Attending: ___.
Chief Complaint:
seizures
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
**History somewhat limited upon interview given post-ictal
state,
most history obtained through ___ records**
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman wiht known history of epilepsy
and
recurrent skin infections who presents with increased seizure
activity. Typically Ms. ___ has seizures consisting of eye
blinking or head dropping that occur without loss of
consciouness
several times per day and rarely has convulsive seizures. Over
the last 24 hours she has had 4 convulsive events prompting
evaluation in the ED.
Over the last week she has had cough and vomiting, which she
says
has been occuring a few times per day. She denies any fever or
diarrhea. She has not missed any doses of medication and denies
vomiting any of her medication as well. She had been having her
usual frequency of blinking epsiodes (few per day) and last
night
on the evening of ___ she had a generalized tonic clonic
seizure and was seen at ___. She was discharged
after workup was unremarkable but again this morning had an
event
at 7:45 am that lasted 5 minutes and occurred while getting her
daughter ready for daycare. Dr. ___ was aware of the
ED
visit and seizures and advised prn ativan and a dose increase in
her lamictal from 850mg to 900mg. She was advised to take the
ativan once this afternoon and again around 8pm if she was not
feeling too sleepy. When her aunt had gone to pick up the
perscription for ativan, she returned home to find ___
seizing in the bathroom. At that time the decision was made to
bring her into the ED for further evaluation. She was seen at
___ again, received her evening meds and 1mg
ativan
PO and was transferred here.
Upon arrival to our ED, she had another generalized tonic clonic
seizure that lasted <1 minute. She was post-ictal afterwards but
began to regain consciousness and become more alert.
She was last admitted to the epilepsy service in ___ when she
had increasing seizure frequency in the setting of transitioning
from Tegretol to Lamictal. She was admitted and placed on EEG
which showed no specific electrographic events
concerning for seizure although the patient noted having events
consistent with her typical seizures - eye blinking for less
than one minute which resolved without loss of consciousness or
post-ictal confusion / lethargy. Her lamictal XR was increased
to
800mg daily and she continued on Zonisamide at 400mg daily.
To review her prior epilepsy history, she has had seizures since
___. At that point they were generalized convulsions that would
occur at night. She was started on Tegretol and developed more
subtle events of eye blinking sometimes with speech arrest or
slurred speech. She sometimes has events of just slurred speech.
These more subtle events sometimes can progress to loss of
consciousness.
Per recent notes, currently, her semiologies are:
- bilateral eye blinking with speech arrest
- slurred speech
- head bobbing, groaning and stuttering and speech arrest
- generalized convulsions.
She has previously been on Tegretol XR and was also on
Neurontin
and Keppra both of which were discontinued (neurontin-
ineffective, keppra-irritability). She is currently on Lamictal
and Zonegran.
On neuro ROS, the pt denies headache, loss of vision, blurred
vision, diplopia, dysarthria, dysphagia, lightheadedness,
vertigo, tinnitus or hearing difficulty. Denies difficulties
producing or comprehending speech. Denies focal weakness,
numbness, parasthesiae. No bowel or bladder incontinence or
retention. Denies difficulty with gait.
On general review of systems, she complains of vomiting and
cough. The pt denies recent fever or chills. No night sweats or
recent weight loss or gain. Denies shortness of breath. Denies
chest pain or tightness, palpitations. Denies diarrhea,
constipation or abdominal pain. No recent change in bowel or
bladder habits. No dysuria. Denies arthralgias or myalgias.
Denies rash.

History of Present Illness:
Ms. ___ is a ___ right handed female with a history of
epilepsy, multiple MRSA-cultured skin abscesses who presents
today with persistent auras resulting in atypical episode of
loss
of tone and fall without headstrike or neck trauma. The patient
notes having multiple episodes of her typical aura today which
manifests as "feeling like sounds reverberate for a period of
time" which terminate with eyelid fluttering. However, today
the
episodes waxed and waned over the course of 1400hrs to 1830hrs
as
well as included the sensation that she was "tingling all over".
The patient also reported attempting to contact ___
for an Ativan prescription to arrest the aura, however, at
1830hrs, she reported losing all tone, not awareness, and
collapsing to the ground for a few seconds ___ sec) without any
loss of awareness. No episode of post-ictal fatigue, weakness,
or other sequelae were remarkable; however, the patient today
noted feeling some fatigue approximately 2.5 hours status post
the event. She denies any recent trauma, illness, or
non-compliance with medication. Of note, she reportedly had
been
scheduled for LTM admission on ___. Per conversation with
Dr. ___ epileptologist, the decision was made to
admit to expedite her study.
Seizure history per my prior note as in OMR and per patient
report:
She has had seizures since age ___. The description of events at
that time were night-time episodes of generalized convulsions
with loss of consciousness. At one point, she had a cluster of
six events and was started on carbamazepine. She subsequently
developed more subtle events with right eye blinking, sometimes
progressing to speech arrest. At times, she might also just have
slurred speech. Rarely, she might have progression of these
episodes to generalized convulsions with loss of consciousness.
Her blinking episodes now affect both sides, and she has mostly
"head bobbing" episodes. Her usual events now are described as
bilateral eyelid twitching upon awakening, usually lasting
seconds to a minute, and head bobbing or dipping with stuttering
groan without impaired consciousness, limb movements, or
post-ictal lethargy / confusion.

