A 54M with a history of CHF admitted with chest pain and troponin elevation likely due to a hypertensive emergency was found to have a 100% RCA lesion but well collateralized and no other CAD at cardiac catheterization. Keys to management were aggressive BP control with medications, low salt diet, and weight loss; cont ASA, statin, and Lasix 160 in AM, 120 in PM for volume control. Troponin trended down and the patient remained asymptomatic in house. The patient was monitored on tele with no events. The patient was also given Mucomyst, DM on diet control, and Hba1c pending. The patient was also found to have a history of OSA on CPAP which was likely contributing to pulmonary hypertension given the HCT 55. CPAP and weight loss were encouraged. The patient was discharged on Acetylsalicylic Acid 81 MG PO QD, Lasix (Furosemide) 160 MG QAM; 120 MG QPM PO 160 MG QAM, Lisinopril 80 MG PO QD, MVI Therapeutic (Therapeutic Multivitamins) 1 TAB PO QD, Norvasc (Amlodipine) 10 MG PO QD, Toprol XL (Metoprolol (Sust.

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. | severe copd meds on in past | {

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

Her medications include Acetylsalicylic Acid 81mg PO daily, Calcium Carbonate 1,500mg (600mg elem Ca)/Vit D 200 IU 1 tab PO bid, Calcitriol 0.5mcg PO daily, Phoslo (Calcium Acetate 1 GELCAP=667 mg) 1,334mg PO tid, Nexium (Esomeprazole) 40mg PO daily, Lasix (Furosemide) 40mg PO daily, Toprol XL (Metoprolol Succinate Extended Release) 25mg PO daily Food/Drug Interaction Instruction, Nephrocaps (Nephro-Vit RX) 1 TAB PO daily, and Simvastatin 10mg PO bedtime. Her diet is a House diet and she needs nutritional supplements/boost. She was discussed two options for management, casting with a patellar tendon bearing cast or surgery, and the patient declined surgery due to her high risk surgical status. She will follow-up in the Orthopedics clinic on Wednesday for casting. Her chronic kidney disease and electrolyte abnormalities have been monitored and her TSH was recently elevated and T3/T4 are pending at discharge. She has a history of diabetes but does not require insulin and has a normal A1C. Her EF is 30% and she was not in CHF on admission. She has been instructed to take her medications with meals or on an empty stomach, and to avoid grapefruit unless MD instructs otherwise. A screen for assisted living, PT consult, and SW consult were also ordered. She is DNR/DNI and her daughter will discuss her status further with her tomorrow. She has been advised to follow-up with her primary provider in 1-2 weeks after discharge and to monitor renal function and lytes.

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

Mr. Lumadue is a 68-year-old man with significant cardiac history and vascular disease who came in with a chief complaint of hip pain after a mechanical fall. At that time, his hospital course was complicated by a non-Q wave MI, and Cardiology recommended medical management with Lopressor. An echocardiogram revealed an ejection fraction of 45%, and Dobutamine MIBI revealed a severe fixed perfusion defect in the inferoposterior and inferoseptal left ventricle with an ejection fraction of 26%. His medications included HCTZ 50 mg PO q.d., enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg PO q.d., Zestril 20 mg PO q.d., glyburide 5 mg PO q.d., multivitamins, and cough medicine PRN. Upon admission, his vital signs were afebrile, temperature 97.3, tachycardia, heart rate 106, blood pressure 162/77, oxygenation 94% on room air. X-rays of his left pelvis and femur revealed fracture of the left intertrochanter and subtrochanteric fracture with lesser trochanteric fracture intact by 3 cm, less than five degrees angulation. His femoral head was reduced. During his hospital course, the patient was started on a beta blocker, Ace inhibitor, and continued on an aspirin. He was aggressively diuresed with Lasix for diuresis and was treated with vancomycin, Flagyl, and levofloxacin for presumed aspiration pneumonia. He was continued on Lovenox 60 mg subcu. b.i.d. for prophylaxis against DVT post-hip surgery to continue for six months minimal followed by orthopedic surgery, and restarted on oral hypoglycemics prior to discharge in addition to sliding scale insulin. He was discharged on standing 20 mEq of K-Dur q.d., lisinopril 5 mg PO q.d., hold for systolic blood pressure less than 100, Lasix 100 mg PO q.d., Lovenox 60 mg subcu. b.i.d. x6 months, glipizide 2.5 mg PO q.d., sliding scale insulin, Nexium 20 mg PO q.d., Silvadene wet-to-dry dressing, DuoDerm to left lower leg wound and change q.3 days, and Lopressor 12.5 mg PO t.i.d., hold for systolic blood pressure less than 100. He was maintained on Nexium prophylaxis in the setting of his anticoagulation and on two liters of nasal cannula oxygen at the time of transfer to rehab. Upon discharge, he was instructed to follow up with his primary care physician, orthopedic surgery, cardiology, and pulmonary medicine within two weeks, with labs for a metabolic panel, magnesium, and calcium q.o.d. and physical therapy as needed, with a weightbearing status of non-weightbearing on the left lower extremity and weightbearing as tolerated on the right lower extremity. | Why was levofloxacin prescribed | {

