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.

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

Mr. Lewter is a 65-year-old gentleman with a history of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and peripheral vascular disease who presented to Tci Prosamp Memorial Hospital on 5/1/06 with unstable angina. EKG revealed sinus tachycardia with a new incomplete left bundle-branch block and downsloping 1-1.5 mm ST depressions in V3 through V6 and 1 mm depression in aVL. Cardiac catheterization revealed an ostial 100% stenosis in the left circumflex coronary artery, a proximal 60% stenosis and a mid 50% stenosis in the left anterior descending coronary artery, a proximal 80% stenosis and a mid 60% stenosis in the right coronary artery, a right dominant circulation, an ejection fraction of 30%, and collateral flow from the second diagonal to the third marginal in the right posterior left ventricular branch to the second marginal, as well as left ventricular hypokinesis and severe inferior and apical. The patient was not heparinized due to the fact that he was on Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease with a therapeutic INR. On 9/18/06, the patient underwent coronary artery bypass graft x3 with left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery, a sequential graft and a vein graft connecting from the aorta to the second obtuse marginal coronary artery and then to the left ventricular branch.

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.

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.

The 65-year-old female patient with a history of hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, and no known hx of CAD was admitted with chest pain. On November 1997, an exercise treadmill test revealed a maximal heart rate of 127 and maximal blood pressure of 134/80, with 1 millimeter of ST depression in V5 and T-wave inversions in V4-V6, consistent with, but not diagnostic ischemia. She had a history of sarcoidosis, seizure disorder, pacemaker placement, appendectomy, total abdominal hysterectomy for cervical cancer, adult onset diabetes mellitus, and left calf deep vein thrombosis in 1993. Medications at the time of admission included Linsinopril 5 mg q.d., Pravachol 20 mg q.h.s., aspirin 325 mg q. day, atenolol 0.5 mg b.i.d., Dilantin 200 mg b.i.d., Ventolin inhaler p.r.n., and ferrous gluconate 325 mg t.i.d. Hematocrit on June 1997 was noted to be 29.3 and the patient had been on iron supplements since then. On admission, she was given Nitrol paste and, for her ischemia, she was transfused with one unit of packed red cells. Diagnostic ischemia was present, and she was started on aspirin and atenolol. In the past, she has been treated with prednisone and black secondary to iron supplementation. Two cardiac catheterizations were performed, which showed a 70% residual osteal diagonal stenosis and 0% left anterior descending stenosis. A stent was placed in the diagonal artery with 0% residual stenosis and her left anterior descending was stented. At the time of discharge her medications included Ticlid 250 mg p.o. b.i.d., albuterol inhaler 2 puffs q.i.d. as needed for shortness of breath, enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., atenolol 37.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., nitroglycerin 1/150 sublingual one tablet q. 5 minutes times three for chest pain, and Dilantin 200 mg p.o. b.i.d. She was also taking linsinopril 5 mg q.d., Pravachol 20 mg q.h.s., ferrous gluconate 325 mg t.i.d., and Ventolin inhaler p.r.n. She is scheduled to followup with Dr. Doug Millis in her office in one week and will follow up with cardiology as an outpatient. | Was the patient ever prescribed albuterol inhaler | {

