Diverticulum arising from the first stage of the duodenum near the gastroduodenal junction may account for the extrinsic compression identified on upper endoscopy. 2. Marked prostatomegaly with diffuse urinary bladder wall thickening which may be in keeping with some degree of chronic bladder outlet obstruction. ___ EGD: Esophagus: Lumen: A Schatzki's ring was found in the gastroesophageal junction. Stomach: Mucosa: Normal mucosa was noted. Duodenum: Lumen: An 8mm stricture was found in the duodenal bulb looking into the second portion of the duodenum. The scope could not transverse the lesion. Other An area of heaped up mucosa from the duodenal bulb into the second portion of the duodenum was seen. No evidence of active bleeding. Impression: Schatzki's ring Normal mucosa in the stomach An area of heaped up mucosa from the duodenal bulb into the second portion of the duodenum was seen. No evidence of active bleeding. Stricture of the duodenal bulb into the second portion of the duodenum Otherwise normal EGD to third part of the duodenum ___ EGD Esophagus: Normal esophagus. Stomach: Normal stomach. Duodenum: Excavated Lesions A single non-bleeding diverticulum with large opening was found in the duodenal bulb and second part of the duodenum junction. Impression: Diverticulum in the duodenal bulb and second part of the duodenum junction Otherwise normal EGD to third part of the duodenum ___ Colonoscopy: Protruding Lesions Small non-bleeding internal hemorrhoids were noted. Other - No evidence of fresh or retained blood. No identifiable source of bleeding - Prep inadequate for colorectal screening as small polyps may have been missed Impression: - No evidence of fresh or retained blood. No identifiable source of bleeding - Prep inadequate for colorectal screening as small polyps may have been missed Internal hemorrhoids Otherwise normal colonoscopy to cecum Brief Hospital Course: ASSESSMENT & PLAN: =================== ___ with a history of HTN, HLD, and AFib on Coumadin presenting as a transfer from ___ for GIB in the setting of supratherapeutic INR, with course complicated by Afib with RVR. #Acute upper GIB: #Anemia Pt presenting with likely rapid upper GIB. He reports recent history of epigastric pain without clear trigger and reported 4 episodes of dark black/bright red stool for which he was given 4u PRBCs and 2u platelets. EGD without active bleed x2 but did see duodenal diverticula and a duodenal stricture. He was evaluated with a colonoscopy which showed no active bleeding nor evidence of fresh or retained blood. There were several non-bleeding internal hemorrhoids. He will need further evaluation for source of bleeding as an outpatient but will likely need dilation of stricture prior to capsule study. Though no source was found he remained hemodynamically stable until the time of discharge, and his H/H at discharge was 8.8/26.7. At time of discharge H.pylori was pending. He was discharged on PPI once a day. He will follow up with GI for further workup of GI bleeding. #AFib with RVR: Patient presented to ___ and found to be tachycardic to 120s in afib with RVR. PMHx of aflutter and afib, not on any rate control as an outpatient as asymptomatic/failure and side effects from sotalol, propefenone per ___ Cards note. A-fib with RVR at this presentation was thought to be likely in setting of stress from increased demand in setting of bleed. CHADS2VASC = 2 (Age, HTN) (moderate-high risk). He was started on diltiazem for rate control and tolerated it well. His warfarin was held in setting of acute GI bleed. It was felt unsafe to restart warfarin as an outpatient given lack of localization of bleed, also because of his relatively low CHADS2VASC. He should continue to hold warfarin until further workup by GI. He will follow up with Cardiology for further titration of his rate control. CHRONIC ISSUES/RESOLVED ISSUES ============================== #OSA: - Home acetazolamide held - Continued CPAP at night #Leukocytosis: WBC elevated up to 14K over the course of this admission but normalized prior to discharge. Unclear etiology, possibly reactive in setting of GIB per above. He reports a few day history of epigastric pain but denies infectious symptoms or sick contacts. Patient was afebrile and otherwise without localizing signs/symptoms of infection. UA bland. BCx/UCx without growth. No ABX were given due to low concern for infection. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES =================== MEDICATIONS STARTED: Diltiazem Extended-Release 120 mg PO DAILY []HR well controlled on diltiazem while in house. Would f/u HR and evaluate need for adjustment in diltiazem dosing. []Repeat CBC at PCP ___ (discharge H/H 8.8/26.7) []Continued on PPI once a day, he should continue this until he follows up with GI []H.pylori pending at time of discharge []No source of bleeding noted on EGD or colonoscopy. Would eval for any additional episodes of bleeding or need for GI f/u. Colonoscopy report also noted prep was not suitable for colorectal cancer screening. Would schedule screening ___ as needed. []Warfarin was not restarted at time of discharge given risk of rebleeding and no known source of bleeding. Should weight risk and benefits of restarting anticoagulation and hold until further workup of GI bleed. #Communication: HCP: ___ Relationship: WIFE Phone: ___ Other Phone: ___ #Code: Full, confirmed Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Mr. ___, It was a pleasure to take care of you at ___. WHY WAS I HERE? You were admitted to the hospital because you had bleeding from your GI tract. WHAT WAS DONE WHILE YOU WERE IN THE HOSPITAL - While you were in the hospital you were given blood. You had endoscopy to look for source of bleeding. They initially found a ring of tissue in your duodenum. - CT of your abdomen was done to rule out a mass as a cause of this ring but was negative. - A second endoscopy was done and showed a diverticulum in your small intestines that was not bleeding. - Your warfarin was held during admission due to bleeding - You were also evaluated with a colonoscopy which showed no source of bleeding WHAT SHOULD I DO WHEN I GET HOME? 1) Follow up with your Primary Care Doctor. 2) Follow up with your Cardiologist 3) Follow up with GI to further work up source of your bleeding 4) You were not restarted on your Warfrain due to risk of bleeding again.

She reports that she was discharged from ___ on ___ after developing shewanella infection from eating contaminated oysters. She had initially developed nausea/vomiting/diarrhea but subsequently developed pneumonia and was discharged on 10 days of IV antibiotics (she cannot remember the name). After finishing the antibiotics on ___ and having her PICC removed she began to feel increasingly fatigued and in the past few days noticed that her urine was orange. This has happened in the past when she had CBD infections related to her "sump syndrome" (a condition occurring after gallbladder surgeries in which the distal CBD acts as a "sump" or reservoir for stones and other debris and can lead to infection or biliary obstruction). She has had past admissions for this in which she has developed bacteremia. Her most recent admission was ___ in which she had a normal RUQ US but abnormal LFTs and was started on on cefepime/flagyl narrowed to cipro for 14 day course with plan to f/u with GI (this follow up did not occur).

She was admitted to the Transplant Nephrology team and treated for the following problems: Acute Cholangitis ----------------- Patient with fatigue and orange urine, concerning for repeat cholangitis secondary to "sump syndrome." LFTs were notably elevated on admission. She also has a history of recent shewanella bacteremia at ___ for which she was on IV antibiotics for, which can colonize the biliary tract. She has had past hospitalizations for similar infections, most recently being treated with ciprofloxacin. RUQUS showed no biliary dilation. To rule out other infections, urine culture was done which was contaminated, but the patient had no urinary tract symptoms. CXR showed densities that were felt to be atelectasis, as the patient had no pulmonary symptoms. She was treated with IV vancomycin, cefepime, and Flagyl. Blood cultures were collected which were pending. Infectious Diseases was consulted who recommended narrowing antibiotic coverage to ciprofloxacin for 7 day course. They also recommended cipro daily 500mg for suppression of further infections and she will follow up with them as an outpatient. Acute kidney injury ------------------- Patient has history of renal disease secondary to polycystic kidney disease status post living related renal transplant. Her Cr was 1.2 on admission from baseline of 0.9, likely a pre-renal etiology in the setting of infection. She was given IV fluids and her creatinine improved. She was continued on her home prednisone 5 mg and azaithroprine 50 mg daily. Cr 1.0 on discharge. Atrial fibrillation ----------------- CHADS2-VASc Score 4. Patient has a history of pacemaker placement. She was noted to be in atrial fibrillation on admission. She was continued on her home metoprolol, flecainide, and aspirin. She was previously determined not to be an appropriate candidate for anticoagulation given her history of upper GI bleeding from gastritis. Chronic diastolic heart failure Home diuretics held temporarily in setting of ___. History of gastritis ------------------- Continued home omeprazole. Hyperlipidemia --------------- Continued home pravastatin. Vaginal yeast infection Patient noted ongoing external vaginal pruritis since last round of antibiotics.

No intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation to suggest choledocholithiasis. 2. A short segment of echogenic material in the proximal left portal vein is suspicious for thrombus. Appropriate color flow is demonstrated proximal and distal to this area. If clinically warranted, further evaluation could performed with a contrast CT study. 3. Small right pleural effusion and ascites. -CT Abdomen with contrast ___: 1. Since ___, there is interval increase in intra and extrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation however no obstructing cause is identified as the CBD tapers gradually towards the ampulla. Dilatation of the pancreatic duct is also stable in comparison to multiple prior studies. 2. Known polycystic kidney disease with innumerable cysts seen throughout the liver and both native kidneys. 3. Interval increase in size of a right cardiophrenic angle lymph node measuring 1.8 x 1.4 cm, of unclear etiology. 4. Moderate bilateral pleural effusions and small volume perihepatic ascites -ERCP ___: - The scout film was normal. - The major papilla was seen on the lateral rim of a large ___ diverticulum. Evidence of a previous sphincterotomy was noted at the major papilla. - Contrast injection revealed a dilated CBD and CHD up to 15 mm. The biliary bifurcation and IHDs were difficult to visualize, with poor contrast filling at first. No filling defects were seen. Although a stricture could not be seen, these findings are concerning for an obstruction secondary to a stricture. However, this would not account for the dilated EH ducts, likely secondary to the post-cholecystectomy status. - The biliary tree was swept with a Extractor Pro Rx ___ mm balloon starting at the bifurcation. A small quantity of pus and a larger quantity of blood were removed. - Given the difficulties in assessing the cause of biliary obstruction, a cholangioscopy was performed using the Spyglass system. The bifurcation was seen and appeared normal. The cholangioscope was advanced further into the right IHD, however visualization was poor and no stricture was seen. An abnormal finding at that level was blood seen within the ducts. - Brushings were performed at the level of the bifurcation and right IHD and sent for cytology. - A ___ x 5cm biliary double pigtail plastic stent was successfully placed in the right IHD. - Excellent bile and contrast drainage was seen endoscopically and fluoroscopically. -CT Chest ___: 1. Simple moderate to large right and small left pleural effusions with associated atelectasis, unchanged from prior abdominal CT. No loculated components. 2. Dilation of the main pulmonary trunk suggestive of underlying pulmonary hypertension. 3. No focal lung lesion. 4. Multiple hepatic and renal cysts are better evaluated on dedicated abdominal CT. -ECHO ___ : The left atrium is mildly dilated. The right atrium is markedly dilated. A 1.2 x 0.4 cm mass/thrombus associated with a catheter/pacing wire is seen in the right atrium attached to the right atrial pacing wire. Left ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity size are normal. There is mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with septal hypokinesis in the setting of ventricular interdependence and loss of septal contribution to contraction. The right ventricular cavity is moderately dilated with moderate global free wall hypokinesis. [Intrinsic right ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of tricuspid regurgitation.] There is abnormal diastolic septal motion/position consistent with right ventricular volume overload. The diameters of aorta at the sinus, ascending and arch levels are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are structurally normal. There is no mitral valve prolapse. No mass or vegetation is seen on the mitral valve. Mild to moderate (___) mitral regurgitation is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Moderate to severe [3+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. [Due to acoustic shadowing, the severity of tricuspid regurgitation may be significantly UNDERestimated.] There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. [In the setting of at least moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation, the estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure may be underestimated due to a very high right atrial pressure.] No vegetation/mass is seen on the pulmonic valve. There is a small pericardial effusion. There are no echocardiographic signs of tamponade. Brief Hospital Course: PATIENT SUMMARY ================ ___ yo woman with ESRD secondary to PCKD s/p LRRT (___), cholecystectomy c/b recurrent infections ___ "sump syndrome", atrial fibrillation s/p PPM, chronic HFpEF, who presents with shortness of breath and elevated LFTs, found to have unexplained hyperbilirubinemia and jaundice. She remained clinically stable without evidence of infection, and underwent uncomplicated diagnostic/therapeutic ERCP with placement of a stent. She tolerated the procedure well, but bilirubin remained elevated. The pathology results of brushings taken during ERCP were negative for malignancy. Given that MRCP was not possible given incompatible pacemaker lead, no further interventions were taken. The patient's dyspnea was attributed to a subacute exacerbation of her known diastolic heart failure, leading to pulmonary effusions and lower extremity edema. The etiology was likely diuretic holidays during multiple recent hospitalizations for cholangitis. Her diuretics were restarted at low doses iso soft blood pressures, and she was discharged to rehab for physical therapy to help mobilize the fluid in her legs and lungs. ACTIVE ISSUES: ================ # Hyperbilirubinemia Ms. ___ has had multiple recent hospitalizations for cholangitis secondary to "sump syndrome," in the setting of her abnormal GI anatomy from bowel surgeries following cholecystectomy. She presented this admission with painless jaundice concerning for intrahepatic obstruction vs malignancy. Her infectious workup was negative, including blood cultures, and initial broad spectrum antibiotics were discontinued after 48 hours. She underwent a CT Abd w/ contrast which showed increased intra and extrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation. She underwent ERCP with placement of a stent. Patient remained afebrile, but bilirubin remained elevated. Hepatology was consulted, and a full autoimmune workup was pursued, which was negative. Ultimately, it was felt that her symptoms were due to secondary sclerosing cholangitis in the setting of her polycystic kidney disease and recurrent cholangitis. She was discharged on Ursodiol with hepatology follow up. # Dyspnea: # Recent Pneumonia # Bilateral Pleural effusions # Lower extremity edema # Chronic diastolic heart failure Ms. ___ was seen the week prior to her admission by her primary doctor for ___ slowly resolving pneumonia, which made him concerned for possible malignancy. She had bilateral moderate pleural effusions seen on initial CXR here, and later better characterized on Chest CT, which did NOT show evidence of a primary malignancy. She remained afebrile with no leukocytosis. She was evaluated by Pulmonology, who recommended diuresis for large simple effusions, likely ___ heart failure. ECHO results as in discharge summary, with RV dilation and TR, with mild interventricular impairment of left ventricle (EF 45%). Pro-BNP was 12347. The patient's home diuretic (Lasix 20mg 3x/week) had been held off and on over the past 2 months during hospitalizations for cholangitis. She underwent gentle diuresis with 40mh PO Lasix given her soft blood pressures, and was discharged on Lasix 20mg PO daily. ___ has recommended acute rehabilitation, which should help mobilize lower extremity edema and pulmonary effusions. No pulmonary follow up indicated. # H/o ESRD secondary to PCKD s/p LRRT (___) # Acute kidney injury Patient presented with increase in Cr to 1.2 (baseline 0.9), possible pre-renal in setting of infection, now resolved to baseline. Continued prednisone 5 mg and azathioprine 50 mg. # Afib s/p PPM # Pacemaker lead mass: On flecainide and metoprolol, not on anticoagulation (not to be an appropriate candidate for AC due to history of significant upper GI bleeding following GI surgeries, as well as delicate skin with multiple skin cancers that bleed easily). Continued home metoprolol, home flecainide, aspirin 81 mg. Permanent ___, placed in ___ is MRI compatible, but pacemaker LEADS are NOT MRI compatible. ECHO showed evidence of pacemaker RA mass concerning for vegetation (unlikely given afebrile, neg BCx) vs thrombus (not on AC except aspirin). Patient has decided that TEE is not within her goals of care, and has declined further evaluation of the pacemaker lead mass after a thoughtful discussion of all options with MDs. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: =================== [ ] Prophylactic Antibiotics: Ciprofloxacin 500mg mg, to be taken if patient develops a fever at home/rehab. [ ] Biliary Stent: Repeat ERCP with Dr. ___ in 3 weeks (___) for biliary stent retrieval and re-evaluation. [ ] Pacemaker thrombus/vegetation: Incidental finding on ECHO. Per goals of care discussion with patient, no intervention at this time, as she does not wish to start anticoagulation. [ ] Diuresis: Lasix was increased to 20mg daily for volume overload.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure taking part in your care here at ___! Why was I admitted to the hospital? - You were admitted for a high bilirubin level and yellow skin (jaundice). What was done for me in the hospital? - You were monitored for signs of infection - You underwent an "ERCP", a procedure where they looked at the inside of your intestinal tract for a reason for your high level of bilirubin. They took tissue samples and placed a stent to help drain the bilirubin. - You had imaging of your chest with a CT scan to look at the fluid in your lungs, which is why we believe you are having shortness of breath. You were seen by the pulmonary doctors, who recommended using medicines to help remove the water, instead of a drainage procedure. You will also need to participate in physical therapy at your rehab center to help regain your strength and help clear the fluid from your lungs and legs. - You had imaging of your heart, which showed a small mass on one of your pacemaker leads. We weren't sure if it was a blood clot or a small infection. We had a long discussion about what to do about this, and ultimately decided to leave it alone. You did not want to start anticoagulation, given your bleeding history. What should I do when I leave the hospital? - Please take all medicines as prescribed. It is especially important to keep taking your Ciprofloxacin antibiotic every day to prevent infections. - Please follow up in 3 weeks with Dr. ___ removal of your biliary stent. - Please make sure you are weighed every day, and if you gain more than 3 pounds, make sure you let your primary care doctor know. - Please follow up with your cardiologist, who will continue to follow up on the small "vegetation" on your pacemaker lead. We wish you the best of luck in your health! Sincerely, Your ___ Treatment Team Followup Instructions: ___

The patient is only able to say that she does not recall the events that brought her in (she recalls she was told she was unresponsive), and she feels like she is at baseline. She recalls her recent admission for influenza. History is provided by ___ ___, ___ House) who witnessed the event and social worker ___ (___) who knows the patient's baseline and history. As above, the patient was recently admitted for influenza, and her last dose of Tamiflu was yesterday. Her mental status/level of functioning and indpendence has been declining over the last year, and she has had waxing/waning confusion since the onset of flu symptom wherein she seems dazed, does not understand instructions, or is less cooperative with staff. This morning, she woke up around 7:00am and seemed more confused than usual. Then, around 8:00am, while being assisted in the shower, her right arm and leg became limp, and she had a right facial droop. She was leaning to the right, and she would have fallen over if not caught by ___ and assisted to the shower chair. She was not speaking at that time and did not appear to respond to questioning. She had a "dead stare" like "a trance" although eyes were open. She was breathing loudly through her nose. There is note made in the ED notes of left gaze preference vs deviation, but ___ denies seeing this. No rhythmic shaking, tongue biting, incontinence, or head version. This episode lasted 5 minutes and then subsided; thereafter, the patient gave ___ word answers that were sometimes inappropriate, and she was not following commands. She did not recognize the ___, which is unusual, and her speech was dysarthric. She then had epistaxis. When given a tissue and told to wipe her nose, she wiped her perineum. After EMS arrival, she had a repeat episode for ___ minutes. Per ___, she did not return to baseline mental status before she left for ___. ___ per EMS 157. NIHSS at ___ was 3 (2 points for not knowing age or month, 1 for mild dysarthria). Also, the patient was only alert and oriented x 1 (details not specified). Labs notable for K of 2.6 and WBC 12.4. CT angiogram of the head and neck demonstrated cerebral aneurysm off of the basilar tip which did not appear to be completely occluded by her previous coiling, so she was transferred to ___ for neurology and neurosurgery evaluations. In addition to the episodes above, she has had 5 episodes of staring blankly for one second in the last 6 months and ___ episodes of staring for ___ minutes with associated weakness of the right, left, or both sides (although the staff is not sure about which side it has previously presented on, could be same side). These typically occur immediately after awakening or within 30 minutes of doing so. Afterward, she does not recall the episodes although she does typically know the staff and acts appropriately. She has also had urinary incontinence at night for the last few days, which is a change from baseline. ___ notes that, after the episodes lasting ___ minutes with associated weakness, they always call EMS; she often returns to baseline by EMS arrival and declines to go to the ED. ___ noted that she has also presented to ___ a few times for these symptoms; however, I can only find a note about episodes of decreased responsiveness lasting less than a minute in ___ with no mention of weakness--she was treated for UTI at that time. At baseline, she feeds herself and ambultes with a walker. She requires assistance with dressing and bathing. She requires help wtih all iADLs. On neuro ROS, the pt denies headache, loss of vision, blurred vision, diplopia, dysarthria, dysphagia, lightheadedness, vertigo, tinnitus, and hearing difficulty.

Old bilateral thalamotomy infarcts. Patient has a aneurysm clip involving the right middle cerebral artery region. Ventricles and cisterns: There is a right-sided ventriculoperitoneal shunt tubing in the right ventricle. The ventricles are of normal size. Calvarium: The bony calvarium appears intact. Sinuses: Paranasal sinuses are clear Scalp: No evidence of hematoma or laceration. # CT Head w/ contrast: 1. Streak artifact from a basilar tip aneurysm coil limits evaluation of the surrounding brain parenchyma. Otherwise no definite evidence of mass lesion within the limitations of CT. Please note contrast enhanced MRI of the brain is more sensitive for the evaluation of intracranial mass. 2. 8 mm berry aneurysm of the basilar tip adjacent to patient's aneurysm coil, as seen on recent outside CTA. 3. Right VP shunt catheter terminates in the frontal horn of the right lateral ventricle. No evidence of hydrocephalus. 4. Hypodensity in the right frontal lobe along the right VP shunt catheter, as well as in the left frontal lobe under a old left burr hole, likely at the site of a prior VP shunt. Brief Hospital Course: Ms ___ is an ___ year old R handed woman with a history of aneurysmal SAH (s/p coiling and VP shunt in ___, possible dementia, prior strokes, and recent influenza, who presents after two recent episodes of right face, arm, and leg weakness and aphasia. She is amnestic to these episodes. She has apparently had several (___) similar episodes over the last 6 months. Neurologic exam on admission was generally non-focal, only notable for hearing loss, mild disorientation and difficulty with recall. Differential diagnosis for her episodes primarily includes seizure, TIA/infarct, or recrudescence of old deficits in the setting of infection. In the hospital continuous EEG monitoring showed only right hemispheric slowing. There were no epileptiform discharges or seizures. No episodes of weakness or aphasia were captured. We attempted to perform an MRI, but were unable to obtain information from her family, other providers, or the ___ about her VPS make/model or settings. Therefore, a CT head with contrast was obtained. This showed no acute lesions to account for her episodes. Overall, given the description of the events, and particularly her amnesia for them, it was felt that clinically they were consistent with seizure. As she has had several events in the past six months, an antiepileptic medication is warranted. She was started on keppra 750mg q12h. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: -CTA on admission showed that her basilar tip aneurysm was only partially coiled. Neurosurgery was consulted and recommended outpatient follow up. She will need to call the ___ clinic to schedule an appointment. - Started keppra as above - Hypertensive with systolics in the 180-190s, she was started on amlodipine 5mg PO daily Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Out of Bed with assistance to chair or wheelchair. Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms ___, It was a pleasure caring for you at ___ ___. You were in the hospital because of several episodes of weakness and difficulty speaking. In the hospital, we monitored you on an EEG to look for seizures. We did not see any evidence of seizure, but it is still possible that the events you were having at home were seizure. We also did a CT scan of your head, which showed that the aneurysm in your head is only partially coiled. You will need to see the Neurosurgeons in clinic to monitor this and discuss the next steps. When you leave the hospital, we will start you on a medication to prevent seizures called Keppra. It is very important to take this every day, since missing doses of the medication can cause seizure. We will also start you on a medicine for high blood pressure, called Amlodipine. Best wishes, Your ___ team Followup Instructions: ___

Stable. . ___ C- CT HEAD IMPRESSION: Several white matter hypodensities, of uncertain etiology. If there is continued concern for infection or infarction, MR head may be considered if no contraindications are present. . ___ C- MRI HEAD IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of acute infarct, hemorrhage, or septic emboli. 2. Extensive bilateral subcortical and periventricular T2-FLAIR hyperintensity which is nonspecific and likely representing microangiopathic chronic ischemic changes. . ___ RUQ U/S IMPRESSION: 1. No drainable intrahepatic fluid collection. 2. New perihepatic fluid. Given the patients pain, considerations include biliary leak. Other possibilities are perihepatic hemorrhage or serous fluid. . ___ CXR FINDINGS: In comparison with study of ___, there is little change in the low lung volumes, enlargement of the cardiac silhouette, and mild pulmonary vascular congestion. No evidence of acute focal pneumonia. The apparent poor definition of the right hemidiaphragm on the lateral view could be artifactual or reflect some crowding of vessels. . ___ C- CT ABD/PELVIS 1. Minimal increased size of a perihepatic fluid. Differential would include a bile leak or small volume hematoma. If there is concern for a bile leak, then a HIDA scan could be performed to evaluate. 2. Slight decreased size of an abscess within the right lobe of the liver. 3. Increased right pleural effusion with right basilar atelectasis. 4. Severe atherosclerotic disease. Severe coronary artery calcification. Stable left ventricular calcified aneurysm. . ___ RUQ US FINDINGS: Visualization of the liver is somewhat limited due to the limited sonographic window. A heterogeneous round region is again seen in the right lobe of the liver consistent with the abscess seen on prior imaging. This area is not significantly increased in size measuring 4.1 x 3.9 x 3.9 cm (previously 3.3 x 4.1 cm). No additional fluid is seen within the liver. No biliary dilatation is seen and the common duct measures .5 cm. No free fluid is seen in the perihepatic space. There is a small right pleural effusion. IMPRESSION: No significant change in the region of the prior abscess seen within the right lobe of the liver. No perihepatic fluid is identified. 2) Small right pleural effusion. . ___ CXR FINDINGS: Patient's condition required examination in sitting upright position using AP frontal and left lateral views. Direct comparison is made with the next preceding single AP chest view of ___. Direct comparison of the frontal views does not demonstrate evidence of any new pulmonary parenchymal infiltrate could be identified as pneumonia. The patient is status post sternotomy and multiple surgical clips in the left anterior mediastinal structures are indicative of previous bypass surgery. Mild-to-moderate cardiac enlargement is present. The on previous examination identified perivascular haze and the pulmonary circulation has normalized to some degree and there is no evidence of new pulmonary pleural effusions as the lateral and posterior pleural sinuses remain free. Position of previously described double-lumen dialysis catheter is unchanged. No pneumothorax can be identified. On the lateral view, posterior pleural sinuses are grossly free and thus no evidence of significant pleural effusion is present. Review of multiple previous chest examinations as well as CT interventional procedure and reference chest examinations from other institutions beginning in ___ is performed. Already on the first examination, one could identify a circular calcification overlying the cardiac apical area on the frontal view. It is difficult to identify this on the portable chest examinations, considering the patient's bypass surgery, possibility of a calcified left ventricular apical aneurysm comes to mind. Unfortunately, we have no access to patient's initial diagnostic procedure when the cardiac surgery was performed. The interventional procedure of ___, demonstrated extensive arterial calcifications in the mesenteric area as well. Noteworthy is that the patient at that time was successfully treated for a liver abscess. IMPRESSION: Less marked pulmonary congestion since next preceding portable chest examination. Again, no evidence of acute pneumonic infiltrate can be suspected to be the culprit for patient's rising white blood count. Can liver abscess explain these findings? . OTHER STUDIES . ECHO (___) The left atrium is mildly dilated. No left atrial mass/thrombus seen (best excluded by transesophageal echocardiography). There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The left ventricular cavity is mildly dilated. There is mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with severe hypo/akinesis of the inferolateral wall. The remaining segments contract normally (LVEF = 45 %). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened. There is mild aortic valve stenosis (valve area 1.2-1.9cm2). No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets and supporting structures are mildly thickened. A vegetation cannot be excluded. An eccentric, jet of mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is an anterior space which most likely represents a prominent fat pad. IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality. Left ventricular cavity enlargement with regional systolic dysfunction c/w CAD. Mild aortic valve stenosis. Mitral leaflet thickening with eccentric jet of mild mitral regurgitation. Pulmonary artery hypertension. If clinically indicated, a TEE is suggested to better define the mitral valve morphology. . ECHO (___): No spontaneous echo contrast or thrombus is seen in the body of the left atrium/left atrial appendage or the body of the right atrium/right atrial appendage. Right and left atrial appendage ejection velocities are good (>20 cm/s). No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. No thrombi are seen on the right atrial catheter. Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF>55%). [Intrinsic function may be depressed given the severity of mitral regurgitation.] Right ventricular systolic function is normal. There are complex (>4mm, non-mobile) atheroma in the aortic arch and the descending thoracic aorta. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened with no aortic regurgitation. No masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve. The mitral valve leaflets are moderately thickened. Echodensities are identified on the left atrial side of the valve and likely represent partial posterior mitral leaflet flail/torn chordae, though a vegetation cannot be fully excluded. An eccentric, anteriorly directed jet of severe (4+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened with mild to moderate regurgitation. No vegetation/mass is seen on the tricuspid valve. No vegetation/mass is seen on the pulmonic valve.There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Mitral leaflet thickening with focal echodensities on the left atrial side most suggestive of partial leaflet flail/torn chordae (though cannot exclude vegetation if endocarditis is clinically suggested) and eccentric jet of severe mitral regurgitation. Aortic valve sclerosis. Non-mobile complex aortic atheroma. . PROCEDURE NOTES . CT-Guided Liver Abscess Drainage (___) 18-gauge ___ needle was steadily introduced under the CT fluoroscopic guidance into the right lobe abscess. Once confirmed within the abscess, total of 16 mL of purulent material was aspirated. The abscess was septated and different types of fluid were aspirated from different pockets of the abscess ranging from pus to brownish cloudy fluid. The liver abscess decreased in size after aspiration. The patient tolerated the procedure well and there are no immediate complication. The fluid was sent for microbiology, for culture and sensitivity, Gram-Stain as per request. IMPRESSION: Aspiration of 16 mL of purulent fluid from the right liver abscess. The abscess was septated, fluid was aspirated fom different pockets as described above. . U/S Guided Bile Drainage (___): IMPRESSION: 700 cc aspiration of bilious perihepatic fluid suggesting biliary leak. . ERCP (___): Findings: Esophagus: Limited exam of the esophagus was normal Stomach: Limited exam of the stomach was normal Duodenum: Limited exam of the duodenum was normal Major Papilla: Normal major papilla Cannulation: Cannulation of the biliary duct was successful and deep with a sphincterotome using a free-hand technique. Contrast medium was injected resulting in complete opacification. Biliary Tree Fluoroscopic interpretation: A mild diffuse dilation was seen at the biliary tree with the CBD measuring 8-10 mm. No filling defects or extravasation of contrast was noted. Due to known liver abscess, a high pressure cholangiogram was not performed. Procedures: A 7cm by ___ Cotton ___ biliary stent was placed successfully given high suspicion for bile leak. Impression: Normal major papilla A mild diffuse dilation was seen at the biliary tree with the CBD measuring 8-10 mm. No filling defects or extravasation of contrast was noted. Due to known liver abscess, a high pressure cholangiogram was not performed. A biliary stent was placed successfully.