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 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 does the patient take nexium for | {

The patient is a 61-year-old man with a history of ischemic cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure, who was initially treated with afterload reduction, digoxin and Lasix. A PA line was placed with RA 8, RV 76/4, TA 80/36, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure 34, and cardiac index 1.49. He was then treated with dobutamine, intravenous TNG, and nitroprusside with symptomatic relief and hemodynamic stabilization with wedge pressure falling to 18. TNG and Nipride were successfully weaned, however, the patient remained dobutamine dependent. One week prior to transfer, the patient was admitted to Ment Hospital for management of his congestive heart failure and grew gram positive cocci from two blood cultures. He was then started on vancomycin and defervesced, and subsequently grew gram negative rods in one out of four blood culture specimens. These were gram negative enteric rods, pan-sensitive, for which the patient was started on ampicillin 2 gm IV q. 6. At the time of discharge, the patient was stable, dobutamine dependent, without chest pain, able to ambulate from chair to commode without shortness of breath, palpitations, or light-headedness.

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.

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 | Has the patient taken medication for pneumonia | {

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

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 treatments has patient been on for hypotension in the past | {

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.

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. | Previous potassium chloride | {

Mrs. Wetterauer is a 54-year-old female with coronary artery disease status post inferior myocardial infarction in March of 1997, with sick sinus syndrome, status post permanent pacemaker placement, and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation controlled with amiodarone; also with history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension. On 1/11, she experienced severe respiratory distress and was unable to be intubated on the field. She was ultimately intubated at Sirose, and an echocardiogram showed an ejection fraction of 25 to 30 percent with flat CKs. She was diuresed six liters and a right heart catheterization showed a pulmonary artery pressure of 40/15, wedge of 12, and cardiac output of 5.2. Hemodynamics indicated her cardiac output was dependent on her SVR.

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 this patient ever been treated with adenosine-mibi | {

Mr. Legions is a 54 year old professor who presented to Menjack Hospital Medical Center with recurrent substernal chest pain one day after coronary artery bypass graft (5 vessel bypass) 8 years ago. His coronary risk factors include a positive family history and a previous diagnosis of hyperlipidemia. He was given Lovastatin 40 mg q q.m. and 20 mg q p.m., as well as enteric-coated aspirin one tablet q day. At Skaggssin Hospital, he was given IV nitroglycerin, IV heparin, Nifedipine SL, and morphine, in addition to aspirin and Lovastatin. The patient's pain was relieved with four sublingual nitroglycerin and an EKG demonstrated one sublingual nitroglycerin and these EKG changes resolved. He was treated symptomatically with Tylenol and started on Biaxin 500 mg po bid, and also received a five day course of oral Biaxin with Cholestyramine one packet po q hs, Lopressor 50 mg po tid, and Sublingual nitroglycerin 1/150 tablets to be taken prn. The patient had episodes of fever, achieving a maximum temperature of 101.4, and a chest x-ray on 0/26/95 demonstrated evidence of early congestive heart failure. The patient was treated with daily doses of IV Lasix with resolution of his rales. He was admitted to the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit on IV heparin and nitroglycerine as well as continuation of his aspirin and Lovastatin. His pain was treated with morphine sulfate and relieved with four sublingual nitroglycerin. An EKG demonstrated one sublingual nitroglycerin and these EKG changes resolved. After 24 hours pain-free, the patient was transferred to the Cardiac Step-Down floor and the IV nitroglycerin and IV heparin were discontinued. An echocardiogram demonstrated inferior and posterior hypokinesis with an ejection fraction of approximately 46%, and the patient underwent a submax MIBI to assess coronary perfusion of the heart. The exercise component of this examination demonstrated EKG changes consistent with ischemic coronary flow. Nuclear imaging demonstrated a fixed apical lateral defect in the patient's heart consistent with a healed or healing transmural infarct. The patient also complained of progressive anterior and lateral thigh pain, symptoms consistent with an upper respiratory viral infection, and rales 4 to 5 cm above the bases bilaterally. He was discharged to home with followup in MERH under Drs. Dwayne Ariel Bremme with the medications Enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg po q day, Cholestyramine one packet po q hs, Lovastatin 20 mg po q hs, Lopressor 50 mg po tid, and Sublingual nitroglycerin 1/150 tablets to be taken prn with chest pain. | Has the patient had nitroglycerine in the past | {

