The patient is a 61-year-old man with a history of ischemic cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure, who was initially treated with afterload reduction, digoxin and Lasix. A PA line was placed with RA 8, RV 76/4, TA 80/36, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure 34, and cardiac index 1.49. He was then treated with dobutamine, intravenous TNG, and nitroprusside with symptomatic relief and hemodynamic stabilization with wedge pressure falling to 18. TNG and Nipride were successfully weaned, however, the patient remained dobutamine dependent. One week prior to transfer, the patient was admitted to Ment Hospital for management of his congestive heart failure and grew gram positive cocci from two blood cultures. He was then started on vancomycin and defervesced, and subsequently grew gram negative rods in one out of four blood culture specimens. These were gram negative enteric rods, pan-sensitive, for which the patient was started on ampicillin 2 gm IV q. 6. At the time of discharge, the patient was stable, dobutamine dependent, without chest pain, able to ambulate from chair to commode without shortness of breath, palpitations, or light-headedness. His medications at time of discharge included dobutamine at 15 mcg per kilogram per minute; captopril 25 mg p.o. t.i.d.; digoxin 0.125 mg p.o. q.d.; Lasix 160 mg p.o. b.i.d.; potassium chloride 20 mEq p.o. b.i.d.; Coumadin 1 mg p.o. q.d.; Atrovent, two puffs q.i.d.; Azmacort, eight puffs b.i.d.; Pepcid 20 mg p.o. b.i.d.; Colace 100 mg p.o. t.i.d.; vancomycin 1 gm q. 12, discontinued 9-23 a.m. after 14 days; ampicillin 2 gm IV q. 6 (24 of June equals day number five); Halcion 0.125 p.o. q.h.s. prn; Serax 15 mg p.o. q. 6 hours prn. The patient's condition at time of discharge is fair and will be continuing care in the coronary care unit of the hospital inpatient near patient's home under the care of Doctor Daren Swasey.

The patient, TABIOS, MARLIN, was admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of congestive heart failure. Upon discharge, the patient was prescribed Atenolol 100 MG PO QD, Lasix (Furosemide) 40 MG PO QD, Reglan (Metoclopramide HCl) 10 MG PO TID, Coumadin (Warfarin Sodium) 3.75 MG PO QPM, Simvastatin 20 MG PO QHS, Insulin 70/30 (Human) 10 UNITS QAM; 0 UNITS QPM SC, Cozaar (Losartan) 100 MG PO QD, and Protonex (Pantoprazole) 40 MG PO QD, with a potentially serious interaction of Simvastatin and Warfarin. The patient was also instructed to follow a fluid restriction of two liters, a diet low in cholesterol and saturated fat, and a two gram Sodium diet. In addition, the patient was informed to take the Reglan with warm water, separately from other pills before meals and to avoid grapefruit unless instructed otherwise. The patient's insulin regiment was modified and the Beta Blocker was changed to once a day Atenolol, and she was instructed to switch to 10 units of 70/30 insulin the morning. The patient was put on a Full Code status and was discharged with instructions to walk as tolerated and to follow up with Asselmeier in 1-2 weeks and to arrange for INR to be drawn on 8/16/04 with follow up INR's to be drawn every 7 days. The patient was also advised to be aware of the potentially serious interaction between Simvastatin and Warfarin, discontinue Metoprolol and Lisinopril, start Cozaar and Atenolol, increase Reglan dose, and VNA for diabetes management, CHF management, and medical compliance.

The patient is an elderly woman with known coronary artery disease status post coronary artery bypass graft who had her Beta blocker, Pendalol decreased from 5 mg to 2.5 mg prior to this trip to Glension Street. On return to the hospital she developed substernal chest pain that radiated down both arms, which was treated with Amoxicillin given to her by her son who is a physician. At this visit, he did start her on Prinivil and she took a sublingual nitroglycerin that completely relieved her symptoms. Laboratory studies were significant for a white blood cell count of 5.46, hematocrit 40.1, platelets 190, Cardiac Troponin I was 0.0, CK was 102, and Urinalysis was negative. Chest x-ray was clear with no infiltrates, and EKG was normal sinus rhythm with normal intervals and normal axis with a left bundle branch block pattern and first degree atrioventricular block with no change compared to an EKG done on January, 1997. MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION: 1) Zocor 5 mg p.o. q.h.s., 2) Prinivil 5 mg p.o. q. day., 3) Pendalol 2.5 mg p.o. q. day., 4) Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q. day., 5) Synthroid 0.100 mg p.o. q. Monday, Wednesday and Friday and 0.12 mg p.o. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday., 6) Pepcid p.r.n. From here, she was managed medically with increases in her ACE inhibitor, Statin and the addition of nitrates. After the cardiac catheterization, she developed a large right groin hematoma at the puncture site and a bruit was noted. An ultrasound was done that revealed a pseudoaneurysm of the common femoral artery, which was later surgically repaired. MEDICATIONS ON DISCHARGE: 1) Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q. day., 2) Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., 3) Synthroid 100 mcg p.o. q. Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 112 mcg p.o. q. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday., 4) Lisinopril 10 mg p.o. q. day., 5) Beclomethasone diproprionate double strength spray to each nostril b.i.d., 6) Zocor 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., 7) Toprol XL 75 mg p.o. q. day., 8) Imdur 30 mg p.o. q. day., 9) Augmentin one tablet p.o. q. day for seven additional days. The patient had been having low grade fevers and a cough productive of a green sputum, and experienced diaphoretic episodes, both at rest and exertion, which was relieved by a sublingual nitroglycerin. The latest echocardiogram in May of 1997 showed an ejection fraction of 35% with mid to distal septal and apical akinesis and inferior akinesis with mild mitral regurgitation, and she went 4 minutes and 18 seconds on an exercise tolerance test with Thallium which showed only fixed defects, no reversible defects.

