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. | Why was nitroglycerin prescribed | {

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

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. | What is the dosage of the medication the patient was prescribed for uti. | {

The patient was discharged in stable condition, tolerating stage II diet well, ambulating, voiding independently, and with adequate pain control. The patient was given explicit instructions to follow-up in clinic with Dr. Truglia in 1-2 weeks and sent home with VNA for wound checks and close sugar control with instructions to f/u with Leland Bredeson by phone and record fingersticks, and to f/u with her PCP if she has further problems with urination. The patient was also instructed to shower but not bathe, swim or otherwise immerse her incision, not to lift anything heavier than a phone book, not to drive or drink alcohol while taking narcotic pain medication, and to resume all of her home medications, and to call her doctor or go to the nearest emergency room if she has fevers > 101.5 F, vomiting, or increased redness, swelling, or discharge from her incision. | Has the pt. ever been on levaquin ( levofloxacin ) before | {

The patient was admitted on 5/5/2006 with a history of mechanical fall, with the attending physician being Dr. Clemente Armand Bolstad, with a full code status and disposition of Rehabilitation. 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.

Mr. Sherburn is a 58 yo man with a history of Hodgkins lymphoma who underwent radiation therapy, hypertension, and non-Q wave MI and was admitted to LMC for cardiac catheterization and observation s/p cath. During the procedure, a chronic total occlusion of the proximal L.circumflex artery with collaterals to distal vessels was observed, as well as an RCA ostial discrete 45% lesion. Mr. Muthart tolerated the procedure well without adverse event or complication at the groin site, remaining afebrile, with stable electrolytes, hematocrit and WBC. EKG was without evidence of acute ischemia and cardiac enzymes remained flat, with his SBP running in the 90's to low 100's and his Lisinopril was decreased as a result. Imdur was also added to his cardiac regimen. The discharge medications were ALBUTEROL INHALER 2 PUFF INH QID PRN SOB, ECASA ( ASPIRIN ENTERIC COATED ) 325 MG PO QD, ATENOLOL 50 MG PO QD Food/Drug Interaction Instruction, LISINOPRIL 5 MG PO QD, NITROGLYCERIN 1/150 ( 0.4 MG ) 1 TAB SL Q5 MIN X 3 PRN Chest Pain HOLD IF: SBP<[ ], TERBUTALINE ( TERBUTALINE SULFATE ) 5 MG PO QID, AZMACORT ( TRIAMCINOLONE ACETONIDE ) 2 PUFF INH QID, KEFLEX ( CEPHALEXIN ) 500 MG PO QID, and IMDUR ( ISOSORBIDE MONONIT.( SR ) ) 30 MG PO QD Food/Drug Interaction Instruction.

The patient had been taking Ativan of 3-4 mg q.d. for anxiety for the past two months and abruptly stopped taking it on March 1995 after which she started to have feelings of disorientation, and had been taking chloral hydrate 500 to 1000 mg q.h.s. for five days and Compazine with one dose. CURRENT MEDICATIONS: At home, patient took insulin NPH 25 units in the morning with Regular 10 units in the morning, aspirin 81 mg q.d., Lopressor 25 mg b.i.d., Compazine 5 mg q.6h. p.r.n. anxiety of which she took only one dose, and chloral hydrate 500 to 1000 mg q.h.s. for five days. On admission, her laboratory examination was significant for BUN of 17, creatinine of 1.0, glucose was 364, liver function tests were within normal limits, white count was 7.2, hematocrit was 36, and platelet count was 266. Neurology consultation was obtained who felt that patient's peripheral neuropathy was probably secondary to longstanding diabetes but felt that some of her symptomatology could be consistent with porphyria. Psychiatry felt that this episode was consistent with generalized anxiety disorder separated by post dysthymia and suggested phenothiazines which are proven to be safe in porphyria for treatment. She was started on Trilafon 2 to 4 mg p.o. p.r.n. q.6h. for anxiety and Keflex 500 mg p.o. t.i.d. for treatment. The patient was also seen to be orthostatic which was felt to be secondary to dehydration secondary to poor p.o. intake prior to admission and was treated with normal saline boluses and her orthostasis improved. Her Lopressor was also held with this episode of orthostasis. The Watson-Schwartz test done by Dr. Mohar on patient very early in the admission was negative which made an acute porphyria attack very unlikely. These episodes were felt to be secondary to a combination of anxiety attack and rapid taper of Ativan which she had been taking at moderately high doses for the last two months. Patient also developed urinary tract infection symptoms and her urine culture showed greater than 100,000 colonies of E. coli which were pansensitive. She was discharged to home on August in good condition on medications Aspirin 81 mg p.o. q.d., insulin NPH 25 units subcutaneously q.a.m., insulin regular 10 units subcutaneously q.a.m., Trilafon 2 mg p.o. q.6h., and Keflex 500 mg p.o. t.i.d.