Hospital course was notable for bile leak leading to peritonitis, drainage of liver abscess, placement of biliary stent to relieve biliary obstruction, and treatment of separate E. coli urinary tract infection and C. difficile colitis. Patient was seen by Infectious Disease, Renal, and Surgical services, and no changes were made to her indwelling left IJ hemodialysis catheter. #Sepsis due to E. coli liver abscess and E. coli septicemia/E. coli urinary tract infection/C. difficile colitis: Patient was admitted with fevers and blood cultures from outside hospital and this hospital grew pansensitive E. coli. The patient was initially treated empirically with vancomycin/cefepime and then narrowed to cefazolin. HD line locks were also initiated. All parties seriously considered HD line pull due to possibilities of seeding or sourcing, but it was deemed by multiple surgical services that the procedure may be quite morbid, as the line is unable to be easily pulled and likely attached to the lining of either a blood vessel or R heart. Therefore, the HD line was left in place with all blood cultures negative following initiation of antibiotics. Imaging studies localized infectious source to a hepatic abscess which was drained percutaneously (see below). Soon thereafter, antibiotics were re-broadened to vancomycin/zosyn in the setting worsening clinical status and a discovered perihepatic bile leak. Antibiotics were changed yet again on ___ (from vanc/zosyn -> ceftaz/flagyl) when WBC count rose despite overall clinical improvement and the discovery of a separate E. coli urinary tract infection and positive C. diff PCR in the setting of leukocytosis and diarrhea. Patient did well with ceftaz and flagyl and po vancomycin for C. diff and was discharged to complete a 6 week course of antibiotics for E. coli septicemia (given concurrent HD line) with po vancomycin to be continued for 2 weeks after discontinuation of all other antibiotics. Pt will follow-up with infectious disease in ___ clinic for this and other ongoing infections (see below). Antibiotic end-dates determined by infectious disease consult team (see discharge medication list for length of treatment). # HEPATIC ___ BILE LEAK In search for infectious souce, hepatic abscess was identified on CT scan. Drained by CT-guided interventional radiology proceduralist on ___ - fluid grew out pan-sensitive E coli. A few days thereafter she developed acute-onset R-sided pain. After multiple imaging studies, moderate amount of ___ fluid identified. This fluid was sampled by US-guided needle aspiration (700cc bile drained, thought likely a ___ drainage complication). The fluid was bilious; fluid culture/gram stain showed no evidence of infection. To decrease likelihood of ongoing biliary leak, pt underwent CBD stenting for biliary obstruction on ___. Abdominal discomfort and white count improved after these procedures (until development of Cdiff colitis, see below). A repeat interval U/s s/p drainage demonstrated only scant re-accumulation of fluid in the abscess & ___ space. Pt treated with antibiotics as above; discharged on ceftaz/flagyl with course determined by ID (see ___ med list). Note: the biliary stent needs to be removed approximately one month after deployment (f/u ERCP procedure scheduled). #Leukocytosis: WBC count trended down after treatment of E. coli UTI and C. difficile. Pt was hemodynamically stable and afebrile for several days prior to discharge. . # ESRD on HD Pt is dialysis-dependent & oliguric. Access via LIJ HD line (see above). The patient was continued on T, Th, Sa HD w/ cefazolin line locks which were transitioned to ceftazidime locks when systemic antibiotics were changed. Trended Ca x Phos product, which had been elevated; this improved with increased doses cinacalcel, sevelamer, and HD dialysate modifications. Renal consult followed closely throughout the hospitalization and arranged antibiotics/antibiotic line locks for post-dc HD sessions at rehab. . #Chronic systolic heart failure complicated by severe mitral regurgitation: Antihypertensive medications (imdur, lasix & carvedilol) were held in setting of relative hypotension in the setting of infection were also held on discharge. Volume was managed with HD. Patient did not have evidence of significant pulmonary edema during hospitalization. Would consider initiation of afterload reducing agents if BPs are consistently >140s/40s or if patient has symptomatic mitral regurgitation/heart failure. #Encephalopathy: This was felt to be related to concurrent infections and improved with treatment of infection. Patient did have waxing and waning sensorium w/stereotypic tongue movement. Neuroimaging showed no e/o acute stroke or bleed. Neurology consulted for question of epilepsy (sharps seen on EEG) but felt tongue movements not stereotypic or rhythmic, likely habitual/no need for AEDs. Mental status returned to baseline with discontinuation of all sedating medications and ongoing treatment for underlying infectious processes and abdominal pain. Therefore, AMS most likely was metabolic encephalopathy in the setting of severe illness & pain superimposed upon background of prior CVA. Husband felt pt at baseline for 5 days prior to discharge. . # C DIFFICILE COLITIS BMs alternated between constipation and loose stools. Cdiff toxin assay negative twice, then Cdiff PCR positive on ___. Started PO vancomycin which should continue past discontinuation of all other antibiotics (see discharge med list for end-date). . # DECUBITUS ULCERS Pt found to have stage II sacral decubitus ulcers and L heel ulcer on admission. Followed by wound care consult. Nurses followed recommendations daily, including dressing changes, limiting sit-time and moving the patient in bed regularly. Wound care nursing evaluation and recommendations (see OMR) were provided to rehab facility with discharge paperwork. . ======================== CHRONIC ISSUES ======================== #Type 2 Diabetes mellitus: Titrated home lantus to fasting AM fingersticks (decreased to 35U qHS)BS well-controlled. No sliding scale required for most of hospitalization. . . # CHRONIC MACROCYTIC ANEMIA Hct 33.7 w/MCV 115, at baseline. B12 and folate not deficient. . # CAD Hx CABG, stents and CVA. ASA 81 started during this admission. . # HYPERLIPIDEMIA Continued pravastatin 40 mg qHS. . # DEPRESSION Continued fluoxetine 40 mg daily. . # ATRIAL FIBRILLATION HR well-controlled, 80s on telemetry, no alarms for RVR.

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: F Service: MEDICINE Allergies: ___ IV Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: s/p unwitnessed fall Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None. History of Present Illness: Ms. ___ is a ___ year old ___ speaking woman with a history of diastolic heart failure with multiple prior CHF exacerbations, HTN, CAD, and blindness who presents after an unwitnessed fall. Per the patient and her son, she had last been seen by her son prior to going bed. Overnight, she awoke to use her commode and upon returning, experienced a fall where she did not strike her head and did not lose consciousness, and did not feel chest pain, shortness of breath, or palpitations. However, she did not have the strength to get up afterwards so was found this morning on the floor of her apartment in assisted living by her home health aid. Of note, the patient recently presented to ___ ED last week after another unwitnessed fall where she landed on her L shoulder. Head CT, L shoulder films, and R knee films conducted at the time did not show any evidence of acute fracture so she was discharged home with some residual left shoulder and right knee bruising. Since that time, her son has noticed the patient has had increased unsteadiness of her gait. Specifically, she has been favoring her left legs as if afraid to bear weight on her right knee. At baseline, the patient does not have exertional dypsnea or anginal chest pain. Although she has bilateral lower extremity edema L>R, she and her son do not think that it is increased from baseline. Notably, the patient has had a gradual decreased dose of her Lasix from 20mg BID to 10mg daily. She is otherwise negative for missing medication doses, changes in her diet. She currently has a headache, but otherwise denies fever, chills, night sweats, recent weight loss or gain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation or abdominal pain. No recent change in bowel or bladder habits. No dysuria. Denied arthralgias or myalgias. Past Medical History: 1. CHF (LVEF 60% and 3+ mitral regurg. on ___ 2.

Left ___ block. Compared to the previous tracing of ___ sinus bradycardia is now present. ___ CXR: Mild pulmonary edema. ___ Bilateral: There is severe osseous demineralization but no evidence of fracture or dislocation. Moderate degenerative changes of both hips are noted. There is no evidence of a pelvic fracture or diastasis of the symphysis pubis. Degenerative changes of the SI joints and lumbar spine are observed in these limited views. There are extensive vascular calcifications and the bowel gas pattern is unremarkable. ___ CT Head w/o contrast: There is severe osseous demineralization but no evidence of fracture or dislocation. Moderate degenerative changes of both hips are noted. There is no evidence of a pelvic fracture or diastasis of the symphysis pubis. Degenerative changes of the SI joints and lumbar spine are observed in these limited views. There are extensive vascular calcifications and the bowel gas pattern is unremarkable. ___ CT ___: Severe degenerative changes as described above, placing the patient at increased risk for cord injury (MR may be considered if clinical concern for cord injury), but no evidence of fracture; stable grade I anterolisthesis of C2 and C7 as described above. ___ ECHO: Mild LVH with normal global and regional biventricular systolic function. Mild aortic stenosis. Moderate mitral regurgitation. Mild pulmonary hypertension. Compared with the report of the prior study (images unavailable for review) of ___, mild aortic stenosis has developed. The other findings appear similar. Brief Hospital Course: ___ year old ___ speaking woman with a history of diastolic heart failure with multiple prior CHF exacerbations, HTN, CAD, and blindness who presents after an unwitnessed fall found to have pulmonary edema on CXR. # s/p Fall: The patient presented after being found after an unwitnessed fall in her apartment. Of note, she recently presented to ___ one week prior to admission after another unwitnessed fall where Head CT and ___ of her left shoulder and right knee did not show any acute process or fracture. Per her report (with translator), she did not lose consciousness an the fall was not precipitated by chest pain, heart palpitations, or positional change. However, she reports chronic right knee pain and the son noted that she had unsteady gait in the few days prior to admission. Also, she was noted to be on an aggressive antihypertensive regimen on admission which may have caused low blood pressure or orthostasis which precipitated her fall. Head CT, CT ___, and bilateral hip ___ conducted on admission did not show acute process. During this hospital admission, the patient had two sets of cardiac enzymes that were negative. She was also kept on telemetry which revealed couplets and premature ventricular contractions. Physical therapy was consulted on two days to evaluate the patient's unsteady gait and recommended that patient would benefit from rehab. However, on the evening prior to anticipated discharge, the patient's son wanted to take pt home despite these recommendations, and did not want to wait until the following morning to discuss alternative ways to make a discharge home more safe. It was determined that the patient did not have capacity to make this decision. Therefore, the risks of early discharge were discussed with the son. He acknowledged these risks and the patient was discharged AMA. # Acute on chronic diastolic heart failure: The patient has a history of Diastolic CHF with most recent ECHO in ___ showing normal EF and 3+ MR. ___ was noted to be slightly volume overloaded with small bilateral pleural effusions noted on CXR and trace lower extremity edema. This was likely the setting of decreasing her lasix dose of the last several weeks. A repeat transthoracic ECHO was conducted on ___ that showed mild aortic stenosis with 3+ mitral regurgitation. The patient's home dose of Lasix 10mg PO daily was increased to 20mg PO daily with improvement in her lung exam. Her electrolytes remained within normal limits and her kidney function was within her baseline throughout this admission. Because of early discharge we could not ensure a consistent stable volume status on her higher lasix dosage. # Hyponatremia: The patient was found to be hyponatremic with a sodium level of 130 on admission (her sodium level was 132 on her prior ED visit a week prior to this admission). In the setting of her mild pulmonary edema, the hyponatremia was thought to be in the setting of volume overload. When she was mildly diuresed, her sodium level did not improve, so it was thought that is was possible that her hyponatremia could be due to intravascular volume depletion. Na was 130 at time of discharge. This should be rechecked at follow up. # Hypertension: The patient's blood pressures were in the systolics of SBP ___ on the night after admission. Given the concern that hypotension could be contributing to her fall as well as given the patient's ___ (coronary artery disease and diastolic heart failure), the patient's home regimen was changed by STOPPING her amlodipine and hydralizine, and CHANGING lisinopril to 20 mg daily. Her Imdur and Metoprolol were maintained at the same dose. However, we could not effectively communicate this new regimen to her son at discharge. # Coronary artery disease: She was continued on ASA, ___, imdur. She was without active anginal symptoms throughout this hospitalization. # Arthritis/ low back pain: The patient was maintained on her home Tylenol without symptoms increased from baseline. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: - electrolytes should be checked at follow up - blood pressure will need to be closely monitored given recent medication adjustments during admission PENDING STUDIES: - None ___: - patient should schedule an appointment with her PCP MEDICATIONS - CHANGED Furosemide 10mg PO daily to 20mg PO daily - DISCONTINUED Hydralazine - DISCONTINUED Amlodipine CODE STATUS: DNR/DNI during this admission Medications on Admission: Preadmission medications listed are correct and complete.

Heart size and cardiomediastinal contours are normal. Lungs are clear without focal consolidation, pleural effusion, or pneumothorax. IMPRESSION: No focal consolidation. Brief Hospital Course: ___ yo F with poorly controlled asthma, bronchiectasis, history of positive PPD and tobacco use presents with shortness of breath. # Asthma exacerbation - Most likely due to discontinuing home prednisone and non-compliance with medications. We initially placed pt on solumedrol 125mg Q6hr x2 days and further transitioned her to prednisone 40mg. However, patient's symptoms and lung exam worsened upon transitioning to prednisone and thus, taper may have been too quick for her. We resumed solumedrol 125mg Q6hr x2 days, then tapered to 80mg Q8 x1 day and then to prednisone 60mg daily with the following taper: 60mg x5 days, 50mg x3 days, 40mg x3 day, 30mg x3 days, 20mg x3 days, 10mg until f/u with Dr. ___. We also treated her with levofloxacin for total of 7 days, last dose on ___. Per pulmonogy recommendation, we initiated azathioprine 50mg daily upon discharge upon normal LFT's, negative hepatitis serology, and negative serum HCG. Given concern for EGPA on behalf of primary pulmonologist, we consulted rheumatology who believed that current presentation is unlikely to be due to EGPA given lack of symptoms suggestive of vasculitis and other systemic involvement. We also initiated bactrim for PCP ___. There was evidence of thrush due to chronic steroid use and patient was started on nystatin mouth wash. The following were found on outside hospital records: IgE 181 and ESR 34. # hand and leg pain/numbness - Peripheral neuropathy is a common presentation in EGPA but usually presents as mononeuritis multiplex, or as peripheral neuropathy in "stocking and glove" distribution. Her presentation is more c/w radicular vs. vasculitic. - outpatient f/u w/ neurology as previous work-up suggestive of cervical stenosis, had recommended MRI. - Rheum consult as above # pulmonary nodules - unclear significance - radiology recommends f/u study with CT in ___ year. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: [] neuropathy of ___ - has appointment scheduled with neurology as there is concern for radicular neuropathy [] hypertension: pt hypertensive to 150's/100's throughout hospital course. Currently, on no antihypertensives. Renal function normal. [] attention to follow-up regarding LLL pulmonary nodule noted on chest CT dated ___ [] please schedule close follow-up (within ___ weeks) with Dr. ___ pulmonary) and with PCP [] drug monitoring as above [] follow-up pending studies as above [] follow-up blood glucose level as outpatient while on steroid therapy [] Has received pneumonia vaccine in ___ at ___ and flu vaccine on ___.

Brief Hospital Course: ___ with hx of Afib off coumadin, HTN, HLD, cerebellar CVA, and VRE UTI presenting from assisted living with progressive confusion, agitation and to r/o UTI. #) Sterile pyuria: Urine culture on ___ with no growth, and thus we discontinued ceftriaxone. 23 WBCs on UA with no bacteria and moderate leuks. Pt with no dysuria though there is concern that her acute agitation and MS changes may be related to infection. Given her MS changes and pending urine culture, we kept pt on ctx until urine culture returned as no growth. She did receive 3 doses of ceftriaxone, so was treated empirically for a UTI. #) Dementia: Most likely d/t worsening dementia as now UTI has been ruled out. NCHCT with no acute abnormalities. She has no new medications changes and her infectious w/u is thus far negative. Pt resides in a locked dementia unit and has been hospialized multiple times in the past in the psych unit. Given pt's needs, she may need 24-hour care in a nursing home as she now resides in an assisted care living (locked dementia unit). - hold sedating/deliriogenic medications such as hydroxyzine - outpatient f/u including neuropsychiatric evaluation #) Recurrent Falls - unclear etiology though may be related to deconditioning vs orthostasis vs mechanical falls vs tacchyarrhythmia. Seems to be a chronic issue. EKG shows a-fib but is rate-controlled and is unlikely to be the cause. Patient has history of CVA and may most likely be due to residual ataxia. #) HTN: normotensive here, continued on home medications. - continue losatan - continue dilt #) Afib/flutter: rate controlled here. not anticoagulated as an outpatient so was not started here. - continue diltiazem #) Depression: stable. Her behavioral changes may be explained by depression. - continue duloxetine - continue mirtazapine #) Hypothyroidism: stable - continue levothyroxine - TSH 3.4 #) Pruritis: stable - holding hydroxyzine - sarna lotion prn TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: [] given progressive decline in cognition, further imaging such as MRI may be warranted [] outpatient neuropsychiatric evaluation given worsening of confusion and agitation Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list may be inaccurate and requires futher investigation. 1.

Patient reportedly experienced 2 unwitnessed falls with headstrike at her rehabilitation facility and was brought to ___. To most examining physicians, she did not endorse any symptoms of chest pain or palpitations (although she subsequently told another physician that she had experienced severe chest pain that had since resolved). Per her HCP, patient has been having worsening dementia for several years and has repeatedly voiced her desire to die. She was found to have TnT 0.32 (per report, unable to locate lab report in chart) and EKG showing inferior STEMI. Head and neck CT were negative. She was then transferred to the ___. In the ___ initial VS T 97.6 P 72 BP 145/74 RR 16 O2 Sat 97% on RA. Labs were remarkable for TnT 0.32, WBC 11.4, HCO3 21, AG 17, UA with RBCs. EKG showed atrial flutter with ventricular rate 81 bpm with 1 mm STE in III, ?II, and avF. CXR showed old hilar calcification, prominent interstitial markings and a hilar opacity for which infection was in the differential diagnoses. Cardiology was consulted and, after discussion with patient's HCP, it was felt that, in light of goals of care and the patient's likely inability to cooperate during an invasive procedure, coronary angiography and intervention was deferred in favor of medical management. She received ASA 325 mg PO x 1 and was started on a heparin drip. On the floor, patient reported diffuse abdominal pain, which she states has been present for several weeks. She reports chronic shortness of breath. She did not endorse chest pain at the time of admission to Cardiology. She is A+O to self, "mental hospital", "___" and "Obama". She is unable to describe the reason for her hospitalization. Several hours after arrival, patient was found on floor sitting and leaning against bed by PCA (per nursing report, several seconds after bed alarm rang). ROS: On review of systems, patient denies H/O DVT, pulmonary embolus, bleeding at the time of surgery, myalgias, joint pains, cough, hemoptysis, black stools or red stools. She denies recent fevers, chills or rigors. She denies exertional buttock or calf pain. All of the other review of systems were negative. (Note the patient does have dementia.) Cardiac review of systems is notable for absence of chest pain, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, orthopnea, ankle edema, palpitations, syncope or presyncope.

See the flutter waves in lead V1. Compared to the previous tracing of ___ atrial flutter is present. CXR ___: Single frontal view of the chest was obtained. The patient is status post median sternotomy. Calcified mediastinal and hilar nodes are again noted. There is increased prominence of the interstitial markings concerning for pulmonary edema. No large pleural effusion is seen. Right infrahilar opacity along the right heart border is slightly more prominent as compared to the prior study and could be due to consolidation from infection or atelectasis. The cardiac silhouette is mildly enlarged. The aorta is calcified. CXR ___: There are lower lung volumes. There are increasing opacities in the lower lobes consistent with increasing atelectasis. Small bilateral effusions are more conspicuous than before. There is no evident pneumothorax. Mild interstitial edema has increased. Multiple calcified lymph nodes in the mediastinum and hila are again noted. Sternal wires are aligned. IMPRESSION: Worsening pulmonary edema. Of note, evaluation of rib fractures is very limited due to technique and patient body habitus. If clinical persistent concern, dedicated rib series are recommended. ECG ___: Sinus rhythm. Baseline artifact. Consider prior inferior wall myocardial infarction. Compared to the previous tracing of ___ sinus rhythm has appeared. There is variation in precordial lead placement and apparent more prominent lateral T wave changes. Clinical correlation is suggested. Hip/pelvis X-ray ___: In comparison with the outside study of ___, there is little overall change. No definite evidence of acute fracture or dislocation. However, if there is serious clinical concern for an occult fracture, cross-sectional imaging could be obtained. There are mild degenerative changes symmetrically involving the hip joints, essentially within normal limits for patient age. Severe degenerative changes are seen in the lower lumbar spine. KUB ___: Supine radiographs of the abdomen and pelvis demonstrate normal bowel gas pattern. There is no evidence of intraperitoneal free air on limited supine view. There is interval improvement in bibasilar opacities, with residual pulmonary edema at the bases versus possibly underlying interstitial lung disease. Lower median sternotomy wires are noted. IMPRESSION: Normal bowel gas pattern without evidence of ileus or obstruction. CXR ___: Compared to the prior study there is improved aeration bilaterally but there continues to be patchy areas of alveolar infiltrate and increased interstitial markings and ___ B-lines with a small left effusion. IMPRESSION: Improvement in CHF. Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is an ___ yo woman with H/O of atrial flutter/fibrillation (not on anticoagulation), severe mitral regurgitation now S/P bovine MVR, pulmonary hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, polycythemia ___, severe dementia and hypothyroidism who presents with a STEMI. # STEMI: Patient presented in transfer to the ED with evidence of inferior STEMI with elevated troponin, ECG changes, chronic abdominal pain and inconsistent self-reports regarding chest pain (mostly reporting no chest pain, but told one examiner that she had experienced severe chest pain). In addition, her unwitnessed falls might have represented an ischemia-related ventricular arrhythmia. Given discussion regarding goals of care and concerns about patient's ability to cooperate with an invasive procedure, she was treated medically with heparin for 48 hrs, aspirin, clopidogrel, high dose statin and metoprolol. The peak TnT was 0.32 early after presentation (? more subacute presentation) with normal CKMB. She did not report any chest pain during her admission. Echocardiographic evaluation of infarct size and LV systolic function was not obtained due to patient's inability to cooperate with even this non-invasive examination. Due to patient's H/O multiple recent falls, we decided to discontinue clopidogrel on ___ (as the risk of major bleeding on ASA+clopidogrel is no better than the risk on warfarin alone, and she was already deemed not a candidate for oral anticoagulation for her atrial fibrillation). Patient developed some shortness of breath and hypoxemia on HD1. Chest plain film showed some pulmonary vascular congestion consistent with acute diastolic heart failure. She was given furosemide 10 mg IV and her respiratory status improved. She was discharged on ASA, metoprolol succinate, atorvastatin and losartan. # Atrial fibrillation/flutter - CHADS of 5. Discussed anticoagulation with patient's PCP and HCP and confirmed that she was high risk for fall and anticoagulation was contrary to her goals of care. Patient was rate controlled with metoprolol, and her diltiazem was stopped. She was continued on home ASA after short inpatient courses of heparin and clopidogrel. # Major Depression/Severe Dementia: Patient expressed some passive suicidal ideation during her hospitalization. She was placed on 1:1 sitter precautions and did not try to injure herself. She did not report a plan and was evaluated by the psychiatric nurse and determined not to be threat to her self. She denied suicidal ideation by time of discharge. She was continued on home mirtazapine and rivastigmine. At times, the patient refused her pills, especially in the evening. Her medications were changed to once daily preparations dosed in the morning. # Polycythemia ___ thrombocytosis - Patient's platelet counts rose to 848 on day of discharge. Her hydroxyurea was restarted during hospitalization (500 mg PO 3x/week) given concern for recurrent acute coronary syndrome in the setting of thrombocytosis. # S/P Fall: During hospitalization, patient slid out of her geriatric chair (witnessed, no trauma). After getting back in the chair, patient complained of some bilateral hip pain. Plain films were performed that did not show any trauma. As her symptoms improved, CT scanning was not pursued. # Hypothyroidism: Patient was continued on home levothyroxine 50 mcg daily. TSH was checked and within normal limits. # Hematuria: Patient had one episode of hematuria in the setting of aspirin and clopidogrel use. The clopidogrel was discontinued and the hematuria resolved. Follow up UA showed small blood and no evidence of UTI. CODE STATUS: DNR/DNI Health Care Proxy: ___ # ___ ___ issues - Patient should have CBC checked in one week to make sure that platelets improving on hydroxyurea.

Chief Complaint: MRI Abnormalities Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: Lumbar puncture History of Present Illness: The pt is a ___ old woman with history of ulcerative proctitis and a 9- month history of left-sided headaches who is referred for expedited inpatient workup of multifocal intraparenchymal lesions seen on brain MRI. Briefly, the patient begins her history ___ years ago when she slipped and fractured her c-spine. Since then, she recovered but for a time experienced transient right and left sided neck pain that would radiate up into the occiput. About 9 months ago, in ___, she began to develop new headaches, described as "head pain" located on the left temporoparietal region, which tended to occur when she was lying flat rather than standing. There may also be a "strange sensation" over her left ear, which is hard for her to describe. The pain is described as continuous, rather than throbbing, and occurred intermittently, in episodes. However, over the past month or so, they have become much more frequent, and over the past few weeks she has experienced this head pain at least daily. There is no hyperesthesia or numbness when she touches the area. There is no blurred vision or diplopia, or transient visual loss with episodes, or jaw claudication. However, over the past year she has had a small number of migraines preceded by a sensation of flashing lights in her left visual field, responsive to excedrin, which is unusual, as her typical migraines occurred in her ___ and stopped after that. She has developed no other symptoms since, but due to the frequency of these head pains, she sought evaluation and saw Dr. ___ in clinic a few days ago. He ordered brain and C-spine MRI, which revealed diffuse T2 hyperintensities scattered throughout the cortical/subcortical areas including basal ganglia and medulla, as well as within the cervical cord. He called her with results and urged her to present to the ED for expedited workup. She otherwise feels well. On neuro ROS, the pt denies loss of vision, blurred vision, diplopia, dysarthria, dysphagia, lightheadedness, vertigo, tinnitus or hearing difficulty. Denies difficulties producing or comprehending speech. Denies focal weakness, numbness, parasthesiae. No bowel or bladder incontinence or retention. Denies difficulty with gait.

Diffuse subcortical T2/FLAIR white matter hyperintensities involving the bilateral frontotemporoparietal lobes, bilateral basal ganglia and medulla, without evidence of associated enhancement. Many of these lesions demonstrate DWI hyperintensity without clear ADC hypointensity. 2. The differential consideration is broad and may represent sequela of chronic embolic infarcts, vasculitides or potentially inflammatory/infectious process. Sarcoidosis is a consideration, although one would expect nodular enhancement. This is not in a distribution typical for demyelinating process, although this is not excluded. Metabolic disorder is consideration, although less likely given the patient's age. 3. There is a left frontal convexity extra-axial CSF collection measuring approximately 4.1 cm in greatest dimension compatible with an arachnoid cyst exerting mild adjacent local sulcal effacement. 4. Additional findings as described above. ADDENDUM In addition, neoplastic process should be considered. MRI C-Spine ___: IMPRESSION: 1. Subtle hazy T2 hyperintense nonenhancing signal of the cervical cord spanning C2-C3 through C4-C5. Possible regions of abnormal cord signal in the visualized lower cervical and upper thoracic cord. This is nonspecific. Please refer to concurrent MRI head for differential considerations which ranges from sequela of inflammatory/infectious etiology, demyelinating process to embolic/ischemic disease. Neoplastic process while considered less likely given lack of postcontrast enhancement is not entirely excluded. 2. Mild degenerative changes as described above without high-grade spinal canal or neural foraminal narrowing. 3. Additional findings described above. ___ CTA and CTA Neck IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of hemorrhage or infarction. 2. Mild multifocal atherosclerotic disease within the intracranial and cervical vasculature, without high-grade stenosis, occlusion, dissection, or aneurysm. 3. Slight irregularity of the left humeral head is only imaged on the scout. There is a small round, well corticated ossific density in the region of the left shoulder. These findings may be chronic in nature, although a left shoulder radiograph could be considered if clinically indicated. 4. Additional findings, as above. ___ SHOULDER ___ VIEWS NON TRAUMA LEFT IMPRESSION: Mild AC joint degenerative changes. Previously seen rounded radiodensity projecting over the superolateral humeral head is likely external to the patient, on the patient's clothing. ___ Echo IMPRESSION: Normal biventricular cavity sizes with preserved global and regional biventricular systolic function.