Has this patient ever been treated with toprol xl

This 54 year old gentleman presented to the Wickpro Conch Medical Center with an infected left lower leg pressure ulcer with open and gangrenous muscle exposed through the posterior wound. His past medical history is significant for insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, peripheral vascular disease, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, history of atrial fibrillation/flutter, and right sacroiliac joint decubitus ulcer. His physical examination revealed mottled distal extremities, bilateral inspiratory wheezes, and a positive bowel sound. The patient underwent a four vessel coronary artery bypass graft on 6/17/95 and left lower extremity fasciotomy on 11/27/95 and was taken to the Operating Room on 7/25/95 for a preoperative diagnosis of a left lower extremity infected pressure sore. Intraoperatively, the patient was noted to have necrosis of both heads of the gastrocnemius muscle and copious amounts of antibiotic-containing solution was used to irrigate the wound, for which he was started on Ampicillin, Gentamicin, and Flagyl empirically until culture results returned and was taken back on 2/29/95 for a second irrigation and debridement procedure.

What is her current dose of heparin

A 66-year-old gentleman with a medical history significant for coronary artery disease and two prior MIs presented with substernal chest pain while walking that lasted 2-3 hours and was relieved by rest and sublingual nitroglycerin. He was admitted and cardiac catheterization revealed 90% proximal LAD stenosis, 90% mid LAD and 100% distal LAD stenosis, 100% mid LVB1, 80% mid circumflex, 70% proximal D1, 70% proximal PDA, and a right dominant circulation, with diffuse coronary calcification and extensive diffuse disease with small distal vessels. LAD in stent restenosis and collateral flow diffusely small left main. On 4/15/05, the patient underwent CABG x4 with SVG1 to RCA, and sequential graft of SVG2 to D1 and then OM1, with LIMA to LAD and an LAD endarterectomy. On arrival to the hospital, he was given 150 mg of Plavix, heparin 500 units for 48 hours, and aspirin that same night. He was also started on Enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. daily, atenolol 75 mg p.o. daily, Colace 100 mg p.o. t.i.d., oxycodone 5 mg to 10 mg p.o. q.6h. p.r.n. pain, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Lantus 38 units subcutaneously at bedtime, NovoLog 18 units subcutaneous q.a.m., and Lasix with good effect. He required the transfusion of a unit of packed red blood cells and neosynephrine transiently, which was weaned off on postoperative day #2. He was also noted to have a preoperative urinary tract infection of E. coli for which he was started on levofloxacin on 0/5/05 and treated for five days. The patient was followed by the Diabetes Management Service for blood sugar control and was transitioned from IV insulin to subcutaneous insulin postoperatively. He was discharged to home in good condition on postoperative day #7 on the following medications and is to have a follow-up appointment with his cardiologist, Dr. Abusufait, in one to two weeks, and with his cardiac surgeon, Dr. Cederberg, in four to six weeks.

Why was insulin prescribed

An 81-year-old woman with Atrial Fibrillation (AF) on Fondaparinux, no Coumadin secondary to prior epistaxis, Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSC Lung Ca), and Pernicious Anemia (Pernicious Anemia) presents with three days of constant chest pain, pleuritic, not exertional, and mostly related to arm movement.

CT-PE showed no evidence of PE or Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) and post Right Lower Lobe Resection changes, with interval resolution of Left Upper Lobe Nodule without new nodules, and possible chronic subsegmental PE. CXR showed no acute process. Factor Xa level was checked to insure Lovenox dosing was therapeutic. Discharge plan included mammogram next week for evaluation, continue pain control with Lidoderm patch, Ultram and low dose Dilaudid as needed for severe pain, continue Tarceva as per outpatient oncologist, continue Lovenox as outpt, continue Lasix at 40mg daily, complete course of Cipro 250mg BID x 3 days, follow up with cardiologist for continued management of heart conditions, and follow up with rehabilitation specialists to try to regain strength and function. Discharge condition was stable.

Has a patient had vitamin b6 ( pyridoxine hcl )

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

has the patient used flagyl in the past

Jonas G Fosselman was admitted from office on 4/1/01 for infected L THR. Aspiration demonstrated purulent material, and he was started on Ceftriaxone per ID consult recs. with MIC to both PCN and Ceftriaxone pending. MRI of pelvis completed 10/10/01 as pre-op eval. TU Cardiology was consulted for pre-op clearance given extensive H/O cardiomyopathy and unstentable CAD per last cardiac cath 8/7. On further d/w PT, he was adament about being allowed to be D/C home on Abx for August holiday. Given that his clinical picture was much improved on antibiotics, both Dr Salkeld and ID MD agreed to this on provision that he return immediately for any evidence of progressing infection. His R hip pain and exam were much improved by time of discharge. Will plan for IV lon line to be placed prior to D/C for home dosing of QD Ceftriaxone.

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

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

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

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

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

How much pravachol ( pravastatin ) does the patient take per day

Ms. Elter is an 83-year-old Spanish-speaking female with history of CAD, distant three-vessel CABG, CRI, NSTEMI in 4/20 and type II diabetes who presented to the ED with PND, dyspnea on exertion, and chest heaviness with no fevers or chills and no sick contacts, and EMS had given her Lasix and Nitrospray. She was briefly on a nonrebreather mask and responded to 80 mg of IV Lasix, with her potassium level reaching 5.8 and Kayexalate administered. Her medications included aspirin, metoprolol, allopurinol, valsartan, glipizide, Lipitor, and nifedipine, with her oxygen saturation eventually reaching the high 90s on a couple of liters of oxygen and her chest x-ray full set negative. She was treated with aspirin, beta-blockers, and statin for coronary artery disease, experienced a CHF flare with an elevated BNP which was managed with Lasix and Diuril, and her after load was reduced with ARB and her previous home calcium channel blocker was weaned off. She had a transient new atrial fibrillation and ventricular ectopy which resolved spontaneously, and was placed on humidified room air with nasal saline sprays and Afrin due to her coronary artery disease. She was transfused a total of 3 units to keep her hematocrit greater than 30 and Coumadin was initially started given her new onset of atrial fibrillation, but ultimately only aspirin was given after consideration of risks versus benefits. She had some constipation which was relieved with stool softeners and the patient received a PPI. Her DM-2 was managed with regular sliding scale insulin with good blood sugar control and her glipizide was held given her worsening creatinine clearance, and her allopurinol was changed to q.72h. from q.o.d. due to the creatinine clearance and she had some left heel and foot pain thought to be secondary to gout, which improved at the time of discharge. Her hematocrit dropped from 29 to 25, her guaiac was negative on the 3/20/04, and she was sent home with VNA support to follow up on her weights and fluid status and with home physical therapy. Her medications at the time of discharge included Lasix 20 mg p.o. q.d., Lipitor 80 mg p.o. q.d., Metoprolol sustained release 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d. p.r.n. for constipation, Allopurinol 100 mg p.o. q.72h., Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., and Valsartan 160 mg p.o. q.d.

