. 10 day course extended until [9-4] given hypoxemia and concern for infiltrate on CXR. Added vanc/cipro [2160-8-31], d/c'd cipro [2160-9-2]. Vancomycin was d/c'd on [9-3] when the sputum culture from [9-1] failed to show any growth. # Delirium: Pt with history of delirium that began this admission. Previously had been working. requires frequent reorientation. Has been getting zyprexa prn, however attempting to decrease amount of sedation. . # Leukocytosis: Stable in the 10K range. . # h/o PE: Pt with history of DVT/PE in [2159-1-22]. On anticoag at therapeutic dosing earlier during admit (when had GIB); also with history of hemoptysis presumably from lung mets; also known brain mets. Given his recent GI bleed and hemoptysis we decided to use heparin sq only #Thrombocytopenia: Plt count recovering from nadir of 38LK --> 89K, now 74K Unclear if thrombocytopenia was medication related.

Likely pneumonia or aspiration. Otherwise stable appearance with stents overlying the right mid lung zone and near entire collapse of the right hemithorax from known squamous cell malignancy. Brief Hospital Course: This is a 72-year-old female with a history of non-small cell lung cancer (diagnosed in [2178]), non-massive hemoptysis (s/p right fifth posterior intercostal artery embolization on [2191-1-12]), and recent admission for weakness ([2191-1-14] to [2191-1-18]). . #. Hypoxia: Most likely related to new LLL infiltrate on chest xray, though other possibilities include aspiration event or health-care associated/community acquired PNA. As such, Ms. [Known lastname ] was covered broadly with vancomycin/zosyn/levofloxacin. She was also treated for influenza with oseltamivir given her poor pulmonary reserve. A DFA for flu and urine legionella antigen were sent. However, despite the antibiotics and IVF, Ms. [Known lastname ] continued to be hypoxic. She was given maximal 02 with venti mask, but still had increased work of breathing. After long discussions with family, it was decided to make patient DNR/DNI and not place invasive central venous catheters for pressure support. Throughout the night on [1-23] patient had increasingly labored breathing and the family was called to the bedside. Ms. [Known lastname ] eventually passed surrounded by family. . #. Hypotension: This was concerning for sepsis, even though Ms. [Known lastname ] was initially fluid responsive. She was continued on fluids (as her 02 sats tolerated) and antibiotics. Moreover, she developed a pronounced cardiac arrhythmia toward the end of her life, which also contributed to her poor cardiac output. . #. Urinary tract infection: UTI on admission might also be contributing to septic picture and altered mental status. Again, antibiotic coverage with Vancomycin, Zosyn, Levofloxacin. . #. Somnolence: Multifactorial, with etiologies including sepsis, hypotension, hypoxia, and hypercarbia. An ABG in ED showed respiratory acidosis at 7.30/59/215. Patient was ventilated maximally with venti mask, though no invasive ventilation pursued as above. . #. NSCLC: Patient has survived well beyond the documented expectations of her physicians. Most recently has had course complicated by non-massive hemoptysis s/p embolization. She has been on home hospice for approximately a year. Family understood gravity of the situation and Ms. [Known lastname 68912] strength thus far, but still hoped for a miracle.

Admission Date: [2182-5-19] Discharge Date: [2182-5-24] Date of Birth: [2132-9-19] Sex: M Service: MEDICINE Allergies: Codeine Attending:[First Name3 (LF) 2901] Chief Complaint: Cardiac arrest Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: Intubation Hemodialysis Central line placement History of Present Illness: This is a 49 year-old male with history of diabetes, hypertension, and end stage renal disease who was transfered from an outside hospital after a PEA arrest. For the past week, he has been feeling unwell. One week ago, he underwent placement of a perotoneal dialysis catheter. At that time, he required hospital admission for 2 days due to hyperkalemia and hyperglycemia. He was not dialysed at that time. He had persistent nausea. The day prior to admission, he was back to his baseline health, which is severe fatigue with ambulation of a few yards. The morning of presentation, he began to feel nauseated. Per report, he fell from his chair and was unresponsive. He had some jerking movements of his arms that were similar to his hypoglycemic episodes. Shortly thereafter, he was responsive but then became unresponsive again. When EMS arrived, he was found to be bradycardic in PEA arrest. He received epi and atropine. He subsequently became hypotensive to the 60s systolic and was asystolic. He was transcutaneously paced. He was taken to an outside hospital where he continued to be hypotensive. He received 4 L of IV fluid resuscitation. A temporary pacer was placed, and he was paced at 80 beats per minute. Without pacing, he had only rare junctional escape beats. His labs were notable for hyperkalemia to 6.2, hyperglycemia to the 700s, and acidemia with a pH of 7.03. Cardiac enzymes were negative and his BNP was elevated to [2175]. An echocardiogram revealed an EF of 15-20% with global hypokinesis and decreased right ventricular function. He was transfered to the [Hospital1 18] for further management. On transfer, his vent settings were noted to be incorrect and he was found to be hypoxic to the 50s on 2 separate gases about 1.5 hours apart. On arrival he was oxygenating well. He was on 5 mcg of levophed to maintain his blood pressure. He was intially unresponsive, with fixed dilated pupils, with an absent corneal and gag reflex. An initial potassium was 6.4. He received calcium, bicarb, insulin, and kayexelate. He was admitted to the CCU. Past Medical History: 1. Insulin dependant diabetes diagnosed 20 years ago. 2. End stage renal disease for about 1.5 years with plans to start perironeal dialysis next month. A PD catheter was placed last week. 3. Hypertension 4. Hyperlipidemia 5. History of lens removal in left eye. 6. History of TIA Social History: He is currently not working. He is married and has 2 children. He smokes 1 pack per day. He doesn't drink alcohol. Family History: His mother has a triple bypass in her 60s. She also has diabetes and hypertension. Physical Exam: Vitals: Temperature:34 rectal Blood Pressure:121/72 on levophed Pulse:80 V-paced Respiratory:16 Rate: Oxygen Saturation:99% on vent. General: Intubated in no acute distress. HEENT: Left pupil surgical fixed at 8mm, right pupil surgical at 6mm, moist mucous membranes. Cardiac: Regular rhythm, paced, S1, S1, no murmurs, rubs, gallops. Pulmonary: Clear to auscultation bilaterally. Abdomen: Normoactive bowel sounds, soft, nontender, nondistended, healing surgical incision. Extremities: Cool to touch, 2+ radilal and dorsalis pedis pulses. Left cortis dressing intact. Neuro: Spontaneous eye opening, tracking to voice, moving all 4 extremities. Pertinent Results: Outside Hospital: 1. Chest x-ray: Cardiomegally, pacer wires coiled in the right ventricle, pulmonary edema, widened mediastinum. 2. Head CT: Negative for acute bleed or mass effect. 3. Echocardiogram: EF 15-20% with global hypokinesis. Decreased right ventricular systolic function. . [Hospital1 18]: 1. Chest x-ray: Cardiomegally, pacer wires coiled in right ventricle, widened mediastinum, pulmonary edema. 2. Chest CTA: No pulmonary emboli, no aortic dissection, pulmonary edema with bilateral pleural effusions, coronary arteries grossly clean. . EKG: Ventricular paced at 80 bpm with left bundle morphology. EKG with underlying rhythm: narrow complex escape beats at 50-60. . TTE [2182-5-21]: Conclusions: 1. The left atrium is mildly dilated. 2. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The left ventricular cavity size is normal. Overall left ventricular systolic function is moderately depressed. LVEF 40% Distal anterior, apical, and distal inferior hypokinesis is present. 3. The aortic root is mildly dilated. 4. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. 5. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. 6. There is a small pericardial effusion. . . Exercise stress test: [2182-5-22] The baseline EKG showed prominant voltage, diffuse STT wave abnormalities and LAE. No additional, significant ST segment changes over baseline were observed during the infusion or in recovery. The rhythm was sinus with no ectopy. Appropriate blood pressure response to the infusion; blunted heart rate response. The dipyridamole was reversed with 125 mg of aminophylline IV. IMPRESSION: No anginal type symptoms or significant EKG changes over baseline. Nuclear report sent separately. . PERSANTINE MIBI [2182-5-22] RADIOPHARMECEUTICAL DATA: 3.1 mCi Tl-201 Thallous Chloride; 21.0 mCi Tc-[Age over 90 ]m Sestamibi; HISTORY: Diabetes, ESRD, and hypertension, status post hyperkalemia-related cardiac arrest. CAD evaluation. SUMMARY OF THE PRELIMINARY REPORT FROM THE EXERCISE LAB: Dipyridamole was infused intravenously for 4 minutes at a dose of 0.142 milligram/kilogram/min. Two minutes after the cessation of infusion, Tc-99m sestamibi was administered IV. INTERPRETATION: Image Protocol: Gated SPECT Resting perfusion images were obtained with thallium. Tracer was injected 15 minutes prior to obtaining the resting images. This study was interpreted using the 17-segment myocardial perfusion model. The image quality is adequate. Left ventricular cavity size is dilated, and more dilated at stress than at rest. Resting and stress perfusion images reveal uniform tracer uptake throughout the myocardium. Gated images reveal diffuse hypokinesis without focal wall motion abnormalities.The calculated left ventricular ejection fraction is 48% IMPRESSION: 1. Normal myocardial perfusion. 2. Transient dilitation of the left ventricle during dipyridamole (stress) images compared to rest, with a baseline dilated left ventricle. Brief Hospital Course: 49 year-old male with diabetes, end-stage renal disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia admitted with cardiac arrest likely secondary to hyperkalemia and acidemia. . 1. Cardiac arrest: Patient had an asystolic arrest in the setting of hyperkalemia to 6.4 and acidemia to 7.0. On arrival, he was 100% paced with an underlying rhythm of 50-60s junctional escapes. He was also hypotensive requiring Levophed. He was treated for hyperkalemia in the emergency department with calcium gluconate, bicarb, insulin, and Kayexalate. His mental status improved with treatment of hyperkalemia. His EKG with back-up pacing at a rate of 40 showed heart block with occasional conducted beats with AV delay. There was also some inappropriate pacing spikes. The sensing was decreased with good effect. He subsequently converted to normal sinus rhythm without AV delay as his potassium was corrected. His blood pressure also improved with treatment of his hyperkalemia. He is currently off of Levophed. Patient had a repeat TTE which demonstrated an improvement in his EF to 40%. Temporary pacer was discontinued on [2182-5-20]. Patient did not have further evidence of arrythmia. He will have close follow-up locally and he will have his PCP refer him to a local cardiologist. . 2. Chronic renal failure: secondary to diabetes and hypertension. At the OSH the patient had a catheter placed with the goal of starting peritoneal dialysis in 1 month. However, during that hospitalization, he then developed hyperkalemia and subsequent PEA arrest, which required transfer to [Hospital1 18].He was dialyzed on the night of admission and had two additional sessions of hemodialysis while in-house. Tunneled dialysis line placed [5-22] and out-pt hemodialysis was coordinated; he has follow-up with Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] his nephrologist on [2182-5-25]. . 3. Diabetes: He was hyperglycemic to 700s initially without any evidence of ketosis. He received insulin and was started on an insulin drip. He was requiring 1 unit per hour. On hospital day 2, he was transitioned to NPH and the insulin drip was weaned off. He was discharged on a regimen of glargine and lispro. . 3. Congestive Heart Failure: At the outside hospital, he had an echocardiogram that showed diffused hypokinesis with an ejection fraction of 15-20%. It also showed decreased right ventricular function. According to his wife, he had a normal echocardiogram on month prior. Repeat ECHO at [Hospital1 18] showed at EF of 40%. His EF may continue to improve following this event. He should have a repeat ECHO in the next several months. . 4. Elevation in cardiac enzymes: On admit, he had a troponin leak that was likely secondary to hypotension in the setting of his arrest. Also, noted to have elevated CK-MB. Enzymes trended down during his admission. He did not have a cath while he was here. He will discuss elective cardiac catheterization at follow-up with his PCP and primary cardiologist. . 6. Hypertension: Was briefly on pressors, then as pressure came up required Nitro for blood pressure control (initially avoiding nodal blocking agents). Additional agents were slowly added back and he was discharged on a regimen of Procardia, labetalol and lisinopril. Blood pressure will be followed by PCP and [Name9 (PRE) ] regimen will be titrated up as necessary. . 7. Intubation: He was intubated for airway protection at the OSH. As his electrolyte disturbances resolved, ventilation and sedation were weaned. He was extubated on hospital day 2. He did not have any additional respiratory issues. Medications on Admission: 1.

Admission Date: [2169-9-3] Discharge Date: [2169-9-15] Service: HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is an 82 year-old gentleman admitted on [9-3] with altered neurologic status. The patient and daughters were visiting in the [Name (NI) 86] area for a whale watch from [State 531]. The daughter noticed the change in speech and behavior and went to an outside hospital where a head CT showed bifrontal subdural hematoma. The patient was transferred to [Hospital1 188] for further management. The patient's subdural hematoma noted on head CT with some shift and mass effect with no invasive intervention required. Did not require intubation and no seizures were detected. The patient was placed on prophylactic Dilantin. The patient was on some intravenous nitroprusside to keep his blood pressure less then 150, but was successfully weaned off on [9-6]. He remained in the Neurological Intensive Care Unit until [2169-9-5]. He had an attempted arteriogram, which was not completed secondary to an incidental finding of a 4 by 5 cm AAA. Therefore vascular surgery was consulted. A CTA was done to measure the AAA. The patient also had an episode of acute renal failure most likely related to the dye from CT scan. Also post obstructive from inability to void. The patient's BUN and creatinine climbed to 60 and 3.6. Currently his creatinine is down to 2.5, BUN is 50. Vascular surgery will follow him as an outpatient for workup for this AAA and he will actually probably be referred to a doctor in [State 531] for further treatment of that. His renal failure is resolving at this time. He was seen by speech and swallow. The patient is able to tolerate a regular diet. He also developed a rash on [2169-9-12] on just his back. Dermatology was consulted and they felt it was heat rash, although Dilantin was discontinued and the patient also had complaints of fever. Fever workup to this point is negative. Chest x-ray is negative. Urine negative and blood cultures are pending. The patient was transferred to the regular floor on [2169-9-6] and was evaluated by physical therapy and occupational therapy and found to require rehab prior to discharge to home. He is being screened for a rehab in [State 531]. MEDICATIONS ON DISCHARGE: Azithromycin 250 mg po q 24 hours for nine days, which was started on [2169-9-13].

Admission Date: [2162-12-24] Discharge Date: [2163-1-21] Date of Birth: [2098-5-17] Sex: M Service: Neurosurgery. HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 64-year-old male who was admitted to [Hospital1 69] from [Hospital6 5016] on [2162-12-24] status post a headache with vomiting. Head CT showed a frontal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The patient was intubated at the outside hospital and transferred to [Hospital1 190] for further management. HOSPITAL COURSE: On admission, the subarachnoid hemorrhage extended into the pons. He had evidence of hydrocephalus, and a vent drain was placed. He went to arteriogram which showed no evidence of a source of bleeding. He had his blood pressure controlled with Nipride and labetalol. He was started on an insulin drip for high blood sugars. He was extubated on [2162-12-25]. He had a repeat head CT which showed no changes. He was awake, alert, moving all extremities, and following commands bilaterally. On [2162-12-26], he had a repeat head CT which showed intraventricular blood with intracerebral blood continuing. His labetalol drip was discontinued, and he was continued on a Nipride drip. He had an increase in creatinine up to 2.1. Admission creatinine was 1.0. He had Lopressor added for blood pressure control, and Nipride was discontinued. He was continued on nimodipine for prevention of vasospasm. The Renal Service was consulted due to his acute renal failure. He was placed on a Lasix drip which started on [2162-12-28] and was discontinued on [2163-1-1]. He continued to be on an insulin drip to keep his blood sugars under control. Neurologically, he was alert, following commands, moving all extremities but confused and disoriented to place and time. He was occasionally agitated with tremors. He was also placed on renal dose Dopamine to help with kidney perfusion and urine output. On [2162-12-28], he also had difficulty with respiratory distress and was intubated. He was put on propofol and sedated. He remained intubated until [2163-1-4] and then was extubated again. His neurologic status waxed and waned. He had episodes where he was very lethargic and not moving his extremities very well. He had CT and MRI of the C-spine which showed no evidence of cord compression. On [2163-1-8], his BUN and creatinine were 59 and 1.8. At this point, he was off Lasix drip. Neurologically, he was awake, moved his right arm against gravity. He was impersistently following commands and externally rotated both his lower extremities with some withdrawal to noxious stimulation. He continued to have a ventilator drain in place. He became hypernatremic with sodiums of 149-150. His BUN and creatinine continued to be 59 and 1.8. He had Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus in his sputum. The patient was started on Lasix 40 mg p.o. t.i.d. for fluid overload. The patient's drain was raised to 15 cm above the tragus on [2163-1-11] which he tolerated. He continued to have high sodium levels of 152. He continued on Lasix t.i.d. for fluid overload. He had a bed-side swallow evaluation on which he had some oral apraxia, but they obtained a video swallow, which he did pass. However, post procedure, he did vomit. It was felt that because his mental status was not completely improved, he should hold off on feeding. Mental status did improve, and he did start on a regular diet. On [2163-1-14], the patient's drain had been clamped for 24 hours. He had a head CT which showed mild to moderate ventricular dilatation. The patient's drain was then left clamped until [2163-1-16] when a repeat head CT showed no further dilatation, and the drain was discontinued. The patient had his diet advanced, was to be out of bed with Physical Therapy and was transferred to the regular floor on [2163-1-17]. He has remained neurologically stable with stable vital signs. He has tolerated a regular diet. He has been out of bed with physical therapy and requires acute rehabilitation. DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS: 1. Metoprolol 125 mg p.o. b.i.d., hold for heart rate less than 50, systolic blood pressure less than 100. 2. Bacitracin ointment to his head suture site t.i.d. 3. Insulin sliding scale. 4.

She was transferred [2171-1-30] from OSH after presenting with fall backwards onto her occiput from 2 stair height without reported LOC. She was on coumadin at that time. On presentation to OSH GCS 15 and head CT showed significant SAH. She was transferred to [Hospital1 18] for further care. . She was admitted to TICU [2171-1-30] for neurologic monitoring. INR was reversed with FFP and Vitamin K. While in the TICU, the patient became increasingly lethargic and was only intermittently oriented A&Ox3. She was found to have hydrocephalus and underwent external ventricular drain placement [2171-2-2]. She underwent Dobhoff placement under fluoro [2171-2-8]. . During her hospitalization, chest radiograph with pulmonary edema, basilar crackles and patient was diuresed with Lasix. She became hypoxic with decrease in blood pressures from baseline, and she went to the SICU [2-3] for a Lasix drip. Subsequently, she was called out [2-5] and her standing home Lasix dose was increased. On [2-8], she was noted to have increased respiratory effort with a "wet" cough, with PO2 88-96% and tachycardia. LENIs were negative. She received 300cc free water boluses for tachycardia and subsequently for hypotension in the 80's. Medicine was called and on review of the imaging studies and given the patient's hypoxia and hypotension, recommended initiating Vanc/Cefepime/Flagyl for possible aspiration pneumonia as well as a 250cc bolus x2 for SBP 70's-80's. A discussion of possible intubation was held with the son and the patient was made DNR/DNI. Lasix was d/c'ed. Cultures were drawn, and ABG showed 7.51/40/105/33 with a lactate of 2.7. . Of note, during the hospital course, the patient had loose stool [2-6] and had C. diff x3 which were negative. Her standing bowel regimen was d/c'ed. Of note, she was started on tube feeds on [2-4]. . This morning, [2171-2-9], the patient was found to have BP 70/30s and somnolent, minimally responsive to noxious stimuli. MERIT was called for further management and potential transfer to medicine service. On evaluation, the patient somnolent and a hct drop from 36 -> 31 was noted. She was written for 1 unit PRBC and 250cc bolus NS was initiated in the interim. Oxygen saturation fluctuated between high 80's-100% on high flow face mask. Of note, per neurosurgery, external ventricular drain at 10 open. . On evaluation in the MICU, she is nonverbal. She moans to sternal rub and does hold her son's hand.

Unchanged size of the right frontal lobe intraparenchymal hemorrhage, surrounding edema, and degree of mild leftward subfalcine herniation. 3. Unchanged right superior frontal lobe and left frontal/parietal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Further workup for underlyign cause after clinical correlation, as clinically indicated. . [2-8] CT Head: 1. Unchanged size of the right frontal lobe intraparenchymal hemorrhage, surrounding edema, and extent of leftward shift of normally midline structures. 2. No significant change in ventricular enlargement. . [2-8] LENI: No DVT. . [2-13] CT Head: 1. No significant change in the size of the right frontal lobe parenchymal hemorrhage, surrounding edema, or associated mass effect, including the slight leftward shift of normally-midline structures. 2. Near-complete interval resorption or drainage of intraventricular hemorrhage. Ventricular size is not significantly changed. . [2-14] CT Head: 1. Moderate right frontal intraparenchymal hematoma with surrounding vasogenic edema and effacement of the cerebral sulci and mild leftward shift of midline structures in the frontal region as before. No new acute intracranial hemorrhage noted. Intraventricular hemorrhage in the occipital horns unchanged. Continued close follow up as clinically indicated. While this may relate to trauma, underlying vascular/ neoplastic cause can be excluded after appropriate workup as felt necessary. 2. Persistent moderate dilation of the lateral ventricles, which has mildly increased from the prior study. Accurate assessment and comparison is limited due to the differences in position between the two studies and motion-related artifacts on the present study. Continued close follow up as clinically indicated. 3. Moderate mucosal thickening in the ethmoid and the sphenoid sinuses with small amount of fluid. . [2-15] CT Head: 1.

CXR [2-19] IMPRESSION: Similar moderate-to-extensive bilateral hazy opacities, with persistent bibasilar opacities, likely combination of pneumonia and pulmonary edema. Mild cardiomegaly stable. Brief Hospital Course: Brief hospital course: . # Intracranial hemorrhage: Patient was admitted post fall as a transfer from OSH with large frontal IPH. Patient's coagulopathy was reversed with Por 9, Vit K and FFP. She was admitted to the ICU for Q1 hour neurochecks, systolic blood pressure control less than 140 and ICU care. Her occipital scalp laceration was stapled and she was started on Ancef IV in setting of open occipital fracture. She was loaded and started on Dilantin for seizure prophylaxis. Repeat Head CT on [1-30] showed mild increase in the size of hemorrhage with extension into the ventricular system. Repeat head CT on [1-31] was stable, she was started on SC heparin TID, restarted on her home Lasix dose of 40mg TID and she was transferred to the step down unit. On [2-1] she remained neurologically stable. On [2-1] she remained neurologically stable.On [2-2] she was lethargic and only arousable to sternal rub. A head CT showed hydrocephalus and an EVD was emergently placed in the OR. Her EVD was found to not be draining and it was drawn back 1cm with good results. On [2-8] Head CT demonstrated slight enlargement of ventricles an so EVD was opened at 10cm above the tragus. Drain clamped [2171-2-13], and CT head following day demonstrated stable findings. Drain removed [2171-2-14]. . # Respiratory failure: On [1-31], patient developed respiratory distress and desaturations to the upper 80's. She was given lasix x1 and a CXR was obtained. This revealed bilateral pleural effusions and vascular congestion. On [2-2] she was lethargic and only arousable to sternal rub. A head CT showed hydrocephalus and an EVD was emergently placed in the OR. She was also noted to have pulmonary edema and was given lasix. On [2-3] she was transferred to the ICU for diuresis. She was transfered back to the step down unit the following day. On [2-8], oxygen requirement increased again to 6L with a CXR consistent with pulmonary edema. Her lasix was increased to TID. She was started on and Cefipime/Vancomycin/Flagyl for presumed pneumonia. On [2-9], her care was transitioned to the MICU team. Hypoxia was felt to be due to aspiration and pulmonary edema. She was continued on broad-spectrum antibiotics initiated [2171-2-9] - vancomycin, cefepime, metronidazole. Metronidazole d/c'd [2171-2-10]. Sputum culture positive for MRSA. Patient steadily improved on antibiotic therapy, with decreased dyspnea. Plan was for 14 day total course of treatment, and all antibiotics were stopped on [2-19]. O2 weaned to 4-5L NC. . # Hypotension: Was felt to be secondary to intravascular volume depletion in the setting of diuresis, as evidenced by metabolic alkalosis (contraction alkalosis). Concern for peri-sepsis component given patient needed multiple boluses to maintain BP in 80's-90's, initially 100's-130's on transfer to [Hospital1 18]. Patient continued on 250cc boluses to maintain SBP >90, and diuretics, beta blockers held. She was on broad spectrum antibitics as above, and pan-cultured to look for etiology of infection. As above, sputum positive for MRSA PNA. Hypotension resolved with continued antibiotic treatment. . # Goals of care / Altered mental status: Patient was called out to the floor on [2-14], but she became progressive lethargic and was sent back to the ICU on [2-17]. [Month (only) 116] have been related to infection, hypernatremia (mild), delirium from complicated medical course. Mental status improved with antibiotic course, free water flushes, and reorientation. CSF fluid was sent for analysis, but was not concerning for infectious process. Mental status did not improve, and a family meeting was held on [2-19] with the decision to pursue comfort measures only care. As such, she is being transferred to hospice care. Palliative care consult was initiated on [2-20] and advised Zydis 5mg Q 12 hrs on as needed basis to decrease agitation (as opposed to scheduled dosing-- he'd rather she not be overly sedated if possible, does want to treatsymptoms), and discussed using MS 2.5-5 mg SL (5mg/ml concentration) Q 3 hrs as needed to ease respiratory distress. Would consider scopolamine patch 1.5 mg patch Q 3 days if secretions increase (recognizing that this may contribute to sedation as well). Medications on Admission: 1. Metoprolol 25mg [Hospital1 ] 2.

IMAGING: [2147-1-16] CXR: No acute intrathoracic process. . [2147-1-19] Abdominal X-Ray (KUB): Large amounts of free air in the abdomen. Potential additional moderate distension of small bowel loops. Gas markings in the bowel and rectum. . [2147-1-24] BAS/UGI AIR/SBFT: FINDINGS: Scout views demonstrate no free air under the diaphragm. Surgical clips are seen around the area of the duodenal bulb. Surgical staples are seen along the left paramedian abdomen. A nasogastric tube is seen terminating in the stomach. A drain is seen terminating in the right middle quadrant. The examination was performed in the upright and supine position. Conray followed by barium was used in this study. Contrast was noted to flow freely through the esophagus into the stomach and into the duodenal bulb and C-sweep. There was no evidence of extraluminal escape of contrast. IMPRESSION: Status post [Location (un) ] patch procedure for duodenal perforation without evidence of leak. . MICROBIOLOGY: [2147-1-17] HELICOBACTER PYLORI ANTIBODY TEST (Final [2147-1-18]): NEGATIVE BY EIA. (Reference Range-Negative). Brief Hospital Course: ADMISSION [2147-1-19]: . Upon arrival in the [Hospital1 18] Emergency Department, the patient's VS were T 95.4 oral, HR 70, BP 146/48, RR 18, SaO2 99%2LNC. She was noted to appear dry and pale. In the ED, she complained that she had been having some diarrhea since taking the sennokot. She also complained on some blood on her stool. Also, her HCT was 28 from a baseline in the mid-30s. She refused a rectal. She also complained of a mild cough but no fever or recent travel. She complained on three days of intermittend chest heaviness. She complained on this chest heaviness this am upon awakening. CXR showed no focal consolidation. She was noted to have an increased BUN. Her first set of cardiac enzymes was negative. She was given NTG, morphine, and ASA 325mg with no relief. Her VS prior to transfer were P 71, SaO2 98%RA, BP 128/47, RR 24, Afebrile. . On arrival to the floor, the patient's VS were T 98.2, BP 123/52, HR 78, RR 18, SaO2 100% on RA. She was looking more pale and uncomfortable and started vomiting coffee grounds as well as passing melena. CXR showed tortuous aorta with no focal consolidation. First set enzymes negative with lactate 1.7. Hct went from low 30's baseline, to 27.8 at 12:50 pm to 20.0 at 8:30. At that point, she was ordered for emergency release blood and was transferred to the MICU. . MICU COURSE [1-17] - [2147-1-19]: . Upon arrival in the MICU, the patient received received 4 units of unmatched blood emergently with appropriate bump in Hct from 20 to 31 plus. She was intubated to protect her airway. Gastroenterology was emergently consulted, and an EGD was performed which revealed a massive dark colored mass-like lesion near duodenal bulb; the stomach was clear. She was started on IV Protonix, folic acid, Vitamin C, B12, and folate. A repeat EGD revealed 3 ulcers of the duodenal bulb. The patient was stabilized. . On [2147-1-18], the patient went into new atrial fibrillation with RVR 120-140's, felt diaphoretic without chest pain, SOB, palpitations, lightheadedness. She was given Metoprolol 5mg IV x3 with minimal response. Finally, responded to Diltiazem 10mg IV once with a HR to the 90's. The patient experienced melena in the morning. She received 6 units of PRBCs and 2 units of FFP. Later, she underwent Angiogram which demonstrated no definite focus of active extravasation seen on SMA, celiac, and selective gastroduodenal artery (GDA) arteriograms. The GDA branches supplying region of endoscopic vascular clipping within known duodenal bulb ulcer were identified, and the GDA was successful embolized using microcoils and Gelfoam. . On [2147-1-19], the patient experienced persistent abdominal pain, decreased bowel sounds, and no flatus. A portable KUB was performed, which demonstrated large amounts of free air in the abdomen, potential additional moderate distension of small bowel loops, and gas markings in the bowel and rectum. Lactate level was 0.9. General Surgery was called, and the patietn was taken to the Operating Room within an hour for bowel perforation. . POST-OPERATIVE COURSE [1-19] - [2147-1-26]: . On [2147-1-19], the patient underwent exploratory laparotomy with lysis of adhesions and [Location (un) ] patch closure of perforated duodenal ulcer, which went well without complication (reader referred to the Operative Note for details). Extubated in the OR. After a brief, uneventful stay in the PACU, the patient arrived in the SICU NPO with an NG tube in place, on IV fluids, with a foley catheter and JP drain in place, and initially either Morphine or Dilaudid IV PRN for pain control. She was started on IV Flagyl, Levofloxacin, and Fluconazole. IV Protonix was continued. The patient was hemodynamically stable. The patient was transferred to the inpatient floor on POD#3. . Neuro: Initially, the patient received IV Morphine or Dilaudid PRN for pain, which was converted to a Dilaudid PCA on POD#2. Whe tolerating a clear diet, the PCA was discontinued, and the patient started on oral pain medications with continued good pain control. She remained neurologically intact during hospitalization. . CV: On POD#1, the patient experienced atrial fibrillation with RVR with a troponin bump to 0.14. She was started on a Diltiazem drip with good response and rate control. Cardiology was consulted. Previous transthoracic echocardiogram and PERSANTINE persantine stress tests were reviewed. EF was 55%. Use of anti-coagulation therapy was deemed contra-indicated at this time due to the GI bleed. The patient's TSH was found to be suppressed at less than less than 0.02 consistent with hyperthyroidism. Endocrinology consult was recommended. Ultimately, able to transition the patient off Diltiazem to IV Metoprolol enabling transfer to the inpatient unit on POD#3. Once able to tolerate a diet, the patient was transtiotned back to her outpatient Atenolol 100mg [Hospital1 ] for rate control and other anti-hypertensives for BP control with good effect. . Pulmonary: Intubated for airway protection as above, ultiamtely extubed after surgery on [2147-1-19]. The patient remained stable from a pulmonary standpoint; vital signs were routinely monitored. Good pulmonary toilet, early ambulation and incentive spirrometry were encouraged throughout hospitalization. . GI/GU/FEN: Post-operatively, the patient was made NPO with IV fluids. In the SICU, she required a number of IV fluid boluses totalling 2 liters for low urine output with ultimate good response. On POD#1, she was started on TPN for nutrition. The foley catheter was discontinued on POD#3; she was subsequently able to void without problem. After an upper GI study with barium swallow and small bowel follow through demonstrated no leak, the NG tube was discontinued and the patient started on sips of clears on POD#5. Diet was progressively advanced to regular by POD#7, which was well tolerated. The patient was weaned off TPN on POD#7. Patient's intake and output were closely monitored, and IV fluid was adjusted when necessary. Electrolytes were routinely followed, and repleted when necessary. JP discontinued on POD#7. . ID: Placed on empiric IV Flagyl, Levofloxacin and Fluconazole post-operatively. H. pylori screen was negative. Fluconazole was discontinued on POD#3 with Flagyl and Levofloxacin continued. At discharge, the patient was sent out on an additional 10 days of oral Levofloxacin and Flagyl. Of note, routine MRSA screen was negative. The patient's white blood count and fever curves were closely watched for signs of infection. Midline surgical incision with staples remained clean and intact. Staples can be removed, and steri-strips placed at the ouitpatient nursing facility on POD#10 (1/1/3/09). . Endocrine: As above, Endocrinology was consulted given the finding of a suppressed TSH of less than 0.02 in the context of atrial fibrillation. The patient has a history of multinodular goiter. Futher thyroid studies were evaluated. She was started on Methimazole (Tapazole) 20mg PO daily, an anti-thyroid medication, for biochemical thyrotoxicosis. Of note, the risks of this medication are rare hepatic failure and agranulocytosis. Patient should be instructed that if she develops a fever or sore throat, she should stop the methimazole immediately and have a CBC checked. There is not a need for surveillance CBC or LFT's as these reactions are acute. A thyroid scan was ruled out given the patient recent high IV contrast burden to avoid renal impact. The aptient will follow-up with Endocrine as an outpatient in 4 weeks, at which time repeat Thyroid functiontests will be performed. The patient's blood sugar was monitored throughout his stay; sliding scale insulin was administered accordingly. She did not require exogenous insulin at discharge. . Hematology: During this admission, the patient received a total of 13 units of PRBCs and 3 untis of FFP. HCT prior to discharge was 26.9. . Prophylaxis: The patient received subcutaneous heparin and venodyne boots were used during this stay; was encouraged to get up and ambulate as early as possible. . At the time of discharge, the patient was doing well, afebrile with stable vital signs. The patient was tolerating a regular diet, ambulating with assitance, voiding without assistance, and pain was well controlled. She was discharged to an extended care facility for further nursing care and rehabilitation. The patient received discharge teaching and follow-up instructions with understanding verbalized and agreement with the discharge plan.

