The right atrium is moderately dilated. No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. The estimated right atrial pressure is ___ mmHg. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and regional/global systolic function are normal (LVEF >55%). There is considerable beat-to-beat variability of the left ventricular ejection fraction due to an irregular rhythm/premature beats. Tissue Doppler imaging suggests an increased left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP>18mmHg). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. There are three aortic valve leaflets. The aortic valve leaflets are moderately thickened. The aortic valve VTI = cm. There is severe aortic valve stenosis (valve area <1.0cm2). Mild (1+) aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are moderately thickened. Severe (4+) mitral regurgitation is seen. [Due to acoustic shadowing, the severity of mitral regurgitation may be significantly UNDERestimated.] Due to the eccentric nature of the regurgitant jet, its severity may be significantly underestimated (Coanda effect). Severe [4+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is severe pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. [In the setting of at least moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation, the estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure may be underestimated due to a very high right atrial pressure.] There is a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Biatrial abnormality. Preserved biventricular systolic function. Increased left ventricular filling pressure. Severe aortic stenosis with mild aortic regurgitation. Severe mitral regurgitation. Severe tricuspid regurgitation. Severe pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. CTA Chest IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or aortic abnormality. 2. Findings concerning for bilateral lower lobe pneumonia. 3. Background pulmonary edema with moderate bilateral pleural effusions, right greater than left. CT Head IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial abnormality on noncontrast head CT. CXR IMPRESSION: In comparison with the study of ___, the monitoring and support devices have been removed. There is again enlargement of the cardiac silhouette but improvement in the pulmonary vascular status with only minimal elevation of pulmonary venous pressure. Retrocardiac opacification with obscuration of the hemidiaphragm is consistent with volume loss in the left lower lobe with small pleural effusion. Elevation of the right hemidiaphragmatic contour persists. . TEE ___ Conclusions PRE-BYPASS: The left atrium is dilated. No mass/thrombus is seen in the left atrium or left atrial appendage. The right atrium is moderately dilated. No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. Left ventricular wall thicknesses are normal. [Intrinsic left ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of valvular regurgitation.] The right ventricular cavity is dilated [Intrinsic right ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the severity of tricuspid regurgitation.] There are simple atheroma in the descending thoracic aorta. There are simple atheroma in the abdominal aorta. The aortic valve leaflets are severely thickened/deformed. There is severe aortic valve stenosis (valve area <1.0cm2). Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are severely thickened/deformed. There is moderate thickening of the mitral valve chordae. Severe (4+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Severe [4+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is no pericardial effusion. Dr. ___ was notified in person of the results before surgical incision.. POST-BYPASS: Patient is on milrinone, levophed, vasopressin. Moderate to severely depressed global RV function. LVEF 45%. Difficult views due to triple valve surgery and subsequent shadowing. Aortic bioprosthesis is intact with no regurgitant lesions. It is stable and functioning well with a residual mean gradient of 11mm of Hg. Mitral bioprosthesis is stable, functioning well, no residual regurgitant lesion with a residual mean gradient of 4mm of Hg. Tricuspid ring is intact and no residual stenosis.

BY ELECTRONICALLY SIGNING THIS REPORT, I THE ATTENDING PHYSICIAN ATTEST THAT ___ HAVE REVIEWED THE ABOVE IMAGES FOR THE ABOVE EXAMINATION(S) AND AGREE WITH THE FINDINGS AS DOCUMENTED ABOVE. ___ ___, MD electronically signed on ___ 4:04 ___ Imaging Lab Report History ___ 4:04 ___ by INFORMATION,SYSTEMS . Brief Hospital Course: Course on Medicine Service ___ Ms. ___ is an ___ year old female with PMH of AFib, AS, COPD, GERD, T2DM who initially presented with acute shortness of breath secondary to an acute on chronic HFpEF exacerbation secondary to significant valvular disease as well as a left lower lobe pneumonia. She was found to have aortic stenosis, mitral regurgitation, and tricuspid regurgitation. Ms. ___ was diuresed to euvolemia and optimizing prior to undergoing surgical valve repair after thorough pre-operative testing. She underwent aortic valve replacement, mitral valve replacement, and tricuspid valve repair. # HFpEF (EF 55%) ___ Valvular Disease: Patient with volume overload at admission likely related to valvular disease, which improved with diuresis. Patient was initially diuresed on 10mg and 20mg doses of torsemide with good effect. She was later diuresed with intravenous lasix until she was euvolemic. It was felt that her heart failure was secondary to significant valvular disease. At that point, she was transferred to the cardiothoracic surgery service to undergo valve replacement surgery. She was continued on metropolol and diltiazem for atrial fibrillation rate control. She was initially started on captopril, but it was held in the setting of hypotension. # Multi-valvular disease: Patient had evidence of significant valvular disease with severe AS, severe MR, and severe TR visualized on TEE. It was felt that heart heart failure exacerbations were due in large part to her valvular disease and such she was evaluated for cardiac surgery. After undergoing carotid doppler, right heart catheterization, coronary angiogram, she was transferred from the cardiology service to the cardiac surgery service where she underwent aortic valve replacement, mitral valve replacement, and tricuspid valve repair. The surgery was uneventful and Ms. ___ did well afterwards. # AFib on warfarin. Patient was placed on metropol and diltiazem for rate control of her atrial fibrillation. Initially difficult to achieve control without adversely affecting blood pressures. She seems to be highly sensitive to metoprolol. Her dose of metoprolol was down-titrated and she was placed on metoprolol and diltiazem. She was carefully titrated on these medications due the risk of precipitating cariogenic shock in a patient who is pre-load dependent. # PNA. Patient presented with LLL pneumonia on CXR. She was treated with an 8 day course of levofloxacin without event. #Diarrhea. Patient with over 1 week of diarrhea. Her stool was C. Diff negative and thought to be secondary to antibiotics. It resolved by discharge. # DM2. Patients sugars well-controlled. Her home medications were held and she was placed on a sliding scale. # GERD. Patient with h/o GERD, well-controlled. Maintained on PO protons # HLD - Continue atorvastatin # Depression - Continue home meds = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = ================================================================ Course on Cardiac Surgery Service ___ The patient was brought to the Operating Room on ___ where the patient underwent AVR, MVR, TVr with Dr. ___. Overall the patient tolerated the procedure well and post-operatively was transferred to the CVICU in stable condition for recovery and invasive monitoring. She was initially coagulopathic requiring multiple blood products. Hemodynamic support was achieved with vasopressin, levophed and milrinone. She was extubated by POD 1 and vasopressors were weaned as hemodynamics improved. She initially failed a swallow evaluation and was fed with tube feeds via dob hoff. Digoxin was started for AFib as well as amio and diltiazem. Anti-coagulation was resumed with Warfarin. Vasopressors were discontinued and Beta blocker initiated. She developed a left sided pleural effusion and pig-tail drain was placed with good effect. Beta blocker was initiated and the patient was gently diuresed toward the preoperative weight. The patient was transferred to the telemetry floor on POD 11 for further recovery. Speech/Swallow continued to follow and diet was advanced accordingly. Chest tubes and pacing wires were discontinued without complication. The patient was evaluated by the physical therapy service for assistance with strength and mobility. By the time of discharge on POD 14 the patient was ambulating with assistance, the wound was healing and pain was controlled with oral analgesics. The patient was discharged to ___ ___ in good condition with appropriate follow up instructions. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: F Service: MEDICINE Allergies: Penicillins / cefepime / Imipenem Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: Altered mental status Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: ___ with PMHx of ESRD on HD (___), HTN, T2DM, chronic subclavian DVT on warfarin, gangrenous R toe TMA w/ wound vac c/b multiple gram negative line infections and most recently line associated bacteremia with Corynebacterium presents to the ED from dialysis with altered mental status. On previous admission in ___: Pt presented with fever, leukocytosis, respiratory failure, and hypotension in the ED concerning for shock. Initial symptoms at that time were only of lethargy and confusion with no known localizing symptoms. Treated empirically with vanc/meropenem. Blood grew Vanc sensitive, Penicillin/Gent intermediate Corynebacterium from blood in context of suspected line infection--treated with 2 weeks of vanc. In terms of further microbiological history: Also has had Pan sensitive Proteus in context of suspected line infection. MSSA and Non-anthracis Clinda resistant Bacillus in context of suspected line infection. She now is with a right tunneled IJ that was placed ___ after her last line became infected. She has very poor peripheral access. Also previously had Cipro resistant E.coli and Prevotella growing from gangrenous foot. This had been treated with right SFA and anterior tibial stent and then a TMA which needed multiple wound vacs. Today she was at regularly scheduled ___ dialysis when she was noted to be more lethargic than usual. Was AOx3, but given prior primary presentation of lethargy, she was sent to the ED for evaluation. On presentation to ED initial vitals were 98 90 139/50 20 96% 4L. Temperature heightend to 100.0. Noted to have a peau'd'orange appearance on her left breast, which is consistent with appearance on last d/c summary. No subQ air was palpable. Per PCP note this is a chronic issue being followed by serially by ultrasound and mammograms. The left breast swelling was considered secondary to more proximal (SCV) thromboses, which have been chronic leading to congestion. CBC of 7.1. Chem 7 with HCO3 of 17, creat to 3.4, AG of 17--otherwise unremarkable. INR 2.0 (on warfarin). VBG with pH 7.15 pCO2 72 pO2 67 HCO3 26. Three sets of blood cultures were drawn. CT Head showed now acute intracranial abnormality. Given suspicion for necrotizing fasciitis, CT Torso obtained showing extensive L chest wall cellulitis extending into the flank with some superficial muscle involvement. Failed EJ attempt but able to get 18 gauge in R arm. She was given Clinda, Vanc, imipenem and 1L of NS for soft pressures to SBP ___.

Extensive cellulitis involving the deep soft tissues and musculature of the left lateral chest wall in the left flank without clear evidence for intrathoracic or intra-abdominal involvement. The small focus of gas within the left supraclavicular area is likely due to recent instrumentation, however if no intervention has been performed, this is concerning for necrotizing fasciitis. 2. No acute intra abdominal process. 3. Dense atherosclerotic disease with multiple collateral vessels seen in the right chest wall and abdomen, as seen previously. Brief Hospital Course: ___ with PMHx of ESRD on HD (___), HTN, T2DM, chronic subclavian DVT on warfarin, gangrenous R toe TMA w/ wound vac c/b multiple gram negative line infections and most recently line associated bacteremia with Corynebacterium presents to the ED from dialysis with altered mental status. # CONCERN FOR CELLULITIS: Patient was hemodynamically stable on admission to ICU. CT scan concerning for cellulitis involving the deep soft tissues and musculature of the left lateral chest, for while she received antibiotics (see below). On further review, these skin changes were noted as chronic and documented as so previously in the medical record. The antibiotics were discontinued and she remained stable off therapy. # ANGIOEDEMA: Noted following administration of both Imipenem and Cefepime. Previous PCN allergy noted as hives. Treated with Famotidine, Benadryl and Methylprednisolone to good effect. Negative TSH and B12. Pt maintained on NIPPV briefly. patient did not require intubation, but her code status was transiently reversed in the MICU. She remained DNR/DNI at discharge. She was discharged on a short course of prednisone. # ENCEPHALOPATHY: In context of similar presentation to prior episodes of sepsis, but on arrival ICU, patient was AOx3 and conversing normally. CT head shows no acute abnormality. Unclear initially etiology, but possibly explained by fluid shifts in dialysis. As above, initial concern was for sepsis. Her HD line appeared clean and without evidence of infection. # L BREAST SKIN CHANGES: Per previous notes and discussion with PCP, these felt to be likely chronic secondary to chronic subclavian thrombosis for which she is on warfarin. Had previously been monitored with serial mammograms and ultrasound. INACTIVE ISSUES # PERIPHERAL VASCULAR DISEASE: Secondary to diabetes, now s/p anterior tibial stenting with TMA of gangrenous right foot. Right foot without infection. Continued ASA/Plavix. # DM: Had longstanding poor control previously, but has had improved A1cs in more recent years. Latest A1c was 6.1%. At home is only on sliding scale insulin. Per reports of prior notes, average measured sugars at dialysis are in 100s-110s. Continued gabapentin and maintained with HISS in-house. # ESRD on HD: ___ schedule. Complicated by renal osteodystrophy. Continued VitD/calc/Nephrocaps. # ACCESS: Right tunneled IJ that was placed ___ after her last line became infected.

His increased SOB is likely caused by lack of inhaled corticosteroids, long acting anticholinergics and possibly complicated by chronic aspiration which was seen on CT scan. The patient has ___ criteria for COPD exacerbation (acute increase in dyspnea, no increase in cough or sputum) so likely a minor flare even in the setting of hypoxia due to lack of meds. Once started on his medications again in the hospital he improved quickly with 95% O2 sat/RA at rest. Upon ambulation, his O2 sat dropped to low ___. He was started on 2L of O2 and prednisone burst and his O2 sat has been 100%/2L. Since the chest CT showed opacities in RM, RL, LL, and lingula, there was concern for aspiration so was treated with Augmentin for 7 days. His ambulatory O2 sats continued to be in low to mid ___ on RA so he was set up with home O2. His O2 sats at rest were low 90's on RA. We discharged him on fluticasone, ipratroprium, and albuterol. He will also finish prednisone 40mg PO daily for 5 days (D1: ___ burst. His baseline PFTs are unkown and he should have PFTs several weeks after this acute exacerbation resolves. If he is not hypoxic on RA in the future than ambulatory 02 therapy can be discontinued.

He was admitted with acute hypercarbic respiratory failure with pCO2 73 (VBG) on admission. He required BiPAP in the ICU temprorarily - with improvement after treatment with antibiotics and steroids and nebulizers. The possible triggers would include pneumonia as well as medication non-compliance as ran out of inhalers several days PTA. There was likely pneumonia given leukocytosis, increased sputum production, and question of bilateral infiltrates on CXR. Because he had no recent hospitalizations, he was initially treated as if her had community acquired pneumonia with ceftriaxone, azithromycin. He was also given prednisone, duonebs standing, albuterol nebs PRN, and Advair. Ultimately he was switched to PO levoflox on ___ for a planned total 8 day course. Without oxygen, he desaturated to 80% particularly with exertion. He was intstructed to have oxygen on at all time given this consideration. The family also reported that he did much better with nebulizers (and did not work with inhalers well at home). For this reason, he was placed on Oxygen, given prescription for nebulizers. He can restart Tiotropium at discharge # Tachycardia: irreg/irreg: during this admission, Mr. ___ had episodes of significant tachycardia - with heart rates as high ast 170s with exertion. EKG revealed afib (vs. MAT). There was no hypotension during these events. His oxygenation was optimized and he was placed on escalating dose of diltiazem. Ultimately, he was placed on 360 mg/day of diltiazem with good response. His HR was largely ___ at rest, although would increase to 150 with exertion. The tachycardia was likely contributed by nebs and possible compouned by recent infection. The hope is that the afib is transient in the acute setting and that long-term anticoagulation can be avoided altogether (also fall risk). # BPH: Mr. ___ had an episode of urinary retention with BS 650cc. This was possibly compounded by constipation. He was placed on flomax, in addition to the finateride. he was also treated for his constipation. With this, regimen, he had good urine output with PVR in low 100 range. This can be followed up as an outpt. # Glaucoma - Continue home eye drops BUNDLE # Prophylaxis: Heparin SQ # Access: PIV # Communication: Etlelgi___ (daughter) ___, ___ (___) ___ # Code: DNR/DNI but BiPAP ok (confirmed with patient and daughter) Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

You were treated with antibiotics and medications to help you breathe. Over time, your breathing improved. You would need to receive oxygen all the time, since without it, your oxygen levels decrease significantly. You were also found to have a rapid heart rate attributed to something called atrial fibrillation. For this you were given medications to help control the heart rate. You are provided with some new medications and equipment: these include - Diltiazem (for control of heart rate) - Levofloxacin (antibiotic to be taken for an additional 3 days) - Prednisone (steroids for an additional 2 days) - Tamsulosin (to help you urinate) - nebulizer (a way to deliver breathing medications with a steam-like method) - ___ Followup Instructions: ___

This is a concentrated smear made by cytospin method, please refer to hematology for a quantitative white blood cell count.. FLUID CULTURE (Preliminary): NO GROWTH. ANAEROBIC CULTURE (Preliminary): . Blood culture x 2 pending . Urine culture pending . CHEST (PA & LAT) Study Date of ___ FINDINGS: The heart is normal in size. The mediastinal and hilar contours appear within normal limits. There is a persistent patchy left basilar opacity. Given the lack of change, the appearance may be chronic. More generally, there is mild interstitial prominence, perhaps due to slight fluid overload or congestion, but not specific; other possibilities include atypical infection, airway inflammation, or possibly interstitial lung disease. IMPRESSION: Mild suspected background interstitial abnormality and unchanged focal left infrahilar opacity, accordingly suggestive of longer chronicity. Clinical correlation is recommended. If shortness of breath were to continue and the possibility of an underlying interstitial process is of potential clinical concern, dedicated chest CT could be considered. . CT ABD & PELVIS WITH CONTRAST Study Date of ___ CT ABDOMEN: There are no pleural effusions. The lung bases appear clear. The liver is nodular consistent with fibrosis. The caudate and left lateral segments are markedly enlarged. The entire left lobe is shrunken with predominantly central areas of relative hypodensity suggesting fibrosis. Because monophasic technique was used, screening for hepatocellular carcinoma is limited, but there are no suspicious focal lesions identified. The spleen is moderately enlarged, measuring up to 17.3 cm in length. Esophageal, paraesophageal and short gastric varices are apparent. The gallbladder shows mild wall thickening which can be seen in cirrhosis but it does not appear distended. The adrenal glands, pancreas and adrenal glands appear within normal limits. Along the anterior abdominal wall there is a fat-containing paraumbilical hernia with omental contents. Its neck is wide, measuring up to nearly 26 mm in diameter; the sac measures up to 49 mm in diameter. There is congestive change suggested by high attenuation in the fat as well as a small amount of peripheral fluid, which are findings that can be seen with incarceration but which are highly nonspecific particularly in the setting of generalized cirrhosis and ascites with portal hypertension. The stomach, small and large bowel appear within normal limits. The appendix appears normal. CT PELVIS: Moderate-to-large ascites layers in the pelvis. Streak artifact from bilateral hip replacements makes evaluation of lower pelvic structures such as the prostate and seminal vesicles and lower part of the bladder difficult, but no definite abnormality is identified. The bladder is poorly delineated and probably mostly empty. There are patchy vascular calcifications without any aneurysm. There are slightly prominent celiac and periportal lymph nodes but none enlarged by size criteria. The main portal vein and its major branches appear patent, although segmental branches of the portal vein are markedly attenuated in keeping with portal hypertension. BONE WINDOWS: There are no suspicious lytic or blastic lesions. Mild degenerative changes are present along the lower lumbar facets. Patient is status post right hip hemiarthroplasty and left total hip replacement. IMPRESSION: 1. Cirrhosis with findings consistent with portal hypertension including splenomegaly and varices. 2. Moderate-to-large quantity of ascites. 3. Fat-containing ventral hernia with a fairly wide neck. Although there is increased attenuation of fat as well as a small quantity of peripheral fluid, which can be seen with incarceration, findings are highly nonspecific in this setting. Brief Hospital Course: ___ man with a history of cirrhosis secondary to hepatitis C and alcohol use who was admitted with fever and abdominal pain. Pt remained afebrile throughout his stay and his abdominal exam and imaging were not concerning for any acute process. . ACTIVE ISSUES: # Fever: Pt was admitted with reports of 4 days of fever, however he remained afebrile throughout his hospitalization. He reportedly was diagnosed with pneumonia at an outside facility, however his chest xray here was not concerning for any acute pathology, and radiographic findings were consistent with prior chest xrays. His abdominal pain was concerning for SBP but his diagnostic paracentesis showed only 140 WBC, 7% PMN. His transaminases were at baseline. He had blood and urine cultures sent, both of which were pending at time of discharged, but his UA was not concerning for an infectious process. He had an abdominal CT scan to evaluation for possible perforation or incarcerated hernia, neither of which were evident. He was continued on his azithromycin and was discharged with instructions to complete a 5 day course. . # abdominal pain: His abdominal pain was concerning for SBP but his diagnostic paracentesis showed only 140 WBC, 7% PMN. His transaminases were at baseline. He had blood and urine cultures sent, both of which were pending at time of discharged, but his UA was not concerning for an infectious process. He had an abdominal CT scan to evaluation for possible perforation or incarcerated hernia, neither of which were evident and no source of his pain was identified. His pain was well controlled on his home oxycodone dose and he was able to tolerate a full diet prior to discharge. . # Ascites: Pt is s/p therapeutic tap for recurrent ascites on ___ at ___. He requires therapeutic taps every ___ weeks at baseline. His report of increasing ascites was concerning for possible intraabdominal infectious etiology for abdominal pain, though his CT scan was not concerning and his diagnostic paracentesis was not concerning for SBP. He did not require a therapeutic paracentesis during this admission. . CHRONIC ISSUES: # Cirrhosis: Pt has history of cirrhosis secondary to alcohol use and hepatitis C. He reports being sober since ___. His cirrhosis has been complicated by varices and recurrent ascites. He is status post recent therapeutic tap on ___ (3L) at ___, and is requiring therapeutic taps every ___ weeks per his baseline. His home nadolol was continued.

DISCHARGE LABS: =============== ___ 09:15AM BLOOD Glucose-124* UreaN-17 Creat-0.7 Na-146 K-3.7 Cl-100 HCO3-34* AnGap-12 Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman with a past medical history of vascular dementia, heart failure with preserved EF, asthma, CKD, HTN who is BIBA from nursing home for unresponsiveness found to have markedly elevated CO2 and respiratory acidosis, acute on chronic CHF exacerbation, improved with BIPAP, and UTI. # Hypercarbic respiratory failure # Acute on chronic respiratory acidosis Etiology likely secondary to heart failure exacerbation probably triggered in the setting of UTI and stopping diuretics. Given the elevated bicarbonate, she likely has a chronic respiratory acidosis but the rapid improvement on BIPAP suggests also an acute component. Her mental status markedly improved after BIPAP with CO2 improvement from 123 to 65. Plan to continue BIPAP nightly at rehab as tolerated and continue treatment of heart failure as below. # Volume overload # Heart failure with preserved EF BNP at 8239 on admission with clinical and radiographic evidence of volume overload. TTE showed preserved EF with moderate MR and severe pulmonary artery hypertension. Diuresed initially with IV Lasix, then transitioned to PO torsemide 10 mg prior to discharge. # UTI Positive UA. No clear symptoms but this may have triggered her heart failure exacerbation and contributed to altered mental status. She is not currently septic appearing. She was started on ceftriaxone on ___ and urine speciated to E. coli, pan-sensitive. She completed her antibiotic course on ___. # Hypernatremia Na 153 likely from decreased free water intake in the setting of altered mental status. She was given D5W with improvement. Na+ day prior to discharge had normalized to 146. # Elevated troponin Troponin to 0.07 on admission without ischemic changes on EKG, stable on repeat. Likely demand in the setting of heart failure exacerbation. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== [] BIPAP nightly as tolerated. [] Started on torsemide 10mg daily for diastolic heart failure [] Please repeat BMP on ___ while on torsemide 10mg daily. If worsening hypernatremia or creatinine elevation, consider decreasing dose of torsemide. [] Patient made DNR/DNI on this admission. MOLST in chart. [] Discontinued amlodipine during admission, given acute heart failure exacerbation and addition of torsemide. Would tolerate higher BP goal given frailty.

(This is about the weight of a briefcase or a bag of groceries.) This applies to lifting children, but they may sit on your lap. o You may start some light exercise when you feel comfortable. o You will need to stay out of bathtubs or swimming pools for a time while your incision is healing. Ask your doctor when you can resume tub baths or swimming. HOW YOU MAY FEEL: o You may feel weak or "washed out" for a couple of weeks. You might want to nap often. Simple tasks may exhaust you. o You may have a sore throat because of a tube that was in your throat during surgery. o You might have trouble concentrating or difficulty sleeping. You might feel somewhat depressed. o You could have a poor appetite for a while. Food may seem unappealing. o All of these feelings and reactions are normal and should go away in a short time. If they do not, tell your surgeon. YOUR INCISION: o Tomorrow you may shower and remove the gauzes over your incisions. Under these dressing you have small plastic bandages called steri-strips. Do not remove steri-strips for 2 weeks. (These are the thin paper strips that might be on your incision.) But if they fall off before that that's okay). o Your incisions may be slightly red around the stitches. This is normal. o You may gently wash away dried material around your incision. o Avoid direct sun exposure to the incision area. o Do not use any ointments on the incision unless you were told otherwise. o You may see a small amount of clear or light red fluid staining your dressing or clothes. If the staining is severe, please call your surgeon. o You may shower. As noted above, ask your doctor when you may resume tub baths or swimming. YOUR BOWELS: o Constipation is a common side effect of narcotic pain medications. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these medicines without a prescription. o If you go 48 hours without a bowel movement, or have pain moving the bowels, call your surgeon. PAIN MANAGEMENT: o It is normal to feel some discomfort/pain following abdominal surgery. This pain is often described as "soreness". o Your pain should get better day by day. If you find the pain is getting worse instead of better, please contact your surgeon. o You will receive a prescription for pain medicine to take by mouth. It is important to take this medicine as directed. o Do not take it more frequently than prescribed. Do not take more medicine at one time than prescribed. o Your pain medicine will work better if you take it before your pain gets too severe. o Talk with your surgeon about how long you will need to take prescription pain medicine. Please don't take any other pain medicine, including non-prescription pain medicine, unless your surgeon has said its okay. o If you are experiencing no pain, it is okay to skip a dose of pain medicine. o Remember to use your "cough pillow" for splinting when you cough or when you are doing your deep breathing exercises. If you experience any of the following, please contact your surgeon: - sharp pain or any severe pain that lasts several hours - pain that is getting worse over time - pain accompanied by fever of more than 101 - a drastic change in nature or quality of your pain MEDICATIONS: Take all the medicines you were on before the operation just as you did before, unless you have been told differently.

Patent hepatic vasculature with appropriate direction of flow. Lumbar Spine X-Ray ___: IMPRESSION: No compression fracture. Severe degenerative changes of the right hip, and mild to moderate multilevel degenerative disc changes. Brief Hospital Course: SUMMARY: ======== Mr. ___ is a ___ with history of EtOH cirrhosis who presented with decompenstated cirrhosis and bilateral hyperesthesia/paresthesia bilateral lower extremeties (right>left). Differential for his hyperesthesia and paresthesias were initially broad. Possibility that presentation related to worsening ascites compressing lateral femoral cutaneous nerves causing neurogenic pain, pain from hip osteoarthritis, diabetic neuropathy. Acute spinal cord etiology of pain ruled out with normal lumbar spine x-ray. However, x-ray did show severe degenerative changes of bilateral hips consistent with osteoarthritis. Patient was given methadone, gabapentin, Tylenol, tramadol for pain control. Pain resolved morning of ___. Notably, patient was net -1.4 L ___, after resuming home diuretic regimen of Lasix and spironolactone. Presenting symptoms ultimately most likely multifactorial in the setting of nerve compression, hip osteoarthritis. Patient was noted to have difficult to control hyperglycemia throughout admission without evidence of DKA. Required insulin drip twice to control blood sugars. ___ was consulted who assisted with insulin regimen. Ultimately patient discharged on 40 units of Lantus at night, units of Humalog with each meal. Patient also with history of opioid use disorder, last heroin use ___. Seen by addiction medicine this admission and during prior recent admission. We will set up to initiate treatment at ___ clinic at ___ at discharge. Patient did not follow-up at ___ prior to this admission. States he will initiate care with them after discharge this time. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== -Follow Up Appointments: PCP, ___ weight 88.4kg -Discharge diabetes regimen: 40 units Lantus nightly, 12 units Humalog with each meal, holding home metformin and glipizide at discharge pending ___ follow-up [] Patient's leg pain was of unclear etiology. If pain controlled and patient's weight at baseline consider tapering off gabapentin. [] Please assess for further illicit opioid use. Encourage patient to initiate services at ___. [] Will need ongoing insulin/antihyperglycemic medication titration as patient's blood sugars were elevated and difficult to control throughout admission. [] Will need repeat CBD imaging to evaluate etiology of dilation, ultrasound versus ERCP [] Blood pressures were mildly elevated throughout much of admission into 130s to 140s systolic. Would likely benefit from initiation of antihypertensive therapy [] Encourage continued alcohol abstinence, tobacco cessation [] Severe bilateral hip osteoarthritis noted on x-ray. ___ benefit from orthopedic evaluation. ACUTE/ACTIVE ISSUES: ==================== #Bilateral lower extremity parethesia and hyperesthesia Differential for symptoms relatively broad. However, pain and hyperesthesia now improved. Unclear etiology, possibly secondary to severe bilateral hip osteoarthritis arthritis as seen on lumbar spine x-ray. Possible contribution from diabetic neuropathy given neurologic quality to the pain described by patient. Also possible that abdominal distention due to ascites was causing lateral femoral cutaneous nerve compression. Pain has now resolved after resuming home diuretic regimen ___. Patient was net -1.4 L ___. Patient was given methadone 5 mg daily, Tylenol, tramadol, initiated gabapentin uptitrated to 600 mg 3 times daily. # EtOH Cirrhosis # Ascites ETOH cirrhosis previously c/b portal HTN, ascites, esophageal varices, HE. Formerly followed at ___ however patient states he wants to transfer all care to ___. Volume overloaded on admission, no asterixis on exam, no evidence of bleeding. Was initially diuresed with IV Lasix then transition to home diuretics of Lasix 20 mg daily, spironolactone 50 mg daily. Continued home pantoprazole 40 mg twice daily, home propranolol 12 mg twice daily for variceal prophylaxis. Continued home lactulose 30 mg every 6 encephalopathy prophylaxis. Meld at discharge 24. # T2DM - Uncontrolled hyperglycemia Patient admitted on regimen of metformin 500 mg daily, glipizide 10 mg daily which were held. Blood sugars uncontrolled and required insulin drip twice during admission. No evidence of DKA throughout admission. ___ consulted due to difficult to control hyperglycemia. Felt patient likely glucotoxic. Glucose control improved with increasing doses of long-acting Lantus, prandial insulin standing, insulin sliding scale Humalog. Patient will follow-up with ___ after discharge. #Opioid use disorder Patient with history of opioid use disorder disorder. Active use by snorting, last use ___. Has ___ clinic at ___ during recent admission but did not initiate services. States that he is still set up with to start with them at any time. He is unsure if he will, but notes that it is an important step towards opioid abstinence. Addiction medicine was consulted during this admission and encouraged patient to initiate services with his ___ clinic. Patient given 5 mg methadone daily while admitted STABLE/CHRONIC ISSUES: ======================= # Biliary Ductal Dilation: Initially concerning for cholangitis given elevated AP and Tbili w/CBD dilation, however no e/o systemic infection.