Has the patient had metoprolol sustained release in the past

The patient is a 76-year-old male with a history of diabetes, hypertension, and CAD status post MI in 2000 who presented to the Emergency Room on 0/0/06 with an ST elevation MI. In the Cath Lab, he was given bicarb, placed on the epi drip, given Lasix and intubated. He was thought to aspirate at the time of intubation secondary to vomiting. A bedside echo revealed global hypokinesis with an EF of 35% and he was placed on a balloon pump, dopamine 16, amio 1, propofol 1, and Integrilin and brought to the floor. On the floor, his blood pressures were difficult to control and his wedge pressure readings indicated a wedge pressure of 47. His MAPs to keep them over 60 required max dopamine, max Levophed, epinephrine and dobutamine. He was arrested multiple times in V-Tach requiring CPR and cardioversion and was found to have in-stent thrombosis in his LAD which was aspirated and bare-metal stent was placed in his LAD and another stent was placed in his diag-2. His family was aware of his prognosis and was there at the time of his arrest at 3:30 in the morning. CPR was initiated and ACLS was done until the family decided to terminate the ACLS and the time of death was 3:47 a.m. on 0/0/06. The cause of death was thought to be cardiogenic shock secondary to ST elevation MI.

Has the patient had multiple lasix prescriptions

The patient is a 58-year-old female with chronic renal insufficiency, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and anemia who presented with two weeks of diffuse abdominal pain that acutely worsened one day prior to admission with associated nausea, nonbloody emesis, and chills. She was initially given a seven-day course of ciprofloxacin and oxycodone for pain, but stopped taking them after developing constipation. She currently presents with complaints of diarrhea and was given ampicillin 2 g IV, gentamicin 80 mg IV, Flagyl 500 mg IV and 8 units of insulin. She was put on levofloxacin, vancomycin, and Flagyl as her left foot had been encasted with evidence of underlying infection, and her blood cultures grew MRSA, which is presumed to need eight weeks of vancomycin. She was put on erythromycin with a change to Reglan on 8/6/06 per renal or liver disease and kept on Compazine for nausea. Later, it was determined that the patient was iron deficient and she was put on iron supplementation and darbepoetin initially and changed to erythropoietin later during dialysis. She was maintained on aspirin, a statin, and calcium channel blocker, and started on prophylactic beta-blocker during her hospital course. Her insulin regimen was titrated to good glycemic response, and she was kept on heparin and Nexium.

The patient underwent catheterization on 2/13/92 and athrectomy of her proximal LAD lesion which was complicated by the onset of severe chest discomfort and 100% occlusion of the LAD. The patient was subsequently brought to the cath lab on 10/9/92 and dilated to a 30% residual with balloon PTCA. The patient's post PTCA course was complicated by several episodes of transient chest discomfort which was relieved both by Mylanta and sublingual TNG. Glucotrol 7.5 mg p.o. q-day, Mevacor 10 mg p.o. q.d., Isoril 10 mg p.o. t.i.d., Propranolol 20 mg p.o. t.i.d., Nitroglycerin sublingual p.r.n., and Glucotrol with NPH subcu q.a.m. were administered, and the patient was treated with Mevacor for hypercholesterolemia. The patient was discharged with medications including Mevacor 10 mg p.o. q-day, Aspirin one p.o. q-day, Glucotrol 20 mg p.o. b.i.d., Isordil 40 mg p.o. t.i.d., Lopressor 200 mg p.o. b.i.d., and NPH 26 units subcutaneously each morning.

Has the patient ever been on isoril

The patient is a 61-year-old man with a history of ischemic cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure, who was initially treated with afterload reduction, digoxin and Lasix. A PA line was placed with RA 8, RV 76/4, TA 80/36, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure 34, and cardiac index 1.49. He was then treated with dobutamine, intravenous TNG, and nitroprusside with symptomatic relief and hemodynamic stabilization with wedge pressure falling to 18. TNG and Nipride were successfully weaned, however, the patient remained dobutamine dependent. One week prior to transfer, the patient was admitted to Ment Hospital for management of his congestive heart failure and grew gram positive cocci from two blood cultures. He was then started on vancomycin and defervesced, and subsequently grew gram negative rods in one out of four blood culture specimens. These were gram negative enteric rods, pan-sensitive, for which the patient was started on ampicillin 2 gm IV q. 6. At the time of discharge, the patient was stable, dobutamine dependent, without chest pain, able to ambulate from chair to commode without shortness of breath, palpitations, or light-headedness. His medications at time of discharge included dobutamine at 15 mcg per kilogram per minute; captopril 25 mg p.o. t.i.d.; digoxin 0.125 mg p.o. q.d.; Lasix 160 mg p.o. b.i.d.; potassium chloride 20 mEq p.o. b.i.d.; Coumadin 1 mg p.o. q.d.; Atrovent, two puffs q.i.d.; Azmacort, eight puffs b.i.d.; Pepcid 20 mg p.o. b.i.d.; Colace 100 mg p.o. t.i.d.; vancomycin 1 gm q. 12, discontinued 9-23 a.m. after 14 days; ampicillin 2 gm IV q. 6 (24 of June equals day number five); Halcion 0.125 p.o. q.h.s. prn; Serax 15 mg p.o. q. 6 hours prn. The patient's condition at time of discharge is fair and will be continuing care in the coronary care unit of the hospital inpatient near patient's home under the care of Doctor Daren Swasey.