SPECT
Ictal - not interpretable due to motion artifact
inter-ictal - IMPRESSION: No obvious focal perfusion
abnormality identified on this
interictal study.
EEG - IMPRESSION: This is an abnormal continuous EMU monitoring
study with the
presence of occasional right frontotemporal spikes and six
electrographic
seizures followed by a generalized post ictal slowing. This is
suggestive of
a highly epileptogenic cortex with a right frontal foci.
Additionally, there
are occasional two to three second bursts of fast activity with
higher voltage
over the right hemisphere which can, at times, be seen in
patients with a
cortical malformation but in themselves are non-specific.
Compared to prior
days' recording, there was an increase in epleptiform activity
and
electrographic seizures.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ was admitted to the epilepsy monitoring unit earlier
than previously planned (she was scheduled for monitoring for
pre-epilepsy surgery evaluation) for seizure. She had multiple
events after her medications were tapered off. Unfortunately,
however, her ictal SPECT was not readable.
#SEIZURE - She was placed on EEG monitoring ___, and her
Lamictal XR 800mg daily was tapered to 0 by ___. Over this
period of time, she had multiple episodes of eye fluttering with
no EEG correlate. On ___, her Zonegran was discontinued. On ___
and ___, patient underwent ictal and inter-ictal SPECT, however,
the ictal spect was not readable secondary to motion artifact.
The ictal SPECT was normal with no perfusion abnormalities. MRI
with and without contrast was normal. Her background EEG showed
right frontotemporal spikes. Over the next several days, she had
multiple generalized seizures, which were characterized on EEG
by a secondarily generalizing partial seizure beginning in the
right frontotemporal region with a 1.5Hz spike and wave pattern.
Clinically, these were characterized by facial twitching,
followed by bilaterally eye fluttering and bilateral clonic arm
and leg movements. Due to this, she was loaded with dilantin,
and her home medications were restarted, which stopped her
seizures.
New medications added during this admission include dilantin. No
other medication changes were made.
OUSTANDING ISSUES
- Taper dilantin
- Pre-surgical planning with SPECT unsuccessful - she may
require invasive EEG monitoring

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the epilepsy monitoring unit for EEG
monitoring to further characterize your seizures for
pre-surgical evaluation. After stopping your lamictal, you had
multiple events which we were able to see on EEG, on the right
side of your brain. After this, we started you on dilantin, and
restarted your lamictal, at which point your generalized
seizures stopped. You will follow up with epilepsy to make a
plan from here, which will likely include invasive EEG
electrodes.
NEW MEDICATIONS
Dilantin 300mg extended release every evening.
Please continue to take your other medications as prescribed

