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. | Has the patient had previous demerol | {

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. The patient was placed on Klonopin 1 mg po tid, Tylenol 650 mg p.o. q4h p.r.n. headache, Aspirin 81 mg p.o. qd, Albuterol nebulizer 0.5 cc in 2.5 cc of normal saline q.i.d., Capoten 25 mg p.o. qh, Chloral hydrate 500 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n. insomnia, Clonopin 1 mg p.o. t.i.d., Digoxin 0.375 mg p.o. qd, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Insulin NPH 38 units subcu b.i.d., Milk of Magnesia 30 cc p.o. qd p.r.n. constipation, Multivitamins one capsule p.o. qd, Mycostatin 5 cc p.o. q.i.d., Percocet one or two tabs p.o. q3-4h p.r.n. pain, Metamucil one packet p.o. qd, Azmacort six puffs inhaled b.i.d., Axid 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Ofloxacin 200 mg p.o. b.i.d. x 7 days, and Insulin NPH 38 units in the morning and 38 units at night. The patient was initially ruled out for a myocardial infarction following his first operative procedure and had no episodes of hypotension. He was switched over from Gentamicin to Ofloxacin to continue his antibiotic course and has been followed by the Infectious Disease service, receiving 7 more days of po Ofloxacin as an outpatient.

This 79-year-old male was admitted for coronary artery disease and aortic stenosis with a history of hypertension, dyslipidemia, chest radiation, prostate cancer, osteoporosis, and urinary incontinence. A CABG x3 with a LIMA to the LAD, a saphenous vein graft to the PDA, and a saphenous vein graft to the obtuse marginal was done on 10/3/06, while the aortic valve was only found to be mildly stenotic. Postoperatively, he was transferred to the Intensive Care Unit in a stable fashion, and was found to have an inferior lateral ischemia on EKG, which was resolved after cardiac catheterization. He was weaned off pressors and extubated, and started on Lopressor and gentle diuresis. On postoperative day #3, his Norvasc was started and he was transferred to the Step-Down Unit. On postoperative day #4, he was slightly tachycardic with ambulation and his beta-blockers were titrated up, with PA and chest x-ray looking good. He was started on empiric levofloxacin for questionable pneumonia and found suitable for discharge on postoperative day #5, however, he had isolated temperature and his white count was found to be trending and he was hypertensive. A positive blood culture was found from when he had been in the Intensive Care Unit and he was continued on levofloxacin, while he was also started on vancomycin due to left leg cellulitis at the knee. On postoperative day #10, a fluid collection was found above the knee to the mid calf, and he underwent a drainage and irrigation of his left lower extremity saphenous vein donor site. After this procedure, he was transferred back to the Step-Down Unit and was discharged on postoperative day #5. | Has this patient ever tried lopressor | {

This is a 59-year-old female with a history of rheumatic heart disease, endocarditis, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and congestive heart failure who presented with increasing shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. She was given recent Levaquin for an upper respiratory tract infection, then started on Flagyl for a possible C. difficile infection and was diuresed with IV Lasix with good output per report. She complained of 10/10 abdominal pain and was given some Dilaudid. Her hematocrit at one point required two units of packed red blood cells, and she was placed on a heparin drip at 950 units per hour to maintain a PTT between 60 and 80 secondary to atrial fibrillation that has been rate controlled with a beta-blocker. She was discharged on diltiazem 30 mg q.i.d. and a normal dosing of Nexium 40 mg p.o. q.d. while in-house. She was given Darvon and Codeine as needed for pain, and was prescribed Caltrate plus Vitamin D 600 mg, Maalox tablets, Magnesium oxide 400 mg, Multivitamin, Niferex 150 mg, and Lovenox 60 mg subcutaneously b.i.d. with a renal adjustment and NovoLog 15 units subcutaneously with breakfast and dinner. The patient was instructed to call Dr. Mccutchan office to coordinate her appointment for her valve repair in the next one to two weeks pending her surgeon's return and to call Dr. Doug Schlanger on March 2005 to discuss surgical plans and also to follow up. All her blood cultures should be followed up prior to her surgery and if any of her blood cultures become positive in the interim, a long course of antibiotic therapy should be started and surgery should be delayed at the discussion of the Cardiovascular Service. Her medications included Lasix 40 mg p.o. q.o.d. alternating with 80 mg p.o. Lasix q.o.d., Digoxin 0.125 mg q.o.d. alternating with 0.25 q.o.d., Lisinopril 20 mg p.o. q.d., Coumadin 6 mg p.o. q.o.d. alternating with 4 mg q.o.d., Omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d., Metformin 500 mg daily, Insulin 70/30 65 units q.a.m., 35 units q.p.m., Calcium 600 mg p.o. b.i.d., Magnesium 400 mg p.o. b.i.d., Multivitamin, Iron tablets, Actonel every Wednesday, Caltrate plus vitamin D 600 mg one tablet p.o. b.i.d., Maalox tablets quick dissolve, Magnesium oxide 400 mg p.o. b.i.d., Niferex 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Senokot three tablets p.o. b.i.d., Codeine 15 mg to 30 mg p.o. q.4h. p.r.n. pain. She was required to increase her dosage of Nexium secondary to GERD-like symptoms and was maintained on a stable regimen of NPH 60 units in the morning, NPH 30 units in the evening, and NovoLog of 15 units in the morning with breakfast and 15 at dinner with a sliding scale. She was also transitioned to Lovenox 60 mg b.i.d. with a renal adjustment and was sent to the ED for diuresis where she was given 60 mg of Lasix. | Has the patient had senokot in the past | {