This is a 69 year-old woman with a history of congestive heart failure and hypertension who presented with a productive cough which was worsening over the past 3-4 days and fever to 101 with chills and shakes and increasing shortness of breath. She had a white blood cell count of 9.3 with 54% polys and 9.6 % eosinophils, a glucose of 377, and a chest x-ray without evidence of congestive heart failure or infiltrate. She was treated in the emergency room with Albuterol nebulizer and plans were to discharge her to home, however, her saturations dropped to 89% on room air with exercise in the emergency room and was admitted for further observation. She was started on intravenous Cefuroxime, and initially improved with decrease in cough and shortness of breath; however, the patient continued to desat with exercise. A repeat chest x-ray was performed which showed no change when compared to the admission film. Her sputum culture grew out Pen-sensitive E-coli and she was continued on her intravenous and then PO antibiotics. She continued to desat with exercise, however, and her cough persisted although she remained afebrile with a slightly elevated white count and moderate peripheral eosinophilia. Her chest exam remained rancorous and the reason for this remained unclear. Given the finding of E-coli in the sputum sample, in addition to the elevated eosinophilia and lack of finding on chest x-ray despite significant findings on chest exam, the possibility of a worm or parasitic disease was raised. She had a Persantine MIBI in March of 1996, on which she had no fixed or reversible defects, and was on nitroglycerin for stable angina - "chest heaviness" after climbing one flight of stairs, relieved by rest and one sublingual nitroglycerin. Her medications on admission included Lasix 40 mg. per day, Insulin 70/30 28 units q a.m. and 5 units q p.m., Verapamil SR 120 mg PO b.i.d., Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg q day, KCL 10 mEq PO q day, Premarin 0.625 mg PO q day, Zestril 20 mg b.i.d., Atenolol, recently discontinued, Tofranil 75 mg PO q HS, Albuterol inhaler two puffs inhaled q.i.d., and Potassium slow release 10 mEq PO q day. She was discharged to home with Albuterol inhaler and instructions to follow up with her primary physician in clinic for further evaluation including PFTs and possible chest CT if symptoms did not abate, and to finish a full ten day course of antibiotics for presumed bronchitis. At the time of discharge the patient's saturation was 92 to 93% on room air and dropping slightly to 90 to 91% with exercise, however she was tolerating this well and was getting relief from her Albuterol inhaler. | Is there a mention of of atenolol usage/prescription in the record | {

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

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. On 10/22, the pt developed a rash on her legs attributed to the Unasyn and was treated with BENADRYL (DIPHENHYDRAMINE HCL) 25 MG PO Q6H PRN Itching and the Unasyn was discontinued. At discharge, the pt had shown marked improvement of both cellulitis and ulcer with the medications FUROSEMIDE 40 MG PO QD HOLD IF: sbp<90, LISINOPRIL 10 MG PO QD HOLD IF: sbp<90, GLYBURIDE 2.5 MG PO QD, COUMADIN (WARFARIN SODIUM) 2.5 MG PO QPM, LINEZOLID 600 MG PO BID Food/Drug Interaction Instruction, SIMVASTATIN 20 MG PO QHS Starting ON 10/11/2005 (0/7) and BENADRYL (DIPHENHYDRAMINE HCL) 25 MG PO Q6H PRN Itching.

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.

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.

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 the patient ever tried lovenox | {

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.

Mr. Almon is a 51 year old gentleman with history of insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and unstable angina who was doing yard work and experienced an episode of nausea and vomiting along with chest discomfort. His EKG was noted to have an old T wave inversion in lead 3 which was now upright and ST depressions that were normalizing, along with CKs of 974 and MB 24.3 and Troponin level of 1.77. He received aspirin 5 mg of intravenous Lopressor, Heparin drip and Adenosine MIBI. Cardiac catheterization revealed Right dominant system, no significant left main lesions identified, left anterior descending coronary artery with a discreet mid 65% lesion, distal 99% lesion and first diagonal coronary artery with a proximal discrete 70% lesion, left circumflex coronary artery with a distal after the second obtuse marginal discrete 60% lesion, supplying the second obtuse marginal. First marginal coronary artery had an ostial discrete 90% lesion and a second obtuse marginal had an ostial discrete 100% lesion. Right coronary artery had a mid discrete 95% lesion supplying the right posterior descending coronary artery. The patient underwent echocardiogram which revealed mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size and left ventricular systolic function mildly reduced with an estimated ejection fraction of 45%, severe hypokinesis of the basal and mid segments of the inferior wall and inferior septum, and severe hypokinesis of the posterior wall, apex and distal anterior wall. He underwent coronary artery bypass graft x 3 with a left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending artery, saphenous vein graft to the obtuse marginal coronary artery and saphenous vein graft to the intermediate coronary artery. Postoperatively, he was extubated on postoperative day number one and transferred to the step down unit, with a T.max of 99. He had serous drainage from the inferior aspect of his sternal incision. He was started on Keflex 500 mg four times a day for 10 days. Discharge medications included Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg once a day, ibuprofen 200 to 800 mg every 4 to 6 h p.r.n. pain, NPH Humulin insulin 44 units in the morning, 14 units in the evening, regular insulin 6 units twice a day, Niferex 150 mg twice a day, potassium chloride 20 mEq once a day, Zocor 40 mg once in the evening, Atenolol 50 mg once a day, Lisinopril 10 mg once a day, Keflex 500 mg four times a day for 10 days for his superficial sternal wound infection and torsemide 60 mg twice a day, and he was discharged to home in stable condition. | Has this patient ever been prescribed keflex | {