As mentioned on MRI report, the differential diagnosis for her findings is quite broad and includes infectious, inflammatory, autoimmune, malignant, and demyelinating etiologies. Also taking into account her presentation with a subacute history of headaches in conjunction with her age, either CNS isolated vasculitis or neurologic involvement of a systemic vasculitis must be ruled out. History of ulcerative colitis could also raise her risk of developing additional autoimmune entities. Will admit for expedited workup including vessel imaging and CSF sampling. ------------------- Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman with ulcerative proctitis and a 9 month history of left sided headaches who was admitted to the Neurology service for evaluation for multifocal intraparenchymal lesions seen on brain MRI. She had a non focal neurologic examination. Differential for her CNS lesions include subacute stroke, infectious, inflammatory, autoimmune, malignant,and demyelinating etiologies. She was started on daily aspirin 81 mg. Her stroke risk factors include the following: 1) DM: A1c 5.7% 2) Mild multifocal atherosclerotic disease within the intracranial and cervical vasculature, without high-grade stenosis, occlusion, dissection, or aneurysm seen on CTA. 3) Hyperlipidemia: LDL 167, Total cholesterol 263, HDL 82; repeat with LDL 119, Total cholesterol 201, HDL 71. Low dose atorvastatin started with plan to monitor for tolerance and increase as an outpatient. 4) Screening for cardiac risk factors: screening echocardiogram showed normal biventricular cavity sizes with preserved global and regional biventricular systolic function. No thrombus or mass visualized. Patient discharged home with cardiac rhythm monitoring to evaluate for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. IMPRESSION: Normal biventricular cavity sizes with preserved global and regional biventricular systolic function. No thrombus or mass visualized. She had a shoulder xray which showed degenerative joint changes. Urinalysis was positive however patient was asymptomatic and reported that her urine is always falsely positive due to pessary. Screening CXR was normal. She underwent a lumbar puncture which has 0 WBC, 0 RBC, and normal protein and glucose. Flow was attempted however because sample was acellular, cytology could not be performed. Patient had a low-pressure headache following the lumbar puncture which was controlled with IV fluids and fioricet. Gabapentin was started for neuropathic pain. Additional serum and CSF studies are pending. AHA/ASA Core Measures for Ischemic Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack 1. Dysphagia screening before any PO intake?

Non focal neurologic exam. Able to ambulate independently. Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. ___, You were hospitalized for evaluation of lesions on your brain MRI of unclear etiology which may be related to infection, inflammation, or small strokes. Although we do not know if you had small strokes, a condition where a blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is blocked by a clot, we still assessed you for medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke. In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk factors. Your risk factors are: - high cholesterol We are changing your medications as follows: Take atorvastatin 20 mg nightly because your cholesterol is elevated. You will discuss increasing this medication with your doctor. Take gabapentin 100 mg nightly for neuropathic pain (your "pain in head"). Take aspirin 81 mg daily. Take fioricet as needed for headache related to lumbar puncture. Do not take with Tylenol. Please take your other medications as prescribed. We also evaluated for cardiac risk factors for stroke. Your echocardiogram was unremarkable. You will be monitored at home with a cardiac monitor to evaluate for atrial fibrillation which can also cause strokes. You had a imaging study called a CT angiogram that showed mild atherosclerotic disease in the blood vessels in your brain. You had a shoulder xray which showed degenerative joint changes. You had a lumbar puncture which showed no concerning cells for inflammation or infection but there are some other specific tests pending. You had a mild "low pressure headache" after the lumbar puncture. You can increase fluid intake, drink caffeine, lay flat and take Fioricet as prescribed to help with this pain. You will follow-up with Dr. ___ further management. Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician as listed below. If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical Services (dialing 911). Please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of these symptoms: - Sudden partial or complete loss of vision - Sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth - Sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to you - Sudden weakness of one side of the body - Sudden drooping of one side of the face - Sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body Sincerely, Your ___ Neurology Team Followup Instructions: ___

EKG showing regular narrow complex tachycardia, likely consistent with atrial tachycardia vs. nodal re-entrant tachycardia. No telemetry strips available showing transition, but converted to sinus prior to arrival to CCU. Patient does note significant anxiety with these episodes, however, rates are faster than would expect from anxiety alone. History of withdrawal symptoms, but per patient, no recent alcohol use but does endorse significant coffee intake which was new for him, and likely the underlying cause for his new arrhythmia. ___ had a brief run of what was likely Atrial Tachycardia on ___, and as such was transitioned from Nadolol to Sotalol with close QTc monitoring and no prolongation. Given this, ___ was discharged on Sotalol with Cardiology and PCP follow ___ should be considered for ablation in the future if ___ has another run of re-entrant tachycardia, though Sotalol and avoiding caffeine may be sufficient. #Anemia Patient with anemia, which appears to be stable from outside hospital (~9) but down from a year ago (per atrius record Hgb 12.2). Per atrius records patient does have history of upper GI bleed. Brown stool in ED but mildly guaiac positive. No overt signs of bleeding. Patient has significant alcohol history so marrow suppression is possible, but other counts are normal. CBC remained stable while inpatient, and patient should have CBC check as outpatient, though no clear signs of bleeding while the patient was in the hospital. #Alcoholic cirrhosis #Cholestasis Patient with extensive alcohol abuse history, and per report, cirrhosis had been diagnosed. ___ notes a hospitalization with intubation in the setting of jaundice at ___ in ___. Elevated tbili on admission. No abd tenderness.

Has failed IV steroid management. Hemodynamically stable. S/p remicade x1 on ___. Still with some blood in the stool and decreasing frequency of bowel movements. ACUTE ISSUES: =============== #Bloody diarrhea #UC Flare On admission, the patient complained of approximately 10 bloody bowel movements per day, anemia (Hgb nadir 9.6), and CRP 16. UC flare confirmed on flexible sigmoidoscopy on ___, with diffuse continuous erythema, granularity, friability, exudate and small ulcers with spontaneous bleeding, concerning for severe UC flare. Our infectious colitis workup was negative, as all stool testing was negative for any parasitic or bacterial infections. We trialed the patient on high-dose IV steroids, however he continued to have upwards of 5 bloody bowel movements per day. Quantiferon gold negative, and hepatitis B Ab positive. At this time per gastroenterology recommendations, we started the patient on IV Remicade on ___. Given the high risk of colectomy in patients who fail IV steroid therapy, we contacted her colorectal surgery colleagues so that they would be able to meet Mr. ___ in the event that he would need a colectomy. There is no surgical intervention indicated at this time. On day of discharge, ___ the patient reported that his bowel movement frequency had decreased to 1 time per day and that it was "only with a couple drops of blood. At the time of discharge, he will be sent home on prednisone 40 mg p.o. daily with a taper plan as outlined in the discharge instructions. He will need to see gastroenterology in ___ weeks and will also need to be set up for Remicade IV as an outpatient. # Iron deficiency anemia During the hospitalization was noted that the patient was slightly anemic with a H/H of 10.9/35.7. We initially were concerned about acute GI bleed losses secondary to the bloody diarrhea. This is the most likely source of the patient's anemia. As we have significantly decreased the amount of blood in the patient's stool, we suspect that this will improve. There is no evidence of hemodynamic instability. The patient has not required any blood products throughout stay. It may be worthwhile for the patient to pursue IV iron infusions as an outpatient given ferritin 14. # Transitional issues – Patient will need follow-up with gastroenterology and PCP – Patient will need to be set up for IV Remicade infusions as an outpatient – Please check CBC to ensure resolution of the anemia, and consider iron supplementation/infusion as outpatient. Discharge Hgb 10.9 – We would recommend vaccination for influenza yearly as well as pneumococcus influenza. - Patient at increased risk of colorectal cancer, screening TBD by GI and PCP ___ on ___: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Findings consistent with early subacute left thalamic infarct. 4. Chronic right PCA distribution infarct. 5. Significant atherosclerotic narrowing bilateral vertebral arteries at their origins and V4 segments. Moderately narrowed proximal basilar artery. Moderately attenuated left P3 segment. 6. Approximately 45% narrowing left proximal ICA. Moderate narrowing right supraclinoid ICA. Moderate narrowing single right M2 branch. MR ___ w/o contrast ___: IMPRESSION: 1. Acute to early subacute moderately extensive infarcts in the left PCA distribution, right cerebellum, and an additional punctate infarct left cerebellum. 2. Few punctate foci of microhemorrhage in the right cerebellum, follow-up ___ CT within 24 hours recommended. 3. Chronic right occipital lobe infarct. 4. Moderate brain parenchymal atrophy.. 5. Inflammatory changes of the paranasal sinuses as described above. CT ___ w/o Contrast ___: IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of interval intraparenchymal hemorrhage. 2. Multiple parenchymal hypodensities within the left PCA distribution and right cerebellum. The punctate infarct in the left cerebellum identified on MR is not well visualized the current study. 3. Overall these lesions are stable in size and appearance as compared to the prior MR, but have increased in size as compared to the ___ CT dated ___. 4. No new regions suspicious for infarct identified. 5. Chronic infarct in the right occipital lobe again identified. Echocardiogram on ___: The left atrial volume index is normal. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The left ventricular cavity size is normal. Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF = 60%). However, the apex is hypokinetic with focal akinesis. No masses or thrombi are seen in the left ventricle. Tissue Doppler imaging suggests an increased left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP>18mmHg). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Moderate (2+) mitral regurgitation is seen. [Due to acoustic shadowing, the severity of mitral regurgitation may be significantly UNDERestimated.] There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ year old with history of HTN, HLD, CAD s/p CABG and bare metal stent, and prior CVA with acute monocular vision loss (suspected CRAO) who was admitted to the Neurology stroke service with aphasia and right-sided weakness and found to have multifocal ischemic infarcts in posterior circulation territories (R cerebellum, L occipital and L thalamus). Given its location in multiple posterior circulation territories, we feel his stroke was mostly due to a proximal source e.g. cardiac embolism from apical ventricular akinesis as visualized on echo. For that reason, we will start him on Apixaban for anticoagulation. His deficits improved greatly prior to discharge. He still had significant R-sided motor dyscordination with minimal speech impairment at time of discharge. He will continue rehab at a rehab center. His stroke risk factors include the following: 1) Intracranial atherosclerosis of both anterior and posterior circulation. 2) Hyperlipidemia: well controlled on Atorvastatin 80mg with LDL 50 3) Hypertension 4) Cardiac disease - CAD, abnormal cardiac wall motion. An echocardiogram showed apical areas of hypokinesis and akinesis. No thrombus was visualized, though the study was limited. During his stay, he also had urine and blood cultures sent after developing a self-limiting acute episode of confusion. Urine culture was negative and final blood culture results pending at time of discharge. He remained afebrile without other changes in mental status and further infectious workup was not pursued. He also exhibit symptoms of depression, for which he was started on Fluoxetine 10mg daily. Transitional issues: - Anticoagulation: He is being discharged on both Aspirin 325mg daily and Plavix 75mg daily. On ___ (2 weeks after stroke), he should START Apixaban 5mg PO BID, REDUCE his Aspirin dose to 81mg daily, and STOP Plavix. Apixaban prior authorization was initiated on ___ and should be processed within 24 hours. - HTN: His anti-hypertensive regimen was reduced during his admission. He was maintained on Metoprolol 25mg BID and Valsartan 160mg BID prior to discharge. His Valsartan-HCTZ is to be resumed on discharge, and his Metoprolol dose may be increased as indicated with BP monitoring. - Depression: He exhibited symptoms of depression after his stroke. He was started on Fluoxetine 10mg PO daily on ___. Please INCREASE his dose to 20mg PO daily on ___. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list may be inaccurate and requires futher investigation. 1. Clopidogrel 75 mg PO DAILY 2. Atorvastatin 80 mg PO QPM 3.

The brain is the part of your body that controls and directs all the other parts of your body, so damage to the brain from being deprived of its blood supply can result in a variety of symptoms. Stroke can have many different causes, so we assessed you for medical conditions that might raise your risk of having stroke. In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to modify those risk factors. Your risk factors are: - Hypertension - High cholesterol - Heart disease We also started on a new medication, Fluoxetine, to treat symptoms of depression. Depression is very common after a stroke, and you should follow up with your PCP about how best to manage this moving forward. We are changing your medications as follows: - Start taking Apixaban (Eliquis) 5mg twice daily on ___. - When you start Apixaban (1) DECREASE your dose of Aspirin from 325mg daily to 81mg daily. (2) STOP taking Clopidogrel (Plavix) - Continue taking Fluoxetine 10mg daily. Increase your dose to 20mg daily on ___. - We reduced your blood pressure medications while you were admitted. Your doctor ___ increase/resume your doses as indicated to keep your blood pressure under good control. Please take your other medications as prescribed. Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician as listed below. If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur, please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of these symptoms: - Sudden partial or complete loss of vision - Sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth - Sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to you - Sudden weakness of one side of the body - Sudden drooping of one side of the face - Sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body Sincerely, Your ___ Neurology Team Followup Instructions: ___

Ability to obtain history is limited by decreased speech output from patient, who is acutely anxious and tearful during exam. Per report, she was in her usual state of health until 8:30am this morning when she developed acute numbness and heaviness on the right side of her body, beginning in the right arm and then traveling to the right side of her face. Leg was not involved. Around this time, she noticed that her speech seemed "slowed", though she did not have difficulty understanding what others were saying to her. She called ___ and was brought to an OSH in ___. She was transferred to ___ ED for further evaluation. Of note she was admitted to ___ Stroke service from ___ for acute stroke ___ sympatomatic left carotid stenosis. On ___ and ___ she had several minutes of right hand and forearm numbness. On ___ she had four minutes of right hand and forearm numbness radiating to the right face. She was taken to ___ and then tranferred to ___ on ___. MRI showed three small L posterior frontal subacute infarcts (in MCA/ACA watershed) and also R posterior mesial parietal lesion (could be distal small PCA stroke). MRA showed three problems in the left ICA: (1) kinking after the bifurcation that causes a moderate degree stenosis; (2) about 1cm more distally there is at least a 80% calcified stenosis; (3) another 1 cm distally there is a concentric calcification that stretches to the skull base; this last concentric calcification does not cause any moderate or high grade stenosis. MRA also showed atherosclerotic lesion at L vertebral artery origin. Carotid ultrasound rated the stenosis at 80-99%. TTE showed normal EF of 60% and no intracardiac clot or PFO. She was seen by Vascular Surgery who decided to hold off on intervention (were considering CEA vs. carotid stent vs. connecting the ECA to the ICA). Ultimately decided to maximize her medical management by adding Plavix to her home Aspirin. She was followed by Hematology for this given her history of vWD. Crestor 40mg (maximal dose) was continued. Her antihypertensive meds were decreased slightly (continued amlodipine 5mg daily but decreased lisinopril to 10mg daily) to optimize perfusion distal to the lesions.

Left internal carotid artery stenosis measuring 65% per NASCET criteria involving a long segment, however, the majority of the entire cervical ICA. This has been stented with two separate stents to good resolution to now 13% stenosis of the left ICA. There was some reactive vasospasm to the Spider distal embolic protection device within the distal cervical ICA that periodically caused worsening of her exam; however, with antispasmodic agents, her exam markedly improved and is now at her baseline. 2. No evidence of thromboembolic complications. Brief Hospital Course: HOSPITAL COURSE: ___ is a ___ year old woman with a history of ___ disease type 1, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and recent admission to the Neurology Stroke service for several small left-sided strokes and one small right-sided stroke in the setting of severe left ICA stenosis (unable to stent or perform carotid endarterectomy due to complex anatomy), who re-presented to an outside hospital with acute right face and arm numbness and weakness (similar to last admission) and decreased speech speed/fluency (new, unexplained symptoms) concerning for recurrent stroke. Pt was put on heparin gtt while awaiting neurosurgery recommendations. Exam had functional decreased speech fluency and giveway weakness, otherwise stable subtle right upper motor neuron weakness pattern (similar to last admission). Repeat MRI showed very small progression of prior left-sided infarcts, and no new areas of injury. Pt most likely had mild hypotensive episode causing decreased perfusion resulting in progression and return of prior symptoms. Pt did not have a recurrence of her prior stroke symptoms after admission, and her speech and muscle weakness symptoms resolved spontaneously after discussing with pt the contribution stress often has to physical symptoms. Neurosurgery was consulted and gave the pt a second opinion regarding invasive management of carotid artery stenosis/calcification, the likely cause of her original stroke. Per Neurosurgery recs she was switched from heparin drip to aspirin 325/Plavix 150 for 3 days prior to going to the OR for stent placement in her left ICA. Pt is now stable and doing well post-op. Presenting symptoms have completely resolved. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== - Pt being discharged on ASA 325/Plavix 75, to be continued at least until pt follows up in clinic with neurosurgeon, Dr. ___, in 4 weeks. - Pt has f/u appt w/ Dr. ___ of ___ Neurology-Stroke - Pt has f/u appt w/ Dr. ___ at the Hematology Coagulation clinic for further evaluation and tx of her ___ ___ disease - Pt was placed back on her home anti-hypertensive meds prior to discharge, in order to prevent carotid hyperperfusion (common issue after CEAs or stents as carotid sinuses lose ability to autoregulate BP resulting in HA) - On imaging of the carotid pt was found incidentally to have a 6mm nodule/nodules in the thyroid of unclear significance.

Severe compression fracture of the T12 vertebral body. Moderate compression fractures of the T9 and L2 vertebral bodies. Brief Hospital Course: The patient was admitted to the ICU for BP control and monitoring while she was evaluated for possible surgical intervention. Her chest pain improved with a decrease in her blood pressure. Due to a number of reasons, the patient's thoracic aneurysm was determined to be one that could not be repaired with an endovascular approach -- current grafts were not amenable to her difficult anatomy and tortuosity made all theoretical approaches not feasible. Furthermore, all available grafts contained nickel, to which the patient was allergic. These concerns were discussed with the patient and her family. The patient declined consideration of open repair, and elective open repair was not recommended given complexity of her anatomy and likelihood of complications. The patient presented to the hospital with a MOLST form confirming DNR/DNI status. Numerous conversations with the patient and her family members were had during her hospitalization to confirm her code status. All conversations emphasized that aneurysm rupture, without attempt at repair, would result in death. She understands very clearly and expressed her comfort with the decision not to repair the aneurysm, "I'll stick with what I've got". The patient was transitioned from IV BP control to an oral regimen with the assistance of vascular medicine. Her home medications have been altered to bring patient to a goal SBP of less than 130. Patient will require follow up with her home cardiologist for BP monitoring and medication management. She encouraged to call the vascular surgery office with any further questions. Patient is discharged to a short term rehab in stable condition. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

The patient initially presented to ___ on ___ after experiencing an episode of chest tightness and pressure at home. This occurred at rest, radiated to her jaw and neck. It was associated with mild lightheadedness, shortness of breath, and diaphoresis. Her pain improved without intervention. She had similar episodes in the past with periods of AFib. However, given concern for cardiac etiology, her daughter brought her to the ED for evaluation. On presentation to the ED she was noted to be leukopenic to 2K. Per the patient's daughter, her WBC had been 4K several months prior at a PCP ___. During her ___ admission, the patient underwent a nuclear stress test that was normal and had negative cardiac enzymes. Hematology was consulted for her leukopenia. Dr ___ a bone marrow biopsy on ___. Shortly thereafter the patient was discharged home given clinical stability. Preliminary smear review from the peripheral blood and marrow aspirate showed leukopenia, but no blasts. On ___, preliminary FISH showed a significant population of myeloid blasts (67%), later seen on a concentrated smear. The immunophenotype was potentially concerning for APML, however preliminary FISH was negative for PML/RARA. She was referred to this facility for evaluation and treatment. The bone marrow is currently undergoing FISH and PCR testing. On arrival to the ED, the patient denies any acute complaints, no chest pain, no shortness of breath. No bleeding, though some bruising at phlebotomy sites. She was anxious on arrival to the ED but rapidly quieted. EKG noted grouped sinus beats, no AFib.

Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF = 65%). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The diameters of aorta at the sinus, ascending and arch levels are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve appears structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. The left ventricular inflow pattern suggests impaired relaxation. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion. ___ CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST No hemorrhage, infarction or fracture. ___: CT SINUS 1. Well-aerated paranasal sinuses. 2.

The tip of the catheter terminates in the right atrium. The catheter is ready for use. PATHOLOGY ___ SPECIMEN: BONE MARROW ASPIRATE AND CORE BIOPSY (CONSULT SLIDES ___;FROM ___ PROCEDURE ___: ACUTE PROMYELOCYTIC LEUKEMIA, SEE NOTE. Note: Flow cytometry studies performed at ___, ___, demonstrated that 67% of cells in the aspirate are positive for CD13, CD33, CD117, CD15 (variable), CD38 (moderated)and CD64 (partial dim), and are negative for CD34, ___, and Mo2. In addition, cytogenics revealed the presence of a t (15;17)(p24;q12) translocation and a "PML-RARA"signal by FISH analysis. This results confirm the diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia. Bone marrow cytogenetics ___ Every metaphase bone marrow cell examined appeared to be karyotypically normal. No cells were found with the previously observed translocation involving chromosomes 15 and 17 that is diagnostic of acute promyelocytic leukemia. However, FISH has demonstrated the presence of a small population of PML/RARA positive interphase cells with segmented nuclei. FISH: 6.5% of the interphase bone marrow cells examined had an abnormal probe signal pattern consistent with the PML/RARA gene rearrangement brought about by the t(15;17)(q24;q21) diagnostic of acute promyelocytic leukemia. These cells had segmented nuclei. Bone marrow immunophenotyping ___ 10-color analysis with linear side scatter vs. CD45 gating was used to evaluate for leukemia. The sample viability done by 7-AAD is 96%. CD45-bright, low side-scatter gated lymphocytes compris approximately 60% of total analyzed events. B cells comprise approximately 6% of lymphoid-gated events. No abnormal events are identified in the "blast gate." CD34 positive blast cells comprise <0.5% of total gated events. INTERPRETATION Diagnostic immunophenotypic features of involvement by leukemia are not seen in specimen. Correlation with clinical and cytogenetic findings and morphology (see separate pathology report ___ is recommended. Flow cytometry immunophenotyping may not detect all lymphomas as due to topography, sampling or artifacts of sample preparation. Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is a ___ year old female, ___, with history of breast cancer s/p lumpectomy and RT, paroxysmal afib on chronic anticoagulation with warfarin, recently admitted to ___ for chest pain, found to have APML, treated with ATRA and arsenic. # APML: The patient initially presented to OSH with chest pain. There, she was found to be anemic and leukopenic. Per outside report of bone marrow biopsy, preliminary review of peripheral blood and marrow aspirate showed leukopenia, but no blasts. ___ preliminary FISH showed myeloid blasts (67%), phenotype concerning for APML however prelim FISH negative for PML/RARA, per report final karyotype positive for APML. The patient was started on ATRA (___). She was started on arsenic on ___. She was treated with prednisone during her therapy which was tapered and ultimately discontinued. She was started on atovaquone, acyclovir, and allopurinol for prophylaxis. Allopurinol was discontinued as uric acid remained stable. During hospitalization, the patient had no evidence of TLS or DIC. Aresnic dosing was monitored with telemetry and frequent ECGs. The patient had some QTc prolongation for which arsenic was held x1 day. She otherwise completed a ___ of ATRA/arsenic. Negative bone marrow from ___. Her ANC was 450 on day of discharge, so she was discharged on ciprofloxacin ppx. The patient should follow-up with hematology/oncology for further management. # Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: The patient had a history of pAF on rate control with metoprolol and anticoagulation with warfarin. The patient was found to have intermittent episodes of RVR during her admission. The patient's metoprolol was uptitrated to 100mg PO TID. Due to persistent episodes of RVR, the patient was evaluated by cardiology who suggested addition of flecainide for rhythm control. This medication was not started as it was found to be category X interaction with ATRA, which the patient would require for a long period of time for treatment of her APML. The patient's warfarin was initially held due to thrombocytopenia. She was restarted on home regimen warfarin with lovenox bridge (80mg subcutaneous BID). The patient's aspirin was held on admission due to bleeding risk but was continued prior to discharge. The patient's atorvastatin 80mg PO qday was held due to concern for LFT abnormalities with ATRA and arsenic. The patient should f/u with oncology for consideration of restarting this medication. # Diarrhea: The patient had some episodes of loose stool. She was evaluated with c diff studies x2 which were negative. The patient was managed symptomatically with loperamide and this resolved prior to discharge. # Elevated transaminases: The patient was found to have mildly elevated LFTs intermittently during her admission. She was evaluated with hepatitis serologies which were negative for active infection. Transaminitis was thought to be secondary to NAFLD vs. medication side effect. The patient should f/u with oncology and outpatient providers for further management. # Depression/anxiety: The patient's citalopram 10mg PO qday was held due to concern for worsening QTc prolongation with arsenic. The patient should f/u with oncology to determine whether this medication can be restarted. The patient was continued on home wellbutrin SR 150mg PO qday. Her anxiety greatly improved on 0.25mg clonazepam twice daily and she was discharge on this medication. # Diabetes: The patient's glipizde was held and she was started on ISS while hospitalized. After discharge, the patient should restart home glipizide. She was prescribed glucometer and given teaching to monitor blood sugar post-discharge. # Dry eyes: The patient was started on artificial tears. # Memory loss: While hospitalized, the patient and family reported that the patient had memory loss. This was found to be chronic in nature, unchanged over the past several years. The patient should follow up with outpatient providers for further evaluation and management.

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: F Service: NEUROLOGY Allergies: Iodine-Iodine Containing / steroids Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: L-sided weakness and confusion Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: none History of Present Illness: Ms. ___ is a ___ female with history of metastatic melanoma s/p HD IL-2 with multiple oligo-metastatic recurrences (including brain) s/p multiple resections, ipilimumab and cyberknife now with new poorly differentiated spindle cell neoplasm of right parietal brain likely gliosarcoma s/p resection who presents with left-sided weakness. The patient was seen by Neuro/Onc two days ago for follow-up and was noted to have increasing weakness of the left arm and leg as well as a visual field defect on the left. An MRI for radiation planning on the same day revealed disease recurrence at the surgical margins in the right parietal lobe. The patient was started on dexamethasone 4mg daily and celocoxib 200mg BID as well as keppra. The patient and family report that over the past 2 weeks she has had worsening left-sided weakness, which had previously been much improved after tumor resection. She presented to the ED because the weakness has now worsened to the point that it is difficult for her to walk and she has fallen multiple times. She endorses headache and feeling dizzy upon standing. The patient's husband also reports that the patient often seems unaware of things going on to her left side. She denies any other new complaints. On arrival to the ED, initial vitals were 97.4 70 167/85 18 98% RA. Exam was notable for left-sided neglect, right-sided nystagums, and decreased left-sided strength. Labs were notable for WBC 11.5, H/H 9.___.5, Plt 253, Na 143, K 3.3, BUN/Cr ___, and UA with large leuks, positive nitrite, and 45 WBCs. Urine culture was sent. Head CT showed increase in edema and mass effect from the right temporoparietal mass causing progression of leftward midline shift and increase in effacement of the interpeduncular cistern. She had an acute mental status change at 23:30 where she became more somnolent, head CT without change from earlier, and she had improved in mental status after ___ minutes. Dr. ___ was consulted who recommended 10mg IV dex x 1, increasing dex to 4mg BID, consideration of more urgent radiation, and no need to contact Neurosurgery regarding brain imaging. Patient was given dexamethasone 10mg IV. Prior to transfer vitals were 98.0 65 156/75 16 98% RA. On arrival to the floor, patient has no acute issues or concerns. She denies fevers/chills, night sweats, vision changes, dizziness/lightheadedness, shortness of breath, cough, hemoptysis, chest pain, palpitations, abdominal pain, nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, hematemesis, hematochezia/melena, dysuria, hematuria, and new rashes.