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.

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

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 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 this patient ever been treated with diuretic | {

In March of 1995, she had a palpable indurated area at 12:00 on the right breast and was seen by Dr. Noguchi in the Surgery Clinic and scheduled for a right breast biopsy. She was admitted to the General Medical Service and given more aggressive hypertensive medications including increasing her ACE inhibitor to Lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q. day, discontinuing her Diltiazem and starting on Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg p.o. q. daily and starting Beta blocker Lopressor 25 mg p.o. q.i.d. and increasing as tolerated according to her blood pressure. The right breast abscess was drained without incident and she was started on IV antibiotics which included Ancef 1 gram IV q. 8h. Other notable events in the hospital included a Psychiatry consult who suggested that the patient had a history of major depression and recommended ruling organic brain disease and a polysonography was done for monitoring of sleep apnea and an MMTI for further diagnostic evaluation. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course with her blood pressure remaining moderately elevated and resolution of her symptoms of right breast tenderness. On discharge, she was given Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q. day, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg p.o. q. daily, Lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q. daily, Tylox 1-2 capsules p.o. q. 4-6h. p.r.n. pain, Atenolol 100 mg p.o. q. daily, and Cephradine 100 mg p.o. q.i.d. times five days, with follow-up in the TLET HOSPITAL Clinic with Dr. Mcgowan and in a Hmotmed Dell An Community Hospital Medical Service. | Has the patient ever tried atenolol | {

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

A 42-year-old male was admitted on 4/30 with congestive heart failure exacerbation, hyperhomocysteinemia, chronic renal failure, obesity, hypercholesterolemia, h/o DVT, asthma, OSA, and a worsening of his dyspnea of exertion (DOE) to 3 miles of flat ground with a suspicion of multifocal pneumonia (PNA). He had a D-dimer of 1400, BNP of 2009, and Troponin of 0.84-0.54, which was not considered ischemic, and was not treated. On this admission, his D-dimer was 1207, BNP was 2917, and Troponin was not sent. He had a JVP to earlobe, bibasilar rales, no wheezes, and diffuse pitting edema to his bilateral shins. He had a chest X-ray (CXR) showing increased bilat LL opacities to the periphery with some cephalization of vessels and some opacification. An electrocardiogram (ECG) showed 98 bpm with left anterior fascicular block (LAE) and strain. A chest CT scan from 8/18 (comparing to 4/30) showed per pulm c/w scarring/persistent changes after recent multifocal PNA 4/30, no e/o of new primary lung path, and ground glass c/w pulmonary edema. An echocardiogram showed an ejection fraction (EF) of 25%, moderate right ventricular (RV) dysfunction, and severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR). A follow-up cardiac MRI from 10/16 showed an EF of 23%, global hypokinesis, no wall motion abnormality (WMA), normal RV, and no valve disease. In the ED, he received Duonebs, ASA 325, and Lasix 80mg. His shortness of breath was secondary to CHF exacerbation and fluid overload with no evidence of an infectious pulmonary process contributing to his symptoms. His hypertension was most likely due to taking the wrong dose of Coreg (taking QOD instead of BID). On a BID Coreg regimen, his BP was much better controlled. His renal function remained stable but impaired while he was being evaluated for dialysis as an outpatient but no vascular access was placed yet. He was discharged on 6/7/05 with a full code status and disposition to home with food/drug interaction instruction to take consistently with meals or on empty stomach and activity to walk as tolerated with follow up appointments with Dr. Sackrider at ACH 5/6/05 at 1:30 PM scheduled, Dr. Dauphin at CMC 0/4/05 at 1:40 PM scheduled.

