Chief Complaint:
Chest pain
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
Coronary catheterization with Percutaneous Coronary Intervetion
to proximal left anterior descending artery with placement of
Drug Eluding Stent in the middle left anterior descending
History of Present Illness:
___ y/o M hx of HPL, and MI ___ with 90% stenosis of mid-RCA s/p
BMS and ___ rheolytic thrombectomy and 90% mid-LAD stenosis s/p
DES to LAD who presented to the ED after sudden onset of chest
pressure this am while working in his yard. His symptoms were
typical of prior episodes when he was having a MI. He was
sweating profusely and have crushing, non-radiating chest pain.
He says that over the last few weeks he was getting more
fatigued with activities he was usually able to do with no
problem. Per his wife, with the onset of the chest pressure, he
started sweating more than usual and they knew he was having a
heart attack. He stated that he tried a SL nitro with no
relief, but his prescription was ___ year old. Per his wife he
also appeared to lose consciousness for a few minutes while in
the car, but was arousable. He was taken by truck back to the
house and EMS was called, an EKG was notable for ST elevations
and a code STEMI was called.
He was taken directly to the cath lab where had systolic BPs
ranging from 80-96/50-60s, he recieved 210 cc contrast, was
loaded with Plavix 600mg, and started on heparin drip. LHC via
the right radial artery revealed 100% occlusion of the mid-LAD
within the prior stent. This was stented with a DES. In
addition, there was a 80% stenosis of the origin of the diagonal
branch within the LAD stent. There was a 3 mm segment of
intraluminal filling defect 15 mm distal to the stent likely
representing embolized thrombus and patient was started on
integrilin drip.
Vitals on transfer were 93/66 90 42 92% on 3L.
.
On arrival to the floor, patient stable, he had complaints of
residual chest discomfort with exhalation, but much improved.
He described is "when you just had a headache and it goes a way,
you know you had a headache not too long ago". Otherwise he had
no c/o SOB, cough, arm, neck or jaw pain. Denies f/c, n/v,
abdominal pain, ___ edema.

(___) CATH: ASSESSMENT
Coronary angiography: right dominant
.
LMCA: Normal
.
LAD: 100% occlusion of the mid LAD within the prior stent.
There was a 80% stenosis of the origin of the diagonal branch
within the LAD stent. The distal LAD was a large disbtribution
vessel that supplied the apex. There were small ___ and ___
diagonal branches that supplied the anterolateral wall.
.
LCX: The proximal and distal LCx had minimal lumen
irregularities. Threw was a large OMB that supplied the
posterolater wall. It was free of significant disease.
.
RCA: The RCA stent was widely patent. The was a 50% margin
stenosis distal to the stent that supplied a large PDA branch
and medium size posterolateral branches.
.
Interventional details
.
The indication for the procedure was an anterior STEMI.
.
The procedure was performed from the right radial artery without
complications
.
Unfractionated heparin was used to achieve an ACT > 250 seconds.
Eptifibatide was given as a double bolus.
.
Using a ___ XB3.5 guiding catheter and a 0.014 OTW BMW wire, the
LAD was dilated with a 2.5 mm balloon. There was lesion
rigidity in the distal portion of then stent and a 2.75 mm x 12
mm Apex NC balloon was used to fully expand the stent. A 2.0
mm balloon was used to dilated the diagonal branch prior to
additional stent implantation. A 2.75 mm x 14 mm Resolute
drug eluting stent was then deployed within the stent and was
post dilated with a 3.0 mm balloon to 22 atms pressure. This
resulted in no residual stenosis within the stent and TIMI 3
flow into the distal vessel.
.
There was a 50-60% stenosis of the origin of the diagonal branch
but TIMI 3 flow into the distal vessel.
.
There was a 3 mm segment of intraluminal filling defect 15 mm
distal to the stent that likely represented embolized thrombus.
It was laminar and seen in the ___ but not the ___ projections.
It will be treated with continued antiplatelet therapy and
GPIIB-IIIa antagonists for 18 hours. Consideration for long
term anticoagulation with warfarin with evidence of an LV
aneurysm.
.
The patient was painfree at the end of the procedure, but the
EKG showed improved but persistent ST elevation in the anterior
precordial leads.
.
ASSESSMENT
1.Anterior ST elevation due to LAD stent occlusion
2.Successful drug-eluting stent of the mid LAD
PLAN
1.Aspirin 325 mg daily for one month then 81 mg daily
thereafter
2.Plavix 75 mg daily
3.Eptifibatide infusion x 18 hours
4.Echocardiogram for LV akinesis: consider anti-coagulation
Brief Hospital Course:
___ man with CAD s/p PCI to mRCA ___, mLAD ___, PTCA of
mLAD ISR and diag ___, and colon CA s/p colectomy ___ presenting
with substernal chest pressure while working in the yard. This
is in the setting of increasing fatigue with daily activities.
He presented to the ED where his ECG was consistent with an
anterior STEMI and he was taken emergently to the cath lab.
.
## STEMI - Left heart cath showed an occlusion of the mid-LAD at
the site of a previous stent, 80% stenosis at the diag origin,
and a 50% margin stenosis distal to the RCA stent. A
drug-eluting stent was placed in the mid LAD with TIMI 3 flow
into the distal vessel following stent placement. The patient
had persistent ST elevations and Q-waves on post-procedure ECG
suspicious for LV dyskinesis. He was started on an Integrilin
gtt intraop x 18 hours total. Started on Heparin gtt after
Integrellin given risk of developing LV Mural thrombus. Pt had
an Echo on ___ that showed Mild symmetric left ventricular
hypertrophy with regional left ventricular dysfunction(akinesis)
c/w LAD territory MI. Preserved right ventricular function. No
pathologic valvular disease. Based on this finding the patient
was started on Warfarin with a Lovenox bridge. We continued the
patient on Plavix 75mg daily, ASA 81mg daily, Metoprolol XL
150mg daily, atorvastatin 80mg/day. Lisinopril was started on
___, 2.5mg daily. Given extensive CAD history, patient may
benefit from ICD to decrease risk of SCD, will need to consider
in > 90 days. His lisinopril could be uptitrated in the future
and spironolactone could be initiated if his BP allows these
medication changes.

Discharge Instructions:
Mr. ___,
You were admitted for chest pain, which was due to a heart
attack. You were evaluated by cardiologist and they performed a
procedure that involved opening the blocked vessel and placing a
drug eluting stent. After the procedure you had an
echocardiogram of the heart that showed the poor movement of the
left and lower side of the heart. This poor movement increases
your risk of developing a clot in that part of your heart. To
prevent clot formation, you will need to take a blood thinner
medicine called Warfarin. This is in addition to the Plavix and
Aspirin. You will need to have blood levels of the Warfarin
checked regularly and communicate with the ___
clinic at ___ about those results. You will need to
use the Lovenox injections until the blood level of Warfarin
(called INR) is between 2.0 - 3.0. You can stop Lovenox
injections at that time when the ___ clinic says it
is OK.
Please stop smoking. Continuing smoking will significantly
increase your risk for additional heart attacks, and strokes,
not to mention the risks of multiple cancers.
Because your heart is weak, please weigh yourself every day in
the morning before breakfast. Call Dr. ___ weight
increases more than 3 pounds in 1 day or 5 pounds in 3 days.
Watch for trouble breathing and your legs for signs of swelling.
Call Dr. ___ you notice any of those symptoms.
MEDICATIONS:
START Warfarin 5mg by mouth daily, change dose after discussion
with your PCP
START ___ 75mg/day and Aspirin 81mg/day, do not
miss any doses or stop taking this medicine unless Dr. ___
that it is OK.
START Lovenox ___ injection twice daily

Brief Hospital Course:
Patient is a ___ year old male with history of large anterior
STEMI in ___ (Tx w/ DES to LAD, subsequent LV
akinesis now on coumadin, EF ___, nephrolithiasis in the
past who was transferred this AM from ___ with a 4x6mm
obstructing ureteral stone, hematuria, and hematocirt drop.
#. GI bleed resulting in anemia: Patient was noted to have a 14
point hematocrit drop at the OSH. He had a CT abdomen/pelvis
that did not show a retroperitoneal bleed. The patient was
guaiac positive upon admission. He was placed on a PPI drip and
received vitamin K. He also received 2 units of pRBCs during
this admission. His HCT was trended daily and remained stable.
He had no bowel movement during this admission. GI was consulted
in light of his 14 point HCT drop. He was taken for EGD, which
showed no active signs of bleeding through the duodenem.
Biopsies were taken; biopsies of the duodenum showed chronic
inactive duodenitis, with foveolar metaplasia. Gastric biopsies
were benign. The patient was discharged on PPI and had follow-up
appointment arranged with his outpatient gatroenterologist
regarding this admission for GI bleed to address the need for
colonsocopy versus push enteroscopy to visualize the rest of the
patient's small bowel.
.
#. Nephrolithiasis: Patient initially presented to OSH with
pain/symptoms that were consistent with nephrolithiasis in the
past. CT scan at the OSH showed obsturction with hydorureter and
hydornephrosis. The patient was treated conservatively with pain
medication and Flomax initially. Serum creatinine was noted to
increase during the admission; Urology was going to take the
patient for ureteral stent placement. However, the patient
passed his stone, and no procedure was necessary. With passage
of the stone, the patient's serum creatinine was noted to be
downtrending. Patient was encouraged to follow-up with his PCP
or ask for a referal to nephrology for follow-up regarding his
kidney stones.
#. Anterior STEMI: The patient had a large anterior MI ___
and remained on aspirin and Plavix throughout this admission. He
was on Coumadin for prophylaxis of mural thrombus. Review of TTE
fomr previous admission showed that there was no mural thrombus
in the left ventricle. During this admission, the patient was
given Vitamin K and warfarin was held in light of his GI bleed.
Beta blocker was initially held, but restarted when there was no
evidence of active bleeding (appropriate increase in hematocrit
to 2 units of pRBCs and stable hemodyanmics). Lisinopril was
restarted at low dose, 2.5mg daily on day of discharge.
Outpatient follow-up with the patient's Cardiologist so that
discussion regarding reinitiation of warfarin in the setting of
reduced EF but known source of GI bleeding could be had. Upon
discharge, patient's cardiologist was made aware that the
patient's warfarin was discontinued.

Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
It was a pleasure taking care of you during your hospitalization
at ___.
You were hospitalized because of kidney stones and found to have
a new anemia (low red blood cell count). This anemia was
attributed to a bleed in your gastroentestinal tract as a result
of the combination of aspirin, Plavix, and coumadin that you
were started on after your heart attack. You received 2 units of
blood while hospitalized, and your red blood cell level remained
stable. You had an EGD that did not show evidence of active
bleeding which is good news.
In the interim, we recommend that you continue a medication
called pantoprazole, which will help prevent GI bleeding.
Discuss with your gastroenterologist when to stop this
medication.
Continue taking aspirin and Plavix EVERY DAY as you had been
doing prior to this hospitalization. STOP taking coumadin (also
known as warfarin) as the risk of bleeding is greater than it's
benefit at the present time. Follow-up with your cardiologist
about re-starting coumadin.
Keep all hospital follow-up appointments. Your ___
hospital follow-up appointments are provided in a list for you
in your discharge paperwork.
Weigh yourself every morning, call MD if weight goes up more
than 3 lbs.

PER ADMITTING RESIDENT:
___ is a ___ year old right handed male with a
history of hypertension and prostate cancer who presented after
acute onset of right sided weakness and slurred speech. Mr.
___
awoke this morning in his usual state of health and then around
6:30am while driving to the grocery store had sudden onset chest
pain and then developed difficulty speaking and right sided
weakness. He does not remember the exact details after the

IMAGING:
.
CT head ___ 12:03pm:
IMPRESSION: Interval evolution of known left thalamic hemorrhage
with
slightly increased surrounding parenchymal edema. Similar
appearance of
hemorrhagic extension into the ventricle system with mild,
approximately 2 mm rightward shift of normally midline
structures. Slight asymmetric enlargement of the left lateral
ventricle appears similar to the prior examination.
Repeat CT head ___ 6:30pm:
IMPRESSION: Overall, no significant change from the study of
roughly six hours earlier, with:
1. Unchanged left thalamic hemorrhage with stable surrounding
edema and
minimal rightward shift of normally-midline structures.
2. Transependymal "dissection" of hemorrhage into the
ventricular system, as before, with no evidence of hydrocephalus
at this time.
CXR ___:
Heart size and mediastinum are unremarkable. Lungs are
essentially clear. No pleural effusion or pneumothorax
demonstrated.
.
MRI Head without Contrast (___):
IMPRESSION: Left thalamic hemorrhage, centered at the left
pulvinar as
described in detail above, relatively stable since the most
recent head CT
dated ___. A small amount of intraventricular
hemorrhage is
identified on the left occipital ventricular horn. Scattered
foci of high
signal intensity are visualized in the subcortical and
periventricular white matter, which are nonspecific and may
suggest chronic microvascular ischemic disease.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old right handed man with a history of hypertension and
remote prostate cancer who presented ___ with acute onset
right hemiparesis, hemibody sensory deficits and expressive
language deficits. He was found to have a left thalamic
hemorrhage with intraventricular extension on head CT. His
initial examination was siginificant for word finding
difficulties and confabulation, mild right facial weakness,
flaccid right arm, profoundly weak right leg with hemisensory
loss to all modalities on the right and hyperreflexia on the
right. Neurosurgery was consulted in the ED and did not feel
there was any indication for acute intervention at the time. The

History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year old M w/ hx of idiopathic recurrent
pancreatitis ___ episodes since ___ y.o.), celiac disease, and
remote h/o hep C who is presenting with acute on chronic
abdominal pain for ___ days.
Patient states that he has chronic abdominal pain that is fairly
mild, ___ in intensity, and described as "nagging" in the
epigastrium. This has been present since the Pt was ___ years
old
to some degree, when his pancreatitis first started; however, it
has been constant for the past year. Pt generally manages this
chronic pain with OTC ibuprofen or the occasional 5mg oxycodone
BID-TID:PRN that his primary care prescribes him.
Over the past ___ days, the patient's pain has risen acutely to
a
___ in intensity. It is a similar pain character, with
additional "sharp/acidic" components. It radiates to the back
and RLQ/R flank. This pain is intermittent, made worse with
deep
breathing and any food/drink (generally 10 minutes or so after
eating). It has not been relieved by home Tylenol or ibuprofen.
The patient has decreased his PO intake over the past few days
to
just sips of water, because food has so reliably made his pain
worse; in spite of this, his pain persists.
Patient was trying to hold out until his follow-up with General
Surgery on ___ (with Dr. ___ for discussion of surgical
management of his ongoing pancreatitis. However, his pain
became
more severe - and he also began to notice other symptoms
(including nausea, two episodes of nonbloody clear vomiting, and
___ stools) that prompted him to present earlier. He
called his primary gastroenterologist's office (Dr. ___,
who
encouraged him to come to ___ for further evaluation by his
primary teams.
Of note, the patient has had an extensive workup for the cause
of
his pancreatitis in the past including genetic testing, IgG
subclasses, sweat testing (see outpatient GI notes) which have
thus far been unrevealing. During prior admissions for acute on
chronic pancreatitis, he responded well to IV Zofran and
Dilaudid
(he occasionally takes home oxycodone for pain as discussed
above).

# Epigastric pain
# Chronic Pancreatitis
The patient presented with ___ days of worsening epigastric, RUQ
pain, and acholic stools. Lipase was not elevated. RUQUS showed
no evidence of cholelithiasis or biliary dilatation. CTA of the
abdomen additionally showed no evidence of acute pancreatitis,
no biliary obstruction, and chronic pancreatic ductal dilatation
up to 4mm. He was evaluated by GI as well as ___ Surgery.
His pain was treated with APAP, ketorolac, oxycodone up to 15mg
Q4H, and IV hydromorphone up to 1mg Q3H PRN for breakthrough
pain. This regimen was weaned over the hospital course and he
was discharged on oxycodone taper (15 5mg tabs) and APAP PRN. At
time of discharge he was tolerating a regular diet with no
issues. He was also started on gabapentin 300mg TID for his
chronic pancreatic pain. Notably, records from ___ state that
the patient is heterozygous for N291 mutation in cationic
trypsinogen (T PRSS1).
# Constipation
The patient was noted to have last BM several days prior to
admission, likely secondary to narcotics and decreased PO
intake. He was started on a bowel regimen including senna,
bisacodyl, polyethylene glycol. He was discharged with plan to
continue senna, polyethylene glycol as needed.

Chest Xray ___:
FINDINGS: The heart is moderately enlarged. There is mild
prominence of pulmonary vascularity and interstitium without
frank pulmonary edema. Patchy opacity in the lingula is linear
and suggests atelectasis. Small bilateral pleural effusions are
suspected. The lungs are hyperinflated. There is a mild lower
thoracic wedge compression deformity that appears chronic and
correlates with the prior CT findings. Mild degenerative
changes involve the right shoulder.
IMPRESSION: Moderate cardiomegaly and findings suggesting mild
vascular congestion.
RHC/LHC ___:
- clean coronary artery
- PCWP 30 mmHg
- PASP 53 mmHg
TTE ___:
IMPRESSION: Biatrial enlargement. Mildly dilated left ventricle
with mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with severe
global left ventricular systolic dysfunction/dyskinesis.
Increased left ventricular filling pressure. Dilated,
hypokinetic right ventricle. Mildly dilated aortic root. There
is the suggestion of a moderately thickened, functionally
bicuspid aortic valve. Aortic stenosis may be present, but in
the setting of extensive calcification and markedly depressed
left ventricular systolic function its severity cannot be
quantitatively determined, but is unlikely to be severe. Mild
aortic regurgitation. Mild mitral regurgitation. Borderline
pulmonary artery systolic hypertension.
EKG ___:
Sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia. Left bundle branch block.
Since the
previous tracing of ___, there are probably fewer atrial
premature beats on the present tracing.
Microbiology:
___ Blood culture - final no growth
___ Urine culture - final no growth
Brief Hospital Course:
PRIMARY REASON FOR ADMISSION:
Mr. ___ is a ___ who has not seen a physician in over ___ years
and no diagnosis of cardiac disease, presents with one month of
progressive chest pressure and dyspnea on exertion, found to
have systolic CHF with EF 15%.
ACTIVE DIAGNOSES:
# New Diagnosis of Systolic Congestive Heart Failure (EF 15%):
EF 15% on TTE this admission, last TTE in ___ was normal.
There is no evidence of ischemic cardiomyopathy on LHC. Current
workup is notable for no HIV, normal TSH, normal iron levels.
Thiamine level to assess for beriberi is pending. Most likely
EtOH induced cardiomyopathy. Patient states he drinks ___ cans
beer/night, ___ on the weekend, margaritas when he goes
out to restaurants on the weekend, and 2 six packs/weekend.
LFTs are unremarkable. He is not anemic, no macrocytosis. He
was initially aggresively diuresed with IV lasix 20mg bid for
two days, was -2.5 to 3.5L every day. He was then switched to
lasix 40mg PO daily, when he started to become alkalotic with
diuresis. By discharge, his lower extremity pitting edema had
decreased from 3+ to mid-thights to 1+ to mid-shins. He was
started on carvedilol 3.125 daily and lisinopril 10mg daily.
Prior to discharge, he was also started on spironolactone 12.5mg
daily.
# Hyperkalemia: Patient was hyperkalemic to 5.5 in the morning
on the day of discharge. This was the first time he has been
hyperkalemic during admission, likely related to increasing his
lisinopril from 5 to 10mg, and diuresing less aggressively.
Repeat K+ in afternoon was normal. Patient was then started on
low dose spironolactone on discharge for mortality benefit for
___. He will need to get his K rechecked at his next PCP
___.
# Stable Angina: Patient presented withs ymptoms of chest
pressure on exertion, always resolves with rest. This is likely
secondary to CHF, as patient was found to have clean coronaries
on left heart catheteruzation. Cardiac enzymes negative x3.
# Elevated Lactate: Lactate was elevated on admission, likely
related to decreased renal clearance secondary to low forward
flow. Resolved with diuresis.
==================================
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
- Please follow up on pending thiamine level at discharge. This
was ordered to assess for beriberi as a cause of new
cardiomyopathy.
- Please follow up on patient's K during next PCP ___
few days after discharge, because patient was just started on
lisinopril and spironolactone.
Medications on Admission:
none

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___
___. You were admitted with chest pain and shortness
of breath after walking, as well as swelling in your legs. We
diagnosed you with congestive heart failure based on an
echocardiogram (ultrasound of your heart) that found your heart
does not squeeze that well. We started you on some medications
and helped you urinate more with a medication called lasix. We
think you have lost most of the extra fluid on your body, and
your breathing and chest pain are much improved. We think you
are now safe to go home. You should follow up with your new
primary care doctor and cardiologist to monitor your heart, and
you should also stop drinking alcohol, because this is likely
reponsible for your heart condition.
Please make the following changes to your medications:
- Please START taking Carvedilol, Lisinopril, and Spironolactone
for your heart failure
- Please START taking Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamine), Vitamin B1
(thiamine), folate, and a multivitamin every day for nutritional
supplementation.
- Please take Lasix 40mg every day to keep fluid from
accumulating in your legs and lungs
Weigh yourself every morning, call MD if weight goes up more
than 3 lbs.

IMAGING
========
___ CXR: "IMPRESSION:
Moderate cardiomegaly increased from ___, with increased mild
interstitial
edema. No large pleural effusion."
___: cardiac cath: "impressions: moderate pulmonary artery
hypertension with a mean PAP 36 mmHg. There was elevation of the
right and left heart filling pressures."
___ shoulder xray: "FINDINGS:
There is deformity of the right proximal humerus with a surgical
neck of
humerus fracture. This is age indeterminate as the margins
appear somewhat
ill-defined and there is likely some callus formation. The
fracture line
appears to extend through the greater tuberosity. There is mild
impaction of
the fracture. Inferior subluxation of the humeral head relative
to the
glenoid. A linear lucency through the glenoid is likely related
to
degenerative change as there is moderate degenerative change at
the
glenohumeral joint although a fracture cannot be excluded."
Brief Hospital Course:
Pt. was admitted and diuresed. After addition of ACEi and CCB
as well as significant diuresis, he became hypotensive and was
transferred to CCU on ___ for asymptomatic hypotension, with
SBP in the low ___. He had a PAC placed, which showed a PCWP of
23 and CVP of 4, with CI 2.2. He was briefly trialed on
dobutamine, without improvement of hemodynamics. His hypotension
was ultimately attributed to diuresis, since patient was
actually ~1kg below previous discharge weight. He was given
500cc NS with resolution of hypotension. He again became
hypotensive after a dose of captopril, so all antihypertensives
were discontinued. He was transferred to the floor on ___. He
returned to the unit in the afternoon of ___ for hypotension
and elevated lactate. Hypotesnion thought likely due to
hypovolemia in setting of overdiuresis. He was given IVF total
750cc with subsequent reduction in lactate and increase in UOP.
He was also started on nitro gtt for afterload reduction and on
dobutamine at 2.5cc/hr. Nitro gtt discontinued on ___. Patient
also with ___, shock liver, and INR of 5.5, all likely ___ shock
physiology. BUN/Ct, LFTs, and INR improved with volume
resuscitation. For Afib, he was continued on home digoxin and
amiodarone. His home beta blocker was held in light of
hypotension. He was briefly on the floor, but on ___ he again
returned to ___ for concern for cardiogenic shock in setting of
cold extremities, low urine output, and rising lactate. Of
note, patient had not received hydralazine or isordil as they
were ordered to be held for SBP<110. Hydralazine then increased
to 30 mg, isordil to 20 mg, and on transfer to CCU, patient
stable w/ warm extremities. On exam, patient appeared volume
overloaded (1.2 kg up since leaving CCU) so given lasix 40 mg IV
x 1 with good effect.
Patient came back to the floor ___. His hydralazine and isordil
doses were increased. Restarted on home torsemide. Since then,
the patient has been improving. He underwent cardioversion for
his Afib on ___, the procedure was successful and he is in
sinus rhythm. We have held warfarin the past night ___
because INR was 4.3. ON discharge, INR 4.2. He was euvolemic
with plans for BiV pacing as outpatient now that sinus rhythm
restored.
Of note, patient also has a stable R humerus fracture that will
need f/u with orthopedic surgery. Pt has been in sling and
stable this admission.
Transitional care:
- Plan for BiV pacing now that sinus rhythm established.
- Pt. should continue anticoagulation indefinitely.
- Continue to f/u INR and digoxin levels and adjust meds
respectively.
- Warfarin administration: Do NOT take warfarin tonight ___.
Continue on ___. Rehab should monitor INR and redose
warfarin appropriately with goal INR ___.
- Given right humerous fracture, pt. should keep arm in sling
and remain non-weight bearing in that limb.
- Code status: FULL
- Health care proxy: ___, niece, ___

associated with 2 blood clots. In emergency department, the
patient was started on IV pantoprazole. The patient's hematocrit
was trended during the admission; her hematocrit was noted to
have fallen, but the patient's hematocrit remained stable at 32
and asymptomatic. The patient's diet was advanced. H. pylori
serology was sent, which was pending on day of discharge. The
patient was also started on ranitidine 300mg for 7 days. Given
that the patient is currently breastfeeding, the lactation
consultants were contacted and confirmed that maternal
ranitidine would not be expected to cause any adverse effects in
breastfed infants.

Brief Hospital Course:
SUMMARY: ___ year old man with history of Crohn's disease s/p
multiple bowel resections complicated by short gut syndrome on
chronic TPN who is admitted for fevers, found to have high grade
yeast fungemia.
.
# Fungemia: Most likely source is line infection secondary to
chronic TPN. His PICC line was pulled, the patient was started
on micafungin. After 48 hours of negative cultures, a double
lumen PICC line was placed. Infectious disease recommended a 2
week course of micafungin, with plans to follow-up
sensitivities. Ophthalmology did not see evidence of eye
involvement, and a TTE did not show evidence of endocarditis.
The patient will complete a course of micafungin and at that
time consideration of a tunneled line will take place. Dr. ___
will work with the patient and IV team to arrange this.
.
# Back pain: The patient did have back spasms, which was
evaluated with an MRI (without gadolinium as the patient could
not tolerate longer in the machine). This did not show evidence
of infection. He should have a repeat MRI with gadolinium
within two weeks of discharge. He was treated with a lidocaine
patch and oxycodone
.
# CAD: Patient has likely chronic CAD based on TTE and EKG
consistent with inferior wall hypokinesis. Dr. ___ was
contacted and felt the patient was ok for primary ASA
prophylaxis from a gastroenterology standpoint. THe patient
preferred to see a cardiologist as an outpatient closer to his
home and not at ___.
.
# Crohn's Disease: C/b short gut syndrome. TPN held. THe
patient became hemoconcentrated on the day of discharge, and was
given 1L IVF. Plan to restart TPN with home infusion company.
Continued budesonide, cholestyramine, codeine, loperamide,
ursodiol and vitamin D.
.
# CKD: Remained at recent baseline Cr of 1.5-1.7
.
# Diabetes: Intially held lantus given the patient was not using
TPN, however he became hyperglycemic so this was restarted.
#HTN: Continued hydralazine, carvedilol
#GERD: Continued ranitidine and omeprazole
#HL: Continued atorvastatin 10mg daily, ezetimibe, gemfibrozil
#Depression: Continued duloxetine
#Gout: Chronic, continued allopurinol
.

TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
-Infectious disease to follow-up ___ sensitivity, and
contact the patient if the organism is not sensitive to
micafungin.
-If fungemia recurs, will need repeat TEE
-Tunneled PICC line consideration after 2 week course of
micafungin
-Patient needs cardiology referral (prefers to be seen close to
home, not ___
-Will need MRI of the thoracic and lumbar spine with gadolinium
within the next two weeks (prior to stopping micafungin) to
definitively rule out osteomyelitis.
-Blood cultures to be drawn 1 week after discharge, with the
results sent to the infectious disease team (Dr. ___ Dr.

Discharge Diagnosis:
Primary:
Fungemia
Secondary:
Crohn's disease
Discharge Condition:
Mental Status: Clear and coherent.
Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted after being noted to have a fever in
___ clinic. We felt this was most likely related
to an infection of your PICC line, and so this line was removed.
You also had yeast in your blood, which likely caused the
fever. We are treating you with a medicine to kill the yeast.
It will be VERY important for you to take good care of your new
PICC line. This means wearing gloves, sterilizing the line
before using, keeping your ostomy supplies separate from your
PICC line supplies, and following the instructions of the nurses
who help with your TPN. This will help prevent future infections
which could make you very, very sick.
You also had some findings on the ultrasound of your heart and
your EKG that require that you follow-up with a cardiology
doctor as an outpatient. You should speak with your primary care
doctor regarding this, as you may need a "stress test" to
evaluate your heart.
Please note the following medication changes:
-Please take ranitidine, 300mg, at night (this is a change from
taking 150mg in the morning and 150mg in the evening)
-Please START Micafungin IV daily until ___. The
infectious disease doctors ___ be following the data from your
blood culture to make sure that this medication effectively
treats your infection. If it does not, you may hear from them
about starting a different medication
-Please START Lidocaine patch for your back pain
-Please START Aspirin once daily (81mg) for your heart
-Please START oxycodone for back pain. This medication can be
dangerous with your fentanyl patch, and you should be very
careful to not drink alcohol or drive when using this
medication. If you are feeling more sleepy or confused than
usual, you should also not use this medication.

Crohn's disease c/b multiple SBOs ___ years ago, s/p
proctocolectomy with end ileostomy, and short gut syndrome,
TPN-dependent. Crohn's disease had been relatively quiescent
until he started smoking again a few years ago. Admitted in
___ with Crohn's exacerbation, at which time biologic agents
such as anti-TNF were being considered. However, a highly
atypical prostate nodule was seen on MR, and biopsy was
recommended prior to proceeding with biologic therapy, given
risk of malignancy. He underwent prostate biopsy, which showed
HGPIN. Urology recommended prostatectomy, and he underwent
radical retropubic prostatectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy on
___.

unwell the following day. He felt tired and weak, stayed in bed,
"lost a whole day." Poor appetite with occ N/V, too weak to
connect himself to TPN for several days. He developed worsening
lower abdominal pain, different from Crohn's pain, as well as
headache. Denies F/C, SOB, CP or cough. Frequency of loose,
brown BMs increased over last few days bc unable to take his
meds (loperamide, hyoscyamine) but no blood. Pt feels worse than

CT Abdomen and Pelvis: ___
HISTORY: Bilateral lower quadrant abdominal pain after surgery
for prostate
cancer (per the ___ medical record surgery was ___.
Evaluate for
intra-abdominal abscess or worsening Crohn's disease.
TECHNIQUE: MDCT-axial images were acquired from the dome of the
liver to the
pubic symphysis without the administration of IV contrast given
renal
insufficiency. Oral contrast was administered. Coronal and
sagittal
reformations were provided and reviewed.
DLP: 842.42 mGy/cm.
COMPARISON: CT abdomen pelvis ___.
FINDINGS:
Abdomen: The imaged lung bases show mild bronchiectasis at the
left lung
base. There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. The heart
is normal in
size and there is no pericardial effusion.
Evaluation of the intra-abdominal contents is limited by lack of
intravenous
contrast. Within this limitation the pancreas and adrenal
glands are
unremarkable. The spleen is enlarged, measuring 14.9 cm in the
craniocaudal
dimension, decreased from 17 cm. The gallbladder is surgically
absent.
Hypodensities within the liver likely reflect focal fat (2:19,
26). A 4.8 cm
simple cyst within the right kidney is unchanged. There is no
definte
solid-appearing lesion within the left kidney seen on this
study. Otherwise,
there is no hydronephrosis or nephrolithiasis. There is no
retroperitoneal or
mesenteric lymphadenopathy. Dense calcifications are seen at
the origin of
the superior mesenteric artery and left renal artery.
The stomach is normal. Contrast has progressed to the
ileostomy. There is no
bowel wall thickening or evidence for obstruction. The patient
is status post
a total proctocolectomy. There is no extraluminal contrast,
free fluid or
free air.
Pelvis: A 2.9 x 2.7 cm fluid collection anterior to the aortic
bifurcation is
unchanged from ___. There are extensive postsurgical changes
within the
pelvis, including stranding, clips and air (2:80). There is no
discrete fluid
collection. A Foley catheter and air are seen within the
bladder. There is
no pelvic lymphadenopathy.
Bones: There are no concerning sclerotic foci.
IMPRESSION:
1. Postsurgical changes in the pelvis from recent
prostatectomy. The absence
of contrast limits the evaluation for abscess, however, there is
no new
discrete fluid collection.
2. Decrease in size of splenomegaly.
.
Cystogram ___
FINDINGS: Scout radiographs demonstrate multiple surgical clips
in the pelvis
and Foley catheter in situ. The bladder was slowly filled with
water soluble
contrast. Oblique and lateral views reveal extravasation of
contrast from the
posterior base of the bladder. A track of contrast
approximately 1 cm in
width connects the base of the bladder to a 5.8 x 1.7 cm
collection in the
presacral space.
IMPRESSION: Urine leak from the posterior base of the bladder
communicates
with a 5.8 x 1.___LOOD CX (___) 1 of 2: gram positive cocci in pairs and chains
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with long standing Crohns on TPN, recent prostatectomy,
presents with malasie and weakness and found to have klebsiella
and proteus UTI in the setting of a post-surgical urinary leak.
ACTIVE ISSUES:
# Prostate CA s/p Prostatectomy with Urinary Leak: The patient
presented with malaise and weakness in the setting of a UTI (see
below). During the admission Urology was consulted and upon
urostogram evaluation was found to have a urinary leak. A foley
was placed. The patient will f/u in ___ clinic this week.
.
# Klebsiella and Proteus UTI: Secondary to recent prostatectomy
with indwelling Foley; No evidence pyelonephritis on
non-contrast CT but some systemic symptoms concerning. The
klebsiella dn proteus were pan-sensistive (with exception to
nitrofurantoin). The patient was treated for 7 days while in
house (first via IV and then switched to PO) with instruutions
to continue the antobiotics through urology follow-up this week.
.
# Malaise and Wakness: Presnted with with marked hypovolemia,
UTI. Improved with IVF and antibiotoics.
.
# Strep Viridans Bacteremia: In ___ bottles out of one culture.
No evidence of line infection or clinical signs of endocarditis.
The patient received 3 days of CTX but this was discontinued
when the bacteremia was considered to be contaminant.
.
# ___: Patient with ___ (Cr up to 2.2 from 1.5) that was likel
yprerenal secondary to marked hypovolemia due to poor po intake
and lack of TPN. The patient should resume his home TPN and IVF
while at home.
.
# Abdominal Pain: Thought to be secondary to urinary leak.
Clinically stable. The patient was provided a script for 60 x
10mg Oxycodone pills and instructed not to drive or operate
machinery on the medication.
.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
# Crohn's disease w short gut syndrome: Recently increased
diarrhea likely secondary to inability to take antimotility
agents, less likely evolving Crohn's flare. Restarted on home
meds.
.
# Chronic neuropathic pain: at baseline but pt reports
difficulty obtaining Fentanyl patches due to inadequate drug
coverage by his insurance plan
.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
- The patient will f/u with urology this week for repeat
cystogram to check for resolution of urinary leak. The patient
remains on ciprofloxacin (for 5 more days through the
appointment) at which time is should be determined if the abx
should be continued going forth.
- The patient was sent out with a medication supply list for
Ethanol Locks at 70% instead of the previously prescribed 10%
(per ___ RN).
- Blood cultures were pending at d/c

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman with significant history of
coronary artery disease s/p CABG, ischemic cardiomyopathy s/p
BiV-ICD placement and ventricular tachycardia who presented with
acute onset of likely GI bleed with resultant
exertionalleft-sided chest pain. She underwent an endoscopy
which didnt show any active signs of bleeding and was dc/ed to
___ d/t orthostatic hypotension.
.
# Gastrointestinal bleed: Ms. ___ experienced a hematocrit drop
from baseline of 34 to 24 in setting of guaiac positive dark
stool. Differential diagnosis for upper GI bleed included
bleeding ulcer, gastritis, or variceal bleed. She has history of
gastritis on previous EGD and diverticulosis on prior
colonoscopy. On admission, Ms. ___ was started on a protonix
drip, and GI was consulted who performed EGD on ___ which
demonstrated no acitve site of bleeding and no lesion that may
have been responsible for the GIB. Ms. ___ recieved 3 units of
blood on the first day of admission which resulted in resolution
of her chest pain.
.
# Chest pain: Ms. ___ experienced left-sided chest pain which is
similar to her prior anginal symptoms. There were no discernible
EKG changes but these are difficult to interpret in the setting
of BiV pacing. Her MB was flat and troponins were less than
baseline (normally elevated secondary to CKD). Patient received
full-dose aspirin and was initiated on a nitroglycerin gtt in
the ED with resolution of her pain. Pain did not recur after
weaning the nitroglycerin drip and receiving 3 units of PRBCs
until 2 days later on ___. Beta blockade and lisinopril were
initially held but were restarted at lower dose on ___.
Lisinopril however was held at the time of dc due to a Cr bump.
.
# Ischemic cardiomyopathy: Ms. ___ furosemide and
spironolactone were initially held given concern for GI bleed.
Before d/c her Cr was high so lasix and lisinopril were held.
.
# Atrial fibrillation: CHADS2 score of 4. Ms. ___ states that
her physicians told her to stop dabigatran several months ago
and according to GI note from ___ her dabigatran had already
been stopped. Her outpatient cardiologist, Dr. ___, was
contacted and an appt was set up. On discharge, she was
prescribed dabigatran 75 BID and set up with outpt f/up.
.
# Type 2 diabetes mellitus: Home lantus and a sliding scale were
continued in lieu of her januvia and sulfonyluea.
.
# Hypothyroidism: Continued home levothyroxine
.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: The pt developed some orthostatic
hypotension just before the time of discharge and her Cr spiked,
likely in the setting of being NPO for a long period and getting
lisinopril and lasix. These meds were held at the time of dc and
she will need a CHEM 7 before these meds can be restarted.

SUMMARY STATEMENT:
====================
The patient is a ___ man with a history of hypertension,
diabetes, right-sided Bell's palsy, and recently diagnosed
neurogenic bladder with chronic Foley who presents with fevers,
fatigue, nausea, vomiting, lethargy found to have pseudomonal
UTI. He was given IV fluids and started on IV ceftriaxone until
urine culture grew pansensitive Pseudomonas at which point he
was switched to oral ciprofloxacin. He had his Foley exchanged.
He is discharged home on a 7-day course of oral Cipro Floxin.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
====================
[] 7-day course of ciprofloxacin to end ___
[] Patient complained of a bubbling feeling in his stomach on
discharge. He also reported some mild diarrhea on discharge.
Recommend following this up at outpatient primary care
appointment to ensure resolution.
[] ___ was held this admission due to concern for infection
and sepsis. Recommend restarting as outpatient if necessary from
a hypertension standpoint.
[] Patient was offered MOLST this admission but did not complete
it. Recommend following up as an outpatient to see if he wants
to complete it.
ACTIVE ISSUES:
==============
#Pseudomonas urinary tract infection
Patient presented complaining of fevers, fatigue, nausea and
vomiting, and lethargy. He has a recent diagnosis of neurogenic
bladder and has an indwelling Foley at home. On admission his UA
indicated UTI and urine culture ultimately grew pansensitive
Pseudomonas. He was given IV fluids in the emergency department.
He was treated with IV ceftriaxone for 3 days with improvement
in symptoms, once cultures finalized he was switched to oral
ciprofloxacin for appropriate pseudomonal coverage. He had a
leukocytosis on admission which improved significantly with
antibiosis. He will continue this course for a total of 7 days,
the final day will be ___.