What medications has the patient ever tried for gram positive cocci prevention

This 81-year-old Italian-speaking gentleman was admitted to M Valley Medical Center with rising chest pain. Upon admission, his vital signs were normal and his physical examination was unremarkable. Cardiac catheterization revealed 30% mid RCA occlusion, 40% distal RCA, 90% ostial OM1, 90% mid CX, 80% proximal LAD, 99% mid LAD and 60% mid LM. EKG showed normal sinus rhythm and an incomplete right bundle-branch block. During his hospital stay, he was started on beta-blockers, statins, fluid resuscitation and vasopressor administration, subcu insulin, prednisone, Plavix, and antibiotics. He experienced agitation and delirium, for which he was on alcohol drip due to preop history of alcohol use and Haldol was used p.r.n. Later during the hospital stay, he became hypotensive, requiring Tylenol suppository 650 mg every 6 hours, Toradol orally 10 mg every 4 hours as needed for pain, Haldol liquid 1 to 3 mg orally every 4 hours as needed for agitation, and Morphine liquid 5 to 20 mg orally every 2 hours as needed for pain and for shortness of breath. He was also on Lopressor 25 orally every 6 hours, Diltiazem 125 mg orally daily, Furosemide 20 mg orally daily, Methylprednisolone 30 mg IV every 8 hours, Atorvastatin 80 mg orally daily, Allopurinol 100 mg orally daily, Ativan 0.5 mg orally at bedtime, Nexium 20 mg orally daily, and Proscar 5 mg orally every night. Tight glycemic control was maintained with Portland protocol in the immediate postop period and subsequently with subcu insulin. Incidental radiologic finding of a renal mass consistent with renal cell carcinoma was also found. Support for the patient's family was provided throughout the hospital course, and the patient was discharged with Tylenol suppository 650 mg every 6 hours, Toradol orally 10 mg every 4 hours as needed for pain, Haldol liquid 1 to 3 mg orally every 4 hours as needed for agitation, Nexium 20 mg everyday, and Morphine liquid 5 to 20 mg orally every 2 hours as needed for pain and for shortness of breath.

X-rays of his left pelvis and femur revealed fracture of the left intertrochanter and subtrochanteric fracture with lesser trochanteric fracture intact by 3 cm, less than five degrees angulation. His femoral head was reduced. During his hospital course, the patient was started on a beta blocker, Ace inhibitor, and continued on an aspirin. He was aggressively diuresed with Lasix for diuresis and was treated with vancomycin, Flagyl, and levofloxacin for presumed aspiration pneumonia. He was continued on Lovenox 60 mg subcu. b.i.d. for prophylaxis against DVT post-hip surgery to continue for six months minimal followed by orthopedic surgery, and restarted on oral hypoglycemics prior to discharge in addition to sliding scale insulin. He was discharged on standing 20 mEq of K-Dur q.d., lisinopril 5 mg PO q.d., hold for systolic blood pressure less than 100, Lasix 100 mg PO q.d., Lovenox 60 mg subcu. b.i.d. x6 months, glipizide 2.5 mg PO q.d., sliding scale insulin, Nexium 20 mg PO q.d., Silvadene wet-to-dry dressing, DuoDerm to left lower leg wound and change q.3 days, and Lopressor 12.5 mg PO t.i.d., hold for systolic blood pressure less than 100. He was maintained on Nexium prophylaxis in the setting of his anticoagulation and on two liters of nasal cannula oxygen at the time of transfer to rehab. Upon discharge, he was instructed to follow up with his primary care physician, orthopedic surgery, cardiology, and pulmonary medicine within two weeks, with labs for a metabolic panel, magnesium, and calcium q.o.d. and physical therapy as needed, with a weightbearing status of non-weightbearing on the left lower extremity and weightbearing as tolerated on the right lower extremity.

Has the patient taken any medications for prophylaxis...anticoagulation management

A 79-year-old female with a history of diabetes mellitus, congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, chronic renal insufficiency, and anemia, status post five years of TAMOXIFEN TREATMENT, was admitted to Darnbo Hospital on 7/29/97 after sudden onset of shortness of breath unrelieved by one sublingual nitroglycerin. This shortness of breath was managed with IV Lasix and IV nitroglycerin, saturating at 99% on 100% oxygen, and IV heparin at 1,300 units per hour. Her blood pressure was stabilized on IV nitroglycerin with TRANSFER MEDICATIONS: Lopressor 25 mg PO BID started three weeks ago, Axid 150 mg PO BID, enteric coated aspirin 325 mg PO QD, Isordil 30 mg PO QID, hydralazine 50 mg PO QID, Lasix 40 mg PO QD, Timoptic 0.25% one GTT OU BID, Serax 30 mg PO QHS PRN insomnia, and nitroglycerin 1/150 one tablet sublingual Q 5 minutes times three PRN chest pain.

The 54-year-old black woman presented for reop coronary artery bypass grafting due to recurrent substernal chest pain approximately four months after her bypass surgery. Under general endotracheal anesthesia coronary artery bypass grafting times three was performed. The right internal mammary artery was grafted to the first diagonal as well as saphenous vein graft to the left anterior descending, the old obtuse marginal graft, and the second diagonal. The patient was found to have dense cardiac adhesions. Postoperatively the patient's course was unremarkable and she required sodium Nitroprusside in the immediate postoperative period. At the time of dictation, one day prior to proposed discharge, the patient's chest x-ray showed some improved aeration of that lower lobe. The patient will be discharged to home with medications of Atenolol 50 mg po q d, baby aspirin one po q d, Diabinese 500 mg po q d, iron sulfate 325 mg po tid, Colace, and Percocet.