There is now approximately 13 mm of leftward midline shift (previously 11 mm), and effacement of the interpeduncular cistern has likely increased. The remainder of the basilar cisterns appear patent however. Mass effect on the right lateral ventricle is similar. ___ CT HEAD W CON Overall unchanged findings when compared with study performed 4 hours prior with a edema and mass effect from right temporal parietal mass and 12 mm of leftward midline shift with effacement of the interpeduncular cistern and right lateral ventricle. ___ EEG This telemetry captured no pushbutton activations. It showed a normal background in wakefulness but with prominent focal slowing in the right posterior quadrant, suggesting a subcortical dysfunction there, possibly structural in origin. There was minimal slowing on the left. There were a few sharp waves near the right hemisphere slowing, but no overtly epileptiform abnormalities or repetitive discharges. There were no electrographic seizures. ___ EEG This telemetry captured no pushbutton activations. It showed a normal waking background over the left hemisphere but prominent focal slowing over the right hemisphere, as on the previous recording. The right hemisphere slowing indicates a large area of subcortical dysfunction. Recording cannot specify the etiology, but vascular disease is among the common causes at this age. Structural lesions are also possible. There were no epileptiform features or electrographic seizures. ___ PICC LINE REPLACEMENT Successful placement of a right 45 cm basilic approach double lumen PowerPICC with tip in the cavoatrial junction. The line is ready to use. Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is a ___ female with history of metastatic melanoma s/p HD IL-2 with multiple oligo-metastatic recurrences (including brain) s/p multiple resections, ipilimumab and cyberknife now with new metastatic lesion (melanoma vs poorly differentiated spindle cell neoplasm likely gliosarcoma) in right parietal brain s/p resection who presented with left-sided weakness. # Left-Sided Weakness due to Cerebral Edema Patient had sub-acute decline over the last 2 weeks due to worsening disease. Head CT showed increased edema and worsening midline shift. She was given IV dexamethasone 10mg x1 and her home dexamethasone was uptitrated to dexamethasone 4mg PO q6h, eventually tapered to q12h. In addition, she was given a bevacizumab infusion on ___ to control cerebral edema. Initially planned for 6 weeks of radiation given pathology of previously resected brain lesion was likely gliosarcoma. However, later revised to likely metastatic melanoma and she received 5 fractions total (___). Her course was c/b mechanical fall towards her left side after attempting to stand from chair unassisted on ___. Staff was present seconds later, she denied head trauma, and she had no exam changes. Throughout the hospital course her mental status and strength returned to baseline though with persistent though improving left-sided neglect. She was continued on keppra and celecoxib at home doses. Upon discharge, her dex was further tapered to 4mg in AM and 2mg in afternoon, with plans to continue decrease at appointment on ___ w neuro-onc. # Toxic Metabolic Encephalopathy She initially presented with increased somnolence and difficulty with days of the week backwards, likely ___ increasing cerebral edema as above but also may have an element of toxic metabolic encephalopathy in the setting of UTI. EEG with no e/o seizures but did show non-specific slowing c/w encephalopathy. Mental status improved throughout hospitalization and she was back at her baseline by discharge. # ESBL UTI Positive UA, culture results showing E coli, ESBL. Treated w 10-day course of meropenem 500 mg IV Q6H (___). # Metastatic Melanoma On re-eval by path, right parietal brain lesion is a new melanoma met rather than previously thought poorly differentiated spindle cell neoplasm/probable gliosarcoma. She received ___ fractions of radiation while inpatient. # Leukocytosis Likely secondary to steroids vs. infection. Improved after initiation of IV antibiotics. CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== # Stage III CKD: Baseline Cr 1.2-1.3. Remained at baseline while in-house. # Anemia: At baseline. No evidence of bleeding. # Hypothyroidism: ___ ___ 0.18, re-checked while inpatient and was still low at 0.26 w normal (1.7) free T4. Can be discussed as transitional issue, reassuring htat FT4 is within normal limits. Her home levothyroxine was continued. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== [] Patient discharged w PICC to continue chemotherapy on ___. [] Follow-up with Dr. ___ ___ for Bevacizumab infusion scheduling [] Dexamethasone (steroid) tapered upon discharge to 4mg in AM and 2mg in afternoon. She will remain at this dose until her appointment w her neuro-oncologist on ___, when this will likely be tapered further. [] MRI in 1 month and neurology follow-up [] Follow-up with Radiation oncology [] Recheck ___ as an outpatient in approx. 6 weeks to ensure patient is at correct dose of synthroid [] Patient worked with our physical therapists who recommended discharge to rehab given L-sided weakness and neglect, and need for 24 hour supervision. We educated her and her husband on the importance of rehab and why it would be better and safer than home. However, she chose to return home and get services in the house. Her husband promised he would be able to provide 24 hour supervision that patient needs. She is at increased risk of falls and other injuries because of this.

An ECHO was down which showed mild RV dilation with borderline function, moderate RA dilation, ___ ___, normal LV size and function, 1+ AR/MR ad moderate pulmonary hypertension with significant pulmonary regurgitation. The patient was evaluated by cardiology, who felt that the episode was unlikely to be secondary to arrhythmia and more likely related to decreased cardiac output in the setting of exercise and pulmonary fibrosis. Should this occur again, a reveal monitor could be considered. The patient was given full dose aspirin, metoprolol and atorvastatin 80 mg due to concern for acute coronary syndrome, however he ruled out with two negative troponins and one CK-MB. The patient was monitor on telemetry for 24 hours without event. Our differential further included neurocardiogenic, orthostatic, , and neurologic. It is possible that this was an orthostatic event because it occured after he went from sitting to standing and the patient reported low PO intake prior to the event. Considering his ECHO findings of pulmonary hypertension, it is more likely that the syncope was related to decreased cardiac output in the setting of pulmonary hypertension and pulmonic and tricuspid valve regurgitation. A CTA was performed due to concern for pulmonary embolism and a small pulmonary embolism was found that was unlikely to be hemodynamically compromising or related to syncopal episode. # Pulmonary Embolism: CT Chest revealed a pulmonary embolism in the lower lobe segmental artery with chronic appearing linear filling defect in a right lower lobe segmental artery after a D-Dimer returned at 1428. The patient is stable, non-diaphoretic in no acute distress. He reports no chest pain, changes to his baseline shortness of breath or changes to cough or difficulty breathing. This is most likely not associated with the syncope (above) because it is not a massive PE. The patient was started on enoxaparin 90 mg SC Q12H and warfarin 5 mg PO/NG. He has been referred to his primary care physician ___. ___ in ___, ___ for monitoring of his INR (goal 2.0 - 3.0) and management of his anti-coagulation therapy. He is scheduled to see Dr. ___ on ___ at 2:15PM. Dr. ___ is aware of the need to monitor the INR and his office has confirmed the ability to do this. # Dyspnea and cough: Patient has crackles on exam, and CXR revealing cardiomegaly and pulmonary edema. CTA chest revealed increased subpleural interstitial opacities with basilar traction bronchiectasis compatible with known fibrotic interstitial lung disease with accompanying likely reactive lymphadenopathy. Considering his chronic cough and dyspnea on exertion for ___ years, this may be idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, although honeycombing was not appreciated on CT scan. Also on the differential is right sided heart failure secondary to pulmonary disease (cor pulmonale). He was given Furosemide 20 mg PO/NG DAILY and his in's and out's were monitored with daily weights. There was no change from his baseline admission crackles during his inpatient stay. He should follow up out patient with his pulmonologist about the latest CT and CXR findings. # left subcondylar fracture: During the syncopal event, Mr. ___ fell and hit his jaw and face on the ground. He was seen by oro-maxilla facial surgery; he has stable, reproducible occlusion, with no jaw deviation and at the time did not require to be placed in maxillo-mandibular fixation. He will continue on full liquid diet for two-four weeks. While he refused to return to ___ to see a ___ oral surgeon that we could schedule, we have strongly encouraged him to follow-up with his local oral surgeon upon return home within 2 weeks, especially for possible MMF if noted jaw deviation or change in occlusion. # anterion nasal spine fracture / dentoalveolar fracture with intrusion of teeth #7,8,9 - upon obtaining verbal and written consent, anesthetised with 5ml 2% Lidocaine with 1:100,000 epi, teeth #6,7, and 8 repositioned and splinted; repeated panoramic x-ray. Recommend to keep splint for 2 weeks. Patient informed of poor prognosis for these teeth and that they might require root canal treatment or possible extraction in the future. Require close follow-up with oral surgeon, liquid diet and meticulous oral hygiene. Mr. ___ has had the option to follow up with Dr. ___, consulting oral surgeon, at her clinic at ___, ___, ___, ___ however he has refused and will see his home oral surgeon within two weeks. # HTN: While inpatient he was normotensive. We continued home aliskiren with hydrochlorothiazide and changed diltiazem to a beta blocker while in house. He will continue his home medications at discharge. INACTIVE ISSUES: # Hyperlipidemia: stable while in house. Continue on home meds. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: # ANTICOAGULATION: Mr. ___ will need to be followed by his home PCP's office for management of anticoagulation for the pulmonary embolism. The patient was started on enoxaparin 90 mg SC Q12H and warfarin 5 mg PO/NG. He has been referred to his primary care physician ___ in ___, ___ for monitoring of his INR (goal 2.0 - 3.0) and management of his anti-coagulation therapy. He is scheduled to see Dr. ___ on ___ at 2:15PM. Dr. ___ is aware of the need to monitor the INR and his office has confirmed the ability to do this. # ORAL LACERATION AND FRACTURE MANAGEMENT: Mr. ___ will need to follow up closely with an oral surgeon about the facial fractures he obtained during his syncopal event. He has refused to return to ___ to see Dr. ___ in her Oral Surgery Clinic because it is too far from him home. He has confirmed that he will see his local oral surgeon in ___ within 2 weeks and that he already has an appointment with them in 10 days. We have strongly counseled him about follow up with his oral surgeon to avoid any complications. # ?INTERSTITIAL PULMONARY FIBROSIS: Mr. ___ was told to follow up with his pulmonologist about his chronic cough and dyspnea on exertion. CTA of the chest suggested that this may be an interstitial process and he will need management. Medications on Admission: Preadmission medications listed are correct and complete.

The patient's blood sugar was managed with insulin gtt and ___ was called for consult. On ___, the patient underwent robot-assisted minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy, golden fiducials placement, which went well without complication (please see the Operative Note for details). After a brief, uneventful stay in the PACU, the patient arrived on the floor NPO, on IV fluids, on insulin gtt, with a foley catheter, and Dilaudid PCA for pain control. The patient was hemodynamically stable. Neuro: The patient received Dilaudid PCA with good effect and adequate pain control. When tolerating oral intake, the patient was transitioned to oral pain medications. Patient developed severe headache and medicine was consulted. Patient was treated with coffee and Ibuprofen. She was off Clonazepam post op and it was restarted when she tolerated PO. Patient's headache improved after Klonopin was restarted. CV: The patient remained stable from a cardiovascular standpoint; vital signs were routinely monitored. Pulmonary: The patient was required supplemental O2 post op to maintain her O2 sats within normal limits. Post op CXR revealed low lung volume and atelectasis. Good pulmonary toilet, early ambulation and incentive spirrometry were encouraged throughout hospitalization. Patient was able to wean off supplemental O2, repeat CXR demonstrated improvement in aeration compared to prior. GI: Post-operatively, the patient was made NPO with IV fluids. Diet was advanced when appropriate, which was well tolerated. Patient's intake and output were closely monitored, and IV fluid was adjusted when necessary. Electrolytes were routinely followed, and repleted when necessary. JP drain was removed prior to discharge as amylase level and output were low. GU: The patient has a history of UTI. Her UA was sent secondary to elevated WBC. UA was borderline and patient was treated for UTI with Cipro x 5 day base on her history. Urine culture was negative. ID: The patient's white blood count and fever curves were closely watched for signs of infection. The patient had elevated WBC though to be secondary to splenectomy and CLL. Wound were evaluated daily and no signs or symptoms of infection were noticed. The patient received post splenectomy vaccines prior to discharge. Endocrine: The patient with history of poor controlled diabetes was admitted day prior her scheduled operation for blood sugar control. Her blood glucose was 500s on admission. She was started on insulin gtt and endocrinology was consulted. Post operatively patient was managed with insulin gtt, which was weaned off on POD 1. Patient was managed with long and short acting insulin during hospitalization. Dose of the long acting insulin and sliding scale insulin were titrated prior to discharge, patient's blood sugars remained within normal level. She was advised to follow up with ___ and was provided with contact information in order to schedule a follow up. Hematology: As above. The patient's complete blood count was examined routinely; no transfusions were required. Prophylaxis: The patient received subcutaneous heparin and venodyne boots were used during this stay; was encouraged to get up and ambulate as early as possible. At the time of discharge, the patient was doing well, afebrile with stable vital signs.

STUDIES: ___ CXR The new pulmonary nodules are noted in the upper, left lower and right lung fields, and correspond to pulmonary nodules demonstrated on the PET/CT from ___, with potentially no substantial difference in size, although the comparison is limited. No definite new consolidations demonstrated to suggest the reason for interval development of leukocytosis. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. MRI HEAD ___ Multiple small foci of increased signal predominantly cortically based, best seen on the diffusion imaging without surrounding edema. Given these imaging characteritics, these are most consistent with embolic infarcts, new since the prior exam. However given the clinical history, recommend a repeat MRI with contrast if possible after resolution of acute renal failure for more definitive evaluation of possible metastatic disease. CT CHEST non con ___ New subtle opacity in the right lower lobe, potentially caused by pneumonia. Known adenocarcinoma with extensive bilateral lung metastases, several larger nodules, as well as mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Known lytic and sclerotic bone lesions. Renal U/S ___: No evidence of hydronephrosis or nephrolithiasis. Duplex configuration of the right kidney. Partially seen hepatic and splenic hilum metastasis. Prostatomegaly. AORTIC U/S ___: No evidence of abdominal aortic aneurysm. Atherosclerotic plaques seen without significant stenosis. TTE ___: The left atrium is elongated. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size. Regional left ventricular wall motion is normal. Left ventricular systolic function is hyperdynamic (EF>75%). The estimated cardiac index is normal (>=2.5L/min/m2). Tissue Doppler imaging suggests a normal left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP<12mmHg). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. On apical 4-chamber views (clips 58,59, 71, 72, and on RV inflow views), there is an echodense and highly mobile structure (measuring 0.9 x 1.1cm) about 2 cm inferior to the tricuspid valve which may be highly redundant chordae and prominent papillary muscle- however, a right ventricular mass/thrombus cannot be excluded. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with preserved biventricular cavity size and hyperdynamic global/regional systolic function. Mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. Possible right ventricular thrombus/mass (see text). ___ FDG TUMOR IMAGING (PET) Diffuse visceral, soft tissue, and osseous metastatic disease involving chest, abdomen and pelvis, new since ___ CT exam. No focal FDG uptake is noted within the esophagus. Large, partially necrotic lesions in the liver, but disease primary can not be determined. The lack of abnormal esophageal uptake argues against an esophageal primary. Brief Hospital Course: ___ with recent diagnosis of metastatic adenocarcinoma (of likely pancreatic [vs. biliary] etiology given tumor markers) with metastatic disease to liver, spine, chest, and pelvis based on PET scan dated ___ who presented for DVT but was found to have numerous other issues during his hospitalization. More specifically, he was found to have hypotension due to hypovolemia, pneumonia (treated successfully with a 7 day course of levofloxacin), acute renal failure (prerenal in nature, responsive to fluids), hypovolemic hyponatremia (resolved with fluids), and labs suggestive of DIC without any evidence of bleeding. For the patient's adenocardinoma, PET scan showed diffuse visceral, soft tissue, and osseous metastatic disease involving chest, abdomen, and pelvis, new since ___ CT exam. Palliative chemotherapy was considered, but given the patient's very poor functional status (initially ECOG performance status 3, progressed to ECOG performance status 4), this was ultimately not pursued. He had extensive pain, especially in his lower extremities due to B/L DVTs and resultant edema. MRI showed emboli in the brain of uncertain etiology, but patient's mental status did start to decline, likely secondary to delerium, medication effect (from narcotics), and emboli. Patient was initially full code, but after several conversations between him, his wife (and HCP), the oncology team, and palliative care, it was decided that we would focus on his comfort and not on extending his life. He was transitioned to hospice and made DNR/DNI. DVT was initially treated with IV heparin and then an IVC filter was placed to decrease the risk of PE. (Patient may have already had a PE, but we did not do a CTA chest, so there is no radiographic evidence of PE.) He was transitioned to ___, and the Lovenox was discontinued at the request of the patient's wife when the focus of his care was shifted to comfort.

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: M Service: SURGERY Allergies: No Known Allergies / Adverse Drug Reactions Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: Gallstone pancreatitis Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: ___: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy History of Present Illness: Mr. ___ is a ___ year old gentleman with no past medical history who initially presented to an OSH with acute onset of abdominal pain. He was found to have acute gallstone pancreatitis and transferred to ___ for ERCP. He reports that for 10 days he has been having intermittent, acute, severe abdominal pain up to ___ in severity which has waxed and waned on a daily basis. He reports that the abdominal pain is located on the left side and radiates centrally over the epigastrium. It is associated with a burning sensation over his back. He first presented to the ED at an OSH last ___ where labs and imaging were unremarkable and he was sent home. He was given a regular diet on ___ after drinking only liquids at the request of the ED. When eating a regular diet he had acute worsening of identical symptoms so he presented again to OSH ED on ___. He again had a negative work up so was sent home. On ___ he drank only honey water and reports he had no abdominal pain, nausea or vomiting during that time. Wife restarted foods on ___, chicken noodle soup and 2 hours later had acute onset worsening abdominal pain. The abdominal pain is not associated with nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. He has not had melena, hematochezia, fevers or chills. After the last episode on ___ he again went to the OSH where work up revealed lipase of >400 and RUQ US showed gallstones. He was then transferred to ___ ED for evaluation and potential ERCP. In our ED, initial vitals were: pain ___, 98.6, 72, 133/88, 18, 99%RA. Labs were notable for a lipase of 106 (though lipase at OSH was >400), LFTs with TBili of 1.7, otherwise within normal limits and stable from OSH. He was given IVFs, IV Unasyn and one dose of IV Dilaudid. Unasyn was given because OSH RUQ US showed mild gallbladder thickening which could be consistent with cholecystitis. Past Medical History: None Social History: ___ Family History: No family history of gallstone, pancreatitis or GI issues Physical Exam: Vitals: Temp 98.6, HR 81, BP 133/70, RR 18, 98%RA General: Pleasant gentleman in no acute distress, alert and oriented HEENT: Sclera anicteric, moist mucous membranes Lungs: Clear to auscultation bilaterally, non-labored breathing CV: Regular rate and rhythm Abdomen: Soft, non-distended, appropriately tender incisionally Ext: Warm, well perfused, peripheral pulses intact Pertinent Results: OSH Labs / Imaging: 7.8 > 16.___ < 276 128 91 7 -------------< 98 3.6 28 0.8 T.Bili 1.6 AST / ALT - ___ RUQ US ___: - normal liver, multiple gallstones, no pericholecystic fluid, borderline gallbladder thickness MRCP ___: 1. Cholelithiasis. There is minimal gallbladder wall edema, but not a specific finding for cholecystitis. This may be secondary to inflammation, but may can also be seen in the setting of third spacing. 2. Conventional pancreas and biliary duct anatomy. 3. Duodenal diverticulum likely arising from the third portion of the duodenum. While this is near the ampulla, it is unclear whether this is actually causing significant mass effect upon the biliary tree. ERCP ___: -Duodenal diverticulum -The scout film was normal. -The bile duct was deeply cannulated with the sphincterotome. Contrast was injected and there was brisk flow through the ducts. Contrast extended to the entire biliary tree. -The CBD was 4mm in diameter. No definite filling defects were identified in the CBD and CHD. -Opacification of the gallbladder was incomplete. The left and right hepatic ducts and all intrahepatic branches were normal. -Given rise in bilirubin, a biliary sphincterotomy was made with a sphincterotome. The biliary tree was swept with a 9-12mm balloon starting at the bifurcation. A small amount of sludge was removed. The CBD and CHD were swept repeatedly. -The final occlusion cholangiogram showed no evidence of filling defects in the CBD. Excellent bile and contrast drainage was seen endoscopically and fluoroscopically. -The pancreatic duct was partially filled with contrast and visualized proximally. The course and caliber of the duct was normal with no evidence of filling defects, masses, chronic pancreatitis or other abnormalities. -Otherwise normal ercp to third part of the duodenum Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ presented on ___ with acute onset of abdominal pain,. He was found to have acute pancreatitis, thought to be secondary to gallstone etiology. He was admitted to the ___ service for MRCP/ERCP. MRCP on ___ was without biliary dilation or choledocholithiasis. He had an ERCP on ___ with a sphincterotomy performed. He was transferred to the Acute Care Surgery service after a laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed on ___. Please see the operative report for details of this procedure. He tolerated the procedure well and was extubated upon completion. He was subsequently taken to the PACU for recovery. He was transferred to the surgical floor hemodynamically stable. His vital signs were routinely monitored and he remained afebrile and hemodynamically stable. He was initially given IV fluids postoperatively, which were discontinued when he was tolerating PO's. He was provided a regular diet which he tolerated without abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting. He was voiding adequate amounts of urine without difficulty. He was encouraged to mobilize out of bed and ambulate as tolerated, which he was able to do independently. His pain level was routinely assessed and well controlled at discharge with an oral regimen as needed. On ___, he was discharged home and instructed to follow up in ___ clinic in two weeks. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1. Aspirin 81 mg PO DAILY Discharge Medications: 1. Aspirin 81 mg PO DAILY 2.

Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure treating you during this hospitalization. You were admitted to ___ with abdominal pain and found to have gallstone pancreatitis. An MRCP was performed and showed cholelithiasis (stones in the gallbladder) and a duodenal diverticulum likely arising from the third portion of the duodenum. You also had an ERCP. Sludge was removed from the gallbladder and a sphincterotomy was performed. You were then taken to the operating room and had your gallbladder removed laparoscopically. You tolerated the procedure well and are now being discharged home to continue your recovery with the following instructions. Please call the Acute Care Surgery clinic at ___ to schedule a follow-up appointment in 2 weeks. ACTIVITY: o Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and feel you could respond in an emergency. o You may climb stairs. o You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until you see your surgeon at your next visit. o Don't lift more than ___ lbs for 4 weeks. (This is about the weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies to lifting children, but they may sit on your lap. o You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable. o You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you can resume tub baths or swimming. HOW YOU MAY FEEL: o You may feel weak or "washed out" for a couple of weeks. You might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you. o You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your throat during surgery. o You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping. You might feel somewhat depressed. o You could have a poor appetite for a while. Food may seem unappealing. o All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon. YOUR INCISION: o Tomorrow you may shower and remove the gauzes over your incisions. Under these dressing you have small plastic bandages called steri-strips. Do not remove steri-strips for 2 weeks. (These are the thin paper strips that might be on your incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay). o Your incisions may be slightly red around the stitches. This is normal. o You may gently wash away dried material around your incision. o Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area. o Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told otherwise. o You may see a small amount of clear or light red fluid staining your dressing or clothes. If the staining is severe, please call your surgeon. o You may shower. As noted above, ask your doctor when you may resume tub baths or swimming. YOUR BOWELS: o Constipation is a common side effect of narcotic pain medications. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these medicines without a prescription. o If you go 48 hours without a bowel movement, or have pain moving the bowels, call your surgeon. PAIN MANAGEMENT: o It is normal to feel some discomfort/pain following abdominal surgery. This pain is often described as "soreness". o Your pain should get better day by day. If you find the pain is getting worse instead of better, please contact your surgeon. o You will receive a prescription for pain medicine to take by mouth. It is important to take this medicine as directed. o Do not take it more frequently than prescribed. Do not take more medicine at one time than prescribed. o Your pain medicine will work better if you take it before your pain gets too severe. o Talk with your surgeon about how long you will need to take prescription pain medicine. Please don't take any other pain medicine, including non-prescription pain medicine, unless your surgeon has said its okay. o If you are experiencing no pain, it is okay to skip a dose of pain medicine. o Remember to use your "cough pillow" for splinting when you cough or when you are doing your deep breathing exercises. If you experience any of the following, please contact your surgeon: - sharp pain or any severe pain that lasts several hours - pain that is getting worse over time - pain accompanied by fever of more than 101 - a drastic change in nature or quality of your pain MEDICATIONS: Take all the medicines you were on before the operation just as you did before, unless you have been told differently.

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: M Service: MEDICINE Allergies: No Known Allergies / Adverse Drug Reactions Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: Dyspnea Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: Mr. ___ is a ___ with a hx of asthma, HTN, HLD and recent rectal bleed ___ internal hemorrhoids (___) who presented to the ED today with a 3 week hx of cough, nausea and anorexia. Since the beginning of the month, he endorses a cough with clear sputum and wheezing, dyspnea with activity, nausea, decreased appetite, and constipation. After his initial cough, wheezing, and nausea, he was unable to take his long-acting medication regularly, only was taking his ___. He has lost 10lb in the past 3 weeks, but weight has been stable since one week prior to admission. He denies fever, hemoptysis, night sweats. Denies CP, orthopnea, leg swelling, abdominal pain, or diarrhea. He had rectal bleeding that resolved one week ago, was diagnosed with internal hemorrhoids by PCP. Started on a Prednisone taper by his PCP and has required IVF for dehydration and weight loss. Reports a negative CXR 1 week ago and lab work. No smoking hx or chemical exposure. He has a dog at home (for ___ years), no recent renovation, construction or dust/environmental exposures. He has no sick contacts or recent travel.

Chest CTA: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or aortic abnormality. 2. Mild mucus plugging and bronchial wall thickening within the subsegmental left lower lobe branches consistent with small airways disease. 3. Multiple subacute for healing rib fractures as described above. Clinical correlation with previous trauma history is recommended. CT abdomen/pelvis: 1. Fat containing left-sided inguinal hernia with a 3.2 cm soft tissue lesion most consistent with a hematoma. 2. Small hiatal hernia. 3. No pneumoperitoneum or evidence of ischemic bowel. 4. Mildly enlarged prostate with a 1.6 cm hyperenhancing lesion within the peripheral zone of the left posterolateral mid prostate. Correlation with PSA and clinical history is recommended. Brief Hospital Course: NARRATIVE: ___ with a history of asthma, HTN, HLD, recent rectal bleed ___ internal hemorrhoids (___), who presented to the ED with a 3 week hx of cough, wheeze, nausea with vomiting, and anorexia. He was found to have apparent asthma exacerbation with lactatemia, and was admitted to the ICU for close monitoring. Lactatemia resolved with IVF resuscitation. Asthma symptoms improved with prednisone and nebulizers in addition to home inhalers and home antihistamines. In the ICU, he was started on pantoprazole for possible GERD/gastritis symptoms, with improvement in nausea. Overall, his symptoms steadily improved throughout his hospital stay and he felt well enough to go home and pursue outpatient followup as necessary. While no obvious cause of his initial symptoms were found, I think it is possible that he suffered a viral illness with both GI and respiratory symptoms, or experienced an aspiration event during his bout of nausea with vomiting that triggered an asthma exacerbation. PROBLEMS: # SOB/ Cough: Differential includes viral URI vs asthma exacerbation vs acute bronchitis, CAP, including atypical organisms. No evidence of consolidation on chest radiograph to suggest bacterial pneumonia. History of acute onset and poor compliance with long acting asthma medications as well as initial wheezing on exam consistent with asthma exacerbation. Unclear what his trigger was, possibly viral infection vs environmental exposure vs GERD or an aspiration pneumonitis in setting of vomiting. He received one dose 125mg solumedrol in ED and was much improved with steroids and nebulizers. Continued steroid taper as prescribed by his PCP, starting with 60mg prednisone. Continued asthma medications: Fluticasone-Salmeterol, montelukast, and nebulizers. Of note, most recent PFTs do not seem consistent with asthma diagnosis, and he may benefit from full PFTs/Pulmonology referral. # Nausea/vomiting # Weight loss: While potentially all part of a viral process, ten pound weight loss in past three works is dramatic, and possibly not explained solely by anorexia and poor po intake. Should consider possibility of underlying gastritis/PUD, malignancy, HIV, particularly if without clinical improvement. He does not have risk factors for HIV. TSH was normal at 1.2. - If fails to completely improve, would pursue further workup and early GI referral for endoscopy # Elevated lactate: Likely in the setting of dehydration from anorexia (reports poor PO and weight loss) and insensible losses, causing underlying increased sympathetic tone, and further exacerbated by type B lactic acidosis secondary to albuterol nebs. Lactate trended down with IVF resuscitation. # Leukocytosis: Afebrile but with elevated WBC on admission, in setting of prednisone taper prescribed by outpatient PCP. Infectious workup was negative. WBCs trended to normal after IVF, suggestive of hemoconcentration. # Hypertension: continued home lisinopril-HCTZ # Hyperlipidemia: continued home simvastatin TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: # Outpatient GI followup recommended if symptoms including weight loss do not entirely and quickly resolve, given antecedant nausea/vomiting he may very well have an upper GI process. # Further workup for weight loss, including HIV testing if this does not entirely resolve. # Code status: FULL CODE Billing: > 30 minutes spent coordinating his discharge from the hospital.