Discharge Instructions:
Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the General Surgery (___) service at ___
for an injury to your spleen and multiple rib fractures. Here
are some instructions for your post-hospital course:
Your liver/spleen injury will heal in time. It is important that
you do not participate in any contact sports or any other
activity for the next 6 weeks that may cause injury to your
abdominal region.
Avoid aspirin producs, NSAID's such as Advil, Motrin, Ibuprofen,
Naprosyn, or Coumadin for at least ___ weeks unless otherwise
directed as these can cause bleeding internally.
You should go to the nearest Emergency department if you
suddenly feel dizzy or lightheaded, as if you are going to pass
out. These are signs that you may be having internal bleeding
from your liver/spleen injury.
You also sustained rib fractures which can cause severe pain and
subsequently cause you to take shallow breaths because of the
pain. You should take your pain medicine as as directed to stay
ahead of the pain otherwise you won't be able to take deep
breaths. If the pain medication is too sedating, take half the
dose and notify your physician.
Pneumonia is a complication of rib fractures. In order to
decrease your risk you must use your incentive spirometer 4
times every hour while awake. This will help expand the small
airways in your lungs and assist in coughing up secretions that
pool in the lungs.
You will be more comfortable if you use a cough pillow to hold
against your chest and guard your rib cage while coughing and
deep breathing.
Symptomatic relief with ice packs or heating pads for short
periods may ease the pain.
Do NOT smoke.
Return to the ED right away for any acute shortness of breath,
increased pain or crackling sensation around your rips
(crepitus).
Narcotic pain medication can cause constipation. Therefore you
should take a stool softener twice daily and increase your fluid
and fiber intake if possible.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
You came to the hospital for worsening lower back pain radiating
down your right leg. Because you have been having chronic back
pain for 3 months, we performed an x-ray of your lower spine,
which was normal. You likely have a mechanical cause of your
back pain, which could be a herniated disc. Your pain was
reduced with a combination of oxycodone, ibuprofen, and
acetaminophen. We recommend that you follow up with the spine
clinic for further management of your back pain as an
outpatient. Please keep the appointments listed below.

RENAL U.S. Study Date of ___ 5:16 ___
No cystic lesions are seen in the left kidney. Small septated
cyst right
kidney.
MR ___ W/O CONTRAST Study Date of ___ 7:38 ___
1. There is diffuse thickening and abnormal enhancement of the
cervical and thoracic ventral and dorsal nerve roots as well as
of the cauda equina and lumbar peripheral nerves. Overall the
findings are compatible with given history of
___. However, given the patient's history of
stage IV lymphoma, lymphomas involvement should be excluded.
2. No definite cord signal abnormality is identified. There is
no evidence of high-grade spinal canal or neural foraminal
narrowing.
3. Multiple nonenhancing T2 hypointense cystic lesions in the
left kidney
measuring up to 1 cm, likely representing hemorrhagic cysts.
This could be further evaluated with ultrasound.
4. Bilateral dependent atelectasis of the lung bases. Clinical
correlation for more confluent focus in the right lung base for
superimposed consolidation.
5. Additional findings as described above.
EMG ___
Abnormal, limited study. Based on the studies performed, there
is no
electrophysiologic evidence for myopathic process. Incidentally,
the findings are suggestive of a generalized sensorimotor
polyneuropathy that was incompletely characterized by the
present study.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ female with history of
muscular ___ disease and stage IV
Hodgkin lymphoma on clinical trial ___ (nivolumab + ABVD,
last dose on ___, recent history of proctocolitis,
presenting with reported diarrhea, falls, and proximal ___
weakness.

#Fall
#Proximal, bilateral lower extremity weakness
#Muscular dystrophy
___:
Neurology was consulted given patient's report of lower
extremity weakness and falls. Likely the cause of her reported
increase in falls at home and need for help w ADLs. No head
strike or other concerning symptoms. Pelvic x-ray without
fracture. MRI spine with diffuse enhancement of nerve roots, EMG
limited in scope but not indicative of myopathy. B12 and CK
normal. Acetylcholinesterase antibodies pending. Lumbar puncture
___ to r/o CNS spread of lymphoma was negative on prelim
path. CSF w high protein thought likely to be from known CMT.
Most likely cause of weakness thought to be worsening CMT.
Discharge to rehab to improve functional status and safety at
home with non-urgent outpatient neuro f/u.
#Report of Diarrhea: Patient did not have any episodes of
diarrhea during hospitalization. Stool studies were not sent.
#Small septated cyst right kidney: Incidentally noted left renal
cysts on MRI, followed up with U/S, one cyst noted on the right.
Should have Renal phase MRI for further evaluation done as
outpatient.