The patient, a 77 year old woman, was admitted with complaint of urinary frequency and AMS. She has a possible allergy to Penicillins with a reaction of RASH and cannot tolerate floroquinolones. She was prescribed ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID 81 MG PO QD, LISINOPRIL 10 MG PO QD Starting Today ( 6/25 ), KCL SLOW RELEASE PO ( ref # 761602437 ), TOPROL XL ( METOPROLOL SUCCINATE EXTENDED RELEASE ) 100 MG PO BID HOLD IF: hr<55 , sbp<95, LANTUS ( INSULIN GLARGINE ) 19 UNITS QAM SC QAM Starting Today ( 6/17 ), WARFARIN SODIUM 5 MG PO QPM Starting ROUTINE , 20:00 ( Standard Admin Time ), ROSIGLITAZONE 2 MG PO QD, FUROSEMIDE 20 MG PO BID Starting Today ( 6/25 ) PRN Other:LE edema, SIMVASTATIN 10 MG PO QHS, CEFPODOXIME PROXETIL 200 MG PO BID X 16 doses Starting Today ( 6/25 ) HOLD IF: rash, and DIGOXIN 0.125 MG PO QOD with Food/Drug Interaction Instruction to Give with meals. Her AFIB became tachy to 140's with an elevated troponin to 1.69 which rose to a max of 2.41 with no EKG changes and was rate controlled and started on Levofloxacin. She was given 2 doses of vancomycin to cover potential staph infection and had an adenosine MIBI that showed no perfusion defects. Her INR was increasing due to the levofloxacin effect and was switched to ceftriaxone consistant with blood culture succeptabilities. Follow up blood cultures on 0/27 demostrated gram positive cocci in clusters and antibiotics were d/c'd after repeat cultures were negative. Her cardiac workup included an echocardiogram with RV dialation and wall akinesis with apical sparing , a new finding since last echo in '03. We have altered cardiac medications for better rate control by cancelling the coreg( carvedelol ) and Norvasc( amilodipine ) and replacing them with a blood pressure medication, Toprol XL( Metoprolol XL ) to better control the rate of her atrial fibrillation and the digoxin was also added for heart rate control. The patient was discharged in good condition and was given instructions to take the full course of antibiotics which cover the next 8days, to take medications with meals or on empty stomach and to avoid high Vitamin-K containing foods, to call PCP with any changes in urinary symptoms, or fever >101.0, return to ER if any changes in mental status, chest pain, SOB, or syncope, and follow-up with PCP within the next week with INR and digoxin levels. Do not use lasix unless necessary and contact PCP if using more than 1-2 times per week due to possible toxicity with digoxin use. | Has the patient ever been on levofloxacin. | {

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.

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. | Has the pt. ever been on percocet before | {