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

Ms. Christin is an 80-year-old female who presented to an outside hospital with chest pain and shortness of breath. She took one sublingual Nitroglycerin without relief, followed by two more without relief and was then treated with intravenous Lasix, morphine, and Nitroglycerin which resulted in resolution of her pain. Her medical history includes hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, angina, Paget's disease, anemia, and osteoarthritis. An EKG at the hospital showed anterolateral ST depression and her enzymes were negative, ruling out myocardial infarction. Her cardiac symptomatology began in the fall of 1999 and evaluation showed high cholesterol with an LDL 141, EKG with LVH and nonspecific T wave flattening, and a Thallium stress test that was stopped secondary to shortness of breath. Upon admission to Ster Hospital for evaluation of her angina, her laboratory values were consistent with a myocardial infarction and her peak CK was 459 with an MB of 28.7. Her discharge medications include Aspirin 81 mg daily, iron 300 mg three times a day, Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg daily, Lisinopril 5 mg daily, multivitamin one daily, Relafen 500 mg orally a day, Imdur 60 mg orally a day, Plavix 75 mg daily for 29 days, Lipitor 40 mg daily, Atenolol 25 mg orally a day, and magnesium oxide 420 mg daily.

Mr. Gramby is a 43-year-old man with morbid obesity, type II diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic renal insufficiency, and severe peripheral arterial disease status post femoral popliteal bypass in July which was complicated by repeated return of cellulitis x 2 who was admitted with cellulitis and volume overload. He was initially treated with courses of intravenous nafcillin and vancomycin for four weeks, having been seen by Vascular Surgery five days prior to admission and had been started on dicloxacillin for a third episode of cellulitis. He had also presented with fluid overload and spironolactone was added to his diuretic regimen. The patient was prescribed Atenolol 100 mg q.d., spironolactone, torsemide 160 mg b.i.d., Hyzaar 50/12.5 q. day, lisinopril 60 mg q. day, Neurontin 1200 mg t.i.d., Norvasc 10 mg q.a.m. and 5 mg q.p.m., Coumadin 8 mg, aspirin, Humalog sliding scale, Percocet, Pletal 100 mg b.i.d., Procrit, Zantac, nitroglycerin p.r.n., and NPH 80 q.a.m. and q.p.m. His torsemide was changed to IV and metolazone was added on the first day of admission and his electrolytes were replaced as needed. He was hypertensive on arrival, which was treated with Hydralazine initially and transitioned to his p.o. home medicines, with Hydralazine p.o. added on hospital day #9 to lower his systolic blood pressure to the range of the 120s-130s. His Coumadin was restarted when his INR was 2.2 and he his now in the therapeutic range and will need to be followed. The patient is on NPH and Humalog, with NPH doses increased to 90 units in the morning and 85 units at night, and the goal for this patient is below 150 particularly given the need for wound healing. Additional antibiotic coverage was added specifically of fluoroquinolone for anti-psuedomonal coverage for his diabetic foot ulcers, with surgical debridement done in the operating room with drainage of pus, but the metal showed could not be located even with fluoroscopy. The patient will complete a 14-day course of levofloxacin and clindamycin for these foot ulcers, and will be discharged home with visiting nursing care for b.i.d. wet-to-dry dressing changes. He will follow up with Jerold Cristopher Blazon, M.D. in one to two weeks, go home with visiting nurse care, and will need to see his nephrologist, vascular surgeons, primary care provider, and Bariatric Surgery following discharge. | Has this patient ever been on electrolytes | {