Prior to admission she underwent pre-operative work-up including cardiac catheterization. On [1-4] she was brought to the operating room please see operative report for details, in summary she had: aortic valve replacement with #21 [First Name8 (NamePattern2) ] [Male First Name (un) 923] tissue valve. Her bypass time was 79 minutes with a crossclamp time of 62 minutes. She tolerated the operation well and following surgery she was transferred to the CVICU in stable condition for invasive monitoring. In the immediate post-op period she remained hemodynamically stable, was weaned from sedation, awoke neurologically intact and extubated. On POD1 she continued to be hemodynamically stable and was transferred to stepdown floor for continued post-op care. All tubes lines and drains were removed according to cardiac surgery protocol without complication. She went into a rapid atrial fibrillation on POD 1 night and was given increased dose of Lopressor, IV amiodarone/ po Amiodarone and converted to sinus rhythm at 3 AM on POD2. She remained hemodynamically stable throughout remainder of hospital course. She was diuresed with Lasix toward preoperative weight. Once on the stepdown floor she worked with nursing and physical therapy to improve strength and mobility. The remainder of her hospital course was uneventful. On POD #4 she was tolerating a full oral diet, her incision was healing well and she was ambulating with assistance. She was cleared for discharge to [Location (un) ] House rehab.

Admission Date: [2188-2-27] Discharge Date: [2188-3-2] Date of Birth: [2168-9-15] Sex: M Service: TRAUMA HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 19 year old male who was in his otherwise usual state of good health until the Sunday, [2188-2-25], when he was involved in an altercation with an acquaintance where he was struck by a baseball bat with a single strike to the left flank and midaxilla over the tenth, eleventh and twelfth ribs. The patient sustained a significant amount of pain, however, he opted to return home, having some intermittent shortness of breath and difficulty taking deep breaths, and pleuritic type pain. He was seen at [Hospital ] [Hospital ] Hospital on [2188-2-26], and diagnosed with a left hemopneumothorax as well as CT scan of the abdomen revealing a severe splenic laceration. His admission hematocrit at the outside hospital was 38.0. He was placed in Intensive Care Unit, placed on serial hematocrit values. He did have a small left apical hemopneumothorax requiring insertion of a left anterior chest wall dart tube thoracostomy with good resolution of his pneumothorax. Over the ensuing 72 hours, the patient stayed in the hospital and had serial hematocrit levels. His blood count dropped to 26.0 on [2188-2-26], and he was transfused a single unit of packed red blood cells with good response bringing his hematocrit up to around the 31.0 mark. However, on the day following on Wednesday, [2188-2-28], the patient experienced the acute onset of severe left chest pain, dyspnea and left flank pain. This prompted a repeat CAT scan of the chest and abdomen. The outside hospital radiologist felt that there may or may not have been evidence of a possible aortic injury at this time prompting a transfer to [Hospital1 69] for further evaluation. The patient was brought in by ground, hemodynamically stable, complaining of left sided chest pain. The remainder of his hospital course will be described further. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: None. MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION: The patient takes no medications at home. ALLERGIES: He has no allergies. SOCIAL HISTORY: The patient denies smoking or drinking alcohol. He is single and has a girlfriend. [Name (NI) ] works as a landscaper. REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: Otherwise negative up until the time of this event, he was well. FAMILY HISTORY: Noncontributory. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: On presentation, his temperature was 98.2, heart rate 88, blood pressure 112/70 and he was breathing 18, oxygen saturation 96% in room air. He was in no acute distress complaining of left sided chest pain and pain on deep inspiration. He had an obvious left anterior tube thoracostomy in place with no evidence of air leak through the Heimlich valve. His trachea was midline. There was no crepitus on either chest wall and his chest was without heaves. His heart was regular. Lungs were clear bilaterally, decreased at the left base. There were no crackles, rubs or rhonchi. His abdomen was soft, tender in the left upper quadrant. There was some mild left flank ecchymosis. There was no obvious crepitus. There were no peritoneal signs. Bowel sounds were hypoactive. His rectal examination was guaiac negative, normal tone. Extremities were unremarkable and without any deformity. He had normal pulses throughout. His neurosensory examination was otherwise unremarkable and his pupillary examination again was noted to be normal. LABORATORY DATA: Admission hematocrit here was noted to be 31.0. HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was placed on conservative grade IV splenic laceration protocol with serial q4hour hematocrit checks and an Intensive Care Unit admission. Admission chest x-ray showed that he had fairly good expansion of his left chest, however, there was a small left hemothorax and discussion was held as to whether or not the patient should undergo a larger tube thoracostomy for empiric drainage of this blood, however, it was decided that the patient was stable and we would not pursue this matter unless the patient needed to go to the operating room. The patient's hematocrit did drop to as low as 26.0 while in the hospital here. He was not transfused any blood products. This bottomed out on Thursday, [2188-2-28], and thereafter his hematocrit increased on its own. He did not ultimately require an operation and his symptoms improved. He was making excellent urine. He made the excellent progress as he was made NPO with serial hematocrit to the point of [2188-3-1], when his hematocrit was up to 31.0 and stable that we opted to give him a clear liquid diet. His Foley catheter had previously been removed. On the following day on [2188-3-2], the patient's hematocrit was up to 33.0 and he was making excellent urine and tolerating liquids ad lib and his diet was therefore advanced to a house diet as tolerated. It was deemed that the patient had now progressed approximately seven days postinjury without any hemodynamic instability and his hematocrit was improving. He was felt symptomatically and vascularly improved and follow-up chest x-ray that was done post tube thoracostomy removal showed no evidence of residual pneumothorax. There was a very small minimal left hemothorax that was left in place. It was opted that the patient did not require further tube thoracostomy under the care of Dr. [First Name4 (NamePattern1) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) ] covering for Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ]. The patient was counseled on possible presentation of delayed splenic bleed including the warning signs of dizziness, left upper quadrant pain, new bruising, lightheadedness or syncope. The patient understood the instructions to immediately go to the nearest Emergency Room if any of these symptoms were to return. He will follow-up in the Trauma Clinic in approximately two to four weeks. He is instructed not to undergo any strenuous lifting or activity. His job as a landscaper should be postponed until he is seen in follow-up in the clinic setting. He will not engage in any contact sports for at least six weeks. He will not ride in ATV or drive a motorcycle for an additional six weeks as well. MEDICATIONS ON DISCHARGE: 1. Tylenol as needed. 2. Colace 100 mg p.o. twice a day as stool softener. 3. Dilaudid 2 mg tablets one to two tablets every three to four hours as needed for breakthrough pain. DISCHARGE DIAGNOSIS: 1. Grade IV splenic laceration with active blush on CT angiography on admission CAT scan on [2188-2-27]. 2. Hemoperitoneum. 3. Blood loss anemia. 4. Left hemopneumothorax, status post anterior left tube thoracostomy.

For the past couple days, his wife noted that he was increasingly lethargic and that he was complaining of abdominal pain. 4 days prior to presentation, he had been tapped therapeutically and 12 L of fluid was drained; he does get weekly paracenteses for recurrent ascites following a failed TIPS. He was initiated on HD in [2121-9-20] for hepatorenal syndrome, the hemodialysis being a bridge until he gets a transplant. Initially he was getting tapped twice a week; the frequency of his taps has decreased to once a week. In the emergency department, diagnostic paracentesis revealed > 4000 WBCs in para fluid suggestive of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. Vancomycin and zosyn were administered. Nephrology and hepatology were consulted. Lactate was noted to be 6. At time of transfer to the MICU, vitals were: 98.2 105/74 18. Past Medical History: -Alcohol-related cirrhosis complicated by esophageal varices, encephalopathy, refractory ascites s/p TIPS which is likely no longer patent, h/o hepato-renal syndrome requiring admission to [Hospital1 18] from [2121-4-18] to [2121-4-30], and h/o SBP on Cipro ppx.

A left IJ tunneled dialysis catheter is again noted with its tip residing in the expected location of the right atrium. Lung volumes are low. Previously noted right PICC line has been removed. Given the low lung volumes, evaluation of the lung bases is limited. There is linear opacity in the left retrocardiac space, likely representing atelectasis. No definite signs of pneumonia or CHF. No pleural effusion or pneumothorax. The heart size cannot be readily assessed. Mediastinal contour appears stable with atherosclerotic calcifications along the aortic knob. Bony structures are intact. IMPRESSION: Basilar atelectasis without definite signs of pneumonia. CT ABD/PELVIS [2122-1-27] 1. No evidence of perforation, abscess formation or hemorrhage. 2. Severe liver cirrhosis with splenomegaly and large amount of ascites. 3. Filling defect is seen in the distal SMV, at the portal confluence, the proximal portal vein, and the TIPS stent, representing thrombosis or flow artifact. Evaluation is limited due to lack of multiphase imaging. Further workup with Doppler liver vascular ultrasound should be considered. TIPS [2122-1-28] 1. Occluded TIPS shunt. This is a change from the ultrasound of [2121-11-19]. The portal veins and hepatic veins are patent. 2. Massive ascites. 3. Cirrhotic appearing liver with splenomegaly. PORTABLE ABDOMEN [2122-1-29] 1. Technically limited study, demonstrating diffuse gaseous distention of the large and small bowel, most consistent with ileus. 2. Apparent nasogastric tube should be advanced for optimal positioning. CXR [2122-1-29] The patient is severely rotated, distorting anatomical landmarks. The examination was performed at near expiration, which crowds and dilates pulmonary vasculature and is responsible for severe left lower lobe atelectasis. The upper lungs are probably clear. Cardiac size cannot be assessed. Left subclavian dialysis catheter ends in the right atrium. Nasogastric tube passes to the lower esophagus and out of view. There is no pneumothorax.

The family opted to focus on comfort. He was transitioned to CMO and passed away at 6:30 am on [2122-2-2]. . # Sepsis - Abdominal pain is present on review of systems; diagnostic paracentesis reveals a WBC count of >4000 with >90% polys consistent with either SBP or secondary bacterial peritonitis (given repeated taps), but no perforation or abscess seen on CT abdomen. Lipase and LFTs are within normal limits making other abdominal sources unlikely. Alkaline phosphatase is elevated which could be secondary to TIPS. There is concern that a clot in the TIPS could be infected. He was treated empirically initially with vanc and zosyn, the vancomycin was changed to daptomycin for VRE given hx of VRE in peritoneal fluid in [2119] and chronic thrombocytopenia (so avoid linezolid). The fluid culture revealed GNRs. He did receive albumin for SBP despite already having HRS and being on HD. The fluid culture grew e.coli which was resistant to zosyn, which he had been treated with, and he was transitioned to ceftriaxone, which the e.coli was sensitive to. . # Hypotension: blood pressure was in the range of SBP 80s at night; then increased during the day to the 100s. He was started on midodrine but was unable to take this secondary to his ileus, which was causing him not to absorb PO medications. At time of transition to CMO, the patient's blood pressure was 60/40. . # Ileus: the patient developed a severe ileus, which was thought to be [1-22] his peritonitis and his ascites. An NGT was placed with relief of nausea and vomiting, and he was discharged with this tube to hospice for intermittent suctioning. At time of [Month/Day (2) ], less than 500cc per day was being aspirated, which was mostly the food that he was eating for comfort. He did stool very small amounts even with lactulose. . # Anemia: the patient has had an acute hematocrit drop from 28 to 21. The patient has baseline anemia, likely secondary to kidney disease and liver disease; prior iron studies consistent with anemia of chronic disease. In the setting of acute hematocrit drop, concern for bleed; no signs of acute bleeding despite history of varices. No signs of hemorrhage on CT abd. . # Cirrhosis - Secondary to EtOH. He is no longer drinking. Listed for transplant. Complicated by esophageal varices, hepatic encephalopathy, and refractory ascites s/p TIPS that is no longer patent. Continued lactulose and rifaximin. On prophylactic bactrim for SBP, which was held during his treatment of SBP. He did receive a therapeutic paracentesis with removal of 10L of fluid on [2122-1-28]. After that point, although he was in pain with his distension, the patient could not have another paracentesis as his hypotension was preventative. . # End stage renal disease - Hemodialysis for hepatorenal syndrome in setting of cirrhosis. The patient missed HD on day of admission (Monday, [1-27]) so recieved an extra session on [1-28], in which 1L was removed. Sevelamer and calcium acetate were continued. . #IDDM - continue home lantus and sliding scale. . #. Ventral Hernia: Per records this is not reducible but not changed from prior. No evidence of incarceration/strangulation. This has been one of the patient's most significant sources of discomfort and embarassment for several years however he has been told that he is not a candidate for surgical repair until after he has a liver transplant. . #.

He presented to [Hospital6 17032] today after being referred there when routine laboratory draw revealed abnormalities. His potassium was found to be 6.1, and creatinine 4.7. Blood pressure there was noted to be 83/42. He was given an albuterol nebulizer, 1 amp of calcium gluconate, 10 units of regular insulin, 1 amp of D50, and 30 mg of kayexalate, as well as 500 cc of normal saline. . In the ED here at [Hospital1 18], initial vital signs were: blood pressure of 91/54, heart rate of 76, respiratory rate of 22, and oxygen saturation of 90%. A right femoral central line was placed for initiation of pressors, and he was started on neo. He was given 1 gram of vancomycin and 4.5 grams of zosyn for possible urinary tract infection. He received 1 gram of calcium gluconate, 1 amp of D5, and 10 units of regular insulin as well for hyperkalemia. Renal and cardiology were consulted. . On the floor, he reports he has to move his bowels, but otherwise denies any shortness of breath or other complaints. Of note, has highly variable BP readings depending on position, alternating in rapid sequence from 70-110's systolic. . Of note, he was recently admitted to [Hospital1 18] cardiology service from [2147-6-10] until [2147-6-16] after being transferred from [Hospital6 27369]. At that time, he had acute on chronic renal insufficiency, as well as hypotension. He was diuresed with a lasix drip, which was switched to torsemide. EP also followed the patient, and his ICD was re-programmed to allow for native conduction, with consideration of up-grade to [Hospital1 ]-ventricular pacer in future, as this was deferred given improvement in his symptoms with diuresis. His blood pressure was noted to be 70-100 systolic during that admission with normal mentation. Elevated creatinine was felt to be secondary to poor forward flow, and LFT elevations secondary to congestion. . He states that since his admission, he has been at rehabilitation. He reports he gained about 10 pounds since discharge, though he's not sure how. On [2147-6-28] he presented to [Hospital6 17032] for hyperkalemia, worsening renal function, and hypotension.

In MICU, he was diuresed on lasix drip and noted to have baseline SBPs 70s-80s in acute on chronic systolic congestive heart failure with EF 20%. With diuresis he was able to maintain SBPs off pressors in 80s and his renal function improved. His infectious work-up was negative. He was transferred to cardiology floor on a lasix drip for diuresis. Overnight [Date range (1) 28625], he was reported to be agitated and intermittently hypoxic to 80s after which he would awaken and be startled. He was transferred to the MICU for higher level of nursing care. Assessment there suggested multiple factors including adverse reaction to sleep aide (ambien), high dose ciprofloxacin (for empiric UTI treatment), haldol and hypoxia in setting of known sleep apnea not on BiPAP. With observation and cessation of medications the patient's mental status improved to baseline and he was no longer hypoxic. Ambien was felt to be the primary cause and should not be given again; avoid in the future. . He was seen by vascular surgery and podiatry for his severe peripheral vascular disease and chronic ulcers. No current inpatient managment was felt necessary at that time given CHF exacerbation. However, during agressive diuresis of the patient, Mr. [Known lastname 28624] developed cellulitis of his right lower limb. Due to the edema and poor blood supply to the legs given his vascular disease, the pt developed an infection of the skin and healing ulcers on his feet. He was given broad spectrum IV antibiotics to treat the infection (vancomycin, cipro and flagyl x7days). . In addition, given the development of infection, vascular surgery performed an angiography in an attempt to improve blood flow to in order to facility abx treatment. The legs showed significant blockages which require correction; however, vascular surgery was not able to perform any stenting due to patient movement. Thus, vascular surgery arranged to use general anesthesia for the procudure balloon or stenting of the leg blood vessels; tentatively vascular surgery will perform this on [7-18]. . Although there was as strong preference by all care providers involved that the patient remain at [Hospital1 18] while completing IV antibiotics and awaiting surgery, the patient was adament that he be moved closer to home to [Location (un) 25576] to complete IV antibiotics until the time of the vascular intervention. Arrangements were made and the pt was transferred to [Location (un) 28626]. . PLEASE NOTE THAT AMBIEN HAS BEEN ADDED TO PT'S LIST OF ALLERGIES.

Discharge Disposition: Extended Care Facility: [Hospital6 25759] & Rehab Center - [Location (un) ] Discharge Diagnosis: Primary Diagnosis: Congestive Heart Failure Acute renal failure Secondary Diagnosis: Hyperkalemia (high potassium, electrolyte imbalance) Coronary artery disease COPD diabetes mellitus Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Discharge Instructions: You came to the hospital because you had gained 10 pounds and were experiencing with difficult breathing and substantially increased swelling of you lower legs. You were found to have dnagerous electrolyte imbalances, worsening kidney function and very low blood pressure. This was an exacerbation of your chronic heart failure and there was concern for infection. . While in the hospital, your symptoms worsened and you were transferred to the ICU and received antibiotics. Although there was concern for infection, tests were negative. After further investigation it was felt that Ambien (a medication you received) caused significant unexpected adverse side effects in you. We recommend that you never take Ambien again and have listed it as a medication [Location (un) ] in your record. Please be sure to alert you PCP and other doctors of this [Name5 (PTitle) ]. . To treat your heart failure you received medications to remove excess fluid that had accumlated in your body. With the removal of this fluid your symptoms improved. However, due to the edema and poor blood supply to your legs due to vascular disease, you developed an infection of the skin and healing ulcers on your feet. You were given IV antibiotics to treat this infection. You responded well but require continued treatment of the infection with IV antibiotics. . In addition, vascular surgery performed an angiography and other tests of you blood vessels in you legs which showed significant blockages which require correction; if these are not corrected you risk continued life threatening infections of the legs and ampulation. Correction of these blockages was attempted while you were here but was not success in the setting of only partial sedation during the procedure. Thus, vascular surgery will be arranging to use general anesthesia (complete sedation) for the procudure to open the leg blood vessels; you have an appointment with vascular surgery on [7-18] to further address this issue. . Given your strong preference to be closer to your family, you were transferred to an outside care facility ([Location (un) 25576]) once you stablized in order to continue the removal of the remaining fluid you had accumulated and the complete your course of IV antibiotics for the treatment for your infection. .

Admission Date: [2133-4-8] Discharge Date: [2133-4-29] Date of Birth: [2133-4-4] Sex: F Service: Neonatology HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: Baby girl [Known lastname 29469], twin I, was a 36-week, 2795-gram [Known lastname 43610] product of a 30-year-old gravida 4, para 0 to 2 mother with serologies O positive, antibody negative, Rubella immune, rapid plasma reagin nonreactive, hepatitis B not detected, group B strep status negative. Delivery was by cesarean section secondary to spontaneous rupture of this twin and breech positioning. There were no septic risk factors. Baby girl [Known lastname 29469] was in the Newborn Nursery when she was noted to have a dusky episode associated with apnea for which she was admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION ON PRESENTATION: Weight was 2795 grams (50 percentile), length was 19 inches, 48 centimeters (50-75 percentile), and head circumference was 32.5 cm (50 percentile). This was a well-developed [Known lastname 43610] given gestational age. Her anterior fontanel was soft and flat. Her face was symmetric. Her nares appeared patent. Her oropharynx was moist and pink with palate intact. Her tinea were well formed. Her neck was supple without pits or masses. Her heart was in a regular rate and rhythm without murmurs. Her lungs were clear to auscultation bilaterally. Her abdomen was soft, nontender, and nondistended. She had no hepatosplenomegaly. This was [Initials (NamePattern4) ] [Last Name (NamePattern4) 33542] [Initials (NamePattern4) ] [Last Name (NamePattern4) 43610]. The anus was patent. She had no hair [Hospital1 ] or sacral dimple on her back. All extremities were intact. She had equal movement. Tone was appropriate for gestational age. SUMMARY OF HOSPITAL COURSE BY ISSUE/SYSTEM: 1. RESPIRATORY ISSUES: Baby girl [Known lastname 29469] remained on room air throughout her hospital stay. She had dusky episodes, primarily associated with feedings. She would choke and desaturate as low as the 40s, and her heart rate dipped as low as 59 beats per minute. Throughout her hospital course as her feeding coordination improved, these episodes became less frequent. Her last bout was on [2133-4-22]. She has subsequently done well without any noted apnea or bradycardia. She is taking oral intake well without notable color changes during feedings. The parents are comfortable with her feeding. 2. CARDIOVASCULAR ISSUES: Baby girl [Known lastname 29469] has been cardiovascularly stable with the exception of bradycardias associated with feedings per above. 3. FLUIDS/ELECTROLYTES/NUTRITION ISSUES: Baby girl [Known lastname 29469] has been maintained breast milk 20 and Enfamil 20 throughout her hospital course. She is currently feeding by mouth ad lib, exceeding 120 cc/kg per day. Weight on discharge was 3325 grams, length 54 centimeters, head circumference 35 centimeters. 4. GASTROINTESTINAL ISSUES: Baby girl [Known lastname 29469] was treated with phototherapy for hyperbilirubinemia. She reached a peak bilirubin of 15.8 and a direct bilirubin of 0.2 on [4-9]. She was treated with phototherapy for two days. Her last bilirubin on [4-13] was 9.2/0.4. 5. HEMATOLOGIC ISSUES: Baby girl [Known lastname 54939] initial complete blood count was notable for a white blood cell count of 9.4, with a differential of 0 bands and 44 segmented neutrophils. Her initial hematocrit was 49, and her platelets were 393. She received no transfusions during her admission, and her most recent hematocrit was 33.8 on [2133-4-20]. 6. INFECTIOUS DISEASE ISSUES: An initial blood culture was sent on admission on [4-8] which was negative. She was treated with ampicillin and gentamicin for 48 hours which was discontinued after the cultures were negative. She showed no further signs of infection. 7. NEUROLOGIC ISSUES: Given the apnea and dusky episodes, she had an initial head ultrasound which showed bilateral choroid plexus blood. A repeat head ultrasound done on [4-20] was normal. Otherwise, she has been neurologically stable throughout her hospitalization. 8. SENSORY/AUDIOLOGY ISSUES: Hearing screening was performed with automated auditory brain stem responses, and she passed on [2133-4-8]. 9. OPHTHALMOLOGIC ISSUES: Eye examination was not necessary due to her gestational age. 10. PSYCHOSOCIAL ISSUES: [Hospital1 188] Social Work was involved with the family. The contact social worker is [Name (NI) 4457] [Name (NI) 36244], and she can be reached at telephone number [Telephone/Fax (1) ]. CONDITION AT DISCHARGE: Stable. DISCHARGE DISPOSITION: To home.

Ms. [Known lastname 47342] explained that over the year prior to admission she had noticed progressive weakness and fatigue, with difficulty swallowing and speaking, increased napping, and new-onset dyspnea. Her weakness seemed to develop over her entire body simultaneously, with no discernable pattern of spread. Symptoms are somwehat worse as the day goes on, and are not relieved by resting. She reports increasing dysphagia (solids>liquids) with a 20lb weight loss since the start of [2149]. She cannot drink through a straw. She has also had to start using a walker since [Month (only) 404]. Prior to begining to use the walker, she had three falls in the preceding year, including one in which she fractured her left wrist. Additionally, Ms. [Known lastname 47342] reports that she now naps much of the day, and as a consequence has been sleeping less at night--with trouble both falling asleep and staying asleep. She sleeps an average of 5 hours qNight. Ms. [Known lastname 47342] [Last Name (Titles) ] that shortly before she began to feel week, she was hospitalized for PNA, in [2149-2-17] (I have been unable to find mention of this in her online medical record). She thinks she initially recovered from that but is unsure she ever returned to baseline before she began developing her current symptoms. On ROS, she admitted to dyspnea on exertion (such as taking a shower or getting dressed), and occasional dysuria, but denies chest pain, palpitations, cough, fevers/chills, abdominal pain, n/v/d, constipation, hematuri, melena and hematochezia. On Neuro ROS, she admitted to occasional diplopia (horizontal), which seems to come and go each day, as well as gait-unsteadiness, but denied vertigo and fasciculations.

Based on her clinical exam (with neck flexor/extensor weakness, bifacial weakness, on diplopia on upgaze, shortness of breath with sentences all of which worsened over the course of the day), she was diagnosed with myasthenia [Last Name (un) 2902]. Because of her tenous cardiac health and the need for anticoagulation, she was initially treated with 2 course of IVIG and mestinon with mild improvement of her symptoms. After consulting with her primary cardiologist, it was determined that the potential benefits outweighed any risks for clot, so her coumadin was discontinued and she completed plasmapheresis x 5. Her anti-AchR antibodies and anti-Musk antibodies were negative, suggesting that she has seronegative myasthenia [Last Name (un) 2902]. She had EMG performed and Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 1206] felt that there was a strong suggestion of myasthenia. She intermittently had labile blood pressures and required uptitration of her blood pressure medication. In addition, she developed sustained atrial fibrillation after the 2nd plasmapheresis cycle and was started on amiodarone on the recommendation of cardiology. She returned to sinus rhythm. Psychiatry and Palliative Care were consulted when she expressed that she no longer wanted to continue with aggressive care. She had developed a pneumonia and urinary tract infection. A family meeting was held and she opted to not continue with aggressive care. She had taken out her NG tube and did not want it replaced. We offered her oral medications as she could tolerate, but she opted to go home with hospice. A prescription for cefpodoxime was given on discharge. She was given scripts for SL morphine and Ativan.

Discharge Instructions: Ms. [Known lastname 47342] you were admitted to the neurology service after you had months of progressive weakness, slurred speech, fatigue and double vision. You were diagnosed with myasthenia [Last Name (un) 2902] and treated for myasthenia [Last Name (un) 2902] crisis initially with IVIG and then with plasmapheresis. Although you showed some initial improvement, your course was complicated by difficulty with respirations and you required intermittent BiPAP for support. Pulmonary was involved and recommended tracheostomy with mechanical ventilation but you were opposed to this. We'd asked palliative care and psychiatry to be involved and you felt strongly that you did not wish to continue aggressive measures. You were made CMO and hospice was arranged.