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. | What medicines have previously been tried for low grade fevers | {

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 a patient had ansaid | {

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

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

The patient is a 75-year-old female with a history of 2. Diabetes , on insulin, congestive heart failure, bilateral occipital CVAs, hypertension, chronic renal insufficiency, coronary artery disease, visual impair with tunnel vision, monoclonal gammopathy, and left upper extremity thrombophlebitis. She was found at home with altered mental status and a fingerstick of 37, which increased to 42 with orange juice and normalized her mental status. She was given 1. Lasix 80 mg p.o q.d. in the morning , 40 mg p.o. q.d. in the evening, 2. Atenolol 75 mg p.o. q.d., 3. Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.d., 4. Amitriptyline 25 to 50 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n., 5. Multivitamins., 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Folate 100 mg p.o. q.d., 8. Lisinopril 20 mg p.o. q.d., 9. Iron gluconate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., 10. Novolin 34 to 40 units subcu. q.d., 11. Epogen 5000 units subcu. q. week., 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., and 2. Metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d. Her NPH dose was cut to 20 units subcu. q.d. with lispro sliding scale q.a.c. and q.h.s., and Metoprolol was changed to Toprol as her blood pressure tolerates. Lisinopril was switched to captopril, then discontinued given her bumping which might suggest thalassemia. She is on iron and Epogen with Prophylaxis: Heparin and H2 blocker. Her minimally needed insulin was 5 units a day and her sugars were well controlled otherwise low. Lasix was decreased to 80 mg p.o. b.i.d. and the x-ray on the day of her discharge showed it was unlikely consolidated lobar pneumonia because of the improved forward flow from discontinuation of her ACE inhibitor. She was admitted with hypoglycemic diabetes possibly secondary to infection or logistical and social barriers, and was treated initially with levofloxacin for her right lower lobe pneumonia versus CHF, pleural effusion which decreased only minimally with diuresis of 1 to 2 liters overnight and for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes she underwent a thoracentesis on 2/11/05. Her chronic renal insufficiency was noted with creatinine at baseline of 2.6 and it decreased significantly on this admission possibly because of improved forward flow from discontinuation of her ACE inhibitor. She was on iron and Epogen with an improved hematocrit from the prior admission but no change in her MCV which suggests that she has more than renal disease causing her microcytosis. Her diabetc diet was low sodium, low fat, low cholesterol and prophylaxis included Heparin and H2 blocker. Her discharge medications included 1. Lasix 80 mg p.o. b.i.d., 2. Metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., 3. Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.d., 4. Amitriptyline 25 to 50 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n., 5. Multivitamins, 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Folate 100 mg p.o. q.d., 8. Lisinopril 20 mg p.o. q.d., 9. Iron gluconate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., and 10. Epogen 5000 units subcu. q. week. She was screened for admission to Jack Nor Medical Center Of where she will go today with intense physical therapy and learning greater independence in her daily functioning. Her pelvic films were negative for fracture. She should be ambulated t.i.d. with follow up with Dr. Rufener when she is able, Lasix dose can be increased as needed for better diuresis, and studies pending include cytology and culture of pleural fluid and follow-up chest x-ray on the day of her discharge. | Has a patient had captopril | {

