Mary Urbieta, a 56-year-old male with a history of ESRD, CAD, and CHF (EF 20-25%), was admitted to the hospital with Hypotension and NSTEMI. Upon discharge he was placed on a Full Code status, a renal diet (FDI), and walking as tolerated, and was instructed to avoid grapefruit unless MD instructs otherwise. His BP was 66/30 after 5.5 liters were removed, and rose to 73/40 after 1 liter of NS was given. Labs showed WBC 5, TnI 0.37, CK 153, CKMB 8.2, and EKG NSR, 1st deg AVB, LAE, LVH, old TWI in 1, L, V5, V6, more pronounced ST dep in V5 than 6/4, and CXR R pl effusion, CMG. Ischemia was managed with medical management with Asa, Beta Blocker, Imdur, Zocor, NTG PRN, and a PET scan was ordered to assess for viable myocardium and ischemia. The results showed a small region of myocardial scar/hibernation along with mild residual stress induced peri-infarct ischemia in the distal LAD distribution and moderate global LV systolic dysfunction, essentially unchanged from his prior study of February 2003. A BNP was sent and pending, and an echo revealed EF 30% and mod AI. He was placed on Acetysalicylic Acid 325 mg PO QD, Colace (Docusate Sodium) 100 mg PO BID, Enalapril Maleate 10 mg PO BID, NPH Humulin Insulin 2 units QAM; 3 units QPM SC 2 units QAM 3 units QPM, NTG 1/150 (Nitroglycerin 1/150 (0.4 mg)) 1 tab SL q5min x 3 PRN chest pain, Zocor (Simvastatin) 40 mg PO QHS, on order for Nephrocaps PO (ref #12327843), Potentially Serious Interaction Simvastatin & Niacin, Vit.

This 54 year old gentleman presented to the Wickpro Conch Medical Center with an infected left lower leg pressure ulcer with open and gangrenous muscle exposed through the posterior wound. His past medical history is significant for insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, peripheral vascular disease, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, history of atrial fibrillation/flutter, and right sacroiliac joint decubitus ulcer. His physical examination revealed mottled distal extremities, bilateral inspiratory wheezes, and a positive bowel sound. The patient underwent a four vessel coronary artery bypass graft on 6/17/95 and left lower extremity fasciotomy on 11/27/95 and was taken to the Operating Room on 7/25/95 for a preoperative diagnosis of a left lower extremity infected pressure sore. Intraoperatively, the patient was noted to have necrosis of both heads of the gastrocnemius muscle and copious amounts of antibiotic-containing solution was used to irrigate the wound, for which he was started on Ampicillin, Gentamicin, and Flagyl empirically until culture results returned and was taken back on 2/29/95 for a second irrigation and debridement procedure. The patient was placed on Klonopin 1 mg po tid, Tylenol 650 mg p.o. q4h p.r.n. headache, Aspirin 81 mg p.o. qd, Albuterol nebulizer 0.5 cc in 2.5 cc of normal saline q.i.d., Capoten 25 mg p.o. qh, Chloral hydrate 500 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n. insomnia, Clonopin 1 mg p.o. t.i.d., Digoxin 0.375 mg p.o. qd, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Insulin NPH 38 units subcu b.i.d., Milk of Magnesia 30 cc p.o. qd p.r.n. constipation, Multivitamins one capsule p.o. qd, Mycostatin 5 cc p.o. q.i.d., Percocet one or two tabs p.o. q3-4h p.r.n. pain, Metamucil one packet p.o. qd, Azmacort six puffs inhaled b.i.d., Axid 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Ofloxacin 200 mg p.o. b.i.d. x 7 days, and Insulin NPH 38 units in the morning and 38 units at night. The patient was initially ruled out for a myocardial infarction following his first operative procedure and had no episodes of hypotension. He was switched over from Gentamicin to Ofloxacin to continue his antibiotic course and has been followed by the Infectious Disease service, receiving 7 more days of po Ofloxacin as an outpatient.