Workup included a MRI scan at [Hospital3 9717] which showed a right subdural hematoma in the right cerebral hemisphere and right frontal subdural hygroma. The patient was transferred to [Hospital1 188] for further management. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: Right nephrectomy in [2106], left nephrectomy in [2093], status post DVT with SVC filter placement, she is HIT positive, breast cancer, MI in [2106], hepatitis A and B. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION ON ADMISSION: Her temperature is 98.1, heart rate is 89, BP is 157/72, respiratory rate is 18, saturation is 96% on room air. Awake, alert, and oriented x 3 with no facial droop. Pupils are equal, round and reactive to light and accommodation. EOMs are full. Cardiovascular with a regular rate and rhythm. Chest is clear to auscultation bilaterally. The abdomen is soft, nontender, and nondistended. Positive bowel sounds. Extremities reveal no edema. Muscle strength is [4-21] except for the left upper extremity which is [3-22]. HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was admitted to the ICU for close neurologic observation. The renal service was consulted due to her need for hemodialysis. The patient was evaluated by the neurosurgical service and felt to require bur hole drainage of the subdural hematoma. The patient was seen by Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 1327] and prepared for surgery. On [2107-3-14] the patient underwent a right frontal parietal craniotomy bur hole drainage of a subdural hematoma without intraoperative complication. Postoperatively, the patient had no complaints of headache. She reported improved dexterity in the left hand. Vital signs were stable, and her strength was [4-21] in all muscle groups. She had no drift. Her face was symmetric. Her dressing was clean, dry, and intact. She was transferred to the regular floor on postoperative day 1. Her subdural drain was removed. She had a repeat head CT which showed good evacuation of the subdural. She continued to be followed by the renal service and undergo every other day renal dialysis. She was evaluated by the physical therapy and occupational therapy service and felt to be safe for discharge to home with home PT and OT. Her condition was stable, and a repeat head CT prior to discharge showed a stable condition of the evacuation of her subdural hematoma. DISCHARGE FOLLOWUP: She was discharged on [2107-3-18] with followup for staple removal on Monday, [2-18], at 10:00 a.m. and followup with Dr. [First Name (STitle) ] in 1 month for a repeat head CT.

Admission Date: [2164-1-6] Discharge Date: [2164-1-11] Date of Birth: [2164-1-6] Sex: F Service: NB HISTORY: Baby Girl [Known lastname 3659] twin #1 was born at 35-6/7 weeks gestation to a 31 year-old gravida III, para I, now III woman with noncontributory past medical history and prenatal screens of O positive, DAT negative, HBSAG negative, RPR nonreactive, rubella immune, GBS negative. Antenatal history: This is a twin gestation with an estimated date of delivery of [2164-2-4] who delivered by cesarean section for multiple gestation under spinal anesthesia. Rupture of membranes occurred at delivery yielding amniotic fluid. There was no intrapartum fever or clinical evidence of chorioamnionitis. The infant was vigorous at delivery, orally and nasally bulb suctioned, dried, had Apgars of 8 and 9 at one and five minutes respectively. Was transferred to the regular nursery where she developed grunting respirations at 4 hours of age and was then transferred to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit for further care. Birth weight of 2140 grams which is 10th to 25th percentile. Length of 43 cm which is 10th to 25th percentile, head circumference of 31.5 cm, which is 25th to 50th percentile. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION ON ADMISSION: Shows preterm infant with examination consistent with gestational age between 35 and 36 weeks gestation, had stable vital signs. Head, eyes, ears, nose and throat: Head anterior fontanelle was soft and flat, nondysmorphic, intact palate. No nasal flaring. Chest: There were no retractions. Mild intermittent grunting respirations, good breath sounds bilaterally. No adventitious sounds. Cardiovascular: Well perfused, normal rate and rhythm. Femoral pulses were normal. Normal S1, S2, no murmur. Abdomen soft, nondistended, no organomegaly, no masses. Bowel sounds active, patent anus. Genitourinary: Normal female genitalia. Central nervous system: Active, alert, respirations. Responsive to stimuli. Tone was appropriate for gestational age and symmetric. Normal suck, root, gag, grasp. Skin normal. Musculoskeletal normal. Straight spine. Hips intact. Intact clavicles. SUMMARY OF HOSPITAL COURSE BY SYSTEM: 1. RESPIRATORY: The infant had transitional grunting, flaring and retracting on admission which resolved quickly thereafter. Has remained stable on room air since admission to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit not requiring any supplemental oxygen. Has had no issues with apnea or bradycardia but does have intermittent brief periods of oxygen saturation drift to the mid 80s and comes back up on her own. 2. CARDIOVASCULAR: The infant has remained hemodynamically stable with no signs of a murmur, normal blood pressure and heart rate. 3. FLUID, ELECTROLYTES AND NUTRITION: Enteral feedings were initiated on the newborn day. No IV fluids were ever initiated. The baby has been mostly p.o. feeding. For the past 48 hours has been all p.o. feeding. Is presently taking 140 ml per kilo per day of breast milk or Enfamil 20 with iron. Occasional p.g. feeds were required in the first couple of days of life. No electrolytes have been measured. 4. GASTROINTESTINAL: The infant has mild hyperbilirubinemia with a peak bilirubin level of 10.9/0.3 on [2164-1-11]. She has required no phototherapy thus far. She is recommended to have a repeat bilirubin level drawn tomorrow on [2164-1-12]. CBCs and blood cultures were not done on admission so no hematocrit testing was measured. She is pink and well perfused. 5. INFECTIOUS DISEASE: There is no history of sepsis risk factors so CBC and blood cultures were not drawn on admission. She has not been treated with any antibiotics and has shown no signs or symptoms of sepsis. 6. NEUROLOGY: The infant has maintained grossly normal neurologic examination for gestational age. 7. SENSORY: Hearing screen should be done prior to discharge from the hospital to home. It has not been done at this time. 8.

There is a discrepancy in renal size with the right kidney measuring 7.6 cm, and the left measuring 11.8 cm. There is no hydronephrosis or renal mass. Doppler assessment of blood flow to both kidneys was severely limited on the right, but there is a suggestion of a parvus tardus waveform. The peak velocity within the artery was 12.5 cm. The renal vein is patent. The left kidney was better evaluated, and the upstrokes appear more brisk with higher peak velocities. IMPRESSION: Small right kidney with findings most consistent with chronic right renal artery stenosis. MRI/MRA may be performed if there is unresponsive hypertension.

Brief Hospital Course: Patient was unresponsive on admission s/p cardiac arrest of unclear etiology with estimated down time of 20-35 minutes. Clinical picture and the need for aggressive repletion of electrolytes were most consistent with a starvation/alcoholic ketoacidosis resulting in electrolyte abnormalities which led to cardiac arrhythmia and arrest. The patient had no brain stem function on admission other than initially breathing over the ventilator. She was cooled to 34 degrees celsius for 48 hours and then rewarmed in an attempt to preserve brain function. After the rewarming the patient did not develop any further signs of improving neurologic status and was no longer breathing over the ventilator, she continued to require pressors to maintain adequate blood pressure. After a complete neurologic exam once all electrolytes had been corrected and the patient was normothermic, the patient was declared brain dead on hospital day 3. The patient's brother was the next of [Doctor First Name ] and he elected to donate her organs. The NEOB then coordinated further work up and evaluation for organ donation.

No interval change to known subcapsular and intraparenchymal hematomas without CT findings to suggest superinfection. No new fluid collections identified. 2. Resolution of small left pleural effusion with probably stable right pleural effusion, which displaced posterior and medial components. Moderate amount of interstitial septal thickening involving the visualized aerated right lower lobe may reflect interstitial pulmonary edema, however, in conjunction with metastatic left lower lobe pulmonary nodules, lymphangitic carcinomatosis cannot be excluded. 3. Stable left adrenal lesions and post-surgical changes without evidence of bowel obstruction. Brief Hospital Course: Patient was admitted to the [Hospital1 18] on [11-25]. Vancomycin and Zosyn were started. A non-contrast CT abdomen/pelvis was obtained given the patient's renal disease and showed a limited evaluation of the liver parenchyma due to lack of intravenous contrast. Expected post-radiofrequency ablation findings in the right lobe of the liver, a small, nonobstructing left anterior abdominal wall hernia, enlarged, nodular left adrenal gland unchanged since [2184-1-16], multiple enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes unchanged since the prior study, prior pancreatectomy, splenectomy, partial gastrectomy, partial hepatectomy and right adrenalectomy. Overnight on hospital day 1 he was febrile to 103.1 with a significant leukocytosis. He was continued on antibiotics and cultures were sent. On [11-28] RUQ ultrasound was obtained and demonstrated a 6.4 cm heterogeneously echoic lesion within the right lobe of the liver, likely segment VIII, consistent with prior radiofrequency ablation site, a rounded, 1.3 cm vascular area within the radiofrequency ablation site which is suggestive of a pseudoaneurysm. The pseudoaneurysm appeared to arise from an intrahepatic branch of the right hepatic artery. The portal vein was patent. ID service was consulted and patient was switched to meropenem. On [11-28] patient developed worsening abdominal/back pain and became diaphoretic. He was hypotensive with BP 82/70 and relative hypoxia with oxygen saturation of 90 %. He received bolus of NS with good response and was transferred to the ICU for closer monitoring. Patient also had a 4% drop in HCT and was transfused 1 unit of PRBCs without appropriate rise in hematocrit. Central line was placed. 2 more units of PRBCs were administered. Given ultrasound findings, patient was administered bicarb and Mucomyst in preparation for angiography and coil embolization of pseudoaneurysm which he underwent on [2184-11-29]. At the time of the procedure, the pseudoaneurysm appeared to be successfully obliterated with coiling. Post procedure patient developed oliguric renal failure with creatinine peaking around 7. Nephrology service was consulted and he was managed conservatively. He did not require dialysis. Renal failure subsequently resolved with a concomitant fall in creatinine and marked increase in urine output. During this time he continued to have a leukocytosis between 25-38,000 and continued to periodically spike temps. A non-contrast CT scan of the abdomen was obtained on [12-2] and showed increasing size of hyperdensity in the right liver lobe adjacent to the RF ablation and pseudoaneurism embolization site, likely represents presence of a hematoma. Large subcapsular hematoma, compressing the hepatic parenchyma. Since he continued to spike fevers in presence of leukocytosis, there was concern for superinfected hematoma. However, because of the extent of liver damage and size of hematoma, it was deemed unsafe to tap fluid as this could potentially negate the tamponade effect of the capsule and may result in exsanguination. He was managed conservatively and seemed to be stable. Overnight on [12-5] into [12-6] patient developed an acute drop in hematocrit with relative hypotension. [Name2 (NI) ] was transfused 2 units of PRBCs. An urgent RUQ u/s was obtained and showed that the pseudoaneurysm has decreased from [2184-11-29], and there is now a small thrombus. The vessel remained patent, however. Given these findings, patient was once again administered bicarbonate and Mucomyst in preparation for angiography. He underwent repeat coil embolization of pseudoaneurysm on [12-7]. Once again patient developed oliguric ATN approximately 36 hours post procedure. Although fluid intake was minimized he progressively developed respiratory problems with desaturation when supine. CXR revealed a large right sided pleural effusion. This was tapped and drained on [12-9] with successful drainage of 1300 cc of dark, blood-tinged exudative fluid. Initial Gram stain showed 4+ PMNs, but no bacteria and subsequent cultures were negative. ATN subsequently resolved and he started auto-diuresing with improvement in respiratory status. Follow-up U/S on [12-10] showed complete obliteration of pseudoaneurysm. His hematocrits were stable. Leukocytosis persisted as did his fevers. Antibiotics were continued. Superinfection of liver hematoma continued to be of high concern but collection was not drained given high risk of the procedure. He was transferred out of the SICU on [12-14]. TPN was stopped. Kcals were done showing a daily kcal count of ~1300. Nutritional supplements were given. Meropenum was continued for Klebsiella bacteremia (at referring hospital) and subcapsular hematoma. Klebsiella was pan-sensitive. ID recommended at least 3 weeks of treatment using Ertapenum until [1-5]. A picc line was placed on [12-15]. [Last Name (un) ] followed for management of diabetes. He received iv lasix for significant lower extremity edema. On [12-15] a non-contrast CT was repeated showing stable large subcapsular and intraparenchymal hematomas, without evidence of active extravasation. Follow chest x-rays revealed a stable right sided pleural effusion. Psychiatry was consulted to evaluate for depressed mood, tearfullness, and problems with sleep. It was felt that he was dysphoric and recommendations included avoidance of ambien. Ativan was recommended prn at HS. Outpatient psychiatry follow up was discussed with the patient who agreed to think about it. On [12-19], he continued to spike temperatures of 101 to 101.9. A repeat U/A was negative. Blood and urine cultures are negative to date. The possibility of a feeding tube was discussed but he declined this and agreed to eat more and over the last 3 days of his hospital stay he has steadily increased his po intake. He continues to have low grade fevers. A CT scan obtained on [2184-12-21] revealed a stable subcapsular hematoma. He is tolerating a diabetic diet and ambulating regularly. He is discharged home in good condition with VNA to administer IV antibiotics for 2 more weeks. He has appropriate follow up appointments scheduled.

CMP showed hypernatremia of 150, Cl of 112, BUN 33, with rest of BMP in normal range, Lactate was 2.1, and valproate level was 27. ABG was checked and pH was 7.51, pCO2 of 28, pO2 of 72. Given tachypnea and hypoxemia as well as high work of breathing, patient was intubated with fentanyl and midazolam for sedation. Noted was food in oropharynx/larynx per ED resident on intubation. His CXR showed a questionable aspiration pneumonia as well as possible LLL process. CT scan showed bilateral PE and likely pneumonia. He was empricially provided with levofloxacin, metronidazole, and vancomycin. His blood pressure dropped to 70/40 just before transfer to the ICU. After an 3 additional 3L NS SBP increased to 100's.

CTAB but intermediate aeration Abd: NT, ND, soft Ext: no peripheral edema Skin: no rashes or lesions noted; area around suprapubic cath is c/d/i without erythema or discharge Pertinent Results: IMAGING: CT ANGIO CHEST [2185-6-24] - TECHNIQUE: CTA of the chest was performed per department protocol. Oblique sagittal and coronal reformats were available for review along with the axial images. CT OF THE CHEST: There are small pulmonary arterial filling defects in the subsegmental bronchi supplying the lingula (4:71) as well as additional filling defect in the subsegmental right lower lobe bronchi (4:87). An additional area of segmental pulmonary embolus is seen in the apical segment of the right upper lobe (4:33). There is no evidence of right heart strain. Within the right middle and upper lobe there are extensive nodular opacities as well as several more gound glass appearing areas of opacity (4:61 and 4:27). There is extensive atelectasis of the right lower lobe (4.83) with relative [Name (NI) 71062] peripheral area within the collapsed lung. No definitive arterial supply with embolus is seen in this area; however in the setting of other emboli and configuration of this finding, it is concerning for infarct. There is no pleural or pericardial effusion. In the left hemithorax, there is a large hiatal hernia with stomach and GE junction above the diaphragm. This causes compressive atelectasis (4:102) on the adjacent lung. The patient is intubated with endotracheal tube terminating approximately 4 cm from the carina. An nasogastric tube is seen in the esophagus but does not reach the GE junction or the stomach. Subdiaphgramatically, gallstones are seen. The aorta and the great vessels appear unremarkable. No suspicious lytic or sclerotic lesions are seen within the bones. IMPRESSION: 1. Right middle and upper lobe nodular opacities as well as several areas of ground-glass opacity consistent with infectious process. 2. Bilateral pulmonary emboli in the segmental and subsegmental levels with no evidence of right heart strain. There is an area of hypoenhancement within the atelctatic right lower lobe along the periphery concerning for infarction. 3. Complete right lower lobe atelectasis. 4. Large diaphgramatic hernia. 5. Cholelithasis. BILATERAL LOWER EXTREMITY VENOUS ULTRASOUND [2185-6-24] - Grayscale and Doppler son[Name (NI) ] of the left common femoral, left superficial femoral, left popliteal vein show normal compressibility, flow and augmentation. Note is made of duplicated left superficial femoral veins. The left calf veins show normal flow. Grayscale, color, and spectral Doppler examination of the right common femoral vein shows normal compressibility and flow. Note is made of duplicated right superficial femoral veins. There is partially occlusive thrombus noted within one of the right proximal superficial femoral veins which is of unclear chronicity. The distal superficial femoral vein, the entire length of the other superficial femoral vein, popliteal vein appear patent. The right posterior tibial veins were patent. The right peroneal veins were not visualized. IMPRESSION: 1. Partially occlusive thrombus noted within one of the two right proximal superficial femoral veins which is of unclear chronicity. Right peroneal veins were not visualized. 2. No DVT in left lower extremity. ECHO [2185-6-24] - Echocardiographic Measurements Results Measurements Normal Range Left Ventricle - Ejection Fraction: >= 55% >= 55% Findings LEFT VENTRICLE: Normal LV wall thickness, cavity size, and global systolic function (LVEF>55%). Suboptimal technical quality, a focal LV wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. RIGHT VENTRICLE: Normal RV chamber size and free wall motion. AORTIC VALVE: Mildly thickened aortic valve leaflets. No AR. MITRAL VALVE: Mildly thickened mitral valve leaflets. Mild (1+) MR. PERICARDIUM: There is an anterior space which most likely represents a fat pad, though a loculated anterior pericardial effusion cannot be excluded. GENERAL COMMENTS: Suboptimal image quality - poor echo windows. Suboptimal image quality as the patient was difficult to position. Suboptimal image quality - ventilator. Conclusions Technically suboptimal study. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size, and global systolic function are normal (LVEF>55%). Due to suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened (?#). No definate aortic regurfgitation is seen. The mitral leaflets are mildly thickened. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. There is an anterior space which most likely represents a very prominent fat pad. IMPRESSION: Very suboptimal image quality. Normal biventricular cavity sizes with preserved global biventricular systolic function. Mild mitral regurgitation. CXR [2185-6-26] Compared with [2185-6-25] at 5:46 a.m., an NG tube is again noted. It overlies the lower chest, but appears to overlie the gastric fundus, which is elevated due to a diaphragmatic herniation, as seen on [2185-6-24] CT scan. If clinically indicated, a lateral view could help to confirm this. Again noted is ET tube in satisfactory position above the carina. Prominence of right paratracheal soft tissues is noted, but may be accentuated due to patient rotation. There is focal opacity in the right upper zone and patchy opacity in the right lower zone medially. These findings are better depicted on [2185-6-24] CT scan. The lung apices are excluded from the film. Electronic battery pack is noted overlying left iliac crest. CXR [2185-7-6] FINDINGS: In comparison with the study of [7-5], the orogastric tube has been removed. Other monitoring and support devices remain in place. Persistent opacification at the left base with progressive clearing of opacification at the right base. No vascular congestion. CXR [7-8] Portable: IMPRESSION: Increased opacification in left base with some volume loss. CXR [7-10] Portable: IMPRESSION: Possible area of loculated fluid with trapped air verses pneumothorax verses atypical appearance of stomach bubble near the left CPA. Follow up upright chest radiograph with the patient swallowing 15 cc of barium just prior to imaging should help rule out these etiologies CXR [7-11] PA/Lat: CONCLUSION: There is no significant pneumothorax. ECG [7-17]: Sinus rhythm. Borderline low QRS voltage. Possible inferior wall myocardial infarction of indeterminate age. The lateral lead Q waves are likely not representative of a myocardial infarction but rather septal Q waves. Compared to the previous tracing of [2185-7-8] the sinus rate has decreased by 20 beats per minute with no other diagnostic change.

He has been relatively stable on the floor while undergoing treatment for UTI. # UTI- Currently has suprapubic catheter in setting of neurogenic bladder and was found to have GNR's 10-100K in urine on [2185-7-3]. Species on [7-3] was Alcaligenes achromobacter. Patient complained of need to void urine on [2185-7-11] several times which was new for him. His suprapubic catheter was changed [2185-7-13] by urology. Levofloxacin was started on [2185-7-11] per [2185-7-3] sensitivities; for total 14 day course (last day is [7-24]). # Acute Pulmonary Emboli: Patient previously on Coumadin. [2185-6-24] CTA showed bilateral pulmonary emboli in the segmental and subsegmental levels without evidence of right heart strain. There was no clear cause for why he developed a PE. There was an area of hypoenhancement within the atelectatic right lower lobe along the periphery concerning for infarction. Increased coumadin from 1mg po to 2mg po daily on [2185-7-13]. Further increased coumadin from 2mg po to 4mg po daily on [2185-7-16]. His INR has been difficult to manage, likely in setting of antibiotics, malnutrition, Levothyroxine. On discharge, his Coumadin has just been restarted at 3mg after he has been supratherapeutic for the past 2 days. As an outpatient, he should have his INR followed (check in 48-72hrs). If his INR <2, he should be bridged with Lovenox 60mg q12h due to high risk for thromboembolism. On discharge, he is on room air, slightly tachypneic and tachycardic but has been stable. # Tachycardia/Hypotension: Related to above. Heart rates have been in 80-110's. SBP <80s in the ICU requiring pressors. Likely due to known pulmonary emboli with infection. Patient does not currently have sx of infection, so sepsis is less likely cause. It may be from pain, since patient is relatively unable to communicate. # Schizophrenia- Difficult to evaluate mental status. No evidence of responding to internal stimuli. Baseline over past few months [First Name8 (NamePattern2) ] [First Name4 (NamePattern1) 3504] [Last Name (NamePattern1) ] is that he is able to communicate pain/discomfort but does not have capacity. He is mostly lucid but answers questions in mumbles and broken statements. Patient had court date for guardianship on [2185-7-19] which was approved. He sometime says inappropriate comments but not frequently. Patient was ambulatory in [Month (only) 205] with assistance per previous [Hospital1 1501]. We continued his Depakote, Risperdal, and Remeron. # Pneumonia, MRSA: Treated with 8 day course of Vanc/Zosyn for bilateral patchy infiltrate and found to be MRSA positive on bronchial washings. Patient was hypotensive and hypoxic requiring intubation and pressors for 10 days in MICU. Extubated [2185-7-6]. [2185-7-6] CXR: Persistent opacification at the left base with progressive clearing of right base without vascular congestion. Later CXR cleared, he has finished treatment. # Hypothyroidism: Levothyroxine started this admission for TSH 8.6 in setting of acute septic shock. TSH 7.8 on [2185-7-9]. He should continue levothyroxine 25mcg po daily. He will need outpatient follow up of TSH in 1 month [2185-8-8] # FEN: IVF prn, replete electrolytes prn, ground solids, if ever needs tube feeds, needs post-pyloric b/c hiatal hernia TRANSITIONAL ISSUES - Continued on Levofloxacin until [7-24] - Guardianship obtained during admission. - Will need outpatient psych follow-up - He will need close management of coumadin with goal INR [12-24] indefinitely. He should have a bridge with Lovenox 60mg q12 if ever INR<2. Discharge Coumadin dose is 3mg. - please check TSH and free T4 on [2185-8-8]. Patient started on levothyroxine [2185-7-3] for low Triiodothyronine Thyroxine (T4), Free 0.78* and TSH 8.5. Medications on Admission: Preadmission medications listed are correct and complete.

Discharge Instructions: Mr. [Known lastname 71063], you were admitted to the [Hospital1 827] on [2185-6-24] for shortness of breath at your nursing facility. You were found to have pneumonia with MRSA in your lungs in addition to multiple blood clots in your lungs. This required you to be in the intensive care unit on a ventilator for over 1 week and requiring medicine to keep your blood pressure normal. After you had several days of antibiotics for your pneumonia, you were taken off the ventilator. Due to your lung clots, you will need to be on coumadin (a blood thinner) indefinitely. We have continued to change your dose depending on your INR (which needs to be between [12-24] to help prevent blood clots). You will be returning to your nursing home. Please follow up with your primary care physician. Followup Instructions: Please follow up with your Primary Care physician at [Name9 (PRE) *] where you stay.

Admission Date: [2167-11-5] Discharge Date: [2167-11-11] Date of Birth: [2119-2-7] Sex: M Service: MEDICINE Allergies: Patient recorded as having No Known Allergies to Drugs Attending:[First Name3 (LF) 4891] Chief Complaint: Lower GI bleed Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: EGD [2167-11-5] Small bowel capsule study Blood Transfusion History of Present Illness: 48 y.o. male with hyperlipidemia and past bleeding duodenal ulcer presenting with dark stools and hematochezia 4 days. He has had four episodes of GI bleeding since earlier this year. In [2167-5-23], he had several days of dark stools with some mixed blood; upper and lower endoscopy revealed no active bleed. A similar episode occurred in [2167-7-23], when upper/lower endoscopies and capsule study were all negative for active bleeding. More recently, he had dark tarry stools last month, for which he again sought care at [Hospital 1474] Hospital. Per patient report, upper endoscopy revealed a bleeding duodenal ulcer that was both clipped and cauterized. Colonoscopy revealed hemorrhoids and a single polyp, that was removed (pathologic diagnosis unknown). The patient does not think any of his upper endoscopies were accompanied by biopsies. He has not been treated for H. pylori infection. Since his procedures in [Month (only) ] through this past weekend, the patient did not have any recurrences or other GI complications. On Monday [11-2], he had recurrent dark, tarry stools. He saw his PCP, [Name10 (NameIs) 1023] ordered labs notable for Hct of 37 (per patient report). For the next several days, he continued to have dark tarry stools, but no other significant symptoms. This morning, he awoke at 4:00 am with palpitations and mild dyspnea, and had another bowel movement with dark stools and some blood on the toilet paper. Denies abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or BRBPR. He went to the ED at [Hospital ] Hospital, where he received 800 cc NS and IV famotidine for guaiac positive stool. There, an NG lavage was negative. He was transferred to [Hospital1 18] for further evaluation. In [Hospital1 18] ED, the patient reported lightheadedness, dizziness, and dyspnea (with movement). Endorsed nausea but denied abdominal pain. His initial VS: 97.7 96 124/73 18 99% RA. Hct 18.5. The patient was given 1 liter NS and IV pantoprazole. A second liter of NS was started. ECG showed sinus tachycardia at 96 bpm. He was seen by GI who recommended obtaining OSH records for prior endoscopic reports, and repeating EGD here. He was cross-matched for two units but no RBC's were transfused, prior to being sent up to MICU. Upon arrival to the MICU, the two units of packed RBCs were ordered and transfusion was initiated.

Pathology Report DIFFICULT CROSSMATCH AND/OR EVALUATION OF IRREGULAR ANTIBODIES Study Date of [2167-11-6] DIAGNOSIS, ASSESSMENT AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Mr. [Known lastname ] had a diagnosis of anti-K antibody at outside hospital which was confirmed at [Hospital1 18]. Anti-K antibody is clinically significant and capable of causing hemolytic transfusion reactions. In the future, Mr. [Known lastname ] should receive K-antigen negative products for all red cell transfusions. Approximately 91% of ABO compatible blood will be K-antigen negative. A wallet card and a letter stating the above will be sent to the patient. EGD [2167-11-5]: Small hiatal hernia No bleeding site noted Previous duodenal resection with end to side anastomosis of the distal bulb Otherwise normal EGD to third part of the duodenum Abdominal Xray [2167-11-7]: IMPRESSION: 1. Nonspecific bowel gas pattern without evidence of obstruction. Unusual appearance in the upper abdomen with dense material, question heterotopic ossification iatrogenic material. Clinical correlation is requested. If there is no prior imaging through this area, then a CT scan would be recommended for further assessment. 2. Focal bone lesion in the left proximal femur. Dedicated left proximal femur radiographs are recommended for further assessment. CT Abdomen/Pelvis w/contrast [2167-11-7]: IMPRESSION: 1. Abnormal ossification involving the anterior abdominal wall communicating with the costochondral junctions of the lower ribs and sternum is in keeping with heterotopic ossification after either surgery or trauma. 2. No evidence of small or large bowel obstruction. 3. Multiple matted small bowel loops abutting the lower anterior abdominal wall suggests adhesions. Chest (PA & LAT) [2167-11-7]: The right hemidiaphragm is elevated. Allowing for this, heart size is borderline. The aorta is minimally unfolded and slightly calcified. No CHF, focal infiltrate, or effusion is identified. Small bowel capsule study [2167-11-10]: PROCEDURE INFO & FINDINGS: 1. Suture material at the duodenal bulb. 2. Normal small bowel. No active bleeding site or ulcer (s) seen. Brief Hospital Course: 48 y/o M with multiple episodes of GI bleeding over past year, with duodenal ulcers and polyps identified, presenting with guaiac positive stools and significant hematocrit drop over past 72 hrs. 1. GI Bleed: Pt initially presented with melena and was found to have Hct of 18. He was transfused a total of 4 units in the ICU and Hct thereafter remained stable at 27-29. He was seen by the gastroenterology team who an EGD that was unremarkable. The GI team subsequently performed a small bowel capsule study that also did not reveal any site of intra-abdominal bleeding. He was maintained on IV PPI gtt initially at the ICU, then transitioned to IV PPI [Hospital1 ] on the floor and eventually to po PPI [Hospital1 ] by the time of discharge. Pt did not complain of further episodes of melena during hospital admission and was monitored on telemetry without any significant events. He was advised to follow-up with his outpatient gastroenterologist on discharge. 2. Fever: Upon transfer from ICU to floor, pt developed fevers peaking at 102. At the onset of his fevers, he complained of abdominal pain, distention, and difficulties passing flatus. Abdominal x-ray was performed that did not show obstruction. Pt was started on IV cipro, flagyl, and vancomycin for possible intra-abdominal infection. A CT abdomen revealed old changes from his prior surgery but no acute intra-abdominal process. A CXR and UA was also negative for any source of infection. Urine culture and two sets of blood cultures were negative. (Of note, two sets of blood cultures were still pending on discharge.) He improved markedly on the IV antibiotics. WBC decreased from 13 at time of fevers to 5 by time of discharge. Fevers, abdominal pain, and obstipation resolved and he was transitioned to po cipro and flagyl. He was told to continue the po antibiotics at home for a total course of 10 days, for empiric coverage of bacterial translocation in the setting of GI bleeding. 3. CT Findings: A CT abdomen was performed to evaluate for intra-abdominal process that could be causing pt's fevers and abdominal pain. The CT was negative for acute processes but revealed several incidental findings that pt confirmed were due to his prior bowel surgery. These included abnormal ossifications of the anterior abdominal wall and multiple matted small bowel loops consistent with adhesions. He was also noted to have a proximal femoral lesion suspicious for fibrous dysplasia which per patient was due to a bone biopsy he had had in the past. He also had an IVC filter with struts extending beyond the lumen of the inferior vena cava. This was discussed with an interventional radiologist who did not feel that this required intervention. 4. Iron Deficiency Anemia: Pt had hx of iron deficiency anemia and was taking daily ferrous sulfate supplements. His ferrous sulfate was temporarily discontinued while he was in the hospital to better distinguish between melena and dark stools and because he complained of constipation. He was discharged back on his home ferrous sulfate with the addition of a stool softener. 5. Hyperlipidemia: No acute issues. He was continued on his home simvastatin. Medications on Admission: -Simvastatin 40 mg PO daily -Protonix 40 mg PO daily -Ferrous Sulfate 325 mg PO BID Discharge Medications: 1. simvastatin 40 mg Tablet Sig: One (1) Tablet PO DAILY (Daily). 2. ciprofloxacin 500 mg Tablet Sig: One (1) Tablet PO Q12H (every 12 hours) for 5 days.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: It was a pleasure taking care of you at the hospital. You were admitted with dark stools and found to have a very low blood count. You were admitted to the intensive care unit where you received a blood transfusion. Your blood counts rose with the transfusion and you were transferred to the general medicine floor where you complained of abdominal pain and were found to have a fever. An x-ray of the abdomen and a CT scan of the abdomen did not show any acute process. You were started on IV antibiotics for your fever and abdominal pain and improved significantly. You were transitioned to two oral antibiotics that you should continue to take for five more days (until Monday [2167-11-16]). For work-up of your dark stools, an EGD was performed that was unremarkable. You also underwent a small bowel capsule study that also did not reveal any significant findings. You should follow-up with your gastroenterologist for continued monitoring of your symptoms. The following changes were made to your medications: 1) Pantoprazole was increased to 40mg twice a day 2) Ciprofloxacin 500mg every 12 hours was started (continue until [2167-11-16]) 3) Metronidazole 500mg every 8 hours was started (continue until [2167-11-16]) 4) Colace 100mg twice a day was started. This is a stool softener because your iron can cause constipation. Please continue your iron supplements.