IMAGING
=========================
___ CXR
FINDINGS:
___ catheter has been placed via a right internal jugular
venous
approach. The catheter projects tip projects 2.5 cm lateral to
the right
mediastinal border, probably in the basilar trunk of the right
lower lobe
pulmonary artery. Dual lead pacemaker/ICD device appears
unchanged. Trace pleural effusions are likely. There is no
pneumothorax. Moderate to severe pulmonary edema has
substantially worsened since the prior day.
IMPRESSION: ___ catheter likely terminating in the
basilar right lower lobe pulmonary artery.
___ TTE:
The inferior vena cava diameter is normal. The left ventricle
has a normal cavity size. There are
moderate to extensive areas of severe regional left ventricular
systolic dysfunction with near akinesis of
the distal ___ of the ventricle (see schematic) and mild
global hypokinesis of the remaining segments.
The visually estimated left ventricular ejection fraction is
<=30%. The right ventricle has depressed
free wall motion. There is no pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Normal left ventricular cavity size with severe
systolic dysfunction. Right
ventricular free wall hypyokinesis. No pericardial effusion.
CXR ___
IMPRESSION: In comparison with the earlier study of this date,
there is little change in the appearance of the ___
catheter tip which again appears in the right pulmonary artery
at the mediastinal border.
The lungs are essentially clear and there is no vascular
congestion.
Brief Hospital Course:
BRIEF HOSPITAL COURSE
=====================
Mr. ___ is a ___ with CAD s/p PCI to proximal LAD ___, HTN,
HLD, DM2, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation on Xarelto, mild aortic
stenosis, and SSS s/p dual chamber pacemaker (___) with
recent admission for influenza found to have HFrEF, who now
presented with episodes of somnolence at home. He was found to
be in cardiogenic shock, underwent RHC with leave in ___ for
medication titration. He was diuresed with maximum 80mg IV Lasix
until euvolemic and then started on po Lasix 20 mg three times
per week for maintenance and started on Dofetilide to help
control his atrial fibrillation. Etiology of his decompensation
possibly in the setting of poorly controlled atrial
fibrillation, influenza virus infection, and inability to
tolerate ___ medical therapy instated during his
last hospital admission.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
Discharge Weight: 168 lbs
Discharge Cr: 1.3
Discharge diuretic: Lasix 20mg three times weekly
(___)
[ ] Because he presented with hypotension, we stopped his home
losartan 25mg PO daily and imdur 30mg PO daily. We started
lisinopril 5mg daily for afterload reduction in the setting of
HFreF, which he tolerated well without hypotension.
[ ] We reduced his home metoprolol succinate from 37.5mg BID to
25mg PO BID
[ ] His statin was initially held due to transaminitis from
congestive hepatopathy. Although his LFTs have normalized, we
are holding his statin at discharge, since due to his age, he
may not benefit from taking a statin based on Beer's criteria.
[ ] He was started on dofetilide during this admission for
rhythm control in atrial fibrillation. He had daily ECGs to
monitor his QTc.
[ ] For diuresis, patient will be discharged on 20mg Lasix three
times weekly (___).
ACUTE ISSUES
============
# Acute HFrEF
He has a prior history of HFpEF and a recent admission for
influenza, at which point he was found to have new HFrEF which
was thought to be due to flu versus uncontrolled atrial
fibrillation. On arrival to ___ this admission, he was found
to be cool and somnolent which was concerning for cardiogenic
shock. A TTE was repeated on this admission, which showed an EF
30%, normal left ventricular cavity size with severe systolic
dysfunction, right ventricular free wall hypyokinesis, similar
study to prior on last recent admission this month. RHC was done
___ with leave in ___, with a CO 3.59 and cardiac index 1.79.
He was diuresed with a maximum 80mg IV Lasix, and re-started him
on lasix 20mg PO three times per week. We stopped his losartan
and imdur in the setting of his hypotension. We initially
managed afterload with captopril, but switched to 5mg lisinopril
daily. Metoprolol succinate was initially held due to RHC
indicating poor cardiac output, but was eventually restarted at
a lower dose of 25mg bid compared to his home dose of 37.5mg
bid. At discharge he was euvolemic and tolerating ___
medical therapy with a reduced dose of beta-blocker and
afterload reduction with lisinopril 5mg daily.
Pre-load: lasix 20mg three times weekly
(___)
Afterload: Lisinopril 5mg daily
NHBK: metoprolol succinate 25mg bid
# Atrial fibrillation
During the hospitalization, his heart rate would spike up to
130-150s resulting in lower blood pressure. He was already on
37.5mg metoprolol succinate bid, and 0.125mg digoxin daily at
home. He was loaded on dofetilide during this admission and his
heart rates have been well-controlled ___ with an atrial paced
rhythm. He had daily ECG to monitor his QTc. He will be
discharged on 125mcg bid of Dofetilide. He was continued on
rivaroxaban for anticoagulation and his metoprolol was decreased
to 25mg bid due to low cardiac output. He was continued on
0.125mg daily digoxin. His digoxin level was 0.5 on ___.
Rate: metoprolol succinate 25mg bid, digoxin 0.125mg daily
Rhythm: dofetilide 125mcg bid
Anticoagulation: Rivaroxaban 15mg PO daily
#Transaminitis:
He presented with transaminitis, with initial ALT and AST 160
and 72. Likely congestive hepatopathy, as his LFTs normalized
after diuresis.
CHRONIC ISSUES
==============
# CAD s/p PCI
Continued home Plavix, deferred restarting statin despite normal
LFTs given his age.
# Type 2 Diabetes
He has a longstanding history of diabetes most recent A1c 8.4 in
___. His diabetes is complicated by peripheral neuropathy
and autonomic instability which may be contributing to his
symptoms as above. He is followed closely by Dr. ___
endocrinology who has continued to help titrate his insulin
regimen as an outpatient. He was continued on his home insulin
regimen during this admission.

CT ABD & PELVIS W/O CONTRAST Study Date of ___ 12:13 ___
FINDINGS: LUNG BASES: There is a small nodule in the right
middle lobe on
series 2 image 1 measuring approximately 5 mm stable from ___
CT. An area of subsegmental atelectasis is seen in the inferior
lingula.
ABDOMEN: Non-contrast evaluation does limit evaluation of solid
organs.
Multiple hepatic and splenic calcified granulomas are noted.
Multiple
calcified stones are seen layering within the gallbladder lumen.
There is no evidence of choledocholithiasis. Adrenal glands are
normal bilaterally. The pancreas and kidneys appear normal. No
hydronephrosis. Tiny calcific
densities in the renal hilum bilaterally likely reflect vascular
calcification. Abdominal aorta is normal in course and caliber
with faint
minimal atherosclerotic calcification. No retroperitoneal
lymphadenopathy.
The stomach is decompressed. Duodenum appears normal.
PELVIS: Loops of small bowel demonstrate no signs of ileus or
obstruction. No appendix is visualized. The colon is notable
for diverticulosis but no signs of diverticulitis. No free
pelvic fluid. Uterus appears surgically absent. No adnexal
masses. Urinary bladder is minimally distended. No free pelvic
fluid.
BONES: Unremarkable.
IMPRESSION:
1. Gallstones without definite signs of cholecystitis.
2. No hydronephrosis or kidney stone.
3. 5-mm nodule in the right middle lobe stable from ___
requiring no further workup.
4. Diverticulosis without diverticulitis.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ yo female with h/o DM, rheumatoid arthritis, HTN, ___ body
dementia and GI bleed in ___, recently discharged within past
week for GI bleed, who presents with vomiting x1 this AM, mild
abdominal pain and blood in urine x1 today.
#Hemolytic anemia based on falling crit, Haptoglobin <5 and LDH
>1000. No schistocytes on smear. Likely secondary to delayed
reaction to transfusion. Also possible but less likely is PNH,
autoimmune hemolytic anemia. This is in the context of a
history of gastrointestinal bleeding: (Patient admitted earlier
this month for likely diverticular bleed. Endoscopy and
colonoscopy without clear source of bleed, presumed diverticular
bleed which resolved. Capsule endoscopy negative for bleeding.
Patient got O+ blood ___ and ___. With respect to the GI
bleed, we continued home omeprazole 20mg qd. With respect to
the hemolytic anemia: Coombs test negative, repeated negative by
blood bank with elute. B12 and Folate within normal limits,
methylmalonic and epo pending.
-Patient to follow up with the hematology team as an outpatient.
#Initial Abdominal Pain: Likely secondary to viral etiology.
Resolved with keeping patient NPO and time. Patient initially
presented with an isolated rise in AST with large blood in urine
and no RBCs and elevated CK now with ARF. We initially were
concerned for statin induced myositis (although patient with
normal CK). Also possible is ulcer/ gastritis (recent EGD was
unremarkable). CT scan ruled out SBO, acute cholecystitis,
other catastrophic intraabdominal process. Troponins negative
x2, 0.02 on third set. Patient with 2 bowel movements ___ and
resolution of abdominal pain. Her main symptom was spitting up
clear sputum, which also resolved with time. Patient was
evaluated with speech and swallow who deemed no difficulty
swallowing. We continued to hold simvastatin 20mg daily (not
for concern not of active myositis, but for concern of
potentially tipping over renal function given hemolysis above if
any myoglobinuria induced). At discharge, patient was able to
eat PO without difficulty.
#Acute Renal failure: Likely secondary to hemoglobinuria/
hemoglobin intrinsically damaging kidneys. Creatinine baseline
approximately 1.2-1.4 for the past ___ years. FeNa 2.54
inconsistent with prerenal disorder. We continued to hold
losartan and HCTZ and gave small NS boluses with improving trend
of creatinine.
#Hypertension: Patient initially presented with elevated SBP to
199. To avoid renal damage, we chose labetalol 100mg BID which
was frequently held due to bradycardia. At discharge, we held
hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg daily and losartan 50 mg daily which
can be restarted pending resolution of renal function
#Diabetes Mellitus type 2, A1C 6.8 from ___. Controlled,
without complications:
had previously taken metformin, however not on any meds
currently. Was on ISS while in house.
#Dementia, ___ body: still living in her own apartment,
independent with some ADLs. Continued donepezil and sertraline
25 mg daily
#Glaucoma: we continued timolol maleate 0.5 % Drops Sig: One (1)
Drop Ophthalmic BID
(2 times a day).
#Allergic rhinitis: Not active we held fluticasone 50
mcg/Actuation Spray, Suspension Sig: Two (2) Spray Nasal DAILY
(Daily)
#Transitional:
-We held simvastatin at discharge not for concern for active
rhabdo/myositis but rather for concern of the possibility of it
happening and the little reserve the patient has given her
active hemoglobin sediment in her urine. This can be restarted
at follow up along with HCTZ and losartan pending renal
function.
-Follow up with hematology team for consideration of PNH causing
hemolytic anemia. MMA and epo pending at time of discharge.

PENDING
Brief Hospital Course:
Mrs. ___ was admitted to ___
on ___ after falling while using her ___. Patient
states she was using her ___ to go to the bathroom when she
suddenly fell. She doesn't remember the incident and woke up
already on the ground. At that time, she had left-sided pain.
She denied lightheadedness or dizziness. She then used life-line
to call for help and was brought by ambulance. In the ED, she
was triggered for bradycardia w/ HR of 44.
Mrs. ___ injuries include a new minimally displaced
fracture of left 12 rib and non-displaced fracture left 11 rib
and a posterior left flank subcutaneous hematoma and contusion.
She suffered no other intracranial or intrabdominal trauma. She
was transferred to the inpatient floor under the ACS service for
further management and observation.
As there was some concern for potential syncope, the patient was
ordered for an ECG, carotid ultrasound and echocardiogram. The
ECG showed bradycardia in the ___ with non-specific t-wave
changes. There was no acute change from prior exam. At the
time of discharge, the patient's carotid exam was pending. The
echocardigram was not completed prior to discharge. An
echocardiogram was completed immediately prior to her discharge.
The patient's acute pain was treated with intermittent boluses
of fentanyl, but was soon started on oral non-narcotic
analgesics (tramadol, acetaminophen). As she was having a fair
amount of pain on exam, a prescription for PRN oxycodone was
provided at time of discharge. She was resumed on her home
medication regimen. Physical therapy was consulted as well.
Their recommendations were that the patient be discharged to an
acute care rehabiliation center due to poor conditioning and her
significant history of falls.
At the time of discharge, Mrs. ___ was hemodynamically stable
and afebrile. Discharge instructions were provided by myself
and the bedside RN. A follow up appointment has been made with
the ACS service. We have recommended that the patient follow up
with her PCP regarding her bradycardia. The patient is awaiting
transport to the skilled nursing facility.
Medications on Admission:
Donepezil 10', cozaar 50', alendronate 35qweek, HCTZ 25',

Discharge Disposition:
Extended Care
Facility:
___
Discharge Diagnosis:
Rib fractures, left flank hematoma, vertebral body fracture.
Discharge Condition:
Mental Status: Confused - sometimes.
Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid ___
or cane).
Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted to ___ on
___ after you fell using your ___. You sustained rib
fractures which can cause severe pain and subsequently cause you
to take shallow breaths because of the pain.
You also sustained a blood clot formation in your left side as
well as a fracture of one of you vertebrae (back bones). For
both of those conditions, there was no surgical or medical
intervention required.
We have made an appointment for you to follow up with the
ACS/Trauma doctors regarding your ___ fractures. We recommend
that you also follow up with your PCP because of your low heart
rate (bradycardia). Because you may have lost consciousness due
to "passing out", we ordered an ECG, cartoid duplex ultrasound
and an echocardiogram. Your ECG was stable from prior and the
test results of your carotid ultrasound were pending at the time
of discharge. Please follow up with your PCP to have an
echocardiogram completed.
Further Directions:
You should take your pain medicine as as directed to stay ahead
of the pain otherwise you won't be able to take deep breaths.
If the pain medication is too sedating, take half the dose and
notify your physician.
Pneumonia is a complication of rib fractures. In order to
decrease your risk you must use your incentive spirometer 4
times every hour while awake. This will help expand the small
airways in your lungs and assist in coughing up secretions that
pool in the lungs.
You will be more comfortable if you use a cough pillow to hold
against your chest and guard your rib cage while coughing and
deep breathing.
Symptomatic relief with ice packs or heating pads for short
periods may ease the pain.
Do NOT smoke.
Return to the ED right away for any acute shortness of breath,
increased pain or crackling sensation around your rips
(crepitus).

___
Sinus bradycardia. Prolonged Q-T interval. Anterior ST-T wave
changes raise concern for ischemia. Clinical correlation is
suggested.
STUDIES:
___
CXR IMPRESSION:
Opacities at the left lung base, probably compatible with
atelectasis.
Infectious process is not excluded, however.
CTA IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism.
2. Mild mosaic attenuation pattern, most often due to air
trapping associated
with small airways disease, versus slight vascular congestion.
3. Patchy peripheral opacities in the right upper lobe,
possibly atelectasis;
pneumonia hard to exclude but seems less likely. Although less
common,
organizing and eosinophilic forms of pneumonitis can also
present as
peripheral opacities; focal edema could also be considered.
4. Small perifissural nodule measuring 3-4 mm and mildly
enlarged lymph node,
probably reactive. However, follow-up surveillance of the
findings is
suggested in six months with chest CT.
5. Mild dilatation of the right pulmonary artery.
___
ECHO IMPRESSION:
Mild-moderate regional systolic dysfunction (LAD territory) in
association with LBBB-related dyssynchrony. Mild-moderate mitral
regurgitation. Mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension.
___
Cath Report:
Coronary angiography: Co-dominant (right >left).
LMCA (JL4 selective in the CX): The LMCA had minimal luminal
irregularities.
LAD: The LAD had mild plaquing and gave off a large ___
septal.
The remainder of the LAD proper had few septal branches. There
was mild plaquing to 30% in the mid LAD after S1. There was a
very long but high D1. S2 had mild origin disease. Flow into the
LAD was slow, partly due to selective engagement in the LCX, but
also likely from some intramyocardial dysfunction.
LCX: There was a mild ostial LCX lesion. (~20%). The LCX had
minimal luminal irregularities and supplied a modest caliber
OM1,
a small OM2, large tortuous LPL1-LP3 branches, a small LPL4,
along with a short small LPDA. The flow in the CX was slow,
consistent with microvascular dysfunction.
RCA: The RCA had diffuse disease throughout to 40%
proximal-mid
vessel. The modest caliber RPDA had mild origin and moderate
(~50-60%) disease mid RPDA. Flow in the RCA was slow, consistent
with microvascular dysfunction.
Assessment & Recommendations
1. Moderate single vessel angiographically-apparent obstructive
CAD, but diffuse atherosclerosis and evidence of disuse
microvascular dysfunction .
2. Systemic systolic arterial hypertension.
3. Mild left ventricular diastolic heart failure.
4. No tight LAD lesions seen. ? LVSD related to dys-synchrony.
5. Reiforce primary preventative measures against CAD and
secondary preventatitve mreasures against LVSD and HTN.
6. Additional plans per the ___ and EP Services
7. Routine post-TR Band care.
___
EP STUDY + ___ Placement
(SEE EP NOTE DATED ___ for full details)
___
CXR IMPRESSION:
As compared to the previous radiograph, the patient has received
a left
pectoral pacemaker. The course of the pacemaker leads is
unremarkable, 1 lead
projects over the right atrium and 1 over the right ventricle.
There is no
pneumothorax. No pleural effusions. No pulmonary edema. The
known left
basal atelectasis is completely unchanged.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old F with PMH of osteoarthritis, renal cell carcinoma,
GERD, no previously known cardiac disease presented with
complaint of ___ days of slowly progressive dyspnea on exertion
with VSS. She had negative troponin x1 and relatively low BNP.
CXR did not show PNA or pleural effusion. She had negative CTA
chest which ruled out PE. She was incidentally found to have new
Mobitz II on one EKG although not present on repeat ECG. ECHO
once admitted showed EF 40-45% with regional hypokinesis of the
LV. Given the territorial nature of her dysfunction, suspected
ischemic source due to possible silent MI. Underwent
catheterization which showed mild-moderate occlusions but no
intervenable lesions, as well as, LV diastolic dysfunction.
Patient recovered well from procedure. While waiting for EP
study, interval EKG showed reversal of LBBB with T wave memory.
Patient underwent EP study which showed poor conduction below
below AV node (final and patient recieved ___ DUAL CHAMBER
PACEMAKER. Patient recovered well, follow-up X-ray confirmed
correct placement of leads, and patient was discharged to
follow-up with PCP and Dr. ___.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
___ was a pleasure treating you at ___
___. You were admitted for concern of your difficulty
breathing. While you were admitted, your underwent an
ECHOcardiogram of your heart which showed that your heart wasn't
pumping as well as it should, which likely caused your
difficulty breathing. You underwent cardiac catheterization
which showed no major blockages of the vessels of your heart.
You also underwent multiple electrocardiograms (EKGs) which
raised concern about possibly missing a beat or two which could
have progressed to a bigger problem. You underwent an
electrophysiologic study or a study to examine how your heart
was sending signals to generate beats. This study showed some
problems with conduction of signals in a certain area of the
heart. A pacemaker was placed to help prevent problems from
developing from this issue. You were discharged to follow-up
with your PCP and your new Cardiologist Dr. ___
cardiologist who saw you daily in the hospital). Its important
that you keep your visits as scheduled.
Wishing you the best of health,
Your ___ team

Brief Hospital Course:
Patient is a ___ y/o male with recent leg immobilization after
motorcycle accident of ___, s/p Tib/fib fracture, now with
cement spacer, admitted after near syncope event at rehab. He
had been on Coumadin and lovenox for a DVT, but developed chest
pain and shortness of breath while ___ the ED and the CT scan
showed acute right sided pulmonary embolism, with question of
infarction, despite being on anticoagulation. He was
incidentally found to have an infection under his flap on the
right leg based on the physical exam performed by plastic
surgery.
# Pulmonary Embolism: Hematology was consulted - the patient
was taking lovenox 80 mg sc bid at rehab, and his weight based
dose is 100 mg sc/bid based on his weight. He has also had some
recent subtherapeutic INRs. It was felt that the development of
acute pulmonary embolism ___ the setting of a previously seen DVT
no longer visualized, was due to embolization and suboptimal
anticoagulation rather than warfarin failure. He was countinued
on warfarin and bridged to a therapeutic INR with a heparin drip
___ the ___ period. He may be bridged ___ the future
with lovenox, but he should be on the 100 mg sc bid dose. He
should be continued on Coumadin 8 mg dose and INR followed
closely. Recommend minimum of 3 months of anticoagulation for
provoked PE. He was seen by the ___ hematologists who made
these recommendations.
# Leg infection - under flap and over hardware: He was taken to
the ___ by plastic surgery and d "There was found to be fibrinous
debris and purulence directly over bone and plate" according to
the ___ report. They irrigated and derided the area as much as
possible. Cultures grew Coag+ staph, Enterobacter, and
Enterococcus.
Infectious diseases also saw the patient and recommended
treatment with IV vancomycin (1 gram tid) and IV ertapenem (1
gram daily) until ___. He has followup scheduled with
infectious diseases. He had a PICC line placed for this.
He fill followup with plastic surgery for removal of sutures and
the drain.
PLEASE OBTAIN THE FOLLOWING LAB TESTS WEEKLY:
CBC with differential, BUN, Cr, Vancomycin trough, ALT, AST,
TOTAL BILIRUBIN, ALK PHOS, ESR/CRP AND FAX RESULTS TO ___
INFECTIOUS DISEASES AT ___
He will followup with plastic surgery to have sutures removed
and with orthopedics to discuss timing of removal of hardware
after suppressive therapy with IV antibiotics. PLEASE SCHEDULE
THE APPOINTMENT WITH DRS ___ for f/u.
He was prescribed vicodin for leg pain, but took it sparingly.
# Pre-syncope at rehab on ___ and syncope the week prior: The
first episode occurred after a long warm shower, his first after
getting to rehab. I suspect that he had significant
vasodilation as a result of his shower and that this resulted ___
his syncope. The second episode by history is highly suggestive
of vasovagal symptomatology. Nonetheless, he was monitored on
telemetry during his hospitalization and there were no
concerning events. EKG notable only for sinus tachycardia.
# Anemia: Stable, improved from prior admit when he had
significant acute blood loss anemia. Continued iron
supplementation
# pain ___ leg: Well controlled on vicodin.

Imaging:
___ CT abd/pelv -
1. Pneumoperitoneum with moderate ascites throughout the abdomen
compatible with a perforated viscus. While the exact site of
perforation is difficult to localize, a focal segment of
irregular wall thickening and enhancement within the sigmoid
colon is concerning for an underlying colonic mass and may be
the
source of perforation.
2. Multiple abdominal and pelvic abscesses, the largest
measuring
up to 5.5 x 4.8 cm within the deep pelvis, anterior to the
rectum.
3. Wall thickening and mural edema involving multiple loops of
ileum in the right lower quadrant as well as the ascending
colon,
likely reactive.
4. Numerous enlarged retroperitoneal and mesenteric lymph
nodes.
While these may be reactive, given the concern for an underlying
sigmoid colonic mass, these could reflect neoplastic
involvement.
5. Small bilateral pleural effusions, larger on the right.
___ CTAP
1. Patient is post exploratory laparotomy and ___ pouch.
Multiple loops of mildly dilated small bowel, up to 3.7 cm, are
identified in the left mid abdomen. A gradual tapering
transition point is thought to occur in the right mid abdomen
(see series 2, image 58). Distal to this site, multiple loops
of nondistended, more collapsed small and large bowel are
identified. Findings are thought to represent postoperative
although early obstruction might have this appearance as well.
2. Interval development of multiple fluid collections of simple
internal
attenuation, although some of which are loculated and
demonstrate thin
enhancing rims. For example, there is a 13.5 x 11.9 cm
loculated-appearing perisplenic collection with adjacent fat
stranding. A 9.8 x 7.2 cm irregular fluid collection in the
midline lower pelvis, and 2 smaller mid mesenteric collections,
are also present.
3. Bilateral nonhemorrhagic pleural effusions with overlying
compressive
atelectasis, likely postsurgical in nature.
4. No significant change in the previously described mesenteric
and
retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy.
___
1. Status post placement of pigtail drainage catheter within a
peripherally rim enhancing perisplenic fluid collection, which
has decreased in size. The pigtail formation of the catheter
appears somewhat buckled. Recommend correlation with catheter
output and its ability to be flushed.
2. Interval increase in simple free mesenteric fluid.
3. Interval decrease in size of the collection of fluid in the
pelvis with
thin, incomplete peripheral enhancement.
4. No evidence of extraluminal contrast or intra-abdominal free
air to suggest the presence of a perforated viscus.
5. Moderate bilateral pleural effusions with adjacent
atelectasis appears
similar to prior.
CXR:
Moderate left effusion with moderate bibasal opacities have not
been placed changed, given the adjacent sub phrenic
intra-abdominal collection, there is concern for infected left
pleural effusion.
___ CTAP:
1. Improvement in the organized collection lying above the
bladder as detailed above. It measures 1 cm in craniocaudal
dimension, previously 4.3 cm. It is in close contact with the
rectal stump.
2. Minimal improvement in the left upper quadrant collection.
3. Moderate amount of free intra abdominal fluid with peritoneal
enhancement compatible with peritonitis. It is difficult to
exclude omental disease in a patient with moderate amount of
ascites, and correlation with dedicated CT scan is recommended
once the acute episode resolves to exclude any omental
pathology.
4. No new collections.
___ Chest CT
No definitive evidence off infectious process within the chest.
Bibasal
atelectasis and large bilateral pleural effusions.
Multiple lymph nodes, none of them specifically pathologically
enlarged.
Multiple esophageal diverticula.

GROSS DESCRIPTION:
The specimen is received fresh in a container, labeled with the
patient's name, ___, the medical record number and additionally labeled
"sigmoid colon". The specimen
consists of a segment of colon as well as an unattached portion
of the mesentery. The unattached
portion of the mesentery is grossly unremarkable and it measures
6.7 x 3.5 x 1.6 cm. The segment of
colon measures overall 21.3 x 8.5 x 7.7 cm. The colon itself
measures 18.0 cm in length and 2.7 cm
in diameter. A portion of mesentery is attached to the colon
that measures 21.3 x 8.5 x 7.7 cm. The
specimen is oriented with a stitch at the proximal end. The
proximal margin has a staple line that
measures 2.0 cm in length. The serosa of the bowel is smooth
proximally and there is purulence
present at the distal end. A palpable mass is present within the
bowel. The serosa and mesentery
overlying the mass is inked black. The specimen is opened along
the anti-mesenteric surface to
reveal fecal material within the lumen. The distal margin is
inked orange. The radial margin is inked
green. A circumferential, polypoid, fungating mass is present
that measures 5.5 cm in length, 5.3 cm
in width, and 1.2 cm in height. The tumor appears to be present
at the distal margin. A large
perforation is present in the serosa deep to the mass. Serial
slices show that the tumor does invade
into the muscularis propria and the mesentery. The surrounding
non-neoplastic mucosa is involved
with diverticular disease. Within the mesentery, twelve lymph
nodes are identified.

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ was admitted through the emergency department on
___ with a perforated colon and multiple intrabdominal
abscesses and was taken emergently to the operating room for an
exploratory laparotomy, ___ procedure and colostomy.
Intraoperatively a mass was discovered in the sigmoid colon
which was later characterizeds a 5.5 cm pT3N1Mx low grade
mucinous adenocarcinoma. Negative margins were achieved. For
more details of the procedure please refer to the operative
note. Following the procedure Mr. ___ was taken to the PACU
per routine in stable condition, and from there was transferred
to the general surgical floor.
On POD 1 he experienced some tachycardia and low level
temperatures. A CXR was taken which was unremarkable. He was
initially treated with IVF but when his symptoms persisted he
underwent a CT Abdomen/Pelvis which demonstrated multiple
abdominal fluid collections concerning for early abscesses. ___
was consulted and placed a pelvic and perisplenic drain on
___. Cultures from these collections were negative. He
continued to have intermittent fevers and was started
empirically on zosyn on ___/ Blood and fluid cultures
continued to be negative. He. On ___ his laparotomy wound was
found to be poorly healing at a 2 x 2 cm segment, so a wound vac
was placed. On ___ his abx regimen was changed to
cipro/flagyl. He continued to be febrile and on ___
underwent a CT/Abdomen/Pelvis. This demonstrated several fluid
collections had decreased in size but the perisplenic
collection, as well as a RLQ and a mesenteric collection were
persistent. ___ was reconsulted and aspirated fluid from all
three collections. Only ___ cc of fluid per collection was
obtained, and all were found to be serosanguinous, with gram
stains negative. His WBC continued to trend down and he had no
more febrile episodes. At this point being clinically well with
pain well-controlled and tolerating a PO diet with positive BMs,
he was discharged to rehabilitation with plans for 5 more days
of antibiotics, and follow up in clinic in 2 weeks.

Increased size of right pleural effusion, now moderate to large,
with right basilar compressive atelectasis. Infection in the
right lung base is difficult to exclude. Mild left basilar
atelectasis.
___ RUQ U/S:
1. Redemonstration of a 14.6 cm perihepatic anechoic collection,
slightly
increased in size compared to prior abdominal ultrasound
performed ___, and better assessed on the same-day
abdominal CT. Findings may reflect loculated ascites in the
setting of background moderate volume ascites
2. Patent main portal vein and left portal vein. The right
portal vein is not visualized, but appears pain on the same-day
abdominal CT.
3. Cirrhotic liver without evidence for a focal lesion.
4. Unchanged splenomegaly, which along with the ascites is
consistent with
portal hypertension.
5. Right pleural effusion.
___ PARACENTESIS:
1. Technically successful ultrasound guided diagnostic and
therapeutic
paracentesis.
2. 620 cc of fluid were removed and sent for requested analysis.
___ CXR PORTABLE AP:
Right-sided pleural effusion has resolved. No evidence of
pneumothorax.
Minimal right basilar atelectasis. Otherwise, no significant
change.
IMPRESSION:
Status post right thoracentesis.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ male with PMH cirrhosis decompensated by ascites,
grade I esophageal varices, portal hypertensive gastropath, DVT
PE in setting of MTHFR gene mutation, HTN, and mood disorder who
was admitted for worsening dyspnea and progressive right pleural
effusion. Patient found to have re-accumulation of loculated
ascites. He was previously admitted for SBO and HAP and found to
have loculated intra-abdominal fluid collection. Patient
underwent thoracentesis with resolution of dyspnea and
paracentesis.
ACTIVE ISSUES:
====================
# Right hydrothorax
Presented with progressive dyspnea and radiographic evidence of
right pleural effusion increase. IP did thoracentesis on ___
with drainage of 2L pleural fluid. Pleural fluid studies were
exudative by three-test rule, however the etiology was still
thought to be hepatic hydrothorax as this can be exudative in a
minority of cases. Patient had no infectious signs or symptoms
and no further dyspnea. Lasix was increased from 40 mg to 60 mg
PO daily and spironolactone was increased from 100 mg to 200 mg
PO daily. Rivaroxaban was held prior to thoracentesis and
restarted afterward with no event.
# Cirrhosis
# Loculated ascites:
Etiology of cirrhosis potentially EtOH given prior extensive
EtOH history. Decompensated by ascites, grade I esophageal
varices, and portal hypertensive gastropathy. RUQ U/S showed
patent portal vasculature but did show re-accumulation of
___ fluid collection which was previously drained ___.
Fluid collection was drained again and was negative for SBP.
Home Lasix/spironolactone were uptitrated per above. Patient
would like to ___ with ___ upon discharge
and was care connected.
# Vertigo:
Chronic issue for many years, although has worsened over the
past few days per patient. Work-up has been done at the ___. He reportedly had MRI two months ago which was unremarkable.
Patient was prescribed nortriptyline as an outpatient and this
was restarted on day of discharge.
# Pancytopenia
History of pancytopenia, believed to be secondary to a
combination of MTHFR megaloblastic anemia and cirrhosis.
CHRONIC/STABLE ISSUES:
======================
# Atrial fibrillation: No indication for anti-coagulation.
Continue metoprolol.
# History of DVT/PE: Continue rivaroxaban 20mg
# GERD: Continue omeprazole 20mg daily
# Neuropathy: Continue gabapentin 600mg TID
# Depression/Anxiety
# PTSD: Continue mirtazapine 15mg QHS, quetiapine 300mg QHS,
prazosin 1mg QHS, trazodone 100mg QHS:PRN for insomnia.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
======================
MEDICATION CHANGES
[] Lasix increased from 40 mg PO daily to 60 mg PO daily
[] Spironolactone increased from 100 mg PO daily to 200 mg PO
daily
NEW MEDICATIONS
[] Nortriptyline 10 mg PO daily for vertigo. Patient was
reportedly on this medication prior to admission.
[] Consider up-titration of nortriptyline for vertigo if patient
continues to have symptoms with low dose.
[] If patient develops dyspnea, recommend repeat CXR to evaluate
for recurrence of hepatic hydrothorax. If pleural effusion
recurs, would send cytology as his pleural effusion was
exudative. This was still thought to be hepatic hydrothorax but
would need to consider malignancy if it recurs.
[] If patient has new or worsening abdominal pain, would
recommend repeat abdominal U/S to evaluate for recurrence of
loculated ascites.
[] Recommend HBV vaccine. Serologies show he is non-immune.
[] Recheck Chem-7 at PCP ___.

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ was evaluated in the Emergency Room by the Thoracic
Surgery service and admitted to the hospital with recurrent pain
and erythema over the right sternoclavicular joint. He had
recently stopped a 6 week course of IV Vancomycin just shy of a
few days of completion due to a severe body rash (DRESS) and his
symptoms recurred about a week later. He was admitted to the
hospital for further management.
He was seen by the Infectious Disease service and started on
Daptomycin. On ___ he was taken to the Operating Room and
underwent debridement of his right sternoclavicular joint and
multiple cultures were taken. He tolerated the procedure well
and returned to the PACU in stable condition. The pain service
was also actively involved as he had been using heroin prior to
coming in to the hospital. He maintained stable hemodynamics and
his pain was well controlled with a Dilaudid PCA and Ketamine.
Following transfer to the Surgical floor he underwent dressing
changes daily and his pain regimen was changed to Methadone,
Gabapentin and a Dilaudid PCA. His Methadone was gradually
increased based on his use of the PCA and he was able to use his
incentive spirometer effectively as well as ambulate frequently.
His PCA was stopped on ___ and he was given Dilaudid ___ mg
every 4 hours as needed along with Methadone 25 mg TID and
Naprosyn.
VAC dressing were started on ___ with use of a white sponge
at the base as the jugular vein was visible. He tolerated
dressing changes every 3 days and the base of the wound was
cleaning up nicely with beefy red tissue at the base. The VAC
was removed prior to transfer and a saline wet to dry dressing
was placed.
The ID service recommended 6 weeks of treatment with Nafcillin
for MSSA osteomyelitis. He had a PICC line placed on ___
for long term therapy which will continue through ___. Due
to his VAC dressing and IV antibiotics he will need rehab for
completion of this therapy. His wound will be followed buy the
Thoracic Surgery service on a regular basis and if needed the
Plastic Surgery service will be consulted after completion of
treatment. He will also be followed by the Infectious Disease
service for antibiotic management and weekly lab follow up.
Due to his heroin addiction he will need to have social service
help him arrange follow up in a ___ as well as NA
or other group therapy. After a long hospital stay he was
discharged to rehab on ___ for continued management.

IMAGING:
CTA ___:
FINDINGS:
CTA THORAX: The aorta and great vessels are well opacified with
no evidence of aneurysmal formation, intramural hematoma or
dissection. The intrathoracic aorta is of normal caliber
throughout. The pulmonary arteries are well opacified to the
subsegmental level with no evidence of filling defects within
the main, right, left, lobar, segmental or subsegmental
pulmonary arteries. There is no evidence of right heart strain.
CT THORAX: The airways are patent to the subsegmental level.
There is no axillary, hilar or mediastinal lymph node
enlargement. No pleural or pericardial effusion is present.
Lung windows demonstrate no evidence of focal opacity within the
lungs. The thyroid gland enhances homogeneously. The esophagus
is unremarkable. Although this study is not designed for
evaluation of subdiaphragmatic structures, there is a partially
imaged intermediate density complex cyst within the upper pole
of the left kidney, previously identified on renal ultrasound
from ___. Otherwise, the visualized solid organs
and stomach are unremarkable. OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: No lytic or
blastic lesions suspicious for malignancy is present.
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or aortic dissection.
2. Partially visualized intermediate density complex cyst within
the upper pole of the left kidney for which follow up ultrasound
is recommended to ensure stability from the prior ultrasound of
___.
STRESS TEST ___:
INTERPRETATION: This ___ yo man with a PMH of HTN and asthma was
referred to the lab for evaluation of chest discomfort. The
patient
exercised for 6.5 minutes on ___ protocol and was stopped
for
progressive anginal symptoms and ST segment elevation. The
estimated
peak MET capacity was 7.5 which represents a fair exercise
tolerance for
his age. At exercise, the patient reported ___ central chest
pain which
rapidly progressed to a ___ at peak exercise. This discomfort
resolved
with the administration of 4L O2 of via nasal cannula by 2
minutes in
recovery. At peak exercise there was 1-3 mm ST segment elevation
in
leads V1-4. There were no significant reciprocal ST segment
changes
seen. The STE resolved by 2 minutes in recovery. The rhythm was
sinus
with rare isolated APBs and occasional isolated VPBs.
Appropriate HR
response to exercise. Hypertension at rest with an exaggerated
BP
response to exercise.
IMPRESSION: Marked ischemic changes with rapidly progressive
anginal
symptoms. Fair exercise tolerance. Echo report sent separately.
STRESS ECHO ___:
The aortic valve appears bicuspid.
The patient exercised for 6 minutes 30 seconds according to a
___ treadmill protocol ___ METS) reaching a peak heart rate
of 150 bpm and a peak blood pressure of 200/108 mmHg. The test
was stopped because of anginal pain. The test was stopped
because of ischemic ST changes (see exercise report for
details). This level of exercise represents a fair exercise
tolerance for age. In response to stress, the ECG showed
ischemic ST changes (see exercise report for details). There is
resting systolic and diastolic hypertension. There were normal
blood pressure and heart rate responses to stress.
Resting images were acquired at a heart rate of 71 bpm and a
blood pressure of 156/104 mmHg. These demonstrated regional left
ventricular systolic dysfunction with apical hypokinesis. The
remaining segments contracted wel (LVEF = 50 %). Right
ventricular free wall motion is normal. There is no pericardial
effusion. Doppler demonstrated no aortic stenosis, aortic
regurgitation or significant mitral regurgitation or resting
LVOT gradient.
Echo images were acquired within 74 seconds after peak stress at
heart rates of 150 - 93 bpm. These demonstrated new regional
dysfunction with extensive apical, anterior, and septal
hypokinesis. The remaining segments augment appropriately.
IMPRESSION: fair functional exercise capacity. ischemic ECG
changes with 2D echocardiographic evidence of inducible ishemia
at achieved workload.
___ CARDIAC CATH (perlim):
L dominant
LAD - diffuse ___ 80% stenosis, hazy
LCX - 60% after large OM
___ 2 to LAD
TTE ___:
The left atrium is normal in size. The estimated right atrial
pressure is ___ mmHg. Overall left ventricular systolic function
is borderline (LVEF 50%). No definite regional wall motion
abnormalities are seen. Tissue Doppler imaging suggests a normal
left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP<12mmHg). Right
ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The
aortic valve is bicuspid. The aortic valve leaflets are
moderately thickened. There is no aortic valve stenosis. Trace
aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are
mildly thickened. Physiologic mitral regurgitation is seen
(within normal limits). The pulmonary artery systolic pressure
could not be determined. There is no pericardial effusion. No
suprasternal notch images were obtained to assess for
coarctation.
IMPRESSION: Bicuspid aortic valve without evidence for
significant stenosis or regurgitation. No other clinically
significant valvular disease is detected. Borderline normal LV
function without definite evidence of regional abnormality.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___,
the apical contractile function appears marginally improved.
PRIOR IMAGING:
RENAL US ___
FINDINGS: The right kidney measures 12 cm. The left kidney
measures 11.2 cm. Neither kidney demonstrates hydronephrosis or
large masses. Bilateral nonobstructing echogenic foci measuring
up to 5 mm on the right and 7 mm on the left likely represent
small stones. Within the left upper pole, there is an 8 x 9 x
11 mm avascular hypoechoic lesion with increased through
transmission and internal echogenic debris, which likely
represents a small hemorrhagic cyst. Both kidneys demonstrate
normal cortical thickness with preserved corticomedullary
differentiation. The urinary bladder is partially distended and
unremarkable.
IMPRESSION:
1. Bilateral non-obstructing nephrolithiasis measuring up to 5
mm on the
right and 7 mm on the left.
2. 11-mm renal cyst with echogenic debris in the left upper
pole. While this finding is likely benign (hemorrhagic cyst), a
follow-up ultrasound is recommended in six months to ensure
stability.

Positive for toxigenic C. difficile by the Illumigene
DNA
amplification.
# Blood Cultures x1 (___): Pending.
.
Pathology: None.
.
Imaging/Studies:
# CT Abdomen and Pelvis with contrast (___) : IMPRESSION:
Cholelithiasis with distention of the gallbladder, gallbladder
wall hyperemia and significant surrounding stranding is most
consistent with cholecystitis. Stranding in the transverse colon
as it courses by the gallbladder is most likely secondary
inflammation. Diverticulitis is a consideration given the
diverticulosis in the region, though this is thought to be less
likely. Satisfactory position of the internal-external
intrahepatic biliary drain. No intrahepatic biliary duct
dilation. Unchanged bilateral simple and minimally complex renal
cysts. Unchanged appearance of Paget's disease.
# CXR (___): IMPRESSION: Left-sided IJ catheter tip is in
the mid SVC.
Bibasilar atelectasis and small right pleural effusion.
# RUQ US (___): IMPRESSION:Successful 8 ___ percutaneous
cholecystostomy tube placement under ultrasound guidance.
# CXR (___): IMPRESSION: Increasing bilateral pleural
effusions and interstitial edema. No consolidation to suggest
pneumonia.
# CBD drain Exchange (___): IMPRESSION: Successful
replacement of ___ biliary catheter over a wire. The catheter
should be exchanged in 3 months.
# PTC drain instertion (___): IMPRESSION: Successful
replacement of ___ biliary catheter over a wire. The catheter
should be exchanged in 3 months.
# CXR (___): The lung volumes are low. Improved aeration at
both lung bases with residual minor atelectasis remaining as
well as small pleural effusions, right greater than left.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with dementia with history of HTN, CKD (baseline Cr 1.2-1.3)
h/o cholangitis presented with acute cholecystitis.
.
Acute Diagnoses:
.
# Acute Cholecystitis/Sepsis: On ___ pt had cholangitis sp
biliary drain and antibiotics. Patient presented with RUQ
abdominal pain and was found to have acute cholecystitis.
Surgery was consulted who recommended ___ perc drain. Patient had
new gallbladder drain placed. Bile culture grew GPC and GNR
therefore he was started on vancomycin and Zosyn. His blood
cultures grew GPC with speciation pending at the time of
transfer to the regular floor. He was fluid resuscitated with 6L
NS. He required Levophed for one day which was weaned off
successfully. His CBD drain was electively changed by ___ as well
during this admission. He no longer required pressors and was
transferred to the floor. BC showed GPC. On the floor
vancomycin and Zosyn were continued per ID's recommendations.
His vancomycin trough was low on ___ and his dose was increased
to 1250 mg/day. On ___ he recieved a PICC line and the IV
vancomycin was discontinued since the GPC came back as coag
negative staph and was most likely a contaminant. He will
continue Zosyn until ___ since the bile culture ultimately grew
out clostridium perfringes. His PTC drain cannot be pulled
until 4 weeks after placement and has minimal drainage (<20
cc/day). He will then need to return to the ___
___ clinic to have fluroscopy of drain to see if it could
be removed at that time. He will follow up in the acute care
surgery clinic on ___. He will also follow up in the
infectious disease clinic.
.
#GPC bacteremia: Initially it was thought this may have been
MRSA or MSSA bacteremia from his perc drain because the blood
cultures grew out gram positive cocci. IV vancomycin was
strarted on ___. The vancomycin dose was increased to 1250
mg/day on ___ due to a low vancomycin trough at that time. The
second set of blood cultures on ___ showed no growth and the
vancomycin was discontinued on ___ since the first set of
cultures only came back positive for coag negative staph.
.
#AOCKI: His creatinine rose to 1.4 from 1.2 on ___. This was
likely secondary to dehydration. It continued to rise to 1.5 on
___. All medications were renally dosed and he was given IVF
fluids. His creatitine then returned to baseline.
.
# C-diff: C-diff assay positive. Started on oral vanc on ___ and
will continue until ___.
.
Chronic Diagnoses:
.
# ? History of HIT: Per prior discharge summary. Heparin was
held and pneumoboots were used for DVT prophylaxis.
# Dementia: Alert and oriented x1 which is baseline per his son.
# Depression: Continued mirtazapine.
# BPH: He has a history of urinary retention. A Foley catheter
was placed in the ED. The Foley was discontinued on ___ and he
had no difficulty voiding during this hospital course.
.
Transitional Issues:
# Will follow up with the ___ surgery clinic on ___.
# Will follow up with the ___ clinic in ___ weeks.
# Will follow up with ___ in four weeks to assess the PTC drain.
# Will continue Zosyn through the PICC line for cholecystitis
with bile culture + for c. perfringes until ___ and he will
continue po vancomycin for C diff until ___.