Mr. Lewter is a 65-year-old gentleman with a history of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and peripheral vascular disease who presented to Tci Prosamp Memorial Hospital on 5/1/06 with unstable angina. EKG revealed sinus tachycardia with a new incomplete left bundle-branch block and downsloping 1-1.5 mm ST depressions in V3 through V6 and 1 mm depression in aVL. Cardiac catheterization revealed an ostial 100% stenosis in the left circumflex coronary artery, a proximal 60% stenosis and a mid 50% stenosis in the left anterior descending coronary artery, a proximal 80% stenosis and a mid 60% stenosis in the right coronary artery, a right dominant circulation, an ejection fraction of 30%, and collateral flow from the second diagonal to the third marginal in the right posterior left ventricular branch to the second marginal, as well as left ventricular hypokinesis and severe inferior and apical. The patient was not heparinized due to the fact that he was on Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease with a therapeutic INR. On 9/18/06, the patient underwent coronary artery bypass graft x3 with left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery, a sequential graft and a vein graft connecting from the aorta to the second obtuse marginal coronary artery and then to the left ventricular branch. He was on medications including Lopressor 37.5 mg b.i.d., aspirin 325 mg daily, Colace 100 mg b.i.d., Pepcid 20 mg IV q.12h., insulin sliding scale, atorvastatin 80 mg daily, glipizide, Avandia, Zestril, metformin, meclizine, lactulose, vitamin C, Protonix, Niaspan, Neurontin, Zincate, and Coumadin for peripheral vascular disease. The patient was started on oral medication of glipizide 5 mg and was covered with a NovoLog sliding scale, was transfused 3 units of packed red blood cells, re-started on Coumadin for his reinsertion, and was started on Flomax 0.4 mg once a day. He had some urinary retention postoperatively and did require Foley catheter placement. He was discharged on Enteric-coated aspirin 81 mg QD, Colace 100 mg b.i.d. while taking Dilaudid, Lasix 40 mg QD x3 doses, glipizide 5 mg daily, Dilaudid 2-4 mg every three hours p.r.n. pain, lisinopril 2.5 mg daily, Niferex 150 mg b.i.d., Toprol-XL 150 mg QD, Lipitor 80 mg daily, Flomax 0.4 mg QD, potassium chloride slow release 10 mEq QD x3 doses with Lasix and Coumadin QD per INR result, and the patient will receive 4 mg of Coumadin this evening for his reinsertion and was instructed to remain on his Flomax until that time. Mr. Jana was discharged to rehab in stable condition and will follow up with his cardiologist Dr. Reuben Duttinger in one week, his heart failure cardiologist Dr. Wilton Durkee on 11/10/06 at 1:30 in the afternoon, and Urology Clinic at the Centsson Medical Center for his urinary retention in one week. | When was the last time that the patient received potassium chloride slow release | {

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. | Is the patient currently or have they ever taken enteric-coated aspirin | {

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.

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

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. | Why was beta-blocker prescribed | {

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 medications have been previously used for the treatment of non-q wave mi. | {

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

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 the patient used nafcillin in the past | {

The patient is a 57 year-old woman followed by Dr. Haggard in the IWAKE HEALTHCARE Clinic for problems related to obesity, depression and poorly controlled hypertension. In March of 1995, she had a palpable indurated area at 12:00 on the right breast and was seen by Dr. Noguchi in the Surgery Clinic and scheduled for a right breast biopsy. She was admitted to the General Medical Service and given more aggressive hypertensive medications including increasing her ACE inhibitor to Lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q. day, discontinuing her Diltiazem and starting on Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg p.o. q. daily and starting Beta blocker Lopressor 25 mg p.o. q.i.d. and increasing as tolerated according to her blood pressure. The right breast abscess was drained without incident and she was started on IV antibiotics which included Ancef 1 gram IV q. 8h. Other notable events in the hospital included a Psychiatry consult who suggested that the patient had a history of major depression and recommended ruling organic brain disease and a polysonography was done for monitoring of sleep apnea and an MMTI for further diagnostic evaluation. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course with her blood pressure remaining moderately elevated and resolution of her symptoms of right breast tenderness. On discharge, she was given Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q. day, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg p.o. q. daily, Lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q. daily, Tylox 1-2 capsules p.o. q. 4-6h. p.r.n. pain, Atenolol 100 mg p.o. q. daily, and Cephradine 100 mg p.o. q.i.d. times five days, with follow-up in the TLET HOSPITAL Clinic with Dr. Mcgowan and in a Hmotmed Dell An Community Hospital Medical Service. | What medications has the patient been prescribed for pain. | {

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.