No complications. ECG [2190-10-14]: Rapid regular tachycardia, rate 110. There is complete right bundle-branch block. Atrial activity is not visible on the current tracing. There is marked ST segment depression in leads V2-V6. Compared to the previous tracing of [2188-3-25] the complete left bundle-branch block and the ST segment depressions are new and consisetnt with acute ischemia. ECG [2190-10-15]: Sinus tachycardia. The P-R interval is prolonged. Left axis deviation. Right bundle-branch block with left anterior fascicular block. Compared to the previous tracing of [2190-10-14] the rate is slower and ST segment depression is no longer present. TTE [2190-10-15]: The left atrium is mildly dilated. No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The left ventricular cavity size is normal. There is mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with distal inferior hypokinesis. There is no ventricular septal defect. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal.

There is a right caudate infarct of undeterminate age. If anacute infarct is suspected, MRI is recommended for further evaluation. 2. Dense opacification of the left maxillary sinus with calcification may represent fungal infection. Unilateral Upper Extremity Ultrasound [2190-10-16]: IMPRESSION: No evidence of right upper extremity DVT. Studies Pending at Discharge: Blood Cultures from [10-14] and [10-15] remained negative at discharge but will be held for a full week each. Brief Hospital Course: This is an 86 yo M with CAD s/p CABG, BPH admitted following left total knee arthroplasty revision which was complicated by significant intra-operative and post-operative blood loss and hypotension. He was initially admitted to the Medical Intensive Care Unit and his hospital course was notable for acute blood loss anemia requiring 12 units pack red blood cells in total as well as cardiac biomarker elevation related to increased demand from anemia, hypotension, and tachycardia. #Revision of left knee arthroplasty/Intra- and Post-Operative Acute Blood Loss Anemia/Hypotension: Patient suffered 1.2L blood loss in the OR and had intraoperative hypotension. He was admitted to the Medical Intensive Care Unit where he was transfused to a hematocrit of >30 which required 12 units in total including in the OR. Following hemodynamic stabilization the patient was transferred to the medical floor where betablockers and diuretics were restarted. He was also started on prophylactic anticoagulation with no signs of active bleeding. #CAD s/p CABG/NSTEMI: Following surgery the patient developed an elevation in his cardiac biomarkers with elevation in TnT but without elevation in CK-MB index. It was felt this was reflective of potential fixed obstruction with increased cardiac demand from hypotension, anemia, tachycardia, and withholding of home beta-blockers. Cardiology was consulted who felt there was no further intervention required. An echocardiogram was obtained which showed only a focal distal inferior hypokinesis which was not felt to represent an acute coronary syndrome as detailed above. EF was preserved. Patient was continued on aspirin, betablocker, and statin when hemodynamically stable. #Chronic diastolic heart failure: Initially beta-blockade and diuretics were held, but these were restarted when the patient became hemodynamically stable and when the patient became mildly volume overloaded following stablization of bleeding. He was restarted on home diuretic therapy with furosemide 40 mg a day with good improvement. #Encephalopathy: Patient developed encephalopathy post-operatively felt to be due to a combination of hypotension, anesthesia, and narcotics for pain control. He failed a speech evaluation in this setting and was made NPO. His encephalopathy cleared prior to discharge and he was cleared by speech and swallow for a ground solid and nectar-thickened liquid diet. #Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy: Terazosin was held in setting of hypotension but restarted prior to discharge. Pt voided after removal of foley catheter without incident. #CODE: FULL #Disposition: Patient was discharged to rehab with Orthopedics and cardiology follow-up. Transitional Issues: -Pt was previously on no limitation of diet and will need further speech and swallow evaluation to be advanced back to full liquid diet without limitations. -Pt will continue physical therapy and knee kept in immobilizer until cleared by orthopedics.

Discharge Disposition: Extended Care Facility: [Hospital3 1107] [Hospital ] [Hospital 1108] Rehab Unit at [Hospital6 1109] - [Location (un) 1110] Discharge Diagnosis: Primary Diagnoses: failed L total knee replacement Post-operative bleeding complicated by acute blood loss anemia Type 2 (demand) non-ST elevation myocardial infarction Secondary Diagnoses: Aortic stenosis Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Discharge Instructions: You were admitted to the hospital after your left total knee replacement revision. You had a significant amount of blood loss during surgery and required blood transfusions in the Intensive Care Unit. You were noted to have stress on your heart, but did not have a true heart attack. You also had a CT scan of your head which did not show any bleeding, but did show evidence of a possible old stroke. Therefore, it is important that you follow up with your primary care physician and cardiologist once you are discharged from rehab to see if you require any modifications to current medication regimen or if you require any additional testing. You also had a speech and swallowing evaluation prior to discharge to rehab which showed some difficulties with swallowing, likely due to weakness. You were put on thickened liquids and ground foods in order to help prevent aspiration of food into your lungs, which can cause respiratory problems. Please make sure to make follow up appointments with Orthopedics and cardiology. Your rehab will help make a follow up appointment with your PCP after discharge. In addition: 1. Please return to the emergency department or notify your physician if you experience any of the following: severe pain not relieved by medication, increased swelling, decreased sensation, difficulty with movement, fevers greater than 101.5, shaking chills, increasing redness or drainage from the incision site, chest pain, shortness of breath or any other concerns. 2. Please follow up with your primary physician regarding this admission and any new medications and refills. 3. Resume your home medications unless otherwise instructed. 4. You have been given medications for pain control. Please do not drive, operate heavy machinery, or drink alcohol while taking these medications. As your pain decreases, take fewer tablets and increase the time between doses. This medication can cause constipation, so you should drink plenty of water daily and take a stool softener (such as colace) as needed to prevent this side effect. Call your surgeons office 3 days before you are out of medication so that it can be refilled. These medications cannot be called into your pharmacy and must be picked up in the clinic or mailed to your house. Please allow an extra 2 days if you would like your medication mailed to your home. 5. You may not drive a car until cleared to do so by your surgeon. 6. Please keep your wounds clean. You may shower starting five (5) days after surgery, but no tub baths or swimming for at least four (4) weeks. No dressing is needed if wound continues to be non-draining. Stitches will be removed at your first f/u appt. 7. Please call your surgeon's office to schedule or confirm your follow-up appointment in 2 weeks. 8. Please DO NOT take any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs such as celebrex, ibuprofen, advil, aleve, motrin, etc). 9. ANTICOAGULATION: Please continue your lovenox for four (4) weeks to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (blood clots). [Male First Name (un) ] STOCKINGS x 6 WEEKS. 10. WOUND CARE: Please keep your incision clean and dry. It is okay to shower five days after surgery but no tub baths, swimming, or submerging your incision until after your four (4) week checkup. Please place a dry sterile dressing on the wound each day if there is drainage, otherwise leave it open to air. Check wound regularly for signs of infection such as redness or thick yellow drainage. Staples will be removed at your follow up appt in two (2) weeks. 11. VNA (once at home): Home PT/OT, dressing changes as instructed, wound checks. 12.

He initially presented with a sore throat, dysphagia and anorexia who on fiberoptic laryngoscopy found a large supraglottic mass. A biopsy was done and final pathology confirmed poorly differentiated SCC stage [Doctor First Name 690]. He was admitted to an OSH on [2111-5-13] specifically for a G-tube placement due to this large subglottic mass. His course was c/b ETOH withdrawal requiring benzos prn, then developed PNA with cultures revealing Psedomonas. He subsequently developed respiratory failure and was initially intubated on [2111-5-16], extubated on [2111-5-25]. However, he had to reintubated by ENT on [2111-5-28] with question of difficulty reintubating due to supraglottic mass. The pt underwent tracheostomy on [2111-6-1]. . He was initially treated with zosyn for his pseudomonal pna, then switched to Ceftaz; Pseudomonal culture sensitivities returned on [6-8] and abx were switched to Cefapime and Gent prior to transfer. . His WBC began to rise from 11-->25-->32 with the development of diarrhea which was C-diff + and initially treated with PO vanco then switched to PO flagyl. . His HCT dropped (28.6 TO 26.9) of unclear etiology and was transfused 2 UPRBC on [6-1], hct increased to 33.4. . He started chemotherapy with Carbotaxol x 1 on [6-4] and was called out to the medicine service on [6-5]. While on the medicine service he became tachypneic and hypoxic with O2 sats 70% and transferred back to the MICU. There are no records of CTA or chest CTs done during this hypoxic event. . He was transferred to [Hospital1 18] for further management of b/l IJ clots R>L and possible XRT to shrink tumor burden.

IMAGING: CT head [2111-6-9] - No acute intracranial hemorrhage or masses is seen. - Large bilateral posterior cervical triangle masses, likely metastatic, necrotic lymph nodes. . CT chest [2111-6-9] - Extensive necrotic lymphadenopathy of the supraclavicular region, with apparent occlusion of both internal jugular and subclavian veins. - Moderate-to-large right pleural effusion and small left pleural effusion, with associated atelectasis involving the entire right lower lobe. - Biapical opacities may reflect radiation treatment if there is such a history. - Ground-glass opacities throughout the remainder of the lungs are nonspecific, possibly reflecting edema or infection. A more focal opacity in the lower right upper lobe suggests pneumonia. - Axillary lymphadenopathy and borderline mediastinal nodes. - Extensive subcutaneous edema. . Chest Xray [2111-6-9] - Multifocal opacities consistent with pneumonia. - Bilateral pleural effusions, right greater than left. - Tracheostomy tube in appropriate position. . MRA of neck [2111-6-12]: - No evidence of arterial occlusion or invasion identified by large masses in the neck. - There is no evidence of occlusion of the superior vena cava seen. - Both jugular veins are occluded, the left vein is occluded in the upper third, while the right vein is occluded by tumor near the skull base. - Partial visualization of both subclavian veins with findings suspicious for invasion and extension of tumor through the right internal jugular vein to the junction of right subclavian vein. . ECHO [2111-6-10] - EF > 55% - Normal study. Preserved biventricular cavity sizes with normal global and regional systolic function. Brief Hospital Course: 61 yo M with large supraglottic SCC here for XRT, s/p trach for resp. failure, now on trach collar. Also with pseudomonal PNA, R pleural effusion, and C-diff infection. . # Supraglottic SCC with potential compression of bilateral IJs on MRI. Pt is s/p 1 dose carboplatin/paclitaxel prior to transfer and was temporarily neutropenic, but now resolved after G-CSF. Heme-onc is following and restarted carboplatin/paclitaxol on [6-30] with goal of improving radiotherapy efficacy. He is also s/p 15 doses XRT since arrival in [Hospital Unit Name 153], for a total of 16 treatments per Rad-onc. He had an almost immediate reaction consisting of facial swelling and erythema after the 1st dose, which is now resolved. He has had good response to the XRT with significant decrease in size of his neck mass. Pt is receiving supportive care with pain control with Dilaudid & Fentanyl prn though has not required pain control recently. There is a plan for family meeting with heme-onc, rad-onc, and medicine team today or tomorrow. . # Respiratory: Pt is currently satting well on trach collar with FiO2 of 35%. Pt had pseudomonal PNA (s/p 12-day course of meropenem + gentamycin) and large R plueral effusion. Also treated for stenotrophomonas in his sputum (10-day course of bactrim). He was previously on intermittent ventilation for temporary desats thought to be related to worsening of pleural effusion off ventilation. He has not needed ventilation in past 2 weeks. CXR shows large R pleural effusion with some increased organization/consolidation; this has been stable. Effusion is likely due to lymphedema and will most likely reaccumulate if drained. He continues to have secretions that require suctioning despite good cough, though suctioning frequency has greatly decreased. Antibiotics were completed on [6-28] however sputum from [6-28] contained >25 PMNs and grew 4+ pseudomonas, now resistant to meropenem. No other signs of infection-- afebrile, no leukocytosis, no change in O2 requirement. He did have copious white trach secretions (req suction q1h) at the time but now has greatly decreased. He was started today ([7-1]) on cipro for tracheobronchitis. Finally, he receives albuterol/atrovent MDIs through trach. . # RUE DVT, seen on US: - Cont. heparin gtt, bridging to coumadin - continue coumadin 5mg qhs . # Endocrine issues. Hyponatremia/hyperkalemia FeUrea = ~45%. Differential diagnosis: SIADH (pulmonary, SSC,) vs. adrenal insufficiency vs. hypothyroidism (all not very much likely since they have been present for a long time and hyponatremia now new). Random cortisol level relatively high, and now off dex since [6-15] --> suggests adrenal insufficiency unlikely. TFTs show elevated TSH, but nl T4, T3 more consistent w/sick euthyroid (free T4 low) which is likely to have been present chronically and not the primary source of hyponatremia, further more not strikingly hypothyroid to cause hyponatremia. Most likely diagnosis is therefore iatrogenic due to IV meds and diuresis without adequate Na replacement. Decision was made to give patinent a 1 week break from XRT, as took heavy toll on patient, especially w/ ICU setting. Pt is scheduled for follow up next week with Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 3929] to revisit if continued XRT should be pursued. Meeting must be attended with patient's brother. . # Goals of care: Social work and [First Name8 (NamePattern2) 2270] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 1764] from palliative care are involved in this case with the family, discussing long-term plans and goals. Pt's baseline mental status is unclear; however, he occasionally has more lucid intervals and appears dissatisfied with being in hospital, stating "get me out of here." At the same time, he expresses wishes to continue radiation/chemo for disease palliation. He also appears to have a depressed affect. Psych has been consulted to determine competency and address depression. . # HTN: BP well-controlled on metoprolol 12.5 [Hospital1 ]. At home, he is on metoprolol 25 TID. . # Anemia: This is likely due to myelosuppression from prior chemo as his retic count was 0 on admission. HCT currently stable/increasing. He has not required PRBC transfusions at [Hospital1 18]. . # C-Diff colitis: Pt is on Flagyl po until 2 weeks after completion of other antibiotics ([6-26]). He is on C-Diff precautions. . # MS changes: He is oriented to name and date. This is likely delirium. He is on low-dose Haldol prn agitation, avoiding BZDs as possible. He is also on supplemental thiamine, Folate & MVI for ETOH history. Needed to be maintained on restraints while in ICU, has been 1:1 on the floors w/o further aggitation. . # CODE: DNR Medications on Admission: -Acetaminophen 650mg q4hr prn -Albuterol Neb Q6HR -Albuterol inh Neb q2hr prn -Aspirin 81 mg daily per G-tube -Cefepime 1gm -enoxaparin 70mg [Hospital1 ] -Fentanyl patch 25mcg q3d -folic acid 1mg daily -gentamicin 80mg daily -ipratropium neb q6hr -lorazepam 1 q4hr prn anxiety -Metoprolol 25mg TID -MVI -Nicotine transdermal 14mg/24hr patch qdaily -omeprazole 20mg NG daily -psyllium powder, oral 1 teaspoonful PO TID -Thiamine tab 100mg daily -vancomycin oral solution 250mg PO q6hr -dexamethasone 8mg [Hospital1 ] through [6-6] Discharge Medications: 1.

The procedure was without complications. She was closely monitored in the PACU and then transferred to the ICU for ongoing gas exchange issues related to baseline emphysema and diastolic heart failure. She was transferred to the floor for further monitoring on POD #2 in stable condition. We continue to monitor her breathing pattern and gas exchange diuresing her with lasix to maintain a negative fluid balance to treat her acute on chronic diastolic CHF exacerbation post surgery. Her diet was gradually advanced. She worked with physical therapy who recommended rehab. On POD # 7 she had an episode of hypotensive causing ischemic colitis which was treated with fluid/albumin. By POD #9 her abdominal pain resolved and she started to tolerate on a regular diet. She was discharged to rehab on POD # 13 in stable condition. Follow-up has been arranged with Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] in one week. 1.Peripheral Arterial Disease sp bilateral ileofemoral endarterectomies with patch angioplasty and bilateral iliac stents on [2191-3-3] for disabling claudication. Dopplerable LE pulses. Groin incisions are clean, slightly red and should be covered with DSD until removal at followup appointment next week. 2.Diastolic Congestive Heart Failure She had acute exacerbation of her chronic congestive heart failure after her procedure which we closely monitored and treated with lasix as needed. She is on her home dose of lasix 40mg daily. Her PREOP WEIGHT is 77.1 kg. TODAY'S WEIGHT is 85.7 kg. We have been unable to diurese secondary to hypotension and ischemic colitis. 3.Ischemic Colitis On POD #7 she had an episode of hypotension to the 70's after lasix administration. At that time, our goal was 1 liter negative a day. Shortly after this episode, she had vomitting with diarrhea with LUQ abdominal pain. Her lactate level was 3.1 and her wbc rose to 23.3 from 7.6 earlier in the day. She was aggressively resusitate her with fluid and albumin. An Abd CT did not show any overt mesenteric ischemia. Flexible sigmoidoscopy, to evaluate mucosa, was negative for ischemia. Cdiff was also negative. She was started on vanco/cipro/flagyl. She had continued improvement with return of her WBC to normal and resumption of a regular diet by POD #9. 4.Hypertension BP now 120's/80. WE HAVE NOT RESTARTED HER HOME ANTIHYPERTENSIVES/CARDIAC MEDS of amlodipine 5mg, diltiazem HCl XR 360mg or moexipril 15mg secondary to relative hypotension (90s systolic) in the setting of presumed bowel ischemia. Please contine to monitor and restart medications as tolerated. 5.Chronic Kidney Disease Admission Cr. 2.4. Today's Cr is 1.3, likely related to holding diuresis and ACE. 6.Emphysema 02 sats are 94% on 2L which is her baseline at home. 7.Atrial Fibrillation HR 80s. Coumadin restarted post procedure.

Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: EGD - black sloughening mucosa with bleeding on contact suggesting ischemic esophagitis. History of Present Illness: This is an 89 yo woman with mechanical fall. She slipped in her sock, hit her left shoulder on a towel rack, then landed on her right knee, with right knee and hip pain. In the ED was very orthostatic->SBP to 68/35, HR unknown, and this was asymptomatic. She has had multiple falls over the past week, sounding mechanical in nature but she is hazy on the details. She notes pain at her left shoulder and right knee. She has no other complaints. She denies fevers, chills, nausea, vomitting, abdominal pain, melena, brbpr, chest pain, cough, sob, dysuria, hematuria, rash. She does acknowledge constipation, last BM [10-17]. In the ED VS: 97.9 88 102/60 18 99% RA. She was given 2L NS, tylenol and ibuprofen. She was guaiac negative in the ED. ROS: 10 point review of systems negative except as noted above.

Brief Hospital Course: MICU course: This is an 89 yo woman with mechanical fall found to be orthostatic and anemic. 1. Ischemic esophagitis: Patient was transferred to the [Hospital Unit Name 153] for hematemesis that began while she was on the floor. She was seen by GI right after arriving to [Hospital Unit Name 153] and underwent EGD which showed evidence of ischemic esophagitis (see EGD report). Patient was put on IV PPI [Hospital1 ] and sucrafate QID, HOB elevated. She required a total of 5u pRBC, and her hematocrit stabilized for 2 days prior to transfer back to the floor. She had no more episode of hematemesis since arriving to [Hospital Unit Name 153], and was started on clear liquids on [10-21]. Per GI, her diet was advanced to soft on [10-24] and then to full on day of discharge. She tolerated this without difficulty. She should not receive any NSAID medications. HCT prior to d/c was 33. 2. Fall: Sounds mechanical in nature but given profound orthostasis in ED (asymptomic) this may possibly be contributing. Also, given her subsequent hematemesis and baseline anemia, bleeding likely contributing. Physical therapy was re-consulted following transfer out of the ICU. Blood pressures were stable on the floor but she will need further PT rehab. 3. Orthostasis: unclear what degree related to anemia/bleeding, dehydration, medication effect (amitriptyline, trazadone both can cause orthostasis) or autonomic dysfunction. Trazodone was discontinued and Amitriptyline was decreased to 50mg. 4. Anemia: Likely secondary to chronic GI bleeding. Pt has refused colonoscopy in the recent past; family remains hesitant to pursue further testing at this time. Hct remained stable following transfer out of the ICU and was >34 on [10-24]. It is recommended this be repeated in [2-4] weeks time. 5. Peripheral vascular disease: Aspirin was stopped in the setting of her hematemesis; she was continued on pentoxifylline. 6. A TSH was sent while in the ICU. It was elevated at 11. It is recommended this be repeat tested in [2-4] weeks at her PCPs office. 7. Hypokalemia. This was repleted several times and she was discharged on daily KCL 10Meq.

Discharge Disposition: Extended Care Facility: [Hospital ] Rehab Discharge Diagnosis: Upper GI Bleed Ischemic esophagitis H/o NSAID gastritis Elevated TSH Discharge Condition: Improved Discharge Instructions: You were hospitalized for bleeding in the esophagus. You were found to have low blood pressure on admission to the hospital, which undoubtedly caused you to have the fall at home, and which led to changes in perfusion to the esophagus causing it to bleed. You were given a total of 5 units of red blood cells to replace the blood you lost. You were found to have an elevated TSH which may indicate you have an underactive thyroid gland. Tests of this sort during hospitalization can be inaccurate, and so I recommend that you have this test repeated within the next 1 to 2 weeks. You should have your blood count and potassium checked then, too. You should not take NSAID medications. Your potassium level was running low in the hospital and so you were begun on a daily replacement postassium tablet. Followup Instructions: Provider: [First Name4 (NamePattern1) 1575] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 1576], MD Phone:[Telephone/Fax (1) 1579] Date/Time:[2118-12-19] 1:30 I recommend you call Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] to have another appointment made for 1 to 2 weeks from now to review the events of this hospitalization and to follow-up on repeat blood tests. If you are at rehab during this time, then CBC, potassium, and TSH, Free T4 should be drawn at that facility and results should be called into Dr.[Name (NI) 96157] office for review and further instruction.

Admission Date: [2130-9-14] Discharge Date: [2130-9-18] Date of Birth: Sex: F Service: The patient expired on [2130-9-18]. HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a 56 year old white female who was transferred to the [Hospital1 190] from the [Hospital3 8834] earlier in morning of admission when she was talking on the telephone with her son and suddenly complained of a severe headache and fell to the ground. She did experience loss of consciousness and there were reported seizures lasting approximately five minutes during that time with reported decorticate posturing. EMS was called and arrived at the scene and transported the patient returned to consciousness and was following commands with no apparent neurologic deficit. A CT scan showed subarachnoid hemorrhage with diffuse bleeding in all cisterns. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: 1. Hypertension. 2. Diabetes mellitus. MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION: 1. Zestril. 2. Glyburide. ALLERGIES: No known drug allergies. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: On physical examination, she was awake and oriented times three but somnolent with blood pressure 150/80, respiratory rate 12, heart rate 110 beats per minute and she was afebrile. The pupils are equal, round, and reactive to light and accommodation. Extraocular movements were full. The tongue was midline. There was no facial asymmetry. Shoulder shrug was positive. Extremity strength was [5-27] in all muscle groups bilateral left and right. Sensory was intact to light touch grossly and reflexes were symmetric bilaterally. HOSPITAL COURSE: Due to the clinical findings, the patient was admitted with the diagnosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage and was considered neurologically stable at that time. A lengthy discussion between family and Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 1132] ensued at which time the family agreed to go forward with diagnostic angiography and further treatment and the patient therefore had diagnostic angiogram and was subsequently taken to the operating room later on [2130-9-14], where under a general endotracheal anesthetic, a right craniotomy and clipping of an anterior communicating artery aneurysm was performed by Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 1132]. A ventricular drain was placed at the beginning of the procedure, and the patient was returned to the Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit for postoperative recovery. The patient was initially noted to be doing well, awakened from the surgery, was opening eyes to voice and following commands on the first postoperative day. By the second postoperative day, the patient was awake, alert and oriented to person and time and following two step commands with grip and strength 5/5 bilaterally. The patient's neurologic condition remained stable until early on [2130-9-18], the patient was noted to have become somnolent and less responsive. Again, after discussion with the family, decision was made to take the patient back for angiographic study and possible treatment if vasospasm was seen. The patient was taken to the angiogram suite on the afternoon of [2130-9-18], where a diagnostic angiogram was performed and vasospasm was noted and Papaverine was administered. However, there was a small amount of extravasation of the angiographic dye noted during the procedure and shortly thereafter the patient's systolic blood pressure rose markedly as well as intracranial pressures rising to 160 millimeter of water. The procedure was immediately halted and the patient was taken to the Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit after replacement of the ventricular drain was done and successfully placed. Upon lengthy discussion with the family including the husband and son, the family expressed a wish that no further heroic or supportive measures be considered other than comfort measures and due to the family wishes and in concert with the clinical condition, the decision was made to place the patient on comfort measures only status at approximately 9:00 p.m. on [2130-9-18], and the patient subsequently was found to have fixed and dilated pupils with no heart or respiratory activity and the patient was pronounced dead at 10:40 p.m. on [2130-9-18]. The immediate cause of death was respiratory failure secondary to subarachnoid hemorrhage. The family was informed of the expiration of the patient. They declined autopsy and expressed their gratitude for the care which the patient had received.

He drinks 1 quart of vodka several days a week and last drink was around [6-12] or [6-13]. He ruled out with 2 sets of negative cardiac enzymes and a non-ischemic ekg, and was evaluated by cardiology. CXR neg for acute process. His chest pain was felt likely due to bronchitis. During the hospitalization he continued to exhibit withdrawal symptoms so was started on CIWA. He required 20mg IV lorazepam during the initial 6 hours of withdrawal and had respiratory distress, cyanosis, and stridor. During intubation he was noted to have a vocal cord polypoid mass and is thus being transferred to [Hospital1 18] for further evaluation. Over the past 24 hours he has required 12mg IV lorazepam. He is also on levofloxacin for unclear reason. VS prior to transfer were 100.7, 87, 120/72, 31, 95%. Upon arrival to the [Hospital1 18] MICU, patient is intubated, on propofol, and mildly agitated. Vent settings are: AC, TV 500, RR 16, PEEP 5, FiO2 40%. He failed multiple weaning attempts and ultimately underwent tracheostomy. After tracheostomy he was discovered to have a pulmonary embolism on [6-21]. Subsequent laryngoscopy showed severe laryngeal edema. Past Medical History: - OSA s/p removal of adenoids and uvula - ?

Hospital course complicated by etoh withdrawal. Patient reportedly developed stridor. ENT evaluated patient with CT scan and felt he may have had a mass around the cords. He was sent to [Hospital1 ] for further evaluation. ACTIVE ISSUES: # Respiratory failure/Hypoxemia/Laryngeal Edema: Patient was intubated at OSH for respiratory distress. On tubated there was a polypoid lesion on his vocal cords and he was sent to [Hospital1 18] for evaluation. Here, ENT performed direct laryngoscopy which revealed edematous cords. He was given a short course of steroids. Extubation was attempted however resulted in recurrent respiratory distress requiring reintubation. ENT felt that he has [Last Name (un) 50614] edema which will resolve in a few weeks. He underwent tracheostomy placement. *PATIENT WILL REQUIRE DOWN-SIZING OF TRACH DURING WEEK OF [7-8] PER IP RECOMMENDATIONS.* He was also need follow up with Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] in ENT. # Ventilator Associated Pneumonia: Patient was treated with 7 days of antibiotics while in patient. He remained afebrile. # Pulmonary Embolism: While intubated, patient was difficult to ventilate. A CT was performed which revealed multiple PEs. He was started on lovenox. After all procedures are completed, he should transition to Coumadin for at least a 6 month course unless the mass is found to be a solid tumor, in which case there is some evidence to use LMWH for solid tumors over coumadin. # Alcohol Dependence, withdrawal: Given thiamine, folic acid, multivitamin. Ciwa scale was maintained while in the ICU # Clostridium difficile Colitis: dx made on [2120-6-28]. Was started for 10 day course of PO Flagyl and will be completed on [2120-7-8]. # Anxiety: Patient started on clonazepam for anxiety. Will likely need to wean this prior to discharge from facility.