The patient is a 58-year-old female with chronic renal insufficiency, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and anemia who presented with two weeks of diffuse abdominal pain that acutely worsened one day prior to admission with associated nausea, nonbloody emesis, and chills. She was initially given a seven-day course of ciprofloxacin and oxycodone for pain, but stopped taking them after developing constipation. She currently presents with complaints of diarrhea and was given ampicillin 2 g IV, gentamicin 80 mg IV, Flagyl 500 mg IV and 8 units of insulin. She was put on levofloxacin, vancomycin, and Flagyl as her left foot had been encasted with evidence of underlying infection, and her blood cultures grew MRSA, which is presumed to need eight weeks of vancomycin. She was put on erythromycin with a change to Reglan on 8/6/06 per renal or liver disease and kept on Compazine for nausea. Later, it was determined that the patient was iron deficient and she was put on iron supplementation and darbepoetin initially and changed to erythropoietin later during dialysis. She was maintained on aspirin, a statin, and calcium channel blocker, and started on prophylactic beta-blocker during her hospital course. Her insulin regimen was titrated to good glycemic response, and she was kept on heparin and Nexium. Other medications included Tylenol 650 mg p.o. q.4. p.r.n. headache, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Dilaudid 0.4-0.8 mg p.o. q.4. p.r.n. pain, Insulin NPH human 20 units subq b.i.d., Lopressor 50 mg p.o. q.i.d., Senna tablets two tabs p.o. b.i.d., Norvasc 10 mg p.o. daily, Nephrocaps one tab p.o. daily, Insulin Aspart sliding scale subq a.c., Lipitor 80 mg p.o. daily, Protonix 40 mg p.o. daily, Vancomycin 1 g IV three times a week, Reglan 5 mg p.o. q.a.c., Reglan 5 mg p.o. q.h.s., Compazine 5-10 mg p.o. q.6h. p.r.n. nausea, Ergocalciferol 50,000 units p.o. q. week for six weeks, Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily, Heparin 5000 units subq t.i.d., and Lactulose 30 mL p.o. q.i.d. p.r.n. constipation. | Is there history of use of flagyl | {

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

This 66 year old African American woman presented with an acute stroke and was brought in by her daughter. She had a CTA done which showed questionable luminal narrowing of the distal left middle cerebral artery, and was given a 9 mg bolus dose of intravenous TPA over two minutes and 81 mg given over the following hour. Her past medical history includes diet controlled diabetes, obesity, hypertension, ulcerative colitis, a prior MI in 1988, and a possible old stroke. Her medications are aspirin 325 mg and Asacol, although she was unsure of the dose. Blood pressure was 138/76, heart rate was 80 and paced, and she had a right field compromise difficulty crossing the midline with a right upper motor neuron seventh weakness and decreased power on the right side of the face. After the TPA, her language returned completely to normal. Protocol for the stroke was followed, including blood pressure monitoring, nasal oxygen, and no antiplatelet therapy for 24 hours. Head of bed was raised to 30 degrees and a head CT was repeated the following morning. An echocardiogram showed normal ventricular size and systolic function, trace aortic insufficiency, trace mitral regurgitation, and persistent atrial flutter. She was coumadinized and discharged without rehabilitation on 0/21/99 on Coumadin with a plan for complete cardioversion within one month. | Has this patient ever been on oxygen | {