#CAD
#Positive stress test
#Chest Pain
Patient presented with 3 day hx chest pain, new mild TWI V2/V3,
both now resolved, positive p-MIBI with reversible defect. No
troponin elevation. He was medically managed while in the
hospital as it was felt there aws no need for an urgent cardiac
cath. A TTE was ordered to further characterize his heart
function which showed no change from previous TTE.
#Abdominal pain
#N/V
#Constipation
Patient presented w/ significant pain in abdomen especially
post-prandially, with significant tenderness on exam although
not peritoneal, minimal bowel sounds although passing flatus,
lactate initially high but downtrended, acute abdominal series
without any free air or evidence of obstruction, CT without e/o
dissection but with concern for gastric outlet or small bowel
obstruction v gastroparesis in addition to panniculitis or
lymphoma, as well as intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms.
Initially on floor pt w/ multiple episodes of dark emesis, had
not had a bowel movement in days. Patient was given pr dulcolax
as imgaing was more convincing for constipation/obstipation than
obstruction. His symptoms persisted but lessened after he passed
a bowel movement. GI was consulted for diagnostic/management.
They performed an EGD ___ which showed evidence of gastritis
but no evidence of obstruction. Biopsies were sent and H. pylori
was negative. Patient was less nauseous and had no episodes of
emesis since morning after admission so diet was resumed and
tolerated well. Given no evidence of obstruction and continued
constipation w/ PO intake and PO bowel regimen GI felt
colonoscopy was warranted to rule out a malignancy that may have
been causing his symptoms. Colonoscopy performed ___ was poor
prep and GI recommended outpatient colonoscopy.
#New reduced EF
Patient with EF 42% seen on pharma stress test from 49% on prior
evaluation. No evidence of volume overload. Likely ___ ischemia.
Afterload reduction w/ lisinopril, amlodipine, cholrthalidone.
Patient will follow-up as an outpatient with Cardiology.
#Radicular R leg pain
#Low Back Pain
Patient diagnosed with sciatica by his PCP and started on
regimen of tizanidine and gabapentin. During hospital course
patient reporting ___ low back and shooting pains down his
right leg. Endorsed numbness over medial knee however sensory
exam normal. Strength normal. No reg flag symptoms for cord
compression. Given acuity of pain an MRI lumbar spine was
obtained which showed extensive disc disease, nerve root
compression, facet arthropathy throughout the lumbar spine.
Patient's pain was better controlled when began asking for
tizanidine prn as he had not been getting it initially, back
pain less w/ lidocaine patch. Patient will follow-up with
Orthopedics as an outpatient.
CHRONIC ISSUES
==============
#Depression: Continued Paroxetine 30 mg PO DAILY
#Hypertension: Continued chlorthalidone 25mg, amlodipine 5 mg
daily, lisinopril 40mg daily
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
====================
[] Will need repeat CT Abd in ___ months w/ PCP to evaluate
interval changes in abdominal findings. Per Radiology and
Oncology, CT abdomen findings can be seen and should be followed
up with repeat CT scan. No need for oncology follow-up at this
time.
[] Please obtain MRI abdomen w/o contrast to follow-up CT
abdomen findings of Bilateral indeterminate renal lesions and
two cystic lesions in the pancreas tail measuring up to 8 mm
could represent side-branch intraductal papillary mucinous
neoplasms.
[] Ensure patient has cardiology follow-up. Pharmacologic stress
test showed reversible defect with reduced ejection fraction of
42% compared to baseline 49%.
[] Repeat calcium at follow-up visit. If hypercalcemia, consider
further work-up.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you at the ___
___!
WHY WAS I IN THE HOSPITAL?
==========================
- You came to the hospital because you were having chest pain.
- You were admitted to the hospital because you were found to
have fluid in your lungs. This was felt to be due to a condition
called heart failure, where your heart does not pump hard enough
and fluid backs up into your lungs and legs.
WHAT HAPPENED IN THE HOSPITAL?
==============================
- You were given a diuretic medication (water pill) through the
IV to help get the extra fluid out.
- 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 artery blockages.
WHAT SHOULD I DO WHEN I GO HOME?
================================
- Be sure to take all your medications and attend all of your
appointments listed below.
- It is very important to take your aspirin and clopidogrel
(also known as Plavix) every day.
- These two medications keep the stents in the vessels of the
heart open and help reduce your risk of having a future heart
attack.
- If you stop these medications or miss ___ dose, you risk causing
a blood clot forming in your heart stents and having another
heart attack
- Please do not stop taking either medication without taking to
your heart doctor.
- You were kept on other medications to help your heart that you
were already taking, such as atorvastatin, carvedilol, and
lisinopril
- Your weight at discharge is 109.5kg (241.4 lb). Please weigh
yourself today at home and use this as your new baseline
- Please weigh yourself every day in the morning. Call your
doctor if your weight goes up by more than 3 lbs.

currently. Ruled out for MI with enzymes negative x3. TTE
showed global akinesis, no focal wall motion abnormality.
Stress MIBI also showed global hypokinesis. She was treated
with aspirin, metoprolol, lisinopril.
.
# PUMP: Systolic HF, EF ___. Hypervolemic, BNP 13,000 on
admission, now increased to 20,641. TTE shows dramatic decrease
in EF since ___ (50% --> ___. Dry weight not known as
patient has been losing weight at home. She was diuresed to
clinical euvolemia with dry weight ****. PFTs were performed
which revealed normal function, thus any dyspnea was likely due
to cardiac source.
.
# RHYTHM: Periods of atrial fibrillation with RVR, rate 120s at
times despite increase of metoprolol. Beta blockade increased
to provide rate control. Her INR was supratherapeutic on
admission so home warfarin held, this was then restarted as INR
drifted below 2. Given poor LVEF revealed by TTE ___,
diltiazem d/c and started digoxin.
.
# CKD: Creatinine remained at baseline (1.5-1.6) during
admission despite diuresis.
.
# Diarrhea, BRBPR: Patient reported loose stool starting ___,
transitioned to liquid stool with reddish/brown flakes. She
also had evidence of BRB on the paper after wiping, which she
stated does happen at times when she has frequent stooling. No
leukocytosis, remains afebrile. External hemorrhoid evident on
exam. Hct stable. She did not complain of cramping or pain on
stooling, states stool is forming and less blood noted. UA with
straight cath no blood, so this was not hematuria. C diff
negative.
.
# Polycythemia: Unclear if this was primary polycythemia
(polycythemia ___ vs secondary ___ smoking, dehydration,
chronic hypoxia, or epo-secreting tumor). The patient's sister
also noted that the patient had experienced weight loss over the
last several months. Given her recent diarrhea and BRBPR, an

Discharge Instructions:
It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___
___. You were admitted for swelling in your legs,
which was due to worsening of your heart failure. You were
treated for this with diuretics to help you reduce the excess
fluid in your body. You had several tests to investigate your
heart function, including an echocardiogram and a stress test.
These showed worsening of your heart disease. You should
follow-up with a cardiologist to help you manage your
medications and follow your heart function. You were also found
to have an irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation.
This was treated with medications to slow your heart rate and
with warfarin to thin your blood to avoid blood clots.
The following changes were made to your medications:
- STOP hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), a diuretic
- STOP diltiazem, a blood pressure medicine
- CHANGE warfarin dose to 2.5mg daily. Your ___
clinic at ___ will continue to adjust this dose.
- START Lasix (furosemide), a stronger diuretic
- START metoprolol to control your heart rate
- START digoxin to control your heart function
- START lisinopril for blood pressure
- START hydrocortisone topical cream for your hemorrhoid
- START saline nasal spray for nasal congestion
- START loperamide for diarrhea; do not use this for more than a
week
You should follow-up with your physicians as listed below. We
are setting up an appointment with a Cardiologist for you.

MRI/MRA (___): There is an acute subcortical lacunar infarct
in the periventricular white matter. There are extensive severe
changes of small vessel disease and moderate brain atrophy. No
midline shift or hydrocephalus. No micro-hemorrhages. Normal
MRA of the neck and head. The head MRA demonstrates no evidence
of vascular occlusion or stenosis. Slightly diminished
visualization of the sylvian branches is artifactual.
CT Head (___): Markedly motion limited study with continued
evolution of the left periventricular white matter lacunar
infarct without findings to suggest hemorrhagic conversion.
Brief Hospital Course:
Neurology Floor (___):
NEURO: Ms. ___ was admitted to the hospital and her exam was
monitored. She was initially admitted with dysmetria and
diminished right sided strength (but still anti-gravity), which
were attributed to her left lacunar infarct. On ___, she
developed sudden worsening weakness of the right side such that
she had 1+ proximal lower extremity strength but ___ strength in
the rest of her arm and her right leg. A CT was done to look
for hemorrhagic conversion which only showed evolution of the
infarct but no acute bleed.
Given her subtherapeutic INR of 1.2 and history of atrial
fibrillation, she was started on a heparin bridge while her
Coumadin was increased to 5mg QD and INR monitored daily. On
___, her INR was 2.2 so the heparin was discontinued. This
will have to be monitored in rehab.
Her stroke work-up consisted of a HgbA1c of 5.4 and a
cholesterol panel (Tchol 182, ___ 70, HDL 88, LDL 80) so no
modifications were made. Given that this was felt to be most
likely cardioembolic given the severity of the symptoms and the
fact that she has atrial fibrillation and was subtherapeutic on
Warfarin, and that she was being appropriately anti-coagulated
during the admission, it was not felt that an ECHO would provide
new information and this was not complete.
CARDIOVASCULAR: She was maintained on telemetry and had atrial
fibrillation but without RVR. Her metoprolol & digoxin was
continued, but lisinopril and Lasix were held to allow BP to
autoregulate (goal SBP <180). These will have to be restarted
in rehabilitation.
FEN/GI: She was continued on a bowel regimen. She passed a
speech and swallow.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were hospitalized due to symptoms of difficulty walking and
then developed weakness of your right arm and leg. These
symptoms were due to a stroke in your brain. A stroke is a
condition where a blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to
the brain is blocked and so a small part of your brain is
injured.
We believe the reason that you had this stroke is because of
your heart condition called atrial fibrillation. When a person
has atrial fibrillation, they need to be on blood thinners to
prevent clots from forming and causing strokes. The blood
thinner you take, Coumadin, was at too low a level (your INR was
low) so it was not protecting you.
While you were here, we started a medicine called heparin to
thin your blood while we get your Coumadin level more
appropriate (we would like your INR to be between 2 and 3). At
discharge, you had a good Coumadin level (INR was 2.2) so the
heparin was stopped.
When people have strokes, we let their blood pressure be a bit
higher than normal to help blood to get past the clot to the
brain. Therefore, we have temporarily held some of your blood
pressure medications and you will be restarting them at
rehabilitation. Please take your other medications as
___
In addition, you are on medication to help prevent fluid
overload or swelling. Please weigh yourself every morning and
call your primary care doctor or the physician at rehabilitation
if your weight goes up more than 3 lbs.
Please followup with Neurology and your primary care physician
___ 1 week of being discharged from rehabilitation.
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 ___
- 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 ___
- sudden drooping of one side of the ___
- sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body
- sudden difficulty pronouncing words (slurring of
___
- sudden blurring or doubling of ___
- sudden onset of vertigo (sensation of your environment
spinning around ___
- 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.

SVC.
Multiple lung nodules are better seen on the chest CT from ___. No focal consolidation
___ TTE: The left atrium and right atrium are normal in cavity
size. The estimated right atrial pressure is ___ mmHg. Left
ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity size are normal. There
is moderate regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with
hypokinesis of the inferior septum, inferior and inferolateral
walls. The remaining segments contract normally. Quantitative
(biplane) LVEF = 41 %. Right ventricular chamber size and free
wall motion are normal. The descending thoracic aorta is mildly
dilated. The aortic valve leaflets (?#) appear structurally
normal with good leaflet excursion. There is no aortic valve
stenosis. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve
leaflets are structurally normal with trivial mitral
regurgitation is seen. [Due to acoustic shadowing, the severity
of mitral regurgitation may be significantly UNDERestimated.]
There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is
an anterior space which most likely represents a prominent fat
pad.
IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality. Normal left ventricular
cavity size with regional systolic dysfunciton suggestive of
CAD.Mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. Mildly dilated
descending thoracic aorta.

Brief Hospital Course:
====================
BRIEF SUMMARY
====================
___ year old male with history of CAD s/p CABGx4 (___), MVR
(___), systolic CHF (EF 45%), HTN, pAfib post-CABG not on
anticoagulation, presenting with dyspnea in the setting of
cough, congestion, and sick contacts. He was initially febrile
per EMS at 100.6, and has been afebrile since. Peak flow was 150
in the ED, suggestive of obstructive process. This was thought
to be most likely bronchitis, but given that he improved
significantly after receiving broad treatment in the ED with
nebs, prednisone, and CTX/azithromycin, he was discharged with a
short course of prednisone and azithromycin. He was satting well
at rest and with ambulation on room air at discharge.
=======================
PROBLEM-BASED SUMMARY
=======================
ACUTE ISSUES:
# Dyspnea
# Cough, fever, leukocytosis
He presented with dyspnea for two days, in the setting of URI
symptoms, fever and WBC 15.9 on presentation. Peak flow in the
ED was 150, suggestive of an obstructive process. He is a never
smoker and does not have known COPD. He has systolic CHF (EF
45%) with elevated BNP on admission (no prior BNP for baseline),
but he appeared euvolemic on exam and there was low suspicion
for CHF exacerbation. CXR did not show pneumonia, but did
suggest bronchitis. He did improve markedly after receiving
broad treatment with nebs, prednisone, and CTX/azithromycin and
IV Lasix in the ED. Given his symptomatic improvement, with
persistent diffuse wheezing on exam, he was continued for a
short 5-day course of prednisone 40 and azithromycin 250 for
anti-inflammatory effect, as well as albuterol and fluticasone.
He was satting well on room air and did not desaturate with
ambulation on day of discharge. He was instructed to check peak
flow twice daily at home and call PCP for peak flow <200. He
will likely need outpatient PFTs once he is back to baseline.
# Systolic congestive heart failure
He has a known history of sCHF (EF 45%). There was initial
concern for a mild CHF exacerbation contributing to his dyspnea,
with an elevated BNP 2989 (no priors for comparison), and he
received 20 IV Lasix x1 in the ED. However, he appeared
euvolemic on exam, so home Lasix 20 PO daily was restarted. He
was continued on metoprolol succinate and lisinopril.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
# Obstructive sleep apnea: He has had a positive sleep study,
but has not started CPAP at home. He was trialed on CPAP
overnight in-house and tolerated it well. He will need
outpatient follow up for CPAP and sleep apnea.
# Chronic left lower extremity edema: Unchanged per patient. No
DVT on ___.
# History of pAfib: He has a history of paroxysmal a fib
post-CABG for which he was previously on admiodarone. He was
monitored on telemetry overnight and did not have any events.
# CAD: s/p 4v CABG-MVR. Troponin neg x2 this admission, no
changes on ECG. He was continued on home ASA, statin,
metoprolol.
# HTN: Continued on home metoprolol succinate 50 mg daily and
lisinopril 15 mg daily.
# Depression: continued escitalopram 10 mg daily
========================
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
========================
- Patient has been instructed to check peak flow BID at home,
and to call PCP for peak flow <200.
- Consider outpatient PFTs once he is asymptomatic.
- Needs outpatient sleep follow up for initiation of CPAP.

Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
___ Left video-assisted thoracoscopic blebectomy with
mechanical and chemical pleurodesis
History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year old male with history significant for
multiple spontaneous pneumothoracies, (1 left sided, 3 right
sided treated with chest tubes) and previous VATS right upper
lobe blebectomy with mechanical and chemical pleurodesis
performed on ___ by Dr. ___. He was most recently
discharged from ___ on ___ after being re-admitted for
recurrent right pneumothorax which was successfully treated with
a pigtail catheter and talc pleurodesis.
Mr. ___ returned to the ED on ___ with report of sharp
left-sided chest pain that occurred when he first woke up and
stretched this morning. He states that it was identical in
quality to episodes of pain associated with his previous
pneumothoracies. Initially he did not seek medical attention as
the discomfort was relatively minor and he had no other
associated complaints. However the pain progressively increased
over the next several hours and he eventually presented to the
ED
for further evaluation.
In the Emergency Department the patient was hemodynamically
stable and saturating 100% on room air. Chest X-ray was obtained
and demonstrated a small apical left pneumothorax.
Given his extensive history of pneumothoracies, it was
determined
most appropriate to admit the patient to the Thoracic Surgery

Pertinent Results:
RADIOLOGY:
Chest X-ray ___: Admission CXR
There is a small left-sided apical
pneumothorax. The right side shows no evidence of pneumothorax.
The left lung is clear. The right lung has persistent opacity at
the right lung base along the pleura consistent with the
patient's history of pleurodesis. No rib fractures are seen. The
cardiomediastinal silhouette is unremarkable. The hilar contours
are unremarkable. No signs of tension are seen.
IMPRESSION: Small left apical pneumothorax with no signs of
tension
Chest X-ray ___
Moderate left pneumothorax is unchanged. Cardiomediastinal
contours are
unchanged and midline. Surgical chain sutures are present in the
right apex.
Blunting of the cardiophrenic angles on the right could be due
to small
pleural effusion, pleural thickening, or findings post
pleurodesis. Right
lower opacity secondary to pleurodesis, is also unchanged. There
are no new lung abnormalities
Chest X-ray ___: Post-op CXR
As compared to the previous radiograph, the patient has
undergone a
left blebectomy. Two left-sided chest tubes after VATS are
visible. The
presence of a minimal millimetric pneumothorax cannot be
excluded, but the
pneumothorax is smaller than before the intervention, as
documented on the
previous image from ___.
No evidence of tension. Mild retrocardiac atelectasis. Normal
right lung
Chest X-ray ___:
Two left-sided chest tubes remain in place, one of which
terminates in the
apex and the other of which extends over the apex and down the
medial border into the left costophrenic angle. There is some
soft tissue containing loculated air at the left apex, but this
appearance is unchanged from ___ and may reflect a
combination of postoperative changes and/or a loculated
pneumothorax. Continued followup imaging would be advised. A
small amount of residual subcutaneous emphysema is seen in the
lower lateral left chest wall. No focal airspace consolidation
or pleural effusions are seen. Overall, cardiac and mediastinal
contours are stable. Interval decrease in the amount of gas
within the stomach. Surgical chain sutures are again seen at
both apices. Right lateral pleural thickening is stable and may
be result of talc pleurodesis, pleural thickening, less likely
effusion.
Brief Hospital Course:
The patient was admitted for further monitoring of his
spontaneous left pneumothorax. Follow-up chest X-rays performed
on the next day demonstrated stability in the size of his
pneumothorax, and he was pre-op'ed and consented for a VATS left
sided blebectomy with mechanical and chemical pleurodesis which
was performed on ___.
The procedure was uncomplicated and 2 chest tubes were placed.
Post-operatively the patient did well and was transferred to the
floors in good condition. His chest tubes were placed on suction
x48 hours and he was saturating well on room air.
By post-operative day 2 the patient was ambulating with chest
tubes on temporary water seal.
On post-operative day 3 the patient's chest tubes were placed on
water seal for 4 hours with repeat chest X-ray demonstrating no
significant change as compared to prior.
The chest tubes were removed and a post-pull film demonstrated a
tiny residual left pneumothorax which remained stable on
follow-up X-ray repeated 4 hours later. At that time it was
determined surgically appropriate to discharge the patient home
without need of services. At the time of discharge the patient's
pain was well controlled on oral pain medications, he was
tolerating a regular diet, was ambulating well independently,
saturating well on room air with no respiratory complaints, and
had remained afebrile through-out the entirety of his hospital
course. He will follow up with Dr. ___ in 2 weeks with a
follow-up chest X-ray in clinic.

IMAGING AND STUDIES
===================
TTE ___:
Conclusions:
Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal. The right
ventricle has normal free wall motion. There is a small (up to
0.6 cm inferolateral to the left ventricle) to moderate (up to
1.4 cm anterior to the
right ventricle) circumferential pericardial effusion. The
effusion is echo dense, c/w blood, inflammation or other
cellular elements. There are no 2D or Doppler echocardiographic
evidence of tamponade.
IMPRESSION: Small to moderate circumferential, echodense
pericardial effusion without echocardiographic evidence for
increased pericardial pressure/tamponade physiology.
Compared with the prior TTE ___ , respiratory variation
of the mitral inflow pattern is no longer appreciated.
PET ___:
1. Increased radiotracer uptake within the subcutaneous tissues
and
paraspinal musculature extending along the pedicle screws and
interconnecting rod on the right at T7 and T8, suspicious for
infection. No increased radiotracer uptake to suggest discitis
or an epidural abscess. 2. Small pericardial effusion with mild
peripheral FDG uptake; the FDG may be due pharmacokinetics of
the effusion, but could possibly reflect infection. 3. Focus of
FDG avidity along the right pericardium without a definite CT
correlate, likely a reactive epicardial lymph node. There also
nonenlarged axillary lymph nodes with low level FDG uptake, also
likely reactive in nature. 4. Multiple foci of radiotracer
uptake throughout the large bowel, which appear to correlate
with stool and are likely physiologic. 5. Smooth septal
thickening at the lung bases bilaterally, compatible with mild
fluid overload. Small bilateral pleural
effusions with loculated components in the major fissures.
CXR ___:
In comparison with the study of ___, the pericardial drain
has been
removed. There may be a small residual component of air in the

consistent with mild decrease in pleural effusion, though
residual atelectasis is again seen. Left hemidiaphragm is
obscured consistent with substantial volume loss in the left
lower lobe and possible small effusion.

Brief Hospital Course:
SUMMARY:
========
___ with history of rheumatic heart disease, T4-5 epidural
abscess/discitis c/b MSSA bacteremia s/p multiple courses of
antibiotics (currently on cefazolin), HCV, CKD stage III, opiate
use disorder with prior intravenous drug use currently on
methadone, and mild cognitive impairment who presents with acute
onset fevers and nausea/vomiting likely ___ gastroenteritis.
ACUTE ISSUES:
=============
# Viral gastroenteritis
Patient presented with acute onset GI symptoms over the past
48hrs including fevers, nausea, and vomiting. Her husband also
experienced self-resolved abdominal pain/diarrhea just
beforehand. Most likely viral gastroenteritis, however, given
her complicated history of MSSA bacteremia/thoracic spinal
phelgmon (now s/p spinal hardware removal early ___ iso
infection), she was admitted overnight for monitoring. Spine was
consulted in ED and evaluated patient, without concern for
surgical site infection. Blood and urine cultures negative thus
far. No leukocytosis, LFTs wnl (AST elevation likely ___
hemolysis), liapse wnl. CXR showed small right pleural effusion
with loculated fluid along the lateral pleural surface. However,
this was also noted on prior CXR and patient has no respiratory
symptoms. Treated supportively with IVF on admission. Held off
on antibiotics given unclear source.
Since admission, her nausea and vomiting have since resolved,
and she has been afebrile. Patient is tolerating POs and feels
comfortable for discharge today. She is agreeable to return to
the ED or call her PCP if symptoms recur or worsen at home. Will
recommend follow up with PCP ___ 1 week of discharge.
Otherwise, continue home cefazolin and follow up with ID as
scheduled.
# Right chest opacity on CXR
CXR showed possible small R pleural effusion with loculated
fluid along the lateral pleural surface. Cannot rule out
underlying consolidation. Aspiration iso recent emesis is also
possible, as patient is at increased risk of aspiration given
history of esophageal dysmotility. However, no luekocytosis, no
respiratory symptoms, no pleuritic chest pain. Strep pneumo
antigen pending, legionella negative. Will hold off on
antibiotics, as patient's symptoms have resolved as above.
Recommend follow up chest x-ray vs. CT chest as an outpatient to
ensure resolution.
# Acute kidney injury
Baseline Cr 1.0, report of CKD III. Cr 1.8 at CHA prior to
transfer to ___ ED, now 1.4. UA is unremarkable. Suspect
prerenal iso acute infection and GI losses. Treated with IVF, Cr
down-trending (1.3) at discharge. Would recommend repeat
chemistry panel at 1 week follow up with PCP to ensure
___.
# Altered mental status
Patient has reported mild cognitive impairment at baseline, but
her husband noted increased confusion AM ___. Upon my
examination, patient is AOx3, attentive and interactive (she is
somewhat delayed on performance of days of the week backwards,
though is correct), no focal neurologic deficits. Mild
toxic-metabolic encephalopathy is most likely iso acute
infection and fevers. Serum/urine tox negative. Patient's mental
status improved throughout admission. Per husband, patient at
baseline at discharge.
# Normocytic anemia
Chronic anemia thought to be multifactorial, AoCD/CKD as well as
Fe deficiency, all exacerbated iso acute illness. Patient was
administered IV iron during her recent hospitalization. Hb is
down to 7.5, had been ___ during her recent admission. EGD
___ was notable for abnormal esophageal motility/dilation,
erythematous mucosa in the gastric antrum (chronic inactive
gastritis, H pylori NEGATIVE). Colonoscopy ___ was notable
for non-bleeding internal hemorrhoids. Patient denies any
black/bloody stool. She does think that she may have had some
bloody urine, though UA in the ED was negative. Would recommend
PCP follow up as an outpatient, with repeat CBC in 1 week
post-discharge.
# Elevated INR
Possibly related to nutrition and ongoing antibiotics. Treated
with PO VitK challenge during admission.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
===============
# Spinal hardware infection s/p hardware removal ___ -
Surgical site appears to be healing well, no signs of localized
infection. Patient was evaluated by spine in the ED without
concern for infection. Will continue spine follow up as
scheduled.
# Pericardial effusion s/p pericardiocentesis ___
Patient was evaluated by cardiology in the ED, noted to have
only small pericardial effusion on bedside TTE, unlikely to be
contributing to current symptoms. Previous echo ___ showing
interval decrease in effusion after pericardiocentesis.
# GERD, hx of esophageal dysmotility and gastritis
Continue home pantoprazole 40mg qd.
# Opiate use disorder
Continue home methadone. Will provide last dose letter at
discharge.
# Overactive bladder
Continue home oxybutynin 10mg ER BID.
# Pruritus
Continue home doxepin 10mg qHS.
# Anxiety/depression
Continue home sertraline.
# Hypotyroidism
Continue home synthroid ___ qd.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
====================
[] F/U final blood and urine cultures
[] F/U streptococcus pneumoniae antigen
[] CXR with small R pleural effusion with loculated fluid along
the lateral pleural surface. Cannot rule out underlying
consolidation. Consider repeat CXR as an outpatient to ensure
resolution.

discharge. Would recommend repeat chemistry panel at 1 week
follow up with PCP to ensure continued ___.
[] Continue home cefazolin and follow up with ID as scheduled.
[] HgB 7.5 on admission, stable, but lower than prior admission.
Likely multifactorial, AoCD/CKD as well as Fe deficiency, all
exacerbated iso acute illness. Would recommend PCP follow up as
an outpatient, with repeat CBC in 1 week post-discharge.
[] Consider MRI thoracic spine to evaluate surgical site should
patient develop new back pain or other findings concerning for
abscess/osteomyelitis at surgical site
[] Received home methadone dose during admission, confirmed to
be 89mg daily. Provided last dose letter and discharge paperwork
at discharge.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you at the ___
___!
Why was I admitted to the hospital?
-You were admitted because you had nausea, vomiting, fevers, and
confusion.
What happened while I was in the hospital?

negative.
- You were given fluids through your IV and monitored in the
hospital, and your symptoms have improved.
- Of note, you had a chest x-ray which showed some fluid in your
lung. We don't think this is infection, because you do not have
any cough, shortness of breath, etc. to suggest pneumonia.
However, it should be followed by your primary care provider
with repeat imaging. - If any of your symptoms worsen, or new
symptoms that concern you develop, please call your primary care
doctor or come into the ED.
What should I do after leaving the hospital?
- Please take your medications as listed in discharge summary
and follow up at the listed appointments.

multiple course of antibiotics most recently on cefazolin now
transitioned back to suppressive doxycycline, HCV, CKD stage
III, opiate use disorder with prior intravenous drug use
currently on methadone, and mild cognitive impairment presenting
with fever and productive cough, found to have RML opacification
on admission, who developed very transient hypotension requiring
vasopressor support admitted for septic shock from presumed
pulmonary source. Patient improved rapidly and antibiotics were

esophageal dysmotility previously worked up with barium swallow,
EGD, and manometry at ___.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
====================
[ ] Patient should continue cefpodoxime 200mg PO BID until ___
to complete a course for CAP.
[ ] Patient should follow up with PCP ___ 1 week of discharge
[ ] Please reinforce teaching about eating smaller meals, while
sitting up, and avoiding lying down immediately after a meal
given her esophageal dysmotility. Lifestyle modification may
help to avoid further aspiration episodes.

History of Present Illness:
The pt is a ___ year old right handed man without significant
past
medical history who presents for evaluation of right hemispheric
stroke. History is obtained from patient and his wife.
The pt was last known well at 4:45pm yesterday ___.
His
wife had been out of town visiting relatives and ___ with him
at that time, in which he had not endorsed any acute complaints.
At 10pm, she sent him a text without response, but she thought
he
was sleeping given a recent viral respiratory illness, and did
not call. This morning, she was in the airport on her way back
and called him at 9am. He did not answer and, concerned, she
called the police to check on him. Per the patient, he states
that he had a fall at 8pm last evening after his legs "felt like
jelly". He is unable to specify which leg or both. He did not
lose consciousness, but was unable to move from his place on the
ground. This morning, police arrived to check on him and he
recalls hearing them yell through the door, then breaking open
the door. He was subsequently found and brought by ambulance to
___ in ___, where he was found to
have left facial droop, hemiplegia, and sensory loss.
Noncontrast
head CT was performed and showed hypodensity and loss of
gray-white matter differentiation in the right cerebral
hemisphere. He was given aspirin 325mg PO and transferred to
___.
At ___ ED, pt was given dose of flagyl and levofloxacin for a
?report from EMS of an aspiration pneumonia, however it is not
clear on what basis as there was no CXR image or report arriving
with him. Wife arrived from her flight and met him here in the
ED.
ROS is limited as pt has somewhat poor recall of recent events,
but he does endorse frontal headache and severe low back pain.
He
also acknowledges that he cannot move or feel his left hand
unless he touches it right his right. He did have recent cough
and congestion. He denies similar symptoms in past, and denies
chest pain or palpitations.

Brief Hospital Course:
SUMMARY:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year-old man who presented on with fall on ___
and was found to have extensive right hemispheric strokes. He
has significant left sided visospatial and motor neglect, left
arm plegia and sensory loss, as well as headache. MRI shows
multifocal right MCA infarcts and posterior infarcts in the
setting of a fetal PCA. Etiology is likely cardioembolic,
however TTE was negative. He was observed in the
neuro-intermediate unit for malignant edema and possible need
for hemi-craniectomy. Neurosurgery was consulted. He was
transferred to the Neuro-ICU for hyperosmolar therapy.
Unfortunately, he subsequently developed worsening swelling and
uncal herniation on repeat imaging. He was found to have
worsening of his malignant R MCA and PCA infarcts. Decision was
made to undergo right hemicraniectomy on ___. Post-operative
course was complicated by hemorrhagic conversion and increased
brain swelling after surgery. He initially received hyperosmolar
therapy with resulting stabilization in edema. He improved
slightly neurologically, but remained with dense left sided
neglect, left hemiparesis with some movement to noxious stimuli,
and inattention. He is also status post a tracheostomy and PEG
given respiratory failure and significant dysphagia.
Etiology for the patient's stroke remains UNKNOWN at this time.
Of highest concern was a cardioembolic source, but patient did
not have any atrial fibrillation noted on telemetry during
hospitalization. TTE was negative for thrombus, but imaging
quality was suboptimal. Differential also included underlying
hypercoagulability, for which the workup is still pending. His
neck and head vessel imaging (with CTA head and carotid
ultrasound of neck) did not reveal any significant vascular
disease. He also had lower extremity vascular ultrasounds which
were negative for DVT.
*************
HOSPITAL COURSE BY PROBLEM:
#Malignant Right MCA ischemic stroke:
On ___, repeat CT showed increased midline shift of 10mm, and
worsening edema. He became progressively more somnolent, raising
concerns for potential malignant MCA syndrome and herniation. An
arterial line and central line were placed for hypertonic
saline. He was taken to the OR with neurosurgery for emergent
decompressive hemicraniectomy. He was subsequently transferred
to the NICU. He was intubated prior to the procedure. A repeat
CT later in the evening showed large hemorrhagic conversion of
the infarct, likely as a result of relieved pressure on the
ischemic penumbra. Midline shift improved. Hypertonic saline was
discontinued. Blood pressure goal was liberalized to less than
180 24 hours after craniectomy. He was started on subcutaneous
heparin 24 hours post op. 48 hour scan showed extensive
hemorrhagic conversion, worsened midline shift, penumbral edema.
He became more somnolent and less able to follow commands. He
was started on hyperosmolar therapy with improvement of his
exam. Aspirin was started on POD 3. Based on his clinical
status, early tracheostomy and PEG placement was considered. He
underwent a trach/PEG on ___.
As stated above, the etiology for the patient's strokes is
UNKNOWN at this time. Of highest concern was a cardioembolic
source, but patient did not have any atrial fibrillation noted
on telemetry during hospitalization. TTE was negative for
thrombus BUT IMAGING QUALITY WAS SUBOPTIMAL, THEREFORE AN
UNDERLYING PAROXIDICAL EMBOLUS CANNOT BE EXCLUDED AT THIS TIME.
Differential also included underlying hypercoagulability, for
which the workup is still pending. His neck and head vessel
imaging (with CTA head and carotid ultrasound of neck) did not
reveal any significant vascular disease. He also had lower
extremity vascular ultrasounds which were negative for DVT.
Stroke risk factors revealed A1c 5.4, LDL 112 and TSH 1.7. The
initial hypercoagulability workup was notable for lupus
anticoagulant negative, D Dimer 508.
He was started on fluoxetine 20mg daily to help with motor
recovery and for depressed mood.
**IMPORTANT***
-IT IS CRITICAL THAT PATIENT COMPLETES TEE as an outpatient.
-Must complete genetic testing for underlying hypercoagulability
with Factor V Leiden and Prothrombin Gene Mutation
-Ordered for ___ of Hearts, 30 day event monitor, to look for
atrial fibrillation
- The remainder of the hypercoagulability workup was still
pending at time of discharge (cardiolipin and beta 2
glycoprotein) and needs to be followed up.
# Headache: Patient had extensive headache after the
hemicraniectomy managed with Tylenol and Oxycodone 5 mg PO/NG
Q4H:PRN.
# GPC bacteremia: While in the ICU, patient was started on
vancomycin and unasyn for GPC in blood, though this was felt to
be a contaminant. Post-operatively, the patient spiked a fever
to 101.2 on POD 1 and was continued on vancomycin and cefepime.
Overall, this was felt to be a contaminant, but in the setting
of possible aspiration post stroke and recent operation, he
completed 7 day course of cefepime 2gm q8 (___).
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
**IMPORTANT***
-IT IS CRITICAL THAT PATIENT COMPLETES TEE as an outpatient.
-Must complete genetic testing for underlying hypercoagulability
with Factor V Leiden and Prothrombin Gene Mutation
-Ordered for ___ of Hearts, 30 day event monitor, to look for
atrial fibrillation
- The remainder of the hypercoagulability workup was still
pending at time of discharge (cardiolipin and beta 2
glycoprotein) and needs to be followed up.
-Please follow up with Neurology and Neurosurgery as scheduled
-Continue aspirin 81mg daily and atorvastatin 40mg daily for
stroke secondary prevention. PENDING RESULTS OF
HYPERCOAGULABILITY WORKUP, MAY CONSIDER ANTICOAGULATION AT A
LATER TIME. CURRENTLY IT IS TOO EARLY TO DO SO GIVEN HEMORRHAGIC

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
You were hospitalized due to symptoms of left sided weakness and
facial droop, resulting from an ACUTE ISCHEMIC STROKE, a
condition where a blood vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to
the brain is blocked by a clot. 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:
high cholesterol
male gender
We are changing your medications as follows:
-Added aspirin 81mg daily
-Added Atorvastatin 40mg daily
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

History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ male with history of right MCA and PCA
ischemic infarcts in ___ complicated by swelling s/p
right
hemicraniectomy with subsequent reconstruction in ___, as
well as a residual large chronic right subdural collection, and
had a secondarily generalized seizure in ___, presenting
with generally feeling fatigued, globally weak, and with 3
events
concerning for focal tonic-clonic seizure of the left lower
extremity in the past week.
He is followed by Dr. ___ in the ___ Stroke Clinic,
last
on ___.
He has been working with physical therapy consistently and
making
progress over the past several months. Typically he is able to
participate with ___ without extreme fatigue, but this past week
was harder than usual. He feels he may be "coming down with
something". He notes he has been more off balance, feeling warm
and sweating at night. While at ___ on ___ he felt
lightheaded and weak and had to sit down (BP reportedly
120/70s).
He also notes that he has had increasing "leg spasms" in his
left
arm and leg over the last week that seem to be getting worse,
and
are associated with some numbness. His wife notes his tone
seems
increased.
Notably, he has been on a titration schedule with his AEDs,
weaning off Keppra and going up on Oxcarbazepine because he was
not tolerating the Keppra due to mood side effects (despite
trial
of B6). The last change was 3 days ago when he reached the goal
dose of OXC (450mg BID) and took his last dose of Keppra (had
been 500mg BID, went to 500mg daily for 1 week then off).
Additionally, he was previously on a higher dose of gabapentin,
but that dose is now ___ TID.
His wife notes he has only had one prior known seizure in which
he became unresponsive, otherwise she has not noticed any events
concerning for seizure. He has had significant clonus in the
past, but he retains awareness and is able to stand throughout
that, it occurs most when he is exerting himself with ___.
However, over the last 3 days he has had 3 events concerning for
seizure. The first was in bed on ___ night she recalls his
left leg jerking forcefully in bed for about 30 seconds. Then
yesterday he went to lunch with friends, and he went to the
restroom where the door was very heavy and difficult to open, he
lost his balance and nearly fell but someone caught him, at that
time he had rhythmic leg jerking (I mimicked tonic-clonic
jerking
to his wife and she said it looked like that) that lasted ___
seconds then stopped on its own. He was then able to walk to
the
car and take a few steps. Then this morning, he was washing his
hands in the bathroom and he had sudden onset rhythmic left
cheek
twitching with drooling followed by left arm stiffening (still
flexed at elbow as it usually is) and left leg jerking, lasting
about 30 seconds. His wife noticed his left facial droop seemed
more significant. He was not sleepy afterwards and did not lose
consciousness. However, it made him very nervous so his wife
called ___ and he was taken to OSH.
He was taken to ___ where he had labs, notably his
sodium is normal at 141. He had a NCHCT that was stable. He
was
transferred to ___ for further management given his care is
generally here.
Of note, the etiology of his stroke is unknown; he underwent a
coagulation screening that was normal. He had mild
hyperlipidemia
before the stroke and he's now taking atorvastatin. He
underwent
___ monitor which did not show presence of atrial
fibrillation.
He was evaluated for a LinQ monitor last week and that was going
to be placed in the near future.
On neuro ROS, he denies headache, loss of vision, he does have
diplopia at times and recently got prism glasses for this. No
dysarthria, dysphagia, vertigo, tinnitus or hearing difficulty.
He has been lightheaded with ___ this week. Denies difficulties
comprehending speech, at baseline he is a bit slower to get
words
out than previously.
On general review of systems, he denies recent fever, but has
had
chills. Denies cough, shortness of breath. He has had some
stomach upset, not significant vomiting, no diarrhea, some
constipation. He thinks he is urinating more at night. No
dysuria. He is scheduled to get Botox to left side in a few
weeks.