This occurred in the setting of a osteomyelitis [1-14] an ankle fx. She was sent back to her Rehab center following this admission and there she developed dyspnea and anuria. Her Cr rose to 4.8 and she had a leukocytosis at 16. She was admitted and noted to have troponins in the 3 and was seen to have a NSTEMI but was not anticoagulated [1-14] the feeling that her presentation represented a subacute event. She required a NRB during her early admission that was quickly weaned but, considering her fluid overload, renal was consulted and decided to proceed to HD. During this time, she also was noted to have a UTI that was initially treated w/ levo/flagyl (b/c of a presumed aspiration PNA at this time as well) but this was later changed to linezolid when it grew VRE. On the floor, she had an episode of unresponsiveness for which a code blue was called. She was initially pulseless but returned to NSR w/ CPR. She was intubated during this code during which she was also noted to have a 12b run of VT. . During MICU stay, pt's vent settings were weaned quickly. She received very little sedation and was comfortable on the vent. She was maintained on the vent for the first two days in the MICU for her tunneled HD catheter placement and for initiation of HD. Her line was placed on MICU day #2 in IR without complications. HD was done the same day through the line and 1kg was removed. Pt tolerated HD well. ON MICU day #2, she was changed to PS 5/5 and a RSBI on MICU day #3 was 28. She was extubated on MICU day #3 and maintained her O2 sats in high 90s. An insulin gtt was briefly started for high blood sugars but this was titrated off. A c. diff infection was treated w/ flagyl. . On ROS today, the patient complains of "labored breathing" but denies any CP, abdominal pain, N/V, HA, weakness, paresthesias, visual changes, or palpatations.

EMG: Complex, abnormal study. There is electrophysiologic evidence for a severe, ongoing, proximal myopathy with denervating features (as can be seen in inflammatory myopathy, critical illness myopathy or toxic myopathy). In addition, there is evidence for a severe, chronic, sensorimotor, generalized polyneuropathy with both axonal and demyelinating features, as can be seen in diabetics, although other causes of neuropathy cannot be excluded . Micro - [12-17] Urine - VRE, yeast (resolved) [12-21] Stool + for C diff (resolved) [12-24] Urine - yeast (resolved) . MRI: 1. There is moderate cerebral and cerebellar atrophy. 2. There are areas of abnormal signal intensity in the brain parenchyma, the distribution of which suggests ischemic lesions including old lacunes in the thalami, probable small, old brainstem infarcts, and a probable old infarct in the right internal capsule. Given the patient's age, demyelinating disease is a consideration but the [Doctor Last Name 352] matter lesions are unusual. 3. There is good flow in the distal internal carotid arteries, the distal vertebral arteries and the basilar artery. The major branches of the cerebral arteries are normal.There is no evidence of a significant stenosis. Brief Hospital Course: 59F multiple ICU admissions for problem[Name (NI) 115] respiratory function including repiratory arrest requiring intubation who was most recently transferred back to the MICU on [1-3] with increased secretions and decreased functional respiratory reserve, concerning for neurologic induced weakness. She had been transferred out of the MICU 2 days prior ([1-1]) and while on the floor was noted to have marked increased purulent sputum on suctioning as well as increased residuals in her NG tube concerning for obstruction. Furthermore, while on the floor she was continuing work-up for her subacute weakness which included an MRI showing no cervical cord compression. Her other medical problems include DM type 1 (c/b CRF, neuropathy, and retinopathy), osteomyelitis s/p fracture, morbid obesity, HTN, CRF. She was originally admitted for this admission from rehab w/ volume overloaded and in renal failure. This early part of the hospitalization was also c/b NSTEMI which was medically managed, as well as a UTI (VRE), which was treated. . During her first MICU stay ([12-21]), pt's vent settings were weaned. She had a tunnelled HD line placed and dialysis was initiated. Also the patient was found to have Cdiff and started on flagyl. She was transferred to the floor on [2111-12-23]. . On the floor the patient had persistent hypoxia at times requiring a non rebreather. This was thought to potentially be due to vol overload vs muscular weakness. The patient has seemed to improve with HD. Of note on [2111-12-28] the patient was having abdominal pain with tube feeds and had 1 episode of coffee ground emesis in NGT suction. This cleared quickly and did not recur. Hct has remained stable. Other ongoing problems include ulcers on both feet, followed by Wound Care. A sacral decubitus ulcer developed and was treated by Wound Care. . Pt had an episode of hypotension to the 80's, hypoxia to the 70's, and unresponsiveness on [12-30] prompting code blue & transfer back to MICU. Anesthesia required an oral airway and bag mask ventilation transiently but the patient quickly regained consciousness spontaneously. Her BP normalized 120's and she was satting in the high 90's on NRB mask. EKG was unchanged and ABG during the episode was 7.44/36/223. In MICU she was started on Zosyn for pneumonia, was transferred to the floor on [1-1] after stabilization. . Weakness: Pt has had subacute (over wks) progression of profound muscular weakness and CKs were as high as 9000s (w/low CK-MB). CKs resolved spontaneously. An LP was done and was normal with negative culture. Methylmalonic acid from the CSF was normal and IgG was nondiagnostic. Her NIFs were followed and approximately -40. An EMG was done and c/w critical illness myopathy and DM neuropathy. An MRI was done which showed nothing specific. Pt never on steroids during this admission. DiffDx also includes rheumatologic cause such as polymyositis. Muscle Bx ([1-8]) c/w ICU myopathy as well as more chronic changes, but special stains are still pending. Neuro plans for outpt follow up. During course, a GJ tube was placed and tube feeds begun because of concern for pt's ability to swallow [1-14] weakness (NOTE: fasteners will need to be removed [2112-1-24] similar to sutures per Radiology who placed GJ tube). At time of discharge, patient lifting L arm > R, minimal movement of legs (none against gravity). . Hypotension: She had several episodes of hypotension in the ICU which initially resolved with fluids. No evidence of sepsis. On [1-10], pt's BP was persistently in the 90s/30s with MAPs in the 50s that didn't respond to 500cc bolus so she was started on low-dose Levophed. Renal evaluated the patient, and felt that the hypotension seemed to occur post-dialysis, and recommended a trial of mitodrine. She was started on this medication and was titrated Levophed to off [1-13]; BP was stable afterwards. Prior to discharge, patient restarted on beta blocker tx, particularly in light of recent NSTEMI, once BP was stable. BB should be held on AM of dialysis. . Diabetes: Patient with poorly controlled DM. Was transiently on insulin drip during 1st MICU stay and then transitioned to Lantus 50U [Hospital1 ]. On [1-9], pt noted to have a blood sugar of 11 so Lantus discontinued and [Last Name (un) ] consulted. Now stable and titrating up Lantus doses, with SS insulin as needed. Glucoses ranging in high 100s-low 200s of late (110-261). . C. diff colitis: Treated with flagyl, repeat toxin testing negative. . Respiratory compromise: likely due to increased secretions from tracheobronchitis. Pt was requiring sunctioning every [12-14] hours. She was continued on Zosyn x 10 days, last dose 1/28. Glycoperolate nebs were started to help with secretions but stopped as they may have been thickening the secretions. Weakness may have a component of her respiratory compromise. Continues to be stable on NC with clear lung exam & CXR. A CTA was performed which was negative for PE; did reveal some mild hilar lymphadenopathy. . CAD: h/o severe CAD, and ?NSTEMI (peak CK 9000s but peak MB only 173 so may be more noncardiac skeletal muscle) in early [Month (only) 404]. Cardiology followed peripherally and would consider cardiac cath in future. Started on ASA, now added beta blocker. Intolerant of ACE-I and [Last Name (un) ] by hx. .

Male with h.o. hypothyroidism p/w septic shock, NSTEMI, hypothermia with suspected pulmonary versus urine source. ##. Septic Shock: Pt noted to be in septic shock on admission to the ED on multiple pressors. Per family pt has a history of PNA versus aspiration PNA, hospitalized three times over the past year and also had dirty UA and ?pna on cxr from ed. Pt was initially started on zosyn, cipro and vancomycin for broad coverage in this frequently hospitalized pt in addition to pressors and xygris given pt's high apache score. Stress dose steroids were also started as pt was on dexamethasone as outpt per his med list. Influenza antigen and legionella antigen were sent and were negative. Pressors able to be weaned and antibiotics switched to linezolid for VRE in urine and meropenem for acinetobacter in sputum. Antibiotic course was completed on [9-26]. ##. Respiratory Failure: Pt arrived intubated in ventilatory failure believed to be [1-20] pna versus ards from urosepsis. This was complicated by fluid overload in the setting of volume repletion. Pt's infections were treated and pt was diuresed aggressively with resolution of pulmonary edema at time of discharge. Tracheostomy tube placed on [9-26]. Secretions continued to be a problem so t-tube kept in place. # [Last Name (un) ]: baseline Cr of 1.8-2, which slowly rose to 4.6. Etiology was believed to be ATN secondary to hypotension in setting of septic shock. Renal functions improved with creatinines trending towards baseline (baseline is 1.8-2.0, at time of discharge was 2.3). Home lasix, glyburide, flomax, lubripristone, fenofexadine, verapamil held. ##. NSTEMI: Pt showed no ischemic EKG changes in the ED but cardiac enzymes were noted to be positive with a CK of 1836, CKMB 230, CKMBI 12.5, troponin 0.06. TWI in I, avL, q in Lead III, small R-wave and aVF inferiorly. Pt ruled in, likely ischemic from his prolonged episode of hypotension. Aspirin was initially held as pt had been started on xygris, but asa was restarted once xygris course completed. In future could consider adding ace inhibitor as renal function resolves. Did not start beta blocker given episodes of bradycardia. ##. Bradycardia: Pt noted to be bradycardic, requiring atropine in the field for HR in the 40s. Bradycardia initially thought to likely be due to his hypothermia. However, had additional episodes of sinus bradycardia periodically, particularly in the evening. Improved during hospital course, with patient maintaining normal sinus rhythm with regular rate at time of discharge. # Anemia: pt??????s hematocrit trended down throughout first few days of admission. Likely [1-20] aggressive fluid hydration. Pt does also have h/o peptic ulcers, and was on xygris which increases risk of GIB, however, stool and NG aspirate both guiac negative, there was no evidence for RP bleed or intracranial bleed. Pt was maintained on PPI and active type and screen maintained. Pt was transfused one unit on [9-14] and his hematocrit did bump appropriately. Anemia thought to be secondary to renal failure. Was not actively bleeding and HCT was stable at time of discharge. #. Hypothyroidism: continued on home levothyroxine . #Schizophrenia: Intially held clozaril and perphenazine while intubated and sedated. Pt was then started on linezolid so clozaril and perphenazine were held for concern for seratonin syndrome. Linezolid course was completed on [9-26]. Clozaril should be held another 2 weeks, at least, and could be restarted on [10-10] as long as patient is not sedated. Can be continued on perphenazine per home dose. . #COPD: continue atrovent and albuterol prn, usually on nebs but switched to inh while intubated. . #? adrenal insufficiency: on dexamethasone 2mg at home, hydrocortisone was initially started at stress doses and then weaned down and eventually transitioned back to dexamethasone. Pt can follow up c his PCP regarding whether he will need to continue dexamethasone (this diagnosis is very recent and did not seem definite based on OSH records). . # DM: Pt with known DM type 2. Initially placed on insulin drip as it was felt that his skin was likely too edematous to get good absorption of sc insulin (target range for gtt was 150-200). After diuresis pt was placed on sc insulin. # SW: SW consulted for regarding safety of pt's living situation. They felt that placement at home would not be a good idea and should go to rehab and be further evaluated for placement at time of discharge from rehab. # Prophylaxis: Subcutaneous heparin , bowel reg # Code: FULL PCP Dr [Last Name (STitle) 84660] [Telephone/Fax (1) 24017] Medications on Admission: per pt list: lasix 40 [Hospital1 ] levothyroxine 50 mcg daily glyburide 2.5 daily amitiza 24 mcg (lubiprostone) flomax 0.4 mg fexofenadine verapamil 120 perphenazine 4 clozaril 200 (recent dc summary says 100??) asa 81 centrum "Cenna plus?" dexamethasone 2mg atrovent nebs albuterol nebs Discharge Medications: 1.

Discharge Disposition: Extended Care Facility: [Hospital6 1293] - [Location (un) 1294] Discharge Diagnosis: 1) Uro/pneumo sepsis 2) Ventilator acquired pneumonia 3) S/p tracheostomy and PEG tube placement Discharge Condition: Stable for discharge to rehab. Good saturation on 60% FiO2 via T-tube. Discharge Instructions: You were admitted to the ICU because you had a severe infection in your urine and in your lungs that caused your blood pressure to fall. While in the ICU, we treated you for this by giving you fluids and giving you antibiotics (linezolid and meropenem) for these infections, of which you completed the course. Because you had trouble breathing, we started you on a breathing machine. Over the course of several days, your infection began to clear, your fevers improved, and your blood pressure returned to normal. You were also getting better at breathing so we took you off the ventilator and put in a tracheostomy, which allows us to give you oxygen safely. When you go to rehab, they will assess you daily to see when your tracheostomy can be safely removed or whether your PEG tube can come out once you can safely take food by mouth. . The following medication changes were made: (1) Because of renal failure, we stopped your lasix. As your renal failure begins to clear, this can be restarted. (2) We stopped your glyburide because of your renal failure. (3) We stopped your home dose of flomax because of your renal failure. (4) We stopped your verapamil b/c of your renal failure. (5) we Stopped your clozaril, because in combination with the linezolid, this can cause your white blood cell count to drop. You can restart clozaril on [10-10]. (6) You should continue to take perphenazine 4 mg [Hospital1 ] as at home; this can also be given PRN for agitation. (7) You should start lansoprazole which protects your stomach from getting irritated. Followup Instructions: 1) Monday, [2121-10-27] you should follow up with Pulmonary with Dr [Last Name (STitle) 2168].

Intravenous nitro and heparin were instituted, but they had to be titrated up for recurrent chest pain. It was felt that the he should proceed with coronary revascularization on [1-8] due to recalcitrant chest pain on maximal medical therapy. He was brought to the operating room on [1-8] where the patient underwent urgent coronary artery bypass grafting. See operative report for further details. Overall the he tolerated the procedure well and post-operatively was transferred to the CVICU in stable condition for recovery and invasive monitoring. In the first twenty four hours he was weaned from sedation, awoke neurologically intact and was extubated without complications. On post operative day one he was started on betablockers for heart rate and lasix for diuresis, both were adjusted over the next few days. His pain medication was adjusted for improved pain control with good response. He was transferred to the telemetry floor for further recovery. Chest tubes and pacing wires were discontinued without complication. The he was evaluated by the physical therapy service for assistance with strength and mobility. He continued to require intravenous diuresis for volume overload and remained until post operative day five when he was ambulating on room air with oxygen saturations 92-96 %, He was discharged home with services in good condition with appropriate follow up instructions and to continue on oral lasix, plan for follow up wound check thrusday [1-19].

CXR [9-9]: Bibasilar opacities concerning for consolidation with likely underlying right greater than left bilateral pleural effusions. LHC/RHC [9-13]: 1. Selective coronary angiography of this right dominant system revealed diffuse 2 vessel obstructive coronary artery disease. THe LMCA had a 50% ostial stenosis. The LAD had diffuse calcified disease with a mid subtotal occlusion. The LCX had no significant stenoses. The RCA was occluded in the mid portion, with the distal vessel filling via collaterals from the LAD. 2. Resting hemodynamics demonstrated elevated right sided filling pressures with a RVEDP of 24 mm Hg. Pulmonary artery pressures were elvated at 65/35 mm Hg. The wedge pressure was markedly elevated at a mean of 43 mm Hg. Calculated ardiac output and index were low at 3.8 L/min and 2 L/min/m2, respectively, using an assumed oxygen consumption of 125 ml O2/min/m2. The SVR was increased at 1432 dyne s/cm5. 3. Unsuccessful attempt to cross the mid LAD occlusion with a 1.5 x 9 balloon. . FINAL DIAGNOSIS: 1. 2 vessel obstructive coronary artery disease. 2. Markedly elevated right sided and wedge pressures, consistent with severe heart failure. 3. Unsuccessful PCI attempt of the mid-LAD. . TTE [9-12]: The left atrium and right atrium are normal in cavity size. Left ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity size are normal. There is severe global left ventricular hypokinesis with relative preservation of the basal inferolateral and lateral walls (LVEF = 20-25 %). No masses or thrombi are seen in the left ventricle. Right ventricular chamber size is normal with moderate global free wall hypokinesis. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are structurally normal. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Mild to moderate ([11-19]+) mitral regurgitation is seen. Moderate [2+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion. . IMPRESSION: Severe biventricular systolic dysfunction c/w multivessel CAD or other diffuse process. Mild-moderate mitral regurgitation. Mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. No pericardial effusion. . CAROTID DOPPLER [9-16]: Impression: Right ICA stenosis <40%. Left ICA stenosis <40%. . BLE ULTRASOUND [9-10]: IMPRESSION: No DVT in either lower extremities. . CXR [9-14]: IMPRESSION: Overall unchanged appearance of bilateral pleural effusions and pulmonary vascular congestion. Brief Hospital Course: # Cardiomyopathy: ?Tachycardia/AT mediated vs. ETOH related with CHF exacerbation: Upon arrival to the floor, the patient was consistently dyspneic with as little exertion as ambulating from her bed to the bathroom. She was mildly tachypneic, but oxygen saturation was stable, and there was low index of suspicion for pulmonary embolism. Furthermore, she had already been empirically placed on heparin for concern over her elevated cardiac biomarkers. With more aggressive diuresis, the patient's shortness of breath and peripheral edema improved dramatically. She underwent left and right heart catheterization. Heart cath showed diffuse 3VD with no intervenable targets. Mid LAD near total occlusion was too tight to thread balloon through. She was seen by CT-surgery (Dr. [First Name8 (NamePattern2) ] [Last Name (NamePattern1) 914]) who felt that she had poor targets for surgical revascularization, and should be treated medically. Patient was admitted to CCU for further diuresis. She responded well to IV lasix boluses and did not require pressor support for adequate diuresis. Oxygen requirements were quickly weaned down to zero and the patient was transferred to the floor. She continued to diuresis well, ultimately requiring lasix IV + metolazone PO to continue diuresis. On discharge the patient had mild rales in the lung bases bilaterally. She was transitioned to PO lasix, BB, ACEI. She was noted to have frequent episodes of rapid atrial tachycardia, sometimes lasting hours, while on the floor. She will be seen by Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] as an outpatient to determine whether she would benefit from AT ablation (if potentially causing tachy-mediated myopathy) . Patient may eventually require ICD placement given EF 20-25%. Unclear if her cardiomyopathy is [12-20] ischemia (unlikely given no prior infarcts) vs. tachy-mediated as above, or ETOH (prior history of substantial ETOH abuse many years ago), in which case under SCD-HEFT criteria the patient should have NYHA II/III symptoms in order to merit ICD placement. Repeat echo in 3 mos. and follow up as outpatient to reassess sx to see if ICD placement is warranted. . # CAD: The patient's cardiac enzymes featured elevated troponins and normal CK/MB's. Her EKG did not have any new ischemic changes, but had signs consistent with prior MI. Given the patient's female gender, diabetes, and evidence of prior MI with no history of chest pain, there was concern that the patient could have potentially suffered an NSTEMI. For this reason and given the patient's high TIMI score, she was started on a heparin gtt. TTE demonstrated global hypokinesis and a left ventricular ejection fraction of 20-30%. LHC/RHC revealed no evidence of acute MI but did show severe diffuse 3VD. No intervention was possible. CT Surgery was consulted but felt that as the patient had no appropriate sites for touchdown, CABG was not warranted. Patient will be continued on maximal medical therapy. - statin, ASA, BB, ACEI . # Dysphagia: The patient complained of having food stuck high in her throat. This only applied to solid foods, as liquids were able to go down fine. The patient was ordered to undergo barium swallowing study after her cardiopulmonary status improved. The barium study revealed passive swallowing with no mechanical obstruction and normal motility. . # [Last Name (un) ]: The patient's admission labs featured a BUN/creatinine of 24/1.4. Her baseline as of [2146-4-18] was 12/0.9. The [Last Name (un) ] was believed to be secondary to decreased effective circulating volume and diuresis. With further diuresis, the patient's renal function stabilized. . # Hyponatremia: The patient had hypervolemic hyponatremia on arrival, with initial serum sodium of 129. Low Na poor prognostic sign in CHF. Sodium somewhat improved during course of admission. D/c Na was 130. . # Hypertension: Upon admission, the patient's blood pressure was stable in the high 90s-low 100's overnight. Diuresis was initiated in the ED, but the patient received a small fluid bolus for tachycardia. Her ACE inhibitor and beta blocker were initially held, both for preventing worsening [Last Name (un) ] and to allow the blood pressure to stay high enough to provide adequate diuresis. Ultimately BB + ACEI were started to control BP before discharge. . # Diabetes mellitus: The patient's oral hypoglycemics were initially held, and she was started on a humalog sliding scale. Fingerstick blood sugars were high from 180-250, and patient was started on a basal dose of insulin glargine 10 units qhs. HbA1c 7.9% during hospitalization.

He had intially presented to [Hospital 1474] Hospital emergency department with 4 to 6 hours of crushing chest pain and shortness of breath that occurred while he was watching television. He rated the pain [9-16] and reports that it did not radiate. The pain was accompanied by diaphoresis, nausea, vomiting, and severe shortness of breath. He called EMS for further assistance. He received 3 sublinqual nitroglycerin and IV lasix with relief of the pain. On arrival to [Last Name (LF) 1474], [First Name3 (LF) ] EKG showed ST depressions in the anterolateral leads with inverted T waves. A chest x-ray was notable for pulmonary edema. He had elevated cardiac enzymes. He received plavix and heparin and was transfered to the [Hospital1 18]. He underwent cardiac catherization that reveal 3 vessel disease.

On admission to [Hospital1 1474]: sinus tachycardia at 113, STE V1, STD in I, II, III, aVF, V3-V6, TWI II, III, aVF, V4-V6 (new) 2. At [Hospital1 18]: Normal sinus at 94, nl axis, STE in V1, V2, STD I, II, V3-V6, TWI V3-V6, LVH 3. Post procedure: Normal sinus at 85, nl axis, STE V1, V2, V3, STD I, V4-V6, TWI V4-V6, LVH . Liver Ultrasound: Normal Study. . Cardiac Catherization: Right dominant circulation. The LMCA was short and heavily calcified with a distal taper. The LAD had a proximal eccentric 80% lesion and the distal vessel had a tubular 70% lesion. Numerous diagonal arteries were without critical lesions. The left circumflex was a non-dominant vessel with heavy calcifications. Only a ramus was seen and it was occluded proximally. The RCA was a dominant vessel with a proximal 99% lesion. The abdominal aorta was found to have moderate diffuse disease with iliac aneurysmal dilation and poor distal flow to the CFA. The RCA was stented with a 3.0 x 18 Cypher. The final residual was 0% with normal flow. . Echocardiogram: EF of 40-45% with moderate global left ventricular hypokinesis. Brief Hospital Course: This is a 63 year-old male admitted with NSTEMI. . 1) NSTEMI: He was admitted with an NSTEMI. Cardiac catherization revealed three vessel disease. He had a stent placed in his right coronary. A post-catherization echocardiogram showed mildly dilated left atrium, mild global hypokinesis, and an ejection fraction of 40-45%. The initial plan was to undergo CABG to address is left circumflex and left anterior descending disease. During the pre-operative work-up, he was found to have totally occluded bilateral internal carotid arteries. Therefore, he was deemed to not be a surgical candidate. He was medically managed with aspirin, high dose statin, beta-blocker, ACE-inhibitor, and Plavix. His cardiac enzymes trended down and he had no further chest pain. He was discharged with cardiology follow-up. . 2) End stage renal disease: He was maintained on his regular Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday dialysis. He received epoetin with dialysis and was maintained on Nephrocaps and phosphate binders. His dialysis flow sheets during this admission were faxed to his outpatient dialysis center. He was discharged to continue his regular dialysis. . 3) Status post CVA: The details of his CVA are unknown. He was supposedly on dilantin, but his level was subtherapeutic. He was maintained on his outpatient dilantin while in house. He was maintained on aspirin and Plavix for secondary prophylaxis. . 4) COPD: He had no active issues. He was maintained on albuterol and Atrovent inhalers. . 5) Elevated LFT's: His elevated LFTs were thought to be secondary to alcohol intake or Statin use. A right upper quadrant ultrasound was normal, and his LFTs remained stable throughout the admission. He will need his LFTs followed as an outpatient. . 6) Diabetes: He was not taking any medications at home for his diabetes. His A1c on admission was 6.1. His sugars remained under good control with minimal coverage with an insulin sliding scale. His blood sugars and A1c should be monitored as an outpatient. . 7) FEN: He was maintained on a renal, cardiac, and diabetic diet. He was maintained on phosphate binders. . 8) Code: Full. . 9) Dispo: On the day after his catherization, he wanted to leave AMA. At the time, he was delirious and could demonstrate that he understood the gravity of his medical condition. Psychiatry evaluated him and felt that he did not have the capacity to leave AMA. He subsequently cleared his delirium. His son was involved and wanted to take the patient home with him. The patient was discharged in the care of his son who would help monitor his medications and follow-up appointments. Psychiatry also recommended behavioral neurology follow-up as well and neuropsychiatry testing. Medications on Admission: 1. Paxil 20 mg daily 2. Lopressor 50 mg [Hospital1 ] 3. Plavix 300 mg x1 4.

[2142-7-5] CXR IMPRESSION: New peripheral left lower lobe opacity, concerning for developing pneumonia. Brief Hospital Course: 46 yo female with a hx of asthma requiring intubation in the past who presents with wheezing and shortness of breath c/w an asthma exacerbation in the setting of a probable viral infection, medication non complaince course c/b pneumonia and headaches found to have a chiari malformation and cervical syrinx # Acute exacerbation of asthma Presentation was felt to be most consistent with an exacerbation of the patients known asthma secondary to environmental factors, URI and medication non compliance. Initially, there was no e/o PNA on CXR (see below). CP mildly concerning for ACS though normal EKG and TnI is reassuring. Pt does not have risk factors for PE. As above she initially required q 1 hr albuterol treatment in the ED. She was started on oral prednisone and given a one time dose of IV magnesium. She was admitted to the ICU given need for frequent treatments and history of requiring intubation. Respiratory status improved and nebulizer treatments were spaced to albuterol every 4 hours and ipratropium every 6 hours. She was additionally restarted on her home Flovent. She was transferred to the floor where her symptoms persisted. Pulmonary was consulted and they advised to add Singulair and briefly placed her on IV steroids. Her symptoms slowly improved and her peak flow improved to around 350 (reported baseline is 500). The Pulmonary team recommended a cost effective regimen including Symbicort, Spiriva and Singulair, given the patient social situation. The pharmacy was called and it was estimated that this regimen would cost about $13 dollars a month. They also recommended tapering the patients prednisone down to 20 mg until follow up with them on [7-23]. In addition, the patient will be set up with outpatient Allergy follow up for possible RAST testing. Smoking cessation was strongly advised. The patient left the floor multiple times, according to the nursing staff, for reasons unknown. . # Hospital acquired pneumonia Throughout the patients course she complained of a cough which was initially attributed to her asthma exacerbation. Two CXR's were checked on [6-27] and [7-2] and both were negative for an acute process. During that time the patient didn't have a fever or leukocytosis. Due to a slow recovery, a 3rd was checked on [7-5] and she was found to have a LLL opacity. Given that the patient had been hospitalized, she was initially started on broad spectrum coverage with zosyn. Her cough and symptoms continued to improve and as a result her coverage was narrowed to Augmentin. She remained afebrile and her WBC was stable. She will be discharged to home with 9 additional days of Augmentin to complete her course. . # subacute headaches/neck pain likely due to Chiari malformation The patient initially presented with mild headaches and then on [2142-7-3] she reported the "worst headache of her life" with decreased visual acuity, floaters and left upper extremity paresthesias in the setting of poorly controlled BP's in the SBP 170-150 range. As a result, a H-CT was obtained which showed a effacement of the basal cisterns and a question of cerebral edema. Neurology team was consulted and they recommended a MRI/MRV to rule out venous sinus thrombosis. These studies were done and they were without evidence of acute hypertensive encephalopathy, sinus vein thrombosis, infarct, or mass. They did show a low lying cerebellar tonsils and small syrinx in the proximal cervical cord. The Neurosurgery service was then involved and recommended MRI of the spinal cord for further evaluation which showed a small syrinx at C1/C2 and mildly low lying cerebellar tonsils. The Neurosurgery service felt that her signs and symptoms of left sided neck pain and headaches were due to her syrinx and Chiari malformation and the patient was strongly encouraged to follow up in the clinic. She was treated in house symptomatically and her headache and floaters resolved. Her only remaining symptoms toward the end of her hospitalization was left posterior neck pain/stiffness which was reproducible on exam. She was given lidocaine patches and was encouraged to use non-narcotics analgesics given her constipation. Her blood pressure was also controlled. . # HTN, poorly controlled The patient had been on blood pressure medications in the past and it appears they had been stopped for economic reasons. She was re-started on Norvasc in house to try and achieve better BP control, BB were not used due to her asthma. HCTZ was then added and her SBP were between 130-140. Further titration of her blood pressure regimen should be done as an outpatient. . # Constipation The patient was started on an aggressive bowel regimen. She had a bowel movement with the assistance of enemas and multiple medications . # Chest pain- most likely [2-8] to coughing. EKG was not concerning for ACS. The patient had TnI negative X3 while in house. Patient was given Tessalon pearles and Guaifenesin for cough as well as Guaifenesin with codeine to allow for better sleep at night. . # Sinus Tachycardia Likely due to anxiety about discharge and albuterol treatment throughout her course. This improved as nebulizer treatments were spaced. . # Complex social issues The patient requested social work support several times during her stay. She reported housing issues in addition to difficulty obtaining medications. SW provided her with as much support as possible and made SW support in her PCP's practice aware of these issues. In addition, they called the patients pharmacy to be sure she could get her medications with her current insurance. The pharmacy indicated that she could and the floor team faxed her prescriptions to the pharmacy. The patient indicated she did not have any medications at home, as a result I refilled all her medications. I also continually stressed the importance of good outpatient follow up. . TRANSITIONAL ISSUES - Patient should have outpatient Pulmonary follow-up ([2-9] weeks), Allergy (2-3 weeks), Neurosurgery (2-3 weeks) and PCP (1-2 weeks) follow up .