He was on his beta-blocker and anticoagulated on Coumadin with an INR goal of 2.5, initially being supertherapeutic with a daily goal of negative 500 to 1 L with IV Lasix once or twice a day as needed, his home dose being 160 mg p.o. His baseline room air oxygen saturation was 90-93% and he should use oxygen as treatment for his pulmonary hypertension and be provided with oxygen at home. He was treated for his hip pain initially with oxycodone which was changed to Dilaudid for better pain control, and he should be changed back to his home dose of oxycodone when discharged. He also has a history of gout which was exacerbated with diuresis and he is on his home doses of allopurinol and colchicine, Indocin being added and he should receive a total of three days of Indocin. Tylenol and narcotics as previously described can be used to help with his gouty pain. His GI regimen includes Nexium at home and Prilosec while an inpatient, and he should be switched back to Nexium when discharged from rehabilitation. His lab results on discharge include a creatinine of 1, hematocrit of 53.1 and INR of 2.3, potassium being 3.9 and magnesium being 2.0. The discharge medications include Coumadin 11 mg on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and 12 mg the other days of the week, Diovan 320 a day, multivitamin 1 tab daily, Toprol-XL 50 once a day, nifedipine extended release 30 once a day, Revatio 20 mg 3 times a day, hydrochlorothiazide 25 once a day, Lasix 160 IV once per day, allopurinol 200 once per day, colchicine 0.6 once per day, Colace, Prilosec 20 once a day, Dilaudid 2 mg q.4 h. p.o. p.r.n. pain, Tylenol 500-1000 mg p.o. q.6 h. p.r.n. pain not to exceed 4 gm total from all sources in a 24-hour period, Ambien 10 mg p.o. nightly p.r.n. insomnia.

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

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.

Mr. Gramby is a 43-year-old man with morbid obesity, type II diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic renal insufficiency, and severe peripheral arterial disease status post femoral popliteal bypass in July which was complicated by repeated return of cellulitis x 2 who was admitted with cellulitis and volume overload. He was initially treated with courses of intravenous nafcillin and vancomycin for four weeks, having been seen by Vascular Surgery five days prior to admission and had been started on dicloxacillin for a third episode of cellulitis. He had also presented with fluid overload and spironolactone was added to his diuretic regimen. The patient was prescribed Atenolol 100 mg q.d., spironolactone, torsemide 160 mg b.i.d., Hyzaar 50/12.5 q. day, lisinopril 60 mg q. day, Neurontin 1200 mg t.i.d., Norvasc 10 mg q.a.m. and 5 mg q.p.m., Coumadin 8 mg, aspirin, Humalog sliding scale, Percocet, Pletal 100 mg b.i.d., Procrit, Zantac, nitroglycerin p.r.n., and NPH 80 q.a.m. and q.p.m. His torsemide was changed to IV and metolazone was added on the first day of admission and his electrolytes were replaced as needed. He was hypertensive on arrival, which was treated with Hydralazine initially and transitioned to his p.o. home medicines, with Hydralazine p.o. added on hospital day #9 to lower his systolic blood pressure to the range of the 120s-130s. His Coumadin was restarted when his INR was 2.2 and he his now in the therapeutic range and will need to be followed. The patient is on NPH and Humalog, with NPH doses increased to 90 units in the morning and 85 units at night, and the goal for this patient is below 150 particularly given the need for wound healing. Additional antibiotic coverage was added specifically of fluoroquinolone for anti-psuedomonal coverage for his diabetic foot ulcers, with surgical debridement done in the operating room with drainage of pus, but the metal showed could not be located even with fluoroscopy. The patient will complete a 14-day course of levofloxacin and clindamycin for these foot ulcers, and will be discharged home with visiting nursing care for b.i.d. wet-to-dry dressing changes. He will follow up with Jerold Cristopher Blazon, M.D. in one to two weeks, go home with visiting nurse care, and will need to see his nephrologist, vascular surgeons, primary care provider, and Bariatric Surgery following discharge. | Has this patient ever tried norvasc | {