This 75-year-old female vasculopath was admitted for further evaluation of her peripheral vascular disease which was suspected to be contributing to her new ulcerations and progressively worsening bilateral foot pain, foot mottling and wrist pain as an exacerbating factor to likely atheroembolic phenomenon, status post coronary catheterizations earlier in the year. She was placed on broad-spectrum antibiotics and plan was made for an MRA to evaluate her anatomy, unfortunately, the patient was unable to tolerate the MR and did experience some mental status changes that prevented further noninvasive imaging when she received some narcotic following her hemodialysis round. Over the ensuing days she required rather significant doses of Zyprexa and Haldol to contain agitation and delirium, as the patient would also get physical and violent. This appeared to sedate her sufficiently and over the following days, she did manage to calm significantly and returned to her baseline mental status. Cardiology was consulted during this time to optimize her prior to the OR and her primary cardiologist, Dr. Fugle, did make some recommendations including an echocardiogram that showed preserved ejection fraction and no wall motion abnormalities. Her beta blockade was titrated up and she was instructed to follow up with cardiology. She did tolerate hemodialysis throughout this time without undue difficulty and they offered an angiogram to delineate aortic and bilateral lower extremity runoff anatomy. After extensive discussions with the patient and the patient's family, the patient did agree to a left femoral to dorsalis pedis bypass graft which was performed on 0/25/2006 without complication. By time of discharge, she was tolerating a regular diet and ambulating at baseline with her rolling walker. The pain was well controlled with minimal analgesics that were not narcotic based. Medications on admission included Aspirin 325 mg p.o. daily, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Cardizem 60 mg p.o. t.i.d., Lipitor 80 mg daily, Atrovent 2 puffs four times a day, Albuterol 2 puffs b.i.d., Renagel 806 mg p.o. every meal, Allopurinol 100 mg p.o. daily, Zaroxylyn 2.5 mg p.o. daily p.r.n. overload, Lantus 10 units subcutaneous nightly, Regular insulin sliding scale, Valium 5 mg p.o. b.i.d. p.r.n., Isordil 40 mg p.o. t.i.d., Hydralazine 20 mg p.o. t.i.d., Lopressor 75 mg p.o. t.i.d., Zantac 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Aciphex 20 mg p.o. daily, Neurontin 300 mg p.o. post-dialysis, Metamucil, Nitroglycerine p.r.n., Procrit 40,000 units subcutaneously every week, Lilly insulin pen, unknown dosage 20 units every morning and 10 units every evening, Loperamide 2 tabs p.o. four times a day, Ambien 10 mg p.o. nightly p.r.n., Tylenol 325 mg p.o. every four hours p.r.n. pain, Albuterol inhaler 2 puffs b.i.d., Calcitriol 1.5 mcg p.o. every Monday and every Friday, Darbepoetin alfa 100 mcg subcutaneous every week, Ferrous sulfate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., Prozac 40 mg p.o. daily, Motrin 400 mg p.o. every eight hours p.r.n. pain, Insulin regular sliding scale, and Sevelamer 800 mg p.o. t.i.d. Discharge instructions included touchdown weightbearing on the left heel, legs are to be elevated as much as possible while sitting or lying down, all home medications were to be resumed except for Lopressor, VNA was ordered to assist with wound care including Betadine paint to incisions daily, showering only, no bathing or immersion in water for prolonged periods of time, and follow-up visits with Dr. Amorose in one to two weeks and Dr. Morici primary care physician in one week.

Has this patient ever been on zaroxylyn

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

Was the patient ever given valium for low back pain.

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

Has the patient had acetylsalicylic acid in the past

Ms. Wentz, a 51-year-old female, was found to have an adenomatous polyp at the ileocecal valve, which was not amenable to colonoscopy resection. She has a past history of pulmonary embolism, diabetes mellitus type 2, obesity, hypercholesterolemia, probable COPD, hypertension, and moderate obstructive sleep apnea. The patient also has a long history of smoking, but quit five months before her admission. The patient is allergic to IV erythromycin, which causes rash. She was taking Lipitor 10 mg once a day, Metformin 500 mg in the morning, 100 mg in the afternoon, Coumadin 11 mg, and Tylenol p.r.n. for joint pain. The patient's Coumadin was withheld a week before operation and was placed on heparin. Her Coumadin was restarted on 7/3/05 and on her home dose of 11 mg. Her INR steadily increased over the course of her hospital stay up to 1.7 at her discharge. The patient was on metformin for her diabetes mellitus, which was withheld on the day of her surgery, and was placed on Regular Insulin sliding scale. She also complained of white creamy discharge from her vagina on 9/29/05 and miconazole suppository was prescribed for five days. At the time of discharge, her discharge from her vagina had resolved. The patient was discharged with DuoNeb 3/0.5 mg q.6h, Coumadin 12 mg p.o. nightly, Lipitor 10 mg p.o. once a day, Metformin p.o. 500 mg in the morning, 1000 mg in the afternoon, Colace 100 mg twice a day p.o., and Dilaudid 2-4 mg q.3h. p.o. The patient will arrange to have her INR draw on 1/1/05 with follow-up INRs to be drained every two days and INR will be followed by her primary care physician, Dr. Afonso. The patient is full code.