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.

Medications on Admission included Amiodarone 100 QD, Colace 100 bid, lasix 40mg QD, Glyburide 5mg bid, Plaquenil 200mg bid, Isordil 20mg tid, Lisinopril 20mg QD, Coumadin 5mg 3dys/week, 2.5mg 4dys/week, Norvasc 10mg QD, Neurontin 300mg TID, with APAP prn. 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.

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. | How often does the patient take insulin nph | {

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

Ms. Dube is a 58-year-old female with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and a history of a left circumflex coronary artery stent placed three months prior to admission. She presented to the emergency room with left jaw pain, which was relieved with three sublingual nitroglycerin and later with Percocet to which she got some relief. She was started on Lovenox 1 mg per kg subcutaneously b.i.d., beta-blocker, Zocor and ACE inhibitor, t.i.d., glucophage 500 mg b.i.d., Celexa 40 mg p.o. q.d., Zestril 2.5 mg q.d., atenolol 25 mg p.o. q.d., Lipitor 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., Plavix. The patient's Lovenox was reversed with protamine and her hematoma continued to expand overnight, so she received one unit of fresh frozen plasma as well as a third unit of packed red blood cells, resulting in a total of five units of packed red blood cells due to blood loss secondary to her anticoagulation with Lovenox, Plavix, aspirin and a possible STONDE MEDICAL CENTER trial drug. Her headache was treated with Tylenol to which it did not respond and her discharge medications included aspirin 81 mg p.o. q day, Klonopin 0.5 mg p.o. q.h.s., and her home medications of Zocor, Lopressor, captopril, Celexa, Klonopin. Vascular surgery was consulted due to concern for developing compartment syndrome and she was restarted on aspirin.

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

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 was discharged in stable condition with instructions to monitor BP with uptitration of ACE, take calcium, follow a cardiac and diabetic diet, watch calcium, and take Lovenox and PPI. | Was the patient ever prescribed statin | {

A 59 year-old woman with metastatic breast cancer and a history of pulmonary embolism presented with symptoms of fatigue, lethargy, tachycardia and fever. CXR showed LLL opacity, LUL opacity and hilar fullness on the right with prominent bronchi (?cuffing) and vertebral fractures. She was admitted with bacteremia on 7/0/2006 and treated with whole brain radiotherapy in March 2006 and with weekly Taxol. Restaging studies showed stable visceral disease but progression of bony metastatic disease, so in January 2006, she initiated a second-line Navelbine therapy. At the ER, she was administered 1UPRBC, 1L NS, Levofloxacin 500 mg IV, and placed CVP~20. Her blood pressure systolic initially 120s but decreased to 90s (MAPS>70), and norepinephrine was administered. She was given TYLENOL (ACETAMINOPHEN) 650 MG PO Q6H PRN Pain, Temperature greater than:101, Other:transfusion premedication, ALBUTEROL NEBULIZER 2.5 MG INH Q4H PRN Wheezing, TESSALON PERLES (BENZONATATE) 100 MG PO TID PRN Other:congestion, BENADRYL (DIPHENHYDRAMINE) 12.5 MG PO x1 PRN Other:pre-transfusion, COLACE (DOCUSATE SODIUM) 100 MG PO BID PRN Constipation, ENOXAPARIN 40 MG SC DAILY, NEXIUM (ESOMEPRAZOLE) 40 MG PO DAILY, FLOVENT HFA (FLUTICASONE PROPIONATE) 110 MCG INH BID, INSULIN ASPART Sliding Scale. | What medications has the patient been prescribed for Other:transfusion premedication | {

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 there been a prior toprol-xl | {