Take the narcotic pain medication as prescribed if additional pain relief is needed. -Ureteral stents MUST be removed or exchanged and therefore it is IMPERATIVE that you follow-up as directed. -You may continue to periodically see small amounts of blood in your urine--this is normal and will gradually improve -Resume your pre-admission/home medications EXCEPT as noted. You should ALWAYS call to inform, review and discuss any medication changes and your post-operative course with your primary care doctor. HOLD ASPIRIN and aspirin containing products for one week unless otherwise advised. -For pain control, try TYLENOL FIRST, then take the narcotic pain medication as prescribed if additional pain relief is needed. -You may be given “prescriptions” for a stool softener and/or a gentle laxative. These are over-the-counter medications that may be “health care spending account reimbursable.” -Colace (docusate sodium) may have been prescribed to avoid post-surgical constipation or constipation related to use of narcotic pain medications. Discontinue if loose stool or diarrhea develops. Colace is a stool-softener, NOT a laxative. -Senokot (or any gentle laxative) may have been prescribed to further minimize your risk of constipation. -Do not eat constipating foods for ___ weeks, drink plenty of fluids to keep hydrated -No major activity restrictions Followup Instructions: ___

Since the previous tracing of ___ heart rate is faster. R wave progression is slower. Clinical correlation is suggested. TRACING #1 Intervals Axes Rate PR QRS QT/QTc P QRS T 108 148 98 322/406 67 -78 50 EKG (___): Resting sinus tachycardia with atrial premature beats. Compared to the previous tracing of ___ heart rate is somewhat faster with atrial ectopy now seen. Multiple abnormalities are as previously noted with persistent slight ST segment elevations in leads V1-V2 which are non-diagnostic. Cannot exclude ischemia. However, these changes have been seen on multiple previous tracings. Findings may also be seen with hyperkalemia, drug effect, Brugada type pattern, etc. Clinical correlation is suggested. Intervals Axes Rate PR QRS QT/QTc P QRS T ___ 330/419 74 -79 57 Portable CXR (___): FINDINGS: The lungs are clear focal opacities concerning for infection. There is no evidence of pneumothorax or pulmonary edema. Blunting of the left costophrenic angle is chronic related to scarring as seen on the prior CT from ___. The right costophrenic angle is clear. Numerous surgical clips in the abdomen are imaged. The heart size is normal. IMPRESSION: No evidence of acute cardiopulmonary process. Echocardiogram (___): The left atrium is normal in size. Left ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity size are normal. Regional left ventricular wall motion is normal. Overall left ventricular systolic function is low normal (LVEF 50-55%). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic root is mildly dilated at the sinus level. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve appears structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. There is no mitral valve prolapse. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Borderline left ventricular systolic function (in the setting of tachycardia). Compared with the report of the prior study (images unavailable for review) of ___, LV function appears less vigorous. CTA Chest W&WO Contrast (___): IMPRESSION: 1. No pulmonary embolism 2. Several age indeterminate compression fractures are new since ___ and progressed since ___ as described in the body of the report occurring on a background of demineralization. 3. Hepatic steatosis 4. Left lateral upper lobe/ perifissural pleural thickening, adjacent scarring and rib changes and metallic densities apparently representing staples. No thoracic operative report in the medical record. Recommend correlation with any history of intervention there. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ yo male with a history of Crohn's disease s/p multiple bowel surgeries, ETOH abuse, HTN, chronic pleuritic chest ___ s/p pleurodesis in ___ who presents to the ED on ___ after experiencing worsening chest ___ for the past few weeks, found to have ST changes in the precordial leads and elevated D-dimer. ACS and PE workup was negative. He remained tachycardic with increasing tremulousness and anxiety, and was then admitted to Medicine on ___ for ETOH withdrawal. # Alcohol withdrawal/abuse: Patient has a history of drinking ___ pint of whiskey per day. His last drink was on the day of admission to the ED. He was noted to be increasingly tremulous, anxious and nauseous, with tachycardia to the 130s and hypertension to the 130s. He required diazepam and lorazepam in the ED for symptom management, and was subsequently admitted for alcohol withdrawal. On the floor, he was monitored via the ___ protocol. He only required diazepam once during his hospital stay. He was also given thiamine and folic acid. He expressed a motivation to quit drinking, so he was seen by Social Work to identify an appropriate treatment program upon discharge. He was advised to follow-up with the Discover Program at ___ in ___, which is a day hospital treatment program that he is willing to attend. Upon hospital discharge, his symptoms and tachycardia had resolved. # Chronic chest ___: Patient has had chronic pleuritic chest ___ since his pleurodesis ___ year ago that also worsened with movement. His ___ worsened over the prior ___ weeks, accompanied by ___ in his sides and hips and decrease in his mobility. He was evaluated by cardiology in the ED, who determined that the chest ___ was unlikely to be coronary in etiology given atypical presentation, no focal wall motion abnormalities on echo, and negative troponins. He was also evaluated for a PE given tachycardia and elevated D-dimer, although CTA chest was also negative. His chronic chest ___ was felt to be secondary to chest wall fibrosis s/p pleurodesis. Patient was previously managing his chest ___ with opioids, but discontinued in ___. His current home ___ regimen includes tramadol 100 mg TID and gabapentin 300 mg BID. He had already established care with the ___. He was started on lidoderm patch qday and he was encouraged follow-up with his ___ clinic to further optimize his medications. Upon hospital discharge, his chest ___ had returned to baseline and he was much more mobile. # Transaminitis: Patient had mildly elevated AST/ALT, alk phos and INR. At his previous hospital admission for pancreatitis, he was found to have mildly elevated AST, ALT and alk phos. CT abd/pelvis was notable for hepatic steatosis. Hepatitis panel was negative and iron studies were not consistent with hemochromatosis. At this hospitalization, patient only had intermittent abdominal ___ that appeared to be related to gas. ANCA was sent to rule out primary sclerosing cholangitis given history of IBD - ANCA was negative. # Hypertension: Patient with ETOH abuse and s/p L nephrectomy. He has a history of hypertension that was treated at his prior hospitalizations with labetalol. He recently uptitrated his lisinopril from 20 to 40 mg daily. Patient continued to be hypertensive to the mid to high 140s/90s, even after symptoms of alcohol withdrawal subsided. His creatinine was at his baseline (1.1), so unlikely to be related to underlying renal parenchymal disease. He likely has essential hypertension. We continued his home lisinopril without dose adjustment. He may need follow-up with his PCP for further medication adjustment, and to consider adding another agent for better blood pressure control. # Depression: Patient was continued on his home sertraline. Patient has a therapist, but does not have a psychiatrist. He was recommended to see Dr. ___ at the ___ for management of addiction and ___. He intends to follow-up with the ___ as an outpatient.

Mild stranding and indistinctness of the pancreatic head compatible with acute pancreatitis. 2. Mesenteric nodal mass is grossly unchanged from exam in ___. 3. No signs of acute bowel inflammation. 4. Hepatic steatosis. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ year old gentleman with a past medical history significant for Crohn's disease and alcohol abuse who presented with abdominal/back pain and nausea/vomiting, found to have an elevated lipase/LFTs and CT imaging consistent with pancreatitis. # PANCREATITIS: Abdominal/back pain with elevated lipase and evidence of pancreatic stranding on CT was consistent with acute pancreatitis, likely due to alcohol. Of note, mercaptopurine (which patient takes for Crohn's disease) is also rarely associated with pancreatitis. Patient's BISAP score on admission was 1, consistent with mild disease. Patient was treated conservatively with IV fluids, pain medications, and bowel rest. His diet was gradually advanced and he was weaned to oral pain medications. # ALCOHOL ABUSE/WITHDRAWAL: Patient was maintained on a CIWA protocol for alcohol withdrawal and required intermittent diazepam for the first two hospital days. Social work was consulted and patient declined additional outpatient or inpatient supports for substance abuse. He has a weekly therapist, a new sponsor, and attends AA meetings daily. Patient was instructed to avoid alcohol on discharge. # HYPERTENSION: Patient was relatively hypertensive on home lisinopril. Initially, his hypertension was associated with tachycardia and was likely related to alcohol withdrawal. He remained hypertensive to 150-160s/90-100s and required prn doses of labetalol. Consider uptitration of lisinopril or addition of a second antihypertensive medication as an outpatient. # HYPOGLYCEMIA: His hospital course was complicated by hypoglycemia to 45, likely related to poor oral intake in the setting of probable underlying liver disease. He was transiently maintained on a D5 infusion and his glucose normalized. # ELEVATED INR: INR was elevated to 2.5 on admission. Patient was given a small dose of vitamin K and his INR normalized. Unclear if the elevated INR was related to nutritional deficiency or liver disease. # ELEVATED LIVER ENZYMES: AST/ALT and alk phos were mildly elevated during hospitalization. CT A/P was notable for hepatic steatosis, which may be related to alcohol use. Hepatitis panel was negative and iron studies were not consistent with hemochromatosis. Consider additional outpatient work-up for elevated liver enzymes. Patient was instructed to abstain from alcohol use. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: - Patient was advised to abstain from alcohol. - Patient was relatively hypertensive on home lisinopril (BP 150-160s/90-100s). Consider uptitrating lisinopril or adding an additional antihypertensive medication. - Patient was negative for HBsAb and requires vaccination for hepatitis B. - Consider additional work-up for elevated liver enzymes.

Brief Hospital Course: ___ yoF w/ h/o obesity, htn, and recent diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma presenting w/ increased RUQ pain, leukocytosis, and anorexia. ACTIVE ISSUES ========== #RUQ Pain/Leukocytosis: On admission, pt had elevated Alk phos at 197, w/ LFTs WNL, suggesting biliary or infiltrative etiology. Ddx include cholesystitis, cholelethiasis, choledocolithiasis, cholangitis, and SIRS response from progressing cholangiocarcinoma. RUQ u/s showed moderately distended gallbladder, diffuse wall thickening, and more pronounced focus along the fundus raising concerns for tumor infiltration. As pt was not febrile on admission, was relatively well appearing, did not have a significantly elevated total bili, and U/S finding did not significantly inflammed gallbladder , cholecystitis and cholangitis were less likely. Though, given her cholangiocarcinoma and possibility of ductal obstruction, empiric ciprofloxacin 400mg IV q12hr, Metronidazole 500 mg IV q8hr were started, and an MRCP was done for further evaluation. The MRCP showed an enlarged hepatic mass w/ more necrotic changes, gallbladder w/ gallstones but w/out evidence of acute cholecystitis, biliary duct w/out evidence of cholangitis, and an increase in the amount of perihepatic and pericholecystic fluid. Oncology was consulted for the progressed cholangiocarcinoma and recommended no change to pt's original cholangiocarcinoma treatment plan. The pt will receive Y90 embolization followed by surgical resection. Blood culture was pending at time of discharge. #Tachycardia: Pt had sinus tachycardia in the 90-110's while in-pt, and responded to 500cc fluid boluses. H&H was stable, w/ no signs of bleeding. SBPs were in the 112-114, w/ increases to the 150's with ambulation. Cause is likely multifactoral-- RUQ pain, anxiety, hypovolemia from poor PO intact, and SIRS response to her underlying malignancy. Pt's home Lasix 20mg daily was held since admission given her leukocytosis and tachycardia and was restarted at time of discharge on ___. Vitals were stable at the time of discharge. # Dyspnea: The pt had increased work of breathing in mornings w/ intermittent coughing w/out sputum production. Lungs were clear to auscultation. CXR on admission was negative. Echo ___ years prior showed no systolic dysfunction per pt report. Satting well on room air. Pt has baseline shortness of breath at home, contributed to by body habitus. Her breathing improves throughout the day. At time of discharge, pt's breathing was baseline with good O2 sat on room air. # Cholangiocarcinoma: Advanced stage given multiple satellite lesions. Found to have increased in size on MRCP. Oncology was consulted and recommended no change to pt's original treatment plan. Pt will be seen ___ clinic and receive Y90 embolization followed by surgical resection. CHRONIC ISSUES =========== Hypertension: Home lasix 20mg PO daily was restarted at time of discharge. Held while in pt given leukocytosis and tachycardia. TRANSITION ISSUES ============ - f/u on blood cultures - f/u with ___ clinic ___ for scheduled Y90 radioembolization - ?establishment of care with a ___ PMD (pt's previous PMD was in ___ Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Left ventricular function is probably low normal, a focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. The right ventricle is not well seen. Mild mitral regurgitation. Small, echodense anterior pericardial effusion without tamponade. Pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. TTE ___ @1209 The left atrium is mildly dilated. Left ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity size are normal. Overall left ventricular systolic function is mildly depressed (LVEF= 40%) secondary to akinesis of the inferior and infero-lateral walls. The LV apex and ___ wall could not be visualized due to suboptimal apical views. Anterior wall contractility is preserved. Right ventricular chamber size is normal. with mild global free wall hypokinesis. The number of aortic valve leaflets cannot be determined. There is no aortic valve stenosis. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. There is a very small pericardial effusion located along the LV apex and distal anterior wall without evidence of tamponade. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___, image quality is improved (although not optimal) allowing identification of inferior and infero-lateral wall motion abnormalities with overall mildly depressed global systolic function. Normal right ventricular size with mild depressed systolic function. Mild mitral regurgitation. CXR ___ The tip of intra-aortic balloon pump is approximately 2.5 cm below the roof of the aortic arch. The patient is in moderate-to-severe pulmonary edema. The heart size is normal. There is no mediastinal widening. Small amount of bilateral pleural effusion is most likely present. CXR ___ @___ There is interval improvement of interstitial pulmonary edema that is still present, mild to moderate. Intra-aortic balloon pump tip is currently more proximal than on the prior study approximately 1 cm below the roof of the ascending aorta. The heart size and mediastinum are unchanged.

No fungal organisms seen on a PAS stain. Bacterial organisms seen within a hair follicle (tissue Gram stain performed) Multiple tissue levels examined. Comment. Sections show epidermis with focal spongiosis and mild patchy basal vacuolar change with rare dyskeratotic keratinocytes. There is minimal intraepidermal inflammation and changes of erythema multiforme / ___ are not seen in this biopsy. There is a predominantly perivascular mononuclear infiltrate with eosinophils, associated with mild upper dermal edema. Neutrophils are present but sparse with some karyorrhexis. Red blood cell extravasation is prominent. Some vascular lumina are dilated, contain neutrophils and are lined by reactive appearing endothelium. However, no acute vasculitis is appreciated in the multiple tissue levels examined. Overall, the histologic features favor a hypersensitivity reaction such as to a drug. ------------------ CTA CHEST W&W/O C&RECONS, NON-CORONARYStudy Date of ___ Contrast: OMNIPAQUE Amt: 100 FINDINGS: CT of the thorax: The airways are patent to the subsegmental level. There is no mediastinal, hilar or axillary lymph node enlargement by CT size criteria. The heart, pericardium and great vessels are within normal limits. No hiatal hernia or other esophageal abnormality is seen. The thyroid is enlarged with multiple nodules, consistent with multinodular goiter. The lung parenchyma demonstrates patchy ground-glass opacities bilaterally with interlobular septal thickening and bilateral pleural effusions and adjacent compressive atelectasis. In the clinical setting of a recent myocardial infarction, this is most consistent with congestive heart failure. No pneumothorax is present. CTA thorax: The aorta and main thoracic vessels are well opacified. The aorta demonstrates normal caliber through the thorax without intramural hematoma or dissection. The pulmonary arteries are opacified to the segmental level. There is no filling defect to suggest pulmonary embolism. No arteriovenous malformation is seen. Abdomen: Although this study is not designed for assessment of intra-abdominal structures, the visualized solid organs, stomach and bowel are unremarkable. Osseous structures: No significant abnormality seen within the visualized osseous structures. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism. 2. Bilateral patchy ground-glass opacities with bilateral pleural effusions consistent with congestive heart failure. 3. Multinodular goiter. PORTABLE CHEST RADIOGRAPH ___ COMPARISON: ___ radiograph. FINDINGS: Cardiac silhouette is normal in size. Pulmonary vascular congestion is accompanied by mild-to-moderate pulmonary edema as well as bilateral small-to-moderate pleural effusions. Biapical scarring is unchanged.

ACTIVE DIAGNOSES # STEMI: ___ be related to radiation induced coronary disease given patient's age and lack of any cardiac risk factors. Checked lipid panel and HgbA1c to risk stratify. Cholesterol high at 302 and LDL 191. HgbA1c was 5.6%. Cardiac cath on arrival revealed ulcerated lesion in LCx and ostial chronic RCA lesion. The LCx was treated with DES but due to continued hemodynamic instability the RCA treated with DES x2. IABP was placed and levophed weaned prior to arrival in unit. Proper balloon placement was confirmed by CXR. Lactate was rechecked later on ___, decreased from 3.4 to 2.0. Trops and CKMB were elevated after cath and PCI but downtrended. Pt was started on ASA 325mg, prasugrel 10mg daily and Integrilin gtt 2mcg/kg/min x 18hrs. Heparin gtt was started since IABP was in place. Heparin gtt was started without bolus and at half normal rate since multiple antiplatelets were on board, goal PTT 50-60. Betablocker and ACEI were held ___ HoTN. Atorvastatin 80mg daily given. TTE was checked post-procedurally which showed inferior and infero-lateral wall motion abnormalities with overall mildly depressed global systolic function. Normal right ventricular size with mild depressed systolic function. Mild mitral regurgitation. Given hemodynamic improvement IABP and heparin were d/c'd. Continued to have exertional SOB/orthopnea so echo repeated on ___ w/ similar findings except new mild pulm artery HTN. Low dose beta blocker started for cardioprotection and rate control from sinus tach (see below). Allergic reaction (see below) was felt to be ___ Prasugrel. He was switched to Clopidogrel but rash was not improving so he was switched to Ticagrelor (In the future, if needed, Ticlopidine would be another option but there is a chance of cross reactivity). He was started on low dose lisinopril and SL nitro prn. He was also referred to cardiac rehab. # Persistent mild hypotension/sinus tachycardia: Was persistently with SBPs ___ and HRS 110s-120s, intermittently febrile. Warm, perfusing. Was not felt to be cardiogenic. Extensive infectious, endocrinologic workup as well as negative PE scan. Was felt to most likely be related to his drug allergic reaction (see below). At discharge his BPs were ___, HR ___. # SOB: Dyspnea was present at completion of catheterization/PCI and persisted upon admission to CCU. Continued through much of his hospitalization but resolved before discharge. Most likely related to systolic dysfunction/volume overload, with on/off orthopnea and dyspnea on exertion. CXR's with waxing/waning mild pulmonary edema. Pulmonary consult was obtained, who felt it was not consistent with allergic pneumonitis or bronchospasm. Had a negative PE-CT. Improved with intermittent low-dose IV lasix boluses. Resolved at discharge. It could be that because of his prior chest radiation his lymphatics have difficulty clearing interstitial/alveolar fluid. # Allergic reaction: Likely from Prasugrel and/or Plavix. Manifested with persistent mild hypotension/sinus tachycardia, diffuse pruritic morbilliform papules and dusky macules in the groin areas. He also had some mild blurry vision and rising LFTs and eosinophilia. Dermatology was consulted: biopsy consistent with drug hypersensitivity without SJS. Allergy was consulted and felt there was concern for DRESS (though time to onset of <2 weeks was not classic) but his kidney/pulmonary function were not impaired so steroids were not started (were hesitant to start steroids anyway after STEMI unless absolutely necessary). Ophthalmology was consulted and they did not see any evidence of ocular SJS, only dry eyes. They recommended artificial tears. Dermatology recommended clobetasol and hydrolated petrolatum. He also discharged on clobetasol, benadryl, fexofenadine, and camphor-menthol. At discharge his symptoms were improved. # Low TSH: Subclinical. T4/T3 nml. Did have multinodular goiter incidentally seen on CT chest. This should be followed up as his prior chest radiation puts him at risk for thyroid cancer. CHRONIC DIAGNOSES # Lymphoma: Inactive. S/p treatment ___ yrs ago at ___. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES - He will follow up with cardiology here - He will follow up with allergy in 1 week - He was referred to cardiac rehab - He should not be started on steroids without first speaking with a cardiologist. - Multinodular goiter needs evaluation: he is at risk for thyroid cancer - He did not have any hypothyroid symptoms but his low TSH should be followed to see if his subclinical hypothyroidism becomes clinical.

EEG (___) IMPRESSION: This is a normal routine EEG in the awake and asleep states. No focal or epileptiform features were seen. Frequent episodes of leg jerks were not associated with any significant EEG change. CTA Head Neck (___) IMPRESSION: Occlusion of the right vertebral artery from its origin to the level of C3/4. Contrast is seen in a diminutive right vertebral artery superior to C3/4 from retrograde filling from the left vertebral artery. Intracranial vessels remain opacified. Brief Hospital Course: Patient was admitted after episode of altered mental status and possible left facial droop. Evaluation in the ED revealed complete occlusion of the right vertebral artery, which raised concern for embolic TIAs in the posterior circulation at an etiology of the patient's complaints. The patient was therefore started on Heparin gtt. MRI after admission showed no acute strokes and Heparin gtt was discontinued. Transthoracic echocardiogram was performed to assess the possibility of cardioembolic TIA. No intracardiac thrombus or valve pathology was identified. Also in the differential was seizure. Thus, EEG was performed. This study was normal as well. Another possibility is that he had a presyncopal event (although this would not explain the left facial droop witnessed by his son). Atorvastatin was increased to 40mg daily given elevated LDL 137. Aspirin 81mg daily was added to his medical regimen and should be continued going forward. Clopidogrel 75mg was added to his medical regimen, but can be discontinued in 2 months if the patient remains stable.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, You were hospitalized due to symptoms of altered mental status and a possible facial droop that may have resulted from a TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACK (TIA), a condition in which a blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is briefly blocked by a clot. It is also possible however that your symptoms were due to PRE-SYNCOPE, a condition in which blood supply to the brain becomes globally decreased. This can happen for a variety of reasons. The brain is the part of your body that controls and directs all the other parts of your body, so decreased blood supply to the brain can result in a variety of symptoms. TIA can have many different causes, so we assessed you for medical conditions that might raise your risk of having a TIA. This is important because TIAs can be a harbinger of a Stroke, in which permanent damage to the brain occurs. In order to prevent future TIAs/strokes, we plan to modify those risk factors. Your risk factors are: High Blood Pressure High Cholesterol To prevent PRE-SYNCOPAL episodes in the future. Please maintain adequate hydration and try not to over-exert yourself We are changing your medications as follows: NEW Clopidogrel 75mg daily, to reduce the risk of future TIAs/Strokes this will be discontinued after 2 months Aspirin 81mg daily, to reduce the risk of future TIAs/Strokes INCREASED Atorvastatin 40mg daily, to reduce the risk of future TIAs/Strokes Please take your other medications as prescribed. Please followup with Neurology and your primary care physician as listed below. If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur, please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of these symptoms: - sudden partial or complete loss of vision - sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth - sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to you - sudden weakness of one side of the body - sudden drooping of one side of the face - sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body - sudden difficulty pronouncing words (slurring of speech) - sudden blurring or doubling of vision - sudden onset of vertigo (sensation of your environment spinning around you) - sudden clumsiness of the arm and leg on one side or sudden tendency to fall to one side (left or right) - sudden severe headache accompanied by the inability to stay awake It was a pleasure providing you with care during this hospitalization.

He was given 40mg IV Lasix for two days in addition to his spironolactone, and then transitioned back to his home dose of Lasix 40mg qd with an increase in his spironolactone from 50mg to 100mg daily. His exam was concerning for possible cellulitis with MRSA involvement (history of MRSA skin infections) given that pt had some weeping blisters and has had MRSA skin infections in the past. However, he also has chronic-looking skin changes that may indicate underlying venous stasis changes. He was treated with vancomycin in-house, to improvement of his erythema. He was continued on doxycycline BID for a total of a 7-day course of antimicrobial therapy. His final day of therapy will be ___. # ETOH CIRRHOSIS: Child's ___ B, complicated by bleeding varices, hepatic encephalopathy, and volume overload.

Hospital course complicated by intermittent fevers while on broad spectrum antibiotics and acute kidney injury. # Cellulitis Tender erythematous, tender swelling up to ___ of left lower extremity, with slight leukocytosis (10.9). Skin on shins were covered with multiple excoriated lesions with broken skin. Likely due to venous insufficiency, poor wound healing (T2DM), and broken skin due to scratching and chronic itch. Patient was treated with vancomycin for 7 days with great improvement ___ - ___. Vancomycin was discontinued on ___ out of concern for drug-induced fever, and patient was transitioned to doxycycline on ___ to complete a 14 day course on ___. Cellulitis improved while on antibiotics, with significant reductions in erythema, warmth, and tenderness. Initial leukocytosis resolved after day 1 of treatment and has remained normal. # Hypoxia: Patient developed some shortness of breath and hypoxia on ___, requiring intermittent supplemental oxygen (1L) and nebulizer treatments, with patient complaining of chest tightness and dyspnea, particularly in the setting of receiving supplemental albumin. CXR was initially significant for lower right lobe consolidation vs. effusion, and pulmonary edema.

Out of concern for drug reaction causing fever (patient noted a reaction to vancomycin), all antibiotics were discontinued on ___ and doxycycline was started on ___. His fevers resolved and vancomycin was added to him adverse reaction list. # Right chest wall and RUQ pain: Most likely costocondritis, as very tender to palpation. No evidence of rib fractures on CT. No tachycardia or hypoxia to suggest PE. Treated with Tylenol, lidocaine patch. At time of discharge this pain had resolved. # ___: Patient presented with a Cr of 1.3 that has progressively trended up to 2.0 on ___. Patient had a likely prerenal iso of NPO for EGD/Colonoscopy, but ___ did not respond to fluid resuscitation with 25% albumin, nor did it improve with diruesis. Muddy brown fragements possibly seen on urine sediment. Low urine chloride suggesting dehydration. Nephrology consulted on ___ and did not have further recommendations since his creatinine had improved to 1.6 then 1.5 at time of discharge. His spironolactone was held in the setting ___ with potassium of 5.0. Recommend repeat labs in one week prior to resumption of his spironolactone. # Diarrhea. Has intermittent diarrhea at baseline has complained of this during hospital stay. C. diff negative. Stool O+P and cultures also negative. Possibly secondary to antibiotics and resolved by the time of discharge. # Esophageal varices, s/p banding ___: patient was continued on his home pantoprazole and sucralfate.

Pt was found to have strep viridans bacteremia, without evidence of vegetations or abscess on TEE or TTE, cleared blood cultures on ___ on Ceftriaxone 2mg IV daily. ACUTE ISSUES: ============= #Streptococcus Viridans Bacteremia: The patient presented to his outpatient clinic with fevers and night sweats for one week. Blood cultures were drawn which grew gram positive cocci in chains and pairs and the patient was sent to the ED. He was admitted to the medicine service and started on Vancomycin for broad coverage. His blood cultures speciated to pan sensitive Streptococcus Viridans, and he was changed to ceftriaxone (Day 1 of ceftriaxone was ___. The course for the patient's bacteremia was thought to be from oral flora given that he had a planned tooth removal, though his oral exam was normal and he was having no dental symptoms. Given his prolonged bacteremia, he had a TTE which showed no valvular vegetation, however the suspicion was high enough that he got a TEE. The image quality on the TEE was sub-optimal, however no vegetations were identified. Given the sub-optimal image quality as well the patient's abnormal valve, he was still thought to be very high risk for endocarditis and was therefore discharged with the plan to complete a 6 week course of IV Ceftriaxone. A PICC line was placed and the patient was discharged with plan to complete this course as an outpatient. Agent & Dose: Ceftriaxone 2g q24h Start Date: ___ Projected End Date: ___ Lab monitoring: WEEKLY CBC with differential, BUN, Cr, AST, ALT, Total Bili, ALK PHOS, CRP #Thrombocytopenia #Anemia: The patient was found to have a mild anemia and thrombocytopenia on admission. These were thought to be related to systemic inflammation in the setting of bacteremia, however iron studies and hemolysis labs were sent. Hemolysis labs were negative, but the patient was found to be iron deficient with a Fe/TIBC ratio of approximately 10%. The patient should be worked up for iron deficiency anemia as an outpatient, and in particular should have a colonoscopy as his recent colonoscopy did not have sufficienct prep. He should also be started on oral iron supplementation after the clearance of his active infection. CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== #Hypertension: Continued on home Nifedipine and Lisinopril while in patient #Hyperlipidemia: Continued home Simvastatin #Osteoporosis: Continued home Alendronate, dosed weekly on ___ #BPH: Continued tamsulosin, finasteride #Mild Intermittent Asthma: Occasionally uses Albuterol, not currently taking Fluticasone TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== [ ] Antibiotics: Agent & Dose: Ceftriaxone 2g q24h, Start Date: ___, Projected End Date: ___ [ ] Labs: ALL LAB RESULTS SHOULD BE SENT TO: ATTN: ___ CLINIC - FAX: ___ WEEKLY: CBC with differential, BUN, Cr, AST, ALT, Total Bili, ALK PHOS, CRP [ ] Patient should have continued workup for iron deficiency anemia: Recommend repeating CBC and iron studies upon resolution of acute infection with iron supplementation if indicated and colonoscopy [ ] All questions regarding outpatient parenteral antibiotics after discharge should be directed to the ___ R.N.s at ___ or to the on-call ID fellow when the clinic is closed. #Code status: Full Code #Health care proxy/emergency contact: ___ ___ Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