Is there a mention of of metformin usage/prescription in the record

A 66-year-old gentleman with a medical history significant for coronary artery disease and two prior MIs presented with substernal chest pain while walking that lasted 2-3 hours and was relieved by rest and sublingual nitroglycerin. He was admitted and cardiac catheterization revealed 90% proximal LAD stenosis, 90% mid LAD and 100% distal LAD stenosis, 100% mid LVB1, 80% mid circumflex, 70% proximal D1, 70% proximal PDA, and a right dominant circulation, with diffuse coronary calcification and extensive diffuse disease with small distal vessels. LAD in stent restenosis and collateral flow diffusely small left main. On 4/15/05, the patient underwent CABG x4 with SVG1 to RCA, and sequential graft of SVG2 to D1 and then OM1, with LIMA to LAD and an LAD endarterectomy. On arrival to the hospital, he was given 150 mg of Plavix, heparin 500 units for 48 hours, and aspirin that same night. He was also started on Enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. daily, atenolol 75 mg p.o. daily, Colace 100 mg p.o. t.i.d., oxycodone 5 mg to 10 mg p.o. q.6h. p.r.n. pain, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Lantus 38 units subcutaneously at bedtime, NovoLog 18 units subcutaneous q.a.m., and Lasix with good effect. He required the transfusion of a unit of packed red blood cells and neosynephrine transiently, which was weaned off on postoperative day #2. He was also noted to have a preoperative urinary tract infection of E. coli for which he was started on levofloxacin on 0/5/05 and treated for five days. The patient was followed by the Diabetes Management Service for blood sugar control and was transitioned from IV insulin to subcutaneous insulin postoperatively. He was discharged to home in good condition on postoperative day #7 on the following medications and is to have a follow-up appointment with his cardiologist, Dr. Abusufait, in one to two weeks, and with his cardiac surgeon, Dr. Cederberg, in four to six weeks.

Has patient ever been prescribed enteric-coated aspirin

This 90+-year-old male with a complex past medical history including CAD, CHF, AF and diabetes mellitus presented to the SICU for removal of chronically MRSA-infected mesh from prior abdominal surgery. He was intubated with etomidate, succinylcholine and kept sedated with Versed and fentanyl. He received intraoperative vancomycin and levofloxacin as well as 2200 mL of lactated Ringer's. In an attempt to reverse anticoagulation, one unit of FFP was begun but then aborted due to hypotension, which resolved with epinephrine injection, likely due to transfusion reaction. Another unit of FFP was administered, with platelets also given at the request of the Plastic Surgery Team in light of aspirin and Plavix, which were continued due to the patient's cardiac stents. Despite bolus Lasix, the patient did develop CHF with symptomatic pulmonary edema and increased oxygen requirement, concomitantly becoming delirious. He developed hypertension refractory to beta-blockade, calcium channel blockers and IV ACE inhibitors, and was thus placed on a nitroglycerin drip, a furosemide drip with ginger blood product resuscitation to address bleeding and an elevated INR, responding well to this regimen and aggressive pulmonary toilet. The patient was advanced to clear liquids, on medications including Amiodarone 200 mg p.o. daily, Calcium, Colace 100 mg by mouth t.i.d., Coumadin alternating doses of 4 mg and 3 mg, Diltiazem CD 360 mg p.o. daily, Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily, Folate 1 mg p.o. daily, Lisinopril 10 mg p.o. daily, Metamucil p.r.n., Clopidogrel 75 mg p.o. daily, Potassium, Protonix 40 mg p.o. daily, Simvastatin 80 mg p.o. daily, Synthroid 25 mcg p.o. daily, Thiamine 100 mg p.o. daily, Metoprolol SR 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Zyprexa 2.5 mg at bedtime p.r.n., and Vancomycin for MRSA-infected mesh. He does experience more significant delirium with morphine and less so with sparing Dilaudid p.r.n., and Haldol is written p.r.n. as needed. Weaning off nitroglycerin drip, nitro paste added, hematocrit 25%, one unit of packed red blood cells with Lasix and potassium to be given, RISS, and PICC line consult ordered for anticipated long-term vancomycin. Services following the patient include Medicine, Dr. Harcar, patient's PCP, Cardiology, Dr. Pagliari, and Plastic Surgery, Dr. Dunshie. Patient anticipated to be transferred to the floor on 9/28/06.

As she initially continued to be febrile and continued to have positive blood cultures, one dose of gentamycin was given for synergy, and she was eventually transitioned to p.o. levofloxacin and will take 7 days of p.o. levofloxacin to complete a total 14-day course of antibiotics for urosepsis. She was initially placed on aspirin, heparin, and a beta blocker, and once her creatinine normalized, an ACE inhibitor was also added. Heparin was discontinued once the concern for PE was alleviated, and her beta blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated up for a goal systolic blood pressure of <140 and a pulse of <70. On admission, the patient was on several pain medicines, including amitriptyline, Flexeril, and Valium for reported history of sciatica and low back pain, which were discontinued and she was placed on Neurontin for likely diabetic neuropathy. She was also placed on GI prophylaxis with Carafate and treated symptomatically with Imodium p.r.n. diarrhea.

The patient was evaluated by the physical therapist, who noted her to walk around the hospital without significant difficulty.

What types of medications have been tried for elevated blood sugars management

This is a 70-year-old female with a history of coronary artery disease, hypertension, type II diabetes mellitus, and peripheral vascular disease who presented with increasing chest pain over the past month progressing to pain at rest. On admission, the patient had a blood pressure of 230/90 and was treated with IV Lopressor and Diltiazem drip at 10 mg/hr. The patient underwent cardiac catheterization on 2/25/99, revealing stent restenosis of left circumflex artery, a 60 percent left anterior descending artery stenosis, a 70 percent diagonal ostial stenosis, a 40 percent ostial right coronary artery stenosis, and 95 percent ostial posterior descending artery stenosis. The patient was admitted for rule out myocardial infarction and subsequently underwent a coronary artery bypass graft times three with a left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending artery and saphenous vein graft to obtuse marginal and saphenous vein graft to posterior descending artery. Postoperatively, the patient was treated with IV Lopressor and Diltiazem drip at 10 mg/hr. for a period of atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response and rates in the 150s. The patient was started on MEDICATIONS including Aspirin 325 mg q.d., Atenolol 125 mg p.o. b.i.d., Captopril 100 mg p.o. t.i.d., Colace, Axid 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Amlodipine 10 mg p.o. q.d., Imdur 120 mg p.o. b.i.d., and insulin NPH 22 units q.a.m. and regular 10 units q.a.m., and anticoagulation with Coumadin. The patient subsequently converted spontaneously to normal sinus rhythm and was started back on Amlodipine for further blood pressure control and was started on Lopressor and Captopril and gradually increased to preoperative doses. The patient continued to experience brief episodes of atrial fibrillation with spontaneous conversion to normal sinus rhythm. At the time of discharge, the patient was advised to follow-up in six weeks with cardiac surgeon, Dr. Standrew, with primary care physician, Dr. Birdsong, in one to two weeks, and with cardiologist, Dr. Shelko, in one to two weeks, with Discharge Medications: Atenolol 125 mg p.o. b.i.d., Captopril 100 mg p.o. t.i.d., Colace 100 mg p.o. t.i.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q.d., insulin 22 units NPH subcu q.a.m. and 10 units regular subcu q.a.m., CZI regular insulin sliding scale, Percocet 1 to 2 tablets p.o. q3 - 4h p.r.n. pain, Zantac 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Coumadin dosed to INR of 2 to 2.5, and Amlodipine 5 mg p.o. q.d.