Admission Date: [2111-2-18] Discharge Date: [2111-3-18] Date of Birth: [2037-11-1] Sex: F Service: NEUROLOGY Allergies: Patient recorded as having No Known Allergies to Drugs Attending:[First Name3 (LF) 8850] Chief Complaint: Mental status changes. Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: Brain biopsy [2111-2-23] Central line placement [2111-2-28] Portacath placement [2111-3-12] G-tube placement [2111-3-12] History of Present Illness: This is a 73 year old female with history of alcohol abuse, cirrhosis, bipolar disorder, and hypothyroidism, who was transferred to [Hospital1 18] with mental status change, aphasia, left sided weakness and facial droop, and encephalopathy. She was found at outside hospital to have multiple brain lesions with mass effect on CT scan. Here an MRI of the head showed multiple, likely metastatic lesions of the brain. CT abd showed suspicious low attenuation lesion in dome of liver. CT head repeat showed multiple enhancing lesions including the largest in the right frontal lobe measuring 15 mm, most consistent with metastatic disease. Unchanged cerebral edema in the right frontal lobe with associated mass effect upon right lateral ventricle, and no interval development of hemorrhage or hydrocephalus. The patient underwent bipsy on 2/209 which has confirmed CNS lymphoma. Overnight ([2111-3-3]) the patient was transferred to the [Hospital Unit Name 153] after triggering for hypoxia, for closer observation given O2 sats in the 80's to low 90's while on a non re-breather venti mask. On CXR on [2111-3-3] the patient was found to have new collapse of the RML and RLL, in addition to enlarging pleural effusions compared to prior AP films. On repeat imaging, the RML and RLL collapse had resolved and the patient's oxygenation status improved. It is possible that the patient's hypoxia and RML/RLL collapse were due to her expanding pleural effusion or to a mucous plug. Given her improved clinical status, she was transferred back to the OMED floor.

The diagnostic lesion is best seen in Specimens E and F, although it is likely that there is some infiltration by lymphoma in B, C and D. Hematopathology note: (E), (F): High grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma, in keeping with a primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the CNS, see note. Note: Sections E and F show similar features. There is a diffuse dense infiltrate of atypical mononuclear cells comprised of predominantly large cells, within finely dispersed chromatin and multiple small nucleoli. There are focal areas of necrosis/apoptosis, frequent mitosis as well as perivascular cuffing noted (see slide F). Reticulin stain highlights multiple vessel walls. By immunohistochemistry performed on blocks E and F, the large atypical cells are diffusely immuno reactive for leucocyte common antigen LCA (CD45) as well as pan B cell marker, CD20, and co-express bcl-6 and MUM-1. They do not aberrantly express CD10 or TdT. By MIB-1 staining, the proliferative fraction among the neoplastic cells is nearly 100%. CD3 highlights few admixed T cells. EBV encoded RNA in situ hybridization stain for [Doctor Last Name 3271] [Doctor Last Name ] virus is negative. Overall, the findings are of a high grade B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma in keeping with a primary diffuse large B cell lymphatic of the CNS. CT head [2111-2-18]: Multiple enhancing cerebral lesions, with vasogenic edema surrounding the largest of these in the right frontal lobe. Findings are concerning for metastatic disease. MRI head [2111-2-20]: Multiple enhancing masses suggesting most likely malignant neoplasm, metastatic or primary. Diffuse white matter infiltration and cortical infiltration raises the possibility of either glial infiltration, or swelling related to recent seizure activity. ECHO [2111-3-2]: The left atrium is mildly dilated. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and regional/global systolic function are normal (LVEF >55%). The estimated cardiac index is normal (>=2.5L/min/m2). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion. There is no aortic valve stenosis. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The anterior mitral valve leaflet is mildly thickened. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Normal biventricular cavity sizes with preserved global and regional biventricular systolic function. Mitral leaflet thickening with mild mitral regurgitation. Video swallow [2111-3-13]: Moderate oropharyngeal dysphagia, including aspiration of thin liquid. The patient is at significant risk for aspiration of other consistency if eating too quickly. Patient should repeat bedside swallow evaluation in one to two weeks. The swallowing pattern correlates to a dysphagia outcome severity scale (DOSS) rating of 3, moderate dysphagia. Please refer to the speech therapist's note for full evaluation and recommendation. Brief Hospital Course: This is a 73 year old female with history of alcohol abuse, cirrhosis, bipolar disorder, and hypothyroidism, who was transferred to [Hospital1 18] with mental status change, aphasia, left sided weakness and facial droop, and encephalopathy. She was found at outside hospital to have multiple brain lesions with mass effect on CT scan. Here an MRI of the head showed multiple, likely metastatic lesions of the brain. CT abd showed suspicious low attenuation lesion in dome of liver. CT head repeat showed multiple enhancing lesions including the largest in the right frontal lobe measuring 15 mm, most consistent with metastatic disease. Unchanged cerebral edema in the right frontal lobe with associated mass effect upon right lateral ventricle, and no interval development of hemorrhage or hydrocephalus. The patient underwent biopsy on [2111-2-23] which has confirmed CNS lymphoma. Overnight ([2111-3-3]) the patient was transferred to the [Hospital Unit Name 153] after triggering for hypoxia, for closer observation given O2 sats in the 80's to low 90's while on a non re-breather venti mask. On CXR on [2111-3-3] the patient was found to have new collapse of the RML and RLL, in addition to enlarging pleural effusions compared to prior AP films. She was diuresed and started on vanc/unasyn on [2111-3-4] for aspiration. On [2111-3-4], on repeat imaging, the RML and RLL collapse had resolved and the patient's oxygenation status improved. It is possible that the patient's hypoxia and RML/RLL collapse were due to her expanding pleural effusion or to a mucous plug. Given her improved clinical status, she was transferred back to the OMED floor. The patient received a G-tube and PORT placement on [2111-3-12]. She also received her second round of Methotrexate chemotherapy after these procedures and Methotrexate levels followed until clear. Her renal function remained normal throughout this treatment. At the time of discharge, she is alert and oriented x 3 with increasing function of her left upper and lower extremities to 4/5 strength. She will be returning in two-weeks for her next methotrexate treatment. Medications on Admission: 1. Synthroid 88 mcg daily 2. depakote 250mg daily 3.

Admission Date: [2104-4-12] Discharge Date: [2104-4-15] Date of Birth: [2029-8-6] Sex: F Service: Medical Intensive Care Unit CHIEF COMPLAINT: Pustular discharge from implantable cardioverter-defibrillator pocket. HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 74-year-old female with a past medical history significant for coronary artery disease status post three-vessel coronary artery bypass graft surgery x 2, aortic stenosis status post aortic valve replacement, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and hypertension with a prolonged complicated recent hospital course at [Hospital1 1444] from [1-30] to [2104-3-26]. The patient was transferred from an outside hospital on [2104-1-30] with new onset atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate and non-ST elevation myocardial infarction for cardiac catheterization. On cardiac catheterization the patient was noted to have left main and two-vessel disease with elevated pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and severe pulmonary hypertension. On [2-5], the patient underwent redo coronary artery bypass grafting with left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending coronary artery, saphenous vein graft to the diagonal, and saphenous vein graft to the posterior descending coronary artery. The patient's postoperative course was complicated by hypotension requiring pressors, failure to extubate, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate with failure to cardiovert, and acutely worsening congestive heart failure with a decreased ejection fraction of less than 20% (prior to coronary artery bypass grafting the patient's ejection fraction was 50%). The patient returned for relook cardiac catheterization with noted acute graft closure and underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and stenting of the left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending coronary artery, and saphenous vein graft to the diagonal. Post cardiac catheterization the patient developed acute renal failure with volume overload requiring CVVH, worsening heart failure requiring intra-aortic balloon pump complicated by rectus sheath hematoma, and ventricular fibrillation arrest requiring amiodarone and lidocaine. The patient again failed to extubate on multiple occasions and a tracheostomy was placed on [3-2]. The patient also underwent PEG tube placement on [3-4] and PICC line placement on [3-7]. An implantable cardioverter-defibrillator was placed on [3-11] with dual pacer (the delay in implantable cardioverter-defibrillator placement was secondary to multiple infections throughout the hospitalization including yeast graft harvest site, wound infection, Enterobacter bacteremia, C. difficile colitis, and yeast cystitis). Two days post ICD placement, the patient developed greater than 70 episodes of ventricular fibrillation/ventricular tachycardia. A repeat echocardiogram demonstrated a thrombus on the aortic valve anterior leaflet. The patient was started on TPA for a total of 24 hours with significant improvement in her aortic valve gradient. However, the patient subsequently developed an ICD pocket hematoma requiring operating room evacuation on [3-17]. The patient was eventually discharged to rehabilitation on [2104-3-26]. Since discharge the patient has remained hemodynamically stable without further episodes of ventricular fibrillation and the patient has been undergoing a progressive weaning trial from the ventilator with signs of success. The patient has also remained afebrile, however two days prior to the current admission, the patient was noted to have significant erythema around the ICD pocket site. Twenty-four hours later the patient was noted to have blood and pus draining spontaneously from the site and the patient was transferred to [Hospital1 69] for ICD removal. The patient received one dose of vancomycin the morning of admission while at rehabilitation. The patient denied fever, chills, abdominal pain, shortness of breath, chest pain as well as diarrhea. Of note, the patient has been off diuretics since [4-7] for prerenal azotemia. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: 1. Atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular rate (on amiodarone). 2. Hypertension. 3.

SOCIAL HISTORY: The patient is a widow with a 15-pack-year tobacco history (he quit greater than 15 years ago), with no history of alcohol excess. FAMILY HISTORY: Noncontributory. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: Temperature 97.4, heart rate 72, blood pressure 103/34, respiratory rate 17, oxygen saturation 97% on CPAP pressure support of 15, PEEP of 5 and FIO2 of 50%. General: The patient is a nontoxic appearing elderly female in no acute distress. HEENT: Normocephalic, atraumatic, pupils were equal, round, and reactive to light and accommodation, extraocular movements intact bilaterally, dry mucous membranes, no thrush, edentulous. Neck: Supple, no lymphadenopathy, tracheostomy in place. Cardiovascular: Regular rate and rhythm with normal S1 and S2 with a 3/6 systolic ejection murmur at the left upper sternal border radiating to the neck. Lungs: Clear to auscultation bilaterally anteriorly with no rhonchi, and well-healed midline sternal incision. ICD site dressing clean, dry and intact. Abdomen: Soft, normal active bowel sounds, nontender, nondistended, no hepatosplenomegaly, PEG tube in place, clean, dry and intact. Extremities: No cyanosis, clubbing or edema, warm and well perfused, with 1+ dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial pulses bilaterally, left lower extremity thigh wound at the graft incision packed with occlusive dressing and no purulent drainage. Neurologic: Nonfocal. LABORATORY DATA: Complete blood count with a white blood cell count of 10.7, hematocrit 27.9, platelet count 315. Chem-7 with a sodium of 131, potassium 3.8, chloride 93, bicarbonate 28, BUN 70, creatinine 1.2, and glucose 455 (status post two amps of D50 for a glucose of 33). White blood cell differential 91% polys, 0% bands, 5% lymphocytes. Chest x-ray on admission showed no evidence of pneumothorax, ICD leads in good position, bilateral lower lobe atelectasis with small bilateral pleural effusions. EKG on admission was normal sinus rhythm at 90 with left bundle branch block, left axis, Q waves in leads 2, 3 and aVF with poor R wave progression (unchanged compared with [2104-2-16]). Microbiology of note during the hospitalization with swab cultures from the ICD pocket from admission on [4-12] with 3+ Gram positive cocci in pairs and clusters, culture positive for Staphylococcus aureus (sensitivities pending). Blood culture and urine culture from admission were without growth. HOSPITAL COURSE: In the Emergency Department, the electrophysiology, CT surgery and infectious disease services were consulted. Per electrophysiology and CT surgery recommendations, the patient was taken to the operating room for ICD box removal. Because the patient's admission INR was 2.7, only the ICD box was removed; the pacer/defibrillator leads were capped and left in place for future removal. An intraoperative transesophageal echocardiogram demonstrated an ejection fraction of less than 20% with 2% mitral regurgitation and tricuspid regurgitation and no evidence of valvular vegetation. The patient was admitted to the intensive care unit given her ventilator dependence. REMAINDER OF HOSPITAL COURSE BY SYSTEMS: 1. Infectious disease: The patient's initial OR swab of the ICD site demonstrated 3+ Gram positive cocci in pairs and chains and Staphylococcus aureus on culture. The Staphylococcus aureus sensitivities are still pending at the time of dictation. The patient continued on vancomycin dosed by level less than 15 per infectious disease recommendations, and is currently on day four of vancomycin. The patient has remained afebrile throughout the hospital course and blood cultures remain no growth to date. The patient will continue on vancomycin for a total of a 14-day course. A PICC line was placed on [4-15] for delivery of intravenous antibiotics. 2. Cardiovascular: The patient was monitored on telemetry post ICD removal with frequent premature ventricular contractions and no evidence of recurrent ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia. The patient remained rate controlled in the 70s on amiodarone. The patient was restarted on low-dose aspirin, statin (with lipids: total cholesterol 221, LDL 147, HDL 45, and triglycerides 113), and low-dose enalapril for known coronary artery disease (A low-dose beta blocker was not started during the hospitalization secondary to congestive heart failure exacerbation. However, it is the team's recommendation to start a low-dose beta blocker for known coronary artery disease with better control of the patient's volume status). The patient remained anticoagulated for aortic valve replacement. The patient's Coumadin was held during the hospitalization with the initiation of heparin at an INR of less than 2.5. On hospital day number three, with an INR of 2.2 and four units of fresh frozen plasma, the patient's ICD leads were removed by electrophysiology without complications. Echocardiogram during the procedure and repeat echocardiogram several hours later was without evidence of pericardial effusion. However, the patient's aortic valve gradient was noted to be somewhat elevated at 52. Given the patient's reversal of anticoagulation, there was concern for recurrent aortic valve thrombus. Of note, no thrombus was noted on echocardiogram. Repeat echocardiogram demonstrated a decreased gradient of 43. The electrophysiology service plans to replace the patient's ICD in the near future after completion of antibiotics for infection. The patient's echocardiogram demonstrated persistent biventricular failure with an ejection fraction of less than 20%, 2+ MR, and 2+ TR. On hospital day three (off diuretics for a total of five days), the patient developed pulmonary edema as seen on chest x-ray with coincidental decreased oxygen saturations. The patient's diuretics (Lasix, Zaroxolyn and Aldactone) were restarted with a slow but steady response. Despite the slow response, the patient's oxygen saturations were improved and remained stable in the mid-90s. 3. Pulmonary: The patient continued on the ventilator at her prior vent settings of pressure support 15, PEEP 5, and FIO2 of 40% with adequate oxygenation and ventilation. 4. Endocrine: On admission, the patient developed refractory hypoglycemia presumably secondary to recent dose of glipizide in the setting of decreased PEG tube intake with nausea and vomiting. The patient received D10 per IV and D25 per PEG tube with maintenance of normoglycemia. The patient's blood glucose normalized after approximately 24 hours off dextrose supplements. The patient's glipizide was held during the hospitalization and the patient was covered with sliding scale insulin. The patient's glipizide was restarted on discharge. The patient continues on Synthroid for hypothyroidism secondary to amiodarone. The patient's T4 was within normal limits and the Synthroid was continued on her prior outpatient dose (the patient's TSH was elevated, however it is an unreliable measure of thyroid function in the setting of acute illness). 5. Fluids, electrolytes and nutrition: The patient was intolerant of tube feeds early in the hospital course secondary to persistent nausea and vomiting, despite Reglan and Zofran. On hospital day number three the patient's tube feeds were restarted at 10 cc an hour and advanced slowly without further nausea and vomiting. The patient was started on ProMod with fiber with a goal of 40 cc per hour. 6. Hematology: The patient's admission hematocrit was low at 27 (down from her prior baseline hematocrit of 29-31). The patient received one unit of packed red blood cells on hospital day one with an appropriate bump in her hematocrit. The patient's hematocrit remained stable throughout the hospitalization until hospital day four ([4-15]) when the patient's hematocrit dropped to 26.6 from 29.3. The etiology of the drop was unclear with the exception of possible blood loss during the ICD lead removal on [4-14]. Of note, the patient also had recent history of guaiac positive stools. During the hospitalization the patient remained guaiac negative. The patient is to require one unit transfusion of packed red blood cells. The [Hospital 228] rehabilitation has agreed to transfuse the one unit on transfer, post discharge from [Hospital1 69]. The patient underwent PICC line placement on [4-15] prior to discharge. CONDITION ON DISCHARGE: Stable, with adequate oxygenation and ventilation, hemodynamically stable. DISCHARGE DIAGNOSES: 1. ICD pocket infection with Staphylococcus aureus (sensitivities pending). 2. Coronary artery disease status post three-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting x 2. 3. Congestive heart failure with an ejection fraction of less than 20%. 4.

DISCHARGE INSTRUCTIONS: The patient is to be discharged to rehabilitation where she has been for the prior two weeks. The patient will require dressing changes both for the ICD wound infection and the left thigh graft site wound infection. Recommendation per CT surgery was wet-to-dry dressing changes t.i.d. (nonocclusive dressings). Of note the patient underwent debridement of the left thigh graft wound infection by CT surgery on the day of discharge. The patient will continue with her prior weaning trials per the rehabilitation doctor. The patient has been started back on Coumadin and will continue on Coumadin for an INR of 2.5 to 3.5. In the meantime the patient will be dosed on Lovenox to maintain anticoagulation. The patient will require one unit transfusion of packed red blood cells on arrival to rehabilitation for an hematocrit of 26.6 on [4-15]. The patient will need further work-up for her down-trending hematocrit if this persists. The patient is to continue on a 14-day course of vancomycin dosed by level of less than 15.

Will need repeat colonoscopy in the future to remove polyps. No intervention. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. [Known lastname 41141] is an 86 y.o. Spanish speaking male with history of PUD s/p Billroth II and celiac disease, admitted on [2124-4-6] to MICU for BRBPR, s/p colonoscopy revealing diverticulosis. # Lower GI Bleed: Patient had a h/o gastric ulcers so initially it was thought that he could have a very brisk UGIB, but with negative NG lavage and rectal blood on exam, lower GI bleed felt more probable. He received 4 units pRBCs, was prepped overnight and then underwent colonoscopy which revealed diverticulosis and several polyps but no active bleeding. The polyps were not removed given recent bleed and the patient will need another colonoscopy for removal as an outpatient. Hcts remained stable and he was called out to the floor for observation. He passed two more clots of old blood per rectum while on the floor, then had no further bleeding for more than 24 hours. Patient was discharged home but told to return if he had any further bleeding or if he developed lightheadedness. He was told to schedule a followup appointment with his PCP for as soon as possible on Monday morning. Because of his history of PUD, he was re-started on omeprazole 20mg daily; he states he does not have any gastritis or reflux symptoms but will discuss whether or not this medication is needed with his PCP. # Hyperkalemia: Patient has had this in the past in the setting of ARF; on admission, his creatinine was slightly elevated which likely contributed to hyperkalemia. There were no associated EKG changes and the K trended down through the course of his ICU stay. # Acute Renal Failure: His baseline creatinine 1.1-1.3 over the last 2 years and on admission his creatinine was high-normal for him at 1.3. This was thought likely [1-4] pre-renal azotemia. His medications were renally dosed and the creatinine trended down during the course of his ICU stay after transfusion. # Left Bundle Branch Block: Patient did not have a history of LBBB including on an EKG 5 months prior to admission. As he had a syncopal event in the ED, which was thought likely vasovagal in setting of BRBPR, cardiac enzymes were cycled to rule out cardiac event. Enzymes remained negative. EKG remained unchanged although on telemetry patient noted to have intermittent LBBB. It was thought likely this LBBB was related to age-related degeneration of the cardiac conduction system and less likely ACS so no further workup was pursued. Repeat EKG showed persistent LBBB, not rate related. Patient would benefit from Echocardiogram as an outpatient. # Communication: Patient and Wife [Doctor Last Name 2048], currently in [Country 2560]): [Telephone/Fax (5) 41142] [Telephone/Fax (3) 41143] # Code: Full (discussed with patient) Medications on Admission: None Discharge Medications: 1.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. [Known lastname 41141], You were admitted with bleeding in your GI tract. We performed a CAT scan of your abdomen and a colonoscopy, and found that you have a condition called "diverticulosis". Your bleeding stopped on its own, and you now have a condition called "anemia" (low blood counts from bleeding), which will impove with time as your body recovers. You should eat a high fiber diet (at least 25-30g per day) to avoid further progression of divertiulosis. High fiber can be found in whole wheat products, fruits and vegetables. We also discovered that your blood sugar levels are slightly elevated, which indicates that you may have a condition called "diabetes". It is very important that you see Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] for follow up to have this treated. No changes have been made to your medications, but it appears that you have previously been prescribed Omeprazole for reflux, which you may continue to take if you would like. We will give you a prescription which you may fill. Please follow up with your PCP [Last Name (NamePattern4) ]. [Last Name (STitle) ] within 2 weeks to have your blood counts monitored.

He was found to have a LLL medial wall arterial "[Last Name (un) 70229]" gushing fresh blood, which was cauterized. He also had a large cast of clot/tissue/tumor in the LLL which was removed and sent for pathology. He was sent to the SICU post-procedure where he remained hemodynamically stable and was extubated without difficulty. He was sent to the medicine floor team at this point where he remained hemodynamically stable with no evidence of recurrent bleeding. Because of his morbid obesity, he could not undergo any further imaging (CT, MRI, etc) to evaluate for potential causes of his massive hemoptysis. The tissue sent from his bronchoscopy returned as clot only, and cytology on the bronchial brushings was negative. He was arranged to have follow up with interventional pulmonology for a repeat bronchscopy in [4-15] weeks. For his sleep apnea, he was continued on nightly BiPAP per his home regimen. His sister brought in his BiPAP machine fromhome (since he didn't tolerate the hospital's machine) and it accidentally fell and broke while in-house. He was set up to have a new machine delivered to his home immediately after discharge. Due to this bleeding and lack of documented CAD, his aspirin was held while in-house and he was advised to continue holding it, unless directed otherwise by his PCP. For his depression, he was started on Effexor 225mg daily (he had previously been on this dose before running out and never refilled his prescriptions). A social work consult saw the patient and referred him to the Disabled Persons Protection Commission and gave him the phone number for [Hospital3 40709] Commission homemaker services for assistance due to his morbid obesity. He was set up with PCP follow up for the day after discharge since he hadn't seen his PCP in over [Name Initial (PRE) ] year.

Notable leukocytosis to 22k range and concern for underlying PNA. Additional imaging with chest CT revealed loculated right pleural effusion with pleural thickening suggestive of an empyema as well as smaller left sided effusion. Zosyn was initiated on [1-20] and chest tube was placed at OSH with failure to obtain any pleural fluid. Outside hospital labs were significant for leukocytosis 22.2 ([1-19]: 10.7); HCT 43; Na: 135; Co2: 32.7; Creatinine 1.7 (prior 0.9); U tox negative. . He was transferred to [Hospital1 18] [Location (un) 86] SICU for additional thoracics evaluation for potential VATS/pigtail placement vs. decortication but thoracics team did not feel imaging or clinical picture suggestive of true empyema and feels this is a chronic effusion that does not need to be drained. SICU vitals on arrival to [Hospital1 18] [Location (un) 86] on [1-20] were: HR 93, BP 107/55, RR 24 and O2 sat 97% 3L. Thoracic service had chest tube removed [1-21], this morning. Per SICU team, patient's leukocytosis felt to be secondary to possible PNA vs. UTI given that recent urine studies growing coag negative staph. Patient was started on Vanco/Zosyn at [Location (un) 620] which was continued here over past day. . In addition, at OSH patient went into afib with RVR to 120s and was managed on a combination of digoxin and diltiazem gtt prior to transitioning back to oral beta blocker therapy with fair resolution and HR control (HRs 70-80s). . Also developed ARF over last week as his creatinine on admission to [Hospital1 ] [Location (un) 620] was 0.8 on [1-14] and now up to low 2 range. He had exposure to contrast for CT imaging studies and he was also given lasix for question of CHF exacerbation at OSH which may have been contributing factors. Lasix held here since admission. . Lower extremity doppler done here after transfer for mild LE edema and picked up a right LE DVT with thrombus within the right superficial femoral vein and within the right popliteal vein. At time of transfer now patient has yet to be started on anticoagulation for DVT. . Lastly, patient also complained of some vague abdominal pains and per reports he had question of obstruction at OSH so KUB performed with with nonspecific bowel gas pattern. Here in SICU patient has had healthy bowel sounds but mild LLQ tenderness. No BM since transferred at 10pm last night, no nausea, no vomiting. Of note, history of diverticulosis. . At time of transfer to general medicine service on [1-21] patient appeared to be in no apparent distress but seems confused which is near typical baseline per family. Vitals signs at time of transfer: T98.3, BP 110/67, HR 89, RR 16 and 02 Saturation 97% 3L. . Review of systems: Patient unable to cooperate so ROS limited.

IMAGING: . [1-22] CXR: The examination is compared to [2102-1-21]. In the interval, the patient has received a right-sided PICC line. The tip of the line projects over the lower SVC. There is no evidence of complications, notably no pneumothorax. Otherwise, the radiograph is unchanged. [1-21] CXR - FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, the right-sided chest tube has been removed. Minimal right pleural thickening, minimal left pleural effusion. No evidence of pneumothorax. . [1-20] CXR - FINDINGS: Small lung volumes. Borderline size of the cardiac silhouette, small left pleural effusion, small platelike right atelectasis. On the right, the patient has a chest tube. The sidehole of the tube is outside the pleural cavity and projects over the soft tissues. There is no evidence of pneumothorax. . [1-20] RLE Ultrasound: Thrombus within the right superficial femoral vein, with total occlusion seen in the mid portion and partial occlusion seen in the proximal portion. The distal portion is patent. Patent right common femoral vein, which contains a catheter. Small isolated nonocclusive thrombus within the right popliteal vein. Non-compressible thrombus demonstrated in at least one right deep calf vein. No DVT detected within the left lower extremity. The left peroneal veins were not assessed as the patient refused further evaluation. 6. 3.0 x 2.1 x 2.7 cm right groin hematoma, without internal flow. . OUTSIDE HOSPITAL IMAGES: [1-19]: Chest CT: MDCT of the chest was done with intravenous infusion of 100 cc Omnipaque 300. Sagittal and coronal reformatted images were obtained. There is a moderate posterior right pleural effusion. Suggestion of thickening and enhancement of the surrounding pleural surfaces. There is minimal swelling of the overlying soft tissue as well. There is a minimal posterior left pleural effusion. There is anterior pericardial thickening or a small loculated anterior pericardial effusion. Streaky pulmonary parenchymal densities bilaterally, consistent with subsegmental atelectasis and/or scarring. There is scattered atherosclerotic calcification. The heart and mediastinal structures are otherwise unremarkable. No lymphadenopathy is identified. There is no significant chest wall abnormality. IMPRESSION: POSTERIOR RIGHT PLEURAL EFFUSION. EVIDENCE FOR SURROUNDING PLEURAL THICKENING AND ENHANCEMENT SUGGESTS THE POSSIBILITY OF EMPYEMA; VERY SMALL POSTERIOR LEFT PLEURAL EFFUSION. MINIMAL PERICARDIAL THICKENING OR LOCULATED PERICARDIAL EFFUSION. . TTE OSH: Ejection fraction is 55%. He has mild aortic stenosis, normal tricuspid valve, normal pulmonary valve, no pulmonary hypertension. Overall findings of his echocardiogram similar to one from [2099]. . [1-15] OSH: RLE ULtrasound: NONCOMPRESSIBILITY OF THE RIGHT SUPERFICIAL FEMORAL TO POPLITEAL VEIN BUT WITH NORMAL COLOR FLOW ON DOPPLER STUDIES. AUGMENTATION STUDIES OF THESE SEGMENTS WERE NOT PERFORMED. FINDINGS ARE SUGGESTIVE OF CHRONIC DVT. NO DVT WAS SEEN IN THE OTHER LEG, THE LEFT LOWER EXTREMITY . CARDIAC: EKG on [1-18]: afib with RVR in low 100s range . MICROBIOLOGY: [1-20] Blood cx - pending [1-20] Urine cx - no growth . OSH Urine studies [1-16]--> Urine tox was positive for opiates, positive for trace blood, trace ketones, no white blood count. Micro urine: Coag-negative staph, 25-50, organisms per mL. Blood culture is negative. Brief Hospital Course: In summary, Mr. [Known lastname ] is a 74 year old male with longstanding COPD on home O2, dCHF, atrial fibrillation, admission for PNA/dyspnea now s/p chest tube placement (then removal) for questionable empyema who continues to recuperate on IV antibiotics without any additional thoracic procedures. Please see below for more detailed hospitalization summary: . #Shortness of breath /effusions, healthcare associated PNA: Mr. [Known lastname ] has longstanding COPD at baseline and requires home O2 2.5L nasal cannula. He arrived to OSH with notable dyspnea worse from typical baseline. This was initially attributed to possible diastolic CHF exacerbation in setting of poorly controlled atrial fibrillation. He was given generous amounts of IV lasix at [Hospital1 18] [Location (un) 620] but continued to have some worse shortness of breath. CXR showed bilateral effusions. However, review of older images shows these are chronic, fairly stable effusions and seem a less likely cause for acute worsened dyspnea. Given elevated WBC to peak 22k, recent malaise, poor PO intake and shortness of breath there was clinical suspicion for underlying PNA with worse local inflammatory/irritation and COPD flare up as patient with very poor pulmonary reserve. The differential also includes possible underlying malignancy given his declining state x months, prominent smoking history and and note of pleural thickening on recent CT chest. In terms of CHF, recent BNP in 1000s range, h/o mainly diastolic CHF with EF 55% on TTE just days ago. After concern for possible underlying complicated loculated effusion with CT chest questioning empyema, patient underwent right sided chest tube placement at outside hospital but no pleural fluid able to be collected. He was then transferred to [Hospital1 18] [Location (un) 86] Surgical ICU service with urgent thoracic surgery consult. Thoracic surgery team felt patient had very minimal effusions on imaging and did not feel CT chest imaging constituted a true empyema picture. Thus, thoracic surgery felt a repeat attempt at thoracentesis or any other invasive procedures like IR guided pigtail drain placement or VATS/decortication would only be of minimal or no benefit given very small amount of pleural fluid which was felt to be chronic as patient has had similar fluid at lung bases in previous imaging. Chest tube was removed in SICU and patient transferred to medical service where he was continued on plan for 8 days continued broad coverage for hospital acquired PNA with IV Vancomycin and Zosyn. Blood cultures with no growth. Also continued patient on PRN nebulizers, Advair inhaler, Spiriva, chest physical therapy routine and he was eventually weaned down to usual home 2L O2 nasal cannula. At time of discharge he had no fevers, WBCs in normal range, and no complaints of cough or shortness of breath. . #Leukocytosis: Trend with initial rise from [1-14] admission and then resolved after 2-3 days of being on IV Vancomycin/Zosyn therapy. WBC trend 10-> 22-> 19-->10--> 8 prior to discharge. Remained afebrile after his transfer to medicine service on [1-21]. Most probable source was underlying PNA. Although there was some initial concern for UTI as his urine grew out coag negative staphylococcus (25-50 only) at OSH. However, a repeat urinalysis and urine culture collected [1-20] showed no significant evidence for any UTI. Moreover, patient had no complaints of dysuria, urgency, or frequency. He had some mild tenderness over his abdominal midline and left side but he stated this was chronic and due to history of ventral hernia. He had no concerning abdominal cramps, nausea or emesis prior to discharge. He did have a few loose stools which were felt to be a side effect of his antibiotics. As above, plan is to continue broad IV Abx with Zosyn/Vancomycin for HAP up until [1-27] for full 8 day course. . #Right LE DVT: Mild edema was noted on the right lower extremity. Imaging with ultrasound demonstrated a mixed picture of possible mixture of both some newer/older thrombi. Patient very immobile at baseline which increases his risk. He was started on weight based IV heparin gtt with close PTT monitoring and started on daily oral Coumadin with plan for at least 3 months of therapy. His heparin was stopped on [1-24] when his INR rose to 2.3 (on 4mg of coumadin) on the evening of [1-24] he got 2mg of coumadin. His INR the morning of discharge was 5.1 (goal INR [3-2]) and his coumadin is being held. His INR should be followed daily and coumadin restarted at 1 mg once his INR is <3. He will need 3 months of coumadin treatment for his DVT. He should discuss with his PCP whether he needs to stay on coumadin longer for his A fib. He has no significant GI bleeding in past but he is a slight fall risk at this time which makes longer term anticoagulation decision making more challenging as risks/benefits need to be discussed further. . #Atrial fibrillation: Currently rate controlled with HRs 80s-low 100s range. At home had been on PO diltiazem regimen and needed placement on dilt drip, digoxin, and additional metoprolol while at [Hospital1 18] [Location (un) 620]. He was transitioned to once daily Toprol XL 150 mg the morning of discharge. ****He did have one episode of emesis and a single dose of metoprolol tartrate 25mg was given as it is unclear whether he vomited his AM [Name (NI) 8864] dose.***** His metoprolol dose will likely need to be further uptitrated for tighter HR control. He had a CHADS score of 3 and a concomitant diagnosis of RLE DVT and is on coumadin (currently with supratherapeutic INR as above). His worsing a fib could have been due to hypovolemia volume shifts vs. infection as outlined above. He was ruled out for acute cardiac syndromes with biomarkers at OSH. Digoxin was stopped early on in his admission and no additional diltiazem was used as he did very well on metoprolol po TID which was transitioned to toprol XL as above . #ARF: Baseline is near 0.9-1.0 range and peaked up to Cr 2.1 range on [1-20]. His creatinine was 0.9 on the day pf discharge. Causes include recent contrast exposure with CT studies, pre-renal causes in setting of OSH lasix dosing. FeUrea <35% and urine electrolyte profile favored pre-renal causes. Renal dysfunction from antibiotics/AIN was also considered but he only had a very scant amount of eosinophils in urine making this less probable. Vancomycin was renally dosed and troughs monitored. His vanco trough was 34.7 on [1-24] and 19.8 on [1-25]. His vancomycin dosing was decreased to 1 gram q24 hrs and a dose was given the morning of [1-25]. Gentle IVFs given to patient and his Lasix was held for several days and his creatinine improved back to his baseline. . #Hypertension, benign: Well controlled and normotensive during hospital course. Continued on beta blocker as above with no need to add other agents. His home diltiazem was discontinued. . #COPD, chronic: At baseline on home oxygen at 2.5L by time of discharge. Currently has O2 saturations in the mid 90s range and has no complaints of worse wheeze or shortness of breath. His cough has now resolved. As above, continued home Advair and tiatropium inhaler medications, gave nebulizers PRN, chest physical therapy and treated PNA with broad antibiotics. . #Chronic diastolic CHF: History of noted diastolic CHF. Recent notes [First Name8 (NamePattern2) ] [Location (un) 620] with last TTE EF%55, mild aortic stenosis, normal tricuspid valve, normal pulmonary valve, no pulmonary hypertension. TTE findings similar to that from [2099]. Initially appears intravascularly hypovolemic to euvolemic on exam with no JVP despite mild overloaded picture on CXR. Very minimal LE edema (R>L ; DVT RLE). Continued patient on strict I/O checks, Na restriction diet. Held lasix briefly while ARF resolved and restarted home Lasix 20mg daily (restarted on [1-24]). . # Code Status: full code; confirmed with patient . #.