NO MICROORGANISMS SEEN. FLUID CULTURE (Final ___: NO GROWTH. ___ CT: There is mural thickening of the distal sigmoid colon and rectum with surrounding inflammatory changes and mucosal hyperenhancement compatible with proctocolitis. There are no focal fluid collections or gross evidence of a perianal or perirectal fistula, though assessment for the former is somewhat limited on CT. There is no free fluid or free air. The ischioanal fossa appear unremarkable. The remainder of the pelvic loops of bowel are within normal limits. The prostate is enlarged measuring up to 6.0 x 6.8 cm in greatest transverse ___. Seminal vesicles are unremarkable. The distal ureters and bladder are within normal limits. The iliac vessels appear normal. There are bilateral fat containing inguinal hernias. No pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. Osseous structures: There are no lytic or sclerotic osseous lesions suspicious for malignancy. Moderate degenerative changes are visualized in the lumbar spine. IMPRESSION: 1. Mild proctocolitis involving the distal sigmoid colon and rectum. No focal fluid collections or gross evidence of fistula formation. 2. Enlarged prostate. ___ Flexible sigmoidoscopy: Ulceration, friability and erythema in the descending colon, sigmoid colon and rectum (biopsy) Normal mucosa in the transverse colon Grade 1 internal & external hemorrhoids Otherwise normal sigmoidoscopy to transverse colon ___ GI biopsies: A. Transverse colon biopsy: Rare neutrophil or eosinophil in crypt. B. Sigmoid colon biopsy: Focal mild active cryptitis. C. Rectum biopsy: Chronic active colitis with prominent reactive changes and focal granulation tissue consistent with ulceration. Additional levels were examined. ___ LEFT KNEE, LOWER EXTREMITY AND FOOT XRAY: Three views of the left knee show possible small joint effusion, but no erosive changes. There are no findings of multiple myeloma. Two views of the left lower extremity show normal bone mineralization. There is no evidence of multiple myeloma. Three views of the left foot show degenerative narrowing and mild lateral subluxation of the interphalangeal joint of the first toe. The bones of the foot are otherwise normal. There are no findings of multiple myeloma. Brief Hospital Course: ___ h/o multiple myeloma, CAD with MI ___ s/p PCI ___, HTN, HLD, and gout p/w progressive perianal pain, nonbloody diarrhea, and tenesmus x 1 week, found to have new-onset ulcerative colitis, c/b new-onset Afib/RVR, neutropenia, and likely gout flare. ACUTE ISSUES: # perianal pain/diarrhea: Patient received CT ___ that was consistent with proctocolitis. He underwent a flexible sigmoidoscopy with biopsies ___ that eventually confirmed mild ulcerative colitis. He continued to have perianal pain and diarrhea for 10 more days, despite starting mesalamine PO, mesalamine enemas, hydrocortisone suppository, and lidocaine, nitroglycerin, and nifedipine anal creams. The perianal pain was thought to be due to a separate process, likely an anal fissure or thrombosed hemorrhoids, but the colorectal surgery consultants did not believe this warranted an inpatient operation. Though infectious etiology was also heavily considered given his immunosuppression with his myeloma, his stool cultures were all negative for an acute infectious etiology. He was discharged on mesalamine PO, mesalamine enemas, lidocaine and nifedipine anal creams, and senna/colace/miralax with PRN loperamide for constipation/diarrhea (with preference for looser stool rather than firmer stool). For pain, he was discharged on tylenol with a small amount of breakthrough PO dilaudid. # chest pain/Afib with RVR: On ___, he had an episode of chest tightness and new-onset Afib with RVR in the setting of diarrhea and intense perianal pain. He was found to have new 1mm ST depressions in V3-V5 on his EKG, and his troponins peaked at 0.13 before downtrending. This episode was thought to be likely due to demand ischemia in setting of Afib/RVR and pain/diarrhea. He was initially started on hep gtt until troponins peaked, and given his CHADS2-VASC score of 3, it was decided that he would likely benefit from anticoagulation for Afib with coumadin (in addition to his home aspirin). He was also started on metoprolol tartrate and was discharged on metoprolol succinate 25mg qdaily. He will have his INR rechecked two days after discharge and will follow up with his PCP four days after discharge and his cardiologist soon thereafter. # neutropenia: reached a nadir ANC 800 on ___ and ___, but remained afebrile and asymptomatic. He was placed on neutropenic precautions, but soon ___ and ANC recovered without intervention. This may have been due to revlimid, though the time course also coincided with starting mesalamine and colchicine (though the latter was just for one day). # arthritis: s/p injection the week before admission, and has intermittently had acute episodes that had crystals on previous arthrocenteses. He underwent an arthrocentesis on ___, which showed ___ WBC with no crystals but only a 2cc sample. Given that it could be either gout (with no crystals due to the small sample amount) or UC-related arthritis, rheumatology recommended placing him on a steroid taper, starting with methylprednisolone 40mg IV x 2 days, and tapering prednisone PO down by 10mg every 2 days. His X-rays were also negative for fracture. His pain soon resolved significantly. He was continued on his home allopurinol ___ daily and a prednisone taper as described above. # multiple myeloma: has been very well-controlled per Atrius heme/onc. His revlimid and dexamethasone were hold. His acyclovir was continued but his bactrim held, per Atrius heme/onc. # urinary retention: episode of dysuria and urinary retention ___ that was likely related to anticholinergic effects of opioids and anesthetics. Though straight cath could not be passed, a ___ coude catheter was eventually able to be passed with major relief of symptoms. He passed voiding trial three days later without any further urinary symptoms. # ___: Baseline 1.2, admitted at 1.4, but remained for the majority of the hospitalization at 0.9-1. Likely prerenal given hypovolemia from diarrhea. He was given IVF as needed. # HTN: He was mildly hypotensive on admission, likely secondary to volume depletion, and remained hypotensive to normotensive throughout his hospitalization. His atenolol and amlodipine were held throughout his hospitalization and at discharge, as he is on metoprolol for Afib rate control and has not been hypertensive in-house. CHRONIC ISSUES: # HLD: continued on home simvastatin # Radiculopathy: continued on home gabapentin # Depression: continued on home citalopram # Low tension glaucoma: continued on home brimonidine TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: # INR check on W ___ and followed up with PCP on ___ ___, and will need to be connected with an ___ clinic # may uptitrate metoprolol succinate as needed for optimal rate control # will need PCP to arrange GI referral for ulcerative colitis followup # may restart on bactrim as indicated if restarting high-dose steroids for myeloma # may restart amlodipine as needed for hypertension Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

His AF with RVR was asymptomatic. Etiology of AFib with RVR likely multifactorial including volume depletion and ___. Afib was associated with hypotension (SBPs ___. He converted to NSR s/p amiodarone load. He was continued on amiodarone 300 daily and converted from heparin gtt to warfarin. On the floor metoprolol 6.25 Q6H was added and he converted back into sinus rhythm HR ___ with brief episodes of non-sustained a-fib. Discharged in sinus with cardiology follow up. #Hypotension: SBPs initially ___. Likely ___ volume depletion, exacerbated by RVR. Narcotics may also have contributed. He had no clinical evidence of sepsis with a lactate of 0.8. He also has stable H/H and has no evidence of bleeding. His hypotension resolved by time of ICU transfer back to floor. On the floor his BP was low/normal (low 100s systolic) on a beta blocker so an ACE inhibitor was not started. # Type 2 NSTEMI with chronic systolic heart failure: Patient with elevated troponin-T on ___ (trop max: 0.53) with non-specific ST changes, likely secondary to tachycardia, ___, and surrounding trauma. He was treated with heparin ggt, O2, ___ control, and treatment of his a-fib. His troponin trended down to a baseline on 0.02 upon discharge. TTE with newly further reduced EF from 40 to 30%, though unchanged WMA on read. Started on beta blocker, continued aspirin 81 and did not start ace inhibitor secondary to low BP as above. # ___ secondary to rib fractures: Pt endorsing severe ___ in the setting of rib fractures and possible old L1 fracture. Improved minimally on dilaudid PCA but confusion with the pump resulted in drastic swings in ___ control. He improved significantly on oral long acting morphine TID and short acting dilaudid Q4H. He was discharged on this regimen with plan to wean dilaudid first as soon as possible as he improves functionally with continued ___. His morphine should also be weaned as tolerated as he continues to improve. He was seen by neurosurgery during his admission who recommended a TLSO brace for 6 weeks and follow up with them with repeat CT TL spine. They will be contacting the patient to set up this appointment and scan. # Hypoxia: Pt had O2 requirement on admission. He later was able to sat in the low ___ on RA. His hypoxia was thought to be due to atelectasis and splinting. PE was considered but INR was therapeutic. He improved and was saturating 96-98% on room air by the time of discharge. # Cough: patient with chronic cough that is mildly productive. Suction in the hospital did not remove any sputum/mucus. Serial chest x-rays during admission were not concerning for pneumonia and his cough improved with Guaifenesin/codine, pantoprazole, and albuterol nebulizer as needed. # Multiple myeloma: Patient with well controlled multiple myeloma. He was continued on dexamethasone taper (20 once weekly), Bactrim for pneumocystis prophylaxis, prophylactic acyclovir, and pomalidomide without complication. He was scheduled for follow up with his primary oncologist upon discharge. # Goals of Care: Pt's code status has been dynamic during hospitalization with a period of CMO secondary to extreme ___. He was then transitioned back to full code after prognosis discussion and better ___ control. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: - Patient discharged on high dose narcotics for ___ control secondary to rib fractures. Please wean PO dilaudid as tolerated as he continues to improve functionally and then wean MS contin as tolerated. - Please adhere to strict bowel regimen and add laxatives if needed given constipation on high dose narcotics. - Please follow up depression and alternative ___ management medications instead of narcotics.

History was mainly obtained from his wife due to acute ___ crisis on arrival to ___. His wife, ___, noted that pt's friend was recently admitted to ___ w/ influenza and unfortunately died despite aggressive measures. Funeral was held ___ and "everyone was spreading the flu there." She developed the flu and so he was placed on prophylactic amoxicillin and tamiflu. He did not have any symptoms until 2 days ago when he developed a cough, chills, no fevers/sob. He became lightheaded and went to the clinic where he was found to have afib w/ rvr and referred to the ED. In ED, afebrile at ___. HR 120-139. RR 20 and 98% RA. Received 5 mg IV metop at midnight and 4 am, and 12.5 mg ER PO xl at 6 am. FluA+ CXR c/f PNA started on Vanc (3am), Cefepime 2 gm at 1 am, tamiflu 8 am, 2.5-3L NS, and several rounds of IV Morphine. Due to elevated Cr of 3.0, foley placed but traumatic w/ consequent hematuria. On arrival to 5S, pt's HR was 150s Afib, SOB, light headed, and writhing in ___ from the foley catheter. Skin warm but mottled. The foley bag contained dark red urine w/o clots. Wife and puppy were at bedside visibly upset.

DISCHARGE LABS: ___ 01:52AM %HbA1c-7.9* eAG-180* Cholesterol 181 Triglycerides 275 HDL 37 LDL 89 Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ yo male who was admitted on ___ due to concerns for acute ischemic stroke. He was admitted with a 3 day history of fluctuating L arm and leg weakness. In the ER a NCHCT was performed and did not demonstrate an acute infarction or hemorrhage but was notable for old occipital stroke. CTA demonstrated significant stenosis of multiple intracranial arteries likely related to atherosclerotic disease. Although there was concern for stroke, TPA was not given as it was deferred by the patient's family. He was started on Aspirin and admitted to the Neurology service for further workup. An MRI w/o contrast was performed and demonstrated a right pons 11 x 7 mm acute to subacute infarct without hemorrhagic transformation. His home Amlodipine of 2.5 mg qDay was increased to 5 mg qDay due to ongoing high blood pressure. Closer BP control with SBP 120-150 was recommended along with improved glucose control with goal 150-180. He was observed overnight with slight improvement in LUE strength but persistent LLE weakness. There were no new symptoms. He was evaluated by ___ who recommended ___ rehab but family preferred discharge to home with outpatient ___. Patient was advised to follow up with his PCP regarding adjustment of his Metformin for better blood sugar control. Lipid panel was notable after discharge for elevated Triglycerides, low HDL (37), and normal LDL (89); no medications for hyperlipidemia were started during this hospital course; further treatment will be deferred to PCP. Of note, his MRI demonstrated a R globe vitreous hemorrhage, likely contributing to pain. This was discussed with ophthalmology who recommended further evaluation with his primary opthalomogist. Finally, Mr. ___ was on a course of Levofloxacin at the time to admission for CAP; daughter reported he had completed a 5 day course so the medication was discontinued.

Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ year old man with a history of T2DM, CVA (residual LLE weakness), HTN (not on medication), and blindness who presented with 2 days of dyspnea, cough and fever, found to have a LUL pneumonia. #Pneumonia Patient presented with hypoxia, cough, fever and LUL infiltrate on CXR. Given no recent hospitalizations, no risk factors for resistant organisms, was initially treated for CAP with ceftriaxone/azithromycin. He spiked a fever on to 101.8 on ___ with CXR showing slightly worsened L-sided opacities. He was broadened to cefepime/vancomycin. It is unclear why he spiked through his original course but the differential includes aspiration pneumonitis and viral illness. The team spoke with his daughter about making him NPO and getting an SLP eval, and she was clear that this is not within his GOC. He remained afebrile on his new regimen, was satting in the ___ on room air, was breathing comfortably on exam, and had a normal WBC. He was discharged on levaquin to complete a total 8-day course since being febrile (___). #LFT abnormalities AST and ALT were elevated and peaked at ALT 110 AST 196 on ___, then downtrended to the 70/57 on day of discharge. The etiology was unclear but differential includes drug toxicity and viral illness. Abdominal exam remained benign and RUQUS was unrevealing. CK was normal, making skeletal muscle breakdown unlikely. He should get followup LFTs with his PCP next week. #Weakness Patient had generalized weakness, likely in the setting of infection. ___ saw ___ and family expressed strong preference for him to be at home, therefore will go home with home ___ services. #Coagulopathy Pt had mildly elevated INR to 1.6, not on anticoagulation. Likely due to poor PO intake in the setting of illness or disruption of normal gut flora from antibiotics. He had no signs/sx of bleeding and was monitored. #Altered mental status #Memory impairment Patient had waxing/waning mental status. Per daughter, at baseline patient often does not know where he is, what month it is. States his long-term memory is intact but has poor short-term memory. He was put on delirium precautions and monitored. CHRONIC/RESOLVED ISSUES: ___ Admission Cr 1.2, likely prerenal as patient's daughter states he had poor PO intake since ___. He was given intermittent fluid boluses and PO intake was encouraged. His Cr was down to 0.7 on discharge. #CVA He was continued on his home atorvastatin and aspirin. #Type 2 DM His home metformin was held and a gentle insulin sliding scale was started, and his sugars remained well-controlled.

Active issues: # Syncope due to hypoglycemia: Took AM insulin and then no food. EMS reported ___ 48. Patient reports that this is his ___ syncopal episode in the last week which is highly concerning. On review of records, pt has had numerous hypoglycemic episodes that were being managed by education/reduction in insulin dosing as an outpt. No evidence for cardiac, stroke or seizure based on history or exam. Patient was maintained on telemetry with no events. We held his home insulin regimen and home metformin and initially maintained him on a gentle insulin sliding scale. Based on humalog need of approximately 16units total daily, pt was initially started on Lantus 6 units qhs. Attempts were made to teach patient the sliding scale (with ___ interpreter present) but he was unable to display adequate understanding. As a result, we discharged him without a sliding scale and no meal time insulin but increased his lantus to 10 units qhs. We also provided the patient with Lantus Solostar that was set to 10 units at time of discharge. We felt that this would ensure less room for error at home. We instructed patient to not restart Metformin. # Orthostasis: Patient with significant orthostasis ___ SBP drop from sitting to standing) that was not fluid responsive. He denies any symptoms with his orthostasis. We stopped his metoprolol and indapamide as this may have contributed to his orthostasis. He had no rebound tachycardia. We changed his lisinopril and amlodipine to be dosed in the evening (but did not change the dose itself). We continued his tamsulosin as pt has evidence of significant urinary retention requiring self-cath at home (see below). Finally, consideration for reason for othrostasis - we considered possible autonomic neuropathy secondary to progression of his diabetes. However, he has little other evidence of end-organ damage. We also considered the diagnosis of ___ disease as pt does have a resting tremor and shuffling gait. # BPH/Urinary retention: Patient was monitored for evidence of retention. The evening of ___, patient's bladder scan was 600 cc and he was straight cathed. Did not require additional straight cath during this admission. We continued his home tamsulosin. # ___: Patient noted to have a bump in his Cr to 1.4 after episode of urinary retention (see above). ___ have a component of dehydration - got 1L NS bolus ___. The next morning, Cr had returned to baseline of 1.2. Chronic issues: # HLD: Continued home simvastatin # GERD: Continued home ranitidine # HTN/dCHF: Continued home Amlodipine, Lisinopril, ___ 81. Amlodipine/Lisinopril now dosed in the evening. D/c'd home metoprolol and indapamide as above. # Constipation: Continued home Docusate Transitional issues: -EMERGENCY CONTACT: ___ ("relative"): ___ ___ (son): -Code status: Full (confirmed) -Consider ___ disease as diagnosis for orthostasis -Patient needs close follow-up for management of his diabetes. Despite pt's meticulous records, it is unclear he is taking his medications properly at home. During admission, pt did not have a significant insulin requirement and he was discharged on a significantly reduced regimen. He was unable to demonstrate understanding of a sliding scale and insulin administration. -Patient was adamant that he knew how to take his insulin but was unable to demonstrate this to nursing staff.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Discharge Instructions: It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___. You were admitted after you were found unconscious at home. We believe this was because your blood sugar was very low (it was 48). You reported that you had taken your insulin but did not eat anything. You also told us that this was the ___ time you had loss consciousnss in the last week. This is very concerning because if you lose consciousness due to low blood sugar you could have significant brain damage or even die. We stopped your metformin and reduced the amount of insulin you are taking. Additionally, we found that your blood pressure drops significantly when you move from sitting to standing. This change (called orthostasis) can also lead to loss of consciousness, though you denied any dizziness. We stopped your metoprolol and indapamide. You continued to have drops in your blood pressure. This may be due to progression of your diabetes. It is very important that you follow up with your primary care doctor. Followup Instructions: ___

CT Abd/Pelvis ___: FINDINGS: Small bilateral pleural effusions have increased in size compared to the prior exam. There is adjacent compressive atelectasis. Otherwise, the bases of lungs are clear. Note is also made of slight interval increase in pericardial effusions. Note is made of mild pulmonary edema at the bases of the lungs. The liver is normal without evidence of focal lesions or intrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation. The gallbladder is normal. The portal vein is patent. The splenic vein is patent. The spleen is homogenous and normal in size. The adrenal glands bilaterally are normal. The pancreas is normal without evidence of focal lesions or pancreatic duct dilatation. The stomach, duodenum and small bowel are normal without evidence of wall thickening or obstruction. No retroperitoneal or mesenteric lymphadenopathy. Diffuse mesenteric haziness is unchanged compared to the prior exam. CT PELVIS: The prostate is enlarged. The urinary bladder is normal. There is no pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy. There is a trace amount of pelvic free fluid. OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: No lytic or blastic lesions concerning for malignancy are identified. IMPRESSION: 1. Interval increase in bilateral pleural effusions and pericardial effusion, with mild pulmonary edema seen at the imaged lung bases. 2. No acute intra-abdominal abnormalities. ECHO ___ Conclusions The left atrium is mildly dilated. No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. The estimated right atrial pressure is ___ mmHg. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size. There is mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with hypokinesis of the basal ___ of the inferior septum and inferior walls. The remaining segments contract normally (LVEF = 45 %). The estimated cardiac index is normal (>=2.5L/min/m2). Tissue Doppler imaging suggests an increased left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP>18mmHg). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. [Intrinsic right ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of tricuspid regurgitation.] The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Mild-moderate (___) mitral regurgitation is seen. Moderate [2+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is severe pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is a very small circumferential pericardial effusion without echocardiographic signs of tamponade. IMPRESSION: Mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with regional systolic dysfunction most c/w CAD. Mild-moderate mitral regurgitation most likely due to papillary muscle dysfunction. Severe pulmonary artery hypertension. Moderate tricuspid regurgitation.Increased PCWP. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___, global left ventricular systolic function is improved. The severity of tricuspid regurgitation and the estimated PA systolic pressure are now higher. The pericardial effusion is minimally larger. CXR ___ IMPRESSION: 1. Significant improvement of pulmonary edema. Stable moderate cardiomegaly. 2. Worsening opacity at the left base may reflect atelectasis. Pneumonia is felt less likely but cannot be completely excluded in the appropriate clinical setting. 3. Small right pleural effusion is smaller and moderate left pleural effusion is unchanged. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ yo male with a history of CAD, sCHF (EF 35-40%), COPD, DM2, ESRD on HD (___) who is presenting from home after he developed N/V and abdominal pain as well as hypoxia and O2 requirement. ACTIVE ISSUES: ================================ # Hypoxia in setting of pulmonary edema ___ CHF, ESRD: Patient appeared volume up with worsening pleural effusions on imaging. Also had episode of N/V so concern for possible aspiration event. Patient is on home ___ HD schedule, however in setting of persistent hypertension reported at rehab, may have element of flash pulmonary edema. He had no notable EKG changes and stable Troponin at 0.05 suggesting this is not ACS. Patient does have history of COPD as well. No evidence of PNA on imaging and patient does not give good history for infectious process. Some thought that patient has established new dry weight given several recent hospitalizations and poor PO intake. Patient had significant volume removed during his scheduled HD sessions while in house. His oxygenation improved and he was able to wean off of supplemental O2. Dry weight now approximately 55kg. # Nausea/Vomiting: Patient had CT abdomen which did not show any obstruction or acute intraabdominal pathology. Patient has known gastritis, ischemic injury from recent left gastric artery and distal gastroepiploic artery embolization. He additionally reported no recent bowel movements on admission. He was started on aggressive bowel regimen and initially received Zofran for nausea. His N/V did not recur during this admission. He continued PPI and Carafate. # Pericardial Effusion: On CT abdomen, noted interval increase in pleural effusion and pericardial effusion. Overnight no pulsus was noted. Patient does not have any evidence of hemodynamic compromise suggesting that this has been a rapidly accumulately pericardial effusion, moreover, last ECHO from ___ notes small effusion as well. Likely secondary to uremia and/or CHF/volume overload. Patient was dialyzed as above. TTE showed no sign of tamponade. He had slightly elevated TSH but normal Free T4. # Hypertension: per son, BP were elevated >170 during last three days while at rehab but in review of recent admissions, BP appears to be in 150s systolic. Outpatient readings showing systolics in 120s. Patient's Amlodipine was uptitrated on admission. He was continued on all of his home medications. His Imdur was additionally uptitrated as tolerated. Patient did show some evidence of orthostasis so further uptitration of Imdur was deferred to outpatient setting. CHRONIC ISSUES: ==================================== # ESRD: On ___ HD. Nephrology followed patient throughout admission. He received HD per his home schedule with goal of removing ___ per session as tolerated. Based on inpatient HD appears that new dry weight is truly around 55kg as compared to prior (59kg). Patient additionally received IV iron, EPO in HD. He was continued on Nephrocaps and Sevelamer initialy as well as started on a low phos, low K diet. His phos was persistently low, likely nutritional, so diet was liberalized and patient's Sevelamer was held. He additionally required some PO phos repletion. # Coronary Artery Disease: with history of MI in ___ in ___, no known treatment, EF in ___ ECHO 35-40 % with basal to mid infero-septal, inferior and infero-lateral hypokinesis. Repeat ECHO this admission showing slightly improved systolic function but worsening pulmonary hypertension. Patient was referred to Cardiology during last admission but never made outpatient follow up. He continued home ASA and Carvedilol, Losartan. # Diabetes: Diet controlled. # Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Patient continued Albuterol and Flovent in house as well as supplemental O2 as above. # Ophtho: Systane not available so patient received Artificial tears. Resumed home medications at discharge. # Gout: Continued home allopurinol dosed for HD TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: =================================== - please follow up phos level and restart Sevelamer as needed - Uptitrate Imdur as tolerated in outpatient setting - New dry weight ~55kg Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Bilateral, symmetric prominence of the ventricles and sulci indicates cortical volume loss. Atherosclerotic calcifications seen within the intracranial ICAs. No evidence of fracture. The visualized portion of the paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The visualized portion of the orbits are unremarkable other than bilateral lens replacements. IMPRESSION: No intracranial hemorrhage. CXR PA/LAT ___ Lower lung volumes with increased interstitial markings can be seen with inflammation and/or infection. CXR Portable ___ In comparison with the study of ___, there is again enlargement of the cardiac silhouette with prominence of indistinct pulmonary markings suggestive of elevated pulmonary venous pressure. There is a more focal area of opacification at the right base, which in the appropriate clinical setting could represent developing aspiration/pneumonia.

ACUTE ISSUES ============ # Toxic Metabolic Encephalopathy # Community Acquired Pneumonia Patient presented with increasing confusion, cough. Patient had recent trip to ___ and had returned 2 weeks prior to presentation to the hospital. On admission, he was found to be hyperkalemic, hypercarbic, and hypoxic upon arrival and needed 1–2 L of supplemental oxygen to maintain saturation rates in the ___, as well as medical treatment for hyperkalemia as per below. CT head in the emergency department did not show any evidence of acute hemorrhage. A chest x-ray showed signs of infection versus inflammation. His presenting symptoms were thought to be multifactorial in the setting of metabolic derangements and possible pneumonia. He completed a 5 day course for CAP and had significant interval improvement in his mental status. Blood culture returned Coagulase Negative Staph, thought to be contaminant. Remaineder of work up for toxic metabolic encephalopathy, inclusive of: Malaria antigen and smears were negative ×3. CK, B12, folate, TSH, cortisol were found to be within normal limits. Patient's home dose of gabapentin was held in the setting of end-stage renal disease as well as altered mental status and discontinued on discharge. Given persistence of altered mental status, a MRI Brain was obtained which demonstrated new acute-subacute strokes - however, the locations of these strokes was not felt to explain his persistent encephalopathy. Eventually, Mr. ___ mental status cleared and his personality returned to baseline prior to discharge. # Acute Stroke: MRI brain during admission showed acute/subacute strokes in right postcentral gyrus and left occipital lobe. Etiology of strokes thought possibly MCA/PCA watershed vs. embolic effect. Neurology was consulted and patient underwent stroke work up with A1c, Lipids, CTA Head and Neck and TTE. CTA head and neck was without e/o dissection, large vessel occlusion, flow limiting stenosis, or aneurysm formation within the great vessels of the head or neck. TTE demonstrated moderate pericardial effusion, pHTN, and diastolic dysfunction without thrombus. His LDL was found to be 102, A1C 6.6%, TSH 1.8. Neurology recommended discharge with Holter to evaluate for any occult arrhythmia and recommended initiation of ASA and Plavix for stroke prevention. # Hyperkalemia # ESRD on HD ___ Once the patient arrived to the hospital, he was found to have a potassium of 7.6 with peaked T waves, treated medically with insulin, dextrose, albuterol, and IV fluids. Initially, the differential for the patient's hyperkalemia was thought to be in adequate/suboptimal hemodialysis, medication induced hyperkalemia, increased tissue catabolism, and a derangement in the RAS system. His hyperkalemia subsequently resolved and his gabapentin and losartan were held. He continued to receive hemodialysis sessions per his outpatient schedule was placed on a low potassium renal based diet. # Hypoxia # Hypercapnia The patient has a history of COPD but does not use supplemental oxygen at home. Upon arrival he was found to be hypercapnic with PCO2 of 63 on VBG and a PO2 in the ___. Repeat VBG revealed a PO2 of greater than 100 and a PCO2 of 35 on 2 L. He was initially continued on ___ L of supplemental oxygen during his hospitalization but was successfully weaned off and was stable on room air. His initial respiratory derangements were thought to be likely in the setting of his community-acquired pneumonia. # Hypertension. He was continued on his home dose of isosorbide mononitrate. Initially his losartan was held in the setting of hyperkalemia, however was eventually restarted during his hospitalization. # Diabetes, Type II. He was placed on an insulin sliding scale. CHRONIC ISSUES ============== # COPD. He was continued on his regimen of inhaled corticosteroid, long-acting beta agonist, long-acting muscarinic antagonist. # GERD. He is continued on his home PPI. # CAD. He is continued on his home carvedilol. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES =================== [] TTE on ___ noted moderate sized pericardial effusion without echogenic evidence of tamponade. Recommend repeat TTE in 1 month for interval follow up to ensure clinical stability [] ___ monitor provided to patient on discharge to monitor for any arrhythmia given acute/subactue strokes [] Initiated on ASA and continued on Plavix for stroke prevention. Recommend clinically monitoring for signs of acute blood loss given past history of GIB on ASA/Dipyridamole. [] Will need Neurology follow up (appointment not yet scheduled at the time of discharge) [] Recommend outpatient follow up with Podiatry for toenail maintenance [] Underwent HD on ___, will resume regular outpatient HD on ___ starting on ___ CODE STATUS: Full, confirmed HCP: ___ (Son) ___ Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Compared with the prior TTE (images reviewed) of ___ , there is a mild left ventricular outflow tract and mid cavitary gradient seen; the other findings are similar. Brief Hospital Course: PATIENT SUMMARY: ================ ___ with PMH of HFpEF (LVEF 62% ___, ESRD on ___ HD, CAD w/ cath ___, COPD, right parietal lobe CVA, and legal blindness, who was discharged ___ following LLL PNA and presented on ___ after home aid found him difficult to rouse, concerning for LOC. ACUTE ISSUES: ============== #Unresponsive, ?LOC Patient was reportedly unresponsive for 2 min while laying in bed. Given patient was unresponsive for up to ___ minutes, this could have been an unwitnessed seizure followed by a witnessed postictal unresponsive state particularly given his known previous infarct in R parietal lobe, which could predispose him to a seizure. However, unclear whether he had episode of incontinence. Given patient is currently asymptomatic, EEG was thought to have low utility and not obtained. Thought to be less likely cardiac syncope given episode occurred at rest and not with exertion. ECG was normal and troponin similar to previous admission. No significant valvular disease on most recent TTE in ___ repeat TTE on ___ was unchanged from prior. Initially held home carvedilol given concern it contributed to hypotension/bradycardia following the LOC episode, but restarted due to hypertension (SBP as high as 191). Patient was orthostatic on the floor. BP changed from 171 / 68 lying to 127 / 49 standing with HR increasing from 67 to 76. However, episode occurred while patient was lying down. Non-con Head CT only showed chronic right parietal lobe infarct and was negative for acute abnormality. He was monitored on telemetry for arrhythmia. Unresponsive episode was most likely deep sleep. # LLL Pneumonia Patient was recently admitted ___ for chest pain and cough and found to have LLL pneumonia. He was started on Vancomycin/cefepime on ___ and transitioned to Azithromyin + Augmentin (last dose of augmentin received on ___. Also admitted from ___ for HAP which was complicated by type II NSTEMI during his admission. CXR on ___ showed improved LLL opacity. During this admission, patient was asymptomatic, afebrile, without cough/SOB/CP. Per speech and swallow recs on prior admission, diet was kept to soft solids, nectar thick liquids. # Troponin elevation: Troponin remained elevated but stable through previous admission ___ (.09, .12, .10, .10). Troponin was stable at 0.09 which is similar to previous admission and likely ___ ESRD causing an inability to clear the troponins. Low suspicion for acute coronary process. #Pruritis: Patient complained of R leg pruritus, could be uremic pruritis. Patient is allergic to cortisone, was offered sarna cream. CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== # ESRD: continued MWF hemodialysis, last dialysis ___. Continued home-med sevelamer CARBONATE 800 mg PO TID W/MEALS and renal diet (low K and P). # HFpEF: Patient is euvolemic with EF 62% in ___, 57% on repeat TTE on ___. Home carvedilol was initially held given concern for hypotension/bradycardia and patient being orthostatic on the floor, but restarted on given patient was hypertensive. Continued Losartan Potassium 50 mg PO/NG DAILY. # History of CAD and MI in ___: Continued ASA, Plavix, isosorbide mononitrate # Hypertension: Poorly controlled in the setting of ESRD. Was hypertensive on the floor but orthostatic (BP drops from 170s to 120s from lying to standing). Continued losartan and restarted home carvedilol given hypertension. # Normocytic anemia: Stable at baseline, no evidence of bleed. Suspect related to ESRD. # COPD: continued tiotropium qd # Peripheral vascular disease: Per outpatient notes ___, holding off revascularization given medical comorbidities, managing symptomatically with pain control. Patient continued his dual anti-platelet therapy. Gabapentin was discontinued given concern it could contribute to confusion. # Hx of CVA with residual L sided weakness: Continued ASA and clopidogrel 75 mg qd # Gout: Continued allopurinol ___ mg qd # Diabetes: Last A1c ___.