The patient is a 37 year old woman with dilated cardiomyopathy admitted with positional chest pain associated with viral prodrome. Her past medical history revealed she was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy in 10-89 and discharged on Lasix, digoxin, and an ACE inhibitor. On 20 May, she was admitted to Orecross Medical Center after complaining of positional chest pain, shortness of breath, and fatigue. On 4 October, she underwent right ventriculogram which showed ejection fraction 24% and global hypokinesis. On 28 May, she complained of four days of diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and malaise, followed by sharp severe chest pain in the mid chest below the left breast radiating to the back, which was relieved by lying on the left and aggravated by leaning forward or lying on the right. Her past medical history was significant for cardiomyopathy, hypertension, gastritis, ex-intravenous drug abuser for 10 years, anemia, and recent crack cocaine use. On admission, her medications included Lasix, Enalapril, and digoxin with no known drug allergies. Her hospital course was consistent with continuation of her pain through the first day of hospitalization despite an aggressive anti-ischemic regimen. It was found that her myocardial band electrophoresis showed no myocardial band fraction detected and it was decided to shift therapy to a more anti-inflammatory regimen to control her pericarditis with Indocin. With the resolution of her chest pain, the T-wave inversions corrected and she was transerred to the floor on Indocin 50 milligrams 3 times a day, aspirin, Bactrim, Enalapril, and Carafate and remained without chest pain for the next 2 days. The patient was discharged to home with medications on discharge including aspirin, Indocin 50 milligrams by mouth 3 times a day, Enalapril 10 milligrams by mouth each day, and Carafate 1 gram by mouth 4 times a day with follow-up with Dr. Dewitt A.

Of note, the patient recently started Flexeril to treat chronic low back pain, was not receiving her Keppra for approximately a year, as her prescription had ran out, and was instead taking Ecotrin 81 mg daily, clonazepam 1 mg q.6 h. p.r.n., Imodium one to two tablets q.i.d. p.r.n. for diarrhea, and low-dose aspirin. The patient was started on low-dose beta-blocker and aspirin, metoprolol 12.5 b.i.d. with occasional bradycardia to the high 40's, and was treated with the Ryo Hospital Medical Center insulin protocol. The patient was restarted on Keppra 250 mg b.i.d. with a goal to increase to 500 mg b.i.d. after 7 days and to 750 mg after another week, and was given Keppra 500 mg b.i.d. for 14 doses and then 750 mg b.i.d., Flexeril 5 mg daily, clonazepam 1 mg q.i.d., Truvada one tablet p.o. daily, Norvir 1400 mg b.i.d., glyburide 5 mg q.a.m. and 2.5 mg q.p.m., Lomotil one tablet q.i.d. p.r.n., methadone 150 mg daily, Zofran 4 mg daily p.r.n., Percocet 325 mg/5 mg tablets one tablet q.6 h. p.r.n., Zantac 150 mg b.i.d., Zoloft 100 mg q.a.m., and trazodone 100 mg nightly. Labs revealed a low reticulocyte index consistent with anemia of chronic disease, and the methadone dose of 155 mg was confirmed with the outpatient clinic. The patient was also given three doses of Klonopin over a six-day period, instructed to take medications as listed, clarify discrepancies with her PCP, return to the ER for evaluation if she faints again, call her PCP and/or return to the ER if her chest pain symptoms recur and persist, make an appointment with the Smill Memorial Hospital to evaluate the cause of her left arm symptoms, and check her blood sugars before meals and at bedtime. Additionally, her PCP was instructed to arrange for a loop monitor, follow up on a 24-hour urine studies assessing for pheochromocytoma, and adjust the patient's diabetes management as needed. | Has the patient ever had zoloft | {

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. | Has this patient ever been on chemotherapy regimens | {

She was given therapeutic doses of heparin because of the concern of pain, as well as IV fluids, Oxycodone 5 mg to 10 mg p.o. q.4h. p.r.n. pain, Tylenol 650 mg p.o. q.4h. p.r.n. pain, Ibuprofen 600 mg q.6h. p.r.n. pain, Klonopin 1 mg p.o. at bedtime, Levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. daily for six days after the day of discharge, and NSAIDs, and was prescribed Lisinopril 10 mg daily, Lipitor 40 mg daily, Klonopin, MetroGel p.o. at bedtime, Lithium 900 mg at bedtime, Acebutolol 200 mg daily, and Risperdal 0.5 mg at bedtime, with no known drug allergies. She responded well to normal saline fluid boluses for a total of 3 liters over her hospital course, and was treated with Unasyn and vancomycin, and then switched to levofloxacin, with six more days after discharge from the hospital. Her bradycardia was resolved either over beta blockade or lithium toxicity, for which her beta-blocker was held and her lithium was also held, resulting in an improved heart rate in the 50s and 60s. Upon discharge, she was given instructions to draw blood for lithium level checks daily until it is below 0.5, at which time, she should be restarted on lithium 300 mg p.o. at bedtime, and to follow up with her primary care physician, Dr. Aurelio Gilberto Hencheck at Li County Hospital. | How much acebutolol does the patient take per day | {