The patient is a 57 year-old female with dilated cardiomyopathy who is admitted for transplant evaluation. She initially presented with substernal chest pain in 1991, which was thought to be a myocardial infarction and Streptokinase was given; however details are not known. An echocardiogram showed an ejection fraction of 35-40% with evidence of an anteroseptal myocardial infarction, and an ETT Thallium showed fixed anteroseptal and apical defects. Upon admission, her ejection fraction was 15%, and a bicycle test achieved 5 minutes and 33 seconds with a maximal heart rate of 108 and a VO2 of 6.4 ml per kg per minute. Her past medical history is significant for 1) History of bronchitis, 2) History of cardiomyopathy, 3) Non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, 4) Status post hysterectomy at age 40, 5) Status post cholecystectomy, 6) Status post appendectomy, 7) History of panic disorders, 8) History of agoraphobia, and 9) History of alcohol use. Medication on admission included Coumadin 2.5 mg p.o. four times a week and 5 mg p.o. three times a week, Digoxin 0.125 mg p.o. q. day, Enalapril 10 mg p.o. b.i.d., Micronase 2.5 mg p.o. q. day, Multivitamins one tablet p.o. q. day, Lasix 40 mg p.o. b.i.d., and Xanax 0.5 mg p.o. q.i.d. p.r.n. The patient was briefly transferred to the Coronary Care Unit secondary to her elevated pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and the presence of her Swan-Ganz catheter, and was diuresed with good response. As part of the patient's transplant evaluation, she had a PPD with controls placed which showed that her PPD was negative and her controls were positive, and she underwent a Dental consult as well as a Psychiatric consult, and Thyrology showed a cytomegalovirus IgG being positive, a cytomegalovirus IgM being equivocal, and Epstein-Barr virus anti-VCA IgG at 640, an Epstein-Barr virus anti-VCA IgM being less than 10 and a mucal screen being greater than or equal to 32, a varicella zoster titer of 512, a Toxoplasma IgG being positive, and a Toxoplasma IgM being negative. Abdominal ultrasound showed a mildly dilated common bile and pancreatic duct and showed that this patient was status post cholecystectomy. Medication on discharge included Tylenol 650 mg p.o. q.4h. p.r.n. headache, Xanax 0.5 mg p.o. q.i.d., Digoxin 0.125 mg p.o. q. day, Enalapril 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. b.i.d., Micronase 1.25 mg p.o. q. day, Multivitamins one tablet p.o. q. day, and Coumadin 2.5 mg p.o. q. day on even days and 5 mg p.o. q. day on odd days. The patient was instructed that she should increase her diuresis at home if she noticed an increase in her weight and was instructed to see a physician for continued for weight increases due to fluid accumulation. The patient had no known drug allergies and had been on Heparin during this hospitalization, and she did experience some hematuria toward the end of her hospitalization which was felt to be secondary to Foley trauma while she was in the Coronary Care Unit. While the patient maybe a good transplant candidate, it was felt that her weight was a negative factor in her potential for transplant. | Has the patient had heparin in the past | {

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 medications has the patient ever tried for substernal chest pain prevention | {