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

Mr. Neilsen is a 59-year-old morbidly obese man with a history of morbid obesity, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, ejection fraction of 40 percent, obstructive sleep apnea on continuous positive airway pressure, history of cellulitis, and presenting with progressive lower extremity weakness bilaterally and urinary incontinence. On admission, EMG showed decreased recruitment in the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius bilaterally, and he was treated with seven days of Bactrim for resolution of his incontinence and he was not anticoagulated at the moment though Coumadin should be a consideration given his risk of stroke. Two weeks prior to admission he noted some lumbar and sacral pain, nonradiating, worse while moving his right leg, and increasing urinary frequency without burning or urinary incontinence. On the night of admission, while getting up from a chair, his right leg gave out and he fell to the floor without injury or head trauma. His laboratory data on admission showed sodium 140, potassium 4.5, chloride 102, bicarbonate 26, BUN 20, creatinine 0.9, glucose 101, white blood cell count of 9 with 76 polys, 4 bands, hematocrit 37.6 and platelet count of 236, and urinalysis showed 3+ blood and positive leukocyte esterase with 15-20 white blood cells, one plus bacteria and one plus squamous cells. He was started on a trial of Lasix p.o. q day to decrease his peripheral edema to help him with rehabilitation, and he was instructed to apply Nystatin powder for his pannus rash. His medications on discharge included Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q day, Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q a.m., Indomethacin 25 mg p.o. t.i.d. p.r.n. pain, Lisinopril 15 mg p.o. q day, multivitamin one tablet p.o. q day, Bactrim DS one tablet p.o. t.i.d., Tamsulosin 0.4 mg p.o. q day, and Miconazole 2% topical powder b.i.d., and he was discharged to rehabilitation care for leg strengthening in a stable condition. | What is the dosage of tamsulosin | {

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

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.

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

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

A 60 year old Spanish speaking woman with multiple cardiac risk factors and a two to three year history of exertional angina presented complaining of unstable chest pain. Dr. Maximo Bryum in C&O MEDICAL CENTER Clinic initiated an antianginal regimen, however the patient recently stopped taking Aspirin and her symptoms then recurred. The patient was given three sublingual Nitroglycerins after her primary M.D. was called and her pain resolved after approximately 15 minutes. On the 27 of January, 1995, the patient underwent a Dobutamine MIBBE on which she went 6 minutes and 48 seconds reaching a maximal heart rate of 154, a blood pressure of 172/82, with 2 mm ST depressions diffusely and moderate to severe reversible anterior and anteroseptal wall ischemia. Medications on admission included Atenolol 50 mg p.o. q.d., Axid 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Enteric Coated Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., Coumadin 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., Diltiazem 240 mg p.o. q.d., Lisinopril 10 mg p.o. q.d., Lopipd 600 mg p.o. q.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q.d., Insulin NPH 75 units sub-q q.a.m., 50 units q.p.m., Insulin Regular 25 units sub-q q.a.m., Nitroglycerin 1/150th one tablet sublingual q. 5 minutes x 3 p.r.n. chest pain, and Omeprazole 20 mg p.o. q.d. The Cardiology Team was consulted and serial CK, MB and EKG's were done, with Heparin initially started given the possibility that this was unstable angina. The patient's Insulin dosages were adjusted in the manner to keep her blood sugars in the approximately 200 range and she was discharged with medications including Enteric Coated Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q.d., Lopid 600 mg p.o. q.d., Insulin NPH 100 units sub-q q.a.m., 70 units sub-q q.h.s., Insulin Regular 25 units sub-q q.a.m., Lisinopril 10 mg p.o. q.d., Nitroglycerin 1/150th one tablet sublingual q. 5 minutes x 3 p.r.n. chest pain, Omeprazole 20 mg p.o. q.d., Coumadin 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., Diltiazem CD 240 mg p.o. q.d., with follow-up care with her primary M.D., Dr. Jarvis Needy in the RINGBURG RITA'S PROPRES MEMORIAL HOSPITAL Clinic. | Has the patient had multiple insulin , nph prescriptions | {

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 medications has this patient tried for hypotension | {

This 70-year-old female with CHF, coronary artery disease, diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and chronic renal insufficiency was admitted on 0/5/06 for weakness and confusion. Her hospital course was complicated by worsening cardiac function with minimal improvement on milrinone and decreasing urine output despite diuretics and also gross gastrointestinal bleeding with melanotic stool while she was on Coumadin for atrial fibrillation. In addition, there was concern for sepsis and she was placed on antibiotics with levofloxacin, Flagyl, and vancomycin. She required a transfer to the Cardiac Care Unit on 9/15/06 for further medical therapy for poor cardiac output, a possible need for CVVH, given volume overload in the setting of renal failure, and work-up of GIB. Her code status was DNR/DNI, but was changed to comfort measures only on 1/17/06 due to a large ascending colorectal mass with ulcerations. Being CMO status, she was removed of all pressors and antibiotics and made comfortable sedated on fentanyl and Versed. She was then extubated for comfort with family present and had agonal breathing with episodes of apnea and was given additional sedation for comfort. The patient drew her last breath at 2:20 p.m. with family present and was pronounced dead at 2:20 p.m. on 1/17/06. Family declined autopsy. | Why did the patient have vancomycin | {