Mr. Notari was admitted to the Orthopaedic Hand Service on 1/18/2006 with a history of increased right shoulder pain following a cellulitis of the right hand. An ESR was checked on admission and was slightly elevated at 18. He was afebrile and non-toxic, therefore was not started on antibiotics. Dilaudid was added to his pain regimen for his increased discomfort. On 9/25/2006 a CT guided right shoulder joint fluid aspiration was performed by Radiology. Analysis of this fluid was not consistent with joint infection. He received Lovenox for DVT prophylaxis during his admission. On HD#4 he was awake, alert, appropriate and afebrile with stable vital signs. His pain was well controlled on oral medications. He was discharged to home with a prescription for COLACE (DOCUSATE SODIUM) 100 MG PO BID, NEXIUM (ESOMEPRAZOLE) 40 MG PO BID, DILAUDID (HYDROMORPHONE HCL) 2-6 MG PO Q4H PRN Pain, ATROVENT HFA INHALER (IPRATROPIUM INHALER) 2 PUFF INH QID PRN Shortness of Breath, LOPRESSOR (METOPROLOL TARTRATE) 12.5 MG PO BID, MS CONTIN (MORPHINE CONTROLLED RELEASE) 45 MG PO QAM, MS CONTIN (MORPHINE CONTROLLED RELEASE) 30 MG PO QPM, SIMVASTATIN 80 MG PO DAILY, TERAZOSIN HCL 10 MG PO DAILY, and Number of Doses Required (approximate): 3, with instructions to do pendulum range of motion exercises regularly, not to drive a motor vehicle, drink any alcohol or operate machinery while taking the medication, drink plenty of water and take a stool softener (Colace) to help prevent constipation, not to drive a car until cleared to do so by a doctor, and to resume home medications unless specifically instructed otherwise. He was also advised to call a doctor or go to a local emergency room if he developed any concerning symptoms.

The patient is a 75-year-old female with a history of 2. Diabetes , on insulin, congestive heart failure, bilateral occipital CVAs, hypertension, chronic renal insufficiency, coronary artery disease, visual impair with tunnel vision, monoclonal gammopathy, and left upper extremity thrombophlebitis. She was found at home with altered mental status and a fingerstick of 37, which increased to 42 with orange juice and normalized her mental status. She was given 1. Lasix 80 mg p.o q.d. in the morning , 40 mg p.o. q.d. in the evening, 2. Atenolol 75 mg p.o. q.d., 3. Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.d., 4. Amitriptyline 25 to 50 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n., 5. Multivitamins., 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Folate 100 mg p.o. q.d., 8. Lisinopril 20 mg p.o. q.d., 9. Iron gluconate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., 10. Novolin 34 to 40 units subcu. q.d., 11. Epogen 5000 units subcu. q. week., 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., and 2. Metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d. Her NPH dose was cut to 20 units subcu. q.d. with lispro sliding scale q.a.c. and q.h.s., and Metoprolol was changed to Toprol as her blood pressure tolerates. Lisinopril was switched to captopril, then discontinued given her bumping which might suggest thalassemia. She is on iron and Epogen with Prophylaxis: Heparin and H2 blocker. Her minimally needed insulin was 5 units a day and her sugars were well controlled otherwise low. Lasix was decreased to 80 mg p.o. b.i.d. and the x-ray on the day of her discharge showed it was unlikely consolidated lobar pneumonia because of the improved forward flow from discontinuation of her ACE inhibitor. She was admitted with hypoglycemic diabetes possibly secondary to infection or logistical and social barriers, and was treated initially with levofloxacin for her right lower lobe pneumonia versus CHF, pleural effusion which decreased only minimally with diuresis of 1 to 2 liters overnight and for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes she underwent a thoracentesis on 2/11/05. Her chronic renal insufficiency was noted with creatinine at baseline of 2.6 and it decreased significantly on this admission possibly because of improved forward flow from discontinuation of her ACE inhibitor. She was on iron and Epogen with an improved hematocrit from the prior admission but no change in her MCV which suggests that she has more than renal disease causing her microcytosis. Her diabetc diet was low sodium, low fat, low cholesterol and prophylaxis included Heparin and H2 blocker. Her discharge medications included 1. Lasix 80 mg p.o. b.i.d., 2. Metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., 3. Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.d., 4. Amitriptyline 25 to 50 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n., 5. Multivitamins, 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Folate 100 mg p.o. q.d., 8.