FINDINGS:
Cardiomegaly is noted with pulmonary edema and trace pleural
effusions, right
greater than left. No pneumothorax. Bony structures intact.
Degenerative AC
joint arthropathy.
IMPRESSION:
Findings compatible with congestive heart failure.
CXR ___
FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, there is no
relevant
change. Moderate fluid overload, combined to cardiomegaly and a
small right
pleural effusion. Hemodialysis catheter in situ. The
retrocardiac
atelectasis that pre-existed is less severe than on the previous
exam. No
newly appeared focal parenchymal opacities suggesting pneumonia.
ECHO ___:
The left atrium is moderately dilated. There is moderate
symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The left ventricular
cavity size is normal. Due to suboptimal technical quality, a
focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. Overall
left ventricular systolic function is low normal (LVEF 55%).
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)
appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no
aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve
leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve
prolapse. Mild to moderate (___) mitral regurgitation is seen.
The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is a
small pericardial effusion. There are no echocardiographic signs
of tamponade.
Compared with the findings of the prior study (images reviewed)
of ___, the findings are similar, but the
technically suboptimal nature of both studies precludes
definitve comparison.
CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION ___
FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
1. Severe 3 vessel CAD. CAGG not a good option given no LAD or
RCA
targets.
2. Moderate elevated right sided and moderate to severely
elevated left
sided filling pressures.
3. Preserved cardiac output.
CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION ___
COMMENTS:
1. Successful PCI of Ramus with Resolute 2.75 X 22mm stent
2. Successful PCI of LCX/OM1 with Resolute 2.75 X 26mm stent
FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
1. Severe 3 vessel CAD
2. Success PCI with DESs of Ramus (Resolute 2.75 X 22mm) and
LCX/OM2
(Resolute 2.75 X 26mm).
3. ASA 81mg indefinitely. Prefer Prasugrel 60mg load and 10mg
daily for
___ year. ___ change to Plavix 75mg daily after 6 month
uninterrupted use
of Prasugrel.
4. Risk factor reduction
5. A terumo pressure band was applied to right radial artery at
the
conclusion of procedure.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ M with complex medical hx incl ESRD, DM2, CHF, p/w NSTEMI.
Hospital course complicated by acute renal failure requiring
initiation of dialysis and staged cardiac catheterization.
# NSTEMI.
Pt admitted from OSH for unstable angina, found to have trop of
1.26 and elevated MB. ECG showed lateral ST-changes. Continued
on heparin and plavix loaded. On the floor pt denied CP, SOB. Pt
initially refused catheterization fearing it might lead to
accelerated need for hemodialysis. After several conversations
w/ attending physician, pt weighed risks and benefits of
procedure and agreed to proceed. Pt appeared overloaded prior to
procedure, and received 60 IV lasix X 2 with good urine output.
He was still mildly volume positive before catheterization,
judged to be acceptable in the setting of ESRD. He received left
heart catheterization ___, revealing signficant disease with
complicated lesions in his LAD and LCx. However, he received a
large amount of dye and his case was aborted given the desire to
avoid the need for hemodialysis given his ESRD.
The patient remained chest pain free between his diagnostic cath
___ and therapeutic cath ___ on maximal medical regimen
including heparin gtt (48 hrs) ASA 325mg, plavix, metoprolol and
statin.
On ___, the patient had a DES to Ramus and DES to LCx/OM2. He
tolerated the procedure well. He has follow-up with his
outpatient cardiologist Dr. ___ in the coming weeks.
ESRD.
Pt had AVF placed six months prior to this admission, and
revision two weeks prior. Pt desires transplant and expressed
strong wish to postpone dialysis as long as possible. Renal
consulted for management of catheterization in setting of ESRD;
recommended simultaneous hydration and diuresis. Unfortunately
after cath ___, patient creatinine began to rise from 3.5 to
8.8, necessitating urgent dialysis. Unfortunately, the patient's
AV fistula was still too immature for use and a tunnel catheter
was placed ___. Mr ___ tolerated dialysis well and went for
subsequent treatments after his second cardiac cath ___. He has
been discharged with outpatient dialysis MWF, which he will
likely require long term. He also has outpatient follow up with
the transplant service.
Dirty UA with positive Urine culture
The patient had a dirty UA and a positive urine culture that
grew Klebsiella. The patient was asymptomatic. He completed a 7
day course of ciprofloxacin while in house.
Depression
While in house, the patient had passive suicidal ideations and a
depressed mood. He was seen by psychiatry, who recommended long
term therapy and medication. The patient refused both. The
psychiatry team spoke with the patient's health care proxy and
sister in law, who felt the patient was not safe at home with a
firearm. Psych had the local police department (for whom the
patient used to work) confiscate Mr ___ firearm from his
home. The patient denies any homicidal or suicidal ideations at
discharge.
Anemia
The patient appeared to have anemia from iron deficiency and
chronic kidney disease. Guaiac of stools was negative. He was
kept on PO iron and also received EPO treatments at dialysis.
Past Hx of Fournier's Gangrene c/b bowel resection.
The patient had no active issues with his ostomy site.
Diabetes
The patient had 2 episodes of AM hypoglycemia. His basal insulin
dose was decreased and his bolus doses were increased to limit
post-prandial hyperglycemia.
Transitional Issues
The patient is confirmed DNR/DNI
He will continue to follow up with Nephrology at dialysis. He
also has an appointment with the transplant team. The patient's
fistula should continue to be monitored to determine when it
will be mature enough for use. Hopefully, he will not need the
tunnel catheter for a prolonged period of time.
Cardiologist Dr ___ will monitor for symptoms of angina
post-cath. Echo in house revealed normal ejection fraction with
restrictive physiology.

Discharge Instructions:
You came to the hospital with chest pain and shortness of
breath. An electrocardiogram and blood tests showed you were
having a heart attack. A cardiac catheterization revealed
extensive coronary artery disease. Due to your renal disease, no
stents were placed initially to limit the amount of contrast
injected into your body. Unfortunately, this contrast still
caused severe kidney damage that caused you to need dialysis.
Your AV fistula was not mature enough to be used and a tunneled
catheter was placed in your R chest.
You tolerated dialysis very well and you will continue to need
Dialysis as an outpatient. This will be done every ___,
___, and ___ @3PM at ___ Renal ___. It
will start @230PM on ___.
When your renal function stabilized, a second cardiac
catheterization was performed and 2 stents were placed in 2
different diseased arteries. With these stents, you must
continue to take Aspirin. You have been switched from Plavix to
Prasugrel, which is a very similar medication. Please see all of
your medication changes below
Please follow up with your PCP, ___, and
Kidney Transplant physicians at the appointment times listed
below.
It was a true pleasure taking care of you, Mr ___

takedown on ___ who presents from rehab with lower abdominal
pain. He was recently admitted from ___ for the colostomy
takedown and did very well and was discharged to rehab. He was
doing well at rehab and reports he was actually discharged to
home today, but this AM he had suddent dull, crampy discomfort
in his lower abdomen after eating breakfast. Mild nausea. Rated
pain as ___, non-radiating. No alleviating or exacerbating
factors. No fevers. Chills yesterday. No vomiting/diarrhea. Has
been having BMs daily but says they're small (not like his
usual).
In the ED intial vitals were: 98.9 90 154/71 16 96% ra. Exam
notable for tenderness in LUQ and RLQ. Labs notable for
macrocytic anemia, mild thrombocytopenia to 146, K 5.4 and Cr
elevated consistent with known ESRD. CT abd/pelvis obtained and
showed moderate fecal loading, intact colonic anastamosis, and
no other focal abnormalities. Colorectal surgery was consulted
and recommended bowel regimen and discharge. Renal was also
consulted due to concern that he would need to be dialyzed given
the contrast load from the CT, however they also recommended
discharge and no need for HD over the weekend unless he
developed symptoms of pulmonary edema. Given that he came from
rehab, however, it was felt he could not be discahrged home, so
he was admitted for case management assistance. VS on transfer

MR HEAD W/O CONTRAST; MRA BRAIN W/O CONTRAST; MRA NECK W/O
CONTRAST
MRI HEAD: There is an area of slow diffusion seen in the left
medial temporal
lobe, occipital lobe and in the left thalamus consistent with a
left posterior
cerebral artery territory stroke. There are no foci of abnormal
susceptibility to suggest hemorrhagic conversion. Ventricles and
sulci appear
age appropriate. There is no mass effect seen. Old infarcts are
seen in
bilateral cerebellar hemispheres. Multiple scattered T2/FLAIR
high-signal
foci are seen in bilateral periventricular white matter
consistent with small
vessel ischemic disease. The left vertebral artery flow void is
not well
appreciated. Rest of the major arterial flow voids appear
preserved.
MRA HEAD: The distal left vertebral artery flow signal is not
visualized
which may represent vertebral arterial occlusion. Bilateral
intracranial
internal carotid arteries, the right vertebral artery, basilar
artery and
their major branches are patent with no evidence of stenosis,
occlusion or
aneurysm formation.
MRA NECK: Limited MRI study of the neck was obtained as contrast
could not be
administered. Bilateral common carotid arteries and vertebral
artery flow
voids in the neck appear normal with no evidence of stenosis or
occlusion.
There appears to be moderate stenosis of the left internal
carotid artery just
beyond the bifurcation.
IMPRESSION:
1. Acute infarct left PCA territory.
2. Chronic infarcts in bilateral cerebellar hemispheres.
3. Non-visualized flow signal in distal left vertebral artery
may represent a
congenital variation/occlusion. This may be confirmed on a CTA.
4. Moderate stenosis of the left internal carotid artery just
beyond the
bifurcation with restoration of flow signal in the distal ICA.
TTE: The left atrium is mildly dilated. The left atrium is
elongated. No atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale is
seen by 2D, color Doppler or saline contrast. There is mild
symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size
and global systolic function (LVEF>55%). Right ventricular
chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve
leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not
present. Moderate (2+) aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral
valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Mild (1+) mitral
regurgitation is seen. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic
pressure is normal. There is no pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: No cardiac source of embolism identified. Preserved
global and regional biventricular systolic function. Moderate
aortic regurgitation.
Compared with the prior study dated ___ (images reviewed),
the degree of aortic regurgitation has worsened.
CT Head:
1. No evidence of acute hemorrhage or vascular territorial
infarct.
2. Prominent extraaxial spaces, including within the posterior
fossa on the
right. While this could be age related atrophy changes, the
location is
unusual and could possibly represent an arachnoid cyst.
Importantly, it is
unchanged from the ___ and ___ CT of the
head.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ presented to ___ ED after 60 minutes right sided
weakness. When she had arrived in the ED, her symptoms had
resolved. She had a noncon head ct which was non-revealing in
the ED. She was admitted to ___ for stroke/tia workup.
Examination the following day was difficult ___ to her baseline
dementia, deafness, and language barrier. Examination was
grossly normal and the family noted that she was "at baseline."
___ worked with the patient and she ambulated well with a walker.
An echo was performed looking for sources of cardiac embolus. It
was negative. Next, an MRI was performed which showed an acute
left PCA infarct. The patient was recently placed on Pradaxa for
chronic afib. Since she had a stroke on pradaxa and she had been
stroke free on coumadin that a switch to coumadin would be more
prudent. The patient was restarted on her former dose of
coumadin with a pradaxa bridge. She was discharged after 2 days
of pradaxa/coumadin therapy with follow up in two days with her
PCP for INR monitoring.

Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted with an epidsode of right sided weakness. You
were later found to have a stroke. You were on a blood thinner
called pradaxa. This medication was designed to prevent strokes
in people who have atrial fibrillation. Since you had a stroke
on pradaxa we will be switching to you to coumadin. Dr. ___ is
aware of this change. It is important that you see him on ___
for inr monitoring. Physical therapy has cleared you to go home.
It is important you take your coumadin at 4pm everyday.
We have made the following changes to your medications:
-Stopped pradaxa
-Started coumadin 3mg

MICROBIOLOGY:
___ CSF - pending
___ Stool C. difficile DNA amplification - negative
PATHOLOGY
___ CSF - pending
STUDIES:
___ MRI w/ and w/o contrast: 1. No metastatic disease to the
brain. 2. Mild pachymeningeal enhancement. Correlate for
recent lumbar puncture.
___ CXR: No acute cardiopulmonary pathology.
___ Head CT w/o contrast: No acute intracranial pathology. An
MRI with contrast is more sensitive for evaluating metastatic
disease.
___ T and L-spine X-ray: Degenerative changes particularly in
the thoracolumbar junction. Mild anterior wedging of T12 which
may be old however clinical correlation is suggested. MR is
more sensitive for the detection of metastases or acuity of
fracture.
___ EKG: Artifact is present. Sinus rhythm. Non-specific ST-T
wave changes
Brief Hospital Course:
# Hypercalcemic Crisis: That patient presented with a corrected
calcium level (Alb 4.6) of 12.78 with mental status changes and
dehydration. On the first day of admission, her calcium level
corrected nicely with aggresive rehydration with normal saline,
and her mental status subsequently returned to baseline.
Regarding the etiology of her hypercalcemia, there was concern
of malignancy/metastasis given her history of breast cancer.
Her condition could also be consistent with Milk-Alkali syndrome
given the patient's history of taking Tums, low phosphate and
metabolic alkalosis with a urine anion gap. Work-up was
significant for low PTH, normal TSH, normal VitD level, negative
basic serium toxicology screen, normal SPEP and UPEP. A brain
MRI revealed no evidence of metastasis however it did show
enhancement concerning for possible carcinomatous meningitis. An
LP was recommended which was performed and fluid was sent for
cytology and flow cytometry (both pending at time of discharge).
# Lower extremity weakness: The patient presented with lower
extremity weakness, and her Thoracic/Lumbar-spine X-ray showed
wedging of T12 of unclear chronicity. However, she remained
without weakness on motor exam with likely etiology due to
hypokalemia. Physical therapy was consulted and recommended
that she be discharged home with services. She should have a
bone mineral density study as an outpatient.
# Altered mental status: The patient presented with altered
mental status and agitation which was significantly different
from her baseline. It was likely secondary to toxic metabolic
encephalopathy secondary to hypercalcemia given that her mental
status returned to baseline with correction of her hypercalcium.
Neurology was consulted, and work-up was significant for a
negative basic serum toxicology screen and lack of brain
metastases on MRI. LP was performed with cytology and flow
cytometry pending at time of discharge.
# Acute Kidney Injury: The patient had a creatinine level of 1.8
on admission up from her baseline of 1.0. Etiology was likely
prerenal given her decreased PO intake in the week prior to
admission. Her creatine improved quickly with the administration
of intravenous fluids. Initially her ACE inhibitor was held but
this was restarted prior to discharge given improvement of her
renal function.
# Metabolic alkalosis: The patient was found to be alkalotic on
admission, which could have been due to a contraction alkalosis
or due to possible GI/Kidney losses. This corrected nicely with
the administration of intravenous fluids and electrolyte
repletion.
# Hypokalemia: The patient has a history of chronic low-normal
potassium levels. On admission, her potassium level was 2.3.
Her hydrochlorothiazide was held, and she was repleted
throughout this admission both orally and intravenously. On
discharge, her potassium was stable 3.1-3.6.
# Anemia: On admission, the patient was found to have anemia
with Hct of 32 down from her baseline of high-30s. Guiac of her
stool was negative, and she was monitored for any signs of
bleeding but remained stable. On discharge, her Hct was stable
at 30.
# Breast Cancer: The patient is followed by oncologist Dr. ___
___ at ___. Per report, she had a normal mammogram 6
months ago. During this admission, she was maintained on her
home dose of anastrozole 1 mg Oral daily
# Sterile Pyuria: The patient was found to have sterile pyuria
on urinalysis on admission. The patient did not have any
urinary symptoms throughout the hospitalization.
# Hypertension: The patient has a history of resistant
hypertension. Given her acute kidney injury and electrolyte
imbalances on admission, we held her home lisinopril and HCTZ
with systolic BPs 150-160s. Her home dose of lisinopril was
restarted on ___ when her kidney function returned to
baseline with sBPs 130-140s. HCTZ was not restarted given that
it can contribute to hypercalcemia.
# Hyperlipidemia: The patient was maintained on her home dose of
Simvastatin 10 mg PO DAILY throughout this hospitalization.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
You were admitted to ___ after
you fell off a horse, and were found to have a fracture of your
spine. You were evaluated by both Neurosurgery and Orthopedic
Surgery, who noted that you do not require any emergent surgery
and you do not have an unstable hip fracture. You are recovering
well and are now ready for discharge. Please follow the
instructions below to continue your recovery:
CERVICAL SPINE FRACTURE:
* Please wear the cervical collar around your neck for one month
at all times. You may remove this collar briefly for skin care.
The collar should remain on for showering.
* If you suddenly become dizzy, lightheaded, feeling as if you
are going to pass out, or weakness, go to the nearest Emergency
Room as this could be a sign that you are having impingement of
your spinal cord from the cervical spine fracture.
ACTIVITY:
* Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and
feel you could respond in an emergency.
* Avoid contact sports and/or any activity that may cause injury
to your bones and/or muscles for the next ___ weeks.
* 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 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.
* You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable.
You may climb stairs.
HOW YOU MAY FEEL:
* You may feel weak or "washed out" for a couple of weeks. You
might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you.
* You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping.
You might feel somewhat depressed.
* All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go
away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon.
MEDICATIONS:
* Take all the medicines you were on before the operation just
as you did before, unless you have been told differently.
* Narcotic pain medication can cause constipation therefore you
should take a stool softener twice daily and increase your fluid
and fiber intake if possible.
* Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are very effective in
controlling pain (i.e., Ibuprofen, Motrin, Advil, Aleve,
Naprosyn) but they have their own set of side effects so make
sure your doctor approves.
* If you have any questions about what medicine to take or not
to take, please call your surgeon.
Warm regards,
Your ___ Surgery Team

Brief Hospital Course:
The patient is a ___ woman with a past medical history
significant for COPD, back pain s/p intrathecal Dilaudid pump,
and polypharmacy abuse who presents with worsening SOB and BLE
edema, and on arrival to the floor, with AMS. Because of
respiratory code, she required intubation and was transferred to
the MICU. Her EEG revealed status epilepticus, and she was
started on Keppra. She was transferred back onto the floor
following extubation. Her imaging and most recent EEG suggest
PRES, possibly secondary to hypertension. On return to the
floor, her AMS resolved likely ___ better BP control for PRES,
waning post-ictal state, and decreased Dilaudid dose.
#AMS: On the floor, she was somnolent but arousable. She was
given 0.24 MG Narcan x2 and was somewhat more arousable. Of
note, she has a Dilaudid intrathecal pump for back pain, and per
her son, she has a significant drug abuse history and has
experienced 50+ episodes such as these over the past ___ years
thought to be drug-induced. Her initial medical work-up was
negative, except for her UCx from ___. Per CT, she has a new
subacute stroke and findings suggestive of PRES. Her EEG also
showed bilateral parietal discharge suggestive of PRES. MRI
confirmed PRES. Chronic Pain Servce decreased her intrathecal
dose by 10%. For PRES, her goal SBP was <140, which she met on
her home Lisinopril. Her AMS resolved likely ___ better BP
control for PRES, waning post-ictal state, UTI treatment, and
decreased Dilaudid dose.
#Seizure disorder: The patient's EEG showed status epilepticus.
She was given IV Ativan 2 MG and started on Keppra, currently
1500 MG BID. Given her significant drug abuse history, her
seizures may be drug-induced, e.g., benzodiazepine withdrawal,
or could be related to PRES. On D/C, she will continue Keppra
and follow-up with Neuro.
#UTI: On admission, she reported dysuria. Her UA was
unremarkable, but UCx from ___ grew out Enterococcus. Her UTI
may have contributed to her AMS. She was started on IV
Ampicillin and transitioned to PO Amoxicillin for complicated
UTI. Her last day of antibiotics will be ___.
#HTN: Her home Lisinopril was continued.
#IDDM: Her FSBGs were relatively well-controlled on ISS and
diabetic diet.
#COPD exacerbation: Based on the Pulmonary indices on her
ventilator in the MICU, COPD exacerbation was considered
unlikely. Her Prednisone and Azithromycin (which she refused)
were D/C'ed.
#Volume overload: On admission, she was given IV Lasix x2 and
did not require any additional doses.
#Hypernatremia: At one point, she was hypernatremic to 147. Her
Na normalized following 3L D5W administration for 3L free water
deficit.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
1. Given her PRES, her goal SBP is <140, which she met on her
home Lisinopril.
2. For her seizure disorder, she will be D/C'ed on Keppra 1500
MG BID and follow-up with Neuro.
3. For her UTI, she will continue Amoxicillin for 3 more days
(LAST DAY ___.
4. Her AMS was likely related to her significant polypharmacy
and narcotic use. Given her intrathecal Dilaudid pump, please
limit narcotics.

hepatocellular pattern of injury on LFTs (acute elevation of
ALT/AST with more mild increase in bilirubin), which is new
compared to labs from late ___. The RUQ U/S did not show CBD
dilation concerning for choledocholithiasis/cholangitis, portal
vein thrombosis, or changes in the visible portions of the
pancreas. Abdominal CT showed gallstones and inflammation
around his pancreas. Given that his lipase was elevated to 450
and he had CT changes it was felt that he had acute pancreatitis
attributed to gallstone disease. Given his other chronic
medical issues and lack of acute cholecystitis, the general
surgery consultants felt that he did not have an operation at
this time but that he can be seen in surgical clinic to discuss
cholecysectomy to avoid future episodes of gallstone
pancreatitis. He was NPO, received IVF and then resumed a
regular diet which he tolerated with the absence of abdominal
pain before discharge. He does have mild transaminitis and BIlI
of 2.5 on discharge. Serologies show immune to HBV status,
negative anti-mitochondrial and ___. Depakote was stopped
because of transaminitis with consultation by neurology.
[]HCV VL PENDING
.
#ENCEPHALOPATHY NOS: Patient with reduced attention and
orientation on exam today - not clear if worse today compared to
when evaluted in ED although at that time noted to be AOx2.
Medication side effect considered as changes started soon after
initiation of keppra. Alternative etiologies include subclinical
seizure, recurrence of CNS lymphoma, infectious, hepatic
encephalopathy, or CVA. Recent head CT without obvious evidence
of CNS lymphoma or large territory CVA. I discussed EEG
findings ___ neurology who advised continuing him only on
Keppra 1000mg BID and stopping depakote because of his
transaminitis.
EEG showed expected changes including encephalopathy and
background slowing
"This is an abnormal continuous ICU monitoring study because of
both a diffuse encephalopathy manifest by background slowing
into the mid to
upper theta bandwidth and focal slowing over the left posterior
quadrant
strongly that is suggestive of a structural abnormality. There
were also
isolated interictal epileptic transients from the left posterior
quadrant.
There also was asymmetric spindle formation with relative
suppression in the
left parietal region suggesting disruption of thalamo-cortical
projections in
that area." RPR NEGATIVE
#SEIZURE DISORDER: History of seizure disorder, recent
breakthrough seizure on depakote thought to be due to long-term
effect of HIV and radiotherapy rather than recurrence of
lymphoma or infection. Continued only on keppra at discharge.
Neuro consulted as above.
.
#HIV: Appears to be well controlled on HAART. I spoke with
pharmacy and his HIV provider, Dr. ___ at ___ and
kept him on atazanavir, ritonavir, truvada
#CHRONIC RENAL DISEASE: Creatinine ranging from 1.4-1.7 and
improved ___ hydration with creat of 1.0 on ___
.
#? HYPERTENSION: Appears to have been started on labetalol and
amlodipine while at Radius. Will hold for now as appears
controlled of anti-hypertensives thus he is not continued on
these agents at discharge but these can be resumed if needed.

STUDIES:
___ CTA HEAD/NECK:
IMPRESSION:
1. No acute hemorrhage or evidence of acute major vascular
territorial infarction on non-contrast head CT. Motion-limited
CT perfusion study demonstrates no clear evidence for a large
area of acute ischemia or acute infarction. MRI would be more
sensitive for excluding an acute infarction, if clinically
warranted.
2. No evidence of arterial occlusion in the head and neck.
Moderate calcified plaque at the origin of the right internal
carotid artery with mild, less than 40% stenosis.
3. Unchanged moderate area of encephalomalacia in the left
parietal lobe. Unchanged extensive supratentorial white matter
hypodensities. These findings could be related to prior
infarction and chronic small vessel ischemic disease,
respectively, but they could also be related to the patient's
known central nervous system lymphoma and post-treatment
changes. Comparison with prior MRIs is needed for better
interpretation. MRI could be obtained for assessing the status
of the patient's lymphoma, if clinically indicated.
4. Moderate cerebral atrophy, unexpected for age.
5. Diffusely mottled bones, particularly in the calvarium, in
part related to demineralization, but lymphomatous involvement
cannot be excluded.
6. Left greater than right mastoid air cell opacification
___ CXR:
FINDINGS:
Cardiac, mediastinal and hilar contours are normal. The
pulmonary vascularity is normal. Lungs are clear without focal
consolidation. No pleural effusion or pneumothorax is present.
No acute osseous abnormality seen.
IMPRESSION:
No acute cardiopulmonary process
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with HIV with undetectable VL and normal CD4, h/o CNS
lymphoma s/p chemo-radiation who presents with brief episode of
left arm tingling and numbness most likely secondary to
self-limited extrinsic peripheral nerve compression from arm
positioning.
ACUTE ISSUES:
# Left Arm Tingling: Resolved, likely due to brief extrinsic
compression from arm hanging over armrest of wheelchair. Given
this neurologic chief complaint and his complicated history,
code stroke was called in the ED though subsequent neurological
evaluation revealed that his neuro deficits were stable and at
his baseline. CTA head/neck imaging without acute changes in
brain but did note a mottled appearance of calvarium bone which
raised question of lymphomatous involvement. No evidence of
seizure activity around the time of this episode. He remained
without any changes in his neurological status during his stay.
MRI will be ordered as outpatient to further evaluate the
mottled bone appearance. Scheduled for Neurology follow-up as
well.
# Leukocytosis: Self-resolved, lymphocyte-predominant on
admission. Unclear cause. No PNA on CXR and UA was clean. This
was monitored without recurrence or clinical correlation.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
# Hyperbilirubinemia: Has baseline elevation, likely secondary
to his HAART meds. His acute rise in bilirubin and transaminases
from last admission had resolved with resolution of his
gallstone pancreatitis. AP elevation could also be related to
bone abnormalities on CT head as above, unlikely biliary source.
MRI head as above, follow LFTs as outpatient.
# HIV on HAART - diagnosed in ___. CD4 940 on ___, viral
load undetectable ___.
- RiTONAvir 100 mg PO DAILY

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure caring for you during your hospitalization.
You were admitted on ___ after having an episode of numbness
and tingling in your left arm. You underwent an evaluation in
the hospital including physical exams, labs, and imaging studies
of your head.
Based on these studies, this episode was most likely due to
pinching the nerve in your arm as it was hanging over the
wheelchair rather than to any worrisome cause in the brain.
However, it is still important for you to undergo a repeat MRI
scan of your brain to be sure that there is no evidence of
recent changes.
Please be sure to follow-up with your PCP and with ___.
*** Please call ___ to make an appointment for an MRI
of the brain within the next ___ weeks ***

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ with metastatic colon cancer (KRAS wild type,
BRAF
negative, elevated CEA, MSI stable) with rising CEA, associated
with nausea which has progressed on ___, oxali, irinotecan, ___,
and cetuximab based therapies including Y90 treatments to the
liver, and most recently completed WBRT ___, now presenting with
worsening of shortness of breath and ascites.
#Shortness of breath/hypoxia: Pt has known multiple pulmonary
nodules, which are reconfirmed with some atelectasis on CXR ___.
These mets are likely restricting breathing, with possible
contribution from pt's significantly distended liver and
ascites. Doubt PNA, as pt is afebrile, cough is chronic and not
productive. Leukocytosis likely ___ to neulasta and advancing
cancer. Pt got vanc/zosyn in ED but will hold off for now. Low
suspicion for PE as pt is not tachycardic or hypotensive, but
given worsening b/l ___ swelling, got LENIS ___, which are
negative. CT Torso ___ shows many pulmonary mets, some
w/hemorrhage, and innumerable hepatic metastases w/ associated
upper retroperitoneal and porta hepatis LAD, grossly similar to
the recent MRI and markedly progressed versus ___. Brain MRI
___ notable for osseous mets as below. ___ discussion with
patient and her sisters, with patient deciding that she would
like to go home with ___. Continuing nebs in house. Patient will
likely need to be discharged on 2L O2.
- DC with albuterol inhaler
#Ascites: CXR ___ suggests small pleural effusions w/
atelectasis vs PNA as above, but ED felt that on U/S this was
actually ascites displacing the liver upwards, and causing
atelectasis. BNP 332. LFTs are elevated compared to prior with
AP 727 from 500s in ___, and ALT 54 from 31. Tbili largely
stable, but at 4.3. Suspect malignant ascies, as pt with known
significant metastases to the liver and ovary. Doubt SBP as no
abdominal pain, fevers, AMS, and leukocytosis likely ___ recent
neulasta. As above, pt got Abx in ED, but no para was done. U/S
on floor on arrival did not reveal clear loculated pocket safe
to tap. ___ guided paracentesis done on ___ (drained 1.85L)
significant for SAAG 1.7, c/w malignant ascites. PMN 53%,
absolute 90, not suggestive of SBP. Patient would like to stop
dexamethasone, given that it is worsening her fluid retention,
but agrees to keep it on for now at 4 mg PO qd given worsening
nausea today. ___ guided paracentesis with pleurx catheter
placement ___, drained 1000 cc on ___ prior to discharge.
#Leukocytosis: WBC elevated >45 o ___, likely ___ neulasta use
on ___ and also from advancing cancer. Less likely PNA as pt is
afebrile, w/chronic dry cough reported, not observed on exam
today. Low concern for SBP as above. Other infectious causes
less likely given absence of other sx including dysuria,
vomiting/diarrhea. Sepsis unlikely given absence of hypotension
and tachycardia, and elevated lactated likely ___ to impaired
clearance w/liver dysfunction. No antibiotic therapy was
pursued.
#Worsening transaminitis/bilirubinemia: This is likely ___ to
liver failure due to progressive metastases, and potential
contribution from recent tx with Lonsurf. RUQU/S w/Doppler ___
confirms significant hepatic mets, now also showing reduced
portal vein flow. CT torso ___ shows worsening hepatic mets and
retroperitoneal and porta hepatis LAD as above. GOC of
discussion with patient and her sister as below on ___ with
patient endorsing desire to go home with ___ for now. Will
continue to trend LFTs during admission.
#Metastatic colon cancer: as above, progressed despite multiple
therapies. Pt was last seen at end of ___ by Dr. ___ at ___. Pt
was being considered for clinical trial at ___, but at that
point she was on dexamethasone. Current Treatment Plan: Lonsurf
15mg/6.14mg tablet. Take 4 tablets twice daily within 1 hour of
a
meal D1-5 and D8-12 every 28 days. ___ was C1D8 and she
received
neulasta ___. RUQU/S ___ redemonstrated significant hepatic
mets, and now significant for reduced portal vein flow. CEA up
___ from 15000s in ___. CT torso ___ shows numerous
pulmonary mets some w/ hemorrhage and innumerable hepatic mets
and LA. Brain MRI ___ notable for new L frontoparietal osseous
metastasis. Per ___ discussion with patient and her sisters on
___, pt would like to go home with ___. After discussion with
attending ___, code status was changed to DNR/DNI
#Fluid retention: Pt was on 4mg dex daily, but was concerned
that it could be contributing to fluid retention and wanted to
stop it, however, she was also nauseous, so we decided continue
dex 4 mg daily for now as above. LENIS ___ negative for DVT as
above. RUQU/S ___ redemonstrated significant hepatic mets, and
now significant for reduced portal vein flow. Workup/management
for ascites as above.
#Hypothyroidism: Continue home levothyroxine in house.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted for shortness of breath and stomach bloating.
During your hospital stay we conducted a number of tests to rule
out things such as a lung infection, clots in your lungs, or an
infection in your stomach that could have contributed to your
shortness of breath. Unfortunately, we found that your cancer is
getting worse. You were found to have fluid in your stomach
("ascites") which was drained. This fluid accumulated as a
result of your colon cancer. You were also continued on steroids
to help with nausea and inflammation. A catheter was placed to
drain any further fluid in order to improve your comfort.
Thank you for allowing us to be part of your care,
Your ___ Team

Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the hospital because you had imaging of
your back that showed a compression fracture with concern for
compression of your spinal cord. You did not have any symptoms
concerning for cord compression. You were seen by orthopedic
surgery. Because you would prefer not to have surgery at this
time, they recommended the use of a brace to stabilize your
spine.
You need to wear the brace any time you are sitting up,
including driving, or walking around. You do not need to wear
the brace if you are lying in bed or reclining.
You will follow up with orthopedic surgery.
It was a pleasure taking care of you during your stay in the
hospital.

History of Present Illness:
HISTORY OF THE PRESENTING ILLNESS:
___ with a history of IgG kappa MGUS, osteoporosis,
hyperparathyroidism, ___ disease, and previous T12
compression fracture presenting to the emergency department with
new bowel incontinence.
Patient has long history of low back pain complicated with
previous compression fractures. Previously has seen spinal and
neurology doctors and ___ had multiple MRIs with positive
findings however she has not had any surgical intervention.
This weekend she was told to be on look out for worsening
symptoms by 1 of her neurologist who is concerned that she has
worsening cord compression. Over the weekend had diarrheal
illness. On morning of admission around 4:00 she was getting
ready to shower. Felt urge to go to the bathroom. Decided to try
to shower first because she was ready. In the shower she had a
bowel movement. She called her neurologist and she was referred
into the ED. Additionally patient states that when she tries to
urinate and sometimes has difficulty urinating. However she
denies any leg weakness, leg numbness, leg tingling, or any
decreased sensation while wiping. Patient also denies fevers or
chills.
In the ED, initial vitals were: 97.9 84 133/102 16 100% RA
PVR showed 240 cc.
- Exam notable for: intact neurological exam without signs of
myelopathy
- Labs notable for:
+ Chem 10: Na 132, K 4.2, Cl 99, HCO3 21, BUN 7, Creat 0.7
+ CBC: WBC 7.1, H/H: 11.4/33.5, Plt 313
+ Urine showed: Mod Leuk, few bacteria, 3 WBC, 2 RBC, 3 Epi.
- Imaging was notable for: Severe compression fracture of T12
appears chronic. Protrusion of the posterior vertebral body
results in moderate spinal canal narrowing at this level without
effacement of the spinal cord. There is severe neural foraminal
narrowing on the right at L5-S1. There is moderate to severe
neural foraminal narrowing on the left at L3-4. There is
moderate to severe neural foraminal narrowing at T12-L1 and L1-2
on the left although evaluation is limited by motion
- Neurosurgery was consulted who stated: MRI shows grossly
stable fracture with retropulsion into the canal, effacement of
the spinal cord without evidence of signal change within the
cord. It also shows stable degenerative changes and
neuroforaminal stenosis worst at L5-S1 on the right.
Patient can follow up with her outpatient providers for ongoing
management. There is no role for emergent Neurosurgical
intervention. If she chooses she can follow up with Dr. ___
in Spine clinic.
- Patient was given: No meds
Transfer vitals: 97.9 77 164/87 16 98% RA
Upon arrival to the floor, patient reports no pain and feels
very well. She has not had further episodes of bowel
incontinence.

strength on exam throughout hospitalization. Neurosurgery saw
the patient on ___ and recommended no acute surgical
intervention warranted based on a wet read of the MRI. Ortho
then saw patient on ___ (nsgy does not evaluate sacral spine)
and felt that no immediate surgical intervention warranted.
Overall, it was felt that the etiology of her bowel incontinence
x1 appears to be secondary to loose stool or infectious etiology
of diarrheal (though WBC wnl, thus ? viral) versus concerning
cord compression (less likely). She had few ___ per day)

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
You were hospitalized due to symptoms of resulting from a
TRANSIENT ISCHEMIC ATTACK (TIA), a condition where a blood
vessel providing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is
temporarily blocked. 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.
TIA can have many different causes, so we assessed you for
medical conditions that might raise your risk of having a stroke
in the future. In order to prevent future strokes, we plan to
modify those risk factors. Your risk factors are:
high blood pressure
carotid artery disease
diabetes
We are changing your medications as follows:
Please increase atorvastatin to 80mg (if not already at that
dose).
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

Cranialization of sinus w/temporal muscle
History of Present Illness:
___ year old male with a history of TBI ___ years ago s/p
craniectomy, now presenting as a transfer from OSH for
neurosurgery evaluation for forehead swelling with purulent
drainage, found to have a complex extradural fluid collection.
Patient notes that he has had a similar swelling in ___
which self resolved after 1 week. Patient reports that the
swelling returned 3 days ago, and that he developed pus-like
drainage 1 day prior. Patient is otherwise asymptomatic and in
his usual state of health. He explicitly denies fevers, vision
changes, headaches.
In the ED initial vitals were:98.8 80 107/64 14 99%
- Labs were not performed in the ED, however they were within
normal limits at the OSH. CT head showed a 5mm extradural
complex fluid collection. He was seen by neurosurgery who felt
that they could not determine the chronicity of the collection
with only a single image, and therefore felt that it would be
reasonable to admit to medicine for superficial cellulitis.
- Patient was given vanc/zosyn at the outside hospital.

Pertinent Results:
MRI of HEAD: ___
IMPRESSION:
Right frontal craniotomy with postoperative changes as described
above. There is dural thickening and enhancement underlying the
surgical site. This may be this dural postoperative change.
However, in the setting of a history of infection, opacification
of an adjacent right frontal sinus air cell, and a defect in the
posterior wall of the sinus, these findings are worrisome for
superimposed infection.
HEAD CT ___:
S/p right craniectomy at the site of prior craniotomy, with
blood at the
craniectomy site which does not exert mass effect on the brain
parenchyma. No parenchymal hemorrhage or edema.
CT of SINUS: ___
IMPRESSION:
Extensive disease of the left sphenoid sinus soft-tissue changes
as noted above with dehiscence of the bone covering left foramen
Rotundum as noted above.
CXR for line placment ___. Malpositioned right PICC line which likely enters right IJ.
Requires
repositioning.
2. No evidence of acute cardiopulmonary process.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year old gentleman with a remote history of
TBI ___ years ago s/p craniectomy at the time who presented to
___ on ___ as a transfer from OSH for neurosurgical
evaluation of forehead swelling with purulent drainage and 5mm
extradural complex fluid collection found on CT from OSH,
initially thought to be concerning for superficial cellulitis
and possibly an underlying abscess and requiring further work-up
including neurosurgical evaluation.
Active Issues:
#Soft tissue abscess vs pre-septal cellulitis vs osteomyelitis:
Patient describes a few days of swelling of right supraorbital
tissues with subsequent drainage of yellow fluid. No draining
was noted on exam (though scant yellow drainage seen on tissue)
and he was non-toxic and without leukocytosis since admission.
He reports that, prior to ___ when he experienced similar
symptoms that spontaneously resolved within a week, he had never
had any issues s/p craniectomy. Wound cultures from outside
hospital showed mixed GPCs and sparse staph aureus growth, no
GNRs. The differential included preseptal cellulitis
(purulent), soft-tissue abscess, cyst extruding non-purulent
serous or caseous material. There was little concern for
orbital or CNS infection given that he had no focal neurological
findings. An MRI was performed which indicated some marrow
edema in the area raising concern for osteomyelitis and the
decision was made to take his to the operating room on ___ for
right bone flap removal and wash-out. Infectious disease also
became involved on ___ and recommended narrowing antibiotics to
vancomycin until intra-op wound cultures showed sensitivities.
Chronic Issues:
#Tobacco use: He has smoked a ___ ppd since being a teenager.
While admitted he was provided with a 14 mg nicotine transdermal
patch.
___ Course:
On ___, patient was taken to the OR with neurosurgery for R
craniectomy and washout and debridement of R eyebrow. There were
no complications intraoperatively. Cultures were sent from his
wound. A subgaleal drain was placed and his incision was closed
with sutures and staples. He was extubated and transferred to
the PACU for further managment. On post operative examination,
patient was neurologically intact and post op head CT showed
post op changes. ID recommendations were to start patient on
vancomycin/cefepime/ampicilin.
On ___, patient remained intact. ENT evaluated the patient and
recommended a CT fusion of the sinus and bactroban ointment for
his nares. ID also recommended changing his antibiotics to
vancomycin and zoysn after cultures from the OR revealed 2+ GPC,
GPR, GNR and polys. A vancomycin trough was ordered for later in
the day. His subgaleal drain was removed and stitch was placed.
On ___, the infectious disease recommended continuing the
vanc/zosyn IV. The patient remained neurologically and
hemodynamically intact and was transferred to floor in stable
condition.
On ___, labs were obtained, his ESR was 64, and CRP was 95.9.
The vancomycin trough was 9.7, and his vancomycin was increased

that she can come to the hospital so that her mother will visit
her there. (Her mother is involved in her care at baseline.)
When her mother comes to visit her she insists that she wants to
go home. When she can't go home this results in escalating

IMPRESSION: Two double A batteries are seen in the distal
esophagus
.
EGD ___:
Impression: One AA battery was seen in the mid/distal esophagus.
There was no evidence of caustic or other mucosal injury.
Another AA battery was seen in the stomach. Again there was no
evidence of caustic or other mucosal injury.
(foreign body removal)
After removal of both batteries, the scope was reintroduced and
advanced to the third part of the duodenum. Careful inspection
did not reveal any mucosal injury. Otherwise normal EGD to third
part of the duodenum
Recommendations: Routine post-anesthesia care. No follow-up
needed. Please page GI fellow with any issues or questions.