Patient developed acute onset confusion at approximately ___ today. He does not remember the incident. Prior to this, patient had nausea/vomiting approximately one week ago for which he was seen in the ED that has subsequently resolved. He does report that he has not been eating or drinking very much recently in general, although he is not able to identify why. His son brought him to his PCP's office where he was found to be hypotensive to BP 70/40, with HR 67. He was subsequently transferred to ED. The patient reports he has had mild shortness of breath and dry cough over the past week. He states this is a chronic problem for him, although it has been worse than usual over the past week. He denies fever/chills, orthopnea, chest pain, and palpitations. Of note, per PCP documentation, patient wishes to return home to ___ as he feels he will be dying soon and would prefer to die in ___. Of note, patient had admission from ___ - ___ for similar presentation, without clear etiology determined. He was treated for pneumonia that admission. Anti-HTN were briefly held, however restarted once his SBP went to ~190. In the ED, patient was initially found to be hypotensive to ___ at triaged but BP improved to 110s/50s upon being seen in the ED. Patient son states the patient has been coughing recently.

Stable appearance of multiple chronic infarcts. 3. Global age related involutional changes. 4. Confluent periventricular and deep white matter hypodensities are nonspecific but likely represent sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease. Brief Hospital Course: ___ with legal blindness, partial deafness, and history of HFpEF (EF 57% in ___, ESRD on MWF HD, COPD, right parietal lobe ischemic infarct of unclear etiology, CAD complicated by MI in ___ (treated in ___, diet-controlled T2DM, pulmonary hypertension, and recurrent hospitalizations for confusion over the past year who presents with altered mental status and hypotension thought secondary to over-dialysis in a preload-dependent state. His altered mental status and hypotension resolved with IVF resuscitation and conservative volume management during HD. He was discharged home with home ___. ACUTE ISSUES: ============ #Encephalopathy Patient's encephalopathy likely occurred in the setting of hypotension. Per his family, he has had episodes of confusion at time, often after dialysis sessions. Other etiologies for AMS were unlikely: he did not present with uremia, his VBG demonstrated chronic hypercarbia with chronically retained CO2 (pH 7.4), and HCT showed no acute disease. There were also no signs of acute infection. Once normotensive, he remained alert and oriented x3, calm, and conversational throughout this admission. #Hypotension #Hypovolemia #LV outflow tract obstruction On the day of admission, patient developed acute-onset confusion and was brought to his PCP's office where he was noted to have BP 70/40. He presented to the ED, where he was given 1L IVF without evidence of volume overload. Consequently, the etiology of his hypotension was likely due to overdialyzation and severe intravascular volume depletion (outpatient dialysis center recently lowered his estimated dry weight from 58.6kg on ___ to 54.5kg on ___, exacerbated by poor oral intake, autonomic dysfunction causing chronic orthostasis, polypharmacy including multiple anti-hypertensives, and preload- and afterload-dependent left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (with known mid-cavitary gradient seen on echo in ___. Infectious work-up was negative. Per recommendations from Renal HD, patient's estimated dry weight is now 55.5-56kg; he was trialed on dialysis over several sessions at this weight with improved blood pressures and mental status and without evidence of volume overload. In order to optimize preload and cardiac output, patient's home imdur was discontinued. Patient was also normotensive throughout this admission, so his home losartan was discontinued in order to lessen left ventricular outflow obstruction. He was continued on carvedilol 25mg twice daily to allow for increased diastolic filling time and to minimize the mid-cavitary gradient. He was orthostatic per his vitals but asymptomatic. #Pruritus Patient presented with severe pruritus that has been acutely worse in the setting of gabapentin recently being stopped for concern for confusion. He was restarted on gabapentin 300mg daily with resolution of his pruritus and no concurrent confusion. He was also continued on sarna lotion. #Subacute-on-chronic cough #COPD Patient reports a chronic cough and shortness of breath that has gotten somewhat worse over the past week prior to admission. There was low suspicion for PNA and pulmonary edema given lack of findings on serial CXR's. Patient has a history of cough induced by ACE-inhibitors but is not currently taking one. He was continued on home tiotropium daily and given duonebs PRN. Please consider titrating his COPD medications as an outpatient; he is currently on an albuterol inhaler PRN and tiotropium daily at home and may benefit from ___ given progressive symptoms. #?Depression #Risk of severe protein-calorie malnutrition Family reports patient has had depressed mood, hopelessness, and decreased oral intake at home. Patient was seen by Nutrition, who recommended nutritional supplementation four times a day. Please consider initiating low-dose remeron 7.5mg qHS for depression and as an appetite stimulant. CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== #ESRD on HD (MWF) He was continued on nephrocaps daily. Given low phosphorus on this admission, sevelamer was held on discharge. #CAD Reported history of MI in ___, treated in ___ with unknown intervention. Has also had h/o NSTEMI, recorded here in ___ at that time, underwent coronary angiogram without significant CAD. - continued ASA/Plavix; please consider narrowing to Plavix only given no known indication for dual anti-platelet therapy - discontinued imdur given likely not having anginal symptoms and trying to avoid preload reduction - not on a statin due to prior rhabdomyolysis #PAD - continued ASA/Plavix as above #Hx of right parietal lobe infarct, unclear etiology - continued ASA/Plavix as above - not on a statin due to prior rhabdomyolysis #Gout - continued allopurinol ___ daily #T2DM, diet-controlled Last A1c 5.3% in ___. Patient reports he does not take any medications. #GERD - continued home omeprazole 40mg daily; please consider changing omeprazole to pantoprazole given black box warning for concurrent use of clopidogrel and omeprazole TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== - Please continue to monitor volume status with new estimated dry weight of 55.5-56kg - Please continue to monitor blood pressures and mental status with more conservative volume management at dialysis and following discontinuation of losartan and imdur - Continued ASA/Plavix; consider narrowing to Plavix monotherapy given unclear indication - Please consider titrating COPD medications; patient is currently on an albuterol inhaler PRN and tiotropium daily at home and may benefit from ___ given progressive symptoms - Please consider initiating low-dose remeron 7.5mg qHS for depression and as an appetite stimulant - Please consider changing omeprazole to pantoprazole given black box warning for concurrent use of clopidogrel and omeprazole MEDICATION CHANGES: =================== STOP isosorbide mononitrate STOP losartan STOP sevelamer unless your doctor tells you to restart it START nephrocaps 1 cap daily CHANGE gabapentin to 300mg daily Weight on discharge (new estimated dry weight): 55.5-56kg Contact: ___ (son), ___ ___ (daughter), ___ Full code >30 minutes were spent in discharge planning and coordination of care Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure to care for you at the ___ ___. Why did you come to the hospital? - You were confused and were found to have a low blood pressure. What did you receive in the hospital? - We believe your confusion was caused by low blood pressure. - We believe your low blood pressure was caused by too much fluid being taken from your body at dialysis. We spoke with your outpatient kidney doctor to target a dry weight that is higher. We trialed that higher weight at several dialysis sessions in the hospital, and your blood pressures and mental state remained normal. - We also stopped some medications that we believe might be worsening your low blood pressure. - We restarted gabapentin in order to help with your itching. What should you do once you leave the hospital? - Please continue to monitor your blood pressures and talk with your kidney doctor if you are still having low blood pressures or confusion after dialysis. - Please work with physical therapy at home to get stronger. We wish you the best! Your ___ Care Team Followup Instructions: ___

Normal left ventricular wall thickness with normal cavity size and mild systolic dysfunction c/w CAD in an RCA distribution with hyperkinesis of the remaining segments and an overall hyperdynamic ejection fraction. Mild apical intra-cavitary gradient. Mild mitral regurgitation. Mild tricuspid regurgitation. Moderate to severe pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. Large, mostly posterior, loculated pericardial effusion without echocardiographic evidence of tamponade. CT Head: IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial abnormality. Brief Hospital Course: ___ yo M PMHx HFpEF (EF 57% in ___ with legal blindness, partial deafness, ESRD on MWF HD, COPD, right parietal lobe ischemic infarct of unclear etiology, CAD s/p MI in ___ (treated in ___, diet controlled T2DM, pulmonary hypertension and 2 recent admission for AMS/syncopal episodes one of which was related to dialysis who presents from dialysis ___ for a witnessed syncope likely secondary to over-dialysis. Syncope workup pending. ACUTE ISSUES: #Syncope: likely ___ hypovolemia I/s/o dialysis #Pericardial Effusion without evidence of tamponade. Hypovolemia appears most likely given that he just had dialysis was lower than his dry body weight by .___ and has recent syncopal event soon after dialysis. Patient has demonstrated here evidence of orthostatic hypotension however it is unclear if this is the etiology of his syncope as he was lying in dialysis bed. Arrhythmia: will monitor on tele, previous episodes of syncope did not reveal arrhythmia. Work up included an echocardiogram, telemetry and an echocardiogram as there was a report of a mild outflow tract obstruction on last echo. Echo was unchanged except for an enlarged pericardial effusion without tamponade physiology. He will require follow up with cardiology as an outpatient for this finding. Infectious disease was consulted to comment on likelihood of Tb as etiology for effusion. Very low likelihood of Tb as patient is not systemically ill, without weight loss, fevers etc. Per ___ ___ dialysis records patients last ppd was in ___ and was + 15mm, CXR here without evidence of Tb. He had 2 rounds of dialysis while inpatient and tolerated them well. 57kg was used as his dry weight at dialysis and his outpatient dialysis center was informed of this. Cardiology recommended considering adding midodrine as a medication to be taken at dialysis. #Orthostatic Hypotension: On measurement after dialysis 138/50 flat, 105/61 after 1 minute standing after 3 minutes standing 92/61. Potential contributor is the carvedilol however it appears unlikely to cause such a profound drop in pressure. Patient has demonstrated labile blood pressure while here, he possibly has a degree of autonomic dysregulation. We attempted to drop his coreg to 12.5mg BID however his blood pressures remained elevated to borderline urgency range. We will discharge on home doseage. We Encouraged usage of compression stockings. #HTN: -continue carvedilol as above, consider dose decrease for orthostasis (as above), mitigating risk of worsening resting systolic HTN. =============== CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== #ESRD on HD -HD MWF -Continue nephrocaps #Heart Failure with preserved ejection fraction imdur and losartan were stopped during last admission due to hypotension. #DM2 Manages with diet as outpatient, Last A1c 5.3% in ___.

IMAGING: Cardiovascular ECG ___: Sinus rhythm. Occasional premature atrial contractions. Poor R wave progression suggests anteroseptal myocardial infarction of indeterminate age. Low QRS voltages in the limb leads. No previous tracing available for comparison. . Chest (PA and Lat) ___: IMPRESSION: Small bilateral pleural effusions. Hyperinflation. Otherwise, unremarkable exam. ECG ___: Sinus rhythm with atrial premature depolarizations. Borderline low QRS voltage in the limb leads. Non-diagnostic repolarization abnormalities. Compared to the previous tracing of ___ there is no significant change. Duplex Doppler Abdomen/Pelvis ___: IMPRESSION: 1. Minimally elevated resistive indices in the bilateral renal parenchymal arteries, otherwise normal renal ultrasound and Doppler. 2. Tiny left lower pole simple renal cyst. Renal Ultrasound ___: IMPRESSION: 1. Minimally elevated resistive indices in the bilateral renal parenchymal arteries, otherwise normal renal ultrasound and Doppler. 2. Tiny left lower pole simple renal cyst. ECG ___: Sinus rhythm with premature atrial complexes. Borderline Q-T interval prolongation. Non-specific ST segment flattening in the lateral and high lateral leads. Baseline artifact in lead V1 marring interpretation of potential bundle-branch block pattern and ischemia. Compared to the previous tracing of ___ the findings are similar. ___ Ultrasound Guide for Vascular Access ___: IMPRESSION: Uncomplicated placement of a 23-cm tip-to-cuff tunneled dialysis line with the distal tip at the right atrium. The line is ready to use. Portable Abdomen ___: SUPINE AND UPRIGHT ABDOMINAL RADIOGRAPHS: A few loops of gas-distended bowel are noted in the right abdomen, but there is no dilated bowel or suspicious air-fluid levels. There is overall non-obstructive bowel gas pattern. No evidence of free air is noted underneath the right hemidiaphragm. The visualized lung bases are grossly unremarkable. The patient is status post lumbar posterior spinal fusion. IMPRESSION: No evidence of small bowel obstruction. Chest (Portable AP) ___: IMPRESSION: Patchy retrocardiac opacity and left base atelectasis, new compared with ___. The possibility of an associated pneumonic infiltrate cannot be excluded. GI Biopsy (1 jar) ___: Pending Renal Ultrasound with Renal Artery Doppler ___: IMPRESSION: 1. No hydronephrosis. Stable simple left renal cyst. 2. No evidence of renal artery stenosis bilaterally. The main renal vein is patent bilaterally. Resistive indices of the intraparenchymal arteries are again noted to be minimally elevated. Brief Hospital Course: ___ year-old male with recurrent minimal change disease, diabetes Type II, and hypertension here with nephrotic syndrome and worsening ___ despite high dose prednisone therapy with minimal response to IV solumedrol now on dialysis. Hospitalization complicated by anemia, thrombocytopenia, UTI, bacteremia. . # Acute renal failure/Recurrent nephrotic syndrome: The patient has had 2 or 3 prior episodes of nephrotic syndrome, caused by minimal change disease, which had previously been responsive to steroids. During this relapse of nephrotic syndrome, he was on PO prednisone 60 mg daily for 14 days prior to being admitted, yet he was not responding to the PO prednisone. Upon admission, he was transitioned from PO prednisone 60 mg daily to IV solumedrol 125 mg daily. His creatinine initially trended down with IV solumedrol but it then reached a plateau that was elevated at baseline at ~5 up from baseline of ~1 in ___. Mild ATN may have contributed to ___. Because patient failed to regain renal function on solumedrol, hemodialysis was initiated with plans to continue on discharge. He was transitioned from Solumedrol IV to Prednisone 60mg which he will likely require for several months with no taper. Patient was started on nephrocaps and low K diet. He was also treated with PPI, and Bactrim was started for prevention of Pneumocystis pneumonia. . #Anemia: On admission, hct was 36.8. The patient has a history of iron-deficiency anemia, on iron supplementation. He also has a history of gastritis which was previously evaluated by endoscopy. The patient had an MCV of 74 which is consistent with microcytic anemia with a possible iron-deficient etiology. Fe studies showed anemia of chronic disease possibly from a renal etiology. Retic count was 0.6, indicating that a component of the patient's anemia is caused by his kidneys not producing enough EPO in the setting of CKD or his bone marrow not responding to the EPO. GNR bacteremia (see below) may have also contributed to anemia. During admission, hct trended down. Transfusion threshold was hct 25 and he required 2 units of pRBCs over the admission. He had guaiac positive stool x1. Given history of gastritis, there was concern for possible UGIB. An EGD showed that the patient has mild gastritis but no active source of bleeding. Gastric biopsy results pending at time of discharge. He will f/u with GI as outpatient for possible colonoscopy and EUS to evaluate the possible lipoma in the second part of his duodenum. . #Thrombocytopenia: Platelets trended down from baseline 200 to nadir of 89. The dx included infection, HIT, hemodialysis, DIC, TTP-HUS, and post-transfusion purpura. In setting of GNR bacteremia and low reticulocyte count, it is likely that his bone marrow was being suppressed. Initially, heparin sq was held, but HIT type 2 antibody test was negative. At that time, heparin SQ and for dialysis line were re-started. No extensive bruising, has no hematuria, has no bloody diarrhea and normal hemolysis labs. Normal FDP fibrinogen coagulation panel. On d/c, platelets were 167. . #UTI, bacterial: U/A was indicative of infection. Urine culture showed Klebsiella pneumoniae which was pan sensitive. At this time, the foley was pulled. Patient was initially treated with Cipro, but was then transitioned to cepfepime --> ceftriaxone given bacteremia (see below). . #Bacteremia: On ___, blood cultures grew out GNRs, found to be klebsiella, pan sensitive as organism in the urine. Thus, source of bacteremia was UTI. First neg blood culture on ___. The patient has been on ceftriaxone 1 g Q24h to treat this infection. The patient will need to be on antibiotics to treat his bacteremia until ___ for a 2 week course. On d/c, he will switch from ceftriaxone to Ceftazadime per HD protocol (1g after HD). . #Hypertension, benign: The patient has a history of essential Hypertension. His increase in volume status was likely contributing to his elevated BP as SBPs were better controlled after dialysis sessions. Patient was well controlled on hydralazine 25mg q6h in house, but was transitioned to amlodipine 5mg qd as it is more feasible for him to take a daily drug at home. Will need to continue to titrate amlodipine as needed. . #Diabetes, type II, uncontrolled, without complications: Blood glucose was difficult to control in the setting of high dose steroids as above. Initially, he was managed with Lantus in the morning in addition to insulin sliding scale. However, sugars were still elevated and ___ was consulted--recommended changing to NPH and helped with sliding scale. He will need to f/u with ___ as outpatient as glucose will be particularly difficult to control when prednisone is tapered. . #Hypercholesterolemia: Continued home simvastatin 40 mg PO daily. . #GERD: Temporarily on IV PPI when ?UGIB, then transitioned back to home omeprazole 20mg qd. . TRANSITIONS OF CARE: -please transfuse 1 unit pRBCs on ___ with HD (Hct was 24.8 on last check here on ___ -ceftazadime 1g after HD, last day = ___ (14 day course total for Klebsiella UTI/bacteremia) -check CBC weekly and transfuse if hct <25 -urine culture from ___ +for Stenotrophomonas (10,000-100,000 organisms/mL) which was sensitive to Bactrim, and Klebsiella (10,000-100,000 organisms/mL) sensitive to ceftriaxone/ceftazidime; if patient has urinary symptoms, please repeat U/A -consider uptitrating amlodipine if needed -continue to adjust insulin -gastric biopsy results pending at time of d/c -will likely need ___ f/u as outpatient, this needs to be scheduled by PCP -___ patient should follow up with the Gastroenterology department in 3 to 4 weeks to assess timing for colonoscopy and evaluation of lipoma by EUS. -Per wife, patient has had progression of hearing loss. This should be further evaluated as an outpatient. -code status: FULL Medications on Admission: Insulin Glargine 15 units EVERY MORNING Lisinopril 10 mg PO DAILY (held recently) Glipizide 2.5 mg Extended Rel 24 hr ___ tab po qday Prednisone 60 mg po daily (since ___ Furosemide 40 mg po daily Ferrous Sulfate 325 mg po twice a day Metformin 1,000 mg Oral Tablet ___ tablet bid (held recently) Aspirin 81 mg po daily Cholecalciferol 1,000 unit po daily Simvastatin 40 mg po every evening Colace 100 mg po bid Multivitamin daily Omeprazole 20 mg po daily MILK OF MAGNESIA ORAL 30 milliliters po hs prn CALCIUM-CHOLECALCIFEROL 600 MG (1,500)-200 UNIT 1 tablet twice daily Discharge Medications: 1. simvastatin 40 mg Tablet Sig: One (1) Tablet PO DAILY (Daily). 2. sevelamer carbonate 800 mg Tablet Sig: One (1) Tablet PO TID W/MEALS (3 TIMES A DAY WITH MEALS). 3. prednisone 20 mg Tablet Sig: Three (3) Tablet PO DAILY (Daily). 4. ferrous sulfate 300 mg (60 mg iron) Tablet Sig: One (1) Tablet PO DAILY (Daily). 5. cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) 1,000 unit Capsule Sig: One (1) Capsule PO once a day. 6. multivitamin Tablet Sig: One (1) Tablet PO once a day. 7. omeprazole 20 mg Capsule, Delayed Release(E.C.)

You were in the hospital because your kidneys were not working well. We tried IV steroids to help your kidneys but unfortunately you still required dialysis. You will continue to have dialysis in rehab and then as an outpatient. You should call your nephrologist, Dr. ___, to schedule an appointment after discharge. . You also had a urinary tract infection and an infection in your blood. We treated you with IV antibiotics. You should continue the antibiotics to complete a 2 week course on days that you get dialysis. . You were also noted to be anemic. You had a small amount of blood in your stool so you underwent an EGD to rule out bleeding from you upper GI tract. This showed gastritis (irritation of the stomach) but no bleeding. You should follow up with Dr. ___ gastroenterologist, as scheduled below to discuss repeating a colonoscopy. . We have made multiple changes to your medications. Please see the updated list below. . Please attend the follow up doctor's appointments as scheduled below. . We wish you all the best! Followup Instructions: ___

Specifically no intracranial hemorrhage or large territory infarct. 2. Additional findings described above. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ yo M with cervical stenosis s/p decompression, lumbar stenosis s/p laminectomy and fusion, laryngeal cancer s/p radiation and now with trach, bladder and bowel dysfunction with chronic urinary overflow, HTN, DM and BPH presents with fevers, abdominal pain and urinary retention found to have sepsis likely secondary to E. coli UTI. #Sepsis secondary to E. coli UTI Patient presented with one week history of increasing abdominal pain and urinary retention with a two day history of fevers/chills/rigors. Patient was noted to be febrile and tachycardic in the ED with a leukocytosis to 13.7 and lactate of 2.8. UA was notable for 143 whites and many bacteria and urine culture with >100,000 cfu of pansensitive E. coli. He was given IVF and started on antibiotics (initially vancomycin and zosyn in the ED, transitioned to cefepime on the floor and narrow to ciprofloxacin when sensitivities were available). He had a Foley placed for urinary retention but it was removed on ___ with small voids but overall good ability to empty his bladder. He will be discharged without a Foley but with plans for close follow up with his urologist (see below). He will complete a 7 day course of ciprofloxacin 500mg BID that will finish on ___. #Urinary retention Review of old records show that he has some level of chronic retention likely secondary to BPH with some component of bladder dysfunction secondary to long standing DM. He had a foley catheter placed, which was discontinued 24 hours before discharge. He was able to void after discontinuation of the foley, however PVR were 200-300cc. Review of his urology records show that PVRs in this range were not atypical for him, and we opted to send him home without a Foley catheter with close urology follow up. We continued his tamsulosin and finasteride while inpatient. Patient was on mirabegron as outpatient, however this was not on formulary and was held on admission. He can restart this as an outpatient. #Type II NSTEMI Patient with troponin leak on admission that peaked at 0.38. In the absence of EKG changes and symptoms, it was felt that this was likely type II NSTEMI in the setting of sepsis. He was maintained on his rosuvastatin and aspirin. #Leukopenia Patient noted to be leukopenic with WBC 2.1 on discharge. WBC trended from 13.7 on admission --> 4.1 --> 2.4 --> 2.1. Review of previous records showed that patient had a history of leukopenia when getting vancomycin in the past. We suspect that his downtrending WBC was likely secondary to cefepime and should nadir and recover after discontinuation (___). We have arranged for blood to be drawn the day after discharge (___) in order to assess his WBC. The results should be faxed to his new PCP, ___ at ___ (fax number ___. ___ Patient presented with Cr 1.5, which is above baseline 0.88. on review on records baseline Cr ~ .88. We suspected that this was likely prerenal in the setting of sepsis, and it responded well to fluids. At time of discharge, his Cr was 0.8. #T2DM Last Hgba1c 7.6, on glargine 11 qam, Humalog 3,3,3 with sliding scale. We continued glargine and SSI while inpatient. #Minimal change disease Continued prednisone 15 #HTN Lisinopril was held in the setting of sepsis and ___. With resolution of these problems, lisinopril was reinitiated at his home dose (40mg PO daily). #GERD Continued omeprazole TRANSITIONAL ISSUES ===================== []Leukopenia - patient noted to have downtrending WBC while admitted, suspected secondary to cefepime. CBC to be checked on the day after discharge (___) with results to be sent to Dr. ___ at ___ (fax number ___. []Urinary retention - will need to be further addressed on outpatient basis.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: You were admitted to the hospital with abdominal pain. You underwent a cat scan which showed a small bowel obstruction related to an internal hernia. You were taken to the operating room where you underwent a small bowel resection. You are slowly recovering from your surgery and preparing for discharge home with the following instructions: Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and feel you could respond in an emergency. You may climb stairs. You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until you see your surgeon at your next visit. Don't lift more than ___ lbs for 6 weeks. (This is about the weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies to lifting children, but they may sit on your lap.) You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable. You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you can resume tub baths or swimming. Heavy exercise may be started after 6 weeks, but use common sense and go slowly at first. You may resume sexual activity unless your doctor has told you otherwise. HOW YOU MAY FEEL: You may feel weak or "washed out" for 6 weeks. You might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you. You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your throat during surgery. You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping. You might feel somewhat depressed. You could have a poor appetite for a while. Food may seem unappealing. All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon. YOUR INCISION: Your incision may be slightly red aroudn the stitches or staples. This is normal. You may gently wash away dried material around your incision. Do not remove steri-strips for 2 weeks. (These are the thin paper strips that might be on your incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay). It is normal to feel a firm ridge along the incision. This will go away. Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area. Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told otherwise. You may see a small amount of clear or light red fluid staining your dressing r clothes. If the staining is severe, please call your surgeon. You may shower. As noted above, ask your doctor when you may resume tub baths or swimming. Ove the next ___ months, your incision will fade and become less prominent. YOUR BOWELS: Constipation is a common side effect of medicine such as Percocet or codeine. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these medicines without a prescription. If you go 48 hours without a bowel movement, or have pain moving the bowels, call your surgeon. After some operations, diarrhea can occur. If you get diarrhea, don't take anti-diarrhea medicines. Drink plenty of fluitds and see if it goes away. If it does not go away, or is severe and you feel ill, please call your surgeon. PAIN MANAGEMENT: It is normal to feel some discomfort/pain following abdominal surgery. This pain is often described as "soreness". Your pain should get better day by day. If you find the pain is getting worse instead of better, please contact your surgeon. You will receive a prescription from your surgeon for pain medicine to take by mouth. It is important to take this medicine as directied. Do not take it more frequently than prescribed. Do not take more medicine at one time than prescribed. Your pain medicine will work better if you take it before your pain gets too severe. Talk with your surgeon about how long you will need to take prescription pain medicine. Please don't take any other pain medicine, including non-prescription pain medicine, unless your surgeon has said its okay. IF you are experiencing no pain, it is okay to skip a dose of pain medicine. Remember to use your "cough pillow" for splinting when you cough or when you are doing your deep breathing exercises. If you experience any of the folloiwng, please contact your surgeon: - sharp pain or any severe pain that lasts several hours - pain that is getting worse over time - pain accompanied by fever of more than 101 - a drastic change in nature or quality of your pain MEDICATIONS: Take all the medicines you were on before the operation just as you did before, unless you have been told differently. In some cases you will have a prescription for antibiotics or other medication. If you have any questions about what medicine to take or not to take, please call your surgeon. DANGER SIGNS: Please call your surgeon if you develop: - worsening abdominal pain - sharp or severe pain that lasts several hours - temperature of 101 degrees or higher - severe diarrhea - vomiting - redness around the incision that is spreading - increased swelling around the incision - excessive bruising around the incision - cloudy fluid coming from the wound - bright red blood or foul smelling discharge coming from the wound - an increase in drainage from the wound Followup Instructions: ___

The right atrium is moderately dilated. There is mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with hypokinesis of the inferior wall. There is mild hypokinesis of the remaining segments (LVEF = 40-45 %). The right ventricular cavity is moderately dilated with mild global free wall hypokinesis. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Mild to moderate (___) mitral regurgitation is seen. There is borderline pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality. Mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size and mild regional systolic dysfunction involving the RCA territory. Moderate right ventricular cavity dilation with mild global hypokinesis. Mild to moderate mitral regurgitation. Cath report ___: Coronary Anatomy Dominance: Right * Left Coronary Artery: Known ___ chronically occluded based on prior cath reports and therefore not engaged. * Right Coronary Artery: The RCA is with diffuse mild-moderate disease throughout; there is a widely patent mid stent. There is a 90% stent restenosis in the Distal RCA immediately prior to the bifurcation. The lesion has a TIMI flow of 3. This lesion is further described as focal. An intervention was performed on the Distal RCA with a final stenosis of 0%. There were no lesion complications. * LIMA-LAD Widely patent graft. The left subclavian demonstrated severe tortuosity; there was no pressure gradient on catheter pullback to the aorta. * SVG-OM 50% distal graft body lesion. * SVG-RPDA Known occluded and therefore not engaged. Interventional Details A 6 ___ AL-0.75 guide provided excellent support. Heparin was given and a therapeutic ACT confirmed. We crossed easily to the distal vessel with a Prowater wire and predilated with a 2.0mm balloon at 12 atm in order to facillitate intravascular OCT imaging to establish sizing and mechanism of stent failure. IVOCT demonstrated distal neointimal hyperplasia and proximal severe neoatherosclerosis; the reference vessel diameter was ~2.6mm proximally. We predilated further with a 2.5mm balloon at 16 atm, deployed a 2.5x15mm Resolute Onyx drug-eluting stent at 18 atm and post-dilated throughout including the overlap zone with the prior stent using a 2.75mm NC balloon up to 25 atm. Final angiography with no residual, no dissection, and normal flow. Notably, the patient had developed confusion and agitation during the procedure, and subsequently also chest pain following ballon predilatation that resolved after stent placement and with IV nitroglycerin administration. He left the cath lab in hemodynamically stable condition. Intra-procedural Complications: None Impressions: Successful OCT-guided PCI of RCA stent restenosis with drug-eluting stent Recommendations Aspirin 81 mg daily indefinitely Clopidogrel for minimum 12 months Follow up with Dr. ___ ___ CXR: IMPRESSION: No acute cardiopulmonary process. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is an ___ year old M w/ ___ CAD s/p CABG ___ at ___, DMII, smoking, CVA ___ and ___ who presents with chest pain and left-sided paresthesias now s/p successful OCT-guided PCI of RCA stent restenosis with drug-eluting stent. On admission, patient had trop leak (from <.01) to 0.34 with CK-MB 41. He also had dynamic changes on ECG and asymptomatic bradycardia with HRs in the ___. We held the metoprolol in this setting. His cath successfully re-vascularized RCA stent with DES. We consulted his primary cardiologist who agreed with dual anti-coagulation therapy following PIONEER trial for afib with PCI. We started him on Plavix and rivaroxaban 15mg, and we discontinued the aspirin. His heart rate improved after the revascularization, remaining mostly in the ___. We continued to hold metoprolol. We continued high dose statin given his significant coronary artery disease. He also had an echo, which showed LVEF 40-45%.