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. Her head CT was negative for bleeding and she was discharged home on March, 2003 with instructions to follow up with her primary care physician. | Is the patient currently or have they ever taken plavix | {

The patient, a 60M with newly-diagnosed DM, hyperlipidemia, glaucoma, h/o EtOH abuse, and erectile dysfunction, presented to the ED for the second time in 3 days with unsteadiness and sleepiness. Workup including head CTA and MRI were negative, and he was discharged with Metformin and plans for Holter and TTE. He returned to the ED with BS 277. No fevers, headaches, focal neuro findings, vertigo, visual changes, CP, SOB, n/v, abd pain, dysuria, or joint pain were found. Labs were significant for glucose 314, elevated lipids (Chol 302, Trig 323, LDL 189), and HbA1c 11.1%. EKG had old j-point elevation laterally, physical and neuro exam were normal. Explanations for episodes considered were TIA of posterior circulation vs. seizure, less likely atypical migraine or sleep disorder. At the time of discharge, the patient was stable and feeling very good. He was given ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID 81 MG PO DAILY, LIPITOR (ATORVASTATIN) 10 MG PO DAILY, GLYBURIDE 2.5 MG PO DAILY X 60 doses, METFORMIN 500 MG PO BID, a low-fat house diet, and acyclovir this week but stopped Wed for possible neuro side effects. Aspirin dose was increased from 81 mg to 325 mg qd and a prescription for an automatic BP cuff for monitoring at home was given. To better manage blood sugars, glyburide was added which should be taken once a day in addition to metformin twice a day, and he should check his blood sugars 3-4 times per day. He will followup with Dr. Clesen on Monday, and will be evaluated this week with TTE with bubble-study to r/o intracardiac source or PFO and EEG if Neurology deems possibility of seizure. | Was the patient ever given acyclovir for small rash | {

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.

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

The patient is a 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 there been a prior imdur | {

This is a 46-year-old morbidly obese female with a history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus complicated by BKA on two prior occasions, who was admitted to the MICU with BKA, urosepsis, and a non-Q-wave MI. On presentation to the Emergency Department, her vital signs were notable for a blood pressure of 189/92, pulse rate of 120, respiratory rate of 20, and an O2 sat of 90%. She was given insulin, sublingual nitroglycerin x three, 4 mg of morphine, 5 mg of Lopressor, and started on a heparin drip and IV antibiotics, and admitted to the MICU for further management. Her past medical history included insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus for how many years, positive ethanol use, approximately one drink per week, and denied IV drug use or other illicit drug use. She was placed on an insulin drip and hydrated with intravenous fluids, with improvement, and eventually transitioned to NPH with insulin sliding scale coverage. Despite escalating her dose of NPH up to 65 U subcu b.i.d. on the day of discharge, she continued to have elevated blood sugars >200 and required coverage with insulin sliding scale. This issue will need to be addressed as an outpatient. She was also placed on cefotaxime for gram negative coverage, with both her blood cultures and urine cultures growing out E. coli which were sensitive to cefotaxime and gentamycin. As she initially continued to be febrile and continued to have positive blood cultures, one dose of gentamycin was given for synergy, and she was eventually transitioned to p.o. levofloxacin and will take 7 days of p.o. levofloxacin to complete a total 14-day course of antibiotics for urosepsis. She was initially placed on aspirin, heparin, and a beta blocker, and once her creatinine normalized, an ACE inhibitor was also added. Heparin was discontinued once the concern for PE was alleviated, and her beta blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated up for a goal systolic blood pressure of <140 and a pulse of <70. On admission, the patient was on several pain medicines, including amitriptyline, Flexeril, and Valium for reported history of sciatica and low back pain, which were discontinued and she was placed on Neurontin for likely diabetic neuropathy. She was also placed on GI prophylaxis with Carafate and treated symptomatically with Imodium p.r.n. diarrhea. The patient was discharged with enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., NPH Humulin insulin 65 U subcu b.i.d., human insulin sliding scale: for blood sugars 151-200 give 4 U, for blood sugars 201-250 give 6 U, for blood sugars 251-300 give 8 U, for blood sugars 301-350 give 10 U, Imodium 2 mg p.o. q. 6 hrs. p.r.n. diarrhea, Niferex 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., nitroglycerin 1/150 one tab sublingual q. 5 min. x 3 p.r.n. chest pain, multivitamin one tab p.o. q.d., simvastatin 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., Neurontin 600 mg p.o. t.i.d., levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. q.d. x 5 days, Toprol XL 400 mg p.o. q.d., lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q.d.