You were admitted to outside hospital with shortness of breath, poor appetite, and fatigue. You were then transferred from [Hospital1 18] [Location (un) 620] after imaging of your chest with plain x-rays and chest CT revealed concern for possible complicated pneumonia and worse pleural effusions or fluid on the lungs. You had a chest tube at outside hospital to attempt to drain this fluid but because it was a very small amount it was unable to be successfully drained. . You were sent to [Hospital1 18] [Location (un) 86] for additional management of a suspected complicated pneumonia and for further evaluation with the thoracic surgical team. The thoracic surgery specialists did not feel you needed any further procedures or surgeries. Your pneumonia was managed with IV antibiotics, increased supplemental oxygen and nebulizer treatments to help with shortness of breath. You had no additional fevers and your breathing was back to your usual baseline on 2.5L oxygen via nasal cannula by time of discharge. Please continue the remainder of your antibiotics as prescribed while your pneumonia continues to resolve. You will need a repeat chest x-ray with your PCP, [Last Name (NamePattern4) ]. [First Name (STitle) ] in about 4-6 weeks time. . You also had recurrence of your known abnormal heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation. Your rapid heart rate was eventually controlled on higher doses of metoprolol which should be continued as an outpatient. The medical team diagnosed you with acute kidney injury as well which was attributed to dehydration and effects from a diuretic medication (for your diastolic congestive heart failure treatment) called Lasix. After getting gentle IV fluids and holding your lasix for several days your kidney function returned to [Location 213]. . After notice of right lower extremity swelling you had an ultrasound study which revealed a blood clot in your leg called a deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Therefore you were started on blood thinning medications called heparin (IV given) and Coumadin. You will need to continue your outpatient Coumadin therapy for at least 3 months, perhaps longer. Total length of therapy needs to be discussed with Dr. [First Name (STitle) ], your PCP. . Please see below for all of your outpatient follow-up appointment instructions. . MEDICATION CHANGES/INSTRUCTIONS: The following new medications were started: 1. Coumadin daily therapy for your right lower leg blood clot and atrial fibrillation (prevents strokes). INR level needs lab monitoring closely on this medicine (INR goal [3-2]) 2. Toprol XL 150mg daily for heart rate control 3. IV Vancomycin and IV Zosyn until [1-27]. 4. oxycodone 2.5mg q8hrs as needed for low back pain 5. bisacodyl, senna, and colace as needed for constipation 6. Mirtazepine 15mg before bed for appetite stimulation and improved mood effects 7. Aspirin 325mg daily 8. Zofran 4mg as needed for nausea The following medications were discontinued: -diltiazem The following medications were continued at their previous dose: 1. Lasix 20mg PO daily 2. albuterol inhaler as needed for shortness of breath or wheeze 3. Advair inhaler twice a day 4. Spiriva inhaler daily Followup Instructions: Please make a follow-up appointment with Dr. [First Name8 (NamePattern2) 429] [Last Name (NamePattern1) ] at #[Telephone/Fax (1) 16171] after you are discharged from rehab Completed by:[2102-1-25**]	[ "486", "42731", "4280", "496" ]

THe hemoptysis was about "the bottom of a cup" and is present every time she coughs something up. At baseline she has a greenish sputum, that is unchanged from prior. She denies any CP, other than her usual CP. She reports fevers several days prior for two days. She had one episode of vomiting yesterday, when she brought up food contents, but denies any hematemesis. She denies headaches, abd pain, nausea, diarrhea, melena, dysuria. She has occ orthopnea and sleeps on 3 pillows. She has stable atypical CP, unchanged from prior. She reports a "40lb weight loss over 40 days". she reports her granddaughter was recently sick with "pneumonia". . In the ED the pt was satting 88% on her home 4L. She received combivent, prednisone 60 and azithromycin in ED. An ABG was done and showed 7.34/60/106 which is close to the patient's baseline. The pt was also found to be in acute renal failure and a CT was not advisable. A VQ scan was ordered and the pt was started on a Heparin gtt. 1L NS was given.

EKG: Sinus arrhythmia with atrial and ventricular premature beats. Compared to the previous tracing of [2199-5-29] baseline artifact is not seen and rhythm change is new. . Echo The left atrium is normal in size. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size, and systolic function are normal (LVEF>55%). Transmitral Doppler imaging is consistent with normal LV diastolic function. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. There is no pericardial effusion. Compared with the report of the prior study (images unavailable for review) of [2198-4-20], the left ventricular function has normalized. . CHEST, ONE VIEW: Comparison with [2199-5-31], [2199-5-29]. Cardiac, mediastinal, and hilar contours are unchanged; right heart border obscuration again seen, as seen on previous examinations. Again identified is severe apical emphysema. This may accentuate the appearance of lower lobe vascular crowding. Linear atelectasis identified at the left lung base. No pleural effusion. No pneumothorax. Osseous structures appear unchanged. IMPRESSION: Similar appearance of severe apical emphysema and lower lobe vascular crowding, without significant change since [2199-5-27] examinations. . CHEST, PA AND LATERAL: The marked upper lobe bullous emphysema is unchanged. This accentuates the appearance of lower lobe vascular crowding. There is no focal consolidation. No pleural effusions are present. The cardiac size, mediastinal and hilar contours are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: Biapical bullous emphysema without pneumonia. Brief Hospital Course: # COPD exacerbation: Patient was treated with IV steroids, azithromycin, and [Year (4 digits) 1988] nebs with improvement back to her baseline. She was discharged home on a slow prednisone [Year (4 digits) 15123]. She is on continuous oxygen at home at baseline. . # Hemoptysis: Given patient reported no risk factors for PE and had no lower extremity swelling on exam, work-up for PE was deferred. Patient improved quickly to her baseline with treatment of her COPD flare and her hemoptysis resolved. Patient denies any history of weight loss, but CT chest without contrast (given poor renal function) could be considered to further investigate for evidence of malignancy. . # Acute renal failure: Patient's creatinine returned to her baseline off her ACE and with supportive IVF. She was discharged off her ACEI, given her potassium has been running high. She will follow-up with her primary care doctor to discuss restarting this medication if her creatinine and potassium remain stable. # Type 2 diabetes: Patient's sugars were difficult to control while patient was on steroids. [Last Name (un) ] was consulted and recommended starting NPH, in addition to increasing the patient's home glipizide. The patient received teaching with a glucometer and was able to check her sugars confidently prior to [Last Name (un) ]. She was given a schedule to wean her NPH as her steroid dose is decreased and she will have close follow-up at [Last Name (un) ]. . # Somnolence/Pysch: Patient was noted to be intermittently somnolent. The concern in the ICU was for C02 retention; however, repeat ABGs were no different from her baseline. Patient's neuroleptics were held with improvement in sx. She remains on Depakote; risperidal held; and seroquel reduced to 50 mg po qhs. . # CHF: Repeat Echo actually demonstrated improvement in EF to normal. Blood pressure well controlled on her home diltiazem, in addition to newly started nifedipine in the setting of elevated bp's off her ACEI. . # EPS: During her hospitalization noted to be intermittently jittery. Initial concern was ?myoclonic jerks. Repeat ABGs without change in C02. Seen by Neuro/Psych who felt etiology likely secondary to EPS and steroids. Changes to neuroleptics as described above. . # Sinus tachycardia: On the floor, patient had rare bursts of a SVT which appears to be sinus tachycardia. Cardiology was consulted for telemetry and 12 ld concerning for possible afib/flutter but felt this was consistent with sinus tachycardia with background noise from her tremor. . # Bipolar disorder: Patient's psychiatric medications were adjusted, as above. Her mood remained stable on steroids, without evidence of mania. She denies any insomnia. . # Hyperkalemia: Patient had an episode of hyperkalemia while off her ACEI. Renal was consulted. FEK 23%, thus low suspicion for hyporeninemic hypoaldosterone state. CK was normal so no evidence of rhabdo. Renal suspects hyperK due to dietary noncompliance. Patient was put on a renal diet and received nutrition counseling on continuing on this diet at home. Her potassium remained stable and will be rechecked as an outpatient.

She states that over the course of the week she experienced progressing shortness of breath and chills. She states that on the day PTA, she lost her balance and fell and lay there as she was unable to make it to the phone for about 6 hours. Her daughter found her. The next day, her daughter found her to be febrile to 103 and brought her to [Location (un) 20026] Hospital. . Initially, on admission to NWH, she was febrile but normotensive. CXR revealed both PNA and fluid overload. BNP 1099. LENI's of her lower extremities were performed due to complaint of calf pain with ambulation; both extremities negative for DVT. She was given Lasix 40 mg IV, and her BP dropped to 60's and she was started on dopamine. She also was treated with Vancomycin, ceftriaxone, and azithromycin. She was placed on NRB for her oxygentation and heparin gtt in the setting of elevated troponins (TropI to 0.9) and transferred to [Hospital1 18] for further care. . On arrival to the [Hospital1 18] ER, she had a head CT and CXR and started on CPAP prior to her transfer to the MICU. At this time, she reported that her shortness of breath was improving. She denied chest pain, and ROS revealed only one loose BM per day for the past 1 week. . In the MICU, she required mask ventilatory support and Levophed for BP support. A right subclavian CVL and left A-line were placed. Levophed was quickly titrated off, and she was transferred to the general medicine service on 4L NC for further care. Past Medical History: 1.

Neuro: A&O x 3, moves all ext, 5/5 strength upper and lower ext. Mentating at baseline, per daughter. Pertinent Results: EKG - nsr, left axis, rbbb with lafb, no sig changes compared to previous. . [12-17] - CXR: Mild cardiomegaly. Increased opacities in bilateral lower lobes, especially on the right with effusion and atelectasis. Increased vascular markings in upper lobes. These findings can be explained worsening CHF, however, there is a possibility of right lower lobe pneumonia. . Head CT - Chronic small vessel ischemia. No evidence of hemorrhage. . [12-18] Echo: 1. The left atrium is moderately dilated. The left atrium is elongated. The right atrium is markedly dilated. 2. Left ventricular wall thicknesses are normal. The left ventricular cavity size is normal. Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF>55%). [Intrinsic left ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of valvular regurgitation.] 3.The right ventricular cavity is markedly dilated. There is focal hypokinesis of the apical free wall of the right ventricle. Right ventricular systolic function appears depressed. There is abnormal septal motion/position consistent with right ventricular pressure/volume overload. 4.The ascending aorta is moderately dilated. 5.The aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. 6.The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Moderate (2+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The mitral regurgitation jet is eccentric. 7.Moderate to severe [3+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. 8.There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. 9.There is no pericardial effusion. There is an anterior space which most likely represents a fat pad. . CXR [2197-12-20]: 1. Marked worsening of pulmonary edema. 2. Worsening of bibasilar consolidation, which may be due to an infectious process or aspiration. . TTE [2197-12-22]: There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size and systolic function (LVEF>55%). Regional left ventricular wall motion is normal. The right ventricular cavity is moderately dilated. There is mild global right ventricular free wall hypokinesis. There is abnormal septal motion/position. There is borderline pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [2197-12-18], the degree of tricuspid regurgitation and pulmonary hypertension are less. The RV is still dilated and hypokinetic. . CXR [2197-12-23] Persistent pulmonary edema. Bilateral pleural effusions. The slight interval increase in the left-sided pleural effusion may be attributable to differences in patient positioning. . CXR [2197-12-27] Compared with [2197-12-23], the posterior left pleural effusion appears grossly unchanged. No significant increase is seen involving the much smaller right pleural effusion. The right lower lobe atelectasis/infiltrate is grossly unchanged. Brief Hospital Course: 85 year old woman with h/o CHF, CAD s/p CABG admitted with pneumonia & CHF exacerbation. . 1. Pneumonia: Likely community acquired PNA. She has been treated with azithromycin, vancomycin, and ceftriaxone; vancomycin d/c'd after 7 days as patient is low-risk for nosocomial MRSA pneumonia. Gram stain and sputum cultures unrevealing. Influenza DFA negative. She completed a 10d of Cef/Azithro. She required supplement O2 at discharge to maintain SpO2>92% (she was down to 1.5L). This should continue to be titrated down. After completing her treatment, she remained afebrile. . 2. CHF: Patient with known h/o CHF. Echo performed during this hospital course show RV dysfunction and dilation (see ECHO reports). Abnormal septal motion/position was felt to be consistent with RV pressure/volume overload. This pulm HTN was not new as she had previously PA HTN from prior to CABG in [2196] and in [6-/2197] - per ECHO done by her primary cardiologist. LVEF normal. It is possible that cause of RV failure is acute pulmonary disease; however, the differential diagnosis includes PE vs. ischemic disease. She had positive trops, but only mildly elevated without EKG changes and thus was felt to be demand related. At [Hospital1 18], our goal for her was for a negative fluid balance, particularly in the setting of worsened pulmonary edema on most recent CXR. After coming off pressors and transfer to floor, the patient was aggressively diuresed with 40mg [Hospital1 ] IV of lasix. We diuresed her with a goal of -2L per day. She still required oxygen upon discharge, but with continued diuresis, this should be able to be weaned down. She was discharged on Lasix 80mg PO BID; Once she is euvolemic and no longer requiring oxygen, she should be switched back to her home dose of Lasix 40mg po daily. She should have repeat electrolytes on [1-1] to ensure her kidney function is stable. She should follow up with her cardiologist in the next 1-2 weeks and have a repeat echocardiogram at that time once she is euvolemic. Initially held BB & [Last Name (un) ] in the setting of hypotension and ?sepsis. These were restarted before discharge. Continued amiodarone per prior regimen. Weight on discharge was 236lb. She was maintained on a low sodium diet. . 3. CAD: Patient with known h/o CAD, s/p CABG. Patient presented with troponin leak (peaking at 0.15) but asymptomatic with no associated EKG changes. She was on a heparin gtt at outside hospital but this was discontinued once enzymes downward trending. Troponin leak was likely secondary to demand ischemia in the setting of pneumonia. Continued ASA, Zetia, Lipitor and BB. . 4. Acute renal failure: Cr elevated to 2.3 on admission (baseline 1.1) with pre-renal etiology (FeNa <1%). Creatinine did continue to increase with diuresis, and on discharge was 1.4. It is likely indicative of appropriate diuresis with relative hypovolemic state, necessary in this patient to keep her dry and prevent pulmonary edema. . 5. Atrial fibrillation: Rate controlled with beta blocker and amiodarone. In sinue rhythm during this hospitalization. Not clear as to why the patient is not anticoagulated as she was anticoagulated in the past. This should be readressed with her cardiologist. . 6. Pulmonary effusion: R sided effusion; ultrasound shows little layering of the fluid. Followed by XRays. Relatively stable on discharge. . 7. Hypothyroidism: continue levothyroxine. . 8. Code Status: Full code. . 9. Communication with daughter [Name (NI) ] ([Telephone/Fax (1) 60685]. PCP: [Last Name (NamePattern4) ]. [First Name (STitle) ] in [Hospital1 ]. . 10.

Admission Date: [2129-4-21] Discharge Date: [2129-4-27] Service: Medicine HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a 75-year-old male with a history of nephrolithiasis and a question of leiomyosarcoma, transferred from [Hospital3 1196] for suspected urosepsis, positive troponin leak in the setting of new atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response, status post cystoscopy with stent placement for obstructing stone with pus. He presented to [Hospital3 1196] with suspected urinary tract infection based on a urinalysis and was given Levaquin after [Hospital3 ] and blood cultures were drawn and then transferred to [Hospital1 69] for further management. Here, he reported fevers, chills, nausea and vomiting times two days. He complained of some mild dysuria times two days without frequency and had one episode of nonbloody emesis and bile. He had normal bowel movements. He last had a urinary tract infection about seven months ago, history requiring intervention, possible cysto. The patient was admitted initially to the Medicine Service, but on the morning of [4-21] complained of fatigue and mild nausea without abdominal pain or back pain. He was sleepy and forgetful at times. A CT scan was done to rule out stone obstruction basically showed large right renal cyst, mild hydronephrosis with periureteral stranding. Overnight events on [4-21] were notable for atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response to 176. He was given Lopressor 5 mg intravenously times three. Dinamap showed blood pressure peaked at 140 there, with blood pressure low of 85/58 and then up to 140s. He spiked and was cultured, and a dose of vancomycin was given. Blood cultures then came back with gram-negative rods in the blood. He had emesis times two on [4-21], and a small bowel movement on [4-21]. In the afternoon of [4-22], he was brought to the operating room for a cystoscopy, a right JJ stent (6 cm X 26 cm) was placed. Pus was drained from behind the obstructing stone. The patient currently denies any chest pain, shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. He only complains of thirst. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: 1. Hypertension. 2. Diverticulitis. 3. Nephrolithiasis; treated by Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 41116] at [Hospital3 1196]. 4. Right groin leiomyosarcoma had caused obstruction in the past; surgery at [Hospital6 1708] with orchiectomy, treated by Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ]. 5. Chronic renal insufficiency with a baseline creatinine of 1.2. 6. Right renal complex calcified cyst last measured at 12 cm X 9 cm (as of [2128-7-25]). ALLERGIES: PENICILLIN causes hives. MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION: Medications at home included Vasotec and Hytrin. MEDICATIONS ON TRANSFER: Medications upon transfer from the floor to the Intensive Care Unit included droperidol, Dulcolax, Colace, Fleets, lactulose, intravenous fluids, Tylenol, Ambien, aspirin, and Levaquin. SOCIAL HISTORY: He is a retired psychiatrist. Son [Doctor First Name ] and daughter ([Name (NI) ]). Occasional alcohol use. He quit tobacco 40 years ago. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION ON PRESENTATION: In general, the patient was sleep but easily arousable, supine, height of 5 feet 11 inches, weight of 250 pounds, temperature of 99, pulse of 105, blood pressure of 138/56, oxygen saturation of 96% on 2 liters nasal cannula. Head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat examination revealed extraocular muscles were intact. Normocephalic and atraumatic. Cardiovascular examination revealed irregularly irregular. Normal first heart sound and second heart sound. No murmurs. Pulmonary examination anterolaterally revealed clear to auscultation. The abdomen revealed normal active bowel sounds but diminished overall, distended, and nontender. Groin with a well-healed inguinal scar, nontender. Extremity examination revealed no edema. Neurologic examination revealed alert and oriented times three, appropriate, moved all extremities. Rectal was guaiac-negative/brown. PERTINENT LABORATORY DATA ON PRESENTATION: Laboratory data on [4-22] revealed sodium of 141, potassium of 3.8, chloride of 108, bicarbonate of 21, blood urea nitrogen of 40, creatinine of 1.8, blood glucose of 105. Creatine kinase was 111, troponin was 18.3, CK/MB of 26, CK/MB index was 23.4. Magnesium of 1.7. Arterial blood gas revealed 7.49/33/93/26. Lactate was 3.8. Blood cultures revealed gram-negative rods, lactose fermenter not specified. [Month (only) ] culture revealed pan-sensitive Escherichia coli, gram-negative rods, lactose fermenter not speciated. RADIOLOGY/IMAGING: KUB revealed nonspecific bowel gas pattern with a few prominent gas-filled small bowel loops, but no evidence of high-grade obstruction. CT of the abdomen on [4-21] revealed a 8-mm obstructing stone in the distal third of the right ureter producing mild hydronephrosis, several other calcifications were noted in the bilateral peripapillary regions, two 12-cm right renal cysts with peripheral calcification was only partially evaluated on the noncontrast examination. Due to the patient's renal failure, a renal magnetic resonance imaging was recommended to exclude a more complex renal mass when clinically indicated. Cholelithiasis without obstruction or cholecystitis. Slight splenomegaly. Linear soft tissue stranding in the right inguinal region of uncertain etiology of significance; please correlate with physical examination and surgical history to exclude an acute inflammatory process. Apparent regions of focal bone loss in L3 vertebral body and right femoral neck were likely degenerative. Pathologic lesions could not be entirely excluded. Electrocardiogram revealed atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response of 160, with ST depressions in the anterior leads of 2 mm to 3 mm. IMPRESSION: This is a 78-year-old man with urosepsis, atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response, and positive cardiac enzymes. HOSPITAL COURSE: 1. INFECTIOUS DISEASE/UROLOGY: The Urology Service followed the patient while in the hospital, status post stent placement with return of pus. The stent was kept in place to be removed several weeks after discharge when the patient was more stable. Only one stone was removed. The patient had evidence of more stones. He was monitored for further signs or symptoms of obstruction. The patient was continued on intravenous Levaquin with the consideration of adding gentamicin if his creatinine tolerated this. Vancomycin was discontinued. Escherichia coli in the [Month (only) ] culture at the outside hospital was pan-sensitive. The patient was continued on aggressive intravenous fluids. Intravenous fluids were discontinued because of evidence of congestive heart failure, and the patient was encouraged to take p.o. hydration. Cultures taken at [Hospital1 69] were negative to date including blood cultures and [Hospital1 ] cultures. Levofloxacin was changed from intravenous to p.o. on [2129-4-24]. The patient experienced some incontinence, and his Pyridium was changed from p.r.n. to a standing dose. Per the Urology team, he was also discharged on Urised two tablets p.o. q.i.d. times 10 days for his incontinence. Levofloxacin was to be continued for a total of 14 days. 2. CARDIOVASCULAR: Atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular rate. The patient was given doses of Lopressor on the floor; a total of 50 mg intravenously. In the Intensive Care Unit, the patient was continued on Lopressor for rate control. He was anticoagulated with heparin, and the plan was to get an echocardiogram on the patient to rule out thrombus. His atrial fibrillation was thought to be triggered by his septic state. The patient's troponin and creatine kinase leak/rise was thought to be ischemia related to sepsis and atrial fibrillation. The patient had no known cardiac history. The patient was anticoagulated with heparin, continued on beta blocker, and continued on aspirin. Creatine kinases and troponins were followed and trended down. The patient remained hemodynamically stable, although with some evidence of congestive heart failure on examination. The patient responded well to diuresis with Lasix. Electrocardiogram which showed ST depressions was repeated with resolution of the ST depressions. The patient was started on captopril 12.5 mg p.o. t.i.d. on [4-23]. Coumadin was also started that day for atrial fibrillation with a plan to follow up with Cardiology as an outpatient. On [4-25], the patient reverted back to sinus rhythm and was well rate controlled with beta blocker. On further consideration, Coumadin was not started, and he was continued on a heparin drip. The patient remained in sinus rhythm for the remainder of his hospital stay. A cardiac echocardiogram was suboptimal secondary to poor echocardiogram windows showing mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy, ejection fraction of greater than 55%, 2+ mitral regurgitation, and mild pulmonary hypertension. He heparin drip was discontinued, but he was continued on his Lopressor and captopril. An outpatient exercise tolerance test will be considered. 3. RENAL: The patient with chronic renal insufficiency with a baseline creatinine of 1.2. This may be secondary to hypertension versus old obstruction. It should not increase in the setting of unilateral obstruction alone, but with sepsis and volume depletion this was not unexpected. He was continued on aggressive hydration; although, this was stopped briefly because of signs and symptoms of congestive heart failure. His [Month (only) ] output was followed as was his creatinine. Medications were renally dosed for a calculated creatinine clearance of 50 cc per minute. The right renal mass seen on CT scan was thought to be chronic, per his primary care physician. [Name10 (NameIs) ] electrolytes and FENa were suggestive of prerenal azotemia in the setting of decreased oral intake secondary to nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain with kidney stone. The patient was to have followup of renal cyst as an outpatient with magnetic resonance imaging or CT with contrast. His renal function improved by the time of discharge with a blood urea nitrogen of 37 and a creatinine of 1.3; almost at his baseline. 4. HEMATOLOGY: The patient with anemia. Guaiac-negative; unknown baseline. Monitored closely on heparin. Coagulations were followed closely on heparin. A decrease in hematocrit may have been secondary to dilution from hydration. On [4-23], the patient had a large liquid stool which was occult-blood positive, but his hematocrit remained stable, and he did not require any transfusions. He was continued on Protonix. 5. ONCOLOGY: Leiomyosarcoma without a history of metastatic disease. A head CT in the past was negative for metastatic lesions; though bony lesions were concerning on CT scan. The patient will need further workup of his L3 vertebral body right femoral neck bony lesions. CONDITION AT DISCHARGE: Condition on discharge was stable. DISCHARGE STATUS: Discharge status was to home. MEDICATIONS ON DISCHARGE: 1. Urised two tablets p.o. q.i.d. p.r.n. 2. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d. 3. Protonix 40 mg p.o. q.d. 4. Lopressor 100 mg p.o. t.i.d. 5. Vasotec (previous home dose). 6. Hytrin (previous home dose). 7. Levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. q.d. (times 12 days). DISCHARGE DIAGNOSES: 1. Right ureteral stone complicated by urosepsis. 2. Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation; troponin leak. 3. Hypertension. 4. History of diverticulitis. 5. History of leiomyosarcoma; removed several months ago.