exam under anesthesia and vulvar debridement for a vulvar wound
abscess. Intraoperative finidings included a 12 x 8cm necrotic
vulvectomy wound bed extending under skin edges 4-5 cm
superiorly to symphysis. A 4 x 3 cm separate necrotic ulcer
extending 2-3 cm inferiorly and 4 cm superiorly/laterally and
connecting to the larger wound defect with overlying ___ll visible necrotic tissue was debrided and packed with
moistened Kerlix packing. Rectum and urethra appeared intact and
uninvolved. A foley was also placed. ID was consulted and she
was subsequently started on broad spectrum antibiotics of
vancomycin, clindamycin, and zosyn. On HD1, she was taken back
to the OR for an exam under anesthesia, wound exploration, and
vulvar debridement. Intraoperative findings included a large
right-sided vulvar defect tracking superiorly towards mons and
right inguinal ligament, urethra and anus in tact. Patient
remained afebrile and stable with pain well controlled with
dilaudid PCA. On HD2, she underwent her third wound debridement
at which time a wound vac was placed. Her antibiotic regimen was
also narrowed at which time vancomycin and clindamycin were
discontinued and she was continued on zosyn. On HD4, she
underwent her fourth wound debridement and a wound vac changed.
A PICC line was also placed. On HD5, her tissue and wound
cultures resulted and her antibiotics were further changed from
zosyn to IV ceftriaxone and PO flagyl. On HD7, she underwent a
delayed primary closure done by Dr. ___ with intraoperative
findings as follows: Clean wound with 100% granulation. No
purulence. Remaining tissue appears viable. 15 cm in length. A
JP drain was placed. Patient recovered well and continued to be
afebrile with vital signs stable. On HD10, her foley was removed
and she was able to void spontaneously. Her incision continued
to heal well with minimal erythema but with out induration or
fluctuance. On HD11 her JP was removed with out issues. She was
able to ambulate independently, voiding spontaneously,
tolerating a regular diet with out nausea or vomiting. She was
discharged home with ___ services to continue her course of IV
ceftriaxone and PO flagyl until ___.
*) Hypertension
Ms. ___ was continued on her home medication for chronic
hypertension (lisinopril-hydrochlorothiazide ___ mg tablet

and 4 she began having sustained elevated blood pressures to the
180s/90s. She required spot doses of IV hydralazine ranging from
___. Her medication were uptitrated to the maximum dose of
lisinopril and hydrochlorothiazide. She was also started on
labetalol for further control of her blood pressures. On the day
of discharge, she was stable with baseline blood pressures, with
outpatient follow up with her PCP, ___ further
titrating of her hypertension regimen.
*) Loose stools: On HD4 she began having loose stools with stool
incontinence. Patient endorsed a baseline of episodes of stool
incontinence, however, given repeated episodes in the setting of
antibiotic use, a c-diff was obtained. On HD5, the c-diff
resulted as negative. She was placed on stool bulkers. Her wound
was cleaned after every bowel movement to assure the incision
was clean, dry and intact. Her loose stools and incontinence
improved throughout her hospital stay.
*) T2DM: Ms. ___ was placed on an insulin sliding scale with
her home dose of glargine. Her measured blood glucose were
elevated through her admission and thus her insulin sliding