Brief Hospital Course:
The patient is a ___ year old female with history of mental
retardation, OCD, pervasive developmental disorder h/o bowel
obstruction, h/o swalling foreign body objects who presents
after swallowing two AA batteries.
.
#foreign body ingestion: Pt required removal of these 2
batteries as she was at risk of developing an esophageal burn,
given persistence in the esophagus. Abdominal imaging in the ___
confirmed the presence of batteries in the distal esophagus. GI
was consulted and pt was closely monitored on a 1:1 sitter to
ensure that she does not swallow other foreign objects. Pt was
made NPO and taken to the EGD suite where endoscopy did not find
any evidence of mucosal or foreign body induced injury; the 2
batteries were successfully retrieved. Upon rearrival to the
floor, pt's diet was advanced to regular without complications.
She did not have any pain or nausea. Per report, pt tends to
swallow foreign objects in order to have her mother (who is
involved in her care) come to visit her in the hospital. Urine
HCG negative.
.
#non-gap metabolic acidosis-Pt presented with a bicarb of 18,
non-gap acidosis. In terms of etiology, no evidence for
diarrhea. This could be due to IV fluid resuscitation with
normal saline. Chemistry panel was repeated and bicarb was 19
upon recheck. There was no evidence of fever, infection. AA
batteries are alkaline in nature which would not cause acidosis.
Given that pt was asymptomatic and was tolerating a diet, pain
free, she was discharged to her group home with instructions to
have a repeat chemistry panel checked at her PCP's on ___.
.
#Psych/Obsessive compulsive disorder/mental retardation-After
home medication list was obtained, pt was continued on her home
doses of paxil, buspirone, risperdol, lamictal, clonidine prn
and ativan prn. Pt was redirectable during admission.

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is an ___ female with ___ Afib with RVR (on
metoprolol, apixaban, and amiodarone), HTN, CKD, dementia, and
hypothyroidism transferred at family request from ___
in ___ for tachycardia and dyspnea with labs and imaging
consistent with acute on chronic HFrEF (EF 47%), likely due to
progression of tachyarrhythmia-induced cardiomyopathy (EF now
19%) due to persistent Afib w/ RVR. On ___, following
TEE/cardioversion, pt converted from afib with RVR to sinus
bradycardia. Converted back to AF on ___. She was loaded with
amiodarone for 6 days prior to repeat cardioversion ___, again
to sinus bradycardia, with subsequent pacemaker implantation
___.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
[ ] Please perform frequent dressing checks at site of pacemaker
implantation (left upper chest wall). If recurrent bleeding or
oozing, consider holding apixaban for ___ days.
[ ] LVEF now 19%. Would recommend ongoing medication
optimization.
[ ] At rehab, we would strongly recommend daily standing weights
and notifying the MD on call if weight changes by 3 pounds in
either direction.
[ ] We would also recommend daily pulse rate checks and if
elevated the MD should be notified as this may indicate
recurrent atrial fibrillation.
[ ] Please also monitor for signs of heart failure daily --this
should include daily weights, lung auscultation for rales,
jugular venous distention, and lower extremity edema.
Furthermore, daily pulse oximeter should be checked to ensure
patient is not becoming hypoxic.
[ ] Once renal function and creatinine normalized, consider
resuming diuresis and adjust dose accordingly (presumed home
euvolemic dose of PO Lasix 40-60 mg daily). If planning to
resume diuresis, would also monitor and replete electrolytes
frequently.
[ ] With regard to her amiodarone, she should remain on 200mg
BID for 2 weeks through ___, then the dose should be reduced to
200mg daily going forward.
[ ] Consider restarting lisinopril if renal function improves
and blood pressure tolerates
Long term considerations (for cardiology/PCP follow up):
[ ] Consider restarting metoprolol ___ LV dysfunction and
history of atrial fibrillation
[ ] 4 mm left upper lobe pulmonary nodule. Per ___
criteria, for incidentally detected single solid pulmonary
nodule smaller than 6 mm, no CT follow-up is recommended in a
low-risk patient, and an optional CT in 12 months is recommended
in a high-risk patient.
[ ] Ongoing evaluation for MitraClip ___ moderate MR on our
TTE. To be followed up as an outpatient with Dr. ___.
ACUTE ISSUES
=============
#Atrial Fibrillation with RVR
#Sick sinus syndrome
Patient with recent history of atrial fibrillation requiring
cardioversion at ___ in ___ and subsequently
converted back into atrial fibrillation in the following weeks.
Presented with atrial fibrillation with rates 120s-130s. Despite
diuresis, A fib with RVR persisted. ___ the relatively rapid
progression of her tachyarrhythmia-induced cardiomyopathy, as
demonstrated on TTE on ___, successful TEE/cardioversion was
performed on ___. Afterward, patient continued to have
asymptomatic sinus bradycardia in the ___. Metoprolol was held.
Her amiodarone and apixaban were continued. Unfortunately, on
___ she went back into atrial fibrillation with rates in the
110s. A repeat cardioversion was performed on ___ which was
again complicated by asymptomatic sinus bradycardia with HR
___. We withheld metoprolol and amiodarone; a pacemaker was
implanted ___. We restarted her apixaban 2.5 BID and amiodarone
200 mg BID which will be continued through ___ before
decreasing to to a dose of 200 mg daily indefinitely.
# Acute on chronic HFrEF (47% EF previously, EF now 19%)
Patient presented with tachypnea and tachycardia, BNP 24,000 and
bilateral pleural effusions consistent with CHF exacerbation.
She underwent TTE On ___ that showed marked progression of
cardiomyopathy with LVEF 19%, severe global LV, systolic
dysfunction, moderate RV, global systolic dysfunction (before
47%), and 2+ MR. ___ her atrial fibrillation with rapid
ventricular rate, we suspect that her worsening EF is likely
secondary to tachycardia induced cardiomyopathy. Patient was
diuresed with IV Lasix and transitioned to PO, remaining
euvolemic remainder of admission. She could not tolerate
neurohormonal blockade with metoprolol ___ her bradycardia
(see below). At rehab, we would strongly recommend daily
standing weights and notifying the MD on call if weight changes
by 3 pounds in either direction. We would also recommend daily
pulse rate checks and if elevated the MD should be notified as
this may indicate recurrent atrial fibrillation. Please also
monitor for signs of heart failure daily -- this should include
lung auscultation for rales, jugular venous distention, and
lower extremity edema. Furthermore, daily pulse oximeter should
be checked to ensure patient is not becoming hypoxic. She was
euvolemic at time of discharge; lisinopril and diuretics
continued to be withheld due to elevated creatinine
(downtrending).
# Moderate mitral regurgitation
At ___, family discussed the option of Mitral Clip with
the cardiologists. Patient was evaluated by our structural heart
team who recommended she follow up as an outpatient for further
consideration. If they are still interested in this
intervention, please call the structural heart clinic at
___ to schedule a follow up appointment with Dr. ___.
#Hypoactive delirium
History of hypoactive delirium in the setting of decreased
neurocognitive reserve with advanced dementia. Per family's
report, outpatient sleep physician has attributed this delirium
to sleep apnea. Patient was intermittently unresponsive
throughout her admission without symptoms of pneumonia or UTI;
this was presumed to be due to baseline dementia and hypoactive
delirium.
CHRONIC/STABLE ISSUES:
======================
#Hypothyroidism
- Continued home levothyroxine
#Rhematoid Arthritis
- Continued home methylprednisolone
- Continued home Hydroxychloroquine
- Held home leflunomide as nonforumlary. Can be restarted as

Chief Complaint:
subacute confusion and unsteady gait
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
Ms. ___ is a ___ old right-handed woman with a
history
of CAD s/p LAD stents x2 (___), chronic angina, HLD, COPD,
iron deficiency anemia getting iron infusions and DMII on an
insulin pump who presents with subacute confusion and unsteady
gait.
Patient reports that approximately 1 month ago, she began having
falls. These were characterized by her legs giving out beneath
her. One time, she fell down 12 stairs secondary to weakness
the
legs and hit her back but not her head. There are a few other
falls that she does not recall the exact circumstances. She has
never used any sort of walking aid, but recently she has needed
to hold onto walls with walking. Over the past week, she has
noticed that her gait is gotten progressively more unsteady.
There has been no sudden change just a subacute decline.
She also describes that she is more confused over the past
month.
She states, "I am not connecting words or thoughts." She
endorses a feeling of depression secondary to retiring from
nursing, which she had been doing for over ___ years.
Today, she was staying over her daughter's house and there was
an
episode that concerned her daughter for worsening confusion and
so they recommended she go to the emergency room. Patient has
difficulty describing the exact details of the episode and is
different from what the daughter tells me. Patient describes
that this morning, she felt "edgy, anxious." She "did not feel
right." Her daughter told her she was hallucinating but she
does
not remember this.
Getting collateral history from the daughter, she reports that
this morning she heard a sound of glass breaking in the kitchen
and she came downstairs and found a mass in the kitchen. Her
mom
had dropped a coffee pot. She was stumbling around the kitchen
and acting confused. It was dark outside and patient was having
visual hallucinations. She looked at the window and said, "do
see that animal eating that bird?" "Look, there is a lion eating
that bird." Her daughter further describes that she was hearing
voices coming from her grandkids bedroom however her daughter
knew that they were asleep. The patient went to check in the
bedroom to make sure that the kids were sleeping because she
kept
hearing voices. The daughter then called patient's cardiologist
who recommended she present to the emergency room.
The daughter describes two other episodes of confusion over the
past two months. On was about three weeks ago, when she was
talking about her uncle to her mother, the patient thought she
was talking about a cousin. The other time was when the patient
was on the phone with her sister, she began talking about having
upcoming ___ day off but holiday had already passed.
The daughter also describes that she has been recently stumbling
around a lot in the past week. She is also been more irritable
and forgetful recently. She was previously independent and
lives
alone.

MRI SPINE:
1. At C5-C6, minimal retrolisthesis, broad-based posterior
endplate
osteophytes, and thickening of the ligamentum flavum cause
moderate to severe
spinal canal stenosis with spinal cord deformation, but no
evidence for cord
signal abnormalities allowing for motion artifact. There is
also severe right
and moderate to severe left neural foraminal narrowing at C5-C6.
Mild
degenerative changes are present at other cervical levels
without mass effect
on the spinal cord.
2. Normal appearance of the thoracic spinal cord and conus
medullaris.
3. Previously seen T11 vertebral body fracture demonstrates
slightly
increased, less than 10% loss of height without retropulsion or
marrow edema.
4. Previously seen L2 vertebral body fracture demonstrates new,
approximately
40% loss of height, new mild retropulsion with mild spinal canal
narrowing but
no mass effect on the intrathecal nerve roots. Residual marrow
edema is
likely present, with superimposed ___ type 1 discogenic bone
marrow change.
5. Multilevel lumbar degenerative disease with mass effect on
several
traversing and exiting nerve roots, as detailed above. No
significant mass
effect on the intrathecal nerve roots.
MRI BRAIN:
1. Study is moderately degraded by motion.
2. Extensive relatively symmetric bilateral periventricular,
subcortical, and
deep white matter lesions are nonspecific, but correspond to
hypodensities
seen on prior CT scans dating back to ___. The
distribution
suggests chronic microangiopathy as a possible etiology.
3. Within limits of study, no evidence of hemorrhage, mass,
mass effect, or
acute infarction.
4. Grossly patent circle of ___.
5. Approximately 30% narrowing of bilateral internal carotid
artery origins by
NASCET criteria.
6. Left origin vertebral artery not well visualized on current
motion degraded
exam. Otherwise, grossly patent bilateral cervical vertebral
and carotid
arteries as described.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ is a ___ year old woman with a past medical
history significant for diabetes mellitus requiring insulin
pump, CAD x stenting with baseline chronic angina, obesity, and
COPD who presented to the Neurology service with an increased
frequency in falls due to gait imbalance, and hallucinations
with memory issues.
MRI brain showed significant white matter disease/ vascular
disease . EEG was done which was negative for any slowing nor
any epileptiform discharges. Her mental status examination was
tracked and improved over a few days as we discontinued sedating
medications including Percocet and flexeril which we thought was
contributing to her altered mental status given her baseline mri
brain. We noted her mental status to improve once these
medications were discontinued as her MOCA was ___ after these
changes.
In regards to her gait , we imaged the spine with an MRI which
showed significant cervical spine disease with nerve compression
and disc portrusions as well as lumbar spine pathology which
could explain her antalgic gait. We started the patient on
gabapentin to control her nerve pain which we anticipate will
help with her gait as well.
Next, we obtained an echocardiogram given that the patient was
persistently short of breath to see her baseline EF, echo showed
normal EF. ABG was done as well and did not show any co2
retention.
Patient required nebulizers and 02 at times but was stable on
the neurology floor.
Lastly, the patient endorsed significant anxiety and depression
, for which we consulted psychiatry to help with therapy. We
noted that the patient was dependent on Xanax which we want to
also taper off and replace this with different therapy that will
improve her mental status and not cause memory issues.
We also encouraged Trazodone at night for sleep.
Patient required nebulizers and 02 at times but was stable on
the neurology floor.
Lastly, the patient endorsed significant anxiety and depression
, for which we consulted psychiatry to help with therapy and a
taper off xanax. We noted that the patient was dependent on
Xanax which we want to also taper off and replace this with
different therapy that will improve her mental status and not
cause memory issues.
We also encouraged gabapentin for pain and sleep.
Please follow the Xanax taper:
Xanax is generally tapered over several weeks by ___ per week
with close monitoring for withdrawal.
Patient was also discharged so she can attend her feraheme
infusion at the ___.
Transitions of care issues:
1. Please follow up with PCP ___ , he will put you on the
Xanax taper
2. Please take gabapentin for pain and STOP taking
cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) and Percocet
3. Please work with your PCP to find an outpatient therapist
4. A referral to the sleep study was made for you

Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
You were admitted after you were having difficulty with your
memory, walking/balance, and some visual hallucinations for
which you were evaluated on the Neurology service for. You had a
number of tests done to look for causes including MRI brain , MR
spine, and a number of blood tests.
Overall, your brain MRI showed evidence of white matter disease
likely from long standing coronary artery disease and diabetes.
Thankfully no large tumors, bleeds, or strokes were seen. You
also had a number of blood tests including autoimmune testing,
thyroid testing etc. which came back negative. You were also
connected to EEG to make sure you were not having seizures, and
this test came back negative. Next, we suspected based on your
exam that you had spinal disease and we obtained an MRI spine
which showed significant nerve compression and disc bulges in
your neck and lower back which can explain both your pain and
your difficulty walking.
Lastly, we discovered that a lot of your medications probably
were making you very sedated and contributing to your memory
issues given the white matter disease in your brain, as you are
more susceptible to medication side effects.
Your Percocet was switched to gabapentin which is more suitable
for the nerve pain in your neck and back. Psychiatry evaluated
you to help with anxiety and depression and suggested a Xanax
taper which will be in your discharge summary for your PCP to
follow. In addition, they suggested outpatient therapy. Your
echocardiogram did not show a low ejection fraction.
You were discharged home and were able to receive the iron
infusion at the ___ after discharge.
We wish you the best,
Sincerely Your ___ Team

CT abd/pelvis
ABDOMEN:
The liver has a nodular contour with hypertrophy of the left
hepatic lobe, most suggestive of cirrhosis. No focal hepatic
lesion is visualized on this single phase exam. The gallbladder
wall is calcified and contains numerous calcified gallstones.
The intra and extrahepatic bile ducts, pancreas, and adrenal
glands are normal. The spleen is enlarged, measuring up to 18.1
cm. The kidneys enhance symmetrically. The ureters have a
normal course and caliber. The stomach is unremarkable. The
small and large bowel have a normal course
and caliber. Colonic diverticulosis is present without evidence
for
diverticulitis. No retroperitoneal or mesenteric
lymphadenopathy. Splenic and gastric varices are present. The
portal and intra-abdominal systemic vasculature are otherwise
unremarkable. A small to moderate amount of low density ascites
is primarily perihepatic but also tracking along both pericolic
gutters into the pelvis. No abdominal wall hernia,
pneumoperitoneum, or free abdominal fluid. PELVIS: The bladder
and terminal ureters are normal. The uterus and adnexa are
unremarkable. No pelvic side-wall or inguinal lymphadenopathy.
No inguinal hernia. OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: Moderate thoracolumbar
spine degenerative changes are
present. L1 superior endplate deformity is of uncertain
chronicity, probably non-acute. No focal lytic or sclerotic
lesion concerning for malignancy. IMPRESSION: 1. Cirrhosis with
splenomegaly, varices, and small amount ascites. 2.
Diverticulosis without evidence of diverticulitis. 3. Porcelain
gallbladder containing numerous calcified gallstones, which
increases risk for gallbladder carcinoma. Non-emergent surgical
consult is recommended. 4. L1 superior endplate deformity, of
uncertain chronicity.
RUQ U/S
FINDINGS:
The hepatic architecture is nodular in appearance consistent
with the
patient's known cirrhosis. No concerning liver lesion is
identified. No
biliary dilatation is seen and the common duct measures 0.4 cm.
The wall of the gallbladder is calcified consistent with the
patient's known porcelain gallbladder. The pancreas is
unremarkable, but is only partially visualized due to overlying
bowel gas. The spleen is enlarged measuring 17.3 cm. There is
no hydronephrosis on limited views of the kidneys. A trace of
ascites is seen in the right upper quadrant. There is a small
right pleural effusion. DOPPLER EXAMINATION: Color Doppler and
spectral waveform analysis was performed. The main and right
portal veins are patent with hepatopetal flow. Flow within the
left portal vein is difficult to detect likely representing
extremely slow flow. Hepatopetal flow is seen in the SMV and
the splenic vein in the midline. The hepatic veins and IVC are
patent. Appropriate arterial waveforms are seen in the main,
right and left hepatic arteries. IMPRESSION: 1. No biliary
dilatation identified. 2. Nodular hepatic architecture with
splenomegaly and a trace of ascites. 3. Porcelain gallbladder.
4. Patent hepatic vasculature. Flow within the left portal vein
is noted to
be difficult to detect likely representing slow flow.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ y/o female with no significant past medical history
presenting with hematemesis and melena x 3 days. Initial CT scan
in the ED showed evidence of cirrhosis.
# GASTROINTESTINAL BLEED: The initial concern for this patient
was upper GIB secondary to esophageal or gastric varices. The
patient was started on a PPI drip in the emergency department.
Upon arrival to the floor she was started on ceftriaxone and
octreotide and taken to the GI endoscopy suite. EGD demonstrated
3 cords of grade I-II esophageal varices without stigmata, mild
esophagitis, and antrum erythema with few erosions/small healing
ulcer. The duodenal bulb and second part of the duodenum were
normal. The ceftriaxone and octreotide were discontinued after
the EGD. The patient was started on ciprofloxacin x 4 days and
nadolol prior to discharge. H. pylori antibody screen returned
negative. She was also discharge on a BID PO PPI and instructed
to avoid aspirin and NSAIDs.
# CIRRHOSIS/HEPATITIS: Based on the patient's history this is
likely related to alcohol abuse. AST:ALT ratio >2. The patient
denied a history of hepatitis infection, IVDA, family history of
liver disease and personal history of autoimmune disease.
Hepatitis B/C titers showed no evidence of prior or active
disease. Iron:TIBC ratio was within normal limits. ___ and
anti-SM returned mildly positive; but of undetermined clinical
significance. RUQ ultrasound showed no biliary dilatation,
nodular hepatic architecture with splenomegaly and trace
ascites. The patient's obesity and associated metabolic profile
may have predisposed her to NAFLD/NASH and related cirrhosis.
Discriminant function was ~21 on admission therefore she was
unlikely to benefit from steroids. She had no evidence of
hepatic encephalopathy. The patient was extensively counselled
on the importance of sobriety. She was seen by social work and
set up with prompt outpatient follow up.
# ANEMIA: MCV 109, baseline unclear. The patient's hematocrit
remained stable. Contributing factors to her anemia include
recent GIB, splenomegaly and alcohol abuse. B12/folate testing
should be considered as an outpatient.
# Porcelain gallbladder containing numerous calcified
gallstones, which increases risk for gallbladder carcinoma.
Non-emergent surgical consult is recommended.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
********************
-Porcelain gallbladder requires non-emergent surgical consult
-Consider testing for folate/B12 deficiency

Brief Hospital Course:
HOSPITAL COURSE
===============
Mr. ___ is a ___ man with lumbar
degenerative joint disease, spinal stenosis, pancytopenia with
likely smoldering multiple myeloma who presented with severe
back pain. The patient experienced this pain the morning after
he felt a twinge while bowling. Fluid notable on spine MRI,
likely not infectious, and may be secondary to inflammation from
DJD. Symptoms control with Tylenol, oxycodone, flexeril. No
systemic signs of cord compression or infection.
ACTIVE ISSUES
=============
# Lower back pain
# Degenerative joint disease:
# Back and lower extremity numbness pain and paresthesias:
Patient was being seen by multiple specialists including
neurology and was going to see the spine clinic on day of
admission to evaluate his multilevel lumbar degenerative changes
with spinal stenosis, when he had acute worsening of back pain
to the point he could not move without extreme discomfort. He
may have worsened pain after inadvertently hurting it during
activity (bowling). There was fluid notable on MRI, likely not
infectious, and may be secondary to inflammation from DJD.
Spinal stenosis may have contributed to patient's pain prior to
presentation as well. No symptoms of infection or cord
compression. Symptoms controlled with Tylenol, oxycodone,
flexeril; avoiding NSAIDS due to prior gastric cancer with
partial gastrectomy and concern for bleed. Patient able to
ambulate and pain tolerable by time of discharge.
# Pancytopenia: Unclear etiology, but underwent extensive work
up including bone marrow biopsy by hem/onc and underwent
extensive liver work up and liver etiology for pancytopenia was
not found. Hem/onc believes he may have some element of
myelodysplastic syndrome; however, there were no cytogenetic
abnormalities on biopsy and he had a 9% involvement of plasma
cells consistent with monoclonal gammopathy, bordering
smoldering multiple myeloma. Stable inpatient, will be seen by
Dr. ___ for follow up

severe LUQ pain hours after splenic arterial embolization for
large splenomegaly with splenic infarcts and subcapsular
hematoma.
Mr. ___ was diagnosed with MDS/MPN in ___, but began
to have worsening macrocytic anemia ___ with workup
culminating in a BM Bx done ___ showing MDS with acquisition
of trisomy 8 and mutations in RUNX1 and KRAS. In ___, he
began
to have worsening leukocytosis and repeat BM Bx ___ was
consistent with evolving MDS/MPN overlap. CT A/P done in late
___ also demonstrated worsening splenomegaly and subcapsular
splenic hematoma.
He was admitted ___ for the splenic findings. He remained
HDS during that admission. ACS was consulted and recommended ___
splenic artery embolization to shrink spleen size and control
bleeding if possible prior to considering splenectomy. However,
on review of images with ___, embolization was deferred as there
was no evidence of active bleed.
After discharge, he continued to have LUQ pain and repeat CT
___
showed new splenic infarcts and increased perisplenic hemorrhage
without active extravasation. He therefore underwent outpatient
___ splenic artery embolization via left radial access on ___
(day prior to admission).
Mr. ___ reports that on the way home from his procedure,
he began to note LUQ pain. This accelerated over the course of
hours until he was experiencing the worst pain of his life. He
describes it is a sharp, stabbing/hitting with a hammer,
continuous pain that is worse with movement, deep breaths, and
eating. He reports associated nausea but no emesis, diarrhea,
fevers, chills. He did notice some dampness without frank night
sweats.
He spoke with his outpatient oncologist who recommended
presentation to the ED for further evaluation.
In the ED: T 97.5 | 84 | 117/85 | 100% RA. He was noted on exam
to have tender splenomegaly a bedside FAST exam was negative.
Splenic ultrasound did not reveal increased hematoma. A CTA A/P
was then obtained, showing worsened subcapsular hematoma without
active extravasation and numerous small air locules in the
spleen.
He was given IV morphine 4, dilaudid 1 x 2, Zofran 4 prior to
admission.

Past Medical History:
-Diffuse large B cell lymphoma
-Smoldering multiple myeloma
-MDS/MPN
-Gastric cancer, resected in ___, no chemotherapy or
radiotherapy, with no evidence of disease recurrence since that
time.
-Hypercholesterolemia
-Severe lumbar degenerative joint disease
-Peptic ulcer
-Sciatica and severe DJD
Oncologic hx:
- ___: Develops mild leukopenia (WBC 3.3) and
thrombocytopenia
(142,00).
- ___: Found to have monoclonal IgG kappa representing 7%
of total protein, approximately 500 mg/dL. Serum free light
chain
ratio at that time was 3.62, with quantitative IgG 1200, IgA
155,
and IgM 63. There was no ___ proteinuria. BUN,
creatinine, and calcium all normal. This was thought to
represent
MGUS.
- ___: Initial evaluation by Dr. ___ at ___, who
agrees with the diagnosis of MGUS, but believes that the mild
leukopenia and transient thrombocytopenia represent a separate
process. She recommends monitoring of SPEP and SFLC q4-6 months,
then yearly if stable, as well as yearly CBC monitoring.
- ___: Transitions Hematology care to Dr. ___ at
___, who also plans to monitor SPEP, SFLC, and CBC
periodically.
- ___: Incidentally noted to have progressive cytopenias on
evaluation for steroid injection for lower back pain, with WBC
3.0 (66% PMNs, 28% Lymphs, 5% Monos, 1% Atypical), Hgb 11.0, Plt
72. Also noted on renal ultrasound to have splenomegaly to 14.5
cm.
- ___: Bone marrow biopsy reveals hypercellularity for age
(70-80%), with maturing trilineage hematopoiesis and mildly
increased megakaryocytes, with plasma cells representing 9% of
aspirate differential. Flow cytometry consistent with
involvement
by a kappa-restricted plasma cell dyscrasia. The history of
cytopenias, hypercellular marrow and mild megakaryocytic
abnormalities raised the possibility of an evolving
myelodysplastic syndrome. Cytogenetics revealed 46,XY[20] with
FISH positive for t(11;14). Because of a firm liver edge and
mild
splenomegaly he was referred to Hepatology. It is Dr. ___ that this likely represents an early/evolving
myelodysplastic syndrome.
- ___: Evaluated by Drs. ___ of Hepatology,
who
recommend a Fibroscan, which demonstrated a score of 8.8 kPa,
consistent with liver scarring at a Metavir Stage 2, possibly
indicative of moderate fibrosis.
- ___: EGD does not demonstrate any esophageal varices.
- ___: Liver biopsy demonstrates active hepatitis and focal
lymphocytic cholangitis with rare granuloma associated with a
large central vein.
~ ___: Develops a palpable right supraclavicular lymph node
in
the context of 25 pound weight loss over the preceding year. He
denies fever and night sweats.
- ___: PET scan demonstrates FDG-avidity in a right
supraclavicular lymph node, diffusely abnormal mildly-increased
FDG uptake throughout the skeleton, and mild splenomegaly
without
FDG uptake.

lymph node which indicates DLBCL positive for CD20, CD10, BCL6,
negative for MUM1 in the majority of cells, Ki67 70%, germinal
center phenotype by ___, cytogenetics with
46,XY,add(16), negative for translocations involving myc, Bcl2,
and Cyclin D1.
- ___: Repeat bone marrow biopsy at ___ by Dr. ___.
This reveals markedly hypercellular bone marrow for age (70-80%
cellular) with mild dyspoiesis, involvement by plasma cell
dyscrasia ___ kappa light chain restricted plasma cells). No
diagnostic morphologic findings of involvement by lymphoma were
seen. Karyotype demonstrated 46,XY[20], with FISH negative for
MDS panel; however, FISH did again demonstrate t(11;14),
consistent with prior plasma cell dyscrasia finding. Rapid Heme
panel reveals mutations in ASXL1, EZH2, TET2, CBL, and RIT1,
consistent with underlying/evolving myelodysplastic syndrome.
Serum monoclonal IgG kappa 480 mg/dL. Therefore, he was
additionally diagnosed with MDS ___ score 3 consistent with
low risk disease) and smoldering multiple myeloma.
- ___: C1 rituximab.
- ___: C1 CHOP.
- ___: Frankly neutropenic and thrombocytopenic on C1D10 of
CHOP. Filgrastim 300 mcg x 1 and platelet transfusion
administered.
- ___: Ongoing severe neutropenia without fever; filgrastim
480 mcg x 1 administered. Given these significant cytopenias
(likely related to underlying MDS), the treatment plan is
altered
to consist of definitive involved field radiotherapy with
rituximab/prednisone alone (i.e. no further cytotoxic
chemotherapy).
- ___: C2 rituximab/prednisone. Platelet transfusion
administered.

microliter, ANC 1520.
- ___: Completes radiotherapy.
- ___: C3 rituximab/prednisone.
- ___: PET reveals interval resolution of previously seen
FDG
avid right supraclavicular lymphadenopathy, with no evidence of
new FDG avid disease. Additionally, interval increase in size of
non-FDG-avid splenomegaly (to 17.6 cm) was noted, as well as
unchanged mild diffuse FDG uptake in the skeleton.
- ___: CBC stable. Monoclonal protein improved (120 mg/dL)
and serum free light chain ratio improved (1.2),
- ___: CBC again stable (WBC 2.2, ANC 1170, Hgb 9.8, Plt
66).
- ___: CBC again stable (WBC 3.5, ANC 2210, Hgb 9.2, Plt 70,

IMAGING/REPORTS:
===========
___ Splenic US:
FINDINGS:
SPLEEN: The spleen is enlarged and measures 19.6 cm. There are
at least 2
peripheral wedge-shaped echogenic areas within the spleen
demonstrating a
similar distribution to the prior CTA which consistent with
areas of known
splenic infarcts. These have not significantly changed since
prior CT. Also,
given the differences in technique, small perisplenic fluid has
also not
significantly changed since prior.
IMPRESSION:
Allowing for differences in technique, the perisplenic fluid has
not
significantly changed since the most recent prior CT. Echogenic
areas in the
spleen compatible with infarcts.
___ CTA Abd/Pelvis:
IMPRESSION:
1. Massive splenomegaly with multiple new areas of infarction
associated with
tiny locules of air secondary to aseptic necrosis. Infection is
in the
differential only in the appropriate clinical scenario, please
note air
locules may be present without infection following splenic
embolization.
2. Stable size of subcapsular hematoma, that was also noted on
the pre
embolization scan. No active extravasation of contrast to
suggest ongoing
bleed seen. Small hemoperitoneum.
3. Artifact from embolization coil at the proximal splenic
artery without
evidence of dissection. There is narrowing of the native
splenic artery
caliber distal to the embolization without presence of a
thrombus.
___ CXR:
IMPRESSION:
In comparison with the study of ___, the there are lower
lung volumes
that accentuate the prominence of the transverse diameter of the
heart.
Nevertheless, the cardiac silhouette is within normal limits and
there is
tortuosity of the descending thoracic aorta. No evidence of
vascular
congestion or pleural effusion.
In the retrocardiac region there is increased opacification that
could merely
reflect atelectatic changes. However, in the appropriate
clinical setting,
superimposed pneumonia would have to be considered.
___ CTA Chest:
IMPRESSION:
1. Limited evaluation of the segmental and subsegmental
pulmonary arteries in
the lower lobes of both lungs due to degradation from
respiratory motion.
Otherwise, no evidence of pulmonary embolism.
2. Trace left pleural effusion and bibasilar atelectasis.
3. Multiple pulmonary nodules measuring up to 3 mm in the right
upper lobe are
unchanged as compared to CT chest ___. Previously
characterized 6
mm subpleural nodule left lower lobe noted on chest CT ___ is not
identified on the study.
For incidentally detected multiple solid pulmonary nodules
smaller than 6mm,
no CT follow-up is recommended in a low-risk patient, and an
optional CT
follow-up in 12 months is recommended in a high-risk patient.
___ CXR:
IMPRESSION:
Lungs are low volume with bibasilar atelectasis. There are
small bilateral
effusions right greater than left. Right-sided central line
projects to the
cavoatrial junction. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable.
No pneumothorax
is seen
___ CTA Abd/Pelvis:
IMPRESSION:
1. Redemonstration of massive splenomegaly (measuring up to 21.3
cm,
previously 24 cm) with large areas of infarction, and
subcapsular splenic
hematoma with associated locules of air, likely aseptic
necrosis. Superimposed
infection cannot be excluded in the appropriate clinical
setting. The
subcapsular hematoma has slightly decreased in thickness,
however there is
interval increase in patient's hemoperitoneum in the abdomen and
pelvis.
2. Status post embolization of the proximal splenic artery, with
persistent
flow to the distal splenic branches. No evidence of active
contrast
extravasation.
3. Unchanged lymphadenopathy in the mesentery and
retroperitoneum, consistent
with patient's known history of lymphoma.
4. Interval increase in small bilateral pleural effusions with
adjacent
compressive atelectasis. Lung bases show no findings concerning
for active
infection. 2 mm nodule in the right middle lobe requires no
follow-up in low
risk population. See full set of recommendations below, if
clinically
indicated.
___ TTE:
CONCLUSION:
The left atrium is normal in size. There is no evidence for an
atrial septal defect by 2D/color Doppler. The
estimated right atrial pressure is ___ mmHg. There is normal
left ventricular wall thickness with a normal
cavity size. There is normal regional and global left
ventricular systolic function. Overall left ventricular systolic
function is hyperdynamic. The visually estimated left
ventricular ejection fraction is >=75%. There is no
resting left ventricular outflow tract gradient. No ventricular
septal defect is seen. Tissue Doppler suggests a
normal left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP less than
12mmHg). Normal right ventricular cavity size with
normal free wall motion. The aortic sinus diameter is normal for
gender. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are
mildly thickened. There is no aortic valve stenosis. There is no
aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve leaflets
are mildly thickened 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 moderate pulmonary
artery systolic hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality. Normal left ventricular
wall thickness, cavity size, and
hyperdynamic regional/global systolic function. Mild tricuspid
regurgitation. Moderate pulmonary artery
systolic hypertension.
Compared with the prior TTE ___ , the degree of tricuspid
regurgitation and the estimated
pulmonary artery systolic pressure have increased.
___ CTA Abd Pelvis:
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of active hemorrhage.
2. Stable marked splenomegaly with extensive infarction and
subcapsular
hematoma. Mildly increased volume of ascites, with increased
density in
keeping with hemoperitoneum.
3. Stable appearance of mild abdominal and pelvic
lymphadenopathy.
___ ___ US
No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right or left lower
extremity
veins.
___ US
1. Splenomegaly with multiple hypoechoic splenic infarcts,
overall unchanged
compared to the recent CT abdomen.
2. 4 mm hyperechoic focus in the gallbladder, could represent a
polyp or
stone. No sonographic signs of acute cholecystitis
___ CXR
Lungs are low volume with moderate pulmonary edema. Right-sided
central line
is unchanged. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable.
Bilateral effusions
left greater than right are unchanged. No pneumothorax is seen
___ US
Splenomegaly measuring 22.3 cm with a heterogeneous appearance
compatible with
previously described splenic infarcts. Anechoic fluid
surrounding the spleen
with at least one septation could reflect an evolving
subcapsular hematoma or
loculated pleural fluid.
___ CT Abd
1. Small amount of layering hyperdensity within the right
paracolic gutter and
mild peritoneal enhancement, which may be related to recent
paracentesis.
2. Moderate amount of stool within the rectum with surrounding
bowel wall
thickening and enhancement and thickening of the anus, which may
represent
fecal impaction with developing stercoral colitis.
3. Unchanged severe splenomegaly with extensive parenchymal
infarction.
4. Redemonstration of a possible cystic lesion within the
pancreatic head,
better characterized on prior multiphasic CTA studies.
___ CXR
The right IJ central venous catheter has been removed. There
are low lung
volumes. Linear opacities in the bilateral lung bases most
likely represent
subsegmental atelectasis. There is no focal consolidation,
pleural effusion
or pneumothorax. The cardiomediastinal silhouette is within
normal limits.
There is no significant pulmonary edema. There are no acute
osseous
abnormalities.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr ___ is a ___ y/o M with MDS/MPN, DLBCL, smoldering
myeloma, gastric cancer (s/p surgical resection in 1980s),
cryptogenic cirrhosis (without history of decompensation), who
presents after splenic arterial embolization with splenic
infarcts and
subcapsular hematoma. His hospital course was complicated by
severe leukocytosis (WBC 40>140 after admission), as well as
oliguric ___ ___ contrast induced nephropathy, requiring brief
period of CRRT and supplemental oxygen in the ICU. He was later
transferred back to the floor for further management of
cytopenias, ascites, and his abdominal discomfort. He received
multiple therapeutic paracenteses. We attempted to start
treatment with azacitadine, which was stopped after 2 days due
to ___ and hypervolemia. He also developed a stool ball and
stercoral colitis requiring disimpaction. At the time of
discharge, all acute issues were resolved, but he was requiring
frequent blood and platelet transfusions. The patient will
receive careful outpatient care for transfusions and monitoring
of blood counts.
ACTIVE ISSUES:
==============
# Splenic Hematoma/Infarcts (s/p splenic arterial embolization)
Massive splenomegaly from MDS/MPN, with splenic hemorrhage, so
embolization was completed on ___ in his attempt to control
bleeding and allow for treatment initiation. The patient
unfortunately developed further hematoma, hemorrhage, resulting
in the complications below.
#Oliguric Acute Kidney Injury
#CIN/ATN
Patient noted to have Cr increase to 2.4 from 1.0 overnight
___. Most likely this represents a contrast induced
nephropathy. Nephrology consulted on ___: agreed with CIN with
development of ATN based on casts seen on microscopy. Patient
ultimately required CRRT while kidney function recovered. Was
able to be taken off CRRT with good UOP by ___. Renal function
subsequently improved back to baseline. He did also develop
hyperuricemia and was started on allopurinol.
#Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure
Patient triggered overnight ___ for O2 sats in low ___ on room
air. O2 sats improved on 5L NC to low ___.
Felt to be likely related to volume overload/pulmonary edema
from heavy IVF for contrast nephropathy/TLS as well as worsening
renal failure. Hypoxemia resolved after CRRT/improved urine
output.
#Leukocytosis
Elevation of WBC 40--> 140s after admission. This is most likely
due to the patient's underlying disease, or leukemoid type
reaction given splenic arterial embolization. He was continued
on hydroxyurea 2000mg bid until ___. White count trended down
after this time.
# MDS/MPN/Chronic Neutrophilic Leukemia
# Chronic anemia
# Thrombocytopenia
# Leukocytosis
Anemia and thrombocytopenia have been worsening over the course
of admission, likely due to splenic infarction/hematoma and
underlying worsening MDS and likelihood that spleen was
supporting platelet production via extra-medullary
hematopoiesis. Azacitadine was attempted on ___ to manage
underlying disease, but had to be discontinued after 2
days because patient developed ___. Now planned to trial
ruxolitinib, but will likely require supportive platelet
transfusions while using this drug. Plan to obtain medication,
then treat as an outpatient with every other day visits. The
patient was
transfused to maintain hgb > 7, plt > 10, and required daily
platelet transfusions and frequent RBC transfusions.
#Cryptogenic Cirrhosis
#Ascites
Patient with history of cryptogenic cirrhosis, seen by Dr ___
in ___ clinic in ___, and s/p full workup including
liver
biopsy. He never has had any complications or decompensations in
the past. Patient also noted to have ascites on CT, which is
possibly from bleeding but also likely ascites from
decompensated
liver disease. S/p therapeutic paracentesis on ___.
Peritoneal fluid demonstrates SAGG ~ 1.0, concerning for
non-portal HTN etiologies of ascites. Cytology within normal
limits, and no other etiology could be found. Unclear etiology
of cirrhosis at this time, but still
appears that portal hypertension is most likely contributing.
The patient was continued on Lasix 20 po /spirono 50 daily with
improvement in his ascites.
#Fecal Impaction, resolved
#Stercoral colitis, resolved
Patient with worsening abdominal pain, with CT on ___ showing
large fecal impaction and stercoral colitis. Patient suffering
extreme lower abdominal pain. Patiently initially failed
aggressive bowel regimen, enemas, disimpaction, but was
successfully disimpacted by colorectal surgery and GI, with
multiple large BM since that time. He will be continued on daily
scheduled bowel regimen, as well as symptomatic care for
hemorrhoids.
#Severe Malnutrition
Continued on regular diet while hospitalized. Nutrition was
consulted to assist with diet, which was supplemented with high
protein drinks
CHRONIC ISSUES:
==============
#Germinal center type DLBCL-
S/p R-CHOP x 1 cycle (stopped for cytopenia), then 2 cycles of
ritux/prednisone, involved field radiotherapy, with complete
response via PET.
#Sciatica, DJD
Continued lidocaine patch.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ was admitted to ___ on ___ and
was diagnosed with perforated appendicitis with a 3x3cm abscess
formation on imaging. Upon presentation to the emergency
department the patient was admitted to the Acute Care Surgery
Unit. Coumadin was withheld given the possibility that the
patient might had to undergo a surgical procedure.
Upon further evaluation it was determined that the abscess was
too small to be drained with an interventional radiology
procedure. For this reason the decision was made to treat Mr.
___ with IV antibiotics. He was recovering well and he was
placed on a heparin drip with the intention to bridge him back
to Coumadin. His IV antibiotics were stopped. During this time,
Mr. ___ experienced again pain in the right lower quadrant.
A concern for an increase of the abscess formation was made. In
light of possible need for ___ drainage the heparin was withheld.
Upon evaluation and consultation with interventional radiology
the abscess was not amenable to drainage. Antibiotics were
continued and the heparin was appropriately bridged to Coumadin.
Upon discharge his INR was in therapeutic levels.
During this hospitalization, the patient ambulated frequently,
was adherent with respiratory toilet and incentive spirometry,
and actively participated in the plan of care.
At the time of discharge, the patient was doing well, afebrile
with stable vital signs. The patient was tolerating a regular
diet, ambulating, voiding without assistance, and pain was well
controlled. The patient was discharged home without services.
The patient received discharge teaching and follow-up
instructions with understanding verbalized and agreement with
the discharge plan.
The patient agreed and verbally confirmed that he would be
following up on ___ with the clinic where he gets
his INR checked. He confirmed that he will also follow up with

Imaging
=======
TTE ___
IMPRESSION: Mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with
relatively small cavity and low normal global systolic function.
Moderately dilate right ventricle with moderate systolic
dysfunction (apex relatively preserved - ___ sign). Along
with severe pulmonary hypertension this suggests there may be
acute on chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension in
context of known acute PE. Very small pericardial effusion
predominantly apically.
___ ___
1. Deep venous thrombosis in one of the left peroneal veins.
2. No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right lower
extremity.
TTE ___
The estimated right atrial pressure is ___ mmHg. Due to
suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality
cannot be fully excluded. Overall left ventricular systolic
function is normal (LVEF>55%). with borderline normal free wall
function. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be
determined due to artifact from ___ from the EKOS ultrasound
probe. There is a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion.
There are no echocardiographic signs of tamponade.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___
this study is focused, but does demonstrate that the right
ventricle appears smaller and function is improved. PASP could
not be calculated due to acoustic artifact.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ admitted for bilateral PEs with evidence of RV strain on CT,
signs of acute-on-chronic thromboembolic pulmonary HTN with RV
dilation on TTE, and LLE DVT on LENIs s/p EKOS catheter
placement with tPA lysis of PEs. On lovenox bridge to Coumadin
for long-term management.
#BILATERAL PEs: transferred from OSH with bilateral PEs and
evidence of RV strain on CT. Pt was hemodynamically stable on
arrival to floor at ___. Doppler US of lower extremities on
admission revealed LLE DVT. s/p EKOS with tPA-directed lysis and
ICU monitoring, pt was then treated with enoxaparin, and
Coumadin was initiated on ___. Being discharged with lovenox
bridge until INR ___ on Coumadin (insurance would not cover
NOAC).
#DMII: on metformin and gliperide at home; held during
admission. On ISS while in house. Will resume home regimen upon
discharge.
#HLD: Continued home Atorvastatin 40mg daily
#HTN: on lisinopril 20mg at home. Held on admission for blood
pressure stabilization. BPs on discharge in 110s-120s. Continue
to hold lisinopril. Can re-assess with primary care doctor.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
# ACUTE-ON-CHRONIC THROMBOEMBOLIC PULMONARY HYPERTENSION: as
evidenced by echocardiography. Will follow-up with Dr ___ in
clinic for this issue.
# BILATERAL PEs: going home with lovenox bridge to Coumadin.
Should stay on lovenox until INR is ___ with Coumadin. Will be
followed by PCP for this.
# UNPROVOKED PEs: this is reportedly the second time patient has
presented like this. Should pursue a hypercoagulable work as an
outpatient, as well as age-appropriate cancer screening (never
had colonoscopy).