ACTIVE ISSUES: ============== # Pulmonary mass: Nodules seen on prior imaging, though left lower mass is new on imaging and concerning for malignancy. Pt. does not have significant smoking history. Patient informed of mass and indicated that he would not want surgery or chemotherapy. After significant discussion with son and pt. about risks of biopsy esp. if no treatment would occur, it was decided not to biopsy and to pursue palliative care. Outpatient palliative care follow-up was arranged, and the patient was discharged to a SNF with a new Rx for home oxygen. # Urinary retention: Likely source of flank and abdominal pain given 1000cc urine on bladder acan and hx of BPH s/p TURP and chronic urinary retention. Pt. has had difficulties with urinary retention for the past year and has even been prescribed straight caths at home. Unfortunately, it does not seem he has been using his straight caths at home given his significant retention on admission to the floor. Cause of urinary retention is unclear. Most likelyy due to BPH as he is already on finasteride and furosemide and CT confirmed enlarged prostate. Urethral obstruction less likely given ease of foley placement. No signs of cord compression as sensation and mobility intact per son's report. Constipation may also be exacerbating retention. Foley placed on admission with good effect. The patient was discharged to a SNF with a foley in place, and outpatient urology follow-up was arranged. # A-on-CKD: Likely due to combination of urinary retention and hypovolemia given poor PO and sig post-obstructive diuresis. His Cr improved from 3.5 to 2.3 with foley placement and PO hydration. He was also diuresed for a CHF exacerbation and his Cr bumped to 2.8; diuresis was held and his Cr trended back down to 2.4 at discharge. His home torsemide 20 mg PO BID was restarted at discharge. # Pneumonia Given intermittent hypoxemia and SOB, cough productive of tan sputum, and new RLL infiltrate on CXR, patient was started on Levofloxacin 500 mg Q48H (renally dosed) for a total of 7 days of antibiotics. His cough and respiratory status improved with ABx and his WBC downtrended. # CHF exacerbation Patient was intermittently hypoxemic on this admission to the low ___ on 3L, whereas he had previously not been on oxygen. BNP was 23,000 on ___, CXR w/ pulmonary edema, worsening ___ edema and ronchorous breath sounds. He was diuresed and put out well with IV Lasix. Diuresis was stopped when his Cr bumped to 2.8. His respiratory status improved and at discharge he was satting 100% on 3L NC. He was provided with compression stockings to alleviate ___ edema, and was instructed to keep his legs elevated when in chair. # Constipation: Patient experiences chronic constipation, which was thought to be contributing to his abdominal pain on admission. He was continued on an aggressive bowel regimen and was given including miralax, lactulose, bisacodyl suppositories, and a tap water enema. Manual disimpaction was attempted, but there was no stool in the rectal vault. KUB revealed stool higher up in the colon. He finally had a large bowel movement after receiving PO Magnesium Citrate, and was discharged with a new Rx for weekly magnesium citrate. CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== # COPD: Pt. with significant wheezing on admission. He was continued on home spiriva and started on Advair as well as albuterol nebulizers. He required nebulizers intermittently throughout this hospitalization, and by discharge his respiratory status had improved significantly. # PACEMAKER: Patient missed his outpatient pacemaker check for ___ ___ ___ being hospitalized. EP interrogated his pacemaker in-house and found no abnormalities; 3 month follow-up in device clinic was recommended and arranged. # CAD s/p CABG and CHF: Continued home ASA, metoprolol, torsemide, and simvastatin. Spironolactone initially held given hyperkalemia; this was restarted prior to discharge TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== - Patient will need to have a potassium level checked on ___ to ensure it is not uptrending (was 5.4 at discharge) - Patient started on once weekly Magnesium Citrate for chronic constipation, with an addittional PRN Rx for interval constipation during the week - Patient is being discharged with a foley for urinary retention and will require routine foley care. Urology follow-up was arranged. - Outpatient palliative care follow-up was set up regarding the patient's lung mass that likely represents a primary malignancy. Patient and family aware and elected not to pursue further diagnosis or treatment. - Patient discharged on levofloxacin for a total of a 7 day course of ABx for PNA. - Please coordindinate follow-up with the patient's new PCP, ___. ___ at ___ to establish care. - It is unclear if the patient will need home O2 long-term; if his oxygen stauration tolerates, he may be weaned off. - Ongoing discussion with PCP regarding utility of repeat imaging for lung mass Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Walks only a short distance. Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, It was a true pleasure to take care of you during this admission and I'm glad we are able to get you back to your wife. You came in with bladder obstruction which caused kidney injury. While you were here we placed a foley catheter into your bladder to allow your urine to drain. You will need to keep the foley in place until you see Urology in follow up. Your kidney function is much improved with the catheter in place. On imaging of your chest a tumor was noted in your lungs which likely represents lung cancer. After discussions with you, your family and the diagnostic specialists at internventional radiology it was decided that we would not pursue a biopsy of the tissue given the high risks associated with the procedure. We have scheduled an appointment with palliative care for you, so that any symptoms you have going forward can be managed and so that you remain comfortable and cared for going forward. While you were here you had extra fluid on your body, which we removed with intravenous medications. Your breathing is much more comfortable and so you can resume your home regimen of torsemide upon discharge. Lastly, you developed a pneumonia during your stay here and so are being discharged with an antibiotic you will need to take for the next 6 days. You are already improving in the short time that you've been taking it. Weigh yourself every morning, call MD if weight goes up more than 3 lbs. Followup Instructions: ___

No pulmonary edema. Brief Hospital Course: SUMMARY STATEMENT: Ms. ___ is a ___ woman with a history of HTN, HLD, T2DM, HFpEF, atrial fibrillation on warfarin (CHADSVASC 8) and amiodarone, moderate AS, as well as bilateral ICA aneurysms status post coiling, COPD, ESRD on HD ___ who presented with chest pain likely in setting of increased rates ___ atrial fibrillation/flutter, admitted with initial plan for TEE and cardioversion. Spontaneously converted back to sinus rhythm on ___ at 0700 and remained in sinus until discharge. She was managed for subtherapeutic INR, with no other active issues. She was discharged home in stable condition. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ================== [ ] Weight at discharge 201.06 lb (91.2 kg) [ ] Hemoglobin at discharge 9.4 and stable in 9s-10s range [ ] INR at discharge: 1.8 (please see warfarin dosing sheet. Patient was discharged with rising INR. She was otherwise well and so discharged with plan to follow up with PCP for INR monitoring. INR goal ___ [ ] ___ consider need for atrial ablation for atrial fibrillation/ flutter in this patient if rhythm control continues to be challenging. [ ] Please follow-up medication adherence as patient was confused about whether she should be on amiodarone. She was restarted while inpatient. [ ] She was trialed on metoprolol though this was discontinued due to bradycardia [ ] Offered ___ services for medication improvement prior to discharge, patient declined. Recommend ongoing discussion to improve medication compliance. ACTIVE ISSUES: ============== # Atrial flutter/fibrillation The patient was noted to be in and out of atrial fibrillation/flutter while in the ED. She reportedly had not been taking her amiodarone due to confusion about whether she should be taking the medication, which was thought to be the likely instigating factor. There was no evidence of hemodynamic instability and volume status was euvolemic after dialysis. Ischemia was considered unlikely with flat troponins. The patient remained in a-fib/flutter on telemetry on the floor (maximum rates in the 130s), and was relatively asymptomatic with occasional sensation of palpitations, no chest pain, SOB or lightheadedness. She was given fractionated metoprolol for rate control and started on a heparin drip for anticoagulation for a sub-therapeutic INR of 1.5 at presentation. She was noted to spontaneously convert to sinus rhythm on ___ at 0700, where she remained until discharge. - Resumed amiodarone 200mg daily - Discontinued metoprolol tartrate on ___ due to bradycardia; the patient noted that she had been on Toprol in the outpatient setting which was discontinued for low heart rates. - INR was 1.8 at discharge, heparin gtt was continued until d/c. Patient was instructed to follow-up with her PCP who monitors her INR - Will need close follow-up for INR check - Notably, INR was therapeutic until ___ last check at ___, not therapeutic on admission - ___ consider ablation in future - TSH was checked and was normal at 1.2 on admission # Chest pain, resolved The patient noted a history of chest pain that had been intermittent for a somewhat extended period of time, most likely related to her rates related to a-fib/ flutter with RVR. In ___ she had a that showed stress w/ infarct, no reversible findings. She had normal HRs at recent office visit and was reporting similar CP, unclear if paroxysmal fib resulted in CP vs underlying vascular disease. The patient has significant risk factors for CAD, so this must remain on the differential, although there was no concern for ischemia this admisison. Could also be microvascular vs atypical. Of note, CP resolved with rate control and troponins remained stable. - Resumed amiodarone prior to discharge, d/c'd metoprolol - Home BP meds were continued as per below - Consider repeat nuclear stress test at future time if patient has repeat symptoms ================ CHRONIC ISSUES: ================ # ESRD on HD The patient was seen by the Nephrology HD consult service during hospitalization and received HD on ___ per her usual HD schedule. - Medications were dosed by HD guidelines and nephrotoxins were avoided - Home Velphoro non-formulary, was given sevelamer inpatient # HTN - Home felodipine was held and patient was given amlodipine while inpatient - Continued home hydralazine - Continued home clonidine # HLD - Continued home atorvastatin # T2DM - Home glipizide was held during hospitalization and resumed at discharge - ISS given while in-house # COPD - Continued home albuterol inhaler # PTSD - Continued home clonazepam # Gout - Continued home allopurinol #CODE: Full Code #CONTACT: HCP: ___, Daughter, Home: ___, Cell: ___ Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is a ___ y/o female with stiff person syndrome, neurogenic bladder s/p suprapubic catheter, hypertension and IDDM who presented with worsening total body edema. #. Total body edema: The patient had developed worsening edema over the 2 weks leading up to admission. This was not improved by oral lasix. In the hospital the patient received intravenous lasix and had brisk urinary output. She was also placed on a strict 1.5L fluid restriction. The patient's edema drastically improved over the subsequent days. Amytriptiline was stopped as this may have been contributing to increased thirst. The patient was discharged on torsemide 20mg daily and encouraged to maintain a strict fluid restriction. Will follow closely with her primary care physician. # Hyponatremia: Chronic in nature although was slightly below baseline on admission. Improved with fluid restriction. Should be monitored with ongoing diuresis and plans were made for patient to have laboratory work done on an outpatient basis. # Bacteuria: The patient was noted to have an abnormal UA on admission. Started on antimicrobial therapy but this was stopped as paient reported no Sx c/w UTI and has indwelling cath, so some pyuria and bacteriuria is expected. A urine culture was (-). #. IDDM: Stable.

Course c/b acute hypoxic & hypercarbic respiratory failure, hyperkalemia, acute-on-chronic ___, & bradycardia, now resolved. ================ ACUTE ISSUES ================ #Acute hypoxic respiratory failure, resolved #Acute hypercarbic respiratory failure, resolved #Acute on chronic diastolic heart failure On presentation (___), Mr. ___ had shortness of breath, and an initial ED O2 sat in the ___, with VBG concerning for hypoxic respiratory failure. He had a CXR showing pulmonary edema. He was transferred to the MICU, and treated with BiPAP, nitro, 2x IV Lasix bolus, & duonebs. His respiratory status significantly improved to baseline. He received an TTE, showing no systolic dysfunction and an enlarged left ventricle. Etiology of respiratory failure was thought to be multifactorial w/ likely heart failure decompensation in the setting of diastolic dysfunction with longstanding HTN. Other possible contributor was potential acute COPD exacerbation, given significant past smoking history & wheezing on initial exam with improvement on duonebs, though he has never had a formal diagnosis. CT abdomen and pelvis showed few inflammatory nodules w/ small effusion and there was high suspicion for COPD exacerbation, so Mr. ___ was started on azithromycin and prednisone. Upon transfer to the medicine floor on ___, he had no symptoms of shortness of breath and had no respiratory distress. Additionally, Mr. ___ had no sputum production or cough, so antibiotics and prednisone were stopped, with low suspicion for underlying infection. Leukocytosis was likely related to stress in the setting of hypoxic respiratory failure, and downtrended to within normal limits over hospital course. On day of discharge, Mr. ___ had no signs of volume overload or respiratory distress on exam and he had an O2 sat of 91-96% on RA. #Acute-on-chronic kidney injury #Hx of CKD III Mr. ___ was thought to have a baseline Cr of 1.6-1.8 but upon further chart review it appears he may have a new baseline of 2.0. On admission, his initial Cr was elevated to 2.7. His FEUrea was calculated to be 31.4%, which supported a pre-renal etiology. He maintained good urine output and renal ultrasound showed no signs of hydronephrosis, making obstructive etiology unlikely. UA showed moderate blood, high protein and glucose, trace leuks, which was likely due to underlying T2D and the use of foley catheter in the MICU. Urine sediment showed no casts. The most likely etiology ___ was cardiorenal syndrome in the setting of volume overload and venous congestion, with improvement after aggressive furosemide diuresis. Upon transfer to the general medicine floor, Mr. ___ was re-started on his home diuretic regimen. Cr initially downtrended with diuresis, subsequently rising and then improved after fluids. Will plan to hold home diuretic on discharge with close follow up with PCP to restart it. Of note, Mr. ___ was taking bactrim for his right foot wound; however this was stopped on admission due to suspicion for intrinsic AIN. Nephrology was curbsided, and AIN was deemed unlikely, give lack of RBC and WBC casts, and no eosinophilia. Over the course of his hospitalization, Mr. ___ BUN and creatinine improved, and was ___ on day of discharge. #Hyperkalemia On admission, Mr. ___ had hyperkalemia to 6.9 that resolved with calcium gluconate and insulin therapy. Most likely etiology of hyperkalemia was ___. As Mr. ___ kidney function improved with diuresis, his potassium downtrended and remained stable. His EKG was stable, and he had no arrhythmias during admission. Additionally, he denied any symptoms of hyperkalemia such as nausea, weakness, palpitations. Per past records, patient has baseline high K. Plan to have patient recheck his labs prior to his PCP appointment on ___ to ensure stability. #Right foot wound, stable #Right foot cellulitis, resolved Mr. ___ initially presented to ___ on ___ for worsening R foot ulcer. Podiatry evaluated, debrided the wound, and prescribed a 5-day cellulitis treatment with Bactrim. His wound culture from ___ grew polymicrobial organisms. On admission, his Bactrim was discontinued in the setting of an ___. Podiatry was consulted to re-evaluate his wound, and approved holding antibiotic given that there was no acute process on evaluation, and the right foot appeared stable, with resolution of cellulitis. Blood cultures showed no growth to date. Plan was made for Mr. ___ to follow-up in ___ clinic on discharge to re-evaluate his foot ulcer. =============== CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== #Diabetes Mellitus, poorly controlled #Glucosuria: Last HgbA1c 10.4 on ___. Per patient, he is only taking metformin at home, and does not want to take insulin because of anxiety with self-insulin injections. He is in close follow-up with PCP ___, and has been having ongoing discussions to explore alternatives to insulin shots. He was maintained on insulin sliding scale with nightly glargine for basal control. #Hypertension: BPs were stable over admission. His labetolol was stopped in the setting of isolated episodes of bradycardia in the MICU, however was resumed once transferred to the general medicine floor. He was discharged with stable BP and HR, stable on home labetolol and amolidipine. #Bradycardic to ___, resolved Mr. ___ had isolated episodes of bradycardia to the ___ while in the MICU. This was likely secondary to hyperkalemia, but resolved w/ improvement in potassium and kidney function. Patient has been mentating well. His heart rates were closely monitored over the remainder of his admission and continued to be stable. #Abdominal Pain, resolved Mr. ___ initially presented to ED with burning lower abdominal pain; however collateral discussion with his sister revealed that it was his shortness of breath that initiated his visit to the ED. His abdominal pain resolved after a watery bowel movement on the morning of ___, and was likely secondary constipation or viral gastroenteritis. Abdominal CT w/ contrast did not show an acute process, and he did not experience any abdominal pain throughout the rest of his admission. #Troponinemia iso CKD, stable While in the ED, Mr. ___ had two reads of 0.03, 0.04, with no concerns for acute changes on EKG. His troponinemia was likely chronically elevated in the setting o CKD. =================== TRANSITIONAL ISSUES =================== New Meds: None Stopped/Held Meds: Bactrim, Lasix Changed Meds: None Follow-up appointments: as per above Post-Discharge Follow-up Labs Needed: BUN, creatinine, K [] Patient's home Lasix was held on discharge due to hypovolemia.

The patient exercised for 9 minutes of a modified Gervino protocol and stopped for fatigue. The estimated peak MET capacity was 3.5 which represents a poor functional capacity for his age. No arm, neck, back or chest discomfort was reported by the patient throughout the study. There were no significant ST segment changes during exercise or in recovery. The rhythm was sinus with rare isolated vpbs. Appropriate increase in systolic BP with a blunted HR on beta blocker therapy. IMPRESSION: No anginal type symptoms or ischemic EKG changes. Nuclear report sent separately. ___ IMPRESSION: Subacute to chronic nonocclusive thrombus within the proximal aspect of one of the right superficial femoral veins, which are duplicated. This finding is unchanged since ___. V/Q Scan IMPRESSION: Low likelihood ratio for recent pulmonary embolism. CXR IMPRESSION: No evidence of pneumonia Brief Hospital Course: ___ year old man with acute on chronic diastolic HF, Hypertension, DM, CKD who presents with shortness of breath, weight gain, consistent with an acute exacerbation of diastolic heart failure. #Acute exacerbation of diastolic HF: Patient presented with symptoms of left and right sided failure. There was high suspicion in the ED that he had a PE given his chronic and unchanged RLE DVT- however his DDimer was negative and VQ scan unremarkable. He was admitted to the medicine service where further history revealed a 23 lb gradual weight gain in the past few months with high salt diet. He had evidence of volume overload on exam. We diuresed him with 40 mg IV lasix (increased from his home dose 40 mg PO). Patient was also ruled out for ACS. Given the history of chest pain with DOE, we sent the patient for a myocardial stress perfusion study which did not reveal any focal ischemia. However, it did show a mildly depressed EF, indicating systolic as well as previously documented diastolic heart failure. His pioglitazone was held during this time, although it was restarted on discharge. It would be possible to consider alternative agents for his diabetes given the concern regarding his EF, although given his current deferring of insulin therapy, that discussion should continue as an outpatient. His breathing notably improved during his admission. We would recommend that the patient see a cardiologist as an outpatient, although the patient deferred this direct referral, and expressed the wish to speak with his internist prior to this referral. #Troponin leak, consistent with demand-mediated ischemia: The patient was thought to have demand ischemia given no obvious EKG changes concerning for ACS. Pt had Tr of 0.04 during past admission but this was during ___. We cycled his troponins which downtrended and monitored on tele. He underwent stress perfusion study as above, which did not reveal reversible ischemia at the exercise level achieved. He also noted that he did not experience his symptoms of chest pain nor dyspnea he experienced with exertion prior to admission. #Hyperkalemia- appears long standing per notes, now improved. Patient was recently on losartan which may have acutely worsened his hyperkalemia. He received 15 g of kayexalate in the ED and his losartan was held. We did not restart this medication, as given his hyperkalemia in the past in the setting of CKD, an ___ seemed relatively contraindicated at this time. #HTN- patient generally 120s-130s systolic as an outpatient. He peaked at 160s systolic in the ED. Transfer vitals with SBP 202, but improved initially with PO hydralazine q 6 hrs. We then increased his labetolol from 100 to 200 mg BID. Losartan was held for hyperkalemia. #RLE DVT- per ___ it is old and stable. Patient states he was treated with anticoagulation the past, which we were able to confirm with his internist. -PCP ___ follow up regarding if further treatment is warranted, given it's persistence despite prior treatment. Will defer to his internist, which we discussed both with the patient and his internist. Chronic Issues #Gout- continued allopurinol ___ mg daily #DM- Held oral meds while in house and continued patient on ___. Transitional Issues -Pt's old RLE DVT should be revisited with PCP to determine if the full course he received previously was adequate, given persistence of imaging findings notable for chronic clot. -We recommend diabetes follow-up either with an endocrine or ___ provider, as well as renal and cardiology follow-up for the end-organ related damage to his hypertension and diabetes. The patient noted that he preferred to discuss follow-up plans with his internist, and deferred having our team schedule these directly at the time of discharge. We spoke directly with his internist, given the patient's wishes, and he will work with the patient to address these follow-up needs. In particular, we suspect the patient may soon benefit from insulin therapy, although he strongly deferred this treatment on discharge home.

No additional new intracranial abnormalities. Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is a ___ year old right handed lady with history of BPPV, vestibular neuritis, sensineural hearing loss, essential tremor, pre-DM, HLD who presents with acute onset visual changes 2 weeks ago for which she went to ophthalmology on the day of admission and was diagnosed with right homonymous hemianopia and subsequently referred to the emergency department. She was in her usual state of health and was reading the newspaper on ___ when she suddenly had some difficulty "tracking the lines". She didn't think she lost her vision or had missing vision. She was able to read the words but does think there was an issue with comprehending the meaning. She has trouble describing what she means by this. She attributed this to just perhaps the small print. She was doing much better reading larger print on her phone. She denies that she ever couldn't read at all. She never had to spell the letters or say them out loud. She has not been bumping into anything on her right and she has been able to drive. She does not think she had any associated weakness, tingling/numbness, memory issues, dizziness or headache. She thinks she snores. She doesn't have palpitations. She finally had optho appointment today at which time a dense right homonymous hemianopia was noted WITHOUT macular sparing. She was referred to ___. She does report that about a year ago she had an episode of isolated vertical diplopia lasting a minute. Per Atrius records by Dr. ___ occurred while walking down stairs. She had had cataract surgery at some point that year. ESR and CRP were normal. MRI brain with and without contrast, MRA brain/neck at ___ ___ showed no acute infarct, normal MRAs, tortuous but otherwise normal vertebral arteries. TTE ___ showed LVEF approximately 60%, trace-mild aortic regurgitation, mild mitral regurgitation, no shunt by color Doppler. Holter monitor ___ showed sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia, occasional APBs, one run of SVT. The transient diplopia was felt to be possible migraine variant but given possibility of TIA, she was started on ASA. Patient reports she has had several more episodes of vertical diplopia since that initial one. The longest was 10 minute episode about 1 week ago. She woke up at 3AM and noticed it. Seemed the same regardless if she looked right or left; perhaps worse with her head back. This went away and was not associated with any other symptoms. Hospital Course: She was initially admitted to the stroke service, with an initial NIHSS 3 and last known well 2 weeks prior to admission. Her exam was notable for right homonymous hemianopia, mild word finding difficulties, and mild right facial droop. Her initial MRI showed thin cortical diffusion-weighted hyperintense signal along the left parietooccipital lobe and possible potential milder signal along the right parieto-occipital lobe without corresponding signal abnormality on FLAIR or T2. We felt this was highly atypical for stroke given the lack of FLAIR correlate and crossing PCA/MCA territories. We evaluated for whether she could have an occipital seizure with an EEG. The EEG showed frequent delta slowing over the left temporal region, at times sharply contoured, with rare LRDAs. There was also asymmetric PDR on the left side indicating occipital dysfunction, and GRDA indicating mild encephalopathy, but no clear electrographic seizures or epileptiform discharges. Therefore, seizure was felt to be extremely unlikely. We also evaluated and ruled out cortical venous thrombosis and PRES (no risk factors). She was transferred to the general neurology service for further workup as her presentation was not thought to be vascular in nature. We then considered MELAS given her history of idiopathic sensorineural hearing loss, and sent metabolic and genetic testing. Her visual symptoms continued to progress during the admission with denser right hemianopia, some left visual field involvement, and increased word finding difficulties. Repeat MRI showed evolving and slightly worsening findings: "Redemonstration of diffusion-weighted hyperintense signal involving the left parietooccipital cortex, with associated decreased ASL perfusion in the left occipital lobe with similar distribution and extent. Interval development of subtle cortical thickening and FLAIR hyperintensity involving the median occipital lobe most likely represents manifestation of the perfusion abnormality." Ultimately, we felt that this would be an atypical presentation of MELAS given the lack of resolution of her symptoms, her age at presentation, and her normal lactate (including post-prandial lactate), CK, and minimally elevated pyruvate, with other labs pending at discharge. Given her imaging findings and predominant visual symptoms, we considered ___ variant CJD and sent ___ and RT-QuIC from the CSF, with results pending at discharge. She was also evaluated by Neuro-ophthalmology on ___, and her exam showed Right homonymous hemianopia without significant neglect in the setting of left parietal/occipital cortical diffusion restriction sparing the white matter and in a non-vascular distribution, simultanagnosia, and progressive cognitive decline, as well as right hypertropia with full ductions, likely decompensated phoria. She was initially started on ASA and Plavix given our first concern for stroke, and she was ultimately discharged on aspirin. We also started coenzyme Q10 given our concern for a possible mitochondrial disorder. She was set up with home ___, OT, nursing and social work. She will follow up with neuro-ophthalmology within the next ___ weeks. We have referred her to cognitive neurology and brain fit club for cognitive rehab. We also contacted her outpatient neurologist Dr. ___ to coordinate follow up. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1. Aspirin 81 mg PO DAILY 2.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. ___, You were admitted to the hospital because of difficulties with your vision as well as word-finding difficulties. You were initially admitted to the Stroke service because we were concerned for a stroke, but your symptoms and your MRI did not fit that diagnosis. You were then transferred to the General Neurology team. We did 2 brain MRIs, a spinal tap, an EEG, CTs, an echocardiogram, and multiple lab tests. These tests evaluated for stroke, seizure, infection, metabolic or genetic causes, and dementia. We are still waiting for many of the results from our lab testing. You were also evaluated by our Neuro-ophthalmology colleagues. At this time, we do not have a definitive diagnosis for your symptoms, and we need more information from the lab tests that are still pending. Once we have these test results back, we can come up with a plan for further workup if needed. We added co-enzyme Q10 to your medication list. This is a naturally occurring antioxidant that can help many metabolic or mitochondrial illnesses. We will schedule a follow up appointment in Neurology and Neuro-ophthalmology as below. You should not drive until your vision improves and you are evaluated formally by Drive Wise. It was a pleasure taking care of you! Your ___ Neurology team Followup Instructions: ___

Chief Complaint: Weakness Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: Upper endoscopy and ERCP with biliary sphincterotomy and placement of a 10 mm x 16 mm fully covered metal stent History of Present Illness: ___ is a ___ year old woman with recent diagnosis of metastatic cancer to retroperitoneal nodes, biopsy c/w colon cancer (although primary tumor not yet identified), who is admitted from the ___ with elevated bilirubin. Initial admission on ___ with abdominal pain and retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy led to diagnosis of metastatic cancer (presumably colon cancer based on retroperitoneal biopsy). Since then, she was hospitalized at ___ on ___ for confusion. Ultimately found to have hydronephrosis, ___, and UTI. She underwent ureteral stenting. Apparently MCRP was done which did not show biliary obstruction. Afterwards, she developed recurrent dysuria and was prescribed nitrofurantoin on ___. She was seen in ___ clinic on ___. She reported persistent dysuria with associated weakness. She was found to have obstructive pattern liver dysfunction, and she was referred to the ___ for further evaluation. In retrospect, Ms. ___ reports that she has noticed darkened urine for the last 4 days and paler "yellow" stools since last week. She endorses 2 days of worsening nausea without emesis. Her daughter mentioned that she appeared more yellow over the last day. She also thinks she has had worsening right sided abdominal pain x 1 day. Her pain is currently "moderate" and achy. Otherwise however, she denies fevers/chills/night sweats. No cold symptoms, cough, chest pain, palpitations, SOB, confusion, bleeding, rashes, focal numbness/tingling. She endorses generalized weakness and poor appetite since diagnosis. She has been taking nitrofurantoin for 4 days as prescribed. In the ___, initial VS were pain 0, T 97.2, HR 87, BP 107/55, RR 14, O2 96%RA. Initial labs notable for Na 140, K 3.7, HCO3 29, Cr 1.2, Ca 8.8, Mg 1.1, P 3.1, ALT 120, AST 126, ALP 1605, LDH 1129, TBili 6.1, DBili 5.3, Alb 3.3, lipase 63, CEA 16.7, WBC 7.2, HCT 31.6, PLT 376. Liver US showed new 2.2 cm mass in right hepatic lobe, along with new intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary dilation. CXR showed right pleural effusion. Patient was given IV NS and 2g IV Mg. VS prior to transfer were pain 0, HR 80, BP 113/61, RR 18, O2 98%RA. A complete 10-point review of systems was performed and was negative unless otherwise noted in the HPI. Past Medical History: PAST ONCOLOGIC HISTORY: The patient reports being at her baseline (relatively limited) a month before this presentation. At that time she noticed that she was getting weak and she had a few episodes of falls (despite using her walker). Upon further discussion she reported that she lost 20lbs within the last 2 months due to poor appetite. Recently (___), she went to ___ for abdominal pain. She was found to have UTI. However, CT imaging done for evaluation of pain showed extensive lymphadenopathy, Thus, she was transferred to ___ for further evaluation. On ___ she underwent biopsy of retroperitoneal LN that showed metastatic adenocarcinoma. By immunohistochemistry, tumor cells show the following staining profile: ___ Positive: CK20, CK7 (focal), CDX-2, TTF-1 (focal), synaptophysin (focal), chromogranin (focal). ___ Negative: p40, GATA3, PAX-8. These results were thought to be consistent with poorly differentiated colorectal adenocarcinoma. We met with the patient on ___. We discussed about our D/D and our diagnostic algorithm in order to confirm the diagnosis. The plan was to do a PET CT and upper/lower endoscopy. The patient had the PET but did not have the endoscopies due to hospitalization in OSH.

A 2.2 cm mass in the right hepatic lobe is not seen on recent prior CT abdomen pelvis and concerning for metastasis given history of GI cancer. 2. New intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary dilation, suspected to be likely secondary to extrinsic compression of the distal common bile duct by enlarged periportal lymph nodes, though the source of obstruction is not visualized on the current ultrasound exam. 3. Patent portal vasculature with appropriate direction of flow. 4. Incidentally noted right pleural effusion. ___ CXR Unchanged moderate right pleural effusion with associated mild right basilar compressive atelectasis.

Otherwise, little change. Brief Hospital Course: SUMMARY: ======== ___ year old woman with recent diagnosis of metastatic cancer to retroperitoneal nodes with duodenal pathology showing mixed adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine carcinoma who is admitted after found to have obstructive jaundice now improving following placement of a fully covered metal stent in the bile duct. ACTIVE ISSUES: ============== # Metastatic mixed adenocarcinoma/neuroendocrine carcinoma: PET on ___ was unrevealing for primary tumor. She underwent endoscopy on ___, which revealed a cratered duodenal bulb ulcer which was biopsied and found to be consistent with mixed adenocarcinoma/neuroendocrine carcinoma. Her nausea was controlled with Compazine and Zofran. Her home allopurinol was continued. Her home pain regimen was continued, including 10 mg oxycontin TID + 20 mg qHS with oxycodone PRN breakthrough, as well as Tylenol as needed (<2g/day). She will undergo chemotherapy initiation following discharge. # Malignant biliary obstruction Her Tbili was noted to be 6.1 on admission (direct bili 5.3), likely due to malignant obstruction. RUQ US with intra and extrahepatic biliary dilation thought to be secondary to extrinsic compression of the distal common bile duct by enlarged periportal lymph nodes. There was no evidence of cholangitis or other infection. She underwent upper endoscopy and ERCP on ___ Cholangiogram showed a severe stricture in the lower third of the bile duct. Biliary sphincterotomy was performed. A 10 mm x 16 mm fully covered metal stent was placed. Following this, Bili and AST/ALT normalized. # Coagulopathy INR was noted to be 1.4 on admission, likely due to hepatic dysfunction resulting from malignancy. However coagulopathy may also be related to nutritional deficiency caused by poor PO intake. Coags were trended and improved during the admission without direct intervention. # Moderate Malnutrition in Context of Acute Illness Decreased appetite in the setting of metastatic cancer. Electrolytes were monitored and repleted as needed. Nutrition was consulted. Her diet was advanced to diabetic/consistent carb. Daily standing scale weights were obtained. The option of tube feeds were recommended by the Nutritionist, which should be discussed with the patient in the future if her oral intake remains poor. # Deconditioning- The patient was noted to be deconditioned in the setting of metastatic cancer, poor oral intake and prolonged hospitalization. Physical Therapy evaluated the patient and worked with her during this admission. Following discharge from the hospital, the patient should continue home physical therapy. CHRONIC CONDITIONS: =================== # UTI - The patient has a history of MDR E coli. Started nitrofurantoin prior to admission. UCx on this admission showed contamination only. She completed a 7 day course of Macrobid on ___. # ___ edema- venous insufficiency- reports edema has started with prolonged hospitalization recently. TTE ___ with EF 60%; indeterminate diastolic function. Her legs were elevated while in bed and her home HCTZ was continued. # Moderate right pleural effusion Noted on ___ CXR. She denied any dyspnea or right sided chest discomfort. Moderate effusion was noted to be low level FDG avid on PET. Further workup was not performed as she had no respiratory or infectious symptoms during this admission. # Elevated Creatinine # Malignant ureteral obstruction s/p stenting Her Cr was noted to be 1.2 on admission, elevated from her baseline ~1. Her Cr was monitored daily and normalized during the admission following IVF. # Hypothyroidism - her home levothyroxine was continued. Her TSH was checked given her malaise on admission, and noted to be 4.5 on ___. Levothyroxine titration was deferred to the outpatient setting given her acute illness currently. #COPD on nocturnal 2L - Her home Breo ellipta was held and fluticasone-salmeterol was given while in the hospital instead, in addition to albuterol PRN. She received 2L O2 by NC at night. # Mood disorder- Continued home duloxetine, alprazolam, lamotrigine and modafinil. # DMT2- Held home metformin. Low dose sliding scale insulin was given. A1c was noted to be 5.8 this admission. # HTN- Continued home HCTZ. # GERD- Continued home omeprazole. # Chronic pain- Continued home oxycodone. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== [] The outpatient oncology team should consider whether it will be possible for the patient to undergo chemotherapy at a location closer to her home, which was requested by both the patient and her family during this admission. [] ___ was checked on admission given her malaise, and was notified to be 4.5 on ___. Levothyroxine titration was deferred to the outpatient setting, when she is no longer acutely ill. [] Port should be placed prior to initiation of chemotherapy. She last received antibiotics on ___. This has not been ordered at the time of discharge. (Two weeks following antibiotics will be ___ [] Chemotherapy will be initiated as an outpatient. [] If PO intake is inadequate, the patient and her outpatient providers should discuss the appropriateness of tube feeds going forward. Tube feeds were recommended as a potential option by the Nutritionist team during this admission. EMERGENCY CONTACT HCP: ___ (___) ___ CODE: DNR/DNI okay escalation This patient was prescribed, or continued on, an opioid pain medication at the time of discharge (please see the attached medication list for details). As part of our safe opioid prescribing process, all patients are provided with an opioid risks and treatment resource education sheet and encouraged to discuss this therapy with their outpatient providers to determine if opioid pain medication is still indicated.