This is a 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 | Is there history of use of nexium | {

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

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.

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.

This 39-year-old female with a history of discoid lupus and pericarditis presented with severe substernal chest pain after having prednisone and Plaquenil discontinued. She first developed arthralgias of various joints, which were treated with aspirin, Motrin and steroids. In 1985, she developed pleuritic substernal chest pain and was diagnosed at Westten Hospital with pericarditis. In 1988, she was seen at the Arthritis Clinic by Dr. Goerlitz and was treated with Plaquenil 200 bid, plus aspirin and Naprosyn. In 22 of May, she was diagnosed with a lupus flare and was put on prednisone 30 q am and in 23 of March, the steroids were tapered off and discontinued. However, she presented with increasing joint pain and had her prednisone restarted with Plaquenil 200 bid, Motrin 80 tid, prednisone 10 q am, Dilantin 200 bid, and prednisone 30 q day. Laboratory examination showed electrolytes within normal limits, CK of 76, white count of 4.7, hematocrit of 30, platelets of 352,000, mean corpuscular volume of 83, ESR of 88, oxygen saturation of 99% on room air, and urinalysis showed specific gravity of 1.026, 2+ protein, 10 to 15 white cells, 8 to 10 red blood cells and a few granular casts.

This 70-year-old female with CHF, coronary artery disease, diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and chronic renal insufficiency was admitted on 0/5/06 for weakness and confusion. Her hospital course was complicated by worsening cardiac function with minimal improvement on milrinone and decreasing urine output despite diuretics and also gross gastrointestinal bleeding with melanotic stool while she was on Coumadin for atrial fibrillation. In addition, there was concern for sepsis and she was placed on antibiotics with levofloxacin, Flagyl, and vancomycin. She required a transfer to the Cardiac Care Unit on 9/15/06 for further medical therapy for poor cardiac output, a possible need for CVVH, given volume overload in the setting of renal failure, and work-up of GIB. Her code status was DNR/DNI, but was changed to comfort measures only on 1/17/06 due to a large ascending colorectal mass with ulcerations. Being CMO status, she was removed of all pressors and antibiotics and made comfortable sedated on fentanyl and Versed. She was then extubated for comfort with family present and had agonal breathing with episodes of apnea and was given additional sedation for comfort. The patient drew her last breath at 2:20 p.m. with family present and was pronounced dead at 2:20 p.m. on 1/17/06. Family declined autopsy. | What medications did the patient take for comfort | {

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.

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 | Has the patient ever tried regular insulin | {

The patient, a 72-year-old male, was admitted for an incarcerated chronic ventral hernia post sigmoid colectomy, colostomy, and Hartmann's operation. His hospital course was complicated by postoperative acute respiratory failure, respiratory acidosis with metabolic acidosis, pleural effusion, hypokalemia, myocardial infarction, thrombocytopenia, and delirium. He had a known history of penile cancer status post penectomy complicated by perineal urethrocutaneous fistula, chronic anemia requiring transfusions, non-insulin-dependant diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, obesity, and recurrent UTIs. He was given a suprapubic catheter placed by Urology and was started on TPN after a PICC line was placed. He was scoped by GI on 6/20/07, which showed diffuse gastritis thought to be due to the NG tube, and two ulcers turned out to be bleeding. His discharge medications included Tylenol 325 to 650 mg p.o. q.4 h. p.r.n. pain, DuoNeb 3/0.5 mg q.6 h. p.r.n., amiodarone 400 mg p.o. b.i.d. for six more days and then 400 mg p.o. daily, hold for systolic less than 90, heart rate less than 55, econazole nitrate topical daily, heparin 5000 units subcutaneously q.12 h., Regular Insulin sliding scale subcutaneously q.6 h., Imodium A-D 2 mg p.o. b.i.d., metoclopramide 10 mg p.o. q.i.d., Lopressor 50 mg p.o. q.6 h., hold for systolic less than 90, heart rate less than 55, omeprazole 40 mg p.o. b.i.d., oxycodone 1 mg per 1 mL solution for a total of 5 mg p.o. q.4 h. p.r.n. pain, Carafate 1 gm p.o. q.i.d., and Ambien 2.5 mg p.o. nightly. He was not anti-coagulated for his Atrial Fibrillation due to his risk of GI bleeding, as decided by GI.

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

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