Brief Hospital Course:
___ woman with history of dementia and psychosis with
delusions who presented with following fall with left femoral
neck fracture s/p left hemiarthroplasty, with hospital course
complicated by UTI, pneumonia, and toxic-metabolic
encephalopathy.
ACUTE ISSUES:
=============
# LEFT FEMORAL NECK FRACTURE S/P LEFT HEMIARTHROPLASTY
The patient presented to the emergency department and was
evaluated by the orthopaedic surgery team. The patient was found
to have an isolated displaced left femoral neck fracture and was
admitted to the orthopaedic surgery service. The patient was
taken to the operating room on ___ for left hip
hemiarthroplasty, which the patient tolerated well. and after
satisfactory recovery from anesthesia was transferred to the
floor. The patient was initially given IV fluids and IV pain
medications, and progressed to a regular diet and oral
medications by POD#1. The patient was given ___
antibiotics and anticoagulation in the form of enoxaparin 40 mg
sc daily per routine. She should continue enoxaparin for 4 weeks
(until ___.
# URINARY TRACT INFECTION
# PNEUMONIA
# TOXIC-METABOLIC ENCEPHALOPATHY
She developed worsening mental status, hypoxia, and increased
respiratory secretions on ___. Her chest x-ray showed evidence
of a left lower lobe consolidation concerning for pneumonia. She
also had a UA with pyuria and bacteriuria. Her Foley was pulled
on ___. Her urine culture grew pansensitive E. coli. She was
started on ceftriaxone on ___. This was broadened to
vanc/ceftazidime on ___ given concurrent likely
hospital-acquired pneumonia. Her mental status and respiratory
symptoms improved significantly on this regimen.
Vancomycin was discontinued on ___ given a negative MRSA swab.
The following day, ceftazidime was discontinued and she was
transitioned to oral Augmentin. Unfortunately her mental status
then deteriorated again and she was unable to tolerate p.o.'s.
While she did not have any pulmonary symptoms that would be
particularly suggestive of a partially-treated PNA, the
worsening of her encephalopathy seemed to correlate with switch
from an antipseudomonal cephalosporin to PO Augmentin, so we
re-initiated cefepime on ___. Almost like magic her
encephalopathy cleared again after two days of treatment. She
completed five more days of cefepime in house and will take two
days of PO Levaquin at discharge to complete a seven-day
re-treatment course for HAP, presumably caused by pseudomonas or
an ESBL gram-negative organism.
# DYSPHAGIA
After recovering her mental status, she was recommended for
nectar thick liquids and puree solids. Ongoing discussions with
family regarding GOC. In terms of her PO
intake, they would like to optimize her quality of life even if
there is a risk of aspiration. Thus, she was upgraded to regular
diet as tolerated to aid in nutrition.
# URINARY RETENTION
She developed urinary retention postoperatively and failed
multiple trials of void initially. She required multiple
straight catheterizations. At discharge she is again voiding
spontaneously.
# HYPERTENSION
Primarily appears to be driven by agitation with concurrent
tachycardia that coincides with behavioral disturbances. She was
not given antihypertensives due to her labile blood pressures.
# ANEMIA
Likely acute blood loss from hip surgery. Hemoglobin was stable
at discharge.
# DEMENTIA
# PSYCHOSIS / DELUSIONS
She was continued on her home risperidone, lamotrigine, and
citalopram while able to take p.o. medications.
# ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY
Suspect prerenal in setting of acute infection and recent
operation. Improved following IV fluids.
# GOALS OF CARE
The patient has advanced dementia and declining quality of life
in the setting of psychiatric disturbance secondary to her
dementia. It was also appreciated on this admission that she
tolerates serious illness and prolonged hospitalization poorly,
given her poor cognitive reserve and tendency to profound
delirium.
Goals of care were discussed with family and they wish to
transition her to a more comfort-directed plan of care. Their
preference is to forgo interventions that decrease quality of
life in the name of safety or longevity (i.e. texture modified
diet) and for her not to return to the hospital unless needed
for comfort.