PATHOLOGY --------- Chest nodule: pending Brief Hospital Course: ___ year old female with hypertension, hyperlipidemia, osteoarthritis, GERD, hiatal hernia, presents with persisent chest pain, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. # Abdominal pain: evidence of colitis on CT scan, with differential diagnosis including infectious vs inflammatory vs ischemic. Stool culture revealed Campylobacter infection, and patient was placed on a 3-day course of azithromycin. IBD was considered less likely, although can have bi-modal age distribution. Though she has hyperlipidemia, hypertension, but no post-prandial abdominal pain, ischemic colitis was considered unlikely as well. Patient was guaiac negative in ___. ESR and CRP were elevated. Ova and parasite testing was negative x 2. Patient was provided IV fluids, and her diet was slowly advanced. GI was consulted and recommended infectious work-up, and they will pursue colonoscopy as an outpatient. She will follow up with GI as an outpatient, and colonoscopy will be scheduled at this follow-up. . # Chest pain: patient has ruled out for ACS multiple times in past month. On admission, she had a stable EKG and negative troponin. It is likely that her pain is gastrointestinal in etiology, differential includes her known hiatal hernia vs gastritis vs persistent H. Pylori vs pancreatitis (given mild lipase elevation). Lipase elevation was mild and can be seen with nausea/vomiting. She was treated for H. Pylori in ___, stool antigen was negative on this admission. She was continued on a PPI and H2 blocker, and sucralfate was added to her regimen. It's also possible that the nodule in her chest was contributing her pain, though the patient denied this. # Chest nodule: on examination, it was noted that had a protuberant area over her right middle chest. Chest X-ray was unremarkable. CT chest showed a small nodule on the right chest wall. LDH on admission was elevated. Uric acid was also elevated on admission. The patient was placed on allopurinol. General Surgery was consulted and performed biopsy on the chest nodule, with pathology results pending currently. She will follow up with Oncology as an outpatient to follow up Pathology results. If negative, might consider reactive arthritis (given Campylobacter infection) as cause of sternal pain. # Acute kidney injury: suspect volume depletion in setting of poor PO intake, diarrhea, and recent increase in ACEi dose.

ACUTE ISSUES: # Esophageal Varices/GIB: EGD ___ demonstrate grade III varices (3 cords) in upper esophagus, non-bleeding, as well as mosaic appearance of stomach mucosa with 2 spots of spontaneous bleeding. Clip placed and thermal therapy applied with hemostasis. Likely the source of melena/anemia. Hgb stable since ___. Continued on PPI BID. Per GI, upper esophageal varices are at risk for bleeding, but not as high of a risk as more distal varices given location. No indication for nadolol from variceal standpoint at this time. No recommended interval to repeat EGD and no indication for banding given location. Varices should not prevent anticoagulation if other indications. No need to repeat CTA unless other indication. Source of varices likely increased pressures from significant history of catheters and lines placed causing SVC syndrome and vascular congestion. #Hypotension: Suspect false hypotension given preserved MS, normal lactate, no tachycardia. Known vasculopathy as seen on ___ CTA. Anuric at baseline so cannot use UOP to gauge perfusion. ___ records patient persistently in with SBPs in the ___ there. Started on midodrine in ICU, tapered down and discontinued given lack of improvement in BPs. #Afib: In sinus and rate controlled on admission; afib history is reportedly from prior hospitalization in ___. Chads-Vasc = 2. Per his PCP, no history of blood clots. His SVC syndrome is ___ vascular scarring from numerous lines and procedures in his vasculature causing stenosis. This is likely the source of his varices as well. Anticoagulation held iso recent GIB, risks may outweigh benefits of anticoagulation, and patient in agreement with discontinuing warfarin. Can continue to discuss risks and benefits of anticoagulation with patient in the future. #Pain Management #Anxiety Management Patient on high doses of narcotics and anxiolytics at home, confirmed with PCP that these are chronic doses of these meds and patient maintained on this regimen for numerous years. #Depression/Homicidal ideation: Patient reported he had a bad year and his wife died in ___. he believes the nursing home she was in "smothered her with a pillow." He expressed at one point that he wanted to kill these employees, evaluated by psychiatry who felt this was frustration rather than actual HI. Felt low safety risk to others given his lack of access to weapons, physical limitations, general debilitation. Patient denied HI at time of discharge and was able to admit that this was just said out of anger. # Scrotal pain: Patient reported scrotal pain ___. We obtained scrotal US which showed no evidence of testicular torsion, but did show small hydrocele, left varicocele, & microlithiasis of the left testis. Per urology, no need for intervention or further imaging for microlithiasis or other findings on U/S. Will set up for urologic outpatient follow up for further management/evaluation should symptoms persist. CHRONIC ISSUES: =============== #ESRD on HD: Nephrology consulted, inpatient HD. Normally ___ HD via right tunneled catheter. S/P multiple failed fistulas and numerous failed grafts. #Hypothyroidism: Continued levothyroxine PO 150 mcg QD #PVD sp R SFA stent ASA held iso GIB, then restarted. Discussed statin with patient who agreed with starting. Started atorvastatin 40 mg qpm. #Chronic diastolic HF #MR ___ TR ___ managed through HD. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ========================== [ ] BID PPI should be continued for 4 weeks then transitioned to daily dosing afterwards for minimum of 4 weeks (___). Can reassess need for PPI at all at that time. [ ] Patient's O2 saturations have been in mid to high ___ during hospitalizations and may not require home O2 [ ] Started Tiotropium maintenance inhaler once daily, please continue to evaluate his COPD management and titrate as needed [ ] HBV core Ab positive, Surface Ab negative, may require HBV vaccine [ ] SW filed report with elder services regarding the death of the patient's wife in nursing home to decide if they would like to investigate; please follow up with the investigation [ ] Discharge weight: 57.9 kg (127.65 lb) [ ] Last HD session: ___ [ ] U/S findings as below. If persistent scrotal pain, patient may benefit from urologic follow up. Appointment scheduled at discharge, can cancel if symptoms resolve. Small hydrocele, and left varicocele. Microlithiasis of the left testis. The presence of microlithiasis alonein the absence of other risk factors is not an indication for regular scrotal ultrasound, further ultrasound screening or biopsy. Ultrasound is recommended in the follow-up of patient is at risk, where risk factors other than microlithiasis are present.

No definite organ injury, although trace hemorrhage is noted in the right pericolic gutter, the only specific sign of injury on this study. 3. Findings of fluid overload including mild pulmonary edema, pleural effusions, ascites, anasarca. 4. 6 mm right upper lobe nodular opacity surrounding ground-glass opacity could be inflammatory or infectious. Followup CT could be considered in one year if there are risk factors such as smoking, strong family history of pulmonary malignancy or occupational exposure. 5. Pericardial thickening without effusion, probably chronic. There may be some mass effect on the right heart chambers associated with this although not likely to represent an acute process. This may be due to sequela of renal disease. ___ ECHO The left atrial volume index is SEVERELY increased. The right atrium is mildly enlarged. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with a normal cavity size. There is suboptimal image quality to assess regional left ventricular function. Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal. Quantitative biplane left ventricular ejection fraction is 72 %. There is no resting left ventricular outflow tract gradient. Dilated right ventricular cavity with normal free wall motion. Intrinsic right ventricular systolic function is likely lower due to the severity of tricuspid regurgitation.

Brief Hospital Course: TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== [] Patient has persistently low BPs iso peripheral vascular disease, so BPs may be unreliable. He mentated well with normal lactate with BPs in ___. His goal MAP is 55 mmHg. [] Please consider referral to Psychiatry for management of anxiety and depression. [] Varices seen in the upper esophagus w/o evidence of liver disease on imaging and unremarkable labs. Consider fibroscan or further workup as an outpatient. MICU Course =========== Presented after a fall. Evaluated by neurosurgery on arrival who did not recommend surgical intervention. He was initially admitted to the MICU for labs concerning for hypercarbic respiratory failure. He was also hypotensive requiring levo fed briefly. The Levophed was quickly weaned off. He was never intubated or put on BiPAP for his respiratory failure. His blood pressures were persistently in the ___ systolic. He was mentating appropriately, with a normal lactate. This is assumed to be his baseline. He is s/p prednisone burst for presumed COPD exacerbation ___ s/p azithromycin 500mg x 3 days (___) While in the MICU, he was found to have tachy-brady syndrome. Electrophysiology, cardiac surgery, and interventional radiology were all consulted. There was an attempted pacemaker placement for his tachy-brady syndrome on ___ via an attempted R-femoral venous access. However, the pacemaker was not successfully placed due to difficult vascular access. The patient was then transferred to the cardiology floor while awaiting multidisciplinary discussion between electrophysiology, cardiac surgery, vascular surgery, interventional radiology with a approach as to how best to implant the pacemaker. FLOOR COURSE ============ On the floor, there were continued discussion regarding how best to place a pacemaker. Consulting teams requested the operative reports of his prior surgeries so as to better understand his anatomy, however these unfortunately could not be obtained as it was unknown where he had had these surgeries. Consulting teams continued to discuss best approach for providing patient a pacemaker, with a tentative plan for access through his tunneled line or possible epicardial leads. He continued to be tachycardic to the 110s, as well as hypotensive to SBPs ___. He triggered on the floor multiple times for unstable vitals, however continued to mentate well, and had normal lactate on each check. His respiratory status remained stable on his ___ baseline NC requirement. Nephrology attempted perform HD while on the floor, however patient could only tolerate 1 hr of dialysis due to significant hypotension. They stated they would not pursue further dialysis on the floor given his hypotension. On ___, patient began to have episodes of very symptomatic bradycardia lasting ___ minutes. He would temporarily lose consciousness, have HRs in the ___, and then spontaneously return to his baseline tachycardia and mental status. He had multiple episodes of this on the floor over the night, with the last episode requiring a few seconds of transcutaneous pacing. This prompted his transfer to the CCU. Patient's floor course was also complicated by significant pain requiring breakthrough oxycodone, as well as significant anxiety, which seemed to worsen his symptoms. CCU COURSE ========== In the CCU, patient was monitored while awaiting pacemaker placement and continued to have several episodes of slow atrial fibrillation associated with episodes of presyncope. Through combined efforts by ___ and EP, patient underwent ___ procedure on ___ to establish venous access through the R groin into the IVC with plan to undergo Micra pacemaker placement on ___. During this procedure, ___ performed angioplasty of the R external iliac which was found to be occluded ___ scarring from prior access of this vein. A dialysis catheter was placed as a placeholder to maintain vascular access for pacemaker placement. During this procedure, patient require both levophed and vasopressin to maintain adequate BPs in setting of anesthesia. The patient remained intubated after this procedure and was maintained on two pressors while sedated. On ___, he had a permanent pacemaker placed and remained intubated since his procedure occurred late. He was successfully extubated in the AM of ___. He was weaned off vasopressin and levophed before transfer to the floor. He was followed by Nephrology for HD. Of note, patient continued to have significant anxiety that was acutely exacerbated by his bradycardic episodes in which patient feels he's about to die. Palliative care was consulted to help assist with management of patient's pain and anxiety. He was deemed clinically stable for floor transfer. ___ COURSE ============ Patient was transferred to the Cardiology service for further management after CCU course. He was started on rate control with metoprolol for his atrial fibrillation. BPs and respiratory status remained stable and volume was managed with HD as he was transitioned back to ___ HD. SUMMARY: ======== ___ man with history of CAD s/p CABG, SVC syndrome and PAD s/p right SFA stent, ESRD (___ HD), atrial fibrillation, chronic hypotension, esophageal varices, COPD on baseline ___ O2, HTN, and HLD who initially presented as transfer from ___ for fall at rehab c/b subdural hematoma and respiratory failure.

Small pneumocephalus is noted. Intraventricular hematoma appears similar in overall size compared to 6 hours ago, with interval redistribution of the hematoma in the ventricles. Enlarged right ventricle is slightly smaller compared to before. Otherwise the remaining enlarged ventricles appear similar to before. CTA: Major intracranial and cervical arteries are patent without occlusion, dissection, or aneurysm. TTE ___ The left atrial volume index is normal. A left-to-right shunt across the interatrial septum is seen at rest c/w a small secundum atrial septal defect. Right to left flow of agitated saline at rest is also seen. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size. Regional left ventricular wall motion is normal. Overall left ventricular systolic function is low normal (LVEF 50-55%). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The diameters of aorta at the sinus, ascending and arch levels 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 structurally normal. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Small secundum type atrial septal defect with left-to-right flow at rest on color Doppler and right-to-left flow of agitated saline at rest. Mild symmetric left ventrricular hypertrophy with preserved regional and low normal global left ventricular systolic function. RENAL ARTERY U/S ___. Slightly limited study, with no evidence of renal artery stenosis. 2. Normal appearance of the renal parenchyma, without stones, masses, or hydronephrosis. B/L LOWER EXT U/S ___: No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right or left lower extremity veins. CTV PELVIS ___: No evidence of pelvic venous thrombosis. MR head w/ contrast ___: Left basal ganglia hemorrhage with intraventricular extension appear similar compared to most recent prior CT done, but appears improved compared to initial CT as described above. No underlying mass or vascular malformation. Imaging follow-up after complete resolution is advised to exclude an underlying mass or vascular malformation with certainty. The ventricular profile is stable and improved compared to initial CT. Right frontal approach external ventricular drain in situ. There are multiple most subacute infarcts in the right basal ganglia and thalamus as well as bilateral occipital and to a lesser degree the posterior parietal and left frontal cortical gray matter as described above. Infarcts in various vascular territories suggest an embolic etiology. Suspected chronic lacunar infarcts also noted in the midbrain bilateral. Hemorrhagic transformation of a left basal ganglia infarct and subsequent hemorrhage should be considered as a possible explanation of all of the above findings. DISCHARGE LABS ============== ___ 05:35AM BLOOD WBC-4.9 RBC-4.53* Hgb-14.3 Hct-41.9 MCV-93 MCH-31.6 MCHC-34.1 RDW-12.7 RDWSD-43.2 Plt ___ ___ 05:35AM BLOOD ___ PTT-30.9 ___ ___ 05:35AM BLOOD Glucose-92 UreaN-18 Creat-1.2 Na-139 K-4.4 Cl-97 HCO___ AnGap-15 ___ 05:35AM BLOOD Calcium-9.9 Phos-3.7 Mg-1.9 Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ man with history notable for presumed alcohol use disorder transferred from OSH for left-sided basal ganglia IPH c/b IVE s/p EVD placement. Agitation, akathisia improved after removal of EVD and discontinuation of Dobhoff tube. Given absence of further nausea, vomiting, or somnolence, VPS shunting was been deferred by neurosurgery. He was initially admitted to neuro ICU from ER intubated and sedated. EVD placed in ER. Post EVD CT done and showed stable hemorrhage. Nicardipine gtt started to maintain SBP < 140. A-line placed. He received intermittent fluid boluses due to low urine output and ___, with creatinine as high as 2.4. On ___, he was noted to have an episode of right gaze preference, LUE stiffness, lasting minutes. A STAT head CT was obtained and showed stable bleed with decreasing ventricle size. Due to concern for seizure, Keppra was started and EEG leads were placed. He was monitored on EEG for 24 hours without any seizures or epileptiform discharges seen. EEG and Keppra were therefore discontinued. He was extubated successfully on ___. He remained stable from a respiratory standpoint. After extubation, he was noted to have a right facial droop as well as significant weakness of his left side. Periodic elevations were noted in his ICPs, corresponding largely to periods of agitation or systemic hypertension. He was started on PO Labetalol as well as Clonidine for blood pressure control, and was able to transition off the Nicardipine drip. Clonidine was chosen as he was also frequently agitated after extubation. He received haloperidol IV intermittently as needed, though developed akathisia with this regimen and was subsequently transitioned to quetiapine without adverse effects. His agitation improved on this regimen, with improvement in his ICPs, with subsequent discontinuation of his EVD on ___. His mental status improved markedly following discontinuation of EVD and NGT. Regarding the etiology of his hemorrhage, it was felt to most likely be due to hypertension, given reports of BPs as high as 230 systolic at the outside hospital. His serum and urine tox screens were negative. CTA of the head showed no aneurysm. Of note, during hospital course, he was noted to have left sided weakness that was unexplained by L basal ganglia hemorrhage. Repeat noncontrast head CT on ___ revealed subacute right thalamocapsular infarct. MRI confirmed this infarct, and also showed a right occipital and left fronto-parietal infarct. Etiology for these infarcts is also likely cardioembolic (given broad distribution). Stroke workup included hemoglobin A1c 4.7 and LDL 179, for which he was started on Atorvastatin 40mg daily. TTE revealed small ASD, mild symmetric LVH with low normal global LV dysfunction (EF 50-55%). Given his ASD, he underwent b/l lower extremity dopplers and CT venogram of the pelvis to evaluate for DVT, which were negative. He also had antiphospholipid antibodies checked to evaluate for arterial hypercoagulability which were negative. A TEE was ordered to definitively rule out a vegetation. However, he was unable to consent for this, and we were not able to contact any family members at the time to consent for him. This was therefore deferred to the outpatient setting. #Alcohol withdrawal: Patient developed clinical signs/symptoms of alcohol withdrawal with diaphoresis, hallucinations, tachycardia, HTN and agitation, in setting of heavy alcohol use prior to admission and prior admissions to ___ for alcohol withdrawal. He was started on phenobarbital protocol on ___. He was placed on Precedex drip for agitation (weaned prior to transfer), as well as clonidine 0.3mg q8h, thiamine, folate and multivitamin. #HTN with poor medication adherence: Blood pressures were maintained SBP<150 for several days, and liberalized to SBP<160 on ___. He was placed on cardene drip, clonidine 0.3mg q8h (uptitrated to this dose) and labetalol. Workup to evaluate for secondary HTN included renal ultrasound which was negative, TTE revealing ASD, mild L ventricular hypertrophy, and 24 hour urine for catacholamines/metanephrines which was overall unremarkable.

ACUTE/ACTIVE PROBLEMS: # Suspected pelvic malignancy with metastases - imaging concerning for endometrial carcinoma vs. leiomyosarcoma with extensive lymphadenopathy (involving the pelvic, inguinal, and retroperitoneal chains) and possible metastases to the lung and liver. No evidence of pelvic malignancy on gynecologic / rectal exam done by gyn team. Oncology recommended targeting the left inguinal lymph node for biopsy due to its accessibility and also for diagnostic yield. - ___ consulted for LN biopsy; discussed with ___ patient underwent LN biopsy by ___ on ___. Oncology (Dr. ___ ___ follow up results outpatient and coordinate appropriate care. - Uric acid level elevated and per Oncology recommendations she was started on allopurinol. # Acute Kidney Injury -Baseline Creatinine unknown, but creatinine at ___ was 1.7 improved to 1.0 with IV fluids. No clear cause of volume depletion. # Iron deficiency microcytic anemia - acute on chronic / subacute iron deficiency anemia for which patient is already taking iron pills at home. Hemolysis workup here reassuring though with mild elevation in uric acid level for which she was started on allopurinol. She was transfused 1U PRBC on ___ given concern for symptomatic anemia as patient c/o ongoing fatigue and mild dyspnea on exertion. Her Hgb improved from 7.8 to 8.9 after 1 unit of packed red blood cells which is also reassuring and no concern for active bleeding at this time. She will resume home dose of daily iron pills after discharge and follow up with her PCP for ongoing management of her chronic iron deficiency anemia. Could consider IV iron infusions down the line depending on iron stores. #SIRS -Fever and tachycardia without localizing signs or symptoms of active infection, with negative culture results from urine and blood testing. Fever likely inflammatory/noninfectious in setting of malignancy and as long as continues without localizing symptoms of shortness of breath / cough, diarrhea or dysuria, can manage supportively with anti-pyretics. # Skin lesions Violaceous cystic lesions in suprapubic region, one of which has been present for ___ years and the other just a few months.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure to participate in your care. WHY WAS I ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL? You came in to the hospital because you were having swelling in your leg. We did an ultrasound which did not show signs of a clot in the leg, but we did see an enlarged lymph node in the groin area which is probably causing swelling because of a blockage in the lymphatic drainage system from the enlarged lymph node. We did also find a tumor in your uterus and this looks concerning for cancer (metastatic gynecologic malignancy, likely leiomyosarcoma v. uterine carcinoma), but we won't know exactly or what the definitive origin is until the results from the biopsy come back. You had a biopsy done of this lymph node on ___. The Oncology Fellow who saw you here (Dr. ___ ___ be following up on the biopsy results and schedule follow up for you with the appropriate doctors. Given your iron deficiency anemia and complaints of fatigue and low energy, we gave you a blood transfusion which you tolerated well with an appropriate rise in your blood counts. You should resume your home dose of iron pills after discharge and follow up with your PCP for ongoing management. They can check your iron levels and assess your response to the oral iron pills. Sometimes iron levels are low enough to warrant iron infusion rather than pills, so this could be considered in the outpatient setting. You did have fevers while you were with us, but no high grade fevers since yesterday. Our tests including blood, urine and scans did not show any signs of an active infection, so we suspect this is likely from inflammation. This can happen in the setting of cancer even in the absence of infection because of high cell turnover and involvement of your lymph nodes. This can be treated with Tylenol or Naprosyn for management of symptoms. If you develop new cough or burning on urination, or diarrhea, you should see your PCP or return to the ED because these could be signs of a new infection. Otherwise, if you continue to have isolated fevers without any new symptoms as mentioned, you can take Tylenol or Naprosyn as needed for fevers. Uric acid which can be tested for in the blood is released by cells that are rapidly multiplying which happens in the setting of cancer. Your level was elevated enough to warrant starting a medication called allopurinol which is frequently used in the chronic management of gout to help reduce gout attacks. It acts the same way in this setting to reduce your uric acid level in the blood to prevent gout-like attacks and reduce risk of kidney failure from this. We have included her contact information below to use in the meantime if you have questions. You should also ask your PCP to help coordinate the referral as well. We wish you the best. Sincerely, Your ___ Team Followup Instructions: ___

In brief during his ICU stay, he went to the OR HD 2 for fixation of his right hand and thigh, then was transferred to the floor HD 3. His hospital course is summarized below by system. Neurologic: He remained alert and oriented. Pain control was achieved with a dilaudid PCA initially, and he was transitioned to an oral regimen with adequate pain control by discharge. Cardiovascular: Imaging at presentation was consistent with a right CFA filling defect, most consistent with an intimal flap. A vascular surgery consult was obtained. Pulse checks were done Q1 hour which consistently showed a bounding ___ pulse (pulse had returned after reducing fracture). An ABI done intra-op ___ was 0.68, improved from 0.45 the day prior. He was started on a heparin drip (goal PTT 50-70) following fixation of his fractures on ___. On ___ he was transitioned to a lovenox bridge to coumadin. By ___ his INR was therapeutic and lovenox was discontinued. At discharge his INR is 2.8. Plan is for ___ to draw ___ on ___ and anticoagulation to be monitored by pt's PCP who has been notified. His vital signs were routinely monitored throughout his hospitalization and he remained hemodynamically stable. His hematocrit was checked serially initially given his liver laceration for the first 48 hours, and remained stable. However, he continued to be orthostatic and dizzy when getting out of bed and ambulating with physical therapy. On ___ he was transfused 2 units of pRBC's and his hematocrit went from 24.6 to 32.1. He was no longer orthostatic or dizzy when ambulating after the transfusion. Pulmonary: On presentation he had a small right pneumothorax with no evidence of rib fracture or pulmonary contusion/hematoma. A small ___ pigtail catheter was placed in the ED with good evacuation of the pleural air. The catheter was kept on -20cm H20 suction for 48 hours then removed. His OSH CT scan showed bilateral pulmonary lesions, initally read as contusions, but did not appear consistent with this diagnosis, instead seeming more likely to be infectious in nature. His supplemental oxygen was weaned and his oxygenation remained excellent on room air. Pulmonary toileting was encouraged. He remained without cough, shortness of breath or any further evidence of pneumothorax or an infectious process. Gastrointestinal / Abdomen: He presented with a Grade 1 liver laceration for which no intervention was indicated. Hematocrits were stable further reassuring that his liver had no clinically significant bleed. His diet was advanced to regular on POD#1 which he tolerated without abdominal pain. He was also started on a bowel regimen given the administration of narcotics. He was passing flatus and having bowel movements at discharge. Renal: He presented with hematuria, presumed to be from a blunt renal injury not visually apparent on CT scan. His urine continued to clear and his foley was removed once the hematuria resolved. At discharge he had no further evidence of hematuria and was voiding without difficulty. Musculoskeletal: His right metacarpal fractures were placed in an external fixator. Follow up was scheduled with hand surgery prior to discharge. His right femur fracture was fixed with an intramedullary nail. He remained weightbearing as tolerated on his RLE and weightbearing through a platform crutch on his RUE. Physical therapy and occupational therapy were consulted and work with the patient to progress his mobility status. On ___ he was cleared for discharge home with home ___ and OT at home. ID: His WBC count normalized within 24 hours from 24.3 on admission to 9.7. At discharge he is afebrile without any signs of infection. He was placed perioperatively on prophylactic IV cefazolin, which was discontinued on POD#4. He had recently started on a course of doxycycline as an outpatient per pt history for treatment of chlamydia. The course was continued when tolerating PO's and he was discharged with a prescription for 2 more days to complete a 7 day course. On ___ he remains afebrile without any evidence of infection and stable vital signs. He is ambulatory with assistance and his pain is well controlled on an oral regimen. He is tolerating a regular diet and voiding without difficulty. His INR is therapeutic on coumadin and he continues to have good peripheral pulses, sensation and color in his RLE. He is being discharged home with scheduled follow up with his PCP, ___, ortho, and vascular. Medications on Admission: none Discharge Medications: 1.

Activity Status: Ambulatory - requires assistance or aid (walker or cane). Discharge Instructions: You were admitted to the hospital after motorcycle accident. You sustained multiple injuries including multiple broken bones in your right hand and wrist, right femur fracture, dissection of your right femoral artery, a collapse in your right lung and a small laceration to your liver. You were taken to the operating room with the hand surgeons and orthopedic surgeons to fix your fractures. You had a chest tube placed to pull your lung back up and you have no evidence on x-ray of remaining collapse. You also have no evidence of bleeding from your liver injury. Because of the dissection in your artery, the vascular surgeons recommend that you be on a blood thinning medication called coumadin (warfarin) for 3 months. You will need to have your blood work checked frequently in the first couple of weeks while taking coumadin. You should take this medication at the same time every day. Your primary care provider ___ has been notified of this. The ___ will draw you lab work tomorrow and send the results to Dr. ___, who will contact you and adjust the dosing of the coumadin as needed. It is important that you keep your follow up appointments as scheduled below and that you see your PCP next week. You are being discharged on narcotic pain medication. Narcotic medications can cause constipation. If needed, you may take a stool softener (such as Colace, one capsule) or gentle laxative (such as milk of magnesia, 1 tbs) twice a day. You can get both of these medicines without a prescription. Narcotic medications also cause sedation so you should not drink alcohol or drive while taking narcotics. Followup Instructions: ___

History of Present Illness: This is a ___ year old male with a history of metastatic renal cell carcinoma with metastasis to multiple ribs and lungs with associated pleural effusions s/p Genentech study drug who presents with right leg weakness, urinary retention, and constipation over the past several days. Ordinarily, Mr ___ is able to ambulate with a walker without difficulty at home - he prepares meals for himself at his home he shares with his wife. Over the past few days, due to increasing weakness in his right leg, he has had difficulty with walking. He has also been constipated over this same time period, his last bowel movement 5 days ago. His PO intake has been diminished over the last several months, although he takes considerable fluids. He has also described urinary retention over the past three months. Otherwise, he denies any other extremity weakness, with no numbness or tingling. Back pain is minimal at rest, although coughing does make it worse. He recently had a pleurex catheter in place for pleural effusion during last admission. An MRI was performed on day of admission which reveals multiple spinal mets with significant collapse of the T5 vertebral body with epidural extension and marked canal narrowing with cord impingement at this level. The other areas of metastases are not associated with cord compression. For the MRI, the patient was intubated for claustrophobia and anxiety treatment - he was immediately extubated thereafter without need for supplemental O2. Neurosurgery saw the patient and plan on taking the patient to the OR assuming that this plan is acceptable per the Oncology team, based on their overall treatment plan. At time of transfer to floor, the patient was comfortable with no pain, but continued symptoms as described above. Past Medical History: PAST ONCOLOGIC HISTORY: -- On ___, MRI revealed a 3.2 cm solid exophytic lesion arising from the lower pole of left kidney suspicious for clear cell renal cell carcinoma and a 1.6 cm solid lesion in the anterior left pole of the left kidney and a 2.4 cm lesion in the mid pole of the right kidney, both of which concerning for tumor cell carcinoma, papillary type. He was referred to Dr. ___ on ___. Given its small size, he was recommended to have followup imaging ___ MRI at ___ compared to CT without contrast from ___. -- On ___, he underwent repeat MRI, which showed no significant change and bilaterally no masses. -- On ___, he underwent repeat MRI, which revealed significant interval increase in the lower pole of the left kidney obstructing mass, now measuring 4.9 x 3 cm from 3.1 x 2.7 cm and development of nodules in the perinephric fat, consistent with extrarenal spread suspicious for clear cell renal cell carcinoma, and there were also two other lesions that were minimally increased in size. On ___, he underwent laparoscopic left radical nephrectomy, which revealed a 4.6 cm clear cell carcinoma and a 2.8 cm papillary renal cell carcinoma, grade 3 tumors with tumor extension into the perinephric tissue (T3a N0), ___. Of note, the clear cell renal cell carcinoma shows no areas of signaling, no definitive sarcomatoid differentiation. Renal cell carcinoma is diffusely positive CA9, negative for CK7 and patchy positivity for P504s. The papillary renal cell carcinoma is again diffusely positive for CK7 and P504s and focally positive for CA9. Packs two shows focal weak staining for both tumors with no after lymphovascular invasion as identified on CT31 staining. -- on ___ Splenectomy showed vascular congestion with subcapsular hematoma. -- On ___, the lesion in the pole of the right kidney most consistent with papillary renal cell carcinoma is unchanged, and fluid collection consistent with pseudocyst of one of the pancreas is noted. -- On ___, he underwent partial right nephrectomy of the 2.6 cm papillary renal cell carcinoma, grade 2 (T1a Nx) with the size of the tumor measured as a solid part 2.6 cm, adjacent cyst continued minimal tumor. Specimen one in the belt of the cyst adjacent to the tumor, right margin with papillary carcinoma cauterized. --On ___, post-nephrectomy period complicated by fever and treated for pneumonia. He was noted to have a low O2 and underwent a chest x-ray, which noted a 5 cm elliptical opacity in the left upper hemi collapse with apparent adjacent local destruction, new since ___. --On ___, CT abdomen and pelvis revealed a 5.1 x 2.2 soft tissue density lesion with destruction of the third posterior lateral rib, fluid collection in the right partial nephrectomy bed with a seroma. Coronary and aortic valve calcifications, enlarged pulmonary artery, right lower lobe consolidation concerning for pneumonia. A 7-mm right lung nodule, nonspecific left upper lobe ground-glass opacity. --On ___ admitted for pleural effusion which was tapped by IP. Interval need of supplemental O2. He was stopped on his experimental therapy. Past Medical History: PMH: HTN, bilateral renal masses, HLD PSH: splenectomy ___, lap left radical nephrectomy ___, R CEA (___) ___, hernia repair x 2 Social History: ___ Family History: non-contributory Physical Exam: PHYSICAL EXAM ON DISCHARGE: Vitals - T: 97.6 BP: 118/52 HR: 65 RR: 18 02 sat: 96% 2L NC GENERAL: NAD, tired appearing HEENT: AT/NC, EOMI, PERRLA, anicteric sclera, pink conjunctiva, patent nares, MMM, nontender supple neck, no LAD, no JVD CARDIAC: RRR, S1/S2, no murmers, gallops, or rubs LUNG: CTAB, no wheezes, rales, rhonchi, breathing comfortably without use of accessory muscles BACK: Dressing c/d/i with drain in place ABDOMEN: nondistended, dec BS, nontender in all quadrants, no rebound/guarding, no hepatosplenomegaly EXTREMITIES: moving all extremities well, no cyanosis, clubbing or edema, no obvious deformities PULSES: 2+ DP pulses bilaterally NEURO: CN II-XII intact, strength ___ biceps and triceps bilaterally, left hip flexors, plantar and dorsiflexion; 4- R dorsiflexion, 4+ R hip flexors Pertinent Results: MR ___ ___: There are multiple vertebral body metastases demonstrated. These are identified at T1, T2, T4, T5, and sacrum. The largest of these lesions is at T5 where there is collapse of the vertebral body, to a considerably greater extent than present on the ___ CT scan. There is extensive soft tissue extending from the posterior vertebral body into the spinal canal producing severe spinal cord compression at T5. Tumor extends into the canal from the T2 body and just touches the left anterior surface of the spinal cord. Tumor also extends into the canal from the T4 body, again touching the anterior surface of the cord. There is no evidence of cord or cauda equina compromise at the other metastatic levels. At the level of most severe spinal compression, there is hyperintensity in the spinal cord on the long TR images, presumably edema related to severe compression. The metastases enhance after contrast administration. No intradural tumor is identified. Again noted are multiple other metastases in the chest wall, incompletely evaluated on this examination. Also again seen are bilateral pleural effusions, greater on the left than right. CONCLUSION: Multiple spinal vertebral metastases with collapse of the T5 vertebral body and a soft tissue extending into the canal at this level producing severe spinal cord compression. Soft tissue extends into the canal at T2 and T4 contacting the spinal cord but not producing cord compression. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ with metastatic renal cell carcinoma with known malignant right sided pleural effusion s/p recent drainage who presented with several days of right sided leg weakness, urinary retention for several weeks/months and constipation, with radiographic evidence of cord compression at the level of T5 as above. 1) Cord compression - Upon admission, Mr. ___ exhibited clinical signs of cord compression, including right leg paralysis and radiographic evidence of T8 cord invasion. He underwent operative intervention on ___ with decompression at the level of the T5 lesion, fusion T2-T8, laminectomies at T4 and T6, instrumentation T2-8, cage placement at T5, and autografting. Please see the operative report for complete details. Following this procedure, his strength improved. He was placed on a post-operative steroid taper, starting at dexamethasone 6mg IV q6hrs to be tapered down by 1mg q6hrs every other day. This regimen was converted to PO on the day of discharge. He was discharged taking 4mg PO q6hrs. His next adjustment was to be a decrease to 3mg PO q6hrs, to be initiated 48 hours after discharge. 2) Pleural Effusion - Patient was recently discharged after drainage of a recurrent malignant right pleural effusion and placement of Pleurx catheter. Admission CXR demonstrated a stable/slightly decreased effusion. He was saturating well on room air at time of discharge. This collection was drained every other day per his regular scheduled. 3) Hyponatremia - Stable sodium at 132 upon admission. Previously attributed to ___. Stable throughout this hospitalization; sodium equal to 133 on day of discharge. 4) Hypercalcemia - Calcium at admission 10.4. Previous admissions with suspicion of etiology secondary to combination of bony metastases and paraneoplastic hypercalcemia, though no definitive work-up for PTHrP performed. Managed well via intravenous fluids. Corrected calcium equal to 9.1 on day of discharge. 4) Leukocytosis - Patient with persistent leukocytosis of several years - attributed on previous admissions to be secondary to his renal cell carcinoma. Relatively stable througout admission, though did exhibit increase in WBC count status-post initiation of dexamethasone therapy. WBC count equal to 21.4 on day of discharge, comparable to previous values. Expected to trend downwards with tapering of steroids as above. 5) Thrombocytosis - Patient's thrombocytosis attributed to previous splenectomy/hyposplenism. 6) Metastatic renal cell carcinoma - Had been receiving Genetech study drug, but discontinued on recent admission secondary to dyspnea and progressive disease. Mr. ___ is to ___ as an outpatient for re-evaluation and initiation of chemotherapy. CHRONIC ISSUES: 7) Hyperlipidemia - continued simvastatin. 8) Hypertension - continued metoprolol. ========================================== TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: - Mr. ___ remained full code throughout his hospitalization. - His HCP is ___ (girlfriend of many years): ___, Cell phone: ___ - He will require outpatient ___ with ___, NP ___ after discharge. - He has an appointment with Dr. ___ on ___ at 9:30 AM Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