She was screened for admission to Jack Nor Medical Center Of where she will go today with intense physical therapy and learning greater independence in her daily functioning. Her pelvic films were negative for fracture. She should be ambulated t.i.d. with follow up with Dr. Rufener when she is able, Lasix dose can be increased as needed for better diuresis, and studies pending include cytology and culture of pleural fluid and follow-up chest x-ray on the day of her discharge. | has there been a prior lisinopril | {

Mr. Zack Nieman is a 62-year-old white man with ischemic cardiomyopathy, status post coronary artery bypass graft in 1985 with left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending, saphenous vein graft to posterior descending artery, saphenous vein graft to obtuse marginal branch, and a repeat coronary artery bypass graft done in 1995 with saphenous vein graft to first diagonal, saphenous vein graft to obtuse marginal, and saphenous vein graft to posterior descending artery. He had multiple episodes of pulmonary congestion and was admitted to Rorea Valley Health for IV diuresis. EKG revealed atrial flutter with variable block (2:1 versus 3:1), rate around 120, left bundle branche block, and echocardiogram revealed ejection fraction about 25% with 2+ mitral regurgitation. On admission, his temperature was 97.1, pulse 103, blood pressure 148/94, respirations 18, and O2 saturation 97% on two liters. Because of his rapid ventricular response, Digoxin was started with a loading dose of 0.5 mg, then 0.25 mg times two q. six hours, and the patient was then on a maintenance dose of Digoxin at 0.125 mg p.o. q. day, and his Digoxin level has been maintained around 0.9. For his rate control, the amiodarone was also increased to 400 mg q. day, and the patient was started on anticoagulation with heparin. The patient underwent cardioversion through his AICD by the Electrophysiological Service with successful conversion to normal sinus rhythm, and was loaded with Coumadin and meanwhile on heparin until INR between 2-3. The patient developed hyperthyroidism secondary to amiodarone, treated with PTU, then developed hypothyroidism, treated with Levothyroxine.

Mr. Mauras is a 72-year-old man with history of stable angina, type 2 diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, former smoking history, and history of seizure disorder with cataracts. He had occasional anginal symptoms prior to discharge and took about two nitroglycerins per week. Over the past week, he had escalating chest pain requiring one nitroglycerin per day. The pain was relieved by rest and nitroglycerin. One week prior to admission, his digoxin was stopped and his amiodarone was decreased. His Plavix was stopped and his Coumadin was held. On the morning of admission, he had chest pain and received Lopressor, Enalapril, Lovenox treatment dose and a Plavix load in the ED. He was found to have flash pulmonary edema and in atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and was taken back to the catheterization lab and given four stents to his saphenous vein graft, OM1 with good resolution of his symptoms. He was transferred to the floor and was given an amiodarone load given his ejection fraction and increased ectopy on telemetry. His troponin had been trended down to the 0.2s by discharge and his beta-blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated to heart rate and blood pressure. Prior to anticipated discharge, he re-developed flash pulmonary edema secondary to atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and was re-loaded with digoxin. He was started on Mucomyst precath with good effect, had a difficult-to-place Foley, and was started on Flomax with good effect. His creatinine on discharge was 1.2, his metformin was held, and he was continued on Lantus with sliding scale insulin. He was given three units of packed red blood cells given his history of CAD and was prescribed with Amiodarone 200 mg, Enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg, Librium 10 mg, Colace 200 mg, Ferrous gluconate 324 mg, Lasix 40 mg, Nitroglycerin one tab, Dilantin 100 mg, Senna two tabs, Coumadin 3 mg, Lipitor 80 mg, Flomax 0.4 mg, Plavix 75 mg, Lantus 14 units, Metformin 500 mg, Ranitidine 150 mg, Digoxin 0.125 mg, Enalapril 10 mg, and Atenolol 50 mg, with follow-up appointments with his PCP, Dr. Kelley Hernon of Electrophysiology on 7/8/05, and Dr. Daft on 9/20/05, and INR checked on 8/4/05 or 7/8/05 with Coumadin adjusted accordingly. | Is the patient currently or have they ever taken flomax | {

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. Lipid panel was good with total cholesterol 163 and LDL 86 HDL 43. ACE was uptitrated to optimize BP, increased to 30 mg daily with improved BP with SBP in 110s. 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 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. | Is there a mention of of lovenox usage/prescription in the record | {

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. | Has this patient ever been prescribed antibiotics. | {