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

Why was the patient on medicines

A 69-year-old female with a history of coronary disease status post prior myocardial infarction and surgery in 2002 presented to R.healt Medical Center Emergency Department on 10/9/05 with three days of chest pain and shortness of breath. Of note, she had been noncompliant with prior regimens and treatments and despite diuretics started three days by her primary care physician she reported new shortness of breath and chest pain at rest. An EKG in the emergency department revealed widespread ST depressions, prompting treatment for pulmonary edema with IV nitroglycerin, Lasix, aspirin, heparin, beta-blockers, and urgent transfer to the cath lab where coronary angiography revealed a left main coronary artery thrombosis with proximal and distal stenoses of about 70%, 50% of her LAD, and 60% of her first diagonal. After placement of an intraaortic balloon pump for further management and evaluation, the patient was transferred to the coronary care unit and her home medications included Aspirin, hydralazine, nitroglycerin, quinine, Norvasc, Lasix, Toprol, lisinopril, albuterol, and famotidine. Despite treatment, her condition continued to deteriorate, necessitating an exploratory laparotomy and emergent intubation, and ultimately, the family decided to withdraw care on 11/12/05 at 2:20 a.m., leading to her death at 2:24 a.m. the same day.

has there been a prior lasix

The patient is a 68 year old female with a history of long standing hypertension and diabetes who experienced an increase in shortness of breath, dyspnea on exertion and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea while in Tempefayscot, Michigan 76498. She was admitted to the Short Stay Unit for evaluation with a systolic blood pressure greater than 200, and was administered Procardia XL 20 mg p.o. x 1, Aspirin, Nitropaste, and IV Lasix, to which she had a significant response. Her past medical history includes a stress echocardiogram which showed mitral regurgitation, hypokinesis of the septum and AV block on exertion with an ejection fraction of about 40%. On admission, she was taking Cardura, Vasotec, and Metoprolol. Her electrocardiogram showed bradycardia at 40 with a left bundle branch pattern and she had 2:1 AV block. Her chest x-ray showed an enlarged heart with pleural effusions and cephalization, and her laboratory data SMA-7 was within normal limits. She underwent pacemaker placement without any difficulty and it was interrogated the day after placement without any problem. She was discharged in stable condition with no reportable disease and no adverse drug reactions on Keflex 250 mg p.o. q.i.d. for 5 days; Norvasc 5 mg p.o. qd; Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg p.o. qd and Vasotec 20 mg p.o. b.i.d. She will follow-up with her Cardiologist in one week and will probably have her blood pressure medications further adjusted at that point.

The patient is a 74-year-old male with a history of acute inferior myocardial infarction in February of 1998 and total occlusion of the mid circumflex with fresh thrombus, complicated by postmyocardial infarction atrial fibrillation with Mobitz type I block, now admitted following syncopal episode. At admission, the laboratory data was significant for a creatinine of 1.6 and a potassium of 5.1. Blood count was normal, CK 39, and cardiac Troponin I 0.02. The patient was loaded on procainamide and MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION included Aspirin 325 mg q.d., Captopril 75 mg t.i.d., NPH insulin 18 q.a.m. and 8 q.p.m., Procainamide 500 mg t.i.d., and Simvastatin 20 mg once a day. The patient underwent evaluation for possible ischemic causes of an arrhythmia and was initially ruled out for myocardial infarction by serial enzymes and electrocardiograms. On standard Bruce protocol exercise tolerance test mibi, the patient went four minutes and thirty seconds, with maximum heart rate 121 and maximum blood pressure 210/85. He had typical chest pain for angina and chest tightness at peak exercise which was relieved with rest. The mibi images showed a mixed MI in basilar half of the inferior wall and mild peri-infarct ischemia in 3/20 segments in the right coronary artery territory. PAST MEDICAL HISTORY included Coronary artery disease, Diabetes mellitus on insulin, Hypertension, Status post bilateral knee replacements, asbestos exposure, and chronic renal insufficiency. The patient underwent cardiac catheterization which revealed a normal left main, left anterior descending artery with minor irregularities, left circumflex with 90 percent in-stent restenosis in proximal segment with a dominant left circumflex, and right coronary artery with a mid 50 percent lesion. He underwent successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of the in-stent restenosis and was subsequently continued on aspirin. After the procainamide was held, the patient underwent electrophysiology study revealing normal sinus node recovery time, impaired AV nodal conduction, no inducible sustained ventricular tachycardia, and no inducible supraventricular tachycardia or atrial fibrillation. The patient was discharged to home with plans to follow-up with his primary cardiologist, perhaps with a Holter or event monitor and was prescribed Aspirin 325 mg q.d., Captopril 75 mg t.i.d., NPH Humulin insulin 18 units q.a.m. and 8 units q.p.m., nitroglycerin sublingual tablets, Vitamin E, and Simvastatin 20 mg q.h.s.