Findings may represent sphincter of Oddi dysfunction or ampullary stenosis; ampullary region could be directly evaluated with ERCP if there are laboratory findings to suggest ductal obstruction. IMAGING/OTHER STUDIES: ====================== TEE without vegetation CT CSPINE ___ 1. Study is moderately degraded by motion artifact; in the context of these limitations; 2. No evidence of traumatic malalignment. 3. Evaluation of the lower cervical spine is extremely limited due to motion, however there appears to be a smooth rounded density extruding posteriorly from C5-C6. There are also calcifications extending posteriorly from C6-C7, which could represent a disc osteophyte complex. Extremely limited evaluation for fracture given motion, there does appear to be irregularity along the posterior margin of the C6 vertebral body. If there is continued clinical concern for acute fracture, MRI cervical spine may be obtained. CT HEAD ___ 1. No evidence of acute intracranial process. 2. Soft tissue swelling over the right frontal bone without evidence of underlying fracture. 3. Findings consistent with sinus disease. MRCP ___ Mild dilation of the pancreatic duct and common bile duct which tapers at the ampulla, with no pancreatic head or periampullary mass seen. Findings may represent sphincter of Oddi dysfunction or ampullary stenosis; ampullary region could be directly evaluated with ERCP if there are laboratory findings to suggest ductal obstruction. TTE ___ Poor image quality. Normal overall LV systolic function. There is an echobright mobile mass associated with the mitral valve. Differential includes thickened calcified chord, less likely a vegetation, with trace mitral regurgitation. Rhythmn appears to be sinus. TEE ___: IMPRESSION: No discrete vegetation or abscess seen. No spontaneous echo contrast or thrombus in the left atrium/left atrial appendage/right atrium/right atrial appendage. Normal global left ventricular systolic function. Calcified chord in the posterior mitral valve apparatus. Brief Hospital Course: ___ with a PMH of polysubstance abuse, depression, ___ Tooth syndrome, admitted with SI and for treatment of EtOH withdrawal. Noted to have newly diagnosed AFib on arrival as well with RVR managed with nodal agents, ultimately converted back to sinus prior to discharge. EtOH withdrawal was managed with valium for ~24 hours without complication. He was noted to have He endorsed persistent suicidality, and was maintained on 1:1 supervision and ___. He was seen by psychiatry and social work, and ultimately discharged to an inpatient psychiatric facility per psychiatry recommendation. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== -New atrial fibrillation, CHADSVASC 0 so did not initiate anticoagulation. Spontaneously converted to sinus rhythm -TSH 0.09 with normal T3/T4. Repeat as outpatient -Hepatology referral as able for HCV treatment -PFTs for evaluation for ?COPD -Patient with significant distress from tardive dyskinesia; endorses significant response to klonopin. Did not start during this medical hospitalization and defer to inpatient psychiatry team. -Patient with housing insecurity; given medical comorbidities, may be a candidate for SNF placement after discharge from inpatient psychiatry facility. ACUTE/ACTIVE PROBLEMS: # Paroxysmal AFib: New diagnosis, initially in RVR in ED requiring nodal agents, then spontaneously converted to sinus rhythm. TSH low although T3/free T4 normal. TTE obtained and showed ##. Discontinued metoprolol on discharge, particularly given risks of hypotension (BPs ~100s while inpatient) if ongoing EtOH use. CHADS2VASC: 0, so did not initiate anticoagulation. # Anxiety # Suicidal ideation: Expressed persistent suicidal ideation throughout hospitalization. Maintained on ___. Anxiety managed with seroquel 12.5mg prn, and discharged to inpatient psychiatric facility per psychiatry recommendations. # Alcohol use disorder: Uncomplicated. Required ~24 hours of valium for CIWA >10. # Likely hemangioma # Dilatation of the main pancreatic duct: Both noted incidentally on RUQUS obtained for transaminitis. MRCP showed no mass, did confirm dilation of pancreatic duct (mild) which could be due to sphincter of oddi dysfunction or ampullary stenosis. Given no evidence of cholestasis on LFTs, will not pursue ERCP at this time. # Lack of housing: Pt reports as significant barrier to staying sober. Social work consulted. CHRONIC/STABLE PROBLEMS: #Charcot ___: Significant bilateral hand contractions, impairing function. Continued Neurontin 800mg TID. Discussed possibility of transitioning to SNF. #HCV: Transaminases in 100s on admission, RUQUS with normal liver architecture and no evidence of cirrhosis on labs/exam. HCV viral load ~5. Would benefit from hepatology referral and anti-viral therapy if socially feasible. #Tobacco use d/o #?COPD: Patient with productive cough, intermittent wheeze.

Culture screened for Adenovirus, Influenza A & B, Parainfluenza type 1,2 & 3, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus.. Detection of viruses other than those listed above will only be performed on specific request. Please call Virology at ___ within 1 week if additional testing is needed. Respiratory Viral Antigen Screen (Final ___: Negative for Respiratory Viral Antigen. Specimen screened for: Adeno, Parainfluenza 1, 2, 3, Influenza A, B, and RSV by immunofluorescence. Refer to respiratory viral culture and/or Influenza PCR (results listed under "OTHER" tab) for further information.. Imaging: TTE ___ The left atrial volume index is severely increased. The right atrium is moderately dilated. Left ventricular wall thicknesses and cavity size are normal. There is mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with mild hypokinesis of the inferior/inferolateral walls. The remaining segments contract normally (LVEF = 40%). There is no left ventricular outflow obstruction at rest or with Valsalva. The right ventricular cavity is moderately dilated with mild global free wall hypokinesis. The ascending aorta is mildly dilated. The aortic arch is mildly dilated. There is mild aortic valve stenosis (valve area 1.2-1.9cm2). Mild (1+) aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. Moderate to severe [3+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. [In the setting of at least moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation, the estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure may be underestimated due to a very high right atrial pressure.] There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: Mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction, c/w CAD. Dilated right ventricle with mild RV systolic dysfunction. Calcific aortic valve disease with mild stenosis and mild regurgitation. Mild mitral regurgitation. Moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation. At least mild pulmonary hypertension. CTA Chest ___ There is aneurysmal dilatation of the ascending aorta measuring up to 4.3 cm. Moderate atherosclerotic calcification is noted. There is calcification of the aortic valve leaflets as well as moderate coronary artery calcification. An AICD/ pacemaker is seen with the leads in the right heart. A right internal jugular approach dialysis catheter is seen terminating in the upper right atrium. The heart is enlarged and contrast refluxes into the IVC and hepatic veins in keeping with congestive heart failure. There is no pericardial effusion. The pulmonary arteries are well opacified to the segmental level, with no evidence of filling defect within the main, right, left, lobar or segmental pulmonary arteries. Evaluation of the subsegmental pulmonary arteries is somewhat limited by respiratory motion. The main pulmonary artery is enlarged measuring 3.5 cm with dilatation of the right and left pulmonary arteries. There is no supraclavicular, axillary, mediastinal, or hilar lymphadenopathy. The thyroid gland appears unremarkable. There are trace bilateral pleural effusions greater on the left than the right with associated atelectasis. Along the right major fissure there is a 1.2 x 2.6 cm tubular lesion which is partially fat density on partially soft tissue density that may reflect mucous impaction. There is biapical pleural scarring with calcification and bronchiectasis. In the right lower lobe there is a 0.6 x 0.8 cm nodule (02:55) which also measures fat density. Scattered ground-glass opacities are seen in the bilateral lower lobes likely reflecting aspiration or infection. Calcified granulomas are noted in the lingula (02:36) and right lower lobe (02:43). Limited images of the upper abdomen are notable for a partially imaged heterogeneous mass which appears to arise from the upper pole of the left kidney measuring at least 6.1 x 8.4 cm and displacing the spleen anteriorly. Multiple calcifications or nonobstructing stones are seen in the atrophic right kidney. No lytic or blastic osseous lesion suspicious for malignancy is identified. Severe compression deformity of T8 is unchanged from the chest radiograph of ___ but new from more remote chest radiographs. There is a 2.1 x 3 cm soft tissue density mass in the right breast with a calcification within it. IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism to the segmental level. Evaluation of subsegmental pulmonary arteries is limited by respiratory motion. 2. Large heterogeneous mass partially imaged which appears to be arising from the left kidney suspicious for malignancy. 3. 3 cm mass in the right breast. 4. Cardiomegaly with reflux of contrast into the IVC and hepatic veins consistent with congestive heart failure. 5. Ascending aortic aneurysm measuring 4.3 cm. 6. Dilatation of the pulmonary artery as seen in pulmonary artery hypertension. 7. T8 compression deformity, unchanged from ___ but new from more remote studies of uncertain chronicity. 8. Multiple pulmonary opacities in the right middle lobe and lower lobe which appear somewhat tubular and could reflect mucus plugging or ABPA, less likely metastatic disease. Follow-up would depend on the outcome of the abdominal imaging and breast and renal mass evaluation. RECOMMENDATION(S): 1. Recommend imaging of the abdomen and pelvis with contrast to further evaluate the left renal mass. 2. Correlation with mammography for the right breast mass. CXR ___ FINDINGS: New compared to prior older exam is hazy right midlung opacity seen on the frontal view. Increased opacity projecting over the hilar region on the lateral view is also new and may correspond a finding on the frontal view. Biapical scarring is grossly unchanged. The cardiac silhouette is enlarged but similar compared to prior. Markedly tortuous thoracic aorta is noted. Left chest wall dual lead pacing device is again noted. Right-sided dual lumen central venous catheter seen with tip projecting over the proximal right atrium. There is no pleural effusion. Compression deformity in the mid thoracic spine is new since ___ but is age indeterminate. IMPRESSION: Hazy right midlung opacity which could represent infection in the proper clinical setting. Severe mid thoracic compression deformity new since ___ but age indeterminate, to be correlated clinically. Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is an ___ year old woman with a history of AF (on Coumadin and s/p dual chamber pacemaker), history of endocarditis (?MRSA) and pacemaker infection in ___ requiring mitral valve annuloplasty, ESRD (on HD MF), CAD, sCHF, who presented ___ with dyspnea and possible diarrhea for past several days. #HCAP: Patient presented with dyspnea on admission and was found to have leukocytosis, hypoxemia, and possible opacity on CXR initially concerning for HCAP. She was started on cefepime and levofloxacin as empiric coverage. There was also a concern for volume overload and pulmonary edema causing SOB, as she had elevated NT-pro-BNP (>40000) on admission. She had a TTE that showed pulmonary hypertension, dilated right ventricle, and 3+ TR, which were also felt to be contributing to her SOB. She had a CTA chest, which showed pulmonary opacities in the right middle lobe and lower lobe which were consistent with mucus plugging or ABPA. As there was no evidence of pneumonia, her antibiotics were discontinued. There was no evidence of PE on CTA. Ultimately, it was felt that her SOB for which she presented was multifactorial, related to her 3+ TR, pulmonary hypertension, and mucous plugging. She remained tachypneic to the ___ throughout hospital course but maintained O2 sats >92% without supplemental O2. #?Renal, breast malignancy: CTA chest was highly concerning for malignancy, specifically a 6.1 x 8.4 cm mass in the left kidney and a 3 cm mass in the right breast. An extensive discussion was had with the patient regarding further work up. Patient declined biopsy and treatment, whether that be palliative or curative in the future. Per goals of care discussion, patient wanted to transition to hospice rather than seek diagnosis or treatment for these masses. #ESRD on HD: Patient has a long history of HTN, which is the presumed etiology of her ESRD, not her malignancy. She was continued on HD during admission. Her dry weight was reportedly 44kg prior to admission, but was suspected to be lower and so 1L was taken off with each HD session. Goals of care discussion was had at length with patient, who wanted to transition to hospice. With specific regard to her dialysis, she does prefer to continue HD after discharge for a limited time. She understood that discontinuation of HD would be life-limiting on the order of days to weeks rather than the months she may have otherwise. Given this, she preferred to continue with HD for the time being. #Leukocytosis: Patient noted to have leukocytosis throughout admission, which was most likely secondary to malignancy rather than infection. CT chest negative for PNA, unable to give urine for UCx since anuric, blood cultures negative. Patient remained afebrile and did not meet SIRS criteria to require antibiotics over course of admission. #systolic CHF: per records, last EF seen was 50% (___). EF of 40% this admission concerning for worsening HF. BNP was elevated, although no baseline was provided in records. She did have fluid removed in HD, with a discharge weight of 40.7 kg. #H/o MRSA endocarditis and pacemaker lead infection in ___ s/p mitral valve annuloplasty (on suppressive doxycycline). Given MRSA swab negative and transition to hospice care, her doxycycline prophylaxis was discontinued. Her pacemaker was interrogated prior to discharge, and was found to be pacemaker dependent. Her ERI is 2 months. #H/o Afib: CHADS 3. Her home amiodarone was discontinued prior to discharge as with other home meds, scaling back per GOC. Coumadin was restarted after initially supratherapeutic INR since admission, and will continue on discharge for a goal INR of ___. #CAD s/p CABG: discontinued home aspirin 81, simvastatin 20 mg qHS per GOC by the time of discharge. #Hypothyroidism: continued home levothyroxine. TSH this admission was 0.082 and so decreased levothyroxine approx. 15% to 50 mcg daily from 50 mcg 5x/week, 75 mcg 2x/week #Anemia: Fe studies consistent with ACD. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: - Patient completed MOLST form to indicate DNR/DNI status, does want BiPAP, does want HD, does want fluids if necessary but not supplemental nutrition. She would be amenable to antibiotics if po only. She would be amenable to transport to hospital for comfort only. Please see MOLST form for details. - Patient's levothyroxine was decreased given low TSH; she will continue on levothyroxine at home. - Patient's medications were scaled back, including aspirin, statin, amiodarone, given hospice goals. She was continued on warfarin at discharge. - Patient's biotronic pacemaker was interrogated during hospital course; she is ___ pacemaker dependent. Her ERI is 2 months. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1. Amiodarone 200 mg PO DAILY 2. Aspirin 81 mg PO DAILY 3. Levothyroxine Sodium 50 mcg PO 4X/WEEK (___) 4.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Out of Bed with assistance to chair or wheelchair. Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. ___, You were seen at ___ due to shortness of breath, cough, and decreased eating and drinking. You had a CT scan of your lungs which showed extensive lung scarring and some areas where there may have been plugs of mucous. Your shortness of breath is most likely due to these as well as your heart disease. Some of the valves in your heart are leaky, and this may affect your shortness of breath. In addition, on your CT scan, there were concerning findings for cancer. Specifically, there is a large mass in your left kidney as well as a mass in your right breast. This mass in your kidney is especially concerning for cancer. We discussed your options for diagnosis and treatment at length, and you felt it would be best for you to not pursue biopsy for diagnosis or treatment at this time. Given this, we arranged hospice services for you. This is a treatment team that specializes in care at the end of life. Per our discussion, you opted to continue with dialysis for now after you go home. If you choose to stop dialysis in the future, you can communicate this to your providers, including those who take care of you through hospice. For now, please take all medications as prescribed and please follow up with the appointments we arrange. It was a pleasure taking care of you at ___. Sincerely, your ___ care team.

The history is obtained from chart review and from the patient's daughter, as the patient is intubated and sedated on arrival. Mr. ___ was recently discharged from ___ on ___ after admission for CHF exacerbation in the setting of atrial fibrillation with RVR. The etiology of his Afib was thought to be secondary to TAVR complication. He underwent cardioversion on the day of admission, though a week later went back into atrial flutter. He then underwent successful ablation and was in sinus (paced) for the remainder of his admission. For his CHF exacerbation he was diuresed with lasix drip with the aid of dopamine. He was diuresed from admission weight of 91 kg to a discharge weight of 87.5.kg. He was discharged on 10 mg PO lasix daily. He was discharged to rehab on ___. On ___ he reported worsening shortness of breath, nausea, and was becoming increasingly lethargic. He worked with ___ at rehab and per daughter report was noted to be hypoxemic with ambulation. CXR at rehab reportedly notable for LLL pneumonia and he was started on Cefipime, Vancomycin, and Azithromycin. On admission to the ED he denied chest pain, cough, fevers, or chills. Patient noted to have 02 saturation in the low ___ on room air on initial presentation to the ED, though triage vitals note 02 sat of 100% 2L NC. He was noted to be obtunded and given concern for airway patency he was intubated and sedated.

Cardiac size is top normal. Engorgement of the mediastinal vessels has improved. Moderate pulmonary edema has improved. Large right effusion and probably moderate left effusion have minimally improved. There are associated bibasilar atelectasis, right greater than left. There is no pneumothorax. ET tube is in standard position. Right IJ catheter is in the mid SVC. Pacemaker leads are in standard position. Aortic stent is in place. Patient is status post CABG. Sternal wires are aligned. ___ CHEST X-RAY Mild pulmonary vascular congestion and small to moderate size bilateral pleural effusions. Bibasilar airspace opacities likely reflecting atelectasis, though infection cannot be excluded. ___ CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST There is no evidence of hemorrhage, edema, mass effect, or acute vascular territorial infarction. Prominent ventricles and sulci suggest age related global atrophy. Periventricular white matter hypodensities are non-specific, but likely sequelae from chronic small vessel ischemic disease. The basal cisterns appear patent and there is preservation of gray-white matter differentiation. No fracture is identified. The visualized paranasal sinuses, mastoid air cells, and middle ear cavities are clear. The globes are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: No evidence of acute intracranial process. Brief Hospital Course: ___ year-old man with a history of aortic stenosis s/p Core valve ___, dilated cardiomyopathy (EF 30%), CAD s/p CABG ___, Type 2 Diabetes, HTN, non-hodgkins lymphoma, s/p permanent pacer placement ___ who presents with dyspnea, found to be obtunded in the ED, intubated, and admitted to the CCU for further management, clinically improved and transferred to the floor on ___. # Respiratory failure: The patient presented to ___ ED lethargic and was intubated for airway protection. Etiology of his presentation was likely due to underlying CHF with superimposed altered mental status causing a decreased respiratory drive. Lethargy and CHF managed as below. Patient had an infectious work-up that was negative. At the time discharge, the patient is breathing comfortably on room air. # Acute on chronic congestive heart failure: Prior to admission, patient's most recent ECHO in ___ showed EF 25%. On admission, patient had evidence of volume overload on exam, laboratory findings notable for BNP doubled from prior, and chest X-ray with pulmonary edema. The etiology of his CHF exacerbation was thought likely secondary to underdiuresis. He was diuresed successfully with IV furosemide, after which he was switched to oral lasix. He is being discarged on furosemide 20mg PO daily. His home metoprolol was increased from 50mg to 75mg daily. # Hypoglycemia: Patient presented with fasting hypoglycemia to glucose 40-50s requiring dextrose boluses. The Endocrinology team was consulted and confirmed that hypoglycemia was secondary due to decreased excretion of home glimeperide in the setting of worsening renal function. As the patient was extubated and started eaint, patient's hypoglycemia resolved. At the time of discharge, blood glucose ranged from 100-150s off insulin/home diabetes medications. He is being discharged home off glimeperide and other antihyperglycemic agents. Per ___ consultant recommendations, the patient can consider sitagliptin or Trajenta as an outpatient as needed. # Altered mental status: The patient presented with Likely secondary to hypoglycemia and now resolved with resolution of hypoglycemia. Infectious workup negative. # Acute kidney injury: Patient was found to have an elevated creatinine to 2.3 on admission from a baseline of 1.3. This was likely secondary to cardio-renal syndrome/poor forward flow. After diuresis, patient's creatinine improved and was 1.2 on the day of discharge. # Hypotension: On admission, the patient was hypotensive in the setting of hypoglycemia and sedation briefly required vasopressor support. This resolved after cessation of sedating medications and normalization of blood sugars. # Atrial fibrillation s/p ablation: The patient remained predominantly A-paced throughout this admission. He had an episode of atrial fibrillation ___ overnight with overlying pacemaker firing that resolved spontaneously. The patient was continued on home amiodarone, metoprolol was increased to 75mg daily. Warfarin was held in the setting of supratherapeutic INR and restarted at the time of discharge. # Critical Aortic Stenosis s/p Transaortic valve replacement: Stable. Patient was continued on his home aspirin and clopidogrel. # Coronary Artery Disease status post PCI & CABG: Stable. The patient was continued on his home ontinue aspirin and clopidogrel. # Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: In the setting of fasting hypoglycemia (see above), patient's home antihyperglycemics were held. Per above, the patient was not discharged on any agents. # Hypothyroidism: Stable. Patient was continued on his home levothyroxine. ===================== TRANSITIONAL ISSUES ===================== - Glimepiride discontinued on discharge - Can consider starting sitagliptin - Lasix increased to 20mg daily on discharge - Metoprolol increased to 75 daily - Will need INR check and chemistries on ___ - Also needs EP eval for pacer management as outpatient given intermittent tachyarrhythmias while in house Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

The history was obtained in part from the patient and in part from the medical record. The patient is a somewhat poor historian. He has been experiencing abdominal pain for several months now, which has prompted evaluation in several EDs, GI clinic at ___, and in his primary care clinic. His work-up has been mostly unrevealing to date. When seen in GI clinic several weeks ago it was felt the pain might be related to constipation. The patient reports no recent bowel movements or flatus, despite being on multiple bowel meds. He reports he had a recent enema without improvement. He states that his abdominal pain is primarily R sided, from the mid-to-upper R abdomen. He is unable to identify alleviating or aggravating factors although notes that it does fluctuate somewhat. The character has remained the same over recent months, although the severity has gradually worsened. He states that he has had minimal PO intake recently and has lost ___ lbs in recent months. He states that he has been having nausea and vomiting of clear liquid. It sounds as though he went to an outpatient appointment today and was noted to have multiple episodes of vomiting while there, as well as tachycardia and worsened pain, and so was referred to the ED.

Moderate intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary duct dilation with abrupt tapering at the proximal common bile duct likely due to obstructing stone or sludge although small intraductal mass cannot be excluded. 2. Likely acute hepatitis given heterogeneous hepatic parenchymal enhancement and periportal edema. No focal mass. 3. Mild esophagitis with adjacent reactive lymph nodes. 4. Trace ascites. EGD/ERCP (___): Impression: •The Z line was seen at 38 cm from the incisors. 4 non confluent long mucosal breaks were seen extending from the Z line up to 34 cm, consistent with ___ grade B esophagitis. A 5 cm hiatal hernia was seen as well. •Normal mucosa in the stomach •Given difficulties in passing the duodenoscope through D1, an upper endoscope was used. A large non bleeding ulcer was found in the duodenal bulb ___ III). Two cold forceps biopsies were taken for histology (differentials include peptic vs neoplasia). •The scope was not advanced into D2.

Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ year old man with schizophrenia, history of polysubstance abuse on suboxone, hep C s/p successful eradication, seizure disorder, history of duodenal ulcer, and numerous ED and clinic visits in recent months for abdominal pain of uncertain etiology, who presented to the ED with worsening abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, imaging concerning for possible choledocholithiasis +/- acute hepatitis on imaging. # Large duodenal ulcer causing biliary obstruction # Melena The patient has had a ___ month h/o unexplained abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. In the ED, he had imaging (RUQ US and MRCP) that were concerning for possible choledocholithiasis +/- acute hepatitis. On ERCP (___), he was found to have esophagitis, a hiatal hernia, and a large duodenal ulcer s/p biopsies (ddx includes peptic vs. neoplasm). Because this large ulcer could cause the MRCP findings (external compression of the CBD by distorted D1-2), the endoscope was not advanced further to complete ERCP. After ERCP, he was treated with high dose PPI (initially IV, later transitioned to omeprazole 40 mg PO BID. His diet was slowly advanced until he was tolerating a regular diet. He developed melena so GI was consulted. However his Hgb was stable and he started having brown stools again, so he did not have a repeat EGD. The biopsies of the duodenal ulcer show "chronic active duodenitis with ulceration." # Obstructive pattern LFTs # Concern for hepatitis The initial imaging was concerning for hepatitis, so hepatitis labs were sent including viral hepatitis, EBV, and CMV serologies. Hepatitis A IgM was negative,Hep B serologies were consistent with prior vaccination, HCV VL not detected, EBV serologies consistent with prior exposure, and CMV serologies consistent with prior exposure. After the ERCP, his LFTs improved until they normalized. Most likely these were due to biliary obstruction from the distortion of the duodenum by the large ulcer, as above. # Severe malnutrition He had poor PO intake in the setting of chronic abdominal pain. Nutrition was consulted and recommended meal supplementation with Prosource Gelatein QID. # Hypovolemic hyponatremia - resolved with IV hydration # History of polysubstance abuse (in remission) - continued suboxone ___ TID # Schizophrenia # Seizure disorder - continued Haldol 5 qam/10 qpm, Cogentin 0.5 BID - continued lamictal 100 qam / 200 qpm - continued keppra 500 BID - continued Seroquel 600 HS Mr. ___ is clinically stable for discharge today.

You were admitted to the hospital after placement of a stent in your carotid artery. The stent will help keep the artery open so that blood can flow to the brain. To perform the procedure, a small puncture was made in an artery in your groin, the puncture site heals on its own. There are no stiches to remove. Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery Carotid Artery Stent Discharge Information Preventing a Blood Clot in the Stent •After getting a stent, you need to take aspirin and clopidogrel (Plavix) –medicines that work to prevent blood clots from forming on the carotid stent. •Important: Do not stop taking aspirin and clopidogrel (Plavix) without discussing it with the doctor who did your carotid stent procedure. Puncture Site Care For one week: •Do not take a tub bath, go swimming or use a Jacuzzi or hot tub. •Use only mild soap and water to gently clean the area around the puncture site. •Gently pat the puncture site dry after showering. •Do not use powders, lotions, or ointments in the area of the puncture site. You may remove the bandage and shower the day after the procedure. You may leave the bandage off. You may have a small bruise around the puncture site. This is normal and will go away one-two weeks. Activity For the first 48 hours: •Do not drive for 48 hours after the procedure For the first week: •Do not lift, push , pull or carry anything heavier than 10 pounds •Do not do any exercises or activity that causes you to hold your breath or bear down with abdominal muscles. Take care not to put strain on your abdominal muscles when coughing, sneezing, or moving your bowels. After one week: •You may go back to all your regular activities, including sexual activity. We suggest you begin your exercise program at half of your usual routine for the first few days. You may then gradually work back to your full routine. Followup Instructions: ___

Stent in the left common carotid artery extending into the left internal carotid artery as well as a stent in the petrous segment of the left internal carotid artery with contrast opacification of the lumen suggesting luminal patency. 2. Otherwise, unremarkable CTA of the head and neck noting mild atherosclerosis. 3. No acute intracranial abnormality. MRI Brain ___: New foci of restricted diffusion involving the splenium of the corpus callosum, and left parietal lobe, which are new compared to the prior examination, and represent acute/subacute infarcts. CTA Head/neck ___: IMPRESSION: 1. Short segment severe stenosis at the left P4 segment posterior cerebral artery with filling of the distal parieto-occipital artery either across a stenosis or via collaterals. There is associated geographic area of increased mean transit time within the parieto-occipital cortex consistent with slow flow to the cortex supplied by the parieto-occipital artery. No definitive underlying core infarct on cerebral blood flow or blood volume. No associated hemorrhage. 2. Unchanged focal hypodensity at the left splenium corpus callosum consistent with site of subacute infarction. 3. Patent left P2 segment internal carotid artery stent. 4.