This is a 66-year-old man with spinal sarcoidosis and secondary paraplegia who presented with altered mental status, hypoxemic respiratory failure, and hypotension. He became hypotensive with intubation despite using etomidate with Levophed, and was started on vancomycin, gentamicin, Flagyl, and stress dose steroids with 1 liter of IV fluid. His urine was found to have Proteus, resistant to Macrobid, and Klebsiella, resistant to ampicillin, so he was started on Levophed with a systolic blood pressure in the 130's on 7 to 10 of Levophed and Levofloxacin was continued at 500 mg per day for a total 10-day course on in the evening, Regular Insulin sliding scale, levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. daily, to end on 10/16/2006 for a total course of 10 days. Urology replaced the suprapubic catheter and he was started on maintenance IV fluids until cleared to eat by Speech and Swallow. His home medications included Regular Insulin sliding scale a.c. and at bedtime, NPH 54 units in the morning and 68 units in the night, baclofen 10 mg t.i.d., amitriptyline 25 mg at bedtime, oxybutynin 5 mg t.i.d., gabapentin 300 mg t.i.d., iron sulfate 325 mg t.i.d., vitamin C 500 mg daily, magnesium 420 mg t.i.d., Coumadin 5 mg daily, ranitidine 150 mg b.i.d., and calcium 950 mg daily. He was given a head CT without contrast and a chest x-ray that showed no obvious infiltrate. His INR was found to be elevated and he had a suprapubic catheter obstruction with bilateral hydronephrosis and distended bladder. He was given Nexium and Coumadin for prophylaxis and was started on a low dose of captopril on 8/14/2006 for diabetes, and was started on 12.5 mg b.i.d. metoprolol on 0/14/2006 with good results. He was given NPH 20 b.i.d. through his hospitalization and Regular Insulin sliding scale. His creatinine came down to 1.2 and he was given the new beta-blocker and the ACE inhibitor as well as baclofen 10 mg p.o. t.i.d., Caltrate 600 Plus D one tablet p.o. b.i.d., ferrous sulfate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., gabapentin 300 mg p.o. t.i.d., NPH human insulin 54 units in the morning, 68 units in the evening, Regular Insulin sliding scale, levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. daily, magnesium oxide 420 mg p.o. t.i.d., metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., oxybutynin 5 mg p.o. t.i.d., Panafil ointment t.i.d., and ranitidine 500 mg p.o. b.i.d. He was admitted with severe sepsis due to UTI, suprapubic catheter/ostomy for 12 years, diabetes type II, right DVT, on Coumadin, status post chronic UTI, and CPAP at night for pneumonia with ceftazidime, levofloxacin, and vancomycin. His sugars were controlled with no complications and was able to maintain blood pressures in the 130's. His creatinine was initially 2.7, and after receiving IV fluids, it came down to 1.2. He likely had acute renal failure secondary to postrenal obstructive etiology. His INR was found to be therapeutic and he had half of his home Coumadin dose while he was on levofloxacin, so he was given half of dose and his INRs came down to a nadir of 1.7. At discharge, his hematocrit was 27.2, down from 29, which was closed to his baseline of 34, and his INR was 2.1. He was placed on maintenance IV fluids until cleared to eat by Speech and Swallow, and was given amitriptyline 25 mg p.o. at bedtime, vitamin C 500 mg p.o. daily, baclofen 10 mg p.o. t.i.d., Caltrate 600 Plus D one tablet p.o. b.i.d., ferrous sulfate | What is the patient's current dose does the patient take of her magnesium | {