This is a 47-year-old female with a history of HIV, diabetes, questionable cerebral aneurysm, and seizure disorder who recently had two syncopal events without prodrome and without postictal state, who presented for evaluation of left arm paresthesias and chest pain, with associated diaphoresis, shortness of breath and nausea. Of note, the patient recently started Flexeril to treat chronic low back pain, was not receiving her Keppra for approximately a year, as her prescription had ran out, and was instead taking Ecotrin 81 mg daily, clonazepam 1 mg q.6 h. p.r.n., Imodium one to two tablets q.i.d. p.r.n. for diarrhea, and low-dose aspirin. The patient was started on low-dose beta-blocker and aspirin, metoprolol 12.5 b.i.d. with occasional bradycardia to the high 40's, and was treated with the Ryo Hospital Medical Center insulin protocol. The patient was restarted on Keppra 250 mg b.i.d. with a goal to increase to 500 mg b.i.d. after 7 days and to 750 mg after another week, and was given Keppra 500 mg b.i.d. for 14 doses and then 750 mg b.i.d., Flexeril 5 mg daily, clonazepam 1 mg q.i.d., Truvada one tablet p.o. daily, Norvir 1400 mg b.i.d., glyburide 5 mg q.a.m. and 2.5 mg q.p.m., Lomotil one tablet q.i.d. p.r.n., methadone 150 mg daily, Zofran 4 mg daily p.r.n., Percocet 325 mg/5 mg tablets one tablet q.6 h. p.r.n., Zantac 150 mg b.i.d., Zoloft 100 mg q.a.m., and trazodone 100 mg nightly. Labs revealed a low reticulocyte index consistent with anemia of chronic disease, and the methadone dose of 155 mg was confirmed with the outpatient clinic. The patient was also given three doses of Klonopin over a six-day period, instructed to take medications as listed, clarify discrepancies with her PCP, return to the ER for evaluation if she faints again, call her PCP and/or return to the ER if her chest pain symptoms recur and persist, make an appointment with the Smill Memorial Hospital to evaluate the cause of her left arm symptoms, and check her blood sugars before meals and at bedtime. Additionally, her PCP was instructed to arrange for a loop monitor, follow up on a 24-hour urine studies assessing for pheochromocytoma, and adjust the patient's diabetes management as needed. | Has this patient ever been on clonazepam | {

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. Gramby is a 43-year-old man with morbid obesity, type II diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic renal insufficiency, and severe peripheral arterial disease status post femoral popliteal bypass in July which was complicated by repeated return of cellulitis x 2 who was admitted with cellulitis and volume overload. He was initially treated with courses of intravenous nafcillin and vancomycin for four weeks, having been seen by Vascular Surgery five days prior to admission and had been started on dicloxacillin for a third episode of cellulitis. He had also presented with fluid overload and spironolactone was added to his diuretic regimen. The patient was prescribed Atenolol 100 mg q.d., spironolactone, torsemide 160 mg b.i.d., Hyzaar 50/12.5 q. day, lisinopril 60 mg q. day, Neurontin 1200 mg t.i.d., Norvasc 10 mg q.a.m. and 5 mg q.p.m., Coumadin 8 mg, aspirin, Humalog sliding scale, Percocet, Pletal 100 mg b.i.d., Procrit, Zantac, nitroglycerin p.r.n., and NPH 80 q.a.m. and q.p.m. His torsemide was changed to IV and metolazone was added on the first day of admission and his electrolytes were replaced as needed. He was hypertensive on arrival, which was treated with Hydralazine initially and transitioned to his p.o. home medicines, with Hydralazine p.o. added on hospital day #9 to lower his systolic blood pressure to the range of the 120s-130s. His Coumadin was restarted when his INR was 2.2 and he his now in the therapeutic range and will need to be followed. The patient is on NPH and Humalog, with NPH doses increased to 90 units in the morning and 85 units at night, and the goal for this patient is below 150 particularly given the need for wound healing. Additional antibiotic coverage was added specifically of fluoroquinolone for anti-psuedomonal coverage for his diabetic foot ulcers, with surgical debridement done in the operating room with drainage of pus, but the metal showed could not be located even with fluoroscopy. The patient will complete a 14-day course of levofloxacin and clindamycin for these foot ulcers, and will be discharged home with visiting nursing care for b.i.d. wet-to-dry dressing changes. He will follow up with Jerold Cristopher Blazon, M.D. in one to two weeks, go home with visiting nurse care, and will need to see his nephrologist, vascular surgeons, primary care provider, and Bariatric Surgery following discharge. | What medicines have previously been tried for fluid overload | {