No asymmetries of background were seen and no epileptiform activity was captured. Note is made of an irregular cardiac rhythm. ___: IMPRESSION: This is a normal EEG telemetry recording. No asymmetries of background were seen and no epileptiform activity was captured. Note is made of an irregular cardiac rhythm. Brief Hospital Course: Mr. ___ is a ___ yo male who was recently admitted to ___ from ___ for transient aphasia, dysarthria, confusion and left-sided facial droop, thought due to symptomatic L carotid stenosis. At that time he was treated with heparin gtt and had tandem L ICA stents placed on ___, prior to discharge. He was discharged home on Plavix and ASA. He was admitted to the ___ Stroke Service on ___ after being evaluation at an OSH for an episode of transient aphasia. Upon transfer to ___, neuro exam was only remarkable for mild inattention and some difficulty with complex tasks. CTA Head/Neck demonstrated stent in the left common carotid artery extending into the left internal carotid artery as well as a stent in the petrous segment of the left internal carotid artery with contrast opacification of the lumen suggesting luminal patency. MRI showed new foci of restricted diffusion involving the splenium of the corpus callosum and left parietal lobe, likely acute/subacute infarcts which were not felt to explain his symptoms. Transcranial Doppler US was negative. Extended routine EEG was also performed and was negative for epileptiform activity. CTA showed patent carotid stent but possible luminal irregularity which could be microthrombus vs artifact. On ___ he had another event which lasted for 5 minutes, and he was taken to CT for a perfusion scan which showed focally decreased perfusion in the left parieto-occipital area. He had another event on ___ which also resolved and was in the setting of positive orthostatic vital sign changes. The etiology of his events was not entirely clear but suspected to be a combination of microemboli from plaques near the carotid stent as well as hypoperfusion possibly in setting of atherosclerosis or stenosis not well visualized on imaging. He was started on Coumadin with heparin gtt bridge. He was continued on aspirin and Plavix for the stent per Vascular/Neurosurgery protocol. Once his INR increased to 1.8 the heparin was discontinued and he was discharged home. ------ Transitional issues: [ ] Please continue Coumadin indefinitely for stroke prevention. [ ] Please continue aspirin and Plavix as per protocol for carotid stent. [ ] Patient's INR on day of discharge was 1.8. He was instructed to decrease dose of coumadin to 5mg daily.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted for recurrent episodes of difficulty with speech and slurring. We found that your carotid stent was open and functioning well, but you may have small clot around the stent that could be causing mini-strokes to a particular area of your brain, which is particularly sensitive to changes in blood flow. We started you on anticoagulation with Coumadin, which you should continue to take as directed by your physician. Please be sure to have your blood checked tomorrow ___ and follow his/her instructions for changing dosage. For your blood pressure, we initially held your blood pressure medications and gradually restarted them. You should continue your home medications with the exception of your metoprolol, which you should take at a reduced dose of 6.25mg twice daily. Your PCP can resume this back to normal dosing when you see him/her. You should monitor your blood pressure and be careful when switching positions, and maintain good hydration all the time. Please take all your other medications as prescribed and go to your appointments as scheduled. If you have any of the symptoms listed below, please seek medical attention immediately. It was a pleasure taking care of you. We wish you the best. Sincerely, Your ___ Care Team Followup Instructions: ___

Per chart review: He was admitted from ___ for transient aphasia, dysarthria, confusion and leftsided facial droop, that was thought to be ___ symptomatic L carotid stenosis. He got a tandem L ICA stent on ___ and discharged home on ASA/Plavix. He was admitted again to ___ on ___ after presentation to OSH for transient aphasia (NIHSS1), but on presentation, exam was only notable for inattention. His CTA was notable for patent stent, but with possible irregularity, which could be microthrombus vs. artifact. His MRI was notable for new subacute infarcts in splenium of corpus callosum and left parietal lobe, which were not the cause of his symptoms. TCD and EEG were negative. He had two events (unclear what the events were), that were felt to be due to combination of microemboli near stents, atherosclerosis, and hypoperfusion. He was started on a heparin bridge and transitioned to Coumadin. He was discharged on ___ with goal of normotension and continuation of asa/Plavix/Coumadin. His neuro exam on discharge was overall normal, and only notable for: intact language, naming, comprehension as well as mild L>R intention tremor. For this admission, he presented to ___ after an episode of difficultly speaking. At 4:30 pm, he was sitting on the couch, watching tv, when his speech changed. He had trouble making words, but he is not sure if it was slurred or if the words were nonsensical. He knows his wife (who is not present in ED) had trouble understanding him. He also feels that he had difficultly understanding. This was also associated with room spinning dizziness. They called the Fire department who brought them to ___. He felt his symptoms resolved within an 1.5 hrs, but he does not feel that his speech has returned ot baseline. He mentions he had a similar event on either ___ or ___, but he does not remember the circumstances of the event or the duration. At ___, his NIHSS was 2 for expressive aphasia.

Stable ulceration of the proximal left external carotid artery. 4. Normal CT perfusion. 5. Post radiation changes to the neck, as described above. 6. Dental disease. Dental consultation is recommended. MRI head ___: IMPRESSION: 1. Evolving subacute infarcts in the splenium of the corpus callosum and parietal lobe. 2. Punctate focus of questionable restricted diffusion in the superior medial left thalamus, which may represent an acute infarction versus artifact. Otherwise, no new large acute infarct or mass effect. Carotid ultrasounds ___: IMPRESSION: 1. Patent left ICA stent. Mild homogeneous plaque in the left ICA results in less than 40% stenosis. 2. No right-sided carotid vasculature atherosclerotic disease. Brief Hospital Course: Please see previous discharge summary for details. In summary, Mr. ___ returned for another recurrent episode of aphasia/dysarthria. An MRI showed a left thalamic infarct which was new in the interim since prior admission, in addition to the known left splenium infarct. This was also not felt to be explaining his symptoms and felt to be an indication of ongoing thrombogenic physiology. Etiology of these recurrent TIAs/strokes remained unknown. Coumadin was stopped as it was felt to not be of additional utility. Platelet function and clopidogrel test was sent and suggested some degree of clopidogrel resistance. Per agreement with Vascular surgery and Vascular medicine, decision was made to stop the clopidogrel and start a trial of ticagrelor instead. A repeat swallow evaluation was also performed to exclude risk of aspiration in setting of pharyngeal/laryngeal fibrosis from previous radiation therapy. TEE was attempted at the recommendation of Vascular medicine, however it was unsuccessful due to inability to pass probe through his oropharynx due to fibrosis- no further attempts were made. He was fitted with a Zio patch cardiac monitor in attempt to capture any occult arrhythmia as a source of cardioemboli. Aside from stopping Coumadin and clopidogrel, and starting ticagrelor, no other medication changes were made. His neurologic examination at discharge was at baseline. Transitional issues: [ ] Please continue aspirin and ticagrelor indefinitely for carotid artery stent and secondary stroke prevention. [ ] Please follow up results of Zio patch cardiac monitoring; if any cardiac arrhythmia found we strongly suggest starting systemic anticoagulation (please consult with Stroke provider if this is found). [ ] Stroke, Neurosurgery and Vascular Surgery followup arranged. [ ] Patient's home antihypertensives were all resumed with exception of metoprolol which was halved to 6.25mg BID. Please continue to monitor and titrate for a long term goal of normotension. [ ] Continue atorvastatin for lipid-lowering therapy and obtain repeat LDL in ___ months. Monitor LFTs.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, You were readmitted for another repeat episode of difficulty with speech and slurring. Since your blood pressure was found to be high in the setting of one of these episodes, we do not feel strongly that hypotension is the main precipitant of your symptoms. Instead, we performed a blood test that suggested that Plavix was not as effective as a medication for you as it should be. Therefore, we stopped that and started another similar medication called ticagrelor (brand name ___ which you should take twice a day (morning and evening), in addition to the aspirin 81mg daily. You should STOP taking the Coumadin. Please follow up with Stroke, Neurosurgery, and your PCP. If you experience additional episodes, please call the Stroke clinic (number provided below) or your PCP for further instructions. If your episode is prolonged or different from your usual episodes, or if you do not return to normal after the episode, please come to the Emergency Room for further evaluation. It was a pleasure taking care of you. We wish you the best. Sincerely, Your ___ Care Team Followup Instructions: ___

PROCEDURE: Bilateral percutaneous nephrostomy tube placement. FINDINGS: After the risks and benefits of the procedure were explained to the patient, written informed consent was obtained. The patient was placed prone on the table and her bilateral flanks were prepped and draped in standard sterile fashion. A pre-procedure timeout was performed. LEFT: Under ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance, a left lower pole posterior calix was cannulated with a 21-gauge Cook needle through which a 0.018 wire was advanced into the renal pelvis. The needle was exchanged for AccuStick sheath. The wire was removed. Clear urine drained from the catheter. The wire, inner dilator and metallic shaft of the AccuStick sheath were removed, and a Amplatz wire was advanced into the renal pelvis. An 8 ___ dilator was used to open the tract over the Amplatz wire. This was followed by successful placement of the 8 ___ nephrostomy tube with pigtail locked within the renal pelvis of the left kidney. Contrast was injected confirming this location. The catheter was secured to the skin with 0 silk suture and StatLock. The catheter was placed to external bag drainage. RIGHT: Under ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance, a right lower pole posterior calix was cannulated with a 21-gauge Cook needle through which a 0.018 wire was advanced into the renal pelvis. The needle was exchanged for AccuStick sheath. The wire was removed. Clear urine drained from the catheter. The wire, inner dilator and metallic shaft of the AccuStick sheath were removed, and a Amplatz wire was advanced into the renal pelvis. An 8 ___ dilator was used to open the tract over the Amplatz wire. This was followed by successful placement of the 8 ___ nephrostomy tube with pigtail locked within the renal pelvis of the right kidney. Contrast was injected confirming this location. The catheter was secured to the skin with 0 silk suture and StatLock. The catheter was placed to external bag drainage. FINDINGS: Moderate bilateral hydronephrosis/hydroureter. Obstruction of the bilateral distal third of the ureters (complete obstruction on the right, minimal contrast passage into bladder on the left). There were no immediate complications. IMPRESSION: Successful bilateral percutaneous nephrostomies with 8 ___ nephrostomy tubes. ___ Pelvic MRI without contrast: COMPARISON: Outside hospital CT abdomen ___. FINDINGS: The uterus and cervix are both enlarged and both are markedly abnormal in appearance. The cervix has been replaced by heterogeneously T2 hyperintense tissue which invades into the posterior vaginal fornix (4:24). This measures approximately 9.3 x 8.6 cm in the axial plane and up to 18 cm in craniocaudal dimension. In addition, there is extension into the parametrial tissues diffusely (3:21). Several discrete nodules appear relatively more T2 hyperintense including several nodules which have passed through the mesorectal fascia and are within the mesorectal fat (3:21). In addition, there is a small amount of tumor which appears to have invaded through the sigmoid wall (3:15). An additional nodule displaces the bladder anteriorly, although no frank invasion to the bladder wall can be appreciated (4:20). The uterus itself is also markedly abnormal and based on the T2 and diffusion signal characteristics, there is likely frank invasion of the tumor throughout the uterus. There is also a 5.9 x 4.7 cm fundal fibroid (3:6). The tumor within the uterine body appears to be confined to the uterus. There is 3.1 x 2.6 cm mass along the left pelvic side wall (3:14), identical in signal intensity to the cervical tumor, consistent with a lymph node deposit as the small left ovary appears adjacent. The left ovary could not well defined on this study though is likely between a dilated right tube and fibroid. There is a tubular T2 hyperintense structure in the right adnexal region measuring approximately 7.1 x 3.5 cm. This contains T2 hypointense debris in a dependent distribution. Given this appearance, it is most likely reflecting a dilated fallopian tube. The urinary bladder and rectum are unremarkable in appearance, although as stated before, there are tumor deposits extending into the mesorectal fat. Additional limited in- and out-of-phase T1-weighted images were obtained of the upper abdomen to assess the left adrenal mass. This mass measures approximately 3.5 x 3 cm and demonstrates diffuse loss of signal on out-of-phase compared to in-phase T1-weighted images, consistent with an adenoma. The visualized osseous structures are unremarkable. IMPRESSION: 1. Large cervical mass, replacing both the cervix and uterus extending into the parametrium, mesorectal fat and likely the sigmoid colon focally. Overall, this mass measures greater than 18 cm in craniocaudal extent. MRI stage T4 given invasion of the sigmoid colon. 2. Enlarged abnormal lymph node in the left hemipelvis. 3. Dilated cystic structure in the right adnexa likely hydrosalpinx with debris. 4. Left adrenal adenoma. ___ PET-CT HEAD/NECK: There is a 7 mm hypoattenuating non FDG avid left thyroid lobe nodule. There are no suspicious FDG avid lesions. CHEST: There is a non FDG avid 1 cm nodule in the right major fissure of the lungs. There are no suspicious FDG avid lesions. There is a small pericardial effusion. ABDOMEN/PELVIS: Stable left adrenal gland adenoma (non FDG avid - SUV 2.2). Redemonstrated is the large about 9.5 x 8.5 cm cervical mass with a SUVmax of about 15, with invasion of the sigmoid colon and mesorectum (as seen on the previous MRI), with a large left 3.1 x 2.5 cm FDG avid external iliac lymph node with a SUV max of 14.7 (imag 147). There is a non FDG avid right hydrosalpinx. MUSCULOSKELETAL: There are no suspicious FDG avid lesions. Physiologic uptake is seen in the brain, myocardium, salivary glands, GI and GU tracts, liver and spleen. IMPRESSION: 1. Large FDG avid cervical mass and pelvic lymphadenopathy. 2. 1 cm pulmonary nodule in the right major fissure, likely represents benign lymph node. However, attention on follow-up studies is recommended. 3. No suspicious FDG avid lesions to suggest distant metastatic disease. ___ Cervical mass biopsy and left vulvar biopsy pathology report I. Cervix, biopsy (A): - Squamous cell carcinoma, invasive, moderately differentiated. - Depth of invasion cannot be assessed. II. Vulva, biopsy (B): High grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (Vulvar Intraepithelial Neoplasia 3). Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is a ___ G7P2 woman with poor medical compliance who presented to ___ with two weeks of nausea, vomiting, malaise and abdominal pain and was found to have a large pelvic mass on CT and ___. She was transferred to ___ where she was admitted to the ICU after bilateral nephrostomy tube placement by interventional radiology and then transferred to the gynecologic oncology service for work-up of her pelvic mass when she was medically stabilized. Her hospital course, by problem, was as follows: . #Acute Kidney Injury: Based on imaging showing bilateral hydronephrosis and hydroureters, the etiology of her ___ was largely post-renal from obstruction. The most important intervention was placement of bilateral nephrostomy tubes. She quickly had nearly 2 liters of clear urine output after placement of nephrostomy tubes. She did not have any urgent indication for dialysis and therefore her electrolytes were monitored closely q6h for 48 hours with appropriate decrease in her potassium and phos. Her creatinine decreased from 18.5 on admission to 2.1 on discharge. She received teaching for care of her percutaneous nephrostomy tubes prior to discharge, and will follow-up with nephrology and urology at ___. . #Hyponatremia: Likely hypovolemic in etiology from decreased oral intake and emesis prior to admission. She was given 1L NS boluses x 2 and sodium was monitored q6h for development of post-diuresis hypernatremia. She was maintained on D5W with bicarb to prevent a rapid increase in serum sodium greater than 10 in 24 hours, according to nephrology recommendations. Her Na on admission was 127, and normalized on the afternoon of hospital day 2 at which point she was maintained of D5W until she was taking PO, at which point she was saline locked. . # Cervical mass: CT scan at ___ showed a large mass arising from cervix, bilateral moderate hydronephrosis, and a possible 1cm R lung density. After she was medically stabilized in the ICU, she was transferred to the gynecologic oncology service on hospital day 1. On hospital day 2, she was taken to the OR for an exam under anesthesia, cervical mass biopsy, left posterior vulvar biopsy, cystoscopy, and proctoscopy. Intraoperative findings were notable for a large cervical mass extending down the vagina with parametrial involvement from the sidewall. There was no evidence of invasion of the bladder or rectal mucosa. Please refer to Dr. ___ report for details of the operation. Final pathology is pending at the time of this discharge summary. A pelvic MRI confirmed the 18cm cervical mass extending in to the parametrium, mesorectal fat, and likely the sigmoid colon with enlarged lymph nodes in the left pelvis. A PET-CT was performed to evaluate for distant metastasis showed "no suspicious FDG avid lesions to suggest distant metastatic disease". Her post-operative course was uncomplicated. Her diet was advanced on post-operative day 1 with no nausea, pain was controlled with percocet, she had good urine output from both nephrostomy tubes, and she was ambulating independently without difficulty. . #Anemia: Unclear baseline Hct for pt, Hct of 25.8 in ED. She was hemodynamically stable, without evidence of active hemorrhage. Prior to going to the OR on hospital day 2, her HCT decreased to 23, so she was transfused 2 units pRBCs for stabilization prior to cervical biopsy. Her post-transfusion HCT was appropriate at 32.5. Post-operatively, her cervical bleeding was minimal, and her HCT on discharge was stable at 31. . #Leukocytosis: She presented with a leukocytosis of 20.2. Differential included complicated urinary tract infection vs. malignancy/stress reaction. She received 2 doses of ceftriaxone, which was discontinued after urine culture was negative. Blood culture were no growth at the time of this discharge summary. . #Anion gap metabolic acidosis: Most likely ___ ___ and uremia, lactate normal at 1.1. VBG on admission revealed a pH of 7.31. . #Code status: Patient was okay with intubation but was DNR . #Soc: She was seen by social work for her new diagnosis, coping, and resources. By hospital day 4/post-operative day 2, her creatinine was significantly improved, and her electrolytes were normalized. She was tolerating a regular diet, ambulating independently, and pain was controlled with percocet. She was then discharged home in stable condition with plans for outpatient follow-up with ___ urology, ___ Kidney and Hypertension, ___ radiation oncology, and Dr. ___. Medications on Admission: none Discharge Medications: 1. docusate sodium 100 mg Capsule Sig: One (1) Capsule PO BID (2 times a day) as needed for constipation. Disp:*60 Capsule(s)* Refills:*2* 2. oxycodone-acetaminophen ___ mg Tablet Sig: One (1) Tablet PO Q4H (every 4 hours) as needed for pain.

Be careful on special occasions or holidays, and drink only what you usually would on any regular day of the week. Monitoring: The doctor decides how much ___ you need by testing your blood. The test measures how fast your blood is clotting and lets the doctor know if your dosage should change. If your blood test is too high, you might be at risk for bleeding problems. If it is too low, you might be at risk for forming clots. Your doctor has decided on a range on the blood test that is right for you. The blood test used for monitoring is called an INR. Use of Other medications: When Coumadin/warfarin is taken with other medicines it can change the way other medicines work. Other medicines can also change the way ___ works. It is very important to talk with your doctor about all of the other medicines that you are taking, including over-the-counter medicines, antibiotics, vitamins, or herbal products.

Evaluation limited due to severe dextroscoliotic deformity and kyphotic angulation of the chest. Allowing for this, no definite signs of pneumonia or overt CHF. No large effusion or pneumothorax is seen. Overall, cardiomediastinal silhouette appears essentially stable. EKG (___): Ectopic atrial rhythm. Early R wave transition. Non-specific ST segment changes. Left ventricular hypertrophy. Compared to the previous tracing of ___ the findings are similar. IntervalsAxes ___ ___ Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is an ___ with history of dementia (non-verbal at baseline) and deep venous thrombosis on Coumadin who presented with fever of unknown origin. Active Issues: (1)Fever of unknown origin/goals of care: Source of fever at rehabilitation remained unclear, but fever did not recur over the course of admission. There was no clear evidence of infection in the setting of bland urinalysis, unremarkable CXR, negative influenza DFA, and blood cultures with no growth by the time of discharge, and she was otherwise without SIRS/sepsis physiology. Occult malignancy could not be excluded, though there was low suspicion for hematologic malignancy, given normal complete blood count, or primary/metastatic hepatic malignancy, given normal liver function tests. Ultimately, a family meeting took place, and the decision was made not to pursue further evaluation since she would not be a candidate for treatment of malignancy or autoimmune disease; nevertheless, she remained full code throughout admission. Family is considering changing Ms. ___ advance directives to emphasize comfort care. This will be left to the team at ___ that knows her well to officially make this change. (2)Hypernatremia: Sodium was found to be 150 on admission, likely due to poor oral intake with insensible losses in the setting of fever. Sodium had improved to 144 by the time of discharge with administration of ___. Inactive Issues: (1)Advanced dementia: She remained at reported baseline throughout admission, rousable to voice, but nonverbal and unable to follow commands. (2)Deep venous thrombosis: Coumadin was held throughout brief admission due to INR of 3.6 on admission and may be resumed as indicated to maintain INR of ___. (3)Macrocytosis: Mean corpuscular volume was found to be 105-109 in the absence of frank anemia. It appears that macrocytosis has been present since ___, when mean corpuscular volume was 101. Transitional Issues: - Coumadin was held throughout brief admission due to INR of 3.6 on admission and may be resumed as indicated to maintain INR of ___. - Pending studies: Blood cultures. - Code status: Full. Medications on Admission: 1. Acetaminophen 650 mg PR Q6H:PRN fever max dose 4gm/day 2. Bisacodyl 10 mg PR HS:PRN constipation 3. Senna 1 TAB PO BID:PRN constipation 4.

Chief Complaint: seizure Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: none History of Present Illness: ___ HIV+ woman from ___ with h/o toxoplasmosis with left sided hemiparesis in ___ who presents with episodes of left-sided facial twitching and left arm tonic posturing. She says in ___, when she was found to have toxoplasmosis, she had an episode of complete left hemiparesis. She underwent treatment with an antiparasitic drug but she does not remember which one. She was initially treated with Bactrim but has a severe allergy to this and was transitioned to a different medication that she does not remember. Since that time she has been completely normal with no neurological deficits other than occasionally feeling some weakness on the left side. She walks unassisted and is able to perform all of her activities of daily living. She says that around 7 ___ yesterday, she noticed 5 seconds of left facial twitching. She felt as if her lip was being pulled to the side. About 30 minutes later, it happened again and lasted longer this time (maybe ___. This morning, she started to have it happen again and she thinks that it happened ___ times over the day. Each episode lasts approximately 10 seconds. She thinks that if she were to smile, she could smile through the twitching but nothing makes the twitching stop. She has a sensation of lightheadedness when the twitching is occurring. At one point today, she was with her friend when her left arm became very stiff and flexed up towards her body. She thinks that this tonic stiffness lasted approximately 30 seconds to a minute. She had to use her right hand to loosen up the left hand and release the fingers and arm from the flexed position. This arm movement only happened once. Because of these episodes, she presented to ___ and had a ___ which showed "right parietal lobe hypodense abnormality which could be acute (infarct or edema) or chronic (gliosis)." The MRI at ___ is broken so she was transferred to ___ for this imaging. Neurology was consulted for further management and workup recommendations. On neuro ROS, episodes of facial twitching and left arm posturing with some lightheadedness described above, occasional sensation of left-sided weakness but walks unassisted. The pt denies headache, loss of vision, blurred vision, diplopia, dysarthria, dysphagia, tinnitus or hearing difficulty. Denies difficulties producing or comprehending speech. Denies numbness, parasthesiae. No bowel or bladder incontinence or retention. Denies difficulty with gait. On general review of systems, the pt denies recent fever or chills.

There is poorly defined subcortical white matter enhancement involving regions of the bilateral frontal, parietal, and temporal lobes. Scattered foci of susceptibility artifact correspond to parenchymal calcifications identified on recent outside hospital noncontrast head CT. Around the largest known calcification in the right mid brain, there is peripheral, rim enhancement. No evidence of hemorrhage, infarction, or mass effect. The ventricles and sulci are normal in caliber and configuration. The major vascular flow voids appear patent. On post-contrast MPRAGE sequences, there is a probable developmental venous anomaly draining the right basal ganglia. The dural venous sinuses are patent. There is mild mucosal thickening of the ethmoid air cells. IMPRESSION: 1. Overall distribution of T2/FLAIR signal hyperintensity extending to the subcortical U fibers is most consistent with PML rather than HIV encephalitis. 2. Relatively subtle subcortical white matter enhancement involving regions of the bilateral frontal, parietal, and temporal lobes has an appearance most consistent with immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome. However, the documented clinical picture may be more consistent with progressive immunocompromise rather than immune reconstitution. In this setting, it is conceivable that the subtle enhancement is related to PML, though PML does not usually enhance. 3. Peripheral enhancement around a prominent right midbrain calcification suggests reactivated toxoplasmosis. However, calcifications as demonstrated on prior outside hospital CT suggests there is likely a superimposed component of neurocysticercosis. EEG ___: IMPRESSION: This is a normal continuous EMU monitoring study. There are no epileptiform discharges or electrographic seizures in this recording. Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is a ___ female from ___ with HIV and history of toxoplasmosis with left sided hemiparesis in ___ that resolved, who was admitted with several episodes of left-sided facial twitching and a single episode of left arm tonic posturing concerning for seizure versus dystonic movements. Her exam was notable for only mild bilateral triceps weakness and left posturing on stressed gait. She had a brain MRI that was concerning for T2/FLAIR hyperintensities to subcortical U fibers consistent with PML, subcortical white matter enhancement in bilateral frontal/parietal/temporal lobes consistent with ___ vs. progressive immunocompromise; peripheral enhancement around prominent R midbrain calcification suggests reactivation of toxoplasmosis, possible superimposed neurocysticercosis. LP was completed with opening pressure 13cm H20, 3 WBC, 0 RBC, protein 54 and glucose 67. CSF gram stain negative. She was started on Keppra up to 750mg BID. EEG was negative for seizures although no events were captured. She had some intermittent left upper lip twitching that was non-rhythmic, more likely myokimia than seizure. We recommended continued hydration and monitoring of these events. Infectious disease was consulted and continued to follow closely. She was seen by Ophthalmology who performed a dilated eye exam that was normal. She was continued on her HAART therapy. Her CD4 count was 580, indicative of good control of her HIV. In discussion with her outpatient ID providers at ___, her CD4 count has not been below 500. Toxo IgG+/IgM- in serum (indicative of prior infection, less likely reactivation) with Toxo and Cryptococcus Ag negative in CSF. Serum ___ virus Ab was positive, but CSF ___ virus PCR negative (making PML unlikely especially in clinical setting of her well appearance). Beta-2 microglobulin was elevated at 4.41 (normal 0.36-2.56) with flow cytology negative for malignancy and non-diagnostic cytometry (not enough cells in CSF). Pending studies include neurocysticercosis Ab, TB CSF studies and EBV PCR from CSF. She has an Infectious Disease appointment in 1 week to follow these studies. Her presentation was most consistent with a focal motor seizure so she will stay of Keppra. The etiology of the diffuse white matter changes is still unknown; she should have repeat imaging in 3 months to follow and consider repeat lumbar puncture in the future pending her clinical status. At the time of discharge she remained afebrile with stable vital signs and intact neurologic exam with no appreciable weakness or other focal deficits.

You had a brain MRI that was abnormal due to an enhancing lesion likely due to prior toxoplasmosis in addition to diffuse white matter changes, possibly infectious in etiology, although there is no clear explanation for it at this time. You should have a repeat MRI in the future to follow this. You should continue your home medications in addition to a new medication, Keppra, to prevent seizures. You will have close follow-up with Infectious Disease and Neurology. Best, Your ___ Neurology Team Followup Instructions: ___

She is now transferred to the ICU for worsening respiratory status, tachycardia, hypotension, lactic acidosis, and progressive encephalopathy. Patient was recently diagnosed with hepatitis C and cirrhosis within the past month. She has had increasing abdominal distention and abdominal pain and underwent at CT scan ___ which showed a cirrhotic liver with large amount of ascites, cholelithiasis, and diverticulosis. Labs were notable for an HCV VL of 498,146 on ___. The patient had been on diuretics in the past with profound weight loss (approx. 40lbs in 2 weeks), and diuretics had been stopped. It appears that the patient had stopped taking home diuretics for a wedding but subsequently restarted on 40 Lasix and 50 mg aldactone BID, however has had continued weight gain. She has had some nausea as well which was being treated with Zofran and omeprazole, however per report has been refractory to these treatments. The patient has been noted to be unsteady while walking as well as increasing confusion by her sister. Of note the patient had been seen by Atrius gastroenterology on ___ with concern for tense ascites, which had been developing over the past 6 months. She was recommended to go to the ED for large volume paracentesis though the patient deferred at the time. The patient went to a ___ hepatology appointment on the day of admission where she was short of breath, confused with significant ascites. She also complained of increased lower extremity swelling, difficulty walking, and significant exertional dyspnea and wheezing for a week. She was referred in to the ___ ED. In the ED, initial vitals were T 96.5 HR 118 BP 96/58 RR 18. Exam was notable for non tender distended abdomen. Initial labs were notable for WBC 13.9, AST 50, ALT 25, Alk phos 138, Tbili 3.5, Albumin 2.5, lipase 19, INR 1.9, Lactate 4.0, VBG 7.41/36/34/24. The patient had a diagnostic paracentesis with 317 WBC (4 Poly, 62 lymph), 422 RBC, protein 1.6, Glucose 104. RUQ US with dopplers revealed cirrhosis with large volume ascites. Portal vein was patent. Also noted to have cholelithiasis without evidence of cholecystitis. The patient was given: ___ 12:08 IVF 1000 mL NS 1000 mL. When seen on the floor initially on arrival the patient reported that she was feeling mildly short of breath. She also reported stomach discomfort and lower leg. Limited review of symptoms secondary to mental status was notable for improved nausea (last emesis reported 4 days prior), as well as mild dysuria for 1 month duration. Patient also reports dark stools in the past, although not exactly clear when this was. Shortly after arrival to the floor, she underwent therapeutic paracentesis. Shortly prior to, and during this procedure she was becoming increasingly tachypneic, agitated, and flailing around in bed. Although 3L of ascites was removed, the paracentesis was stopped due to safety concern given her agitation. MICU consult was called when she became progressively more agitated (writing in bed, disoriented, inattentive, grabbing and lines and monitoring devices), tachycardia to 140s-150s, tachypneic (RR ___, and hypotensive to SPB ___. She had no IV access and so was unable to receive medications.