The patient is an 83-year-old man with a history of CAD, s/p MI in 1973, s/p CABG x3, T2DM, and hypertension who was admitted with chest pressure and feeling numb in his arms and legs and around his head. He took some SL nitro but does not remember if it helped and denies shortness of breath. His EKG was A-paced and unchanged from March, his CXR had no acute process, and his cardiac enzymes were negative. His stress test from March 2005 revealed a small to medium sized region of myocardial scar/hibernation in the distribution of the PDA coronary artery and no evidence of stress induced ischemia at a low cardiac workload. He went into V-paced rhythm when given dobutamine and the test was submaximal with max HR 98 (77% predicted). No reversible ischemia was seen. He was continued on B-blocker, statin, and persantine, with no aspirin since history of GIB with it, and monitored on telemetry without any events. He also had an adenosine MIBI on 2/8/05 with results as above. Held oral hypoglycemic while in house. Covered with SSI regular qac. His PM was evaluated by EP to r/o pAF and EP interrogation revealed no mode shifts. He was weaned O2 to sat>93%, his creatinine remained at baseline, he avoided aspirin and was continued on PPI, was covered with SSI regular qac, and was given a PT consult.

This is a 48-year-old female who was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia and Klonopin overdose two days prior to admission, having recently completed an antibiotic course at Dale Skin Sonmu Medical Center for pneumonia. She has not taken her lisinopril or methadone in the past. Upon admission, her respiratory rate was 18, O2 saturation 95% on 8 liters of oxygen and she was aggressively given fluids and was started on Levophed for blood pressure support. Her EKG was notable for low voltage on the precordial leads and her saturations were in the high 80's. She was given vancomycin, Levaquin and gentamicin and 3 liters of normal saline. She had a mild troponin elevation on admission, likely secondary to RV strain, and was given a heparin drip with a goal of 60 to 80. Her second PECT showed a small PE to the right upper lobe, but it was not large enough to explain her dramatic presentation. She had severe hypotension and was on two pressors, which were weaned off of on 4/15/06, but had an episode of hypotension when her BiPAP was started. She was given a little bit of low dose dobutamine and then weaned off of that on 3/6/06. She had an elevated eosinophilia on presentation and it was 4% on admission and increased to 8% on 4/21/06. She was empirically covered on admission with vancomycin, levofloxacin and gentamicin. Her antibiotics were given again on 10/16/06 and on 11/13/06. She did complain of bladder spasms while having the Foley in place and was started on Ditropan. She had multiple negative urinalysis and urine cultures. Once the Foley was discontinued, she was able to void and she stopped having bladder spasms. She was started on Monistat for a yeast infection. She did have a history of severe hypertension and her blood pressures were stable, but not high enough to withstand on additional blood pressure lowering medication. It was discussed with her PCP that she perhaps will need this medication restarted as an outpatient. She also had a normal increase in her cortisol level with ACTH stimulation. Her Coumadin was initially given 10, then a dose of 5 and then 2 dose of 7.5. We are continuing her methadone, which has been switched from 20 mg p.o. daily to 10 mg p.o. b.i.d. She was also given a little bit of Ativan while in-house to help with her agitation and anxiety and was initially given a little bit of Haldol, but that was discontinued on 8/4/06 and there was no additional need for that. She was on unfractionated heparin for her presumed PE until 6/15/06 and then changed to Lovenox in the morning and her methadone has been switched from 20 mg p.o. daily to 10 mg p.o. b.i.d. She was given a little bit of low dose lisinopril while in-house. Her blood pressures were stable, but her weight at that time was 157 kg. | What does the patient take ativan for | {