BRIEF HOSPITAL COURSE:
======================
# Abdominal Pain: Unclear etiology. Migration from the LLQ to
the epigastrum per history is unusual for abdominal pain. Vitals
unremarkable throughout her stay. Has epigastric pain with
palpation, but no other remarkable findings on physical exam,
particularly after RLQ tenderness was not repeated on sequential
exams, and other appendiceal physical signs were negative.
Laboratory and radiologic testing were not remarkable for acute
process, though "mild nonspecific fat stranding around the
ascending colon as well as equivocal mild colonic wall edema"
was called in the CT results (wetread). This radiologic finding
is of unclear diagnostic significance, though though her lack of
WBC elevation and elevated lactate, as well as lack of
peritoneal signs on clinical exam, are reassuring. EKG here
unremarkable for ischemic change. Given that she had not been on
her home pantoprazole, this medication was restarted, with GI
cocktail, donnatol and simethecone also administered for
comfort. She had some relief with these measures, and was able
to take PO. For presumed dyspepsia, she was discharged on high
dose pantoprazole, and recommended to take Tylenol and Maalox
for additional comfort.
Medications on Admission:
None.

IMAGING
=======
CT C/A/P W/CON (___)
IMPRESSION:
1. No definite acute intrathoracic or intra-abdominal sequela of
trauma.
2. A 2.6 x 1.5 cm peripheral hypodensity in the lateral aspect
of the spleen with peripheral thin calcification is most likely
chronic, potentially prior laceration or infarct.
3. Areas of rounded atelectasis in the lungs bilaterally with a
small right pleural effusion.
4. Multiple compression deformities throughout the thoracic and
lumbar spine without CT evidence of acuity though to be
correlated clinically. Multiple old rib fractures bilaterally.
CT HEAD W/O CON (___)
IMPRESSION:
1. There are no acute intracranial findings, no hemorrhage.
2. Global volume loss. White matter hypodensities which could
represent sequela of prior infarcts or other insult.
3. A 1.1 cm suspected colloid cyst without hydrocephalus.
CT NECK W/O CON (___)
1. No mass or obstruction seen in the upper airway.
2. Severe degenerative changes of C2 to C 5.
3. Ultrasound follow-up is recommended for large heterogeneous
thyroid.
[hospitalist adds that the degenerative of c3 and c4 result in a
huge osteophyte projecting anteriorly directly toward the
hypopharynx/epiglottis, which may explain his tendency to have
profound transient desaturations]
CTA CHEST (___)
-------------------
1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or aortic abnormality.
2. Similar appearance of the lungs, with multifocal scarring and
rounded
atelectasis at the lung bases.
3. Bilateral subacute-to-chronic rib fractures.
4. Dilated main pulmonary artery is suggestive of pulmonary
arterial
hypertension.
5. Dilated ascending thoracic aorta measuring up to 4.5 cm.
6. Enlarged heterogenous thyroid gland with calcifications and
nodules.
TTE (___)
-------------
CONCLUSION:
The left atrial volume index is normal. The estimated right
atrial pressure is >15mmHg. There is mild symmetric left
ventricular hypertrophy with a mildly increased/dilated cavity.
There is moderate global left ventricular hypokinesis.
Quantitative biplane left ventricular ejection fraction is 36 %.
There is no resting left ventricular outflow tract gradient.
Normal right ventricular cavity size with low normal free wall
motion. The aortic sinus diameter is normal for gender 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
mild [1+] 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. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure
is borderline elevated. There is no pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with
mildly dilated cavity and moderately reduced global systolic
function. Borderline right ventricular free wall systolic
function. Mild aortic regurgitation.
VIDEO SWALLOW (___)
Penetration of thin liquids without aspiration identified.
Moderate oropharyngeal dysphagia most notable for significantly
reduced base of tongue retraction and significantly reduced
pharyngeal stripping with fairly good airway protection. These
deficits resulted in pharyngeal residue with solids > liquids,
increasing in severity with complexity of texture.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ w/ hyperthyroidism ___ toxic multinodular goiter, a-flutter,
history of inadequate housing but currently domiciled, and heavy
EtOH abuse, who was was found down with head laceration after
presumed fall and admitted for alcohol withdrawal, sow s/p ICU
phenobarbital protocol. Course c/b 2:1 Aflutter s/p TEE/DCCV
___ (now on xarelto) w/ newly diagnosed HFrEF (EF 36%)
-presumed tachycardia-mediated, as well as hyperthyroidism due
to multinodular goiter.
#Aflutter with RVR:
Felt to be somewhat chronic given elevated heart rates at ___
earlier this year. Presented with HR in the 140-150s with 2:1 AF
on EKG. This was in the context of alcohol withdrawal, PNA, and
hypothyroidism. He was initially admitted to the FICU and
managed with multiple nodal agents, including diltiazem gtt, and
ultimately loaded with digoxin. CHADSVASC=1 and felt to be high
risk of fall, so initially did not start anticoagulation.
Cardiology was consulted for help with management. He had a TTE
that showed a newly reduced EF, and so diltiazem was
discontinued in favor of beta blockade. Given continued
difficulty controlling rates w/ digoxin + metoprolol, he
underwent TEE/cardioversion on ___. He was anticoagulated with
rivaroxaban due to this procedure and will need to continue
anticoagulation x1 month. Per cardiology he will need cardiology
follow-up in ___ weeks, which is being arranged by cardiology at
the time of discharge. Per EP he should also have follow-up with
Dr. ___ (EP) within 1 month of discharge to discuss
possible ablation procedure. His metoprolol dose was increased
(now ___ XL daily).
#Cardiomyopathy:
TTE on ___ with dilated cardiomyopathy with global hypokinesis
and EF 36%. Etiology thought to be most likely
tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy given AF. Other contributing
causes: EtOH and hyperthyroidism. HIV negative. Cardiolgoy
consulted as above. The patient was started on beta blockade
with metoprolol and ACEi. Appeared warm and dry on exam without
diuretic, though noted on CXR to have small bilateral pleural
effusions.
#EtOH Use Disorder
#EtOH Withdrawal
Drinking 2 pints of vodka daily before admission. Denied history
of withdrawal seizures or DTs. Treated in the ICU with
phenobarbital protocol. Social work consulted. Patient expressed
motivation to stop drinking in light of recent cardiac
diagnoses. He is planning to seek support from his outpatient
case manager and therapist as well as weekly AA meetings. He was
started on thiamine, folic acid, MVI.
#Hypoxemia
#c/f Pneumonia
Patient with new O2 requirement while in the FICU, with history
of cough. Treated empirically for CAP with ceftriaxone/azithro
for 5 day course (___). S&S evaluation with concern for
aspiration, as below. He continued to have intermittent
desaturations throughout admission. CXR ___ without pulmonary
edema or infiltrates. He was wheezy on exam raising possibility
of undiagnosed COPD given prior heavy smoking history. His
wheezing resolved with duonebs. He should have PFTs as an
outpatient. There was also concern during hospitalization for
vocal cord dysfunction given hypoxemia and muffled voice. ENT
consulted and did not find any notable findings on scope. They
recommended a CT neck to further evaluate, which showed
"degenerative changes" at C3/C4 with an anterior osteophyte,
which might be etiology.
#Thyroid nodules / hyperthyroidism
Patient has a several-year history of hyperthyroidism, on
methimazole prior to admission but with PCP concerns about
adherence. His last u/s was in ___ which showed multiple
nodules, unchanged from ___. On admission home methimazole 10mg
was resumed. Endocrine was consulted for help with management.
Recommended continued methimazole and BB. FT4, TT3, T3up wnl on
___. There is concern for medication compliance, therefore upon
discharge from rehab he should be set up with a home ___
aide to ensure medication compliance. Plan for endocrine
follow-up in 2 weeks. This appointment is being scheduled by the
endocrine team and not yet finalized by discharge.
#Fall with headstrike
Presented after a fall with head laceration. ___ evaluated
patient and recommended discharge to rehab.
#Dysphagia
Seen by speech and swallow, recommending slow advancement to a
ground diet with thin liquids. Medications crushed in puree
followed by sips of thin liquids. Oral care q4. Aspiration
precautions with strict 1:1 supervision for ALL po intake.
Alternate bites and sips to prevent accumulation of residue. No
straws. Will need continued speech/swallow therapy while at
rehab.
#Vitamin D Deficiency
D2 50,000 IU QWeek
#Hypocalcemia:
Calcium carbonate 500 mg TID
#Depression:
Held home bupropion given concern for reduced seizure threshold
and will not resume on discharge. Continued home doxepin.
Discussed with PCP.
#TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
[ ] Repeat TFTs on ___
[ ] Thyroid ultrasound as an outpatient
[ ] Recommend outpatient PFTs given wheezing and intermittent
desaturations
[ ] Management of depression - bupropion d/c on admission given
c/f reduced seizure threshold with alcohol use disorder
[ ] Set up with ___ upon d/c from rehab to ensure medication
compliance with regards to methimazole.

Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old man with PMHx notable for HCV cirrhosis, CAD,
chronic IVC clot on warfarin, COPD on ___ home O2,
polysubstance abuse, and recent punctate L parietal hemorrhage
who presents with worsening lower extremity edema and worsening
spontaneous bleeding in the lower extremity varicosities in the
setting of a supretherapeutic INR (6.0).
<<<Active Issues
#Supratherapeutic INR. Warfarin was held. patient did not
experience additional bleeding episodes while inpatient.
Warfarin was restarted at 2mg on ___ to maintain INR ___. On
discharge, INR was therapeutic at 2.2.
#COPD Exacerbation. On admission, he was not requiring O2
(despite stating he uses ___ L at home chronically). On ___ he
developed increased cough, sputum (blood tinged), and oxygen
requirement, and was treated for a presumed COPD exacerbation.
He received DuoNeb treatments q4hrs and was treated with
prednisone 40mg and Levofloxacin 750mg PO for 5 days to be
completed ___.
# NSVT. Given his chronic use of methadone, he was monitored on
telemetry given the potential for levofloxacin and methadone to
prolong QTc. He experienced intermittent runs of NSVT (<5 beats,
self terminating) and chest pain. Multiple EKGs were performed
with non-prolonged QTc, unchanged sinus bradycardia and LAFB,
and some pre-atrial beats. Chest pain was always reproducible on
physical exam, suggestive of MSK pain. Troponin was negative.
Potassium and Magnesium were repleated as needed.
# Chronic lower extremity venous stasis. Diuresied with 20mg IV
2x on admission for edema extending up past knees. We limited
diuresis due to SBP 100s/60s and the risk of hepatorenal failure
given his chronic liver disease. His lisinopril was held after
admission due to SBPs 100s/60s.
# Headache/Blurry Vision/Drowsyness. He developed new onset
blurry vision and headache on the morning of ___ so a
non-contrast head CT to evaluate for hemorrhage was performed
and was negative for any acute intracranial process.
Orthostatics were also negative.
# Dizziness/Falls. He reported increased dizziness and falls
prior to admission. A TTE was done on ___ which showed a mild
increase in pulmonary artery systolic pressure compared with
previous exam from ___. Orthostatics were negative.
# Cirrhois ___ chronic Hepatitis C. Patient did not show signs
of acute hepatic encephalopathy during this admission. Lactulose
was increased to 30mL q4hrs. His home nadolol and omeprazole was
administered.
#Polysubstance Abuse/Dependance. Methadone was continued at 55mg
during this admission. The medical team was concerned that he
was overly sedated with his narcotic regimen so clonazepam was
titrated down from 2mg TID to 1mg TID during the
hospitalization. The patient objected strongly to the suggestion
that he was overly sedated with the narcotics and threatened to
leave the hospital multiple times.
<<< Chronic Issues
# CAD. Continued home Atorvastatin 80 mg PO QPM. Held
Lisinopril 10mg daily.
# BPH. Continued home Tamsulosin 0.4 mg PO QHS
# PTSD. Pt spoke with SW during this admission regarding his
prior military experiences in ___.

Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old man with PMHx notable for HCV cirrhosis, CAD, COPD
on ___ home O2, CAD, chronic ___, DVT/PE on Coumadin who
presents to the ___ ED with worsening lower extremity edema
and worsening spontaneous bleeding in the lower extremity
varicosities.
# Hypotension:
Most likely due to overdiuresis in setting of recent up
titration of diuretic, also fits with acute renal failure.
Reports fevers at home but none here and infectious work up was
negative. Troponins flat making cardiogenic cause of hypotension
unlikely. The patients diuretics were held and he was given
gentle IV hydration with improvement in both renal function and
blood pressure. His antihypertensives were held and resumed
prior to discharge, but at lower doses: Lisinopril 5mg daily,
Lasix 60mg daily, Nadolol held
# ___:
Pre-renal in setting of overdiuresis. Improved to baseline with
hydration.
# Fall: Likely due to hypotension, no e/o neurologic etiology,
will w/u cardiac etiology as above. Head CT/c-spine reassuring,
last ECHO ___ without evidence of valvular disease. CT head/
C-spine negative for acute process.
- ___ c/s
# COPD with acute exacerbation:
Patient had productive cough with blood tinged sputum and very
poor air movement on exam. CXR negative for PNA. This was
consistent with a flare of his COPD. He was placed on
Prednisone 40mg daily and Augmentin 875mg BID x5 days in
addition to nebulizers and his chronic meds. Last day of
steroids and antibiotics are ___.
# Chronic diastolic CHF:
# CAD
Patient with low nl EF on last ECHO, BNP now lower than on
prior. Also evidence of severe pulmonary hypertension on recent
ECHO at ___. Taken off nadolol at some pt due to brady, however
pt states that he is taking at home. Diuretics were held in the
setting of hypotension and acute renal failure but were resumed
on discharge at dose listed above. Aspirin was continued. His
Nadolol was held in favor of Carvedilol for cardioprotection.
He has no documentation of varices and his Nadolol may have
contributed to his hypotension, so this was held.
# Lower extremity edema:
Chronic, suspect due to lymphedema due to chronic thrombosis/IVC
thrombosis, as well as possible contributions from volume
overload from HF/liver disease. This was managed with local
wound care
# Cirrhosis: Due to hep C, pt states worsening abd distension
and non-compliance with lactulose however no e/o worsening
encephalopathy at this time. Abdominal ultrasound with doppler
was without thrombosis and was otherwise unremarkable. Lactulose
was continued. Nadolol changed in favor of Carvedilol given no
clear documentation of varices and he has clear cardiac disease.
# Anemia: normocytic, near recent ___, likely AOCD in setting of
CKD, liver disease, possible varices, supertherapeutic INR, will
check iron studies given ferritin WNL at last check. No e/o
active bleeding however pt at high risk given liver disease,
# Chronic Hx PE/DVT: Supertherapeutic INR on admission, coumadin
was held and resumed once INR intherapuetic range, at first at a
lower dose 3mg, and then at 4mg daily. Close INR monitoring is
recommended. Next INR should be drawn ___ or ___.
# History of heroin use:
# Chronic pain:
The patent was continued on his methadone, dose confirmed on
admission. He was also given oxycodone for breakthrough pain as
prescribed by his PCP. Gabapentin was continued.

Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old man with PMHx notable for HCV cirrhosis, COPD on
___ home O2, CAD, chronic ___, DVT/PE on Coumadin who presented
to the ___ ED with dyspnea, worsening lower extremity
pain/swelling and falls.
# Chronic diastolic heart failure: Mr. ___ was recently
discharged ___nd was noted to be 104.1 kg
lbs. His admission weight was 102.3 kg. His worsening lower
extremity swelling was not thought to be predominantly caused by
a significant acute on chronic diastolic CHF exacerbation. He
may have had some increased volume given the mild congestion
seen on his chest X ray and his BNP of 1711. He received 40 mg
IV Lasix on admission with resolution of his dyspnea and mild
increase in his creatinine. He did not note any improvement in
his leg pain or swelling. He was discharged on his home dose of
Lasix 60 mg daily.
# Falls: Patient reports many falls at home and also fell once
in the ED. CT scans of the head were negative for hemorrhage.
His falls are likely mechanical as he reports difficulty with
walking given progressive BLE swelling. ___ evaluated the patient
and noted significant weakness and instability, recommending
discharge to rehab.
# Chronic lower extremity venous stasis. Likely related to
lymphedema from recurrent DVT with minor component from ___.
There was no evidence of overlying cellulitis. Wound care was
consulted but the patient refused the consult. He likewise
declined leg wraps.
# Chest pain: Patient described lightning-like chest pain that
awakens him from sleep and lasts a few seconds before
self-resolving. Trop-T x 2 were negative and ECG was repeatedly
without ischemic changes. His pain was also reproducible with
palpation of the left chest, indicating a musculoskeletal source
of the pain.
# Diarrhea: Patient reported that he had been having diarrhea
since his last hospitalization in ___. On further
questioning, he said that he had not had a BM in the three days
prior to presentation. Does say he has not had a BM in 3 days.
LFTs were normal and his abdominal exam was benign. C diff could
not be sent as he did not have a loose BM while in the hospital.
Lactulose was re-started on discharge.
# HCV cirrhosis: Complicated by hepatic encephalopathy in the
past; has no known history of esophageal varices. No evidence of
hepatic encephalopathy at this time. Initially held lactulose in
the setting of diarrhea but when he had no loose BMs in the
hospital, this was restarted.
# Polysubstance abuse: Patient has long history of chronic
narcotics use and heroin abuse. On admission, he claimed to be
prescribed MS ___ 50 mg BID and received this for one day,
but on the second day, he became somewhat somnolent and it was
discovered that this was an expired prescription and it was
discontinued. His methadone use was verified with his ___

Attending: ___.
Chief Complaint:
Dyspnea, ___ edema
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
Parts of history obtained from ___ as patient was confused at
time of interview.
Mr. ___ is a ___ M with history of CAD s/p STEMI with BMS
___, recurrent DVT/PE s/p IVC filter now thrombosed currently
on Coumadin, HTN, COPD on 2L home O2, PTSD/Depression/ASPD,
chronic lower extremity edema, polysubstance abuse and chronic
pain complicated by narcotics overdose presenting with worsening
of bilateral lower extremity edema and dyspnea.
On arrival, patient stated progressive dyspnea on exertion over
the last 3 days. He stated that he normally has difficulty
ambulating but this is much worse. He also had a non-productive
cough and is unclear if this is new for him. He also stated that
he may have had hemoptysis x2 a few days prior to admission, but
does not remember the quantity or quality of the sputum stating
he is "confused." He had no recent medication changes and no
changes in his diet.
He endorsed intermittent, shooting chest pain that exacerbates
his dyspnea. It is not related to any exacerbation.
He denied nausea, vomiting or diaphoresis, as well as abdominal
pain and dark or bloody stool. He endorsed subjective fevers and
chills, as well as some recent falls without head strikes. He
has difficulty ambulating around his house. He has been offered
case management and assisted living but will not go to a
facility. He had a visiting nurse who helps with his wound care
but this had desisted by the time of admission due to combative
interactions with the patient.
Of note, the patient was recently discharged from ___ on
___ for similar presentation including significant ulcers on
his anterior lower extremities which were attributed to venous
stasis. During that admission his torsemide was increased. In
addition, he was treated for a COPD exacerbation based on
imaging from CTA chest.
In the ED, initial vitals were: Pain 10, T 97.2, HR 68, BP
117/58, RR 20, O2 100% Nasal Cannula
Labs showed baseline hct, INR therapeutic, BNP at baseline
(800). Normal lactate.
Imaging showed: EKG showed no acute ischemia. A chest x-ray
showed persistent cardiomegaly. Mild pulmonary vascular
congestion. A CTA of the chest was performed to rule out PE,
with read pending at time of transfer.
The patient was given:
___ 14:38 PO OxyCODONE SR (OxyconTIN) 40 mg
___ 15:37 PO/NG Gabapentin 800 mg
___ 15:37 PO/NG ClonazePAM 2 mg
The patient desat'ed to 89% on 3L while ambulating. Given the
increased dyspnea and ambulatory desaturation, decision was made
to admit to medicine.
Transfer VS were pain 9, T 97.4, HR 62, BP 123/67, RR 14, O2
100% Nasal Cannula
On arrival to the floor, patient was confused and AAOx1. He was
still endorsing dyspnea and pain in his legs and back.

IMAGING
___ Imaging ABDOMEN US (COMPLETE ST
IMPRESSION:
No ascites. Limited evaluation of the liver, however no
morphological features of cirrhosis are identified. Doppler
evaluation of the liver is normal.
Venous collaterals in the abdominal wall are related to
occlusion of the inferior vena cava below the IVC filter.
___ Imaging CHEST (PA & LAT)
IMPRESSION:
Persistent cardiomegaly. Mild pulmonary vascular congestion.
___ Imaging CTA CHEST
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of acute pulmonary embolism or aortic
abnormality.
2. Cardiomegaly with mi pulmonary edema.
3. Moderate chronic small airways disease with mucous plugging,
particularly in the lower lobes, worse from ___. Areas of
more confluent opacity in the lower lobes suggest atypical
infection.
4. Dilated main pulmonary artery suggests sequelae of chronic
pulmonary hypertension.
5. Thickened esophageal wall suggests esophagitis.
6. Interval increased size of mediastinal lymph nodes which
could be reactive and related to esophagitis and current
infection. Close interval follow-up to ensure resolution.
7. Mild splenomegaly
___ Imaging CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST
IMPRESSION:
1. Study is mildly degraded by motion.
2. Within this limitation, no evidence of acute intracranial
hemorrhage.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with history of CAD s/p STEMI with BMS ___, recurrent
DVT/PE s/p IVC filter now thrombosed currently on Coumadin, HTN,
COPD on 2L home O2, PTSD/Depression/ASPD, chronic lower
extremity edema, polysubstance abuse and chronic pain
complicated by narcotics overdose presenting with worsening of
bilateral lower extremity edema and dyspnea.
ACTIVE DIAGNOSES:
#Community Acquired Pneumonia: Patient has been complaining of a
non-productive cough x3 days prior to admission. Also
complaining of subjective fevers/chills. CXR is notable to
vascular congestion but CTA showed possible infection and exam
initially showed hypoxia on room air in addition to diffuse
wheezing and rhonchi. No leukocytosis. Patient completed a 7-day
course of doxycyline ___. Azithromycin and ceftriaxone
were not chosen given prolonged QTc on methadone and penicillin
allergy, respectively.
#COPD exacerbation: Patient had increased dyspnea and cough,
though no increased sputum production. Patient has diffuse
wheezing and rhonchi on exam. Chest imaging as above. Initially
avoided prednisone and azithromycin given concern for volume
status and QTc prolongation, respectively. However, patient
continued to have significant wheezing on exam and was therefore
treated with a 5-day prednisone burst of 40mg QD from ___.
Exacerbating factors likey CHF exacerbation (see below) and
infection (see above). Patient received duonebs q6H and PRN
albuterol while in house. Of note, he only intermittently uses
his supplemental O2.
#Acute on Chronic Diastolic Heart Failure: Last LVEF from TTE
___ was 50%. BNP near baseline but patient has pitting edema on
exam in addition elevated JVP, dyspnea and mild vascular
congestion on CXR. Unclear if patient is compliant with
medications. Per OMR notes it states ___ notes patient is only
compliant with pain medications. Other exacerbating factors
include his previously mentioned pneumonia and COPD. Received
Lasix 40mg IV x2 with large urine output. Crackles and rhonchi
improved on exam in addition of decreased JVP from angle of jaw
to midneck. Patient then started on prednisone (see above) for
COPD exacerbation with increased JVP and crackles in addition to
even fluid balance and new hyponatremia and therefore was
rediuresed with 40IV Lasix x1. Volume status improved with
decreased JVP and crackles. His home furosemide dose was briefly
increased from 40mg to 60mg QD, though ultimately returned to
___ with respiratory improvement following steroids for COPD
exacerbation. Continued on metoprolol and atorvastatin.
#Lower extremity edema: Patient has known venous stasis changes
on his lower extremities requiring wound care and takes Lasix at
home. Review of OMR shows that patient was recently discharged
from home ___ care after being abusive to staff. Patient
does have a diagnosis of dCHF, last LVEF is 50%. BNP is at
baseline but has signs of volume overload on exam evidenced by
pitting edema and elevated JVP. Unclear if patient has been
compliant with medications. No signs of systemic infection. In
addition, patient has known IVC congestion from thrombosis of
IVC filter further evidenced by extensive collaterals on both
imaging and congestion of Periumbilical veins on exam. Discussed
with patient need for rehab and home services, though he was not
agreeable to this plan. Patient's legs were briefly elevated and
wrapped while in house. Diuresed as above.
#Toxic Infectious Encephalopathy: Resolved. Patient was AAOx1 on
initial exam. No obvious neurological deficits, but patient was
not entirely cooperative during evaluation. Patient has history
of recent falls though NCHCT negative for acute process/bleed.
INR is not supratherapeutic. Given caput medusa and ?h/o HCV
there would be concern for cirrhosis though LFTs and abdominal
ultrasound where not concerning for this diagnosis. Venous
collaterals from IVC congestion and have been noted on prior
exams. Mental status now improved s/p Lasix and antibiotics.
CHRONIC, INACTIVE DIAGNOSES:
#CAD s/p MI: s/p STEMI w/ BMS in LAD in ___, due to GI bleed
stopped plavix cont only aspirin. Currently no chest pain though
endorses intermittent, sharp chest pain for many weeks. EKG
shows no active ischemia. Continued ASA, metoprolol and
atorvastatin.
#History of DVT/PE: Patient has history of recurrent VTE s/p IVC
filter which has subsequently clotted. Currently on warfarin
with therapeutic INR. CTA was ordered in ED for dyspnea and was
negative for PE. Patient has impressive venous collaterals on
abdomen and back which have been documented prior, due to to IVC
congestion. Patient was continued on home warfarin dosing with
therapeutic INR.
#History of Hepatitis C: Patient reports h/o HCV though prior VL
negative and reports no history of treatment. Otherwise stable.
LFTs and ultrasound negative as above.
#History of opiate abuse/chronic pain: Patient currently on
methadone, oxycontin and gabapentin. Prior history of heroin use
and overdose. Will avoid increasing pain medications while in
house. Patient was discharged with narcan prescription.
Methadone dose was confirmed with provider.
Methadone Provider: ___ ___
Methadone dose confirmed as: 65 qAM and 10mg qPM
#BPH: stable on tamsulosin.
#Anxiety/Depression: stable
-cont clonazepam and duloxetine
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES

want to wait to have confirmed new service (fired from several,
others not in his insurance). Paperwork submitted to ___ home
visit as of ___. Will need outpatient follow up of status of
visiting nurse service
[]Will require regular INR checks and has means of transport to
a lab if ___ is not set up. Given his difficulty getting to
follow up, we talked about switching to Dabigatran. He initially
agreed so Warfarin was held 1 day and we called ___ to inform
them, though he then changed his mind. We left a voicemail and
emailed ___ that he would not be leaving their service but were
not able to get confirmation as it was a weekend. He is
scheduled for a ___ outpatient appointment including
INR check and we reiterated the importance of attending this
appointment. We also secured a ride via his insurance company.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you during your
hospitalization. You came to the hospital because you were
having difficulty breathing. You were found to have extra fluid
on your lungs, in addition to a pneumonia. We gave you an
antibiotic to treat your pneumonia in addition to Lasix to help
you remove your extra fluid and steroids to decrease the
inflammation. This made you feel better. We also wrapped and
elevated your legs to help improve their swelling.
We discussed the need for rehab in order for you to get your
strength back while in a safe, observed environment that would
be able to monitor your medical problems. You did not want to go
to rehab, so we worked to find a Visiting Nurse ___. The
case management team put in paperwork to set you up with ___
Home Visiting and we are awaiting approval of those services.
You preferred going home without services, so we arranged close
follow up with Healthcare Associates for ___. When you
see Dr. ___ on ___, please discuss having a
visiting nurse to help manage your symptoms and medications, and
to catch any changes in your health (like leg swelling) before
you get so sick that you need to come to the hospital.
Because you have heart failure it is important that you weigh
yourself every morning, call MD if weight goes up more than 3
lbs.
Your discharge appointments and follow up appointments are
detailed below.
We wish you the best!

IMAGING:
========
CHEST (PA & LAT) ___: AP upright and lateral views of the chest
provided. Cardiomegaly is unchanged and there is persistent
hilar engorgement. Mild pulmonary interstitial edema likely
present. No large effusion or pneumothorax. No convincing signs
of pneumonia. Mediastinal contour is unchanged. Bony structures
are intact.
ECG (___): Old anterior infarct, sinus bradycardia
RUQ US (___): 1. Limited evaluation of the left lobe of the
liver however, no focal lesions or parenchymal abnormalities are
seen. 2. Mild splenomegaly. 3. Normal biliary tree.
Abdominal xray (___): Nonspecific bowel gas pattern.
CXR (___): Pulmonary vascular congestion has improved, but there
is now mild interstitial edema. Mild cardiac enlargement is
stable. There is no pleural effusion. There are no focal
pulmonary abnormalities to suggest pneumonia and no appreciable
pleural effusion or evidence of pneumothorax.
EKG (___): Sinus bradycardia, old anteroseptal infarct, and no
STE/STD/TWI suggestive of ischemia.
EKG (___): NSR, QTc 408
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a medically complex ___ M h/o CAD, CHF, DVT on
couamdin, multiple recent admissions for dyspnea, difficulty
ambulating, who presented again with altered mental status,
dyspnea, diffuse abdominal pain, and difficulty ambulating, in
the setting of mild decompensated heart failure.
ACUTE MEDICAL PROBLEMS:
=======================
#Acute on chronic diastolic heart failure: On admission, based
on b/l pitting edema, worsening dyspnea, and pulmonary edema on
CXR, concern for mild decompensated heart failure. Ischemic
heart disease less likely in setting of negative troponin x1. Pt
takes meds at home and reports med compliance, but concern for
overall poor social situation suggest that med or diet
noncompliance are possible. Weight on last hospital discharge
was 108.9 kg. Weight on admission was 111 kg and he was given
Lasix IV until he reached his baseline weight, when he was
restarted on his home Lasix 40 mg PO. He was net negative on
this and he described an episode when he fell (see below), so
Lasix was held the following 3 days. He was sent home on 20 mg
Lasix PO ___ of his home dose).
#COPD exacerbation: On admission, patient's lung exam is
diffusely wheezy, suggesting mild COPD exacerbation as well.
Patient is satting well on home 2L O2 and does not report any
new cough or sputum production. It is possible that in the
setting of altered mental status, failure to thrive, he has not
been using his inhalers as prescribed. He was given prednisone
40 mg qd for 5 days, standing duonebs, and home tiotropium.
Initially, antibiotics were held to avoid QTc prolongation.
However, since is still complained of sputum production, he was
started on levofloxacin on ___ and his QTc was 408 on ___. He
completed this course on ___ (6 days).
#URI: Throughout his admission, he has been complaining of
increased mucus production, weakness, sore throat, and headache.
This was thought to be due to a common cold that could
exacerbate his underlying reactive airway. He was started on
fluticasone 2 puff BID and cepacol lozenges. He will go home
with fluticasone, nasal spray, and cepacol lozenges.
#Subacute Abdominal Pain: The patient has provided a very
unclear history about his abdominal pain, but he reports that
his abdomen has been distended and tender for one week, and he
reports that he has not been eating for one week as well. All
initial LFT's, lipase, CBC wnl, and his exam is only moderately
tender to palpation. His abdominal swelling is likely due to
mild CHF exacerbation causing abdominal swelling since he had no
ascites on ED US. He has caput medusa on exam and a history of
IVC filter thrombosis in the past. Unclear if this can
contribute to pain. RUQ US on ___ showed no focal lesions and
normal biliary tree and KUB showed no obstruction. He is no
longer complaining of abdominal pain.
#Altered mental status: Was somnolent on admission, but became
alert by the morning. Apparently due to psychiatric history he
has waxing/waning sensorium and has presented similarly to this
prior. Unclear the cause but so far metabolic workup negative,
infectious workup so far negative, no leukocytosis, no h/o liver
disease to suggest HE. He is on many sedating medications which
are likely to contribute. Initially held gabapentin, but was
restarted after two days due to complaints of leg pain. He was
continued on his pain regimen as stated below.
#Fall: On ___, had a fall while going to the bathroom. He does
not know what time this occurred, but denies LOC or hitting his
head. Denied palpitations or any neurologic deficits. He felt
graying out and then landed on his knees. He used the sink to
help himself up. He did not notify any nursing staff at this
time. No concern for neurological or cardiac abnormalities, but
given his diuresis (below his baseline weight by ___ kg) and
borderline low BP, hypovolemia is a possibility. Orthostatic VS
were normal. We held his Lasix 2 days after. ___ saw him and
recommended home with ___, but he has refused ___ in the past.
#Chest pain: He had chest pain in the ED with negative troponin
and an EKG not concerning for active ischemia. On ___, he also
complained of ___ sharp, nonpleuritic, left sternal chest pain
that was slightly tender to palpation. CXR showed improved
pulmonary vascular congestion, but interstitial edema and no
evidence to suggest PNA. EKG showed no evidence of active
ischemia. Low concern for PE (no increased oxygen requirement or
pleuritis), ACS (EKG at baseline without signs of active
ischemia), or intrapulmonary process (no evidence of PNA). Thus,
it is likely musculoskeletal pain or radiation from his
abdominal discomfort. This resolved on its own.
CHRONIC MEDICAL ISSUES:
=======================
#Frequent hospitalizations and noncompliance: This patient has
had multiple recent admissions. While he says he takes his
medications, he has multiple complex medical issues and it does
not seem like he can ___ for himself adequately. He claims he
does not have a ___, but past documentation has suggested that
he did, but he refuses working with them when they visit. He
also refuses to work with ___ and he has stated that he refuses
to see anyone in clinic other than Dr. ___ on ___. An
appointment was made for him at ___ on ___, but it
questionable if he will show up.
#Anemia: Patient has a history of anemia with baseline
hemoglobin in mid 7 to 8 range. Unclear reason for this in the
past. Iron studies suggest iron deficiency anemia (low ferritin,
high/normal TIBC). No evidence of bleeding and guaiac negative
stool
#Chronic Venous Stasis: Likely related to lymphedema from
recurrent DVT with minor component from ___. There were no
signs of acute infection. He denied any improvement in his leg
pain while hospitalized, but his baseline is difficult to assess
given his vague descriptions. He continued on his home
gabapentin and was given Lasix throughout his hospital stay with
significant improvement of his lower extremity edema. He never
had signs of bleeding or infection of his ulcers.
#CAD s/p STEMI with BMS to LAD: He was continue on his home
aspirin and atorvastatin.
#Chronic Hx PE/DVT: He was continued on his home warfarin and
did not require much adjustment throughout his hospital stay.
#Chronic pain: He was continued on his home methadone 65 mg and
10 mg qd as well as his home oxycodone SR 40 mg q8h. There were
several episodes when he accused nursing staff of not giving him
his medication, so two nurses had to give it and watch him take
it. For constipation, he was continued on his home bowel
regimen.
#HTN: He had borderline blood pressures during his hospital
stay, so his home metoprolol was held.
#HLD: He was continued on his home atorvastatin
#Depression/PTSD: He was continued on his home ClonazePAM 2 mg
PO TID and duloxetine
#BPH: He was continue on his home Tamsulosin 0.4 mg PO QHS
#GERD and history of GI bleeding: He was continued on his home
Omeprazole 20 mg PO DAILY
#Nutritional supplementation: He was continued on his home
folate and multivitamin
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
====================
-His home metoprolol tartrate 12.5 BID was held in the setting
of low BP. Consider restarting it if his BP starts to rise.
-His home Lasix 40 mg was cut to 20 mg in the setting of
borderline low BP.
-Compliance on his medications needs to be addressed, especially
with his Lasix.
-He may become a danger to himself due to noncompliance and
refusal of services.
-He conveyed some abuse-type behavior with his methadone while
in the hospital. Consider weaning as an outpatient.
-His weight on discharge was 106.8 kg (235.45 lb)
-He will follow-up with Dr. ___ on ___ at ___ at ___.