No evidence of retroperitoneal hematoma, no definite cause for patient's hemoglobin and hematocrit drop identified. 2. Cirrhotic appearing liver with 1.5 cm hypodense lesion in segment ___. Further evaluation with dedicated MRI is recommended. 3. Left lower lobe consolidation, compatible with underlying pneumonia or aspiration. For continued follow-up with chest radiographs. 4. Wall thickening involving the ascending and proximal transverse colon is likely a reflection of third spacing/ portal colopathy. ___: CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST IMPRESSION: 1. Limited examination secondary to patient motion artifact. Within these confines, no acute intracranial abnormality. ATTENDING NOTE: Brain sulci are effaced. There is slight high-density the tentorium and choroid plexus which may suggest decreased density of the brain parenchyma. Although basal cisterns are patent, this appearance may suggest mild cerebral edema. Followup CTA or MRI can help for further assessment. ___: CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST IMPRESSION: 1. No interval significant change. Persistent probable mild cerebral edema without brain herniation. ___: CT HEAD WITHOUT CONTRAST IMPRESSION: Unchanged mild cerebral edema without herniation. ___: CT ABDOMEN AND PELVIS WITH CONTRAST IMPRESSION: 1. Cirrhotic liver with large volume ascites. No organized collection. The main portal vein is patent. 2. The small hypodense lesion in segment 8 is again appreciated, though it appears slightly smaller compared to prior, incompletely characterized. 3. Thickened distal duodenum and jejunum, suggesting focal infection/ inflammation. 4. Thickened endometrium given patient's age. Elective pelvic ultrasound recommended for further evaluation in the absence of vaginal bleeding. 5. Left lower lobe near complete collapse, with associated peripheral round parenchymal hypodense lung, which may represent a pulmonary infection or infarct. 6. Cholelithiasis. RECOMMENDATION(S): Thickened endometrium given patient's age. Elective pelvic ultrasound recommended for further evaluation in the absence of vaginal bleeding. Brief Hospital Course: ___ year old woman with a history of chronic hepatitis C with cirrhosis, complicated by portal hypertension and ascites, sent to the ED from initial Liver clinic evaluation for mild hepatic encephalopathy and shortness of breath in the setting of volume overload. She was transferred to the ICU for worsening respiratory status, tachycardia, hypotension, lactic acidosis, and progressive encephalopathy secondary to hemorrhagic shock due to esophageal variceal bleed. #Goals of Care: Patient presented with hemorrhagic shock secondary to variceal bleed. Her hospital course was complicated by spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, encephalopathy, progressive liver dysfunction (with uptrending bilirubin to 30.6 with progressively progressing INR to 4.2 even with vitamin K supplementation), persistent leukocytosis (even after broad spectrum antibiotics with vancomycin and Meropenem), and anuric renal failure secondary to ATN. Given her critical status a family meeting took place with patient being confirmed DNR/DNI. When patient's encephalopathy resolved and patient was able to communicate, she expressed her desire to remain DNR/DNI. A meeting took place with Ms. ___ and ___ HCP/sister (___) to describe her medical condition. During that meeting, it was indicated that she would likely require dialysis given her hepatorenal syndrome. After indicating her options for her progressive liver dysfunction, her progressive kidney dysfunction, and prognosis, she indicated that she would never want to be initiated on hemodialysis under any circumstances. Ms. ___ confirmed that she did not want to undergo any further invasive procedures, and wanted to eat for comfort. This was confirmed with her and her healthcare proxy ___ during a family meeting on ___. Options for comfort care were explored with Ms. ___ and ___ HCP with decision to move towards transition to a hospice center. Her status was changed to DNR/DNI/CMO. Ms. ___ was subsequently discharged to hospice. # Hepatitis C Cirrhosis: Complicated by esophageal varices/esophageal variceal bleed, ascites/SBP, hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome. -Hepatic Encephalopathy: presented with acute HE on this admission with worsening mental status over the course of her hospital stay. Continued on lactulose and rifaximin with minimal improvement in mental status. -Esophageal Varices: The patient presented with bleeding esophageal varices s/p banding on ___ with hemostasis achieved. Initially on octreotide gtt and protonix gtt, later transitioned to protonix BID -Ascites c/b SBP: The patient has significant abdominal ascites with therapeutic paracentesis performed on ___ with 6.5L removed and ___ with 4L removed. During hospitalization, patient had continued decompensation of her liver. Bilirubin continued to uptrend to 30.6 with INR prolonging to 4.2 in spite of vitamin K supplementation. Etiology of the acute decompensation was thought to be secondary to septic shock/SBP. # Anuric Renal Failure Secondary to Hepatorenal Syndrome: In the setting of SBP and decompensated liver, patient's creatinine continued to uptrend from a nadir of 0.4 on ___ with rapid rise to 3.0 on ___, associated with anuria. Urine lytes showed urine Na less than 20 consistent with HRS. Patient was treated for HRS with Albumin challenge x 2 days, midodrine 20 mg TID, and octreotide 100 mcg SC Q8H with subsequent uptitration to octreotide 200 mcg SC Q8H. As patient developed anuric renal failure thought to be secondary to HRS, dialysis was likely needed. After discussion with Ms. ___ and family regarding dialysis, Ms. ___ indicated she would not want dialysis under any circumstances. Giver her progressive liver disease and renal function without dialysis as an outpatient, Ms. ___ decided to move towards comfort focused care. She was subsequently discharged to hospice. #Hemorrhagic Shock, Esophageal Variceal bleed: Patient initially transferred to ICU for hypotension/shock, initiated on levophed and neo for blood pressure support. Given H/H drop and notable melena and blood gastric output during intubation there was concern for upper GIB. GI consulted and EGD performed which demonstrated bleeding esophageal varices. Patient initiated on massive transfusion protocol and received 6U pRBC, ___, 1U plts. Underwent successful esophageal banding and was initiated on octreotide gtt and protonix BID. Following esophageal banding, the patient had no evidence of re-bleed for several days. However, as patient began to experience liver decompensation, patient's NG output was notable for blood. Given patient's poor prognosis and medical condition as noted above, discussion with patient and family took place with decision to move towards comfort measures without additional interventions. She moved towards hospice care and was discharged to hospice with NG tube to suction. #Septic Shock, SBP: Ascitic fluid on ___ positive for pan-sensitive E. Coli initially on vanc/cefepime/flagyl later transitioned to ceftriaxone alone given sensitivities of E.Coli. Over the course of her hospital stay, the patient remained encephalopathic with rising TBili and INR concerning for liver decompensation. To assess etiology of the liver decompensation, repeat diagnostic paracentesis was performed (___) which showed persistent elevated WBC, but no organisms. Given concern for persistent infection, the patient was rebroadened to ___ on ___. Repeat diagnostic paracentesis on ___ improved, however, patient continued to have persistently elevated leukocytosis and uptrending bilirubin concerning for continued liver decompensation, even while on vancomycin/meropenem with intermittent need for pressors. Other sources of infection were investigated with blood cultures, urine cultures, CXR not showing any additional source of infection. As noted above, given patient's poor prognosis and desire for comfort care, antibiotics were discontinued and she was discharged to hospice. #Encephalopathy: Likely multifactorial due to underlying hepatic encephalopathy, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, medication effect, and acute renal failure. CT head showed mild cerebral edema without herniation which was stable on repeat CT head imaging x2. EEG negative for seizures. The patient was on vancomycin and meropenem for SBP and continued on lactulose/rifaximin for hepatic encephalopathy. Over the course of her hospital stay, her mental status improved significantly. As noted above, patient was transitioned to hospice. She was discharged on lactulose and rifaximin to prevent further hepatic encephalopathy while at hospice. #Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure: Likely secondary to aspiration in the setting of emergent intubation given upper GIB. Abdominal distension from ascites also contributing. The patient underwent two paracentesis ___ with 6.5L removed) and ___ with 4 L removed. Her respiratory status improved and patient was able to pass SBT. She was subsequently extubated. Following extubation, she was able to saturate well on 4L nasal cannula. #Hypernatremia: Occurred in the setting of lactulose and increased stool output. Improved with D5W and encouraging PO intake. #Coagulopathy: Secondary to underlying cirrhosis. Managed with FFP in the setting of massive GIB later given vitamin K 10mg IV x3 days once bleeding resolved. However, as noted, above, patient experienced progressive liver decompensation with rising INR to 4.2 even with vitamin K supplementation.

No cord signal abnormalities. No MRI findings to suggest etiology of patient's symptoms. MRI C-spine w/ and without contrast ___: IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of spinal cord signal abnormality or abnormal enhancement. 2. Very mild degenerative disease, without spinal canal narrowing and only moderately severe left and mild right neural foraminal narrowing at C6-7, with likely exiting left C7 neural impingement MRI L-spine w/ and without contrast ___: IMPRESSION: 1. Diffuse contrast enhancement of the right L2 nerve root without nodularity, and no evidence for underlying mechanical compression. This suggests a nonspecific inflammatory process. 2. The visualized distal spinal cord appears normal in morphology and signal intensity without abnormal enhancement. 3. Mild degenerative changes without spinal canal narrowing, neural foraminal narrowing, or nerve root impingement. EMG: ___ IMPRESSION: Essentially normal study. There is no electrophysiologic evidence for an acute, inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP) (as in Guillain- ___ syndrome). The mild abnormalities of peroneal motor nerve conductions are of uncertain clinical significance. Nerve conduction studies may be normal in the first week of AIDP and the study may be repeated in ___ weeks if clinically warranted. Brief Hospital Course: ___ was admitted to the General Neurology service due to the concern for four days of ascending numbness in her bilateral lower extremities. At the time of admission she had loss of pain and temperature sensation in a patchy distribution in her lower extremities and a dense sensory loss in her perineal area. She was initially evaluated for atypical ___ syndrome versus spinal cord compression. Her initial MRI of the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine was negative and a lumbar puncture showed CSF which was bland. Her exam continued to evolve and after her ankle reflexes disappeared, she was started empirically on IVIg therapy. She develped a band of sensory loss in the L2 distribution which resolved after one day but which prompted repeat MRI of the lumbar spine with contrast. This scan showed isolated contrast enhancement of the L2 nerve root. She had an EMG which was essentially normal; it was uclear if this was too early in the course to expect changes, although she had been symptomatic for more than one week at that time. She developed a new headache with nausea and vomiting. She was found to have a transaminitis in a hepatocellular pattern, workup described below. Her lumbar puncture was repeated and showed a leukocytosis with 213 WBCs, lymphocytic predominance. Her IVIg was stopped due to concern for adverse effects including aseptic meningitis. The infectious disease service was consulted. Multiple serologies for tick-borne disease, viruses and bacteria were sent. Her headache was persistent and worsened with standing up, but her nausea and vomiting resolved. Her headache was thought to be secondary to aseptic meningitis versus post-LP headache. She also developed a trunkal rash which subsequently spread to her neck, face and inner thighs. Over the course of several days her neurologic symptoms began gradually to improve and she had the gradual return of sensation in her perineal area and upper thighs. Her headache likewise continued to improve and she was discharged to follow up in primary care and neurology clinics. She developed diarrhea, nausea and vomiting on the second day of IVIg. Labs were notable for elevated LFTs in a hepatocellular pattern. Hepatitis serologies were sent and were negative for Hepatitis C virus, prior exposure versus vaccination for Hepatitis B virus, and prior exposure versus vaccination to Hepatitis A virus. Right upper quadrant ultrasound was normal. Her transaminitis was attributed to viral versus IVIg adverse effect. Overall, her symptoms were thought to be most likely to be secondary to a viral syndrome which caused polyradiulitis, aseptic meningitis, hepatitis and rash; alternatively she may have had an underlying polyradiculitis with subsequent development of IVIg related adverse effects. After discharge, her serologies were notable for positive ___ virus titers, as well as previous exposures to EBV, CMV, and anaplasma.

Discharge Disposition: Home Discharge Diagnosis: lower extremity sensory loss aseptic meningitis and hepatocellular transaminitis thought to be secondary to a viral process. Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Neuro exam = patchy sensory loss (pain/temperature) in distal aspects of feet bilaterally. Otherwise WNL. Discharge Instructions: You were admitted to the hospital for numbness in your legs and groin. While you were here we performed multiple tests to determine the cause of your symptoms. You were briefly treated with IVIG because we suspected you might have Guillain ___ Syndrome. After being on IVIG for a few days, you developed a headache, nausea, malaise, back pain and a rash. We believe many of your symptoms were a side effect of the IVIG, so this medication was stopped. We saw that you had inflammatory cells in your spinal fluid and elevated liver enzymes as well. Unfortunately, we are not certain of your diagnosis. We suspect that you have had a viral infection which has caused your symptoms. We do not think that you have any condition that requires treatment at this time, but we anticipate that your symptoms will improve with time. We are discharging you home, but if you have any new symptoms or worsening of your symptoms you should contact your primary care doctor immediately as you may need to return to the hospital. While you were here we treated you with IVIG because we were concerned that you had ___ syndrome. Followup Instructions: ___

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: F Service: NEUROLOGY Allergies: latex Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: Sensory changes Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: Lp (___) History of Present Illness: Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman with history of polyradiculopathy of unclear etiology who presented with chief complaint of three days of sequentially progressive numbness in left leg, parasthesias in right thigh, numbness in left thumb and forearm. Today she is coming in with three days of sequentially progressive symptoms. She first noticed a cool sensation in her left calf which has progressed to numbness and temperature loss in her left leg from the knee down. The leg feels like its asleep. subsequently developed hypersensitivity with allodynia in right thigh, today with numbness and parasthesias in left thumb and lateral forearm. She does not feel weak. One week ago she had an outbreak of cold sores, in upper and lower lips inside the mouth and on the lips themselves. She had attributed this to the sun but did not have any other symptoms of sun exposure such as sunburn. There was no other mucosal involvement. They resolved after a week. They looked like crusty blisters on the lips. On the inside of her mouth they looked like blisters but not canker sores. She has gotten cold sores for her entire life, usually with sun exposure, illness, or stress. She has not had any fevers, aches or malaise nor any infectious symptoms aside from the cold sores. Her vision appears stable. Two months ago her head was very itchy and she thought she might have lice. She went to the ED and was told she did not have lice. She says that she has a rash on the scalp and back of her neck, red and bumpy, with pruritus. She stopped a lot of her hair products without change in her symptoms. She denies genital ulcers. Her period has become irregular and wonders if she is starting menopause. Prior Neurologic history per recent DC summaries: She was admitted to the general neurology service from ___ for ascending numbness and a concern for GBS. During this admission she had patchy pain and temperature sensation loss in the lower extremities, as well as L2 and perianal sensory loss. Initial MRI of the entire spine with and without contrast was normal, as was her initial lumbar puncture. She had a normal EMG. She got two doses of IVIG ___ and ___, which was stopped due to development of headache, nausea, vomiting, transaminitis and truncal rash. Repeat MRI L-spine for L2 sensory loss after IVIG showed enhancement of the L2 nerve root. Repeat LP also after IVIG showed WBC 270, 75% lymphocytes, again with normal protein and glucose (thought to be aseptic meningitis ___ IVIG). Workup was positive only for detection of serum ___ virus, for which she has seen ID in clinic, the significance of which is uncertain. She had many other studies done including infectious (VDRL, arbovirus, enterovirus, VZV, HSV, CMV, EBV, borellia, HIV, Lyme, leptospira, mycoplasma), immunologic (sed rate, CRP, ___, ro, la) which were all normal/negative. Her neurologic symptoms (including numbness, parasthesias and headache) began to improve and she was discharged home with a presumed viral syndrome, and by follow up on ___, her symptoms were mainly resolved and have not recurred. ___ Ms. ___ was hospitalized for five days of visual changes, specifically bilateral visual field defects. At the time of admission, she described having a "bright" spot in each visual field in the temporal side of each field, not obscuring her peripheral vision. Additionally, she reported a bifrontal headache and some photophobia. Her neurological exam was otherwise normal, and her visual field defect was completely stable over the course of her admission. She was initially evaluated for vasculitis vs. sarcoidosis, with empiric coverage for HSV/VZV encephalitis given her symptoms and a cold sore present on her lip at the time of admission. Acyclovir was later stopped once HSV PCR came back negative. Her initial MRI showed an ill-defined 8 mm focus of FLAIR hyperintensity with slowed diffusion and enhancement in the left medial temporal lobe, with multifocal narrowing of the bilateral ACAs and the right MCA; these findings were concerning for vasculitis, with demyelinating disease lower on the differential. She was started on verapamil for cerebral vasospasm prophylaxis. A lumbar puncture was completed under fluoroscopy, and neuro-opthalmology was consulted. Neuro-opthalmology localized the deficit to the optic chiasm based on central bitemporal defects on formal visual field testing (initial and follow-up testing), and opthalmologic exam was otherwise normal, including specialized macular testing (optical coherence tomography). Dedicated MR imaging of the chiasm and orbits was completed and was unremarkable. An autoimmune work-up was initiated (all negative), as well as a paraneoplastic workup including CT torso, which was unremarkable. A cerebral angiogram was completed, which was normal, and the decision was made to begin a 5-day course of IV solumedrol, the final dose of which was to be administered after discharge at a local facility on ___. Overall, her symptoms were thought to be due to inflammation vs. very localized ischemia at the optic chiasm, causing her specific central bitemporal visual field defect. There was no evidence of an anatomic issue at the chiasm, no evidence of cord compression, myelitis, or meningitis, no evidence of systemic or cerebral vasculitis, no evidence of malignancy or para-neoplastic process, and no other concerning neurological symptoms. On neurologic review of systems, the patient denies headache, lightheadedness, or confusion. Denies difficulty with producing or comprehending speech. Denies loss of vision, blurred vision, diplopia, vertigo, tinnitus, hearing difficulty, dysarthria, or dysphagia. Denies muscle weakness. Denies bowel or bladder incontinence or retention. Denies difficulty with gait. On general review of systems, the patient denies fevers, rigors, night sweats, or noticeable weight loss. Denies chest pain, palpitations, dyspnea, or cough. Denies nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, or abdominal pain. Denies dysuria or hematuria. Denies myalgias, arthralgias.

Mild degenerative changes within the cervical and lumbar spine, as described, without spinal cord or nerve root compression. CSF PATHOLOGY AND CYTOLOGY Pathology pending Cytology negative. Brief Hospital Course: Ms. ___ is a ___ yo woman with history of bilateral patchy sensory loss, aseptic meningitis ___ to IVIG, optic chiasmopathy, prior ACA narrowing on CTA head, who presented with new patchy sensory loss involving multiple peripheral and nerve roots. Prior MRI Brain showed a FLAIR hyperintensity in the left temporal lobe that was initially enhancing but on repeat scan in ___ no longer is. Prior CTA was concerning for ACA narrowing and possibly consistent with vasculitis. She has had an extensive neurological workup during prior admissions, without a clear etiology of her symptoms. Initial differential was broad but given her extensive negative workup inflammatory/autoimmune demyelinating condition or vasculitis ___ to autoimmune vs inflammatory conditions including Behcets, Histiocytosis X, Wegeners, Polyarteritis nodosa, cryoglobulinemia, sarcoidosis. Infectious etiology including mycoplasma. Her MRI was significant for T12 enhancing spinal cord lesion as well as stable prior temporal lobe lesion. An extensive workup was sent as detailed below that was only positive lymphocytic pleocytosis with mildly high protein in CSF: - LFTs wnl, coags wnl - TB quant gold wnl, ANCA wnl, ESR wnl, CRP wnl, C3 wnl, C4 wnl, ___ neg, cryoglobulin wnl, ACE wnl, RF wnl, mycoplasma IgG and IgM sent, ferritin wnl, Vit E wnl, B12 wnl, copper wnl, serum lyme was negative. - MRI Brain, C/T/L spine w/wo contrast - T12 spine enhancing lesion consistent with demyelination.

Tube 1 WBC 41, RBC 10, 94% lymphocytes and Tube 2 showed WBC 19, RBC 2, 95% lymphocytes. MS panel pending at the time of discharge, CSF ACE pending, CSF lyme was not run because serum was negative, CSF mycoplasma pending, Paraneoplastic panel pending, CSF VDRL neg, HSV PCR and Varicella PCR negative. - Pathergy test ___ negative. Performed via two venipunctures at two different sites at the antecubital area with skin cleaned with ETOH swab prior to puncture. During her admission Ms ___ sensory symptoms remained fairly stable with sensation of parasthesias and pinprick sensation deficit involving her left lateral forearm extending in a patchy distribution in her hand, her bilateral lateral thighs, and her left foot. She was not given any treatment for her symptoms and as she was very functional and with largely minimal sensory symptoms we discharged her home with outpatient follow up for review of the testing she had in the hospital. Unfortunately, because of the pending labs at the time of discharge, the cause of her symptoms was not determiend on this admission. She was also found to have lice on her scalp while she was an inpatient and was treated with lindane shampoo x2. **Transitional issues: Needs outpatient follow up and had many lab tests pending at the time of discharge. She was instructed to return to the hospital if her symptoms changed or if she developed any concerning worsening of her symptoms.

Ms. ___ states that her symptoms began on the morning of ___. She first noted a "tingling" in her right foot and then a "novacaine" sensation over her anterior right thigh. It is difficult for her to precisely describe the sensation but says that her legs feel "like jello." She also complains that the right leg feels weak and "heavy." She states that when she was at work earlier in the day she was trying to flex the leg at the knee, bringing her heel to her buttocks, and had some trouble maintaining it in that position. She is quite clear that she has never had any weakness before with her prior symptoms. She denies any bowel or bladder symptoms. She denies any bulbar symptoms. She reports that the previous symptoms for which she was admitted are still present and largely stable. Of note, Ms. ___ was recently discharged from the general Neurology Service on ___. She presented on ___ with three days of sequentially progressive symptoms. She first noticed a cool sensation in her left calf which progressed to numbness and temperature loss from the left knee down. She then developed hypersensitivity with allodynia over right thigh, and finally numbness and parasthesias in left thumb and lateral forearm. She denied any weakness at that time. Ms. ___ underwent MRI of the neuro-axis, revealing a new T2-intense T11-12 enhancing lesion as well as a stable to improved FLAIR hyperintense temporal lobe lesion.

Unremarkable MRI of the brain without evidence of acute intracranial abnormality. No evidence of multiple sclerosis. 2. Normal appearance of the left mesial temporal cortex with resolution of previously described signal abnormality. Brief Hospital Course: Brief course: We repeated an MRI of the brain and spine to look for new areas of inflammation to account for RLE weakness but this only re-demonstrated the previously seen area of cord inflammation, which was slightly more avidly enhancing and possibly slightly larger. We suspected this was the cause of the right leg weakness. We had previously not treated with steroid given limited extent, indolent course, and sensory symptoms only. Since there was now a deficit in strength we did decide to treat but since the weakness was relatively mild and she did not have any major radiographic change, we did not need to keep her in the hospital for intravenous steroids or physical therapy. We discharged her with 25 tablets of prednisone, each one 20mg. Days ___: Take 3 tabs (60mg) once a day Day 8: Take 2 tabs (40mg) Day 9: Take 1 tab (20mg) Days ___ & ___: Take ___ tab (10mg) Then stop prednisone We informed her of possible side effects including high blood sugar; since pt not diabetic or otherwise ill we did not think this would be an issue even if mildly elevated but asked her to see PCP ___ 3 days for finger stick. We recommended 2 TUMS a day while on steroids. . She has a follow-up appointment with Dr. ___ on ___ (see below) and at that point they can decide whether or not an EMG would be useful. Since underlying diagnosis is not completely clear, evidence of peripheral nerve problems (with EMG) would be helpful in understanding your condition. Though bands from recent hospitalization were positive, this is quite atypical for MS given the isolated low cord lesion and chiasm without characteristic findings elsewhere. Further, she may have peripheral involvement as well. DDx includes Langerhans histiocytosis and Behcet's (though pathergy negative x1 could repeat). CRMP-5 titer was < 1:2 but titers lower than ___ be detectable by recombinant CRMP-5 western blot analysis, available by request on stored spinal fluid and recommended in cases of chorea, vision loss, cranial neuropathy and myelopathy.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms ___, We repeated an MRI of your brain and spine to look for new areas of inflammation which might account for your right leg weakness but we found none. The location of the previously identified area of inflammation seems to be the cause of your right leg weakness and is a little more obvious on this scan than it was on the prior (however, there is no dramatic change). Since the deficit in strength is relatively mild and you do not have any major radiographic change, we do not need to keep you in the hospital for intravenous steroids or physical therapy. However, we would like to give you a course of steroids by mouth to prevent the inflammation from worsening. You will have 25 tablets of prednisone, each one 20mg. Days ___: Take 3 tabs (60mg) once a day Day 8: Take 2 tabs (40mg) Day 9: Take 1 tab (20mg) Days ___ & 11: Take ___ tab (10mg) Then stop prednisone I think that this will improve the inflammation in your spinal cord. You may have some waxing/waning of your symptoms, but please come back if you have marked worsening or strength, inability to walk, urinary retention or incontinence. You have a follow-up appointment with Dr. ___ on ___ (see below) and at that point they can decide whether or not an EMG would be useful. Since your underlying diagnosis is not completely clear, evidence of peripheral nerve problems (with EMG) would be helpful in understanding your condition. Followup Instructions: ___

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: You were hospitalized for the evaluation of altered mental status. It is thought that your confusion is owed to a multitude of reasons. The first being your most recent use of high dose steroids. You were advised to discontinue your prednisone per your primary care doctor's request. In the hospital, you were also found to have signs consistent with a urinary tract infection. You were started on antibiotic medications to treat these signs. It is possible that this infection played a role in your confusion and weakness prior to coming to the hospital. Lastly, from your history of sciatic back and leg pain, we discussed the potential role of your home prescriptions for Dilaudid (Hydromorphone) and Neurontin (Gabapentin) as contributors to your confusion. It is advised that you adhere to your PCP's instruction for their continued use but to also monitor for potential medication side effects and interactions with other drugs. You were evaluated by the physical therapy and occupational therapy services as an inpatient. It has been strongly recommended that you begin home occupational therapy with ___ services to help optimize the completion of your activites of daily living at home. New Medications: You left the hospital with a prescirption for Ciprofloxacin. This antibiotic should be used for only 2 days. It is intended to treat your urinary tract infection.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. ___, You were admitted to the hospital because you were feeling dizzy and lightheaded at home. The most likely cause of your symptoms is an abrupt change in blood pressure when you go from lying to standing (orthostatic hypotension). In order to ___ minimize your symptoms, it is important that you maintain good fluid intake, sit on the edge of bed for several minutes prior to standing up in the morning, and wear compression stockings. The dose for your beta blocker (Metoprolol) was also decreased to 12.5mg daily as a slower heart rate may worsen your symptoms. Your heart was monitored throughout your admission and there were no episodes of abnormal heart rates/rhythms. The neurologists examined you and felt that your symptoms were not consistent with a stroke. It is important, however, that you follow-up with your new neurologist as scheduled below given your history of prior stroke. You were found to have a urinary tract infection, which you have also had in the past. You were treated with intravenous antibiotics. Please take 1 additional dose of cefpodoxime to complete your course. It was a pleasure taking care of you! Sincerely, Your ___ Care Team Followup Instructions: ___

She was evaluated by surgery with no plan for urgent surgery. She was subsequently admitted to medicine for workup of fall and found to have a UTI and subtheraputic INR. She was bridged to a therapeutic INR prior to discharge and discharged on warfarin 2.5mg daily. Her hematoma was observed and was stable. ACUTE ISSUES: # Sub-galeal hematoma # Left 7th rib fracture # Unwitnessed fall: The patient presented with a fall. she was observed on telemetry for 24 hours without evidence of arrhythmia. Orthostatic vital signs were checked on admission and were negative. She was found to have a UTI which likely worsened patients confusion and leading to fall. The patient has dementia at baseline and often gets confused and tries to get out of her chair/bed. The patients rib fracture does not need surgery follow-up. The patients was found to have a subglial hematoma on her left forehead. She had a head CT which showed no intracranial bleed. Surgery was consulted and did not recommended observation. The patients hematoma was stable during hospitalization and will likely resolve in the coming weeks. Her neurological exam was unchanged from baseline. She was discharged with cefpodoxime to complete a 5 day course for UTI. #UTI The patient was found to have UTI for CITROBACTER KOSERI. The patient did not have dysuria but did have increased urinary frequency. Of note, the patient has dementia and frequently asks to use the restroom as part of a tic from her dementia. She was initially treated with ceftriaxone on ___ and was transitioned to cefpodomixe to complete ___trial Fibrillation The patient has a known history of atrial fibrillation with a Chadsvasc of 7. She was found to have subtheraputic INR. She was bridged to a therapeutic INR on heparin and was discharged on a warfarin dose of 2.5mg with an INR goal of ___. She was continued on home metoprolol with good rate control. # Left leg spasticity - The patient had had leg spasticity since her stroke recently. She was previously treated with clonazepam at night. However with her recent fall this was held to limit deliriogenic medications. Neurology suggested trial of baclofen at night to reduce leg spasms. This was used with good effect. The patient will follow up with neurology as an outpatient for further management CHRONIC ISSUES ============== # Embolic strokes (greatest in R ACA): Patient with stable neurology exam from last admission. She was continued on home anticoagulation with follow up as an outpatient # Severe MR # Chronic Diastolic CHF: TTE last admission showing new RWMAs, worsened LVEF to 45%, severe MR 4+. This admission with bilateral pleural effusions but clinically dry on exam, not on diuretics at home. Bed weight 145 from 149lb on last discharge. She was diuresed with 20mg IV furosemide once and did not have reaccumulation of swelling. # CAD s/p CABG # Chronic LBBB The patient was continued on home Atorvastatin, ASA, Plavix and Metoprolol. Warfarin was bridged as above and continued at 2.5mg daily as an outpatient with an INR goal of ___ for atrial fibrillation. # Anemia # Thrombocytopenia # Hx of CLL: Had been stable as an outpt. Patient did not require transfusion. # Dementia/psych # Metabolic encephalopathy: Held home rivastigmine 3 BID (given nonformulary), continued home citalopram 40mg QD # GERD: Continued home pantoprazole # Insomnia: Continued ramelteon prn for sleep # Goals of Care: During previous admission, palliative care met with patient's son to discuss options in long term planning, felt they may benefit from palliative care involvement in the future pending patient's clinical course.

Brief Hospital Course: ___ y/o male w/ HTN, DMII, PUD s/p clips several years prior, diverticulosis, ESRD on HD (TTS), COPD not on O2 (FVC57%), ischemic cardiomyopathy w/ 35-40%EF, OSA on CPAP, AS, HLD who presented to the ED with abdominal discomfort and nausea ___ esophagitis/gastric and duodenal ulcer, as well as acute cholecystitis, with hospital course c/b mild COPD flair and constipation. #Acute cholecystitis: Patient presented with abdominal pain and N/V, with RUS showing stones and a HIDA showing a non-visualized gallbladder that is diagnostic of acute cholecystitis. CTA of the abdomen and pelvis also showed hyperenhancement of adjacent liver parenchyma, which is also consistent with acute cholecystitis. Patient's abdominal exam remained stable and ___ did not have any guarding, rebound tenderness or ___ sign. Additionally, patient's abdominal pain resolved after the first day of presentation and ___ remained asymptomatic. Patient otherwise remained AFVSS, with downtrending leukocytosis (11 on discharge), as well as negative blood cultures. Per ACS, will defer inpatient cholecystectomy, and recommended medical management. Patient was treated with cipro/flagyl (___) per Dr. ___ recommendations. Patient was well-appearing with a very stable abdominal exam on the day of discharge. ___ will follow-up with ACS in the outpatient setting for evaluation and planning of cholecystectomy. #Duodenal ulcer, gastric ulcer, esophagitis: On presentation, patient had N/V that included a few streaks of blood. ___ did not have any melena. ___ was evaluated by the inpatient GI team who performed an EGD, which showed a 3 cm ulcer without high risk stigmata of bleeding was found in the duodenal bulb. Patient was also found to have a few small shallow ulcers in the stomach body, severe esophagitis in the mid esophagus, and friability in the lower esophagus. Patient was managed conservatively with IV PPI followed by transitioning to PO PPI. H pylori testing was negative. Per GI, patient would benefit from repeat endoscopy in 10 weeks. This was discussed with patient and family with aid of interpreter who cited understanding and will arrange outpatient follow up for repeat EGD. Patient did not have any evidence of GIB while ___ was hospitalized. #Leukocytosis: Patient with leukocytosis that peaked at 25.6 but subsequently downtrended to 11.6 on the day of discharge. This is likely in the setting of acute cholecystitis. # Acute on chronic COPD exacerbation: During this admission, patient developed mild-to-moderate shortness of breath with wheezing on exam that was likely due to a COPD flair. ___ was briefly started on 1L NC and as his wheezing/respiratory status improved, was weaned to room air. Patient was treated with standing duonebs with PRN albuterol, as well as a ___t the time of discharge, his respiratory exam was clear bilaterally, ___ was satting well on RA, and had an ambulatory O2 >96%. Patient was resumed on his home COPD regimen on discharge. #Calcified abdominal mass: Patient was found on CT Abd/Pelvis to have a partially calcified lesion measuring 2.7 x 1.6 x 1.4 cm along the small bowel mesenteric root is indeterminate. The differential considerations include calcified aneurysm versus mesenteric mass. This lesion is not amenable for biopsy. On the CTA Abd/pelvis, this was again visualized at the branch of the SMA in the mid-abdomen. Per radiology, this was likely due to a thrombosed aneurysm and chronic. Carcinoid is less favored given the absence of small bowel abnormality and jejunal location. Based on read seems most likely benign and is in a location which is not amenable to biopsy limiting our ability to work it up further. This was discussed with patient and family with aid of interpreter who cited understanding. #ESRD on HD: Patient with ESRD on HD ___. ___ was continued on his HD while hospitalized at ___.

Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure to care for you at ___ ___. You were admitted to the hospital after you presented with abdominal pain and nausea/vomiting. We performed a CT scan of you abdomen that showed you had gallstones in you gallbladder. We then performed another study that showed you had an infection within your gallbladder, which we started antibiotics for. You tolerated this treatment well and did not have any more abdominal pain for the remainder of your hospitalization. You were evaluated by the surgeons who recommended that you follow-up with a surgeon in clinic in a few weeks to discuss removing your gallbladder to prevent another problem like this. In addition, we performed an endoscopic procedure that showed you had an ulcer in your intestine and severe inflammation in your esophagus. You were started on medications for your ulcer, and you tolerated it well. We also tested you for a bacteria called H Pylori, and the results were still not back at the time of discharge. You will need to follow up with the gastroenterologist and may need to have a repeat endoscopy procedure. Please continue the high dose acid-reducing medication (pantoprazole 40mg twice per day) instead of your omeprazole until you follow up with the gastroenterologist. You were continued with your dialysis while you were hospitalized. We also found that you had a calcified mass in your abdomen, which was likely a calcified out-pouching of one of your blood vessels. This is stable and does not appear to be anything dangerous. Finally, you were seen by the physical therapists who recommended home ___ for further rehabilitation. Please follow up with your doctors at the ___ listed below. Please be sure to take all medications are instructed. We wish you the very best! Sincerely, Your ___ Care Team Followup Instructions: ___

Brief Hospital Course: ___ year-old male with history of ESRD (dialysis tues, thurs, sat), HTN, DMII, HLD, ischemic HFrEF (35-40% EF on TTE ___, moderate aortic stenosis, transferred from outpatient dialysis center with weakness, changes in mental status that rapidly resolved. # Altered mental status: # Dysarthria: Patient was referred from his outpatient dialysis ___ "altered mental status and dysarthria", though upon review of history w/ patient and his son it was described more as dizziness/unsteadiness without dysarthria. Per patient, he does not recall being confused though he does endorse being very tired after HD on ___. His son reports his father was unsteady and very tired-appearing, but not confused or altered. The son also clarified that his speech was normal when he met his father at HD. In the ___ ED, the patient was had normal mental status and no dysarthria. A non-contrast head CT did not show evidence of stroke. Neurology assessed patient in the ED and scored 1 on NIHSS for dysarthria, but the patient is ___ speaking only and it is unclear how they judged this dysarthria. TIA cannot be completely ruled out, but resolution of any deficit within hours does rule out stroke. Regarding other causes of changes in mental status and weakness, the patient was afebrile without identified infectious source. CXR showed pulmonary congestion but no consolidation, and patient was maintaining O2 sats on room air. On the morning of ___, the patient felt well with no complaints. Taken in context, this episode is best explained as hypotension iso fluid shifts following dialysis. Recommend close management of volume status with outpatient HD center. # Mild Pulmonary edema: # ESRD on HD: CXR on admission showed mild pulmonary vascular congestion and trace left pleural effusion along with patchy opacification in the lung bases, more so on the right. This likely represents pulmonary edema iso heart failure and ESRD. Dry weight appears to be 61-62 kg per records, admitted with weight of 65 kg (bed weight). Given patient was maintaining O2 sat on room air, recommend on-going titration of ultrafiltration and fluid management with outpatient HD center. Patient likely became hypotensive due to fluid shifts as above, but also has evidence of pulmonary edema on CXR. # Chronic Combined Systolic/Diastolic HF (EF35-40%): Continue volume management per HD and metoprolol on non-HD days. # Chronic Anemia in setting of ESRD: Patient with chronic anemia (MCV 107) in the setting of ESRD. No evidence of active bleed. Likely anemia of chronic disease. CBC stable. # Chronic constipation: Continued home senna/Colace. # CAD: Continued home metoprolol 25mg XL, aspirin, atorvastatin. # PVD: Continued home aspirin and atorvastatin. # DMII: A1C 5.3 on ___ on atrius records. Continue home regiment Humalog 75/25: 42 U in AM and 20 in ___. Consider lowering insulin dose given A1C of 5.3%. # OSA: Continued home CPAP at night.