The patient was admitted to the neurology service on 11/6/92 with a two week history of right sided weakness. While on Decadron, Motrin and Flexeril, he noted some improvement. He had a perforated ulcer in 1980 and surgery for a hiatal hernia in 1982, and a cholecystectomy and partial gastrectomy and colectomy in 1983. On admission, he had full range of motion with increased pain with extension of his neck, and 5/5 strength on the left while 4/5 on the right. MRI showed C5-6 and C6-7 disc bulge, and CAT scan showed severe stenosis of C6-7 with osteophyte, moderate stenosis at C5-6. He underwent C4-5, C5-6, C6-7 laminectomy and the estimated blood loss was less than 100 cc. Postoperatively he had good upper extremity strength which seemed to improve. He was on discharge medications of Colace, klonopin, Flexeril and Percocet and was to follow-up with Dr. Mcnail in one to two weeks. | Has the patient had motrin in the past | {

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. | What medications has the patient ever tried for copd prevention | {

The patient is a 65-year-old female who presented with the sudden onset of right upper quadrant and epigastric abdominal pain. She had been given some Demerol with some relief but she had persistent pain. An ultrasound two years prior to admission showed sludge in her gallbladder with no other abnormalities noted and an ultrasound on the night of admission showed multiple small stones and a gallbladder with sludge and thickening of the gallbladder wall. She was admitted to the Teeleah Valley Medical Center, given Vistaril, Premarin, Clinoril, and triple intravenous antibiotics, kept NPO, and placed on intravenous hydration. On 10 of May, she underwent an esophagogastroduodenoscopy, a cholecystectomy with an intraoperative cholangiogram, and common bile duct exploration with T-Tube placement. Intraoperatively, she was found to have a large inflamed gallbladder with multiple small cholesterol stones in her gallbladder and two stones in her common duct. Post-operatively, she remained stable and was transferred to the Recovery Room and eventually back to the floor.

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. | Previous metoprolol sustained release | {

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 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 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. | What treatments has patient been on for severe tr in the past | {

Mr. Lewter is a 65-year-old gentleman with a history of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and peripheral vascular disease who presented to Tci Prosamp Memorial Hospital on 5/1/06 with unstable angina. EKG revealed sinus tachycardia with a new incomplete left bundle-branch block and downsloping 1-1.5 mm ST depressions in V3 through V6 and 1 mm depression in aVL. Cardiac catheterization revealed an ostial 100% stenosis in the left circumflex coronary artery, a proximal 60% stenosis and a mid 50% stenosis in the left anterior descending coronary artery, a proximal 80% stenosis and a mid 60% stenosis in the right coronary artery, a right dominant circulation, an ejection fraction of 30%, and collateral flow from the second diagonal to the third marginal in the right posterior left ventricular branch to the second marginal, as well as left ventricular hypokinesis and severe inferior and apical. The patient was not heparinized due to the fact that he was on Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease with a therapeutic INR. On 9/18/06, the patient underwent coronary artery bypass graft x3 with left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery, a sequential graft and a vein graft connecting from the aorta to the second obtuse marginal coronary artery and then to the left ventricular branch. He was on medications including Lopressor 37.5 mg b.i.d., aspirin 325 mg daily, Colace 100 mg b.i.d., Pepcid 20 mg IV q.12h., insulin sliding scale, atorvastatin 80 mg daily, glipizide, Avandia, Zestril, metformin, meclizine, lactulose, vitamin C, Protonix, Niaspan, Neurontin, Zincate, and Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease.

This 79-year-old male was admitted for coronary artery disease and aortic stenosis with a history of hypertension, dyslipidemia, chest radiation, prostate cancer, osteoporosis, and urinary incontinence. A CABG x3 with a LIMA to the LAD, a saphenous vein graft to the PDA, and a saphenous vein graft to the obtuse marginal was done on 10/3/06, while the aortic valve was only found to be mildly stenotic. Postoperatively, he was transferred to the Intensive Care Unit in a stable fashion, and was found to have an inferior lateral ischemia on EKG, which was resolved after cardiac catheterization. He was weaned off pressors and extubated, and started on Lopressor and gentle diuresis. On postoperative day #3, his Norvasc was started and he was transferred to the Step-Down Unit. On postoperative day #4, he was slightly tachycardic with ambulation and his beta-blockers were titrated up, with PA and chest x-ray looking good. He was started on empiric levofloxacin for questionable pneumonia and found suitable for discharge on postoperative day #5, however, he had isolated temperature and his white count was found to be trending and he was hypertensive. A positive blood culture was found from when he had been in the Intensive Care Unit and he was continued on levofloxacin, while he was also started on vancomycin due to left leg cellulitis at the knee. On postoperative day #10, a fluid collection was found above the knee to the mid calf, and he underwent a drainage and irrigation of his left lower extremity saphenous vein donor site. After this procedure, he was transferred back to the Step-Down Unit and was discharged on postoperative day #5. | What treatments if any has the patient tried for left leg cellulitis in the past | {