([2108-12-12]) History of Present Illness: HPI: 65 M h/o CAD s/p MI in [2085], CHF (EF ~20%), DM2, ESRD on HD (? h/o [Year (4 digits) 2091] with urosepsis, on since [10-18]), admitted [12-6] for bilateral foot gangrene s/p b/l femoral bypass on [12-11] (right leg) and [2107-12-13] (left leg) transferred from vascular service for syncope in setting of V fib. . Patient admitted on [12-6] after noted to have gangrenous changes of both heels while at rehab. Underwent bypass sx w/o complication. On [2108-12-13] pt was finishing ultrafiltration ~1pm (renal note dated early), when he was noted to have a syncopal event for ~10seconds, with telemetry suggestive of VT/VF. He regained consciousness. Per pt, he had no further syncopal episodes. CODE BLUE called ~13:15 for a syncopal event. Pt was hemodynamically stable upon arrival, alert, oriented, breathing without difficulty. EP was called, and per EP interogation of ICD initially felt to have AF with intermittent conversion to NSR, then VT with attempt to ATP unsucessfull resulting in VF which was shocked x 1. . Of note, the prior evening, patient developed hypotension with sys bp in 60's of unknown etiology and was started on phenylephrine gtt with improvement in BP. Per surgical service, this was in the setting of slow VT, though it is unclear whether slow VT was the sole cause of hypotension (ddx includes sepsis, bleeding, adrenal insufficiency POD#1). He was being treated with cipro/flagyl/vanco empirically. . Patient had been in and out of the hospital since end of [Month (only) 359] with recent admissions at OSH for CHF exacerbation, UTI and syncopal episode [10-18] [1-12] afib with RVR. Discharged to rehab. Noted to be in V-tach at rehab during syncopal episode in 3rd week of [Month (only) ]. per pt, CPR was administered and he was defibrillated. However, upon reevaluation of rhythm by his cardiologist, thought to be in afib with aberrancy. No history of syncope prior to [10-18]. At that time, amiodarone was increased and patient was again discharged to rehab. He was also started on hemodialysis for unclear reasons (?allergic reaction to [Last Name (un) ]). . On review of symptoms, positive hx of L LE DVT (~[2104]). Denies any prior history of stroke, TIA pulmonary embolism, bleeding at the time of surgery, myalgias, joint pains, hemoptysis, black stools or red stools. He denies recent fevers, chills or rigors.

ASSESSMENT AND PLAN . 65 M with MMP including CAD s/p MI, CHF(EF 20% s/p BiV/AICD), atrial fibrillation on coumadin, Type II DM, ESRD on HD, admitted for gangrenous heels [1-12] PVD s/p femoral bypass with course complicated by syncopal episode and V-fibrillation s/p AICD cardioversion. . # Bilateral femoral bypass: Underwent surgery on [12-11] and [12-12] for right and left femoral bypass. Procedure was uncomplicated with good distal pulses post procedure. . # Hypotension: Patient became hypotensive requiring pressors. Initially started on neosynephrine drip. Following day patient had syncopal episode secondary to Ventricular tachycardia and Code Blue was called. Given low SVR, normal PA diastolic, borderline leukocytosis and two possible infectious sources including BL gangrene and a mass on the RA lead of his AICD, hypotension was felt to be due to sepsis. Although he initially had a low cardiac index, this was thought to be consistent with CHF with EF of 20%, and unlikley to be due to cardiogenic shock. Attempted to wean neosynephrine, but MAPS dropped down to the 55 range. He did not respond to a 1L fluid bolus so a levophed drip was started to provide pressor support with some inotropy. Patient continued to require pressure support for the remainder of his course in the intesnive care unit. Pancultures were sent and antibiotic coverage was advanced to vancomycin and zosyn. However patient minimally improved. . . # CAD/Ischemia: Hx of MI. No evidence of ischemic changes on ECG. mild trop leak likely [1-12] renal failure, as CK and MB flat. Continued ASA. ACE and beta blocker held in setting of hypotension. Cardiac enzymes were cycled to rule out ischemic source of troponic leak. However cardiac enzymes remained flat. . # Rhythm: Hx of atrial fibrillation on coumadin since [2105]. Recent admission to OSH for syncopal episodes thought to be [1-12] atrial fibrillation with RVR. Being followed by EP during this admission for episodes of asymptomatic slow V-tach and afib, plan had been to cardiovert AFIB, and then ablate slow monomorphic VT, however patient later developed polymorphic VT. The patient had multiple episodes of wide complex tachycardiat. Trend has been that he converts from a paced rhythm, to atrial fibrillation, and then degenerates into either polymorphic or monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. Shocked once by ICD and three times externally overnight on [12-15], and given 2g of magnesium. EP was consulted, recommending to d/c amiodarone given polymorphic VT in the setting of a prolonged QT interval 450-500, start lidocaine gtt and aggressive repletion of electrolytes. Patient was started on mexilitine. However later due to altered mental status was unable to take oral medications. Patient became increasingly unstable with persistent ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation unresponsive to defibrillation by his AICD or externally. As team was unable to convert rhythm, prognosis was poor, he was unstable and requiring increasing pressure support and patient was in distress from persistent shocks, team had discussion with health care proxy and decision was made to change goals of care to comfort measures only. Pressors were discontinued and patient expired soon afterward. . # Pump: EF 20%, s/p ?biV AICD in [2105]. No evidence of frank pulmonary edema, hypotensive requiring pressors with CI 1.8->2.1, likely secondary to class III heart failure with EF of 20%. Therefore CHF regimen held. . # Valves: no evidence of valvular disease on ECHO. . # Thrombus on ICD wire: Reviewed echocardiogram with Dr. [First Name (STitle) ], and the mass is consistent in nature to infection v. inflammatory. Recommending a TEE for further evaluation. However patient was increasingly unstable and unable to tolerate TEE. . # PVD: s/p bilateral bypass surgery. Extremities were cool, but well perfused, with scant blood oozing from L LE thigh wound, though otherwise groin sites were clean/dry/intact. Continued to be followed by vascular surgery throughout course. . # ESRD: etiology of [Name (NI) 2091] unclear(started HD [10-18]), s/p ultrafiltration [2108-12-13], ?stopped prematurely secondary to syncope and hypotension.

The pain is located in the L shoulder scapular to humoral region, with no obvious radation, and was [2156-9-14] in severity. He also describes other chronic pains, including leg and some chest pain with heavy coughing, but these have been stable. He was seen by Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 19] on [1-16], where he was also noted to have some L sided weakness, and was sent for an MRI to evaluate for metastatic disease, which as noted below showed no new changes. He was attempting to increase his decadron as indicated by Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 19], when he couldn't handle the pain this AM, and came to the ED. He has also described some diffuse paresthesias of both fingertips, although primarily on the L--no apparent pattern. Otherwise, he denies focal weakness, numbness, incontinence of stool or urine, urinary retention, HA, as well as any F/C/NS, LH, appetite changes, SOB, N/V, or abdominal pain. He has a chronic cough [3-9] radiation, and also noted poor fluid intake over the past few days, although no apparent reason. He requires a walker to ambulate, but notes no change over the past few days. . In the ED, given dilaudid 4mg IV x 2, with pain that was not completely revolved, but "tolerable."

Pertinent Results: MR [Name13 (STitle) 2853] [2153-1-17]: There is no change from [2152-2-12]. There is metastatic disease at C7-T1 and T2 with collapse of T1 and resultant kyphosis. There is stable epidural disease. There have been posterior laminectomies and there is no spinal cord compression, although there is probably some myelomalacia and atrophy at the level of the surgery, unchanged. * L Shoulder/humerus Plain film: Read pending; no obvious fracture, ? metastatic involvement. . CXR [1-22]: Patchy opacities most prominent in the right lower lobe, worrisome for pneumonia. . CT spine [1-23]: Progression of the lytic osseous and epidural metastases, with progressed malalignment. Fracture through the T2 pedicle screws bilaterally . CTA [1-23]: 1) Right lower and right middle lobe air space consolidation consistent with pneumonia. There appears to be narrowing of the bronchus intermedius. 2) Left lower lobe atelectasis and patchy multifocal bilateral generalized foci of air space disease most likely reflecting consolidations though metastases are not excluded. 3) Progression of osseous vertebral and hepatic metastasis. 4) No evidence of PE. 5) Possible cervical instability. . Bone scan [1-23]: 1) No abnormal uptake in the left upper extremity. 2) Uptakecorresponding to known metastases in the sternum, cervical spine as above. The new uptake in the left 11th and 12th rib ends likely post-traumatic. Brief Hospital Course: 68M thyroid ca to bone + liver p/w increased pain L shoulder/ humerus. Pt was admitted to the Medicine service and treated for the following problems: . # pneumonia: Patient had altered MS and low grade fevers [1-22] and CXR performed which suggested pna. Started on levo/flagyl with concern for aspiration. [1-23], patient had new hypoxia and hemoptysis. Hematocrit has remained stable. CTA negative for PE but did confirm significant pneumonia. No fevers since starting levo/flagyl. . #L shoulder/humerus pain: Evaluated by radiation oncology who felt that risks of radiation in setting of multiple prior episodes was quite high especially given instability. Neurosurgery consulted for cervical spine. His pain was initially difficult to control, but was ultimately dramatically improved when he was changed to a dilaudid PCA--he did not have relief from fentanyl patch, likely b/c of soft tissue wasting and future efforts at long acting medications should be PO. . #thyroid ca, metastatic disease: progressive in spine and likely contributing to current complaints. Levothyroxine was continued. consider neupogen. Will d/w attending Oncologist . # thrush: The patient was admitted with thrush which was succesfully treated with nystatin S&S. Neurosurgery team asked to eval this pt on [2153-1-23] and was transferred to our service for spinal deformity which was noted on upper level of images (CT chest) to r/o PE. CT of cervical thoracic spine was obtained and results of T1 collapse noted. Pts family, at that time wanted to continue care with prior Neurosurgeon/Dr. [Last Name (STitle) 1327]. This was communicated to this neurosurgery team. Some short time later the family wished against transfer out to Dr.[Name (NI) 1334] care and decided that they would want surgery to correct spinal deformity/kyphosis here. The pt was placed in [Last Name (un) 20482] Halo traction at 30lbs of traction. This was in attempt to reduce kyphotic deformity for pre-operative optimization. A CT scan of the spine was obtained in traction and good reduction of the deformity was noted. The pt was then medically optimized and pre-op'd and taken to the OR on [2153-2-8] for C7 T1 T2 corpectomies/ anterior approach. There was a lot of bleeding during the initial anterior approach / the case lasting approximately 7 hours. It was decided that the pt would remain intubated and return to the OR on the 5th (the next day for continuation of the case. The second portion of the case was completed that day (the 5th). Thoracic surgery assisted because of mediastinal mass / we needed sternotomy to control bleeding and complete ant. approach. The total EBL was 7.5 liters with the pt being given 22 units of PRBC's. He had a chest tube placed on the left side intraoperatively. This was removed on approx 1/7/7. Postoperatively he was started on Fondiparinox on [2-13] as he is HIT positive. On [2153-2-14] he had a peg tube place. His postoperative head CT and spine CT's were stable. His neurological status postoperatively was stable. All extremeties are antigravity and his mentation is intact. His course complicated by intermittent low HCT's for which he was transfused. Temps as high as 102.+ for which he was started on Zosyn. On [2153-2-16] his left upper extremity was noted to be swollen and son[Name (NI) ] noted LUE DVT. On the 14th, the halo ring that was initially placed for use of cervical traction and for potential halo vest placement was removed. He remains in a cervical collar and had been OOB to chair. The patient required prolonged ventilation he had difficulty clearing his secretions. His family was offered a trach but they felt the patient had a difficult post operative course and was suffering they did not want to the patient to under go further procedures. The patient had made his wishes clear to his family not to be dependent or on a ventilator for a prolonged period. After a long discussion with the family and Dr [Last Name (STitle) ] they decided to extubate the patient and see if he could tolerate being extubated, he quickly passed away in a few minutes with his family at his side.

Patient initially presented to [Hospital3 3583] on [2106-10-3] with right-sided rib pain, nausea, vomiting (x 1 day) and loose stools (4-5 per day x 1 month, non-bloody). He was found to have a total bilirubin of 1.9, ast 71 and alt of 76; also with elevated white blood cell count of 18.6. Patient had an abdominal CT scan on admission which showed fluid in the colon consistent with enteritis vs colitis. He was started on iv ciprofloxacin and metronidazole. Stool was negative for C.difficile. GI (Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] was consulted, reviewed the CT scan with radiology - stable dilation of the CBD compared to [2102] and [2101] with dilation all the way to the ampulla and no intraluminal abnormality/stone seen; also with stable segmental intrahepatic dilation that appears to be related to previous liver surgery. Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] was concerned for biliary obstruction however patient unable to have MRCP due to pacemaker. Per patient's request was transferred to [Hospital1 18] for further evaluation.

Brief Hospital Course: 57 year old male with pmhx significant for CAD s/p CABG and LAD stent, porcine tricuspid valve, complete heart block s/p pacemaker, hypertension, GERD, biliary stricture s/p CCY and MVA [2071] s/p multiple abdominal surgeries including partial liver resection who was transferred from [Hospital3 3583] with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea from likely infectious colitis. Hospital course was complicated by the development of symptomatic atrial fibrillation/ atrial flutter requiring TEE cardioversion. 1. presumed colitis: Patient transferred from OSH with nausea/ vomiting/ diarrhea from likely infectious colitis. CT scan at OSH was compatible with diagnosis of acute colitis vs enteritis, although patient's complaint of diarrhea appears to be more chronic and may warrant further outpatient evaluation. Abdominal ultrasound, stool studies were negative including repeat cdiff toxin although cdiff pcr was still pending at the time of discharge. Symptoms improved with conservative management of initial bowel rest followed by BRAT diet, demerol for pain control (given multiple analgesic allergies) and cipro/flagyl. He was discharged to complete an 8 day course of antiobiotics to end on [2106-10-9]. Clostridium difficile pcr will need to be followed as an outpatient. 2. atrial fibrillation/ atrial flutter: complained of symptomatic palpitations with dyspnea x 1 month prior to admission. On further investigation, patient was found to have intermittent afib/ flutter with HR up to 160s resulting in dyspnea and anxiety although otherwise hemodynamically stable. He was transferred to the ICU for further evaluation. Etiology of arrhythmia was unclear: CTA negative for PE at OSH, TSH within normal limitis, ruled out for cardiac ischemia although echo showed biventricular dysfunction. Electrophysiology was consulted to interrogate pacemaker and found that mode switch off device was tracking atrial flutter with resultant ventricular rate of 120-130 bpm. Pacer was readjusted with immediate releif of symptoms of palpitations and 'impending sense of doom.' However, remained in a-fib wih occasional bursts of tachycardia, despite increased b-blocker dosing, so Cariology recommended cardioversion. He subsequently had an elective TEE guided cardioversion and was started on dabigatran [Hospital1 ] for anticoagulation. He was able to ambulate around the ICU with stable heart rate and no significant symptoms. He was discharged home with increased metoprolol dose of 75mg [Hospital1 ], dabigatran [Hospital1 ] and was placed on [Initials (NamePattern4) ] [Last Name (NamePattern4) ] of hearts monitor x 2 weeks to assess for significant remaining arrhythmias. He will follow up with Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] to discuss further treatment and evaluation. 3. R.sided rib pain: osh film with healing 8th and 9th rib fractures - no new trauma, ? healing from injury in [2106-7-26] and if so unclear why pain improved and is now worsening; PE ruled out by negative CTA; no evidence of PNA; ROMI negative at OSH and at [Hospital1 18], making ischemia unlikely. Pain was managed conservatively with demerol and lidocaine patch prn with resolution of symptoms through hospital course. 4. Leukocytosis: likely due to infectious colitis as further infectious evaluation negative including blood, urine and stool cultures. Downtrended throughout hospital course and was normal at the time of discharge. 5. CAD/HTN: As above, no signs of active ischemia per EKG and serial cardiac enzymes. Maintained on home plavix and statin with addition of ASA 81mg. Bblocker was uptitrated for AV nodal blockade. 6. Anxiety: patient complained of significant anxiety relating to palpitations through hospital course which was managed by ativan prn. Transitions of care: # afib/ flutter s/p d/c cardioversion: - KOH monitor x 2 weeks - dabigatran [Hospital1 ] for anticoagulation until cardiology follow up - bblocker uptitration - follow up with Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ] # colitis: - complete antibiotic course - f/u cdiff pcr Medications on Admission: Outpatient medications (per osh admission h and p): plavix 75mg daily ativan 1mg po prn metoprolol xl 50mg daily zantac 150mg [Hospital1 ] crestor 40mg daily .

Admission Date: [2172-9-29] Discharge Date: [2172-10-2] Date of Birth: [2114-3-3] Sex: F Service: TRAUMA [Last Name (un) ] HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient presented after a moderate speed motor vehicle crash on the [Location (un) 26358] around 30 miles per hour. She was the restrained driver. There was no air bag in the car. Partially recalls events. No definite loss of consciousness. The patient was walking at the scene with assistance. Initially she complained of chest pain where the seat belt was. On presentation her vital signs were temperature of 98.8, heart rate 88, blood pressure 107/66, sats 99% on 2 liters nasal cannula, respiratory rate 18. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: Hypertension. Fibromyalgia. Status post C5-C6 discectomy after previous motor vehicle crash with small bowel repair. Status post hysterectomy. Bilateral mammoplasty. MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION: Fentanyl 25 mcg patch every 72 hours, aspirin, Prilosec 20 q.day, Prozac 60 q.day, nortriptyline 50 q.h.s., Klonopin 1.5 mg q.h.s. ALLERGIES: Penicillin causes hives. PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: On presentation she was alert, awake and oriented. Pupils were equal and reactive to light. There was a small right subconjunctival hemorrhage. No ptosis. Vision was intact. Trachea was midline. Heart was regular rate and rhythm. Chest had moderate ecchymosis and hematoma forming on her right breast and right flank. She had lacerations with muscle involvement to her chin, right upper eyelid and above her nose. Abdomen was soft. There was significant ecchymosis along the lower abdomen from a seat belt injury. No rebound, no guarding. Guaiac was negative, good rectal tone. She had abrasions to both knees. Strength was [6-6] in all extremities. Sensation slightly decreased at the fourth and fifth left fingers. Cranial nerves were intact. Toes downward bilaterally. LABORATORY DATA: On admission hematocrit was 33.9. BUN and creatinine were 18 and 0.8, sodium 140, K 4.3. PT/PTT 12.1 and 25.1, INR 0.9. EKG was within normal limits. Chest x-ray showed no fracture, no pneumothorax. Lateral C-spine was clear to C-5. Pelvis no fracture. CT head no bleed. CT neck no fracture. CT chest showed a large right breast hematoma. CT pelvis abdomen no free fluid or traumatic event. ASSESSMENT: This is a 58 year old woman status post motor vehicle crash with a large right breast hematoma. Studies otherwise negative except for a significant amount of bleeding into her breast which was increasing in size as well as subconjunctival hemorrhage and the facial lacerations. HOSPITAL COURSE: She was admitted to the SICU for hemodynamic monitoring and had serial hematocrits, serial abdominal exams. She received IV fluids, pneumoboots and Protonix. The patient also reported that she was on the way back from the dentist where she was supposed to start erythromycin for a tooth abscess, so we put her on clindamycin 600 q.eight. On her admission hospital day her C-spine was attempted to be cleared given that she had CT scan of her neck which did not show any fracture or dislocation. However, on palpation of the bones of the cervical vertebrae she had tenderness, therefore, the collar was kept on and neurosurgery was consulted. In the SICU she basically had an uneventful course. However, her hematocrit did continue to decrease slightly and the patient had a transfusion of two units given for hematocrit less than 25, approximately 23.4. Facial lacerations were sutured in the emergency department and continued to be treated with bacitracin. She was on fentanyl patch and Neurontin for pain medications which she tolerated. The patient was found to also have a left fourth finger distal phalanx fracture without displacement and plastic surgery was consulted for her hand. They put her in a splint and gave her followup instructions. The patient was transferred to the floor with stable hematocrit. Physical therapy saw her and she was able to ambulate without difficulty, without assistance. C-collar was in place. Neurosurgery gave their final recommendations. DISPOSITION: To home. CONDITION ON DISCHARGE: Improving. DISCHARGE INSTRUCTIONS: Trauma clinic in one week, phone number [Telephone/Fax (1) 274], call to schedule the appointment. Neurosurgery: the patient is to continue the C-collar and follow up with her private neurosurgeon, Dr. [Last Name (STitle) ].

STUDIES: [2106-2-5] Abdominal aortogram with right lower extremity runoff. ANGIOGRAPHIC FINDINGS: The abdominal aorta is extremely angulated but smooth. There were patent bilateral common, internal and external iliac arteries. The renal arteries and single and patent bilaterally. The right lower extremity shows a patent common femoral artery, profunda femoral artery and superficial femoral artery, popliteal, anterior tibialis and peroneal arteries. The PT is occluded and both the AT and the peroneal arteries occlude at the ankle. There were vessels seen in the foot. SUMMARY: Either thrombosis or embolism of the right foot arteries. Nonviable foot. Will likely need a right below knee amputation. . [2-10] CT abd/pelvis: There is free fluid in the pelvis. There is dilatation of bowel loops with a maximum of 7 cm in diameter. . [2-13] CTA abd/pelvis: 1.A slight interval increase in size in the bilateral pleural effusions and adjacent consolidation/atelectasis. 2.The aorta is normal in caliber, all its main branches are widely patent. 3. Hypodense areas in both lobe of the thyroid gland. 4. Mild cardiomegaly. 5. Cholelithiasis. 6. Splenic and cortical renal infarcts. 7. Ascites. . Pathology: Ileocolectomy: Acute hemorrhagic infarction involving the mucosa of the cecum and colon. The infarction extends in the mucosa to the proximal ileal margin. . Brief Hospital Course: Ms [Known lastname 61764] was admitted to vascular surgery service with gangrene of the right foot that was likely secondary to thrombosis or embolism of the right foot arteries, as confirmed by angiography. As she was not a candidate for revascularization, she was prepped for right below knee amputation. She was started on broad spectrum antibiotics. Given the patient's poor nutritional status, MIS surgery was consulted regarding PEG placement at the time of amputation. The patient underwent above knee amputation of the right extremity by vascular surgery and PEG placement by MIS surgery on [2106-2-9]. Please see operative report for full details. . On post-operative day #1, the patient complained of abdominal pain. Initially, this was not associated with peritoneal signs and the patient underwent CT scan evaluation. This revealed some free air and ascites. Subsequent exam of the patient did reveal abdominal distention and peritoneal signs that were associated with elevation in WBC and decreased urine output. As a result, the patient was taken to the OR for exploratory laparotomy on [2106-2-10]. Please see operative report for full details. . In the OR, the patient was found to have ischemic colon without frank perforation extending from the cecum to the end of the descending colon. SHe underwent extended R colectomy and end ileostomy. She was transferred to the SICU for care. . In the SICU, the patient received IV antibiotics. In the week following admission, the patient remained intubated but appeared to be improving slowly. THe patient was extubated on [2106-2-14] with a functioning ostomy. The following day, however, the patient developed blood per rectum. This was associated with a fall in her hematocrit. On [2106-2-17], the patient was taken back to the OR for exploratory laparotomy. In the OR, 46 cm of necrotic and ischemic bowel was found. The patient underwent resection of small intesting as well as ileostomy. Please see operative report for full details. . Post-operatively, the patient underwent extensive hypercoagulable work-up and was found to be HIT positive. She was started on Agastroband. On [2106-2-21], a code was called on the patient for pulseless electrical activity secondary to respiratory distress. She was re-intubated and resuscitated successfully. A family meeting was held on [2106-2-23] at which time her code status was changed from full code to DNR/DNI (if successfully extubated). After several days, as the patient was not tolerating extubation, the patient's code status was discussed again with the family. On [2106-2-26], the patient was made comfort measures only and she expired at 13:47 on that same day. . Medications on Admission: Levothyroxine Calcium MVI Colace Senna Morphine Remeron Cipro (until [2106-2-11]) Vicodin Garamcyin (until [2106-2-15]) Discharge Disposition: Expired Discharge Diagnosis: Peripheral Vascular disease Ischemic colitis Respiratory Arrest Cardiac arrest Discharge Condition: expired Completed by:[2106-3-12]	[ "2762", "5070", "2851", "2760", "4019", "2449", "41401", "412" ]

He was in his usual state of health until 2 weeks ago, when he began having night sweats, which soaked through his sheets. He developed myalgias and fever to 103 over the weekend prior to admission ([6-13]), which resolved by [6-15], when he began having left knee pain and swelling; he went to orthopedic clinic [6-17] where his left knee was noted to have a large effusion thought to be related to worsening of his chronic knee osteoarthritis. Arthrocentesis was performed, which improved his pain; he also used vicodin and ibuprofen at home. . The lower back pain began on the day of the arthrocentesis ([6-17]) and progressively worsened in severity; he describes it as a sharp pain without any radiation and describes "spasms" of increasing pain. He distinguishes this pain from his past pain associated with degenerative lumbar disease/disc herniations, which produced sciatic symptoms. On the day of presentation, he notes severe back pain and bilateral leg weakness that made him unable to step into the shower. He had no fecal or urinary incontinence, no urinary retention symptoms beyond his baseline BPH symptoms, and no sensory loss of his lower extremities. He had no neurologic symptoms such as weakness or numbness of his upper extremities or trunk. . No recent travel, sick contacts, sexual contacts, risk factors for TB, procedures (other than arthrocentesis), no recent dental cleaning (does have chipped tooth, but does not involve gums). He denies any rashes but notes [5-28] "growths" on hand, scrotum; he was seen by a dermatologist, who diagnosed them as benign lesions associated with aging, and removed them with liquid nitrogen. No headache, neck stiffness, or visual changes. No cough, mild SOB, no chest pain. He notes mild worsening of his chronic right knee pain, but denies pain in other joints. He denies abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea and has a good appetite. +constipation, with no BM x1-2 days. . In the ER his initial VS were: T 97.0 HR 110 BP 155/77 RR 20 O2 sat: 100% on RA. His T max in the ER was 101.5. He was given 2mg IV morphine x 2, then 4mg IV x 2 for pain without much effect. 1mg IV dilaudid improved his pain somewhat. He was given 2L IVF. He was also given tylenol 650mg x 1 and vanc/ceftriaxone. In the ER an MRI (non contrast) was performed which revealed L2-L3 disc protrusion that causes severe canal stenosis with effacement of the thecal sac. In addition there was increased signal of L5-S1 suggesting possible early discitis but there was no contrast. There was no paraspinal soft tissue abnormality. Neuro was consulted and thought a repeat scan with IV contrast should be performed and that the patient had a lower extremity exam that was limited by severe pain but may have some objective weakness of his proximal lower extremities L > R. . Past Medical History: DMII (last A1C 7.7, recently started metformin) Mitral valve prolapse Hiatal Hernia Schatzki's ring (EGD [6-/2110]) Social History: Retired, used to work at [University/College ]as archivist.

CXR [6-29] A thick crescentic opacity in the left lower lobe is more likely atelectasis than pneumonia. The peripheral component has improved slightly since [6-26], but the central component has not. Lung volumes remain quite low, but there are no findings to suggest pneumonia elsewhere. There is no pleural effusion or evidence of central adenopathy. Heart size is normal. Ascending thoracic aorta is tortuous or mildly dilated. . ECHO [6-30] The left atrium is normal in size. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic root is moderately dilated at the sinus level. The ascending aorta is mildly dilated. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened. No masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. There is no aortic valve stenosis. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. The mitral valve leaflets are myxomatous. There is mild mitral valve prolapse. No masses or vegetations are seen on the mitral valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. An eccentric, anteriorly directed jet of mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. No masses or vegetations are seen on the tricuspid valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [2111-6-19], mild mitral valve prolapse of the posterior leaflet is now visible. The severity of mitral regurgitation is slightly increased (but still mild). The other findings are similar. . LENI [6-30] IMPRESSION: 1. Deep vein thrombosis seen in the right leg and the right superficial femoral vein extending to the right popliteal vein where it is nonocclusive. DVT in one of the two right posterior tibial veins. 2. DVT seen in the left calf in the two posterior tibial veins and in one of the two peroneal veins. Brief Hospital Course: 59 yo M with DMII and mitral valve prolapse presenting with back pain, left knee pain and effusion in the setting of recent fevers and nightsweats, found to have strep viridans bacteremia and septic left knee joint. . # Septic arthritis, left knee: Fluid from [6-17] revealed [Numeric Identifier 100009] WBCs with 86% PMNs and the culture grew GPC. He was treated with IV vancomycin. He was seen by orthopedic surgery and the infectious disease services. Received an I&D in the OR on [6-20]. POD [5-28], knee felt warm, swollen without erythema. Per ortho, received an arthroscopy and washout on [6-28]. Pt has continued to improve since this procedure. -Patient can be somewhat discouraged and resistant to pushing himself through PT, but is very cooperative with some encouragement . # Back pain, lower extremity weakness: The history of fever and nightsweats and possible septic joint was concerning for vertebral osteomyelitis via hematogenous seeding. A noncontrast lumbar CT and MRI (with and without contrast) were negative for osteomyelitis or epidural abscess but revealed progression of degenerative disease with nerve root compression at L2-L3, L5-S1. He was seen by neurology in the ED given lower extremity weakness. Once the patient's pain was better controlled (with muscle relaxants and opioids), there was no evidence of lower extremity weakness on exam, though exam continued to be limited by knee pain. The back pain is most likely due to degenerative disease, which may have been exacerbated by antalgic gait due to left knee pain. He had ongoing PT while inpatient and pain was well-managed. . # Bacteremia, ?endocarditis: [4-26] blood cultures drawn [6-19] were positive for strep viridans. Given his increased risk of endocarditis due to mitral valve prolapse, TTE was obtained and was negative for endocarditis and, notably, for mitral valve prolapse. We then proceeded with a TEE, but this was unsuccessful due to a known Schatzki's ring (dx by EGD in [11-28]) which prevented the probe from passing. Given his continued nighttime fevers, there was still concern for both bacteremia and endocarditis and so IV antibiotics continued. However, recent vancomycin troughs were sub-therapeutic(7.0) even with high dosing. IV ceftriaxone was considered, but patient has a ?history of a allergic rash with CTX over the weekend. By ID's recommendation, patient went to the unit overnight to receive a ceftriaxone desensitization. Ceftriaxone desensitization subsequently failed [2-24] development of hives. Patient was transferred back to medicine team and continued with IV vanco, again with subtherapeutic troughs and continued nightly fevers. White count trended slightly upward (from 8 to 10). Lung exam became suspicious for pna, see below. Due to low vanc troughs, patient was switched on [6-26] to daptomycin. ID weighed in and considering new HAP and suboptimally treated bacteremia, determined new abx regimen of linezolid, aztreonam, and cipro, which patient began on [6-27]. Pt was changed back over to daptomycin on [6-30]. It was not thought that pt had a HAP given no fever, WBC count or cough. CXR confirmed that LLL opacity was due to atelectasis. . #hypoxia-? Hospital acquired pneumonia: on [6-26] CXR showed LLL consolidation. With clinical picture of nightly fevers and trending WBC, patient began treatment of levofloxacin. Patient temporarily required 2L NC on the night of [6-26] but quickly weaned to RA. ID recommended abx regimen to cover bacteremia, endocarditis, and HAP: linezolid, aztreonam, and cipro.