CT head at OSH showed hypodensity and posterior cerebral edema concerning for acute stroke. He was not felt to be a tPA candidate, so he was sent to ___ for possible endovascular tPA. Upon presentation to ___ ED, patient was obtunded and lethargic however he would withdraw to pain. A code stroke was called. Head imaging, including a CTA head and neck, was negative for acute stroke. The neurology team did not think this was consistent with acute stroke and felt that this was more consistent with toxic metabolic encephalopathy, likely in the setting of his known decompensated cirrhosis. Despite initial concern that the patient would require intubation in the ED, his mental status improved and intubation was deferred. Of note, patient was recently admitted to ___ from ___ with bleeding esophageal varices. Hospital course was complicated by hepatic encephalopathy, portal hypertensive gastropathy, enterococcus UTI, and malnutrition. Review of the discharge summary shows multiple recent hospitalizations for decompensations of his cirrhosis, which was first diagnosed only a few months ago. In the ED, initial vitals were: 97.8 55 96/62 12 100% Non-Rebreather - Exam notable for: Obtunded, lethargic on presentation but improved.

ACTIVE ISSUES: --------------- # Toxic metabolic encephalopathy # Hepatic encephalopathy The patient was noted have a known history of hepatic encephalopathy and presented elevated ammonia on admission. A code stroke was initially called, as the patient was obtunded, however neurology felt that presentation was more consistent with toxic metabolic encephalopathy. There was no evidence of stroke on CT head or CTA head and neck. The patient is a high risk for hepatic encephalopathy given his TIPS, which was evaluated via ultrasound and patent. The most likely etiology of decompensation is noncompliance with lactulose and rifaximin as patient stated he was unaware he should be taking medications. Infectious workup was negative. The patient's mental status completely cleared within 1 day with regular lactulose and rifaximin. On discharge, he was alert, oriented, conversant and ambulating without assistance. # Decompensated HCV/EtOH cirrhosis Diagnosed in ___. Childs Class B, MELD-Na on admission 9. The patient was noted to have previous admission in ___ with discharge instructions to follow up without outpatient gastroenterologist, Dr. ___ HCV viral load testing and genotyping. There was no ascites on exam. TIPS was patent. The patient was evaluated by nutrition and educated on the importance of a low sodium diet. The patient will need to follow up with PCP as he would greatly benefit from a case manager in the community. CHRONIC ISSUES: ---------------- # Thrombocyotpenia Likely secondary to cirrhosis with possible additional components of alcohol abuse. and acute infection. No active signs of bleeding. The patient did NOT require platelet transfusion. # Chronic normocytic anemia Improved since previous discharge. Given medical history, this was likely secondary to anemia of chronic disease and alcoholism. # History of variceal bleeding # Portal hypertensive gastropathy The patient was noted to have a recent admission to ___ ___ service with evidence of variceal bleeding s/p banding and oozing from portal hypertensive gastropathy. There was no evidence of active variceal bleeding during the admission. The patient's propranolol was held, as he is s/p TIPS. # Coagulopathy Likely secondary to cirrhosis. INR was monitored and near baseline. # Malnutrition Albumin was slightly low on presentation (3.1), likely consistent with malnutrition. Nutrition was consulted and recommended >3 Ensure EnLives daily. # Alcohol use disorder The patient was seen by social work, who gave resources for alcohol relapse counseling. The patient was also treated with thiamine, folate, and MVI during the admission. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: [] Outpatient follow up with Dr. ___ and Dr. ___ PLEASE ___ PATIENT TO SCHEDULE APPOINTMENTS.

Brief Hospital Course: ___ PMH of T1DM (HbA1c 8.1 ___, followed by ___, HTN, HLD, Anemia (unknown cause) who presented to ED with persistent nausea and vomiting found to have DKA with ___ and ___. # Diabetic Ketoacidosis, type I DM Patient with history of recently poorly controlled type I DM (HgbA1c 10.5% ___ to be in diabetic ketoacidosis on admission likely secondary to viral illness given antecedent nausea/vomiting versus silent MI. He reported being unable to take insulin including lantus in the days prior to admission due to symptoms. After admission he was initiated on treatment with insulin gtt with rapid closure of anion gap. He was then transitioned to home lantus and humalog insulin sliding scale. ___ was consulted and followed along while inpatient. He had several BG lows early in admission so lantus was decreased. Subsequently after resumption of more normal diet he became hyperglycemic, which was treated by increasing dose of lantus to 4U BID and increasing HISS with good effect. BG remained stable thereafter and he was discharged on this regimen. He will have close follow up with ___ after discharge. # ___, type ___: Patient chest pain free without prior history of ACS but concerning for atypical presentation in the setting of DM on admission. For this reason trop/MB was checked and noted to rise to peak of 0.35 before downtrending. No ischemic changes on EKG. These findings were concerning for ___, likely demand ischemia, and cardiology was consulted. Patient received daily aspirin and high dose atorvastatin 80 mg. Echocardiogram was obtained that showed focal inferior wall motion abnormality. Heparin gtt was initiated. Pt was taken for cardiac catheterization on ___ that revealed multivessel disease with mid RCA 80%, LCx with mid occlusion and diffuse 20% LAD disease without focal lesion amenable to stenting. Per recommendations from Cardiology, treated with medical management. Heparin gtt stopped after cath. BP remained well-controlled and he was initiated on metoprolol 25mg daily for rate control. Will need repeat BP and HR checks in outpatient setting with uptitration of beta-blocker as tolerated. He was discharged with Cardiology follow-up. ___ recommends consideration of outpatient Cardiac rehab in the future. ___: Cr elevated at 1.6 on admission (from baseline 0.9) with BUN/Cr ratio > 20 suggestive of pre-renal etiology. Cr downtrend with IVF to 0.7 prior to discharge. ACE held initially due to ___ and ___ to allow BP room for metoprolol for rate control. Risks/benefits of ACE-inhibitor will need to be reassessed in the outpatient setting. #Nausea/vomiting: Patient presented with nausea/vomiting. Most likely secondary to DKA, although possible that viral infection such as gastroenteritis precipitated DKA. LFTs and lipase were all within normal limits. Treated with zofran. Symptoms resolved shortly after presentation and correction of BG. # Orthostatic hypotension: Pt found to be orthostatic by vital signs after working with ___, pt remained asymptomatic. Likely contribution from hypovolemia initially given excess urine output in the setting of hyperglycemia. Remained orthostatic despite rehydration with several liters of IVF. Given long history of type 1 DM most likely component of autonomic dysfunction as well. Remained stable and asymptomatic prior to discharge. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== -Discharged on insulin regimen of glargine 4U BID and humalog sliding scale at increased doses. Will need close BG follow-up as an outpt. -As part of medication optimization after ___ pt was started on metoprolol succinate at 25mg. He will need recheck of BP and HR as an outpatient with uptitration of beta blocker as tolerated. -Transitioned to high dose statin with atorvastatin to replace simvastatin. -Lisinopril was held on discharge to allow blood pressure room for metoprolol.

You were treated with insulin and your blood sugars improved. You continued having some high blood sugars to the team from ___ helped to adjust your insulin regimen before you went home. It is very important in the future that you contact your doctor when your blood sugar is persistently >300 or <60 or when you are ill and unable to take your insulin. You were also found to have evidence of decreased blood flow to your heart based on lab testing and an ultrasound of your heart. A cardiac catheterization was performed that showed blockages in several blood vessels that supply your heart. The Cardiology team felt that the best treatment for you at this time would be medications so they did not place any stents. You were started on two new medications called atorvastatin (to replace simvastatin) to lower your cholesterol and metoprolol to help with your heart rate. You will have a follow up appointment with Cardiology after discharge. It was a pleasure being involved in your care. Your ___ Team Followup Instructions: ___

ACUTE ISSUES --------------- #Neutropenic Fever: #LLL consolidation c/f PNA: #Hypoxia: #Pleural Effusions: On admission, patient was noted for complaint of L sided pleuritic chest pain, dry cough, and consolidation on CTA. Neutropenic fever source most c/f PNA. No PE or aortic abnormality. His pleuritic chest pain resolved. Initiated vancomycin ___ (D1: ___, added posaconazole for fungal coverage (D1: ___ but discontinued posaconazole ___ as was no longer neutrapenic and negative fungal markers. Albeit w/ symptomatic improvement and aggressive diuresis, he remained hypoxic (requiring ~ ___ of supplemental 02), prompting pulmonary consultation on ___. Repeat imaging with CT chest ___ showed radiographic progression of LLL consolidation despite antibacterial (since admission) and fungal therapy (5D prior to repeat imaging). Pulmonary thinks his lung findings are likely fungal in etiology given nodular opacity vs. likely some component of aspiration though would not expect to see such progression on CT with antibiotics. Given this, bronchoscopy with BAL was performed on ___ for further evaluation. Additionally, patient was noted to have parapneumonic effusions on CT; therefore, IP was consulted per pulmonology recommendations and placed a Left CT, sent fluid for pleural analysis on ___. Patient drained ~450ml and tube was removed on ___ per IP. In the context of neutropenia resolution, low suspicion for aspiration pneumonia and prolonged anti-bacterial therapy, changes were made to his regimen as below. He has been requiring 02 supplementation overnight while asleep but on RA during the day. Recent CXR ___ did not show worsening PTX or re-accumulation of pleural effusion -Cefepime(D1: ___ Vancomycin ___ restarted Posaconazole ___ post BAL but d/c per ID recs on ___ -Flagyl (D1: ___ was added ___ per pulmonary recs due to aspiration PNA concern; however, patient developed significant GI effects and given low aspiration PNA suspicion, medication was discontinued on ___. -Repeat fungal markers ___ negative -Barium swallow evaluation ___ did not show clear evidence of aspiration -Appreciate PULM recs: regarding hypoxia at night, thinks likely due to atelectasis or ? sleep apnea. scheduled sleep study outpatient ___ along with PFTs. He will be d/c with 02 supplementation which can be weaned off outpatient with improvement. Needs repeat CT chest in 4 weeks, requested ___ before ___ appointment -IP signed off -Consulted ID ___: guidance on course of antifungal therapy; thinks no indication for antibacterial or antifungal therapy given substantial improvement since admission therefore off all empiric ABX at discharge #Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction: #Left Sided Chest Pain and DOE: #Hypoxia #Coronary artery disease, triple vessel disease: Patient complained of new intermittent left sided chest pain on ___ which differed from his initial presentation on this admission (see below). EKG notable for sinus tachycardia at 100 BPM. LAD. Widened QRS in RBBB pattern (not new). QTc calculated at 407. Cardiac enzymes showing flat CK-MB and normal trops. Of note, he had a type II NSTEMI attributed to severe anemia during his initial AML diagnosis. CXR ___ imaging suggested pulmonary congestion as well as small pleural effusions. Weight was up ~7lbs from admission and patient was noted to be hypoxic requiring ___ of supplemental 02. His BNP was also elevated. Given this, we were concerned about volume overload likely related to frequent transfusions which likely exacerbated known HFrEF. Patient was actively diuresed throughout admission -Received 40mg IV Lasix ___ and below baseline weight (118lb from 123lb baseline) so held off since ___. He remains intermittently hypoxic as above but suspect less likely from volume overload. ___ between MD ___ patient agree to home O2" Pt has CHF and is in a chronic and stable state, not experiencing acute illness/exacerbation. Alternative treatments have been tried and failed in improving hypoxia (weaning off O2, drainage of pleural effusion, bronchoscopy with no infectious source found) Pt requires long term home and portable oxygen therapy to improve hypoxia related symptoms. #AML (___): #Pancytopenia in s/o MIDAC: He is s/p 7+3 and 2C MIDAC consolidation and currently D+32 presenting with neutropenic fever.

He was hemodynamically stable upon arrival and complained of left sided pain. A chest x-ray was performed, which showed several left rib fractures and associated chest wall hematomas, as well as a small pleural effusion. Chest CT revealed multiple left sided rib fractures, small L hemopneumothorax, pulmonary contusions bilaterally, LLL collapse and a 4mm LUL pulmonary nodule. He remained stable from a respiratory standpoint, and was placed on 4L nasal cannula. Over the next several days, his pain was well-controlled with IV and eventually oral pain medication. He continued to tolerate a regular diet. His oxygen requirement was weaned after better pain control was obtained, and he was given nebulizers to help with coughing and wheezing. On HD #2, a repeat CXR showed interval resolution of the LLL collapse, and a small persistent pneumothorax. On HD #3, he was able to maintain his saturations while walking and without oxygen. His CXR was improved, and he was dicharged home with oral pain medication. He will follow-up in ___ clinic in 2 weeks, and was also instructed to follow-up with a repeat CT scan in 6 months for evaluation of his incidentally found lung nodule. Discharge Medications: 1.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, You presented to ___ on ___ after a fall. You had a CT scan of your chest which showed you to have multiple left sided rib fractures and a small left lung hemothorax (bleeding from the impact to the lung). You were admitted to the Trauma/Acute Care Surgery team for further medical managment. Your injuries were managed conservatively. You practiced with the incentive spirometer and your lung function improved. You have ambulated and your pain is controlled with oral pain medication. You are now medically cleared to be discharged to home to continue your recovery. Please note the following discharge instructions: * Your injury caused left ___ rib fractures which can cause severe pain and subsequently cause you to take shallow breaths because of the pain. * You should take your pain medication 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. * Narcotic pain medication can cause constipation therefore you should take a stool softener twice daily and increase your fluid and fiber intake if possible. * Do NOT smoke * If your doctor allows, non-steroidal ___ drugs are very effective in controlling pain ( ie, Ibuprofen, Motrin, Advil, Aleve, Naprosyn) but they have their own set of side effects so make sure your doctor approves. * Return to the Emergency Room right away for any acute shortness of breath, increased pain or crackling sensation around your ribs (crepitus).

Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, You were hospitalized due to symptoms of acute left eye visual disturbance 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: History of left carotid artery occlusion s/p stent placement Hyperlipidemia Please see your medication list for changes. Please take your other medications as prescribed. Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician as listed below. If you experience any of the symptoms below, please seek emergency medical attention by calling Emergency Medical Services (dialing 911). In particular, since stroke can recur, please pay attention to the sudden onset and persistence of these symptoms: - Sudden partial or complete loss of vision - Sudden loss of the ability to speak words from your mouth - Sudden loss of the ability to understand others speaking to you - Sudden weakness of one side of the body - Sudden drooping of one side of the face - Sudden loss of sensation of one side of the body Sincerely, Your ___ Neurology Team Followup Instructions: ___

Pseudocirrhosis with ascites, incompletely evaluated on current study. 5. Airways appear patent throughout. CT Neck w/ Contrast ___ 1. Nonspecific thickening of the aryepiglottic folds and mild effacement of the piriform sinuses may suggest nonspecific supraglottic inflammation. ___ evidence of significant airway narrowing, subglottic airway inflammation, or epiglottitis. 2. Findings suggestive of right-sided vocal cord paralysis. 3. 1.1 cm rounded enhancing focus in the right cerebellar hemisphere, potentially a metastasis, for which nonemergent brain MRI is recommended. 4. Cervical spine metastases, similar to the prior PET-CT. 5. Patulous proximal esophagus which could suggest esophageal dysmotility. RUQ Ultrasound ___ 1. Diffuse and markedly heterogeneous liver, as seen on prior MRI liver. MRI is better for detection of metastases. 2. Patent portal vasculature. 3. Splenomegaly, as on prior. MRI Head w/ and w/o Contrast ___ Impression: 3 cerebellar metastatic lesions the largest in the superior aspect of the right cerebellar hemisphere measuring 9 x 11 x 13 mm. Multiple calvarial metastatic lesions. Bilateral globus pallidus T1 hyperintensity is nonspecific, but is most commonly seen in hepatic failure, hyperalimentation and prolonged parenteral nutrition. MRI C-Spine w/ and w/o Contrast ___ Impression: Extensive cervical, upper thoracic spine as well as rib metastatic disease. There is lytic destruction of the right aspect of the C3 vertebral body as well as the right pedicle and anterior aspect of the right transverse process as seen on prior CT neck done ___. Preserved right vertebral artery flow void. There is ___ compromise of the cervical cord in the spinal canal. Neural foraminal narrowing as described above. 3 posterior fossa metastatic cerebellar lesions were better visualized on prior MR brain done ___. Reference is made to that report. EGD ___ Esophagus: 4 cords of grade III varices were seen in the mid and distal esophagus with red whale sign. The varices were not bleeding. Stomach: Diffuse congestion, petechiae, and musoaic pattern of the mucosa with ___ bleeding noted in the stomach fundus and stomach body. These findings are compatible with portal hypertensive gastrophaty. Duodenum: Normal mucosa was noted in the whole examined duodenum. EGD ___: 5 cords of grade IV varices banded, diffuse congestion in stomach compatible with portal hypertensive gastropathy MRI Brachial Plexus w/ and w/o Contrast ___ 1. ___ mass identified along the course of the right or left brachial plexus. 2. Incompletely characterized hepatic lesions and osseous metastatic disease. Notable metastatic lesion in the C3 vertebral body involves the right neuroforamen, better characterized on cervical spine MRI, dated ___. 3. Small volume ascites. CXR ___ Impression: Heart size and mediastinum are unremarkable. Port-A-Cath catheter tip is in the proximal right atrium. Lungs are overall clear. The patient is after right most likely breast surgery. Abnormally looking right posterior seventh rib is re-demonstrated. It is reflecting the known focus of metastatic disease. ___ interval progression in pulmonary consolidations or development of pleural effusion is noted. ___ pulmonary edema is seen. Video Swallow ___ Impression: There was shallow penetration of cracker and pudding mixed with residue just before the swallow ___ a swallow delay and delayed laryngeal vestibule closure. Penetration cleared before the height of the swallow. There was trace deeper penetration of thin and nectar thick and thin liquids just before the swallow ___ delayed laryngeal vestibule closure which cleared at the height of the swallow. Toward the end of the study, there was trace penetration after the swallow during subsequent swallows due to residue from pyriform sinuses falling into the airway. Penetration appeared to consistently clear at the height of the swallow except possibly on one occasion with thin liquids she may have had some trace aspiration. Unable to fully rule in or out aspiration given presence of surgical clips. She had a consistent throat clear response to deep penetration. She had one cough response when using a thin liquid rinse after the cracker, but unfortunately the patient was not in the view of the camera so unable to observe in the patient aspirated or not. Brief Hospital Course: ___ PMH of Metastatic Breast Cancer (s/p mastectomy, XRT, and multiple lines of therapy with progressive disease and metastatic to mediastinal/supraclavicular nodes and bone currently on capecitabine/trastuzumab) who presented with one week of dysphagia and stridor in clinic with hospitalization complicated by cystitis, healthcare associated pneumonia vs aspiration pneumonitis, now s/p EGD with banding, who was ultimately discharged home on hospice with outpatient oncology followup #Fevers #Aspiration pneumonia vs aspiration pneumonitis vs HCAP PNA Developed fever to 101.3 on ___ and new opacity on CXR concerning for pneumonia. Given risk of resistant organisms she was started on broad spectrum Abx. However, given subsequent Xray which favors atelectasis it is possible that fever reflected aspiration pneumonitis and not pneumonia. While aspiration pneumonitis is very plausible given stable respiratory status and lack of persistent fevers, or large infiltrate on CXR, she is functionally immunosuppressed ___ malignancy so was treted for HCAP to be cautious. She is s/p switch from Vanc/Ceftaz to high dose levofloxacin on ___, which she will continue until ___ for 8 day course # Stridor/Dysphagia/aspiration: CT neck without significant airway narrowing but did show findings suggestive of right-sided vocal cord paralysis. Given history of cough after eating significant concern for aspiration. Concern for nerve involvement as cause of symptoms. Likely related to cervical metastatic disease. ENT consulted, performed bedside scope notable for bilateral VC hypomobility (right less mobile than left) but ___ glottic gap seen and patent airway. Recommend follow-up in ___ clinic ___ weeks after discharge. Speech and Swallow consulted, bedside exam with signs/symptoms of aspiration and recommended NPO as diet. Video swallow showed all diets with risk for aspiration. Decision made for patient to continue full liquid diet with acceptance of risk of aspiration as even if she was NPO she would aspirate her secretions with oropharyngeal bacteria so risk of PNA would be unchanged. Also is not a candidate for NGT or PEG as has esophageal varices and portal gastropathy so would be high risk for bleeding event with either implement. Dr ___ that only after subsequent EGD's if varices had completely resolved would she be a candidate for NGT (which would take weeks to months). Given significant coughing/regurgitation with meals, patient was discharged with suction to help clear food that doesn't go down properly. She was discharged with hospice who plans to do every other day fluid boluses to maintain her hydration status. She was instructed to monitor for abdominal distension (ascites), difficulty breathing or leg edema. If any occur, she was instructed to discuss discontinuing fluids. # Right Upper Extremity/Shoulder Pain and Weakness: Exam notable for right arm weakness with muscle wasting. She had a large lytic lesion involving the right aspect of the C3 likely causing cervical root compression. Radiation Oncology consulted, patient has since been started on XRT to cervical spine and will continue in ___ as an outpatient for a total of 10 doses #Acute uncomplicated cystitis: Developed symptoms the early AM of ___ with UA positive for UTI, urine culture which grew pan sensitive EColi. Was treated with antibiotics as above. #Severe Protein-Calorie Malnutrition: Patient with weight loss, decreased PO intake ___ dysphagia, and muscle wasting on exam. As above, nutrition limited in that was not candidate for feeding implement, and had limited PO intake in light of aspiration/coughing. Dr ___ that unless she improves her nutritional status further chemotherapy would not be offered. Patient plans to attempt to improve her nutritional status with PO intake, but is understanding that it may not succeed and was discharged with hospice services. # Brain Metastases: Brain MRI showed 3 cerebellar lesions. ___ localizing cerebellar findings on neuro exam. Unlikely to explain presenting symptoms. Should patient's clinical status improve, or become a chemo candidate, then she may need f/u in brain tumor clinic # Metastatic Breast Cancer: Metastatic to bone and liver as well as brain now. Previously on capecitabine and trastuzumab. Dr ___ that unless she improves her nutritional status further chemotherapy would not be offered. Patient plans to attempt to improve her nutritional status with PO intake, but is understanding that it may not succeed and was discharged with hospice services. # Pseudocirrhosis: # Ascites: # Esophageal Varices: # Transaminitis: EGD on ___ with 4 cords of grade III esophageal varices with red whale sign. ___ active bleeding. Patient is s/p repeat EGD with banding on ___ which she tolerated well. She was discharged on Carafate 2gm BID for 2 weeks, omeprazole BID x 6 weeks, and nadolol indefinitely with plan to have repeat EGD in 1 month. Transaminitis/Hyperbilirubinemia stable during hospital course, RUQUS without acute finding. # Anemia/Thrombocytopenia: Chronic and stable. Likely from antineoplastic therapy, inflammatory blockade, and osseous metastatic disease. TSH, B12, and folate wnl. Haptoglobin < 10 which may represent some degree of microangiopathy from malignancy. During remainder of hospital course, both indices remained stable. CBC can be trended in ___ clinic to ensure Hgb/plt remain stable. Transitional Issues 1. Patient with right arm/shoulder pain and weakness. Patient to complete course of radiation to cervical spine and nerve roots. Discharged with liquid morphine and lidocaine patches for pain control. 2. She was discharged with hospice who plans to do every other day fluid boluses to maintain her hydration status. She was instructed to monitor for abdominal distension (ascites), difficulty breathing or leg edema. If any occur, she was instructed to discuss discontinuing fluids. 3. Dr ___ that unless she improves her nutritional status further chemotherapy would not be offered. Patient plans to attempt to improve her nutritional status with PO intake, but is understanding that it may not succeed and was discharged with hospice services. 4. Should patient's clinical status improve, or become a chemo candidate, then she may need f/u in brain tumor clinic 5. For varices, pt was discharged on Carafate 2gm BID for 2 weeks, omeprazole BID x 6 weeks, and nadolol indefinitely with plan to have repeat EGD in 1 month. 6.

It should be discontinued if significant ascites, leg edema, or SOB Discharge Disposition: Home With Service Facility: ___ Discharge Diagnosis: Primary Diagnosis: - Dysphagia/Aspiration - HCAP vs aspiration pneumonitis - Right Upper Extremity/Shoulder Pain and Weakness - Metastatic Breast Cancer - Brain Metastases - Severe Protein-Calorie Malnutrition - Pseudocirrhosis - Ascites - Esophageal Varices s/p banding - Anemia - Thrombocytopenia - Cystitis Discharge Condition: Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you at the ___ ___. You were admitted to the hospital for difficulty swallowing and right arm and shoulder pain with weakness. Your trouble swallowing is likely due nerve dysfunction (vagus nerve) which controls your voice, swallowing, and GI function. You were seen by the Speech Therapy team. You had a video swallow which showed that you were at risk for aspiration for all types of diets. Unfortunately, there is ___ other possible way for us to improve your nutrition as the dilated blood vessels in your esophagus and stomach prevent you from getting a nasogastric or gastric feeding tube. Instead, you will have to try to improve your nutritional status by eating. As our speech and swallow team suggested, you can try to alternate between liquids and solids in order to help swallow. You were discharged with suction to help you clear your throat when you feel the food gets stuck or causes coughing. Our speech and swallow team also recommended: -Performing excellent oral care (toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash) multiple times per day, particularly before meals, to minimize risk of pna. -Coughing if you feel you need to cough, and coughing if you feel that something went down the wrong way. - Take medications crushed in applesauce followed by sips of liquid or give in liquid form. - Perform oral care prior to meals. - Sit fully upright to eat/drink and remain sitting upright for 1 hour after finishing the meal. - Alternate bites/sips. - Go slow, give yourself time to swallow multiple times. - Sleep at an incline to reduce aspiration and reflux. Your outpatient hospice team will provide you with fluids every other day in order to prevent you from being dehydrated. If you find that the fluids are causing you to have abdominal bloating or are causing swollen legs or difficulty breathing you should have them given less frequently or discontinued. If you find that despite the fluids you are very thirsty, with dry mouth, you should hold your aldactone and call Dr ___ office to inform them of your clinical change. For your pneumonia, you were treated with a course of antibiotics which ends in 2 days. Your right arm pain and weakness is also likely due to nerve impingement of the nerves exiting the spinal cord. You had a cervical spine MRI. You were seen by Radiation Oncology and started your radiation treatments. You will finish the rest of your treatments at ___. You were also started on pain medications. We are hopeful that the radiation will help with both your swallowing as well as the pain and weakness. You had an endoscopy (EGD) during your stay that showed large esophageal varices. You were restarted on nadolol and had banding to help resolve the varices. You will need to continue sucralfate for 2 weeks and omeprazole for 6 weeks. You will need to schedule a repeat endoscopy with Dr ___ in 1 month to reassess varices. You also had a brain MRI which showed some lesions in your cerebellum. These are small and likely not causing any symptoms. You should follow-up in clinic for monitoring of these. Lastly, you developed a urinary tract infection while you were here. You were treated with antibiotics which successfully treated it. It was a pleasure meeting you, I wish you and your family the best! Followup Instructions: ___