Mr. Raffo is a 59-year-old male with a history of coronary artery disease status post small non-ST elevation myocardial infarction in March of 2000 and also status post cardiac catheterization with 2 vessel disease, small left PICA cerebrovascular accident, congestive heart failure with an echocardiogram in March revealing an ejection fraction of 30%, diabetes mellitus type II complicated by retinopathy, nephropathy and question neuropathy, and hypertension and hypercholesterolemia. On admission, he was on medications including Aspirin daily, Lasix 80 mg p.o. q day, Zaroxolyn 2.5 mg p.o. q day, toprol XL 50 mg p.o. q day, insulin 70/30 65/45, Actos 45 q p.m, Avapro 300 mg p.o. q day, Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., and sublingual nitroglycerin p.r.n. For his cardiovascular issues, he was diuresed with doses of Lasix 200 mg b.i.d. IV, as well as Zaroxolyn, with a weight on admission of 135 kg and on discharge of 132 kg. A repeat echocardiogram at Ethool Hospital showed an ejection fraction of 30-35, left ventricular dimensions of 47 mm, 1 plus mitral regurgitation and global hypokinesis, as well as moderate right ventricular dysfunction. His chronic renal insufficiency is likely secondary to poor diabetic control, with a creatinine of 2.5 on March, 2001 and 3.3 at the time of admission. Acute renal failure with increasing creatinine of 6 after aggressive diuresis with a mean of 0.8 percent was treated with Dopamine started on November, 2001 to aid with renal perfusion and diuresis, which was then weaned off on August, 2001. He was discharged home with services and medications including Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q day, Lasix 80 mg p.o. q day, Zocor 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., insulin 70/30 65 units q a.m., insulin 70/30 45 units q p.m., Toprol XL 50 mg p.o. q day, Levaquin 250 mg p.o. q day for a duration of 7 days, and Actos 45 mg p.o. q p.m. He was in stable condition on discharge. | Is there history of use of avapro | {

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

Ms. Fought is a 50-year-old female with a history of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, obstructive sleep apnea, hypertension, and diabetes who presented with right knee swelling, redness, and pain and was admitted to the Emergency Department. 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. | Has this patient ever been prescribed levofloxacin | {

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. | What are the different medications that have been used on this patient for nonsustained ventricular tachycardia | {

Mrs. Denman is a 63-year-old, insulin-dependent diabetic with a long history of peripheral vascular disease and multiple surgical procedures. She underwent a right transmetatarsal amputation in 1990 and subsequently underwent a right femoral distal saphenous vein bypass graft in 1991 which was later revised in 1992. In July of this year, she underwent a left superficial femoral artery to anterior tibial artery bypass using non-reversed basilic vein harvested from the right arm and had a large great toe ulcer, possibly attributed to hammertoe, which subsequently underwent a left great toe amputation. On the day prior to admission she was exercising with 4 pound weights on her legs with the physical therapist when she described a cool sensation in her foot and reported that her foot had been blue, and there were no Dopplerable pulses. Admission labs were unremarkable and she was placed on intravenous Heparin until the following morning. During Angiography Suite she was found to have two 95% stenosis in a long segment of the left SFA and the left distal SFA and anterior tibial vein graft was completely thrombosed. She was successfully treated with stent placement and received heparin and urokinase in the Intensive Care Unit overnight with a turn-over pulses of the left leg Doppler. During the remainder of the hospital course, her left foot remained pink and warm with an infection of exposed bone. She was discharged with Vancomycin 1250 mg IV q d, Ofloxacin 200 mg p.o. b.i.d., Coumadin with target INR of 2.0, last target 1.6, then received 10 mg in evening x 2., Percocet 1-2 tablets p.o. q 4 prn, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., insulin NPH 10 units subcu b.i.d., sliding scale insulin subcu q 4, Isordil 30 mg t.i.d., Zestril 5 mg q d, Lopressor 50 mg b.i.d., Axid 150 mg p.o. b.i.d. and was advised to follow up with Dr. Noah in one to two weeks. | Has this patient ever been treated with insulin lente | {