This 54-year-old female patient with a history of pulmonary emboli in 1971 and 1988 presented with four days of pleuritic chest pain and left arm heaviness. Her past medical history includes dysfunctional uterine bleeding, iron deficiency anemia, lumbosacral disc disease, and a status post laminectomy three times. In July of 1994, she developed the acute onset of intermittent chest pressure and left arm heaviness, associated with night sweats, which progressed to constant and was unrelieved with two Advils. She had a History of Strep Pharyngitis in August of 1994, which was treated with Penicillin, and her medication on admission was Motrin prn. She had no known drug allergies and her past medical history was as pertinent to her admission. After a thrombotic workup, with the exception of the Russell viper venom which was pending at the time of dictation, all tests returned within normal limits. A chest X-ray, VQ scan, and EKG were performed with the VQ scan read as intermediate probability and the EKG revealing a sinus bradycardia at 54 with normal axis and intervals. A pulmonary arteriogram was performed on hospital day number two which revealed a mean RA pressure of 7 mm of mercury, a mean RV pressure of 12 mm of mercury, and no filling defects to suggest a pulmonary embolus. She received Heparin and was started on Naprosyn at 500 mg p.o. b.i.d. on hospital day number two. Coumadin therapy was discussed and the patient was discharged to home on Naprosyn 500 mg p.o. b.i.d. with meals and was to follow up with Dr. Owen Albertine on November, 1994 at 1:30 p.m.

What medication has the patient take for temperature

The patient is a 76-year-old female with a history of mitral regurgitation, congestive heart failure, recurrent UTIs, and uterine prolapse who presented with chills and hypotension and was admitted to the Medical ICU for treatment of septic shock. Mean arterial pressures were kept above 65 with Levophed and antibiotics were changed to penicillin 3 million units IV q.4h. and gentamicin 50 mg IV q.8h. An ATEE on 10/19 showed severe mitral regurgitation with posterior leaflet calcifications and linear density concerning for endocarditis, for which a PICC line was placed on 1/19 for a six-week course of penicillin 3 million units IV q.4h. and two-week course of gentamicin 50 mg IV q.8h. until 2/25. The patient was initially treated with Levophed for her hypotension until 11/0, and was placed on Levofloxacin and Vancomycin to treat Gram-positive cocci bacteremia and UTI. She was maintained on telemetry and was found to be a normal sinus rhythm with ectopy, including short once of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia. She was started on Lopressor 12.5 mg t.i.d. on 3/18, and this was increased to 25 mg b.i.d. at discharge, with her heart rates continuing to be between the 70s and the 90s, however, with less episodes of ectopy. Aspirin was given, and Lipitor was initially held for an initial transaminitis presumed to be secondary to shock liver. She had guaiac positive stools in the medical ICU, her hematocrit was stable around 33%, and her iron studies suggested anemia of chronic disease with possibly overlying iron deficiency. She had a normal random cortisol level of 35.3, and her Hemoglobin A1c was 6.5, so she was maintained thereafter only on insulin sliding scale and rarely required any coverage. The patient was kept on Lovenox and Protonix and her DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS include Aspirin 81 mg daily, iron sulfate 325 mg daily, gentamicin sulfate 50 mg IV q.8h. until 2/25 for a two-week course, penicillin G potassium 3 million units IV q.4h. until 0/12 for a six-week course, Lopressor 25 mg b.i.d., Caltrate plus D2 tablets p.o. daily, Lipitor 10 mg daily, and Protonix 40 mg daily. She was discharged to rehabilitation at Acanmingpeerra Virg Tantblu Medical Center in order to be able to get her antibiotic therapy, and her physicians will attempt to add the ACE back onto her medical regimen for better afterload reduction as her blood pressure tolerates, and potentially they will add her back on to the Lasix as well. She will require weekly lab draws to check her electrolytes and CBC while she is on the antibiotics.

Has this patient ever been treated with gentamicin

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

Randy Szalay is a 60 year old female with DMII, PVD, chronic AF and a DDI pacer on coumadin who has had a history of recurrent LE ulcerations. She was admitted to medicine with an RLE ulcer, diabetic foot ulcer with ? osteo (Plain films negative but early signs may be absent). She was started on Unasyn in the ED and tolerated it, but was allergic to quinolones and cephalosporins. A bone scan was ordered, and wound swab cx grew 2+ staph aureus with susceptibilities showing MRSA. An ID consult was recommended to continue Unasyn and switch to PO linezolid since the pt refused to take bactrim stating allergy to the med. An Ortho consult was done for debridement of the wound to viable tissue, and the pt was to follow up with Dr. Linkous her out pt orthopedist for reconstructive therapy of her right foot after a vascular evaluation.

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

Mr. Royce Meidlinger is a 78-year-old male who was admitted on 11/12/05 with ADMISSION MEDICATIONS including Atenolol 25 mg daily, allopurinol 300 mg daily, and Flomax 0.8 mg daily. Cardiovascularly, he was on aspirin and had a pacemaker for sick sinus and was saturating well on 2 liters of oxygen delivered by Dobbhoff. Respiratorily, white count at preop baseline was afebrile completing 21 day course of linezolid for EC bacteremia and chest x-ray improved after adding low-dose Lasix. Renally, there was a postoperative increase in creatinine requiring dopamine 2 mcg, continued high chest tube output and an official echo report showed moderate TR, with no changes from prior echos. Hematology was treated with aspirin and anticoagulation and he had left upper extremity DVT as well, was started on argatroban, PTT to be therapeutic, with argatroban dose increased from 0.1 to 0.2, bridging to Coumadin, and argatroban dose reduced to maintain PTT of 50. He had profuse GI bleeding requiring 3 units of packed red blood cells, 2 units packed red blood cells with improvement in hematocrit, NG-tube aspiration with melena, and was HIT positive with worsening clinical syndrome. Foley was put in place with Lasix for reduced urine output and left hand demarcated with argatroban dose increased from 0.1 to 0.2, bridging to Coumadin, restarting Coumadin, postop day #51, patient went to OR with plastics for toe finger amputations/left hand debridement, holding tube feeds, was on triple antibiotic therapy for sputum/blood culture, and rehabilitation when restarting Coumadin. Postop day #54

What was the dosage prescribed of dopamine

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

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