On admission, the patient had a blood pressure of 230/90 and was treated with IV Lopressor and Diltiazem drip at 10 mg/hr. The patient underwent cardiac catheterization on 2/25/99, revealing stent restenosis of left circumflex artery, a 60 percent left anterior descending artery stenosis, a 70 percent diagonal ostial stenosis, a 40 percent ostial right coronary artery stenosis, and 95 percent ostial posterior descending artery stenosis. The patient was admitted for rule out myocardial infarction and subsequently underwent a coronary artery bypass graft times three with a left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending artery and saphenous vein graft to obtuse marginal and saphenous vein graft to posterior descending artery. Postoperatively, the patient was treated with IV Lopressor and Diltiazem drip at 10 mg/hr. for a period of atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response and rates in the 150s. The patient was started on MEDICATIONS including Aspirin 325 mg q.d., Atenolol 125 mg p.o. b.i.d., Captopril 100 mg p.o. t.i.d., Colace, Axid 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Amlodipine 10 mg p.o. q.d., Imdur 120 mg p.o. b.i.d., and insulin NPH 22 units q.a.m. and regular 10 units q.a.m., and anticoagulation with Coumadin. The patient subsequently converted spontaneously to normal sinus rhythm and was started back on Amlodipine for further blood pressure control and was started on Lopressor and Captopril and gradually increased to preoperative doses. The patient continued to experience brief episodes of atrial fibrillation with spontaneous conversion to normal sinus rhythm.

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.

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

At the time of admission, the 73-year-old patient presented with altered mental status, intractable explosive diarrhea, congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, myelodysplastic syndrome, peripheral vascular disease, gastrointestinal bleed, prostate cancer, and macular degeneration. His current medications included Opium Tincture, Aspirin, Lomotil, Lasix, Ditropan, Lopid, Zocor, Atapryl, and Iron. His physical examination was notable for a jugular venous pressure at 5 cm, moist mucous membranes, and soft, nontender, nondistended abdominal examination. His mental status improved quickly with respiratory status significantly with occasional nebulizer treatments of Albuterol and Atrovent. His losartan was held at admission due to acute renal failure, but other outpatient medications were continued. At the time of admission, Kaopectate and Lomotil were started for the guaiac positive brown stool. Chest x-ray was clear, and it was felt that the most likely etiology of his acute worsening of his diarrhea was viral gastroenteritis. He received a 7-day course of Levofloxacin and Flagyl for empiric abdominal coverage and remained afebrile since the time of his antibiotics. An MRI showed proximal disease in the SMA, IMA, and Celiac but overall with good distal flow, and an abdominal CT showed a thick small bowel and dilated gallbladder with stranding. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed Grade IV Gastritis, and the patient was started on Nexium 40 b.i.d. His BUN was in the fifties with a creatinine of 2.2 throughout the hospitalization, and he was discharged on a full p.o. diet and instructed to supplement his diet with high nutrition Boost shakes. At the time of discharge, the patient was oxygenating well with no evidence of fluid overload or infiltrates. Occasional wheezes were noted and he will follow-up with Dr. Venzor following discharge. | Was the patient ever prescribed iron | {

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. | What medication has the patient take for non-q wave mi. | {

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

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 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. | Why did the patient have tpn | {

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

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.

This 60-year-old male presented with a two week history of paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea and dyspnea on exertion, possibly related to stress from the recent death of the patient's sister-in-law. His past medical history was significant for hypertension of approximately 10 years, non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus of approximately 12 years, left Bell's palsy in 1985 treated with prednisone, and type IV hypolipoproteinemia. An EKG showed new anterolateral changes since the EKG taken a year earlier, and he was admitted with a diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction, Congestive Heart Failure, and Hypertension. His medications included Micronase 10 mg po bid, Persantine 60 mg po tid, aspirin one po q d, Lisinopril 5 mg po q d, and Atenolol 50 mg po q d. He had a 20 pack year history of smoking and social ethanol consumption. The patient was managed with gentle Lasix diuresis and the beta blocker was held due to concern for wall motion abnormalities.