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a medically complex ___ M h/o CAD, HFpEF, DVT/PE
on coumadin, multiple admissions for dyspnea, difficulty
ambulating, who initially presented with chest pain, dyspnea,
and lower extremity edema.
# Acute on Chronic HFpEF: chief complaint of dyspnea and lower
extremity edema, likely secondary to medicine/diet
noncompliance. Troponin and EKG were not concerning for
ischemia. Was initially diuresed with IV lasix adequately and
transitioned to PO torsemide as he approached euvolemia. He was
discharged on torsemide 80 mg PO daily. His weight upon
discharge was 99.1 kg (standing). At this weight, he still had
pitting edema in his lower extremities but this was deemed not
able to be mobilized (creatinine rose with further diuresis
attempts) in setting of his known chronically occluded IVC
secondary to clotted IVC filter. Creatinine was 1.3 on day of
discharge. He will have labs checked on ___ and faxed to his
PCP.
# COPD: patient's home regimen included albuterol and and
tiotropium. Given his multiple admissions for dyspnea and PE
revealing diffuse wheezes, we increased his regimen to include
advair with adequate response. Patient was weaned down to room
air with oxygen saturation of 93-95% at rest. He uses 2L NC home
oxygen.
# H/O PE/DVT on coumadin: His home regimen of coumadin was
continued at discharge. He will need close follow up of his
warfarin dosing by his PCP ___ his INR trend. Labs
to be drawn on ___ and faxed to his PCP.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
===============
# GERD: no changes to home regimen
# DEPRESSION/PTSD: no changes to home regimen
# CAD S/P STEMI: no changes to home regimen
# CHRONIC VENOUS STASIS: no changes to home regimen
# CHRONIC PAIN: no changes to home regimen

IMAGING
=======
___ CXR:
1. Elevated pulmonary vascular congestion, with no frank
pulmonary edema. 2. Patchy opacity at the right lung base may
represent atelectasis or pneumonia.
___ CT Abdomen/Pelvis:
1. No acute process in the abdomen or pelvis. 2. Splenomegaly,
similar to prior. 3. Chronic occlusion of the IVC, with a filter
in place, and extensive venous collaterals.
___ CT C-spine:
No fracture or traumatic malalignment.
___ CT Head:
No fracture or intracranial process
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with past medical history of CAD, CHF (latest EF 45%
___, COPD on 2L oxygen at home intermittently, recurrent
blood clots on Warfarin iso non-adherence, DVT/PE with
thrombosed, irretrievable IVC filter, history of heroin abuse,
who presented with recent falls and right inguinal pain.
#Subtherapeutic INR: Patient with history of PE and clotted IVC
filter, presented with INR of 1.5. He was started on Lovenox
80mg BID on ___. His warfarin dose was increased to 3.5 mg
daily, and then 4mg daily so that his INR would be therapeutic.
Goal INR between ___ because of history of PE and known clotted
IVC filter. His INR was 1.9 on ___, so the Lovenox injections
were discontinued, and he was changed back to his home dose of
warfarin. His INR should be monitored closely.
# Falls: Patient with chronic falls that are well documented in
previous hospitalizations. Most likely mechanical. Use of
sedating meds like high dose narcotics is likely contributing.
Patient has refused rehab in the past three hospitalizations,
and then he re-presents to the hospital several days after
discharge. EKG unchanged, orthostatics negative. ___ recommends
rehab.
# Right inguinal pain, bulge: The patient presented with a
painful bulge in right inguinal area without clear hernia
palpated. CT abdomen/pelvis was negative for any abdominal
hernia. The bulge was attributed to increased collateral dilated
veins in the area, likely from occluded IVC. Non tender on exam.
#HCP: The patient does not have an HCP. The importance of
obtaining one was discussed with him. He is considering his
friend ___
# ___ edema, skin ulcerations: Consistent with previous
descriptions. No signs of infection on exam. The wound care team
was consulted, and the wounds were bandanged with ACE bandages
daily.
#Trouble urinating: On admission, the patient reported increased
trouble urinating. This was thought secondary to the high dose
of opiates that the patient was taking. Patient also reports a
history of BPH. UA unremarkable. CT scan shows L1 deformity
unchanged from before, so low concern for spinal etiology. He
was started on finasteride during this admission.
# CKD: Cr at recent baseline
# Anemia: Previous w/u c/w anemia of chronic disease. Hgb is 7
on admission and consistent with recent baseline.
CHRONIC ISSUES
==============
# Chronic diastolic heart failure: The patient presented
without evidence of volume overload on exam and CXR without
edema but with prominent vasculature and enlarged heart. He was
continued on home metoprolol and torsemide.
# CAD: Continued home metoprolol and aspirin.
# Chronic pain/Polysubstance abuse: Continue on home methadone,
gabapentin, clonazepam, and oxycontin. Consider weaning off
narcotics in the setting of falls.
# COPD: On ___ at home. Continued home albuterol sulfate,
tiotropium
# Hepatitis C: No history of treatment, no cirrhosis on prior
imaging but history of hepatic encephalopathy
# History of pulmonary embolism: continued home warfarin.
Lovenox bridge as discussed above because of sub-therapeutic INR
# Depression/Post-traumatic stress disorder: Continue
duloxetine and clonazepam.
# BPH: Continued home tamsulosin. Started finasteride during
this amission

had somewhat increased bleeding that morning in the setting of
therputic SQ lovenox. He did not undergo any further evaluation
for occult bleed. Lovenox was held. Given his hypotension and
some hypoxia he was evaluated and ruled out for MI per trops neg
X2 and TTE in the FICU showed LVEF 50-55 w/o WMA. He was
continued on IV vancomycin and resumed on his home torsamide
given intermittent ___ O2 requirement. PICC was placed and
CXR showed cleared lung fields. He remained afebrile and
antibiotics were not expanded. He did not require presors.
He was transferred back to the medical floor in stable condition
on ___. IV vanco held on ___. Continued management for
bleeding leg ulcers and had intermittent PRBC requirements for
low Hct. CT abd/pelvis non-con ___ did not show any other
obvious site of bleeding. Here are the following issues
addressed during his stay:
- Fever: single spike on admission thus far RLE only potential
source identified, ? portal for bacteremia though Bcx NTD.
Initially on IV Vanco + Levofloxacin, switched to IV ceftriaxone
+ PO Mtronidazole Subsequently as Bcx NTD and afebrile stopped
IV ceftriaxone + Flagyl (last doses ___ and continued IV
Vanco. IV vanco held on ___ after completion of 8 day course.
No further abx given blood cultures were negative and fevers
never recurred. The suspicion for cellulitis in his leg was low
from the outset
- Acute on Chronic Blood Loss Anemia: requiring 7 blood
transfusions on ___. Likely ___ to blood loss from bleeding RLE
wounds. CT abd/pelvis non-con ___ did not show any other
obvious site of bleeding. However does report some BRBPR and
very likely to have colonic varrices/hemmoroids. The degree of
anemia and PRBC requirement (10 units thus far during this
admission) suggested that beyond his legs wound there may be
another ongoing source of slow blood loss which is most likely
to be in his lower GI tract. He was reviewed by gastroenterology
consult who ultimately decided to do EGD/colonoscopy. Due to
the large fecal load, he required several days of preparation.
The EGD showed signs of linear erosion with oozing (endoclipped)
- and gastritis. Colonoscopy was unremarkable although could
not reach cecum. A CTC virtual colonography revealed no
suspicious lesions. For this bleed, Mr. ___ was placed on
PPI BID. HPYlori serologies and stool Ag were PENDING ON DC
but treatment is recommended if serology is POSITIVE.
- severe macerated stasis dermatitis of lower extremities:
bleeding skin lesions c/w acroangiodermatitis related to his
venous stasis. Warfarin and SQ lovenox continue to be held
given ongoing bleeding. SQ heparin was trialed and caused
significantly worsened bleeding and was held again on ___ with
subsequent improvement.
He was reviewed by dermatology and per their recs underwent
intensive wound care with vaseline impregnated gauze or Adaptic
covered by absorptive dressing covered by Kerlix as well as
compressive ACE raps and elevation for bilateral lower
extremities. Compression is considered to be the mainstay of
treatment for his underlying skin condition.
- Chronic VTE/Thrombosis/Embolism risk: discussed with
hematology consult and Vascular surgery given his high risk of
DVT and embolism in the setting of holding of anticoagulation
and an in-situ old IVC filter which is likely not protecting him
from PE anymore and can even serve as a nidus for a down stream
clot. Per vascular there are no available surgical interventions
for his venous stasis and the IVC filter can not be safely
removed. Hematology team agreed that anticoagulation be held
initially. After the gastric bleed was identified and treated,
Mr. ___ was placed back on anticoagulation with heparin gtt
sliding scale. He was stable for >48hrs on IV heparin and
warfarin was resumed with goal INR ___. On Discharge he is to
be transitioned to Lovenox ___ q12 as a bridge to warfarin
until INR >2. Please given Lovenox upon arrival to the facility
and dose from there. Please check INR again on ___.
- Hypotension: likely ___ to fluid shifts and unstable
intravascular volume due to bleeding and torsamide. These
responded to fluid boluses and PRBC transfusion and resolved
with holding of home torsamide and anticoagulation. His
torsemide was resumed on DC but his Lisinopril continues to be
HELD. This can be re-evaluated in the future
- Constipation: managed with agresive bowl regimen and enemas.
- ___. Bland UA except for elevated SG. resolved with IVF
- Elevated lactate, low BP's, ___: ? low circulating volume in
the setting of SIRS. resolved
- mild pulmonary congestion and hypoxia in the setting of being
off his home torsamide. resolved.
- long standing pancytopenia: B12, Folate, Ferritin checked
during this admission and not low.
- Known splenomegaly: no obvious cirrhosis on . Abdominal CT
___ showed splenomegaly. Liver was unremarkable. Stable
- h/o recurrent falls and poor functional status
- chronic pain syndrome/opiates: on MMT for years, but it
appears that ___ rehab is tapering him down; his dose was 60
mg daily which he tolerated well per rehab nursing and records.
Until ___, the patient was on oxycontin 40 mg TID for his
chronic pain. It appears that this has been stopped at some
point during his recent hospitalizations and rehab stays. Has
not visited his ___ clinic since ___. During this
admission he was ultimately placed on methadone 85 mg day for
his aute on chronic pain (leg and abdomen). No additional
opiates are needed otherwise at this baseline.
- HIS METHADONE IS CURRENTLY FOR CHRONIC PAIN AT THE DOSE
RECOMMENDED. Can wean as tolerated
- Social issues: Until recently, the patient has lived alone
where he is somewhat unsafe and often falls. He has frequent
hospitalizations, partially caused by failures of self-care for
his multiple chronic illnesses. However, he has fairly bad PTSD
and an independent spirit, so he likes being left alone and
usually refuses any rehab placements or skilled home care.
Recently he has been in ___ rehab. Patient has previously
declined to complete an HCP as he has no friends or relatives
involved in his care.
chronic:
-PTSD
- CAD s/p STEMI (w/BMS in LAD ___: on atorvastatin, BB and
warfarine. ASA 81 mg dropped off his med rec during a recent
hospitalization and was held given his severe bleeding.
- PLEASE RESUME ASPIRIN 81MG DAILY ONCE INR THERAPEUTIC IF NO
EVIDENCE OF FURTHER BLEEDING
- Chronic systolic CHF (echo ___ LVEDD 56, EF 45%, Mod MR + TR,
Mod PHTN) on lisonopril metoprolol and torsamide at home.
Asymtomatic during this admission.
HCV: Never treated. ? cirrhosis given his anemia,
thrombocytopenia and known splenomegaly, but imaging during this
admission did not show any findings in his liver suggestive of
cirrhosis.

Discharge Instructions:
Mr. ___,
you were admitted to ___ due to a febrile illness which may
have resulted from a skin infection. Your fever resolved with
antibiotic treatment.
You were also managed for the chronic skin condition on your
legs which was complicated by bleeding from your leg wounds as a
result of the high pressure and poor circulation in your veins.
This condition is a complication of blood clots and your IVC
filter. You will need continued management with careful wound
care and compressive dressings. Surgery is, unfortunately, not
an option.
You also were found to be anemic and received a total of nearly
10 units of RBC transfusion. To identify the source of the
bleed, you underwent endoscopic procedures (EGD and
colonoscopy). The EGD revealed bleeding in the stomach - this
was stopped using endoscopic procedures. Please continue with
the Prilosec to protect your stomach lining.
You will need to be on blood thinners indefinitely, given the
risk of clots. The Coumadin levels will need to be monitored at
your rehab.
We wish you the best of luck,
Your ___ Team

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ male with past medical history of DVT/PE,
chronic pain who presented s/p fall with orbital hematoma and
concern for ___.
# Hematoma of right eye - Currently improved significantly prior
to discharge. Seen by optho in the ED and underwent extensive
imaging. No interventions beyond supportive care indicated at
this time. According to ophtho recs: warm compresses for the
right upper eyelid; no specific recommendations regarding
coumadin, the hemorrhage appears to be confined to the
extraocular structures. Follow up with regular eye doctor upon
discharge within ___ weeks, earlier if any worsening vision or
double vision.
# Fall / Elevated CK / Concern for rhabdomyolysis - CK elevated
on admission after recent fall and now back to normal prior to
discharge. Restarted home torsemide and metoprolol on ___ given
recovery of Creatinine
# Supratherapeutic INR on admission went as high as 6.3 in the
setting of chronic anticoagulation therapy. Coumadin initially
held and restarted on ___. Despite large hematoma, no e/o
ongoing bleeding and thus was
not reversed. Continued Coumadin for INR goal ___.
# ___: Resolved. Admission Creatinine 1.7. Was likely pre-renal
and after fall. Discharge Creatinine was 0.8

well as wound care continued while hospitalized.
#Methadone use: During ___ admission to ___ he was taken
off oxycontin for pain and changed to methadone for pain. He
tells me that he has "pain everywhere" and that he was asked to
"leave" methadone clinics. Given that he was on methadone for
chronic pain he was discharged with a prescription for 80 mg a
day (was on 85 mg a day; dose reduced for ease of
administration)

vrs hemarthrosis due to fall.
# Anxiety: Continued on home dose of kconazepam 2 mg po tid.
No signs of sedation seen while taking this dose of clonazepam
# Emergency contact/HCP: Patient reports he has no emergency
contact. ___ in medical records according to patient is
a friend who passed away and he states he has no other family
members or friends to resort to. Refused to sign HCP inpatient
and will need to be re-evaluated.

Brief Hospital Course:
This is a ___ year old male with past medical history of CAD,
diastolic CHF, chronic hypoxic respiratory failure secondary to
COPD on 2L home O2, chronic VTE on Warfarin, opiate dependence
and chronic pain on methadone, anxiety, admitted ___ with
leg pain and hypoxia secondary to pneumonia, now status post
course of antibiotics with resolution of respiratory symptoms,
spontaneous improvement in leg pain without evidence of new
acute pathology, able to be discharged home with services.
# Acute on chronic hypoxic respiratory failure secondary to
acute bacterial pneumonia
# COPD
Patient initially was admitted for leg pain management, but
found to be febrile on admission to the floor. Initial source
of fever was unclear as CT Torso was without evidence of
infection, but subsequent chest xray subsequently demonstrated
a developing pneumonia. Patient initially on unasyn for broad
coverage given subsequent persistent fever and progressive
hypoxia with intermittent blood streaked sputum (thought to be
from pneumonia and anticoagulation as admission chest imaging
did not show other potential causes). Antibiotics were
transitioned to vancomycin and levaquin, with subsequent slow
improvement in respiratory status over several days. Slow
improvement felt to relate to his significant underlying lung
disease. He was able to be weaned to home RA to 2LNC and
completed an 8 day course of levofloxacin. Would repeat Chest
CT in ___ weeks to ensure resolution of pneumonia--could
consider repeating sooner if hemoptysis were to persist.
Continued tiotropium, nebulizers. Patient frequently declined
bronchodilators during this admission, occasionally resulting
in episodes of hypoxia that would then resolve with use of a
bronchodilator.
# R leg pain
# Chronic R lower extremity DVT
Presented for worsening bilateral leg pain. Patient was
evaluated by vascular surgery while in the emergency department
who noted no evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the imaged
portion of the right or left lower extremity veins based on
ultrasound of the lower extremities. Remainder of workup did
not reveal fracture or other serious acute process. Pain
improved with home pain medications and patient was able to
ambulate at time of discharge.
# ___ on CKD stage 3
Cr peaked at 1.6 following admission for above acute processes;
improved with holding home diuresis; restarted home diuresis
without issue;
# Home situation / Social supports
Of note patient was evaluated by ___ who recommended discharge
to rehab, however patient adamantly refused to go to rehab.
There was concern about sending patient home because he often
refuses services and often refuses help. Team and Psychiatry
evaluated patient; no inpatient mental health needs and patient
was able to demonstrate understanding of risks of discharge
home plan; he verbally contracted to allow home services into
his home. Social work contacted patient's landlord as well as
elder services to ensure safe plan in place, in addition to
work by case manager to optimize home services. Overall,
team's impression was of a patient with history of poor
decisions with respect to health and self-care, as well as a
difficult personality, but of a person who had capacity to make
these decisions. At future outpatient and/or inpatient visits
would continue to have ongoing dialogue about safest home
situation with periodic reassessments to ensure he maintains
the capacity to make these decisions.
# Acute metabolic encephalopathy
# Chronic Pain
# Opioid Use Disorder
# Anxiety
Hospital course was initially notable for patient's somnolence
which was felt to be a result of methadone, gabapentin and
clonazepam use in setting of his acute illness and ___. During
this time, gabapentin and Clonazepam were reduced with
subsequent improvement in mental status. They were
subsequently able to be returned to home dosing. Continued
patient's methadone, although patient frequently requested dose
increases, reporting ongoing craving and withdrawal symptoms.
See below transitional issues regarding recommendations from
psychiatry.
# Chronic diastolic CHF
# Coronary artery disease
Continued statin, metoprolol, torsemide
# GERD
Continued omeprazole
# Chronic lower extremity DVT
Patient continued on 2.5mg Warfarin with a goal INR of ___ for
management of DVTs.
# Urinary retention
Started tamsulosin for urinary retention this admission;
consider outpatient follow-up.
#Leukopenia:
Patient with a history of anemia and borderline leukopenia,
both at baseline this admission. A UPEP showed "MULTIPLE
PROTEIN BANDS SEEN, WITH ALBUMIN PREDOMINATING OLIGOCLONAL FREE
KAPPA LIGHT CHAIN NOTED ON IFE RECOMMEND REPEAT UPEP IN ___
WEEKS IF CLINICALLY INDICATED". Would consider this.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
===================================
- Discharged home with services
- As above, would consider ongoing dialog re: safest living
situation for him, as well as have periodic assessments of his
capacity to make these decisions.
- Would consider repeat UPEP within ___ weeks of discharge
- Warfarin was dosed 2.5mg with goal INR of ___. Continue
outpatient INR management
- Would consider repeat CT chest at ___ weeks to ensure
resolution of consolidation
- Given potential for respiratory depression and black box
warning re: coadministration, would consider
weaning/downtitration of opiate and benzodiazepine regimen as
outpatient; additionally, as per psychiatry consultation, given
that patient reports issues related to methadone cravings and
withdrawal, referral of patient to a ___ clinic for
opiate use disorder may be recommended;
Code Status: Full Code
HCP: Not designated - would consider asking patient to designate
one

IMAGING:
___ LENIS:
No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right or left lower
extremity
veins. Right common femoral AV fistula again noted.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ w/ PMH of CAD s/p STEMI, HFpEF (EF 50-55%), recurrent VTE
c/b chronic venous stasis ulcers (on Coumadin), occluded IVC
filter (since ___ opioid dependence on methadone, CAD s/p
stents, HFpEF, COPD on home O2, recent admission for ___ leg pain
felt to be due to venous stasis presenting again with worsening
bilateral leg pain.
DISCHARGE:
Patient was noted to be sedated on home regimen of methadone and
clonazepam. Clonazepam dose was reduced to prevent this.
On ___ patient escalated with aggressive behavior. Patient
walked down 7 flights of stairs to the basement, and would not
speak to resident or attending to assess capacity. Given
concerns of multiple outpatient providers as well as elder
services representative, this was deemed critical prior to
discharge. Code purple was called. Subsequently psychiatry
conducted capacity evaluation and determined he had capacity. He
was discharged without prescriptions.
# Bilateral Leg Pain
# Extensive Venostasis with superficial bleeding
# Chronic R lower extremity DVT
# Thrombosed IVC filter
Has had recent workup without acute process, chronic pain and
swelling, without evidence of new infection. Has known chronic
RLE DVT with IVC filter thrombosis. Given reports of increased
pain, assessed for growing clot burden in the setting of
subtherapeutic INR showed no DVT. It is unclear if this will
have treatment ramifications as he is not a candidate for
removal of IVC. He was given home methadone 80 mg daily,
gabapentin 800 TID, scheduled Tylenol, aggressive bowel regimen.
Wound care was consulted and he refused dressings and care by
nursing.
#Chronic Pain
#Opioid Use Disorder
#Anxiety
#PTSD
Reports of sedation on previous admissions, as well as requests
for escalating doses of methadone. Requested to transfer
methadone to clinic; reportedly patient has reached out to 2
clinics but they have not returned his calls. He was again noted
to be somnolent this admission. PRN dosing clonazepam at 1mg
TID, dose reduction from home with home methadone given.
Monitored on telemetry.
#Social supports/home living condition:
Of note patient was evaluated by ___ who recommended discharge to
rehab, however patient adamantly refused to go to rehab. During
last admission, psychiatry evaluated patient; no inpatient
mental health needs and patient was able to demonstrate
understanding of risks of discharge to home. Patient resistant
to psychiatric evaluation outpatient for PTSD as well. Case open
with Elder Services who was informed of admission and discharge.
Social work consulted and work appreciated.
#Urinary retention:
Complained of this on presentation; noted to be at risk of this
in setting of chronic high dose opiate use. Had no evidence of
this on this admission urinated well. No infectious cause, UA
unremarkable. Continued Tamsulosin.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
===============
# Chronic diastolic CHF EF 50-5%
# Coronary artery disease
Continued statin, metoprolol, torsemide. Not decompensated.
# COPD: On home O2 recent admission for COPD exacerbation, given
vancomycin and levofloxacin, completed antibiotics. Decreased
breath sounds at bases on exam, no focal findings. Of note,
patient was able to descend 7 flights of stairs without dyspnea
on day of discharge. Continued tiotropium and albuterol PRN.
# Chronic Anemia
# Pancytopenia
Stable at Hgb about ___. Previous anemia work up while inpatient
not indicative of iron deficiency or hemolysis. Has been
transfusion dependent in past.
# GERD
Continued omeprazole
Transitional Issues From prior discharge:
=========================================
- would consider ongoing dialog re: safest living situation for
him, as well as have periodic assessments of his
capacity to make these decisions.

History of Present Illness:
___ male with history of CAD S/p STEMI, recurrent VTE,
chronic pain on methadone, chronic bilateral leg swelling who
presents with diarrhea. The patient reports a few week history
of
diarrhea. Diarrhea is watery. Non-bloody and up to 20 episodes

Brief Hospital Course:
___ male with history of CAD s/p STEMI, recurrent VTE,
chronic pain on methadone, chronic bilateral leg swelling who
initially p/w diarrhea, which has since resolved. Found to have
an LV thrombus of unclear chronicity on imaging and is now s/p
Lovenox bridge to Coumadin. His course was complicated by acute
hypoxic and hypercarbic respiratory failure requiring FICU
transfer for BiPAP on ___, as well as intermittent
encephalopathy.
# ACUTE ON CHRONIC HYPOXIC AND HYPERCAPNIC RESPIRATORY FAILURE
# CENTRAL HYPOVENTILATION DUE TO SEDATING MEDICATIONS
# MODERATE PULMONARY ARTERY SYSTOLIC HYPERTENSION
# CONCERN FOR OSA
# COPD
Suspect acute hypoxia on ___ was due to a combination of central
hypoventilation from home methadone/klonopin/gabapentin with
possible aspiration and COPD exacerbation given wheezing and
productive cough. Pt required brief ICU stay and was started on
nocturnal BiPAP. TTE this admission showed interval worsening of
pHTN with now moderate pHTN and worsening TR and MR, which is
also likely contributing to his hypoxia and made worse by
possible underlying central hypoventilation. At baseline, pt at
2L nocturnal O2. While pt has been intermittently refusing his
torsemide, he does not have significant evidence of pulmonary
edema on CXR with lower BNP than prior and his hypoxia has
actually improved. This makes CHF exacerbation less likely. S/p
doxy for COPD flare. Initiated taper of patient's multiple
sedating medications. He will need a formal sleep evaluation
following discharge. He will also need outpatient follow up for
recent TTE findings with worsening PAH/MR/TR. prior to discharge
his clonazepam dose was reduced to 1 mg 3 times daily. On the
day of discharge the patient was not in respiratory distress and
he was satting well on room air.
# ACUTE ENCEPHALOPATHY: Pt with acute obtundation ___, about
___ hours after receiving multiple sedating medications. Mental
status improved with transient bipap and no other intervention.
Suspect the most likely cause of obtundation is his multiple
sedating medications and long term tapering is crucial to
optimize both his mental and respiratory status. Delirium
secondary to hospitalization and medications also likely
contributing. Mental status improved to baseline prior to
discharge.
The patient insistent to go home on several occations. We
explained that we had serious reservations about the safety of
going home given his deconditioning and multiple sedating
medications. While he disagreed with us about the severity of
the
risks of being discharged home, he does express a clear
understanding of the risks and of our degree of concern. He is
able to provide a cogent plan for what he will do after being
discharged, knew that he needed a chair car to get home, reports
access to money/food/shelter, and has close friends that he is
planning on staying with (he declined to provide me with their
contact information). We further discussed his elevated INR, and
he understood this and the risks associated with it, and was
able
to articulate how his warfarin/INR is managed at home and that
he
needed to look out for signs of bleeding without being prompted.
This suggests to us that he does understand fairly complex
medical issues and decisions. Given all of this, and the
psychiatric evaluation on ___ with similar conclusions, we
believe he does have the capacity to leave the hospital at this
time. He has PCP follow up the on ___ which he is aware of and
plans to follow through with. He stated he was able to call his
home ___ services to have the re-established after his
discharge. We will also contacted them in the morning. He was
able to get out of bed and ambulate using a cane with the RN
this afternoon prior to discharge.
# LV THROMBUS
# H/O DVT/PE
# CLOTTED IVC FILTER
Patient with history of clotted filter since at least ___.
Previously evaluated by vascular surgery who determined there
was no way to remove filter. CTA showing chronic LV apical
thrombus. TTE was suboptimal but did not show thrombus. The
patient follows with HCA ACMS but seems to be non-compliant with
INR checks. TTE with suboptimal quality though did not show any
LV thrombus. Given subtherapeutic INR on presentation, he was
treated with Lovenox bridge. However his INR was
supratherapeutic prior to discharge and warfarin was held. On
the day of discharge the patient declined blood tests and we
were not able to measure his INR on discharge or make warfarin
adjustments. Patient should follow-up with outpatient
anticoagulation provider for further titration of his warfarin
dose.
# CAD
# CHRONIC SYSTOLIC HEART FAILURE
Patient reports that he is not taking his torsemide as it makes
him urinate. Despite this, he appeared euvolemic on exam, and
BNP, while elevated, was improved from prior values. Pt endorsed
chronic heaviness in his chest; but serial cardiac enzymes and
ECG's were reassuring with only non-specific T wave changes on
ECG during trigger on ___ pm.
# CHRONIC PAIN / ANXIETY: Patient on high dose methadone,
gabapentin and clonazepam at home. Doses confirmed in OMR and
___ (last filled scripts on ___. Gabapentin and
clonazepam doses have been down titrated during this admission.
# MULTIPLE FALLS
# GOALS OF CARE
On previous admissions there has been concern that he is not
safe at home and ___ has recommended rehab which he refuses. PCP
has also been addressing alternative living situations with the
patient including ___ house. Pt has capacity to decline rehab
option (see above) and therefore based on his wishes he was
discharged home with ___ services.
# PASSIVE SI: Pt reportedly expressed a desire "to end it all"
early in hospitalization and would not further elaborate. Psych
consulted, felt this did not represent true SI after discussion
with pt (see psych consult note for details). Found no
psychiatric contraindication to discharge. Could consider
outpatient neuropsych evaluation.
# DIARRHEA: Resolved, with subsequent complaints of
constipation.
# CHRONIC SYSTOLIC HEART FAILURE
EF 50% on TTE this admission. Patient complained of dyspnea on
exertion and reports that he is not taking his torsemide as it
makes him urinate. Despite this, he appeared euvolemic on exam,
and BNP, while elevated, was improved from prior values. He
continued to refuse his torsemide intermittently while inpatient
but resrtarted prior to discharge.
# COPD: Patient reports he uses O2 at home at night. On
Albuterol and Spiriva.
# BPH: On tamusulosin
# Pancytopenia: Chronic issue. ? underlying MDS. ___. Will
need outpatient f/u.
Transitional issues
====================
The patient has worsening pulmonary hypertension, mitral
regurgitation, tricuspid regurgitation based on inpatient
transthoracic echo. Consider consulting with cardiology for
further workup.
Patient requires urgent evaluation with sleep medicine for
possible BiPAP/CPAP at home at night.
Patient was noted to have a thrombosed IVC with severe chronic
venous congestion of the lower extremities. Vascular surgery
was consulted and anticipated difficulty in removing the IVC
filter and no need for acute surgical intervention. Consider
referral to vascular surgery as an outpatient
due to supratherapeutic INR noted on the day prior to discharge
the patient did not receive warfarin on the day of the discharge
and 1 day prior to discharge. Please follow-up on INR levels
and dose warfarin accordingly.
Patient reportedly expressed desire to "end it all" early in
hospitalization. Consider outpatient neuropsychiatric
evaluation for SI.
On the day prior to discharge the patient had pancytopenia
which has been ___ for the last 5 days. Please repeat CBC in
1 week.
The patient has bibasilar atelectasis seen on chest x-ray from
___. Please repeat chest x-ray in 1 month to confirm
resolution of these findings.
The patient was discharged on his home metoprolol succinate
12.5 twice daily. Consider consolidating that to 25 mg once
daily for ease of administration.
We reduced his clonazepam dose to 1 mg 3 times daily and his
gabapentin dose to 600 3 times daily due to sedation effect
leading to respiratory failure. Please titrate these
medications as an outpatient.
We discharged the patient on naloxone nasal spray in case of
opiate overdose.
Would consider ongoing dialogue regarding the safest living
situation for him.
**Patient was seen and examined today prior to discharge. See
above regarding discharge despite our concerns. Greater than 30
minutes were spent on discharge planning and coordination.**

Discharge Instructions:
Dear. Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you at the ___.
You were admitted with diarrhea and a fall. Your diarrhea
improved. You were found to have a blood clot in your heart for
which you were started on Lovenox to help stabilize your blood
clot while your INR become therapeutic.
While you were here, you were also found to have difficulty with
your breathing and confusion with sedation. Because of this you
were started on a breathing mask and stayed a short duration in
the intensive care unit. Your difficulty breathing is likely due
to taking multiple sedating medications (gabapentin, klonapin,
methadone) and sleep apnea. Therefore, you were initiated on
Cpap and some of your medication doses were decreased for your
safety. We discharged you without the breathing mask and you
would need to follow up with the sleep medicine specialty clinic
early next week to have a sleep study. This sleep study will
help decide if you need a sleep mask at home.
We noted that your INR was higher than target on the day of
discharge. Therefore, we were holding you warfarin and you
should follow up with the ___ clinic on ___ for an INR
check and possibly restarting you warfarin.
Please follow up with your primary care provider on ___.
Please take you medications as prescribed.
It was a pleasure taking care of you at the ___. We wish you
all the best.

# Bilateral lower extremity venous stasis with ulceration,
history of recurrent DVT with known occluded IVC filter, on
Coumadin: Patient with bleeding ___ wound in ED without evidence
of infection (no leukocytosis, afebrile, no purulent drainage or
infectious symptoms). Wound care was consulted for further
management of wounds and recommended a daily regimen of:
applying Soothe and Cool to intact, dry skin, applying Melgisorb
AG to open areas, covering with large soft sorbsponge, wrapping
with Kerlex and securing with take. Warfarin originally DC'ed
due to active bleeding. it was restarted on ___. We have been
dosing it daily according to INR. Due to low INRs, we have
increased Warfarin dose to 7.5mg and kept him on lovenox bridge.
# Chest pain: Patient with chest pain and negative ___ and CTA
for PE. Troponins negative x 3, EKG without new ischemic
changes. Of note, CTA did reveal chronic LV apical infarct with
aneurysm and thrombus dating back to at least ___. His chest
pain is reproducible on exam, consistent with
MSK/costochondritis etiology. He was treated with home
gabapentin 800 mg PO TID, acetaminophen 650mg PO Q6H PRN,
lidocaine 5% patch QAM. Pain Management was consulted and
recommended gabapentin and standing Tylenol.
# Anemia, normocytic: Hgb 9.1 on admission, MCV 91. Work up
included: iron studies, B12 and folate, retic count notable for
low reticulocyte index (0.85), consistent with nutritional
deficiency. Iron studies, B12, folate were within normal limits.
Due to the patient's ongoing bleeding from leg wounds, Hgb was
monitored throughout the admission. Discharge Hgb 7.7.
# Hemoptysis: Patient with complaint of hemoptysis without clots
during this stay. Per chart review worked up at ___ in prior
admission in ___, thought to be due to anticoagulation in the

out on lovenox bridge. Discharge INR 1.5. Please follow up INR
at appointment on ___ and adjust at your discretion.
[] Held metoprolol succinate at discharge because SBPs 90-100s
off this medication, please restart as able.
[] Gave him two days of methadone 85mg (total 170mg) until
follow up appointment with PCP
[] ___ consider switch to DOAC as outpatient
[] We arranged for visiting nursing for further wound
management.
[] At the PCP's discretion, consider splitting methadone dose
into 3 times daily or 4 times daily to optimize analgesic
effects, if the primary intention of the methadone is for pain
(vs. substance abuse)
[] On CTA chest, patient noted to have prominent main pulmonary
artery. On admission, breathing is at baseline, on 2L O2 by NC
(same O2 requirement as at home). Further workup can be
considered as an outpatient if persists.

Dear Mr. ___,
You were admitted to ___ for chest pain and lower extremity
wounds.
While you were here, we did multiple studies to investigate the
cause of your chest pain. Reassuringly, your EKG was normal and
you did not have any labs to suggest injury to your heart
muscle. A CTA of your chest was performed and did not show any
evidence of clot in your lungs. At this time, we suspect that
your chest pain is possibly musculoskeletal in nature.
For your lower extremity wounds, we asked our wound care nurses
to come see you and make recommendations for wound management.
Please take care, we wish you the best!
Sincerely,
Your ___ Care Team

history of atraumatic subdural hematoma with craniotomy (___)
who presents with bilateral lower extremity weakness and
swelling and multiple falls at home.
ACUTE ISSUES:
=============
# Multiple falls
Patient reports multiple falls over past few weeks (ambulates
with cane), most recently this morning ___, with multiple head
strikes but no loss of consciousness. Unclear etiology though
ddx includes: orthostatic hypotension (poor po intake + on
tamsulosin) vs. arrhythmia (h/o CAD) vs. ?seizure activity (per
pt, h/o of this in the past) vs. mechanical vs. sedating
medications (methadone, clonazepam, gabapentin). He refused to
have orthostatics obtained multiple times and initially refused
to work with ___ however, later was amenable with working with
___ after a long discussion. He was extremly defensive about
discontinuing or lowering the dose of multiple sedating
medications he is currently taking, so these were continued.
Overall feel that falls most likely secondary to deconditioning
with contribution from his multiple sedating medications.
#Leukopenia
#Anemia
#Thrombocytopenia
Has had low counts in the past since ___, though this will
fluctuate. Last HIV ___ negative. No known h/o MDS. On ___,
pt agreed to checking HIV again. He denied any recent illicit
drug use or sexual activity in the past year; however, he
refused to discuss further and clarify. HIV screen was negative.
# Inappropriate behavior
# Agitation
Pt refused to work with physical therapy and repeatedly refused
attempts to work with providers in working up the etiology for
his falls (e.g., lowering the dose of sedating meds, working
with ___. On one occasion, he was inappropriate with staff
members, threatening to sue providers for fictitious reasons
(e.g., providers are threatening pt), and throwing medication
wrappers at nursing staff while calling them inappropriate
names. ___ was not called by nursing, and pt was thereafter
slightly more willing to cooperate with staff.
==============
CHRONIC ISSUES
==============
# Bilateral lower extremity wounds
# Lower extremity lymphedema
Chronic lymphedema from chronic thrombosis of IVC distal to
renal veins. Wound care was consulted.
# Chronic HFrEF (EF 45% on ___
ProBNP 3940 on admission, though appears euvolemic. Unclear dry
weight due to refusal of standing weights last admission,
although perhaps ~199 lbs, admission weight 216 lbs. Continued
home torsemide 20mg qd.
# COPD
Per patient, his home oxygen saturation drops to 81-84% with
ambulation if he does not use his home oxygen. SpO2 wnl on RA;
however, patient repeatedly demanded being able to use oxygen
despite SpO2 being >92% on RA. Continued home Tiotropium Bromide
1 CAP IH DAILY, Albuterol Inhaler 2 PUFF IH Q4H:PRN wheezing.
# History multiple DVTs and PEs
# Thrombosed IVC filter
# History of atraumatic subdural hematoma s/p craniotomy
(___)
# History of supratherapeutic INR
Patient was admitted to ___ ___ and
underwent craniotomy for atraumatic subdural hematoma. During
previous hospitalization, neurosurgery was consulted for
recommendations regarding restarting the patient's home
warfarin, and recommended restarting anticoagulation, so he was
bridged to warfarin and at the time of discharge was receiving
2.5mg daily for goal INR 2.0-3.0 for chronic bilateral iliac
vein occlusions and recurrent DVT prophylaxis. He was admitted
twice to ___ earlier in ___ for supratherapeutic INR (see
HPI). Per patient, he was supposed to be alternating 4 and 5 mg,
but missed his last two days. His INR on admission was 2.8.
Continued daily warfarin dosing.
# History of IV heroin use, in remission on methadone
# Chronic pain
During previous admission ___, patient's home 90 mg of
methadone was fractionated to 30 TID after period of somnolence
and decreased respiratory rate with concern for patient taking
his own methadone in addition to hospital prescribed. Patient
was
initially upset about this transition, but was content when
methadone changed from liquid to pill form. Due to concern from
previous hospitalization, patient's belongings were searched by
nursing on arrival, and his empty methadone bottle (as well as
cigarettes and lighters) were put into safe-keeping. Continued
home methadone 30 mg tablet TID, Gabapentin 800 mg PO/NG TID.