Mr. Wizar is a 51-year-old man who was admitted for repair of left pseudoaneurysm in his groin and was given wet-to-dry dressing changes t.i.d. On 6/3/2003, he was taken to the operating room for left groin closure with flap by Plastic Surgery and Vascular Surgery. He was injected with heparin solution and received serial needle pricks, which improved the appearance of the flap. He was given vancomycin, levofloxacin, and Flagyl for empiric treatment for C. diff, with C. diff cultures being negative on 0/7/2003 and drain cultures showing rare Staphylococcus aureus on 10/6/2003. His Zestril was held secondary to an elevation in creatinine, which gradually resolved. He was also seen by Cardiology and Nutrition and was given supplements, vitamin C, and Zinc for wound healing, with the flap being stable, pink, and viable at the time of discharge. His discharge medications included Aspirin 325 mg once a day; digoxin 0.125 once a day; Ultralente 16 units q.a.m. , 4 units q.p.m.; Zocor 10 mg once a day; Toprol 25 mg once a day; Imdur 30 mg once a day; torsemide 100 mg once a day; lisinopril 2.5 mg once a day; colace; and Percocet. | What medications has this patient tried for C. diff. | {

Ms. Lofstrom is a 57-year-old female with a past medical history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, multinodular goiter, arthritis and questionable recurrent bouts of generalized weakness who was admitted for new onset of right sided weakness, right leg numbness and weakness, right arm clumsiness followed by dysarthria. Laboratory tests showed glucose of 353, sodium 138, potassium 4.9, chloride 98, CO2 28, BUN 33, creatinine 1.1, calcium 10.3, magnesium 2.0, troponin 0.09, white count 8.4, hematocrit 39.8, platelet count 367,000, PT 12.1, PTT 19.5, INR 1.0. An echocardiogram revealed evidence of concentric LVH with preserved systolic function, calculated ejection fraction of 55%, one plus tricuspid regurgitation and normal peak doppler flow velocity across the tricuspid valve. Carotid noninvasive studies showed no evidence of hemodynamically significant disease in either carotid artery. MRI showed a focal area of increased T2 signal in the posterior limb of the left internal capsule, close the genu and a similar smaller area of signal abnormality in the left globus pallidus adjacent to the left internal capsule abnormality. The patient had not taken her insulin for several days prior to admission, and was placed on her regular insulin schedule as well as a sliding scale with blood sugar between 150 and high 200s. Her medications included Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 milligrams once a day, Norvasc 5 milligrams once a day, Taxol 28 milligrams once a day, Premarin 0.625 milligrams once a day, Trazodone, insulin 12 units of regular and 50 units of NPH in the morning and Ansaid 100 milligrams p.o. b.i.d. p.r.n. joint pain. She was also reportedly taking a baby aspirin 81 milligrams once a day, and was placed on subcu heparin and started on full dose aspirin 325 milligrams p.o. q.d. while her antihypertensives were held in order to maintain a systolic blood pressure between 140-160 with a diastolic blood pressure of 85-90. The patient was rehydrated with IV fluids, and close observation was paid to her electrolytes including her potassium. Rheumatology was consulted and recommended checking a urinalysis to check for red blood cells and casts, which showed no protein, no blood, 0-2 red blood cells, and no casts. He therefore suggested to continue aspirin, but in higher doses to alleviate her left shoulder pain. The patient's Norvasc continued to be held with excellent control of her blood pressure between systolic of 140-160, and should not be reinitiated until roughly ten days after her stroke. Social work was consulted due to a history of abuse by her husband, but no further abuse history was elicited since his death. The patient was considered stable and ready for discharge to a rehabilitation facility. | has the patient had insulin | {

Mr. Plagmann was admitted to the hospital for management of his decompensated heart failure and prescribed Aldactone 25 mg once a day, K-Dur 40 mEq once a day, lisinopril 2.5 mg once a day, Isordil 20 mg three times a day, digoxin 0.125 once a day, torsemide 200 mg twice, and metolazone p.r.n. for volume overload. To improve his urine output, we started a low-dose dopamine drip at 2 mcg per hour and increased the Lasix drip from 10 mg an hour to 20 mg an hour after 200 mg IV Lasix bolus, with good effectiveness reflected in his total weight. We monitored strict I's and O's, checked daily weight, and monitored the b.i.d. lytes. Eventually, his blood pressures remained stable, his JVP decreased from 18 to 20 on admission to about 10 to 12, and his creatinine was stable at 1.7. Given his potassium, which was always borderline low in the 33 or 35 range, we decided to increase his Aldactone dose to 25 mg b.i.d., but given his underlying renal insufficiency, we have decreased his standing K-Dur from 40 mEq a day to 20 mEq a day. We re-added his Isordil at 10 mg t.i.d. for the last 24 hours and his blood pressures were stable in the 90s. We also added folate 5 mg to his regimen because he had an elevated homocystine level and he also takes Ambien at night p.r.n. for insomnia. He is being discharged to home with plan to follow up with Dr. Grassi in her Thyroid Clinic on 2/11/05. Mr. Plagmann states that his symptoms have drastically improved and he is able to exert himself much more without symptoms of shortness of breath or lightheadedness. | What his potassium medications have ever been prescribed for pt. in the VA or mentioned in the record | {