Complex cystic and solid mass arising from the pelvis extending into the mid abdomen measuring up to 20.6 cm. This mass is concerning for a primary GYN malignancy and biopsy is advised. 2. Ill-defined hypoattenuating pancreatic head lesion, enlarged since ___ and incompletely characterized. MRCP is recommended for further evaluation. 3. New bilateral hydronephrosis, right greater than left, secondary to extrinsic compression of the ureters by the pelvic mass. Surgical or interventional decompression should be considered. 4. Indeterminate left adrenal gland lesion, not fully characterized but stable in morphology since ___. Further evaluation via MRI may be performed. ___ CXR: Prominent apical scarring and emphysema. No focal consolidation. In light of the abdominal findings, a chest CT is recommended for staging purposes. ___ Chest CT: - No evidence of pulmonary metastases. - Apical predominant branching parenchymal calcifications may be seen in the setting of disseminated pulmonary calcification, which is associated with a number of secondary diagnoses, including chronic renal failure and hyperparathyroidism. - Mild to moderate apical predominant centrilobular emphysema. ___ pelvic US Incompletely imaged large predominantly cystic mass with nodular solid components in the pelvis may represent a solitary mass or separate bilateral masses larger on the right than the left. The imaging appearance is most consistent with an ovarian malignancy and is much less likely to represent Krukenberg tumor. ___ lower extremity doppler No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the bilateral lower extremity veins. ___ 07:10AM BLOOD CEA-2.2 CA125-54* ___ 07:10AM BLOOD WBC-5.1 RBC-4.18* Hgb-12.5 Hct-38.1 MCV-91 MCH-30.0 MCHC-32.9 RDW-16.0* Plt ___ ___ 07:15AM BLOOD WBC-6.5 RBC-4.00* Hgb-11.8* Hct-36.2 MCV-90 MCH-29.4 MCHC-32.5 RDW-15.8* Plt ___ ___ 08:00PM BLOOD WBC-9.8 RBC-3.36* Hgb-9.9* Hct-31.0* MCV-92 MCH-29.5 MCHC-32.0 RDW-15.9* Plt ___ ___ 07:10AM BLOOD WBC-12.0* RBC-3.26* Hgb-9.5* Hct-29.8* MCV-92 MCH-29.1 MCHC-31.9 RDW-15.2 Plt ___ ___ 06:47AM BLOOD WBC-10.8 RBC-3.24* Hgb-9.5* Hct-30.1* MCV-93 MCH-29.4 MCHC-31.7 RDW-15.5 Plt ___ ___ 06:50AM BLOOD WBC-6.2 RBC-3.23* Hgb-9.4* Hct-29.3* MCV-91 MCH-29.2 MCHC-32.1 RDW-15.5 Plt ___ ___ 06:40AM BLOOD WBC-10.4# RBC-2.94* Hgb-8.6* Hct-26.4* MCV-90 MCH-29.4 MCHC-32.8 RDW-15.9* Plt ___ ___ 07:55AM BLOOD WBC-8.2 RBC-3.21* Hgb-9.2* Hct-28.7* MCV-90 MCH-28.7 MCHC-32.0 RDW-16.0* Plt ___ ___ 06:23AM BLOOD WBC-7.5 RBC-3.37* Hgb-9.7* Hct-30.8* MCV-91 MCH-28.6 MCHC-31.4 RDW-15.9* Plt ___ ___ 07:10AM BLOOD Neuts-53.8 ___ Monos-9.0 Eos-2.6 Baso-0.3 ___ 07:10AM BLOOD Neuts-85* Bands-2 Lymphs-10* Monos-3 Eos-0 Baso-0 ___ Myelos-0 ___ 07:00AM BLOOD Neuts-69.9 ___ Monos-9.5 Eos-1.9 Baso-0.3 ___ 06:50AM BLOOD Neuts-67.0 ___ Monos-8.0 Eos-3.5 Baso-0.2 ___ 06:40AM BLOOD Neuts-76.3* Lymphs-15.3* Monos-5.7 Eos-2.5 Baso-0.2 ___ 06:45AM BLOOD Neuts-67.0 ___ Monos-8.2 Eos-3.6 Baso-0.2 ___ 06:23AM BLOOD Neuts-58.8 ___ Monos-9.5 Eos-3.2 Baso-0.4 ___ 07:10AM BLOOD Hypochr-1+ Anisocy-NORMAL Poiklo-NORMAL Macrocy-NORMAL Microcy-NORMAL Polychr-NORMAL ___ 07:10AM BLOOD ___ PTT-28.7 ___ ___ 07:30AM BLOOD ___ ___ 07:10AM BLOOD Glucose-91 UreaN-9 Creat-1.3* Na-135 K-4.7 Cl-100 HCO3-25 AnGap-15 ___ 07:15AM BLOOD Glucose-74 UreaN-11 Creat-1.5* Na-131* K-4.4 Cl-98 HCO3-24 AnGap-13 ___ 08:00PM BLOOD Glucose-103* UreaN-12 Creat-1.3* Na-134 K-4.5 Cl-100 HCO3-22 AnGap-17 ___ 07:10AM BLOOD Glucose-82 UreaN-11 Creat-1.2* Na-136 K-5.2* Cl-101 HCO3-26 AnGap-14 ___ 07:00AM BLOOD Glucose-101* UreaN-8 Creat-1.0 Na-132* K-4.1 Cl-97 HCO3-30 AnGap-9 ___ 06:40AM BLOOD Glucose-76 UreaN-11 Creat-1.1 Na-126* K-4.3 Cl-90* HCO3-28 AnGap-12 ___ 03:20PM BLOOD Glucose-96 UreaN-10 Creat-1.3* Na-138 K-3.9 Cl-100 HCO3-33* AnGap-9 ___ 07:55AM BLOOD Glucose-93 UreaN-8 Creat-1.2* Na-138 K-3.8 Cl-101 HCO3-33* AnGap-8 ___ 06:23AM BLOOD Glucose-71 UreaN-9 Creat-1.3* Na-137 K-4.2 Cl-99 HCO3-34* AnGap-8 ___ 07:10AM BLOOD ALT-17 AST-33 AlkPhos-119* TotBili-0.3 ___ 07:30AM BLOOD ALT-12 AST-19 AlkPhos-109* TotBili-0.3 ___ 07:05AM BLOOD ALT-12 AST-20 AlkPhos-117* TotBili-0.2 ___ 03:30PM BLOOD ALT-12 AST-23 ___ 07:10AM BLOOD Lipase-16 ___ 12:50AM BLOOD proBNP-540* ___ 07:30AM BLOOD Calcium-8.7 Phos-4.3 Mg-1.6 ___ 06:47AM BLOOD Calcium-8.4 Phos-3.3 Mg-1.8 ___ 06:50AM BLOOD Calcium-8.2* Phos-2.6* Mg-1.8 ___ 01:30AM BLOOD Calcium-7.8* Phos-3.6 Mg-1.6 ___ 03:30PM BLOOD Calcium-8.2* Phos-2.6* Mg-1.6 ___ 06:40AM BLOOD TSH-2.7 ___ 06:40AM BLOOD T4-4.5* ___ 06:40AM BLOOD Cortsol-15.3 Brief Hospital Course: Ms ___ is a ___ G2P2 postmenopausal with history of COPD, PVD and fibromyalgia who presented to the ED for abdominal pain found to have large abdominal mass, likely arising for adnexa, also with likely pancreatic mass. She was initially admitted to the medicine service and gynecologic oncology was consulted for her adnexal mass, which was likely malignant with undetermined primary, possible ovarian vs pancreatic. Further workup showed elevated CA-125 and normal CEA suggesting ovarian primary. Pelvic US ___ showed large predominantly cystic mass with nodular solid components in the pelvis consistant with ovarian malignancy. Patient was also found to have acute renal failure with Cr of 1.3 from unknown baseline, likely secondary to pelvic mass compression given bilateral hydronephrosis found on CT. Given the symptomatic pelvic mass of likely ovarian malignancy and hydronephrosis, plan was made to proceed with surgical treatment by the gynecologic oncology team. General surgery was consulted regarding the pancreatic lesion with decision to defer further workup of the pancreatic lesion until after her more urgent pelvic mass is addressed. On ___, Ms. ___ was admitted to the gynecology oncology service after undergoing exploratory laparotomy, lysis of adhesions, total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and partial omentectomy for her ovarian mass. Please see the operative report for full details. Her post-operative course is detailed as follows. Immediately postoperatively, her pain was controlled with a local TAP block, IV acetaminophen and PCA hydromorphone. Diazepam and lidocaine patch were subsequently added. Her diet was advanced without difficulty. There was difficulty in transitioning her to oral pain medications given history of chronic narcotic use for fibromyalgia and back pain. She was ultimately transitioned to oral percocet, gabapentin and diazepam with adequate pain control. # Acute renal failure - She was admitted with Cr of 1.3 from unknown baseline, with evidence of bilateral hydronephrosis based on CT related to large pelvic mass. - She was producing adequate urine and foley was removed on post-operative day #3. However, she did not void and the Foley was replaced for closer urine output monitoring. Her urine output improved with IV fluids and the foley was removed on post operative day 5. She was able to void spontaneously. Her Cr also improved from 1.5 to 1.0 by post operative day 4. However, her Cr subsequently gradually increased to 1.3 in the setting of Lasix diuresis for her hypervolemic hyponatremia, which would likely improve once Lasix is no longer needed. # hypervolemic hyponatremia - On postoperative day 4, she was noted to be asymptomatically hyponatremic to 127 and was hypervolemic with ___ edema and JVD. Medicine was consulted and she was fluid restricted and diuresed with IV Lasix. Her electrolytes were repleted accordingly. She was monitored with BID electrolyte labs and her hyponatremia resolved by post operative day 6. # wound seroma - On post operative day 7, serous wound drainage was noted and her wound was probed and opened. Her fascia was intact and there was no evidence of infection. Her wound was packed with wet to dry dressing and changed BID. Wound vacuum was ordered for visiting nursing service to place once she is discharged home. # Anxiety/depression - She was recently started on citalopram for depression by her PCP and her medication was restarted once the team was informed of the medication upon communication with the PCP. She was seen by social work during her stay and psychiatry. Psychiatry recommended continuing her citalopram dosing while inpatient with possible increase in dosage in the outpatient setting. She will follow-up with her PCP. # Pancreatic lesion - planned for further workup after ovarian malignancy is addressed with possible MRI, ERCP. # COPD: Chronic, stable, not O2 dependent at home. She was continued on Spirova, Advair, as symbicort is non-formulary, and albuterol nebs prn with control of her COPD. # Peripheral Vascular Disease: Chronic, stable. Not on home meds. She had increased bilateral ___ edema noted after her surgery, likely secondary to her hypervolemia that improved with Lasix diuresis. She underwent bilateral lower extremity dopplers on ___ which were negative for DVTs. # physical therapy: She was evaluated by physical therapy with home physical therapy planned. # PPX: Heparin SC, Pneumoboots, Famotidine, incentive spirometry, ambulation By post-operative day ___, she was tolerating a regular diet, voiding spontaneously, ambulating with assistance, and pain was controlled with oral medications. She was then discharged home with services in stable condition with outpatient follow-up scheduled. Medications on Admission: The Preadmission Medication list is accurate and complete. 1.

The procedure was aborted due to the risk of aspiration # Sigmoidoscopy (___): Three lymph nodes were noted in ___ region 20-25 cm form the anus. These measured between 0.5 and 1 cm in maximum diameter. The lymph nodes were hypoechoic and homogenous in echotexture. The borders were well-defined. No central intra-nodal vessels were seen. This was staged N 1 by EUS criteria. The sigmoidal mucosa at the level of 20 cm seems to be thickened with high suspicion of tumor invasion into the sigmoid wall Due to poor preparation Bx were not performed. # Chest CT (___): 3 sub cm soft tissue lung nodules, new since ___ could be metastases. Progressive ossification, but no overall growth of nonaggressive, midline subdiaphragmatic lesion in the anterior abdominal fat. Could be a benign teratoma or ossifying hematoma. If the patient is being evaluated for possible metastatic ovarian carcinoma, the lesion should be evaluated by PET-CT scan.

The specimen was sent to pathology. Impression: Normal mucosa was noted up to the sigmoid colon. A focused EUS examination was performed from 20 to 25 cm with the forward viewing echoendoscope. A 15 mm hypoechoic mass adjacent to the colon wall with some adjacent lymphadenopathy was noted. FNB was performed with a 22 gauge Shark Core needle. A total of 3 passes were made into the mass. The specimen was sent to pathology. Brief Hospital Course: ___ yo F with complex PMH, including COPD, distant mesenteric ischemia s/p SBR, chronic pain on opioids, Stage IIB ovarian serous adenocarcinoma, s/p TAH-BSO with omentectomy ___, known mucinous cyst of pancreas, who presents with persistent abdominal pain of 3 weeks. # Abdominal pain, lower quadrant, persistent # Mucinous pancreatic cyst, with high CEA # h/o Stage IIB ovarian serous adenocarcinoma Ms. ___ was admitted with worsening bil LQ abd pain over the past 3 weeks. The OSH CT scan was re-read by the ___ radiologist and was notable for sigmoid thickening concerning for metastatic implant of ovarian CA on outside wall. To corroborate this diagnosis, CA 125 was checked and noted to be elevated at 105 (previously 10's per outpt oncologist). To obtain a tissue biopsy, Ms. ___ underwent Sigmoidoscopy/EUS guided biopsy of the mass - the result of the biopsy is presently pending. Chest CT also revealed 3 sub cm soft tissue lung nodules (new since ___ which could represent metastases. There was also progressive ossification, but no overall growth of nonaggressive, midline subdiaphragmatic lesion in the anterior abdominal fat. This was felt to be a benign teratoma or ossifying hematoma but can be evaluated with a PET-CT scan as an outpt to evaluate for possible metastatic ovarian carcinoma. She was seen by Gyn Oncology - and it was felt that recurrence of the ovarian CA was likely. Surgery was not considered an option - and she was recommended to follow up with her oncologist for consideration of chemotherapy. The pain was attributed to this colonic infiltration and not pancreatic mass/cyst. Nevertheless, an EUS of the pancreas was also performed (simultaneous to the sigmoidoscopy) due to increase in size and concern for pancreatic malignancy. The Lower EUS showed a mass adjacent to the sigmoid colon concerning for ovarian CA recurrence. Biopsies results were pending at the time of discharge. No changes were made to the patients pain medications as increases in doses resulted in oversedation. # Chronic Lower Extremity Edema Long standing history. OSH ___ negative for DVT. TTE revealed Grade II-III diastolic dysfunction but no clear signs of RV failure. She was given compression stockings. She appeared euvolemic during this hospitalization. Patient was discharged a 2 gram Na restricted diet. # Thrombocytopenia, mild # Anemia, macrocytic: B12/folate, Fe panel unremarkable - on Fe supplementation - anemia and plt# both stable # COPD # OSA Unknown PFT's, still smoking, no home O2. No evidence of acute flare. Encourage tobacco cessation. On home CPAP. She was continued on home inhalers. She declined a nicotine patch. CPAP was continued. # Chronic Kidney Disease Stage III-IV: Cr at baseline. Cont to monitor. ___ benefit from ___ therapy, but would defer to outpt provider. # GERD with hiatal hernia: stable, continue home PPI regimen. # Urge incontinence / overactive bladder: stable, continue oxybutynin. # Depression: Has outpt therapist. Continued on home medications.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Ms. ___, It was a pleasure looking after you. As you know, you were transferred from ___ to ___ after imaging revealed a pancreatic cyst which may have increased in size. This imaging (CT scan) was reviewed by the ___ Radiologists and there was signs of colon thickening which suggested the possibility of ovarian cancer recurrence. For these reasons, you underwent an endoscopic procedures to both evaluate the pancreatic cyst and the colon. Biopsies were obtained and the results of these tests will be available likely next week. The results will be forwarded to Dr. ___ - who ___ determine what next steps should be taken for treatment. In addition, there was a couple of nodules on the CT scan of your chest. This will need further work-up as an outpatient. To further evaluate your abdominal/thigh pain, we obtained a MRI of the spine. This showed narrowing in the spine which may lead to compression of the nerves. However, your symptoms are more consistent with the mass/thickening in the colon rather than nerve compression. You will need to take your medications and discuss further pain management with your primary doctor. Please do not drive or operate heavy machinery while on these medications. Lastly you underwent an ultrasound of heart which shows that it does not relax normally. As a result, you are at risk for retaining fluid. As such, you should restrict your salt intake to 2 grams per day. Followup Instructions: ___

In the clinic, he was visibly SOB with ambulating from the waiting room to the exam room, and was found to have SpO2 ~80s%, tachycardia 120s, HTN, and was sent to the ___ ED where he was found to have vitals: 97.9 ___ 18 98%RA(lowest 91%). CXR showed chronic changes c/w ILD, but it was diffcult to exclude subtle superimposed process. CTA was neg for PE or aortic abnormality, but showed progression of ILD fibrosis and increased tract bronchiectasis. No malignancy or overt consolidation identified, though there was a sight opacification of the RML/RUL on imaging. His lactate was elevated at 4.7, he was given 1L IVF with improvement to 2.5, another 1L with improvement to 2.3, and his metformin was d/c'ed for hospitalization. Given high c/f ILD flair, pt was put on 500mg BID solumedrol overnight and restarted on ppx Bactrim. On arrival to the floor he denies dyspnea at rest.

No atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale is seen by 2D, color Doppler or saline contrast with maneuvers. The estimated right atrial pressure is ___ mmHg. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and regional/global systolic function are normal (LVEF >55%). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic root is mildly dilated at the sinus level. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve appears structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: No ASD or PFO seen. Normal global and regional biventricular systolic function. - ___ CTA: No evidence of pulmonary embolism or aortic abnormality. Extensive fibrotic lung changes involving both lungs has progressed from ___ with considerable tracts bronchiectasis also increased from the prior examination. - ___ CXR: Similar pattern of perihilar ground-glass opacity likely reflects known hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Difficult to exclude a subtle superimposed process. - ___ EKG: normal sinus rhythm PATHOLOGY: R LOBE WEDGE RESECTION BX x3 (___): A similar process appears to involve all three lung wedge resections, though to varying degrees. The dominant finding is that of single and cohesive clusters of pulmonary macrophages (many fine pigment laden) filling the alveolar spaces and small airways. There is also an associated mild to moderate uniform interstitial fibrosis, though without evidence of architectural distortion or honeycomb change (most severe in part 3). Multiple foci of squamous metaplasia and bronchiolar metaplasia are observed around the small airways, and patchy lymphocytic aggregates are present. Abundant carbon pigment deposition is present along areas of lymphatic drainage. The interstitial fibrosis is relatively uniform in character, and no fibroblastic foci are identified. There are no granulomas or areas of organizing pneumonia identified. Eosinophils are not present in any significant numbers. There is no evidence of a vasculitis or capillaritis. Polarizable silicates are scant. There is no evidence of an acute infectious process (also see associated microbiologic culture results, ___ ___ ___, and no malignancy is identified. In total, the findings are consistent with desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP) / respiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease (RB-ILD). There are no findings to suggest a hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Clinical and radiologic correlation is advised. This case was shown and discussed at ___ Pulmonary Medicine-Thoracic Imaging conference on ___ by Dr. ___ ___. Brief Hospital Course: # Hypoxia: Likely ILD progression. Pt w/ history f ILD ___ years, biopsy from ___ showing likely desquamative interstitial pneumonia (DIP) vs. respiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease (RB-ILD). Both pathologies usually resolve with smoking cessation though, and the pt endorses quitting Tob ___ years ago. Urine cotinine pending. Pt presented to follow up pulmonology and PCP ___ ___ with hypoxemia (91% on RA) and tachycardic to 136 that was responsive to IVF. TTE + bubble study (___) were neg for cardiac pathology or shunting. CXR was equivocal for pneumonia vs. atelectasis in addition to underlying ILD. CTA revealed no evidence of PE, but was consistent with progression of ILD. There was no overt evidence of pneumonia on sputum neg (___), and pt had baseline leukocytosis with Neutrophilic predominance, but is on chronic steroids and received a large pulse in the ED (___). Pulmonology was consulted. Elevated lactate (4.7) and slight worsening of cough with minor sputum production gives mild c/f PJP PNA i/s/o immunosuppression (on Azathioprine) and discontinuation of Bactrim (has not been taking for 3 months prior to presentation). BAL was performed ___ (viral Ag labs neg, other infectious labs pending). Without any positive infectious work up, clinical progression of sx and imaging was thought to be more representative of interval worsening of his underlying ILD, and pt was continued on home prednisone, azathioprine. Restarted on Bactrim prophylaxis. Pulmonology also started an extensive rheumatologic and infectious work up for the ___ to follow up with as an outpatient. On d/c RF, SS-A, SS-B, SCL-70, ___ Ab Neg. The ___ could also follow up with a swallow eval as outpatient as chronic aspiration may be contributing to his hypoxemia given history of choking while eating. The ___ was discharged on home oxygen after desaturating to SpO2 85% on room air with ambulation, however the pt did not feel significantly short of breath during hospitalization, denied chest pain, and denied worsening of his baseline cough. Hypoxemia is mild at rest with SpO2 >94% on 2L. Pt was seen by ___ Transplant team ___ and rejected from lung transplant list. F/u appointment with ___ Transplant team on ___, 10AM. # Leukocytosis: likely secondary to chronic prednisone use and large solumedrol pulse on ___ of 500mg x2, epecially given lack of fever or localizing infectious symptoms. # Steroid-induced hyperglycemia: on metformin 850mg at home, though ___. ISS during hospitalization. %Hgb A1C 5.7 in ___. %Hgb A1c now 8.9 (___). # Transient anemia: Normocytic. H/H 12.___.2. Etiology unknown but may be ACD. Labs were negative for hemolysis. Consider iron labs as outpatient. # Hypertensive urgency: BP in clinic yesterday 162/90, however in ED, markedly elevated to 188/129. No intervention given. BP downtrended to 141/108 prior to transfer to floor. On arrival to floor, BP 162/100. Labetalol 200 mg PO TID started. Placed on telemetery. BP controlled and normotensive at discharge. # elevated lactate: presented with lactate elevated to 4.7 on admission, which downtrended to 2.3 after IVF on discharge. No hypotension (rather, hypertensive urgency, as above).

Mental Status: Clear and coherent. Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, You were admitted to the hospital because you were not getting enough oxygen, your heat rate and blood pressure were elevated. We initially gave you some antibiotics to treat what we thought might be a lung infection, but we stopped these during your hospitalization since we had a low suspicion for this. Imaging of your lungs was performed and showed progression of your pre-existing lung disease, and no clear sign of a lung infection. We also took a sample of the mucous from deep in your lungs (bronchioalveolar lavage). We have been unable to isolate any kind of infection prior to your discharge, but there are some labs that are pending. We therefore thought your increased difficulty breathing was more likely due to worsening of your pre-existing lung disease. You were given steroids, azathioprine, as well as an antibiotic (Bactrim) to help prevent a fungal infection of your lungs. You should continue these medications when you leave the hospital. You will be seen by the ___ Transplant team for re-evaluation in ___. Followup Instructions: ___

Name: ___ Unit No: ___ Admission Date: ___ Discharge Date: ___ Date of Birth: ___ Sex: M Service: MEDICINE Allergies: lisinopril / vancomycin Attending: ___. Chief Complaint: Agitation Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure: None History of Present Illness: Mr ___ is a ___ year old man with a history of IDDM s/p L foot ulcer debridement who presented from ___ (___) ___ by ambulance after he had been noted to be agitated towards the stuff and other patients, and is now being admitted to the medicine floor for management of osteomyelitis. Most of the history was obtained from prior charts as the patient was too somnolent to give an adequate history on admission to the floor. Reportedly, the patient had been in his usual state of health at ___ when he got into an argument with the center staff. Per the patient, he asked the staff to turn down his neighbor's TV which was loud at 5 in the morning. After he became agitated towards the neighbor and other patients, he was brought in for for aggression. In the ED, his vitals were: T 98.4 HR 112 BP 92/62 RR 18 SpO2 100% on RA. His labs were notable for a WBC of 6.2 and H/H= 11.9/37.5, Platelets =235 and ESR= 47. Urine tox screen was negative and he was adamant about returning to ___. Psychiatry was consulted and they deemed that, while the patient did not meet section 12a criteria, he lacked capacity to manage his antibiotics and PICC line which he needs to treat his ongoing osteomyelitis. The patient however expressed to psychiatry that he would be willing to go back to ___ should a bed become available, upon which ___ ED Case management was involved. He received ___ haldol/diphenhydramine for agitation and psychiatry recommended continuation of all psych meds. Prior to transfer to the floor, ___ staff informed ___ ED Case management that a bed may become available on ___.

PROCEDURES: ========== none Brief Hospital Course: Patient will require rehab for less than 30 days. === Mr. ___ is a ___ year old man w/ history of IDDM c/b osteomyelitis s/p L foot ulcer debridement currently on ceftriaxone and flagyl, who presented with agitation and deemed to lack decision-making capacity by psychiatry, and susequently admitted for osteomyelitis antibiosis and now being discharged to rehabilitation. #AGITATION: Pt presented from rehab with severe agitation (verbal only, non-combative)towards staff and other pts regarding loud TV noise early in the AM in his neighbor's room. Per negative tox screen, agitation was unlikely drug-induced. Initially received ___ Haldol/diphenhydramine in the ED, with improvement in agitation. He did not receive any addition antii-agitation drugs during his course. Also, per psych recommendations, his Celexa for depression was continued. #OSTEOMYELITIS: The patient had recently undergone debridement of ___ and ___ metatarsal for osteomyelitis on ___ by Dr, ___ without any complications. He was admitted with a PICC line for which he was getting IV flagyl 500mg Q8H and 1gm Ceftriaxone Q24H. Following confirmation of correct PICC placement, we resumed his antibotics and he was also seen by wound care specialists who felt the skin graft was intact and recommended regular cgentle leaning with wound cleanser and dry patting. They also recommended adaptic - nonadherent dressing followed by dry gauze and ABD pad, secure with kerlix to be changed daily. At discharge, the falgyl was converted to PO administration at the same dose. ___: Patient p/w creatinine of 1.4 up from a baseline of ~1.1. Given return to baseline with 1L LR infusion, ___ was likely pre-renal i/s/o poor PO intake. #IDDM: Given that patient is an insulin-dependent diabetic, both his basal and prandial glucose regimens were continued. He takes 40U of glargine twice daily and is on a Humalog sliding scale for prandial dosing. His blood sugars were well-controlled during his course here. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES: ==================== 1) Pt has a history of Asperger's and paranoid/schizotypal personality which sometimes limits his way of interacting. The best way to discuss any issues with him is to limit time spent with patient and to focus on immediate needs, mostly of a practical nature during interactions. 2) Because of item 1 above, in general, try to communicate concrete and concise information about the treatment plan (eg how many days of abx, how long anticipated rehab stay) which will ultimately limit opportunities to create disagreements among staff. 3) For his osteomyelitis and foot ulcer, please clean wound GENTLY with wound cleanser then pat dry. Do not pull on graft or wipe aggressively with gauze and cover wound with adaptic - nonadherent dressing followed by dry gauze and ABD pad. Then secure with kerlix and change the dressing daily. 4) Infectious disease ___ clinic follow-up appointment is ___ at 9:00 AM with ___, MD ___ located in ___ Building (___ Basement. 5) For his antibiotics, he will need weekly labs checked while on ceftriaxone: CBC, BUN, creatinine, ALT, AST, Alk phos, total bilirubin, CRP, ESR. Please fax results to ___ Infectious Disease ___ clinic at ___. Patient will require ceftriaxone 1g Q24H IV and metronidazole 500mg PO Q8H for total antibiotic course of 6 weeks, final day of antibiotics ___. 6) Patient will follow up with podiatrist at ___, Dr. ___ on ___ at 1:00PM in the ___ ___) ___ Floor. 7) Patient will need to have an appointment set up to see his PCP ___ on discharge from rehab.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive. Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent. Discharge Instructions: Dear Mr. ___, It was a pleasure taking care of you while you were in the hospital. You were admitted to ___ on ___ for agitation after you had fallen into a misundertanding with the staff at ___ (___). Since you were quite agitated when you initially arrived, you were seen by our psychiatry team in the emergency room who recommended that we admit you to help you manage your antibiotics for the infection on your left foot (osteomyelitis). Our psychiatry team recommended medicine that helped calmed you down, and the agitation had resolved by the time we met you on the floor. Since we primarly admitted you to manage your antibiotics, the first thing we did was confirm with the aid of a chest X-ray that your PICC line (the IV in your arm) was correctly placed. After that we continued to give you the antibiotics you had been taking at ___ (ceftriaxone and Flagyl). The last day of your antibiotics is ___ and as we discussed, it is important to finish taking all your antibiotics and follow-up with both our infectious diseases specialists and yuour podiatrist, Dr. ___ as indicated below. Doping so will make sure that your infection does not worsen. During your time here, you were concerned about weight-bearing so we reached out to Dr. ___ expressed that weight-bearing on the heel would be OK until he sees you on the ___. You should plan to follow-up with him as highlighted in the appointment below. Also, because your blood tests showed abnormalities in your kidney function (Acute kidney injury) when you first arrived, we gave you some additional body fluids via IV, which helped resolve the kidney malfunction within the first day of your admission. We believe the abnormalities in your kidneys were caused by low fluids in your blood, so when you leave the hospital, you should try drinking water regularly. For your diabetes and depression, we maintained you on the same medications you usually take at home, and there were no issues in managing both these conditions. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your care. Your ___ team! Followup Instructions: ___

STUDIES ======= ___ LEFT FOOT X-RAY No definite radiographic evidence for osteomyelitis. ___ RIGHT KNEE X-RAY No acute fracture or dislocation. ___ CXR No acute cardiopulmonary abnormality. ___ CT HEAD 1. No acute intracranial abnormalities. 2. Chronic infarcts with encephalomalacia in the right frontal, parietal, and occipital lobes. ___ CXR Compared to prior radiograph from earlier the same date, a left internal jugular catheter has been placed, terminating in the mid superior vena cava, with no pneumothorax. Exam is otherwise similar to the recent study except for improving linear bibasilar atelectasis. ___ ECHO The left atrium and right atrium are normal in cavity size. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size. Due to suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully excluded. There is mild to moderate global left ventricular hypokinesis (LVEF = 35-40 %). The aortic root is mildly dilated at the sinus level. The aortic valve leaflets (?#) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion. No masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. There is no aortic valve stenosis. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve prolapse. No masses or vegetations are seen on the mitral valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. No masses or vegetations are seen on the tricuspid valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. The pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. No masses or vegetations are seen on the pulmonic valve, but cannot be fully excluded due to suboptimal image quality. There is an anterior space which most likely represents a prominent fat pad. Suboptimal image quality. No echocardiographic evidence of pathologic flow. Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___, left ventricular function appears less vigorous. ___ CTA ABDOMEN/PELVIS 1. No intraluminal IV contrast extravasation into the large or small bowel. No abdominopelvic hematoma. 2. Sigmoid and descending colonic diverticulosis. 3. Heterogeneous micronodular consolidation at the right lung base may represent sequela of aspiration or pneumonia. 4. Intraluminal filling defect at the aortic bifurcation associated with calcified atherosclerotic plaque, extending into the origin of the left common iliac artery, has the appearance of noncalcified atheroma. This results in moderate to severe narrowing of the luminal diameter of the infrarenal abdominal aorta as well as the origin of the left common iliac artery. 5. Intraluminal filling defect of the right profunda femoral artery extending into its branches, associated with calcified plaque, also likely representing arterial atheroma. This results in moderate to severe narrowing of the arterial lumen. ___ LEFT FOOT X-RAY (POST-AMPUTATIONS) Status post transmetatarsal amputation of all digits of the left foot. There are sharp surgical margins. An overlying surgical drain is noted. There is soft tissue swelling and air. ___ TEE Dynamic interatrial septum. No atrial septal defect is seen by 2D or color Doppler. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The ascending, transverse and descending thoracic aorta are normal in diameter and free of atherosclerotic plaque to 35 cm from the incisors. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion. No masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. No mass or vegetation is seen on the mitral valve. Trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. There is no pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: No evidence of valvular vegetation, abscess or significant regurgitation. Normal biventricular systolic function. ___ EGD Findings: Esophagus: Normal esophagus. Stomach: Mucosa: Erythema of the mucosa was noted in the antrum. Cold forceps biopsies were performed for histology to evaluate for H.pylori. Excavated Lesions A 4mm clean based ulcer was seen in the pylorus. Duodenum: Excavated Lesions Multiple clean based ulcers ranging in size from 4 mm to 8 mm were found in the second part of the duodenum. Impression: Ulcer in the pylorus Ulcers in the duodenum Erythema in the antrum (biopsy) Otherwise normal EGD to third part of the duodenum Brief Hospital Course: ___ gentleman with past medical history significant for poorly controlled diabetes, CKD, CAD (NSTEMI with DES to LAD and LCx in ___, HLD, and ongoing osteomyelitis of his left foot who presented to the ___ ED with altered mental status and diabetic ketoacidosis, subsequently found to have acute blood loss anemia from GI bleed. ======================== ACTIVE ISSUES: ======================== #) Acute blood loss anemia: The patient was initially admitted to the ___ ICU. He was then transferred to a ___ general medicine floor in preparation for TMA for osteomyelitis as below. However on the morning of transfer, he was noted to have a large maroon colored stool, estimated to be 500-1000cc in volume associated with an 8-point drop in hematocrit and hypotension to the SBP ___. He was subsequently transferred to the MICU. He was transfused 6 units pRBCs and 1 unit FFP. NG lavage was negative. He then began to have hematemesis; it was unclear whether this was due to upper GI bleed or trauma related to the NG lavage. The patient continued to pass clots per rectum, but he remained hemodynamically stable. He was evaluated by Gastroenterology, who recommended upper and lower endoscopy. The patient underwent EGD which showed ulcers of the pylorus and duodenum. Colonoscopy was attempted but bowel prep was poor. However, GI felt that the most likely source of his bleed were the ulcers seen on EGD. He will require repeat EGD in 8 weeks post-discharge; GI clinic at ___ to coordinate. H. pylori biopsies pending. #) Diabetic ketoacidosis: Patient presented with serum glucose of >700, anion gap of 31, and venous blood gas with pH of 7.29. Ketones present in the urine. Precipitant likely a GI source given vomiting in the days preceding admission and mild abdominal tenderness on initial exam. Urine and CXR without sign of infection, LFTs unremarkable, and initial troponin negative. DKA resolved with insulin and IVF, and patient was restarted on Lantus w/ ___. Precipitant likely infection. Patient discharged on Lantus 18u BID. #) Osteomyelitis: WBC of 18k on admission, with 90% neutrophils. Blood cultures grew back MSSA. Most likely related to osteomyelitis in foot. History of osteomyelitis of the left foot, with initial ___ admission from ___. Patient treated with nafcillin, and is scheduled to go to the OR for amputation of his foot. Additionally, there was concern for aspiration based on patient's symptoms and bibasilar opacities on CXR; patient was evaluated by speech and swallow, and made NPO to prevent further aspiration events. TTE and TEE demonstrated no valvular vegetations. #) Altered mental status: Resolved. atient noted to be altered on day of admission, and was AOx2 on arrival to the ___. CT head in ED was negative for acute changes. Altered status is likely due to toxic-metabolic derangement in the setting of DKA, vs changes related to infection. #) Acute on chronic kidney disease: Serum creatinine was 0.9-1.1 as recent as ___ but then 1.4 in ___ as outpatient. Cr elevated at 3.8 on presentation, likely due to hypovolemia in the setting of DKA (with history of recent vomiting, Hbg/Hct also with hemoconcentration). Creatinine improved with fluid rescuscitation, suggesting prerenal etiology. #) Nutrition. Patient noted to have significant dysphagia while in ICU. Patient was evaluated by S&S multiple times and ultimately liberalized to thin liquids/ground solids diet at diet. #) Atrial fibrillation: seen on EKG. Likely precipitant is acute infection. ======================== CHRONIC ISSUES: ======================== #) Asperger's and paranoid/schizotypal personality: per prior admission notes. Has at times limited his way of interacting with hospital and rehab staff. Has required chemical restraints in the past. Intermittently refused medications and treatments while in hospital. #) HTN: was started on losartan during hospitalization in ___. Held during this this admission given recent bleeding. #) CAD: history of likely NSTEMI in ___ with DES to LAD and LCx. Followed by Cardiology at ___.