IMAGING
==========================================
CXR ON ___:
FINDINGS:
The lungs are clear without consolidation, effusion, or edema.
Cardiomediastinal silhouette is within normal limits. No acute
osseous
abnormalities. Curvilinear lucency below the left hemidiaphragm
is compatible With gastric air bubble with compression due to
adjacent pancreatic cyst.
CT ABDOMEN/PELVIS ON ___:
PERTINENT FINDINGS:
HEPATOBILIARY: The liver is normal in size and attenuation.
There is mild, mostly central intrahepatic biliary ductal
dilatation. There is partially occlusive thrombus within the
extrahepatic portal vein (02:34). The intrahepatic portal vein
and its branches are widely patent. There are numerous
calcified gallstones within a decompressed gallbladder.
SPLEEN: The spleen is normal in size and enhancement.
PANCREAS: The patient is status post recent episode of
pancreatitis after
ERCP. Arising from the pancreatic body and tail is a 9.6 x 11.2
x 12.4 cm
fluid collection. This collection exerts mass effect displaces
the stomach anteriorly and narrows the portal vein at the level
of portal confluence. An additional smaller fluid collection in
the area of the pancreatic tail inferiorly measures 1.3 x 3.0 cm
(02:43). Finally, a collection is identified within the
pancreatic head measuring 0.8 x 2.3 cm.
Of note, the pancreatic head and uncinate process are well seen
and the
pancreatic body and tail are largely compressed by the
peripancreatic fluid collection. However, the pancreatic body
and tail enhance normally and there is no definite evidence of
pancreatic necrosis.
GASTROINTESTINAL: There is no bowel obstruction. Colon is
within normal
limits.
VASCULAR: The aorta is normal in caliber. Again there is a
small, partially occlusive thrombus involving the extrahepatic
main portal vein just distal to the portal/SMV confluence.
Splenic vein is not visualized suggesting thrombosis.
Additionally, a dilated collateral vein adjacent to the greater
curvature of the stomach along the anterior abdominal wall is
identified.
IMPRESSION:
1. 12.4 cm fluid collection arising from the pancreatic body and
tail within the lesser sac which exerts mass effect upon
adjacent structures and displaces the stomach anteriorly.
Additional smaller peripancreatic collections as described
above. These collections are most consistent with pseudocysts.
The pancreatic parenchyma enhances normally and there is no
definite evidence of necrosis.
2. Mild, mostly central intrahepatic ductal dilatation.
3. Small, partially occlusive thrombus within the main portal
vein, just
distal to the portal/SMV confluence. Thrombus formation is
likely related to mass effect by the large adjacent pancreatic
pseudocyst. The intrahepatic portal vein and its branches are
patent. Splenic vein is not visualized.
4. No bowel obstruction. No free air.
5. Cholelithiasis without evidence of cholecystitis.
CXR ON ___
IMPRESSION:
New left basal opacity is concerning for pneumonia.
MRCP ON ___
IMPRESSION:
1. Arising anteriorly from the body and tail of the pancreas
there is a
multiloculated thick walled 13 x 13 x 10 cm fluid collection
which extends
into the lesser sac and abuts the posterior aspect of the
stomach compressing the stomach anteriorly, it also extends into
the left anterior pararenal space. There is some debris noted
at the dependent aspect of the collection consistent with mildly
complex walled off necrosis.
In the pancreatic head there is a 1.1 x 1.4 cm fluid collection
with some
debris in it. This is also consistent with focal walled off
necrosis.
2. Large pancreatic walled off necrosis exerts mass effect on
the SMV at the confluence with the main portal vain with a small
amount of intraluminal thrombus at the confluence which is less
conspicuous when compared to prior CT. Apparent splenic vein
occlusion.
3. Bilateral mild striated nephrograms are noted. This may be
due to
medication causing ATN. There is no infarct, perinephric
abnormality, or
renal mass.
4. Gallbladder is contracted around numerous gallstones. No
evidence of acute cholecystitis. No choledocholithiasis.
EGD (___):
Normal mucosa in the whole esophagus
Normal mucosa in the whole stomach
The previously placed NJ tube was noted in the stomach with the
tip of the tube passed the pylorus into the small intestine.
EUS was performed using a linear echoendoscope at ___ MHz
frequency:
A large 16 cm X 12 cm complex fluid collection consistent with
WOPN was noted in the body/tail of the pancreas. The largest
portion of the pancreatic collection was identified in the
proximal gastric body and thus this was the location selected
for puncture. Color doppler was used to determine an avascular
path for Axios stent deployment. Electrocautery enhanced Axios
was performed creating a tract between the gastric wall and the
pseudocyst.
Under EUS imaging the axios stent was deployed successfully. A
straight-tip 0.035 in x ___ cm Jagwire was introduced through
the axios stent under fluoroscopic guidance. The cystgastrostomy
tract was dilated with a CRE ballon up to 12 mm. After stent
deployment a large amount of fluid and debris were seen coming
out of the necrotic collection. Approximately 1,250 mL were
removed. No evidence of bleeding post procedure was noted.
Brief Hospital Course:
=============================================
BRIEF HOSPITAL COURSE
=============================================
Ms ___ is a ___ with hx of recent post-ERCP pancreatitis
(discharged from ___ ___, who presented to
___ on ___ with 2 days of abdominal pain and inability to
tolerate PO intake and mild nausea and vomiting. She had
returned home just recently from ___ on ___ where
she had been treated with IV antibiotics and had been on TPN for
post-ERCP pancreatitis. ERCP had been done because of concern
for choledocholithiasis.
# PANCREATIC PSEUDOCYST: On admission on ___, imaging was
notable for 12.4 cm fluid collection arising from the pancreatic
body and tail within the lesser sac which exerted mass effect
upon adjacent structures and displaces the stomach anteriorly.
This was most consistent with pseudocyst. The cyst had increased
in size by 6 cm since a CT abdomen/pelvis at an outside hospital
in early ___. There was mild, mostly central intrahepatic ductal
dilatation. The ERCP team was consulted and an NJ tube was
placed endoscopically on ___ and enteral nutrition was started,
given an albumin of 2.7 and concern for poor PO intake over the
last few weeks. Pain was managed with IV Dilaudid initially, and
she received IVF and electrolyte repletion. On ___, MRCP showed
a multiloculated thick walled 13 x 13 x 10 cm cyst with walled
off necrosis. A PICC line was placed in the evening of ___
given poor PIV access, need to administer IV antibiotics, and
concern for secure access prior to drainage of the pseudo-cyst.
On ___, she underwent and EGD with EUS and pancreatic
pseudocyst drainage via Axios stent placement. Approximately
1,250 mL were removed. There was no e/o bleeding or other
complications. Post-operatively, advancement of diet to clear
liquids, full liquids, and then a regular low-fat was
well-tolerated without abdominal pain. On ___, the NJ tube was
removed. On day of discharge, patient had been tolerating PO
intake for >48 hours and abdominal pain was controlled with
Tylenol alone. At the request of the ERCP team she will complete
a total of 7 days of post-procedure antibiotics which will be
done with ciprofloxacin (last day = ___.
# PORTAL VEIN THROMBUS: A small, partially occlusive thrombus
was also identified within the main portal vein, just distal to
the portal/SMV confluence. Thrombus formation is likely related
to mass effect by the large adjacent pancreatic pseudocyst. The
intrahepatic portal vein and its branches were patent. Splenic
vein was not visualized. There was cholelithiasis without
evidence of cholecystitis. Patient was treated with a heparin
drip upon admission. Heparin gtt was stopped prior to and
following the pseudocyst drainage procedure on ___ given ERCP
team's concern for her being at very high risk of bleeding if
therapeutically anticoagulated. Hematology was consulted who
recommended full dose anticoagulation for her multiple venous
thrombi, however the ERCP team felt that the risk of bleeding
outweighed the benefits, especially since decompression of the
pseudocyst should restore normal venous return decreasing her
propensity to form additional clot. After multidisciplinary
discussion, a decision was reached regarding anticoagulation:
she will remain on Lovenox 40 mg daily, beginning on ___ and
ending on ___ (i.e. hold ___ and ___ dose) prior to her
repeat endoscopy with Dr. ___ on ___. Further decision
regarding ongoing anticoagulation to be made by Dr. ___
(___) and Dr. ___ in follow up.
# PNEUMONIA: On ___, the patient triggered for chest pain, back
pain, tachycardia to 130s-140s, hypoxia to 85 RA, placed on 2L.
EKG showed sinus tachycardia. The abdominal exam was unchanged,
with no peritoneal signs. Her lungs were clear, though WBC was
18k. CXR was suggestive of pneumonia, and the patient was
started on vancomycin and Zosyn, with improvement in O2 sats.
She remained afebrile throughout. She was treated for a total of
6 days of antibiotics (course abbreviated due to drug reaction -
alternative agent deferred due to clinical resolution).
# DRUG REACTION TO ZOSYN: On ___ the patient noted itchiness
and the appearance of hives, which acutely worsened during
pre-operative infusion of Zosyn (day 6 of treatment for
pneumonia, described above). She received Benadryl and
dexamethasone, Zosyn was discontinued. The hives improved until
the morning of ___, when the pruritus and hives worsened,
appearing on her legs, abdomen, face, and arms. She was treated
with IV Benadryl, IV solumedrol, cetirizine, and famotidine, and
her symptoms resolved. Zosyn was added as a drug allergy in the
___ OMR.
# LFT ABNORMALITIES: Low grade Alkaline Phosphatase and ALT
elevation (without AST elevation) into 300s and ___ respectively
on admission. This downtrended to nadir on ___, but then began
to increase again. ALT/AST/AlkPhos/TBili on discharge were
85/67/383/0.2. Etiology for this is not clear but may include
residual effect of drug reaction (see above) or significant
intra-abdominal process (although this is improving by all other
metrics). No abdominal pain or tenderness (markedly different
from admission). Plan is to repeat labs at follow up with Dr.
___.
# CHOLELITHIASIS: inciting event for abdominal pain and workup
at OSH in ___, leading to gallstone pancreatitis, ERCP at
OSH, and then pancreatic pseudocyst. Gallstones noted again in
imaging at ___. Will need cholecystectomy when recovered from
EGD.
# ANEMIA: improved since ___, with iron studies demonstrating
effects from chronic inflammation.
=============================================

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the hospital with abdominal pain, following
treatment for pancreatitis at an outside hospital. On admission,
you were found to have a 14cm pancreatic pseudocyst (collection
of fluid). The pancreatic pseudocyst was drained with surgery,
and 1.5 liters of fluid were removed from the cyst.
There was also a blood clot that was partially blocking one of
the veins supplying blood to your liver, as well as a clot in a
vein near the spleen. The blood clot was treated with blood
thinners. Due to increased bleeding risk after your pancreatic
pseudocyst drainage, you cannot tolerate the full dose of blood
thinning medication so we have prescribed a lower dose for you.
You will take Lovenox 40 mg daily. Please DO NOT take this
medication on ___ or ___. The need for this medication will
then be reassessed when you see Dr. ___ for repeat
endoscopy/procedure on ___.
While you were here, you developed an allergic reaction to an
antibiotic called "Zosyn" (also called
"piperacillin-tazobactam"). You developed itchy red hives on
your legs, arms, face, and abdomen. The antibiotic was
discontinued, you were treated with Benadryl and steroids, and
the rash resolved. You should NOT receive this medication in the
future.
You also have gallstones. Take care to avoid fatty foods as
these can worsen gallstone pain.
It has been a pleasure to be involved in your care!

Radiology
==================================
femur xray
FINDINGS:
Frontal views of the pelvis with frontal and cross-table lateral
views of the
right hip and AP and lateral views of the distal right femur.
There is a lucency through the cortex of the lateral greater
trochanter
compatible with an acute fracture. Extent of this fracture is
uncertain,
whether it is isolated to the greater trochanter or extends
through the
femoral neck. The bones are osteopenic. No other fractures
visualized.
Pubic symphysis and SI joints are unremarkable. Vascular stent
projects over
the right iliac region. Vascular calcifications are identified.
Distally,
the femur is unremarkable
IMPRESSION:
Lucency through the right greater trochanter worrisome for acute
fracture.
The extent of this fracture is uncertain, whether it is isolated
to the
trochanter or involves the femoral neck.
CT head
FINDINGS:
There is no evidence of acute intracranial hemorrhage, diffuse
edema, or shift
of normally midline structures. Hypodensity in the right
parietal region near
the vertex with trace internal hyperdensity corresponds to the
patient's known
cerebral metastasis seen on prior MR of ___. Cerebellar
lesions are
better assessed on the prior MR. ___ periventricular ___
matter
hypodensities are compatible with sequelae of mild chronic
microvascular
ischemic disease. The gray-white matter interface is preserved
without
evidence of acute major vascular territorial infarct. The
ventricles and
sulci are slightly prominent but normal in configuration,
compatible with age
related parenchymal volume loss. Vascular calcification of the
bilateral
carotid siphons and vertebral arteries is incidentally noted.
The orbits and
globes are intact. There is trace fluid in the left sphenoid
sinus. The
remainder of the imaged paranasal sinuses, middle ear cavities
and mastoid air
cells are clear bilaterally. The bony calvaria appear intact.
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of acute intracranial process.
2. Evidence of mild chronic microvascular ischemic disease and
atrophy.
3. Right parietal hypodensity corresponds to known cerebral
metastasis seen
on prior MR. ___ lesions are better seen by MRI.
CT pelvis
FINDINGS:
CT PELVIS: There is diffuse atherosclerotic disease at the
iliac vessels
bilaterally. The right external iliac artery contains a stent.
There is
severe atherosclerosis at the left common iliac artery with
proximal ectasia
measuring 1.6 x 1.4 cm (2:12). The urinary bladder, prostate,
seminal
vesicles and rectum are within normal limits. Diffuse
diverticulosis is seen
in the sigmoid colon and distal descending colon. Trace
mesenteric fluid is
seen along the left paracolic gutter. No free pelvic fluid or
inguinal/pelvic
lymphadenopathy is detected.
OSSEOUS STRUCTURES AND SOFT TISSUES: A small fat-containing
right inguinal
hernia is incidentally noted. There is no soft tissue hematoma.
There is an acute fracture of the right greater trochanter
without significant
distraction of the fracture fragment. There is no extension of
the fracture
line into the femoral neck. No additional fracture is detected.
There is
evidence of mild degenerative change in the right
femoroacetabular joint with
joint space narrowing, endplate sclerosis and peripheral
osteophyte formation.
Irregularity of the pubic symphysis is likely degenerative.
There is no pubic
symphysis diastasis or widening of either sacroiliac joint.
Facet joint
arthropathy is noted in the imaged lower lumbar spine.
IMPRESSION:
1. Acute fracture of the right greater trochanter without
significant
distraction of the fracture fragment. No fracture involvement
of the femoral
neck.
2. Colonic diverticulosis without evidence of diverticulitis.
3. Severe atherosclerotic disease with left common iliac artery
ectasia
measuring 1.6 cm.
CXR
FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, there is no
relevant
change. Elevation of the right hemidiaphragm, caused by
slightly distended
right bowel loops. Atelectasis at the right lung bases and mild
parenchymal
opacities in the lateral parts of the right upper lobe base.
These have not
substantially changed as compared to the prior image. Moderate
cardiomegaly
with moderate tortuosity of the thoracic aorta. No pleural
effusions.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with a history of coronary disease, hypertension, peripheral
vascular disease, metastatic lung cancer with metastases to the
brain, who presented to the ED after a fall. He had hip pain and
on workup he was found to have a nondisplaced R trochanter
fracture. He was seen by orthopedics and the recommendation was
for nonoperative management. He was cleared to work with ___ and
was able to ambulate with a walker. He received oral oxycodone
for pain with good relief and will be discharged home with a
script for percocet. Upon talking with his wife, the patient had
fallen several times on the day of admission (the patient
himself reported he only fell once after he slipped) and had
altered mental status "like a TIA" (wife is a nurse here). We
discussed that multiple falls certainly brings up the concern
that he may be having coordination issues related to his
cerebellar mets, and as such he would continue to be at risk of
fall going forward. The patient had met with Dr. ___
week prior and had refused any treatment for his cancer,
including whole brain radiation or chemotherapy. We again
discussed the risks/benefits of getting treatment versus not
getting any treatment, and asked radiation oncology to visit
with him here to provide further details. The patient says he
will think about it, but is not interested in starting any
treatment now because he needs to get home to supervise his
marinated mushroom business. I urged him to come to a decision
within 1 week, as any benefit he might derive from treatment
will likely diminish as his disease progresses and causes
symptoms. There was some concern about competency, but he was
able to understand and repeat back key points of our
conversations, including the following day. He will touch base
with radiation oncology next week and with Dr. ___ as
needed based on his decisions regarding chemotherapy. For now
his wife will arrange for 24 hour care at home until he is able
to function safely and independently. He was offered home
nursing or ___ services but says he doesn't want them.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you during your stay at ___
___. You were admitted for a broken hip
after you fell at home. The bone is still aligned and you were
seen by an orthopedic surgeon who recommended that you do not
need surgery. Your pain has been well controlled with oxycodone
pills and you will be given a prescription for pain medications
at home. While you were here we discussed that your fall may
have been due to cancer metastases to your brain. We discussed
that getting radiation to your brain may help control these
metastases and help prevent new ones. You met with the radiation
oncologist. You indicated that you are not ready to start yet,
that you would like to go home and think about it. I recommended
that you do not delay this decision more than 1 week.
At home, you should only get up with help and with your walker.
Good luck, Merry Christmas, and happy birthday!

Brief Hospital Course:
___ with h/o DM2, HL, HTN, GERD, Parkinsons presents with
thoracic back pain and weight loss, as well as abdominal pain.
Active issues:
# Abdominal pain/back pain: LLQ abdominal pain with thoracic
back pain. Could be two separate etiologies or could be related.
Etiologies at this point unclear--CT abd/pelvis, ___, MRI
spine, and barium swallow all unremarkable. Most likely
diagnosis at this point is pain relating to depressed mood.
Although she is still having pain, her pain seems to be
manageable with PO pain medications and many of the most
worrisome diagnoses at this point have been ruled out. We
recommned she continue her work up with her PCP.
#UTI : The patient had 3 urine cultures that grew alpha
hemolytic colonies consistent with alpha streptococcus or
Lactobacillus sp. She was started on bactrim DS for 7 days, to
be finished on ___.
#Urinary retenion: Etiology unclear--likely related to UTI vs.
diabetic neuropathy. Had foley in place during most of admission
but was able to voluntarily void at discharge.
#Dysphagia/anorexia: Etiology unclear. Barium swallow and EGD
unremarkable. Possibly related to mood vs. GERD. Pathology
results of stomach biopsies are still pending. The patient had
limited PO intake at discharge but was able to tolerate some
solid foods and ensure.
#Hyponatremia: The patient was hyponatremic with sodium of 128
during admission. The hyponatremia was likely caused by HCTZ and
poor Po intake. It resolved with cessation of HCTZ and IVF.
Chronic issues:
# DM2: Her blood sugars were well controlled during admission.
She was restarted on her home metformin at discharge.
# HL: No active issues. We continued her statin during the
admission.
# GERD: No active issues. We continued her omeprazole.
# Parkinsons: No active issues. We continued her sinemet TID

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to ___ for evaluation of abdominal and back
pain. You had several imaging studies to evaluate your pain. A
CT of your abdomen showed diverticulosis and an enlarged
bladder, but was otherwise unremarkable. An upper endoscopy and
colonoscopy did not show anything that would be causing your
pain. An MRI of your thoracic spine was completed which was
also unremarkable. At this point we do not know what is causing
your pain. Continue Tylenol and flexeril for your back pain.
You also were having difficulty swallowing. We completed a
barium swallow study that examined your esophagus. It showed a
small diverticulum in the distal esophagus that is likely not
significant. We encourage you to try to eat and drink as
tolerated.
You also developed urinary retention during the admission, which
caused the bladder to be enlarged on CT scan. You had a foley
catheter in for a while to relieve the retention. However, by
discharge you were able to void without difficulty. You were
found to have a urinary tract infection, which may have
contributed to the urinary retention. You will be on bactrim
until ___.
Please follow up with your primary care physician for further
evaluation and management of these issues.

IMAGING:
=============
___ RUQ U/s IMPRESSION:
1. Numerous hepatic masses as described. Given that these are
new since theexaminations from ___, recommend multiphasic MRI
if possible, or
alternatively a multiphasic CT for further assistance. The
peripancreatic lesion and IVC filling defect can be evaluated at
the same time.
2. Moderate right-sided pleural effusion.
___ CT Chest w/ con IMPRESSION:
1. Large right pleural effusion with bilateral pulmonary,
pleural and osseous metastatic disease.
2. Abdominal findings reported separately.
___ CT Abdomen & Pelvis w/ and w/o con IMPRESSION:
-Large irregular hypodense pancreatic body/tail lesion, as
detailed above, concerning for pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The
mass appears to invade the splenic vein, surrounds the SMA and
celiac arterial branches, and also invades the left adrenal
gland. Soft tissue extends to the porta hepatis, with narrowing
of the main portal vein, which maintains patency.
-Metastatic disease throughout the liver, bones and visualized
portion of the lower chest.
-Thrombus within the infrarenal IVC, enhancing, likely tumor
thrombus. Additional thrombus is visualized within the cephalad
right saphenous vein into the common femoral vein.
-Mural thickening and mucosal hyperenhancement of the cecum.
Findings may be related to upstream venous congestion from
neoplastic burden as noted above.
___ U/S Liver Biopsy IMPRESSION:
Uncomplicated 18-gauge targeted liver biopsy x 2, with specimen
sent to pathology.
PATHOLOGY:
=============
___ LIVER BIOPSY PATHOLOGIC DIAGNOSIS:
Liver, targeted needle core biopsies:
Adenocarcinoma with ductal phenotype and focal necrosis,
morphologically consistent with a tumor of pancreas/biliary
system primary site.
Note: The finding of a large mass lesion in the pancreas
supports a pancreatic origin of the tumor in this particular
patient setting.
PENDING LABS AT TIME OF DISCHARGE:
====================================
___ Stool campylobacter culture: pending
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a lovely ___ with HTN, HLD, ___, and
recent DVT on Coumadin initially admitted for ongoing chronic
abdominal pain and 60 pound weight loss over the past year, now
found to have metastatic pancreatic cancer per imaging studies
and confirmed on liver biopsy pathology. CEA elevated to 529,
___. She will follow-up with hematology-oncology
specialists for further workup.
# Metastatic pancreatic cancer:
Ms. ___ was admitted directly from the outpatient office of
her GI provider ___ with vague abdominal pain and
significant unexplained weight loss. On admission, her initial
labwork was concerning for mild transaminitis and an elevated
alk phos. Follow-up RUQ u/s showed "numerous liver masses" and
recommended follow-up imaging. After GI consult, CT torso was
ordered, revealing a number of lung, liver, pancreatic and bone
lesions, suggesting metastatic malignancy of unknown primary,
likely metastatic pancreatic cancer. Pt underwent liver biopsy
on ___ and a bump in LFT s/p liver biopsy. Liver biopsy showed
adenocarcinoma with ductal phenotype and focal necrosis
consistent with pancreatic cancer. Patient will follow-up with
hematology/oncology for further outpatient work-up (see below
for appointments).
# LLE DVT: Diagnosed in ___ during outpatient follow-up
for previous admission, had been anticoagulated on Coumadin. No
clear risk factors initially on diagnosis. Concern for
malignancy in setting of new weight loss and chronic abdominal
pain with suggestive findings on CT scan (see above). New
thromboses noted in R. saphenous vein into common femoral. We
initially started the patient on a heparin gtt for
anticoagulation given need for biopsy, but transitioned to
lovenox sc prior to d/c, on 30mg SC BID given patient's low
weight of 40kg.
# Positive UA: Patient has a chronic foley for urinary retention
placed about a year ago as per daughter. She had no systemic
signs/symptoms or physical exam findings that are consistent
with infection and thus positive UA most likely is colonization.
Held antibiotics given lack of systemic symptoms. BCx negative
x2, Urine culture contaminated, and patient remained afebrile.
# Anemia: Found to be anemic during admission with no overt
source of bleeding, as per her baseline. Normocytic anemia with
low/normal transferrin saturation, high ferritin consistent with
anemia of chronic inflammation.
#Depression:
Patient reported feeling down recently on admission. On
sertraline per daughter, re-started ___. No formal dx of
depression. In setting of new diagnosis, SW consulted during
inpatient admission.
# Urinary Retention: Stable, continued with chronic Foley
catheter.
# Glaucoma: Stable, continued home eye drops.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
-f/u oncological care for management of new pancreatic cancer
diagnosis
-anticoagulation: patient with known DVTs in LLE, also with
hypercoagulable state given cancer, discharged on slightly lower
Lovenox dose of 30mg BID, however given weight loss, will need
to consider alternative DVT treatment if continues to lose
weight, as increased potential for life threatening bleed.
Consider rivaroxaban if weight continues to drop potentially as
outpatient.
-given poor appetite this admission, likely related to her
malignancy, consider appetite stimulant as an outpatient.
-should be referred to Palliative Care Clinic given new
diagnosis of metastatic disease with poor prognosis

History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ male with history of
metastatic RCC on nivolumab, hypercalcemia of malignancy who
presents with shortness of breath and found to have large left
pleural effusion s/p chest tube placement.
Patient noted that for the past 3 days he has had worsening
shortness of breath, pleuritic chest pain with deep breathing,
productive cough with yellow sputum, and right sided chest
discomfort. He noted that he had rhinorrhea as well, but thought
it was related to his recent oral surgery, as he noted that
whatever he drank would come out his nose. He noted that he
believed he had defect in upper gums s/p debridement by oral
surgeon.
Patient noted that he has had normal stooling, but has felt very
weak and is eating/drinking very little. He noted that he
continues to have chronic pain from his malignant bony lesions,
for which he is wheelchair bound. He noted that when he
presented to OSH initially they found that he had a pleural
effusion and sent him to ___ without "doing anything".
In the ED, initial vitals: 97.4 113 ___ 98%. WBC 9.0, Hgb
10.3, plt 223, LFTs wnl except AP 152, Alb 3.4, CHEM with HCO3
21, lactate wnl, trop <0.01, VBG 7.38/42. Chest tube drainage
had 350 WBC (22% poly, many RBC, prot 3.6, glucose 85, LDH 303).
Initial CXR revealed increased size of bilateral pleural
effusions, large on the left and small to moderate on the right.
Bibasilar airspace opacities could reflect compressive
atelectasis, though infection or aspiration cannot be excluded
in the correct clinical setting. Repeat CXR s/p chest tube
placement revealed Left chest tube in place without change in
pleural effusion despite having 500cc removed. EKG sinus without
STEMI. Patient was given duonebs and fentanyl then admitted to
oncology. By time of transfer patient was on room air, with
adequate saturation.
After chest tube placement patient noted that right sided chest
discomfort had completely resolved but he now had left sided
chest discomfort. Pleuritic symptoms remain unchanged. He noted
that shortness of breath is better however.

CXR ___
Impression: Increased size of bilateral pleural effusions, large
on the left and small to moderate on the right. Bibasilar
airspace opacities could reflect compressive atelectasis, though
infection or aspiration cannot be excluded in the correct
clinical setting.
CXR ___
Impression: Left chest tube in place without change in pleural
effusion.
CXR ___
Impression: Comparison to ___. Minimal decrease in extent
of the left pleural effusion with subsequent improved
ventilation of the left lung. The left pleural pigtail catheter
is in stable position. On the right, the effusion has minimally
increased.
CT Sinus/Mandible/Maxillofacial w/o Contrast ___
1. Fracture through the maxillary spine with anterior
displacement of medial incisor equivalents of the recently
placed dental implants. There is also anterior displacement of
the left first premolar equivalent of the dental implants
without maxillary bone fracture. Stranding is noted in this area
without drainable collection.
2. Mild mucosal thickening the bilateral maxillary sinuses and
anterior ethmoid air cells.
3. Lytic metastatic lesions within the visualized cervical spine
without evidence of vertebral body height loss. Osseous
destruction is seen involving the left foramen transversarium at
C1 and bilaterally at C4, new since the MRI dated ___.
A CTA of the neck is recommended to evaluate the vertebral
artery integrity.
CXR ___
Impression: Comparison to ___. The pigtail catheter in
the left pleural space is in stable position. Large amounts of
the pre-existing left pleural effusion have been drained. There
is a relatively substantial basal pneumothorax on the left, at
the site of tube insertion, without evidence of tension. The
size of the cardiac silhouette and the extent of the right
pleural effusion is stable.
CXR ___
1. Removal of left basilar pleural pigtail catheter which has
been replaced by a left basilar PleurX catheter. A small volume
left basal pneumothorax has replaced the previously seen small
left pleural effusion.
2. Moderate right pleural effusion, increased in size compared
to prior study.
CTA Neck ___
1. The carotid and vertebral arteries are patent.
2. No ICA stenosis by NASCET criteria.
3. Extensive bony metastatic disease is again noted most notably

refer to CT C-spine report done ___.
5. Large right-sided pleural effusion, left upper lung
metastatic nodule and loculated left pneumothorax/bullae is
incompletely imaged and if clinically indicated dedicated chest
imaging should be performed.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ male with history of
metastatic RCC on nivolumab, hypercalcemia of malignancy who
presents with shortness of breath and found to have large left
pleural effusion s/p chest tube placement followed by TPC
placement.
# Shortness of Breath:
# Bilateral Pleural Effusions: Shortness of breath and pleuritic
chest pain prior to admission are likely ___ pleural effusions.
Likely malignant effusion, cytology pending. Left chest tube
placed in ED. Studies from ED with low neutrophil count of 77,
but normal glucose and high LDH/protein, with serosanguinous
color is suggestive of exudate/malignancy. His chest tube put
out almost 4L of fluid and his breathing improved and he was
weaned off of oxygen. IP was consulted for management and placed
left TPC prior to discharge. Discussed right pleural effusion
with IP, no plan to drain at this time and will monitor in
clinic. Will need to follow-up pleural fluid cytology. Also will
need to monitor respiratory status and right pleural effusion as
may need intervention in the future. He will follow-up in ___
clinic.
# Oral Erosion/Infection: Patient with erosion of dental implant
screw through his mandible/gums with obviously necrotic tissue
and likely extension into sinsues. CT maxillofacial showed
maxillary spine fracture with multiple malpositioned dental
implants. ___ saw patient and will likely need removal of all
implants. He will complete a 7 day course of antibiotics with
augmentin. He will follow-up in ___ Oral Surgery Clinic.
# Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma: Metastatic to lung, lymph
nodes, liver, spleen, and bones. His disease has progressed on
pazopanib and cabozantinib, with extensive painful bony
metastatic disease. He received radiation therapy to spine but
tolerated it very poorly, although with improvement of pain. He
is s/p recent switch to nivolumab. CT maxillofacial incidentally
noted osseous destruction involving the left foramen
transversarium at C1 and bilaterally at C4 for which a CTA neck
was done and showed no evidence of vertebral artery invasion. He
will follow-up next week with his Oncologist.
# Malignant Hypercalcemia: Noted in outpatient setting which
improved with twice weekly outpatient fluids and monthly
denosumab (last dose ___. His calcium was 11.9 uncorrected
prior to discharge. We recommended that he receive IV
pamidronate but he declined as he did not want to wait for the
infusion. He understood and was able to verbalize the risks
involved with a worsening calcium. He will receive denosumab in
clinic next week. He will continue IVF at home.
# Cancer-Related Pain: Continued home oxycodone and oxycontin.
# Malignant Gastric Ulcer: He underwent EGD at ___
on ___ for hematemesis, and was found to have gastric
ulcer. Biopsies returned positive for metastatic RCC. Continued
home pantoprazole.
# Anemia: Likely secondary to malignancy. No evidence of active
bleeding. Required no transfusions.
# Hypophosphatemia: Repleted and improved.
# Solitary Kidney: No evidence of kidney disease.
# Dysuria: UA and urine culture negative. No further symptoms.
# BILLING: 45 minutes were spent in preparation of discharge
summary and coordination with outpatient providers.

Discharge Disposition:
Home
Discharge Diagnosis:
Headache in the setting of sinus venous thrombosis
Discharge Condition:
Mental Status: Clear and coherent.
Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
During this admission, you presented with headache and we were
concerned that your sinus venous thrombosis had worsened with
increase in clot burden. However, we did specialized imaging of
your brain and your clot burden is actually improving. You will
continue to take your warfarin at the previously prescribed dose
to continue to keep your blood thin to prevent further clotting.
For your headaches we are changing up your management.
Firstly, we are discontinuing your fioricet and sumatriptan.
The fioricet may be causing rebound headaches and the
sumatriptan is not indicated in your type on headache. When you
do have a headache please take tylenol ___ mg every 8 hours as
needed and if it becomes severe take an oxycodone 5 mg.
Finally, we have started you on a medication called
acetazolamide. You will titrate up on this medication as
follows. From discharge til ___ please take 250 mg twice
daily. From ___ til ___ please take 500 mg in the morning
and 250 mg at night. On ___ and thereafter please take 500 mg
twice daily.
In addition to the above, it is important to avoid activities
that can increase pressure in the head. Please take a
medication to soften your stools to prevent bearing down. We
recommend milk of magnesia, which is over the counter, if your
current bowel regimen is not working as needed.

CTA HEAD AND CTA NECK
1. No evidence for acute hemorrhage or large acute infarction.
2. Stable areas of encephalomalacia/gliosis in the right
inferior frontal and
anterior temporal lobes.
3. Cervical spine hardware related streak artifacts limit
evaluation of the
left mid common carotid and bilateral mid internal carotid
arteries, and of
the V1 and proximal V2 vertebral artery segment. Otherwise, no
evidence for
carotid stenosis by NASCET criteria or flow-limiting vertebral
stenosis.
4. Normal CTA of the circle of ___.
5. Nonocclusive filling defect involving the right transverse
sinus, right
sigmoid sinus, and right jugular fossa appears slightly larger
than on the ___ and ___ MRI, but differences in
appearance may in
part be secondary to differences in modalities.
6. Stable nonocclusive filling defect in the superior sagittal
sinus,
consistent with chronic thrombus.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with a h/o TBI, factor 5 leiden with prior DVT & venous
sinus thrombosis, hiatal hernia, depression and anxiety,
admitted for an INR of 10 found at her ___ clinic.
#Supratherapeutic INR: The patient was admitted with an INR of
10. She had no evidence of bleeding on arrival to the hospital.
She got 2.5mg vitamin K in the ED, and her INR dropped to 6.6,
then 1.7 on subsequent days. Given her active thrombosis, she
was started on a heparin drip for bridging. She was then
transitioned to Lovenox 80mg SQ BID. She received her home
warfarin dose of 10mg on ___, and 7.5mg on ___ and was
discharged with an INR of 1.4. She was discharged on Lovenox for
bridging with the plan to have her INR checked on ___ at her
___ clinic.
#Anemia: The patient had a drop in her hemoglobin from 12 to
10.6. Given her supratherapeutic INR, there was some initial
concern for bleeding, however she demonstrated no signs of
bleeding, her hemolysis labs were all negative, and her
hemoglobin was stabilized. Her hemoglobin on discharge was 11.5.
___: Cr 1.2 on admission. She received one liter of IV fluids
in the ED, and another upon arrival to the floor. Her creatinine
improved to 0.8, so this was likely pre-renal in the setting of
some decreased PO intake. Her creatinine was 0.8 on discharge.
Notably, she takes HCTZ for lower extremity edema. Given her ___
and ___ PO intake (discussed below) this was held while she was
in patient, and was held on discharge as well.
#Hiatal hernia
#H/o gastritis and GERD: The patient has a history of a hiatal
hernia and gastritis. She has had continued nausea and
intermittent vomiting with PO intake over the last 6 months.
This has caused her a great deal of distress. She is being
evaluated by Dr. ___ for a possible
fundoplication, however she feels that the surgery would be too
high risk. Given this, we recommend that she follows up with
gastroenterology as an outpatient to discuss other less invasive
treatment options for her hiatal hernia. She was continued on
her anti-emetic regimen with TUMS PRN, Famotidine and
Pantoprazole.
#Factor V Leidin
#Sinus Venous Thrombosis: Pt with known sinus venous thrombosis.
She had repeat imaging with a CT-A of her brain on presentation.
Neurology was consulted to discuss continued sinus venous
thrombosis and felt that she should remain anticoagulated, but
that there was no appreciable change in the size of her clot.
She should continue to follow with neurology as an outpatient,
but there were no changes to this while she was inpatient.
Anticoagulation bridging with Lovenox as above.
STABLE/CHRONIC:
================
#Elevated troponin: Low concern for ACS given lack of exertional
sx, no concerning EKG changes. Would benefit from non-invasive
coronary evaluation as an outpatient.
#Assymptomatic bacteruria: She was not having urinary symptoms
while inpatient, so she was not felt to have a true UTI. Given
this, she was continue on her suppressive antibiotics in house
and on discharge.
#Failure to thrive: Much of her decline in abilities seems
related to poor PO intake as above. ___ was consulted in patient
and recommended home with home ___. She should continue to have
workup for her hiatal hernia as above.
#Headaches: She is being followed closely by neurology as an
outpatient. Topiramate was started at 50mg PO daily, and was
continue in house. She should continue to increase this with
neurology's guidance as an outpatient.
#Urinary incontinence: Continued on home Oxybutynin.
#Depression/Anxiety: Continued home Escitalopram and Clonazepam
#Vitamin D deficiency: Continued home Vitamin D
TRANTISIONAL ISSUES:
====================

ACUTE ISSUES:
=============
#Atypical, intermittent chest pain
#Elevated troponins
#Concern for NSTEMI
Patient reports intermittent chest pain for the past few months
that is positional in nature; she reports she experiences the
pain when she is at rest, lying on ___ side and shrugging. Of
note, she never experiences the chest pain with exertion. She
was found to have elevated troponins that peaked at 0.17 at
admission and downtrended thereafter. Reassuringly, EKGs
appeared similar to prior EKGs (V1-V3 TWIs); also, recent
___ stress echo was neg for ischemic changes. She was
hypotensive at admission, so it is possible ___ troponin leak
may have been ___ Type 2 NSTEMI. Alternatively, given ___ pain
is located near ___ mid-epigastrium, it was felt ___ chest pain
may have been related to ___ hiatal hernia/GERD vs. h/o anxiety
c/b panic disorder. ___ CTA was neg for PE. ___ coronary CTA
prelim read showed no e/o clinically significant coronary artery
calcifications or severe coronary artery stenosis. Per the
radiologist, it would take ___ days for the final report. Given
___ low cardiac risk, the patient was discharged and ___
cardiologist (Dr. ___ was emailed for close follow-up.
She was started on statin 20mg qhs (per Cardiology), with a plan

Aspirin was held, as she was already being anticoagulated with
warfarin.
#Hypotension
Patient triggered for Doppler BP of 69 which improved to ___
on ___. Patient was mentating well without lightheadedness and
other acute complaints. Unclear etiology, though may have been
___ poor po intake given pt's history of frequent
nausea/vomiting. CTA ruled out PE, and patient was afebrile
without infectious symptoms, lowering the concern for sepsis.
___ BCx showed NGTD. Lactate initially elevated at 2.6, but
downtrended on ___ to nml limits. She received 1L LR on ___
and BPs improved to 110-130s systolic thereafter.

esophagus which is likely causing ___ inability to swallow foods
(reports food gets stuck in ___ chest). No e/o malignancy on
prior EGD. She was continued on Famotidine 40 mg PO BID,
Pantoprazole 40 mg PO Q12H, and IV Compazine initially. She was
switched to PO home Compazine when she was able to tolerate po
intake. We recommend she contact ___ PCP to schedule ___ GI
appointment. She has seen a GI doctor in the past, but would
prefer to see another GI doctor.

seen on CTA and ___ without DVT. ___ ___ clinic
was contacted and will contact patient for an INR recheck within
___ days of discharge.
#Severe chronic malnutrition
Reports unintentional weight loss (~20% in past 6 months),
likely due to frequent vomiting ___ episodes of emesis
throughout the week). Nutrition was consulted and she was
started on MVI with minerals.
#Acute E. Coli UTI
#Chronic UTI
___ UCx was negative at admission and home Keflex ___ qd for
ppx UTI was subsequently held. We initiated ___ on Keflex and
pyridium, as she began to experience dysuria, urinary
incontinence. ___ UCx was notable for E. Coli UTI, sensitive
to Keflex. She was increased from 250mg qd to Keflex ___ bid.

Brief Hospital Course:
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
[ ] Follow up BPs at next visit and adjust BP medications as
needed
[ ] Needs INR drawn on ___ and may require warfarin adjustment
[ ] Consider medication adjustments-- given patient is elderly
and has had multiple falls, her regimen of fluoxetine 60mg PO QD
and Buspirone 15 TID may be contributing to her symptoms
[ ] Need to follow up with neurology as outpatient
[ ] Patient supposed to be on mirabegron for urinary
incontinence, however, patient had issues affording this as an
outpatient, so she had not been taking it. Should discuss
options for paying for this or alternate medication regimens.
[ ] Follow up renin and aldosterone levels
[ ] Follow up serum metanephrines - negative as of ___
[ ] Needs ENT follow up - appointment with Mass Eye and Ear
scheduled for the week after discharge
ASSESSMENT AND PLAN
===================
___ is a ___ year old woman with a Factor V Leiden c/b
prior cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and DVT (on Coumadin),
anxiety, and migraines who presented with acute on subacute
headache.
ACUTE ISSUES
=============
#Dizziness
#Headache
The patient has a known history of cerebral sinus venous
thrombosis (on warfarin), who initially presented with acute
worsening of subacute 2-week headache which was similar to her
prior CVST headache. MRI brain with resolved CVST. Head imaging
was otherwise negative for masses, bleed, or acute infarction.
The patient had recently been weaned off topiramate due to
cognitive side effects. In the ED, she received fluids, Tylenol,
antiemetic, and IV cocktail but ultimately had no improvement in
her symptoms. The inpatient Neurology team was consulted and
felt her HA were tension type vascular headaches. Per
neurology's recommendations, she was started on Meclizine 25mg
PO Q6hrs, Baclofen 10 mg PO/NG BID and continued on
Acetaminophen and zofran PRN. After discussion with the
patient's outpatient neurologist (who had discussed the case
with her outpatient psychiatrist), she was started on clonazepam
to 1.0mg PO BID and Amitriptyline 10mg PO QHS with some
improvement in her symptoms. She was also seen by physical
therapy who recommended outpatient ___ rehab. Given
complaints of her temporal pain, an ESR and CRP were checked--
ESR 2, CRP 0.8 (wnl). TSH was 1.3. Given her new HTN in
association with her headaches, she was started on amlodipine
and captopril with improvement in her BPs (see below). A work up
for secondary HTN was conducted as discussed below. She noted
improvement in her symptoms and was discharged with plans to
follow up with Dr. ___ in neurology.
#Hypertension:
Presented hypertensive SBP 180s-190s. Patient's BPs had been
persistently elevated throughout the first 3 days of her
hospitalization(averaging 150s-160s). Per review of her
outpatient records, she has never been HTN before and baseline
BPs are in 110-120s. It was unclear why she developed HTN at age
___, so a work up for secondary cause of HTN was conducted. This
included a renal ultrasound negative for renal artery stenosis
and normal TSH. Renin, aldosterone, and metanephrines were sent
and pending at the time of discharge (at the time of this
discharge summary, ___ still pending but metanephrines
negative). She was discharged on amlodipine to 10mg PO QD and
her Captopril 12.5mg TID was converted to Lisinopril 7.5mg PO
QD.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
==============
#Factor V Leiden
#Prior DVT and venous sinus thrombosis (VST)
Patient subtherapeutic with INR 1.8 on presentation. Initially
received 9mg Warfarin, then 7.5 x2 days and then 6mg x2 days.
INR at discharge 2.8. Will discharge with warfarin 6mg PO QD.
Goal INR ___. She will need follow up with her PCP to ___
an INR and adjust warfarin.
#Depression/Anxiety:
- Continued Fluoxetine 60mg PO DAILY
- Continued Buspirone as noted above
- Started Clonazepam and amitriptyline as noted above
#Hyperlipidemia:
- Continued atorvastatin 20mg
#Urinary incontinence:
- Held the patient's home mirabegron given non-formulary and
that patient had issues affording this as an outpatient, so she
had not been taking this.

Brief Hospital Course:
PATIENT SUMMARY
=================
___ year old woman with a Factor V Leiden c/b prior cerebral
venous sinus thrombosis and DVT (on Coumadin), anxiety, and
migraines who presented with one episode of BRBPR and ongoing
weakness. BRBPR found to be most consistent with bleeding
internal hemorrhoids in the setting of chronic constipation. Her
bowel regimen was increased with improvement in constipation.
She had no additional episodes of BRBPR and hemoglobin remained
stable.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
====================
[] Patient can call ___ to make an appointment with Dr.
___ (hematologist) to discuss options other than warfarin
for anticoagulation
[] Check INR on ___ and adjust warfarin dosing accordingly.
[] Discontinued antihypertensives given patient was normotensive
and complaining of fatigue since starting these medications.
This can be reevaluated as needed on an outpatient basis.
ACUTE ISSUES
=============
# BRBPR:
Likely related to hemorrhoidal bleeding in the setting of
chronic constipation and straining for BMs. While H/H did
initially drop, suspect that initial CBC was hemoconcentrated.
Subsequent H/H stable and consistent with prior values.
Increased bowel regimen and trended H/H. Although patient
endorsed abdominal pain, exam was benign and CT imaging revealed
no acute findings.
# Constipation
Patient has chronic constipation. Had BMs after getting
senna/miralax and Bisacodyl PO and PR.
# Weakness:
Etiology not entirely clear, but appeared to be a subacute
complaint as she reported she felt weak and unfit for discharge
during last admission as well. Neuro exam non-focal which is
reassuring. Of note, she was seen by her outpatient neurologist
recently who commented that her weakness may be related to
polypharmacy, and he recommended stopping meclizine and baclofen
at that time. Also, while she was recently started on BP meds
during prior admission, her BP's were on the lower side, raising
concern that BP meds could be contributing. Consequently, her BP
meds were held and she remained normotensive. ___ was consulted
and recommends discharging to home with maximum services.
# Headaches:
Longstanding issue for this patient, for which she follows with
outpatient neurology. As above, neuro exam was non-focal, and CT
head without any concerning findings. Continued home regimen of
amitryptiline and diazepam.
# HTN:
Held home BP meds as above. Patient remains normotensive. Can be
reevaluated as an outpatient if necessary.
CHRONIC ISSUES
===============
# Factor V Leiden
# Prior DVT and venous sinus thrombosis (VST): Goal INR 2.0-3.0.
Checked INRs daily and dosed Warfarin accordingly.
# Depression/Anxiety:
Continued FLUoxetine 60 mg PO DAILY
Continued BusPIRone 15 mg PO BID
# Hyperlipidemia:
Continued Atorvastatin 20 mg PO QPM
# Urinary incontinence:
Held the patient's home mirabegron given non-formulary and that
patient had issues affording this as an outpatient, so she had
not been taking this.
# Recurrent UTI:
Continued Cephalexin 250 mg PO Q24H
# GERD:
Continued Pantoprazole 40 mg PO Q12H