Discharge Disposition: Home Discharge Diagnosis: NSTEMI Discharge Condition: Mental status: clear and coherent Ambulatory status: with assistance Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you at the ___ ___! WHY WAS I ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL? ================================== You were admitted to the hospital because you had chest pain. You were found to have had a heart attack. Your heart arteries were examined (cardiac catheterization) which showed a blockage of one of the arteries. This was opened by placing a tube called a stent in the artery. You were given medications to prevent future blockages. You improved considerably and were ready to leave the hospital. WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO WHEN YOU LEAVE THE HOSPITAL? =================================================== -You must stop smoking. It's the number one most important thing you could do for your health. Please speak to your doctor about new treatment options to help you quit. -It is very important to take your rivaroxaban and clopidogrel (also known as Plavix) every day. You will no longer take aspirin. -These two medications keep the stents in the vessels of the heart open and help reduce your risk of having a future heart attack. They also reduce your risk of stroke given your afib. -If you stop these medications or miss ___ dose, you risk causing a blood clot forming in your heart stents, and you may die from a massive heart attack. - Take all of your medications as prescribed (listed below) - Follow up with your doctors as listed below - Seek medical attention if you have new or concerning symptoms or you develop chest pain, swelling in your legs, abdominal distention, or shortness of breath at night. Thank you for allowing us to be involved in your care, we wish you all the best! -Your ___ Care Team Followup Instructions: ___

Chief Complaint: right sided chest pain and SOB Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: ___ Right pleural pigtail catheter placement History of Present Illness: Patient is a ___ who presented to the ED complaining of acute onset right sided chest pain and shortness of breath. Patient reports that he was at home eating when around midnight he had sudden right sided, sharp, non-radiating chest pain particularly around the inner aspect of his right chest. Chest pain has pleuritic component with worsened pain on deep inspiration. He says his pain is relieved with leaning forward and worse with lying flat. The pain was persistent, and he attempted to take a warm shower and took some magnesium to help relax his muscles, which he says helped. He went to sleep around 4am, then woke up two hours later with continued chest pain and shortness of breath, for which he came to the ED today for evaluation. He denies any history of trauma. He has never had similar symptoms in the past, though he does state that he has a history of panic attacks that are more characterized by sweats and anxiety rather than shortness of breath and chest pain. On evaluation in the ED, he was breathing 100% on room air, he was mildly tachycardic but normotensive, his labs were unremarkable, and EKG sinus rhythm without concerning findings. He had an ultrasound done by the ED which they found concerning for R sided pneumothorax, and subsequent chest xray showed findings equivocal for pneumothorax, so per radiology recommendations he had an inspiratory and expiratory xray done which showed a small to moderate right-sided pneumothorax without evidence of mediastinal shift, though this pneumothorax was most remarkable on expiratory film and minimal on inspiratory film. Past Medical History: asthma as a child Social History: ___ Family History: mother with sleep apnea, prior ablation. No other significant family history. Physical Exam: Vitals: T 98.2; HR 70; BP 136/71; RR 18; SPO2 100% RA (also on nonrebreather, but when taken off at bedside patient breathing 100% RA) GEN: Well appearing. Mild distress and anxiety. HEENT: NCAT, EOMI, sclera anicteric CV: HDS PULM: Some mild shortness of breath without use of accessory muscles. Conversing comfortably. Inspiratory breath sounds equal bilaterally. Patient with pain on deep inspiration. Mild pain with palpation to right anterior chest wall around rib 3 at the mid clavicular line.

No evidence of acute pneumonia, vascular congestion, or pleural effusion. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ was evaluated by the Thoracic Surgery service in the Emergency Room and admitted to the hospital for further management of his right spontaneous pneumothorax. A right pleural pigtail catheter was placed and there was full expansion of his right lung on chest xray without an air leak. Following transfer to the Surgical floor the tube remained on waterseal for 24 hours and his room air saturations were 98%. He had no air leak or chest pain.

Chief Complaint: Pain Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: chest tube bronchoscopy ebus biopsy pleurX placement History of Present Illness: ___ w/ recent diagnosis of right-sided lung mass presenting with chest pain, shortness of breath, cough, hip pain. History is aided by his daughter who helps translate to ___. Mr. ___ has had a dry cough for over a month. He went to his PCP who gave symptomatic treatments, but it did not improve. Over the past 2 weeks, he has had increasing shortness of breath as well as dyspnea with exertion. He would have bouts of coughing, worse at night and not allowing him to sleep with associated left-sided chest pain. That pain is not pleuritic, and no hemoptysis.

Small right pleural effusion. In comparison with scout image from prior chest CT from ___, there has likely been no significant interval change; although, it is difficult to exclude a subtle consolidation at the right mid to lower lung. Pelvis X-ray IMPRESSION: No acute fracture or definite concerning osseous lesion. Please note that cross-sectional imaging, in particular MRI is more sensitive in detecting osseous metastases. - CT CHEST 1. Large right hilar mass measures 9 x 6.9 x 6.8 cm partially obstructing the right main pulmonary bronchus and lobar branches causing postobstructive partial collapse of the right upper lobe, and postobstructive ground-glassopacities in the right middle lobe. There is also significant narrowing of the distal right main pulmonary artery and its lobar branches as well as the superior pulmonary veins. The mass invades into the mediastinum. 2. Nodular interlobular septal thickening in the right middle and lower lobes is concerning for postobstructive inflammatory/infection process, local lymphangitic spread or vascular congestion. 3. Worsening moderate right pleural effusion and rim enhancing collections/masses in the medial aspect of the right middle lobe are highly concerning for pleural implants. 4. Bilateral adrenal masses are highly suspicious for metastasis. 5. New hypoattenuating lesion in the left subscapularis muscle, which may represent additional metastatic disease. 6. Unchanged small pericardial effusion, which is concerning for a malignant effusion. - MRI BRAIN 1. Multiple punctate enhancing and nonenhancing foci are seen in the right cerebellar hemisphere and both cerebral hemispheres, likely representing metastatic lesions. - CXR (___): Small right pleural effusion has increased despite indwelling right pleural drainage catheter. Small apical pneumothorax unchanged. Right upper lobe largely collapsed around right hilar mass. Moderate cardiomegaly stable. Left lung clear. - TTE (___): The left atrial volume index is normal. There is normal left ventricular wall thickness with a normal cavity size. There is normal regional and global left ventricular systolic function. The visually estimated left ventricular ejection fraction is 65%. There is no resting left ventricular outflow tract gradient. Mildly dilated right ventricular cavity with normal free wall motion. There is abnormal interventricular septal motion. The aortic sinus is mildly dilated with normal ascending aorta diameter for gender. The aortic arch diameter is normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal. There is no aortic valve stenosis. There is trace aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve leaflets appear structurally normal with no mitral valve prolapse. There is trivial mitral regurgitation. The tricuspid valve leaflets appear structurally normal. There is mild [1+] tricuspid regurgitation. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is a small pericardial effusion. There are no 2D or Doppler echocardiographic evidence of tamponade. - PET SCAN: 1. There is an FDG avid right upper lobe necrotic mass with associated hilar, mediastinal, and axillary lymphadenopathy, moderate right pleural effusion, and pleural nodularity, compatible with known lung cancer. Right lateral approach drainage catheter remains in situ. 2. There is diffuse metastatic disease involving the musculature, multiple bones, and bilateral adrenal gland nodule/masses, as described in detail above.

He underwent thoracentesis; cytology from pleural fluid showed NSCLC (likely adeno). IP was consulted and he subsequently underwent EBUS with biopsy and placement of a tunneled pleurex catheter. ___ was initially bothered by pain at ___ site, but this improved with symptomatic treatment, time, and frequent draining of pleural fluid. ___ experience coughing spells initially with the TPC, but this improved significantly POD#1, and continued to improve thereafter with pain control, and pleural draining. Given that CT imaging had noted pericardial effusion, TTE performed for evaluation, which demonstrated small effusion without evidence of tamponade. Hematology was initially consulted, but later recommended instead outpatient follow-up in ___ clinic. ___ had originally been scheduled for outpatient PET/CT for staging, but given that he could not be discharged prior, this was performed inpatient. PET/CT was notable for diffuse metastatic disease involving the musculature, multiple bones, and bilateral adrenal glands. Regarding brain metastasis, ___ had a normal neurologic exam, without neuro symptoms, and no edema of concerning features seen on brain MR. ___ had also complained of some intermittent aching pains that corresponsed with MSK/bony mets seen on imaging. He was dicharged with pain medications and instructions to its use, with the understanding that pain symptoms would have be addressed with underlying cancer treatment and multidisciplinary plan. ___ family expressed concern that ___ was unable to get out of bed, but he was observed multiple times ambulating laps around the hospital floor. Given persistent fatigue and poor appetite, ___ was started on dexamethasone prior to discharge (NOT for brain met indication). This seemed to help his self reported symptoms. By day of discharge, ___ was tolerating a regular diet, with significant improvement (near total resolution) of coughing, ambuilating independently in halls, capable by RN assessment of performing home ADLs, pain adequately controlled, and without neurologic symptoms. He was seen by the ___ oncology social work for assistance in the home. ___ was set up for frequent home ___ to assist with TPC management, dressing changes, and symptom assessment. He was discharged with intent to follow-up with IP and multidiciplnary thoracic clinic to establish care plan. # Sepsis # Post-obstructive pneumonia (tachycardia, leukocytosis): ___ was noted to have pneumonia on CXR on admission.

ACUTE/ACTIVE PROBLEMS: # Weakness Patient presented with generalized weakness in the setting of CLL with recent Rituximab treatment, malignant pleural effusions. Broad infectious workup was negative - blood cultures were negative, UA was negative, and repeat C diff testing was negative. CT of the chest revealed persistent effusions, though decreased on the right. Pneumonia was unable to be fully excluded given the presence of effusions but he had no respiratory symptoms suggestive of this. He was evaluated by thoracic surgery who felt that the ___ window was healing well without any sign of infection. Overdiuresis was considered as a cause of weakness but creatinine was normal and orthostatics were negative, making this unlikely. Digoxin level was normal. TSH was elevated at 16, though T3 and T4 levels were normal and TSH was improved from prior level of 85, at which time levothyroxine dose had been increased. He denied any symptoms of depression.

Will take oral benzodiazepines before scan secondary to claustrophobia// evaluate for cord compression evaluate for cord compression TECHNIQUE: Sagittal imaging was performed with T2, T1, and STIR technique, followed by axial T2 imaging. This was followed by sagittal and axial T1 images obtained after the uneventful intravenous administration of 10 mL of Gadavist contrast agent. COMPARISON: CT chest from ___ and MRI from ___. FINDINGS: Again seen is the expansile mass at T5 and T6 demonstrating hyperintense signal on T2 weighted imaging, intrinsically hypointense on T1 weighted imaging. As previously, there is enhancement of the mass after contrast administration. However, compared to prior exam, the enhancement is heterogeneous and specifically not avidly enhancing in the areas of hypointensity on T2 weighted imaging, which may represent areas of necrosis or hemorrhage (12:25). The overall size of the mass is grossly unchanged, measuring 4.8 x 3.8 cm, previously 4.8 x 3.5 cm at the similar slice (08:25). Persistent mass effect on the spinal cord with encasement of the right aspect of the spinal cord, severe narrowing of the spinal canal and displacement of the spinal cord to the left is overall unchanged. Specifically, the epidural component of the soft tissue results in severe spinal canal narrowing with compression of the spinal cord (12:24). There is no definite cord signal change. The mass continues to involve the pedicle of T5 vertebral body in the facet and lamina with extension to the right fifth rib. Lobulated soft tissue extension into the neural foramina with mass-effect on the spinal cord, mildly displacing it to the left is persistent and overall not significantly changed from prior exam (02:28). Extra cortical soft tissue breakthrough is again noted. New since prior exam, there is increased pulmonary parenchymal consolidation abutting the area of soft tissue mass, which is enhancing on postcontrast images in the paraspinal right lower lobe (12:27), concerning for metastatic extension. As previously, there is compression deformity at T5 vertebral body, compatible with pathologic fracture. 8 mm focus of hyperintensity on T2 and T1 weighted imaging at T11 is likely a hemangioma, unchanged from ___. The remaining vertebral body alignment, vertebral body height and disc spaces are mostly preserved. No other focal bone marrow lesion is seen. The remainder of the spinal cord is preserved in caliber. No signal abnormality is seen elsewhere. Incidental note is made of 1.4 cm right upper pole renal cyst, unchanged from prior exam. IMPRESSION: 1. Lobulated, expansile enhancing mass at T5 and T6 with epidural component, severely narrowing the spinal canal, exerting mass effect on the spinal cord with near complete effacement of the CSF, not significantly changed from ___. However, the enhancement is now heterogeneous, which may represent necrosis or hemorrhage within the mass. 2. Enhancing pulmonary parenchymal consolidation abutting the extramedullary component of the above described metastatic disease, concerning for pulmonary extension. CT chest may be obtained for further evaluation. CTA CHEST ___ EXAMINATION: CTA CHEST WITH CONTRAST INDICATION: ___ with T6 metastatic RCC having worsening pain x1 week// ? change in known T6 metastatic RCC; please perform CTA T spine w/ thin cuts through T6 TECHNIQUE: Axial multidetector CT images were obtained through the thorax after the uneventful administration of intravenous contrast. Reformatted coronal, sagittal, thin slice axial images, and oblique maximal intensity projection images were submitted to PACS and reviewed. DOSE: Total DLP (Body) = 866 mGy-cm. COMPARISON: MR ___ from ___hest from ___ FINDINGS: HEART AND VASCULATURE: Pulmonary vasculature is well opacified to the subsegmental level without filling defect to indicate a pulmonary embolus. The thoracic aorta is normal in caliber without evidence of dissection or intramural hematoma. The heart, pericardium, and great vessels are within normal limits. No pericardial effusion is seen. AXILLA, HILA, AND MEDIASTINUM: No pathologically enlarged axillary, hilar, or mediastinal lymph nodes are seen. PLEURAL SPACES: No pleural effusion or pneumothorax. LUNGS/AIRWAYS: There is re-demonstration of a pulmonary mass in the right lower lobe that measures 2.7 x 1.7 cm, which is not significantly changed when compared to prior study.

A hemorrhagic component with subacute blood products is noted in the left-sided component of the lesion. There is edema in the medial left temporal lobe. Encasement of the cavernous carotid segments on both sides without luminal thrombosis. Mass seen to extend into the cavernous sinuses on both sides. Lesion in proximity to the basilar artery without clear plane of separation on some images. Mass effect on the optic chiasm. Infundibulum not seen separately. Possibilities include an aggressive pituitary macroadenoma, meningioma or a clival chondrosarcoma, lymphoma, mets, plasmacytoma, etc; accurate characterization of the origin of the lesion is limited given the size. However, very high prolactin levels per the endocrinology team favor an invasive macro-adenoma.

His shock was thought to be related to sepsis from a urinary tract infection. He improved after an extended antibiotic course. His hospital stay was complicated by dependency on a ventilator which resolved with repeated boluses of IV Lasix. He was also found to have elevated transaminases likely secondary to drug injury. ============================= IMPORTANT TRANSITIONAL ISSUES ============================= [ ] Please continue to monitor his LFTs, initially on a daily basis. AST was 96 on discharge and AST was 260. Alk Phos and bilirubin were normal. He developed a transaminitis around ___ that is possibly related to piperacillin/tazobactam, as it improved somewhat when he was transitioned to meropenem. [ ] Please continue meropenem 500mg IV q8hrs for a 7-d course for hospital-associated pneumonia due to pseudomonas resistant to piperacillin/tazobactam. Final day of the 7d course would be ___. [ ] Would continue active diuresis with boluses of 20mg IV Lasix. He had a small increase in his BUN on ___ after diuresis which may indicate developing ___ and ___, but would continue to shoot for net negative until that time. [ ] Needs follow-up with vascular surgery in ___ year for AAA of 3.2cm. [ ] Neurology has placed referral for patient to be seen as an outpatient. Please ensure that he has follow-up within 1 month of discharge. ACUTE ISSUES =============== #Acute on chronic respiratory failure He was initially on trach mask at his facility and placed on a ventilator after admission. He received significant volume resuscitation and was almost 10L positive and was not able to be weaned off the ventilator. He was diuresed with boluses of 20mg IV Lasix or 40mg IV Lasix and on ___ was able to remain on trach mask persistently without evidence of distress. Notably, he was found to have a new RUL and RLL infiltrates concerning for aspiration, and sputum culture grew pseudomonas resistant to piperacillin/tazobactam. He was initially on pip/tazo before this culture resulted and then switched to meropenem on ___ for a planned course ending ___. #Transaminitis Hepatocellualr LFT elevation possibly in the setting of antibiotic use including unasyn and zosyn. He was converted to meropenem as his pseudomonas pneumonia was found to be zosyn resistant and LFTs showed improvement on ___. #Shock #Enterococcus UTI Presented with elevated SvO2, WBC, and fever consistent for septic shock. Likely also component of hypovolemia given his electrolytes at time of presentation and aggressively fluid resuscitated. Treated in the ED with four pressors, stress dose steroids, and broad spectrum antibiotic coverage. Etiology of sepsis likely urinary source with urine growing enterococcus, vanc and amp/sulbactam sensitive. He completed an extended course of treatment for the enterococcus UTI that completed on ___. The last time that he required vasopressors was ___. # Altered mental status # R arm jerking At baseline able to make hand-gestures to communicate and is alert. Initially unresponsive here and with R arm jerking. Loaded with keppra ___. R arm jerking activity is new per family in setting of sepsis. Per neurology resident, epileptiform discharges may have been misinterpreted and per his read there are no discharges on EEG. No evidence of seizures on EEG, just diffuse slowing in area of prior major stroke. Mental status still not improved to baseline by the time of discharged, likely related to delirium and toxic metabolic encephalopathy from pneumonia. Neurology plan to see him as an outpatient and would like to continue keppra at least until that time. Unable to obtain MRI due to the fact that his trach is likely not compatible. #Hypernatremia Likely in setting of poor PO intake and ongoing diarrhea. Increased free water flushes temporarily and his hypernatremia improved. # Coagulopathy # Thrombocytopenia Platelets had nadir of 26 on ___. Suspect related severe sepsis. Fibrinogen was relatively low in setting of sepsis. Automated smear with normal RBCs and no schistocytes. Heme suspects etiology likely related to sepsis. Platelets subsequently returned to normal. ___ on CKD #Hyperchloremia Unclear of baseline, Cr up to 2.4 in setting of prolonged hypotension. Improved s/p IVF. Per records, baseline 1.0 in ___. Hyperchloremia likely ___ RTA. Cr was down to 0.7 on discharge. # DM Elevated BGs at time of presentation in setting of sepsis and recently starting steroids as outpatient. Does not appear to be on any anti-glycemics as outpatient. Maintained on insulin sliding scale here and typically only needed sliding scale once daily. # Macrocytic anemia Unclear of baseline. Concerns for nutritional deficiencies vs. possible liver dysfunction. Folate and B12 found to be normal. CHRONIC ISSUES =============== # AF Held anticoagulation. in setting of low platelets.

The patient was started on vancomycin and ceftazidime for febrile neutropenia and transferred to ___ for further management. Renal US showed mild bilateral pelvocaliectasis with no ultrasound evidence for pyelonephritis, although again, pyelo was diagnosed clinically. Upon arrival to ___, she was initially in the ICU for relative hypotension. However, she stabilized within 24 hours of hospitalization here and was called out the floor, where she continued to improve, with clinical improvement in her back pain, defervescence and clinical stability. Because of chest xray findings, she was continued on vanc/ceftaz to complete an 8 day course for HCAP, then to be transitioned to Cipro for completion of her 14 day treatment course for pyelonephritis. . # Hospital Acquired Pneumonia: Although the patient was asymptomatic from a respiratory perspective, her CXR showed RML pneumonia, and due to her recent hospitalization just 4 weeks ago, the patient was continued on the Vancomycin and Ceftazidime that had been started at OSH on ___. She was discharged with IV antibiotics, to be completed on ___. . # Pyelonephritis: This was diagnosed clinically based on positive urine cultures from OSH, along with fever and CVA tenderness. For her pan sensitive klebsiella, she was treated with vanc/ceftaz (providing coverage for HCAP as above) with the plan to transition her to ciprofloxacin for completion of a 14 day course once finished with IV antibiotics. Her outpatient neurologist, Dr. ___, was contacted during her hospitalization given the risk of seizure threshold lower with a medication such as Cipro, and he felt it was safe for her to complete a course of Cipro. #. Hypotension - Pt was hypotensive on admission, likely secondary to urosepsis vs dehydration in the setting of recent illness, requiring brief ICU stay. Her BP improved s/p 2L NS in the ED and was 103/61 on transfer out of the FICU. . CHRONIC ISSUES: . #. Non-small cell carcinoma- patient currently on docetaxel q3 weeks for palliative purposes.

Brief Hospital Course: Ms ___ is a ___ yr old female with history of breast cancer s/p L mastectomy and axillary LND, 4 cycles chemotherapy and adjuvant XRT who presented with left ___ nerve palsy, found to have innumerable brain mets on MRI. Patient received 5 cycles of whole brain radiation during her admission and was started on steroids. There was no change in her ___ nerve palsy with consistent paralysis of her left lateral gaze. With regards to her pain control regimen, she was seen by palliative care team. Her pain was mainly due to headache and retro-orbital pain. Her opiod regimen was adjusted to standing MS ___ 15 mg q12 hours and PRN ___ morphine. She also received tylenol. Her pain control was good prior to discharge. She was also noted to have some intermittent hallucinations / agitation which were thought likely secondary to her steroids. She was started on olanzapine 2.5 mg daily. There was a family discussion regarding disposition. It was determined that given her brain mets and risk for resumption of alcohol consumption at home, that she be discharged to a facility where she could receive assistance and be more closely monitored. Please see below for discussion of individual issues: #L ___ nerve palsy - Due to brain mets. Patient received 5 cycles of whole brain radiation during her admission and was started on steroids. There was no change in her ___ nerve palsy with consistent paralysis of her left lateral gaze. Patient is on steroid taper (dexamethasone taper (8 mg q12 hours ___, 4mg q12 hours ___, 2 mg q12 hours ___, 1mg q12 hours ___, 0.5 mg q12 hours ___, 0.5 mg daily ___, then off). Patient does not need specific follow up with radiation oncology. # L breast cancer with diffuse metastasis and leptomeningeal disease, s/p mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiation. Likely having recurrence with intracranial lesions as noted above. Patient received whole brain radiation as noted above and was started on dexamethasone with taper upon discharge. Patient's pain regimen was adjusted per palliative care recs - MS contin 15mg Q12h, 7.5-15mg PO morphine Q3h PRN plus acetaminophen. Staging work up negative for metastasis to thorax/abdomen/bones. # Agitation/hallucinations: Patient was noted have visual hallucinations while on dexamethasone and was intermittently anxious and agitated with house staff. Patient was started on dexamethasone taper as noted above and started on zyprexa 2.5 mg daily. #HA - secondary to mets as above. Patient's opioid regimen was adjusted per palliative care recs with improvement in her pain. # Difficulty swallowing: Unclear etiology, however may be ___ to metastatic disease in the brain. Patient was seen by speech and swallow and diet was adjusted per their recommendations to thin liquids, ground solids. # ___: Mild creatinine elevation likely pre-renal given poor PO in take and confusion. Creatinine was 1.2 on day of discharge. #HTN - patient with intermittently elevated BPs while in house. Per patient BPs often run high 150-170s. Pain / steroids may have been contributing. She was continued on her home amlodipine and valsartan. # Diabetes mellitus. Patient's Glipizide was held while in house. Lantus was increased to 40U QHS (from home dose 30U) while on steroids. Patient was also on humalog sliding scale. FSBS were in 100s to low 200s prior to discharge. Recommend careful monitoring of blood sugars after discharge as will require titration of insulin regimen as steroids are tapered. # Hx ETOH abuse - on daily disulfiram at home, was held while inpt as no access to ETOH in hospital. # Chronic hepatitis C - continued home lamivudine treatment. LFTs wnl. # Hx Atrial arrhythmia: was in NSR on admission. Previously was tried on anticoagulation with a novel anticoagulant, however, discontinued the medication as she felt like she was experiencing adverse effects. She was on full-dose aspirin for stroke prophylaxis at home and carvedilol for rate control. Aspirin discontinued in setting of brain mets. Carvedilol held while in house, will discharge on lower dose given adequate rate control and blood pressure while in house. # Chronic pain left breast - residual since radiation - continued pain control as above with MS ___ and ___ morphine and tylenol. Held ibuprofen due to bleeding risk. # Chronic shoulder pain s/p rotator cuff surgery - gave meds for pain control as above, tylenol, held ibuprofen due to bleeding risk. # Depression: continued on sertraline. # Conjunctivitis: Continued with erythromycin ointment & artificial tears.

Brief Hospital Course: ___ with hx of Afib, recurrent GI Bleeds of unknown etiology who presents with BRBPR s/p CTA without embolization with ___. #Gastrointestinal bleeding, presumed diverticular: Patient presented with large bowel movement and clots. He has a history of multiple GI bleeds over the last ___ years. He estimates that he has had ___ bleeding events in his life, about 4 of which have required hospitalizeations. He has had an extensive workup including multiple colonoscopies, capsule endoscopy, nuclear scans, all of which have not identified a bleed. Exam in ED notable for rectal with dark red blood with clots, guaiac positive, no external hemorrhoids noted. Labs notable for Hgb 13.7 (which subsequently dropped to 9.4). Patient underwent CTA which was notable for active extravasation at the hepatic flexure. Patient was taken the ___ suite for arteriogram. In the ___ suite, initially saw active extrav. again in R colon, but the vessel going there was tortuous and there was question of spasm vs dissection with wire. No embolization was completed but extravasation stopped. Patient did drop SBPs to ___ and was given IVF and 2units PRBCs. Patient was transferred to ICU and had stable BP and H/H. He was transferred to medical floor where h/h remained stable. Colorectal surgery evaluated the patient for consideration of elective colectomy, but he preferred to follow up further as an outpatient. #AFIB - His home Metoprolol and Dilt were started at lower, short acting doses initially given hemodynamic instability. After his pressures stablized, these were restarted. He had one episode of Afib with RVR during which he was hemodynamically stable. This likely occurred because he was on lower doses of dilt which were spaced q8 hours. It resolved with 5 IV metop x2 and did not recur. CHRONIC ISSUES: #HTN - home losartan was held in setting of acute bleed. #GERD - continued home omeprazole 20mg qD #Insomnia - continued home trazodone PRN ========================== TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ========================== [ ] Recurrent GI bleeds: He will need to follow up closely with colorectal surgery for consideration of elective partial or total colectomy. [ ] Recommend checking a blood count at next PCP visit as pt continued to have small amounts of dark red blood in his stool at discharge. [ ] Incidental Finding: Partially imaged 4.0 x 3.6 cm cyst adjacent to the pericardium may represent a pericardial cyst. This could be further assessed by dedicated chest CT or MRI. [ ] Incidental Finding: 1.7 cm indeterminate left renal lesion for which further evaluation with non-urgent renal ultrasound is recommended. [ ] Discharge hemoglobin: 10.5.