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 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.

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.

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

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 a patient had statin | {

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.

Mr. Vendetti is a 61 year old man who was admitted to the cardiac surgical service on 0/14/97 for aortic valve replacement, mitral valve replacement. He had an echocardiogram at an outside hospital that demonstrated a dilated left ventricle and an ejection fraction of 55% with moderate aortic stenosis with moderate to severe aortic insufficiency with a peak gradient of 35 millimeters of mercury, mild to moderate mitral stenosis and moderate mitral insufficiency with a mitral valve area of 1.1 cm squared. His cardiac catheterization on 4/21/97 demonstrated a 95% proximal right coronary artery lesion and an ejection fraction of 50%. His past medical history included rheumatic heart disease and hypertension, and he is a former smoker with a twenty pack year history. On admission, he was taking Toprol XL 50 once a day, aspirin once a day, sublingual nitroglycerin and Zocor 50 once a day. He went to the operating room on 5/16/97 where he had a mitral valve replacement with a #31 St. Jude mechanical prosthesis and an aortic valve replacement with a #25 St. Jude mechanical prosthesis and a right internal mammary artery bypass grafting to the right coronary artery.

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

Ms. Hesby is a 36-year-old woman with very poorly controlled type 1 diabetes, end-stage renal disease, right eye blindness, lower extremity neuropathy, gastroparesis, and a history of extensive infections. She presented to Path Community Hospital with a right thigh burn and infection, and was given a prescription for antibiotics, 20 units of IV insulin, 500 mL normal saline boluses, and several 250 mL boluses, as well as 2 amps of calcium gluconate, Kayexalate, albuterol nebs, and Augmentin and IV vancomycin for her right thigh cellulitis. For long-term management, she was prescribed Lantus 24 units subcu each night, NovoLog sliding scale, PhosLo, Nephrocaps, Vitamin D, Sevelamer 1600 t.i.d., Toprol 100 mg p.o. daily, Lisinopril 5 mg p.o. daily, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Keppra 500 mg p.o. b.i.d., Flovent two puffs b.i.d., Albuterol p.r.n., Baclofen 5 mg p.o. t.i.d., and Ambien 10 mg p.o. at bedtime p.r.n. The patient was admitted with a diagnosis of Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) and was stabilized in the MICU on an insulin waves. She was then transitioned to NPH and finally to Lantus 24 units subcu and her hypertension is being managed on her home dose of Lopressor 25 q.i.d. and switched to Captopril, which is being titrated. Her area of cellulitis has completely resolved, and if she becomes acidotic, the patient can be managed with sodium bicarbonate and D5W in small boluses. The patient is taking her Nephrocaps and sevelamer and is receiving prophylaxis with heparin 5000 units subcu t.i.d., however she has consistently refused her heparin. Of note, on the night of 1/26/06, the patient complained of severe cramping, right lower quadrant pain, which is new. She noted this pain has increased rapidly in the setting of diarrhea. Several C. diff studies, which were sent recently have been negative and the patient has had no blood in her diarrhea. Presumed cause is Augmentin, which has been stopped. The patient has continued to eat freely and is passing diarrhea despite her complaints of 10/10 severe abdominal pain. A CT scan of her abdomen was ordered, but she refused to take oral or IV contrast. The results of this CT scan are pending and will be followed up by the new medical team. | What medication has the patient take for prophylaxis | {