IMAGING
CT colonography (___): There is adequate distention of the
cecum, ascending colon, and transverse colon to the splenic
flexure, rectum and distal sigmoid colon between the supine
upright scan. The patient was unable to retain sufficient
volume of gas for successful insufflation of the descending
colon. There are no mass lesions or polyps larger than 1 cm in
the portion of the colon which is insufflated. The large and
dilated recannalized umbilical vein is pressing on and indenting
the ___ colon anteriorly. There are multiple splenic,
gastric, and ___ varices seen. No evidence of active
extravasation of contrast to account for melena.
TTE (___): The left atrium is mildly dilated. Left ventricular
wall thickness, cavity size and regional/global systolic
function are normal (LVEF = 70%). Right ventricular chamber size
and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3)
appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no
aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. There is no valvular
aortic stenosis. The increased transaortic velocity is likely
related to high cardiac output. The mitral valve appears
structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. There is
mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There is no
pericardial effusion. IMPRESSION: no vegetations seen.
Colonoscopy (___): Normal mucosa in the rectum, sigmoid colon,
descending colon, transverse colon and distal ascending colon.
The cecum was not visualized. There was no obvious source of
bleeding in the remainder of the examined colon. The cecum was
not reached secondary to difficult anatomy and patient
intolerance of further scope advancement. Otherwise normal
colonoscopy to proximal ascending colon.
EGD (___): Grade 1 varices at the gastroesophageal junction
that did not have stigmata of recent hemmorhage. There was no
clear source for the anemia or dark stools seen on this exam.
Abnormal mucosa in the stomach. Normal mucosa in the whole
duodenum. Otherwise normal EGD to third part of the duodenum
RUQ US (___): Cirrhosis with sequelae of chronic portal venous
hypertension. Reversal of flow in the portal vein branches is
suggestive of severe portal hypertension. Moderate ascites. An
amenable spot was marked by the radiology resident in the left
flank for paracentesis. Splenomegaly.
CXR (___): Increased density at the left lung base concerning
for pneumonia with fluid layering in the left major fissure.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ yo M with PMH of HCV and alcoholic cirrhosis presenting with
abdominal pain, distension, and fevers for 3 days.
ACTIVE ISSUES
# Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis: Patient had been with
worsening abdominal distension and fevers for 3 days concerning
for SBP. Paracentesis was unsuccessful despite a good fluid
pocket in ED. Patient was started on empiric ceftriaxone and
albumin per the SBP protocol. Repeat paracentesis on ___
revealed 1200 WB Cs and 67% PMNS consistent with SBP. Had a LVP
with 2 L removal on ___ which showed downtrend in counts with
antibiotics. Blood culture grew Strep viridans as below for
which vancomycin was added. This was subsequently discontinued
as S. viridans was found to be sensitive to ceftriaxone. Patient
completed 5 day course for SBP but was continued on ceftriaxone
given bacteremia. He was given a prescription for prophylactic
Bactrim to fill after he completes course of ceftriaxone.
# Strep viridans bacteremia: Blood cultures grew S. viridans for
which vancomycin was added to ceftriaxone. Source unclear.
Patient denied any recent dental work and has not used IV drugs
in over a decade. Exam significant for a murmur which is old per
patient. Subacute infectious endocarditis seemed most likely for
which he underwent TTE on ___. This revealed no vegetations.
Further evaluation with ___ was discussed with Cardiology and
they felt that patient's TTE was sufficient to rule out
endocarditis. ID was consulted regarding source identification
and duration of antibiotics. Their impression was that S.
viridans was most likely from a GI source as it is a GI
colonizer. Recommended at 3 week course of antibiotics.
Sensitivities revealed S. viridans was sensitive to ceftriaxone
for which vancomycin was discontinued. A PICC was placed for
outpatient antibiotic therapy and patient was discharged to
complete a 3 week course of antibiotics.
# Melena: Patient with dark stools recently. Recent Hct 21.9
with baseline in 40's. Most recent EGD in ___ remarkable for
grade I esophageal varices and portal hypertensive gastropathy.
Patient received 1 unit RBC on ___. Hct bumped appropriately.
EGD on ___ remarkable only for grade I esophageal varices with
no stigmata of recent bleeding. Subsequent colonoscopy did not
reveal any bleeding but cecum could not be visualized. For this
reason, patient underwent CT colonography which again showed no
active source of bleeding. Patient was managed with pantoprazole
IV Q12H while in hospital and he was discharged on twice daily
dosing. Would benefit from further evaluation with capsule
endoscopy as outpatient.
CHRONIC ISSUES
# Cirrhosis: Due to HCV and alcohol. Has stopped drinking for
past 18 months. Patient has no history of HE or SBP. He has
grade I esophageal varices. MELD 17. Not on transplant list but
would like to be considered. Continued home Lasix and
spironolactone. Increased doses of diuretics on day of discharge
due to worsening ascites. Patient underwent a large volume
paracentesis removing 2 L while in hospital. He was not very
distended on discharge but will likely need another LVP in the
near future. Has ___ for transplant evaluation scheduled.
# Depression: Stable. Continued home regimen.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
- Discharged to complete a 3 week course of ceftriaxone via PICC
- ___ services to help with infusions
- Labs to be followed by OP AT. Check CBC, electrolytes, BUN/Cr,

TTE: ___:
The left atrial volume index is normal. There is normal left
ventricular wall thickness with a normal cavity size. Overall
left ventricular systolic function is normal. However, the
posterior wall appears hypokinetic. Other focal wall motion
abnormalities cannot be excluded with certainty. The visually
estimated left ventricular ejection fraction is 60%. The right

motion assessment. The aortic sinus diameter is normal for
gender with normal ascending aorta diameter for gender. The
aortic arch diameter is normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3)
appear structurally normal. There is no aortic valve stenosis.
There is no aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve leaflets are
mildly thickened with no mitral valve prolapse. There is trivial
mitral regurgitation. The tricuspid valve leaflets appear
structurally normal. There is moderate [2+] tricuspid
regurgitation. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic
hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion.
CT ___
IMPRESSION:
1. There is an organized/walled-off collection in the left
abdomen which is
increased in size compared to prior. This collection is
amenable to
percutaneous drainage.
2. There is no extravasation of oral contrast from the small
bowel.
3. Pigtail catheter is seen in the perisplenic collection, this
collection is
decreased in size compared to prior imaging.

associated
small peripheral wedge-shaped hypodensity (suspected infarct)
suggests left
renal vascular compromise. The left renal artery and vein
appears grossly
patent. No hydronephrosis. Nephrology/urology consult advised
5. Bilateral lower lung zone airspace opacification/pneumonia
with small
left-sided pleural effusion appears fairly similar compared to
prior.

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old female who was transferred to ___
___ on ___ with a small bowel
obstruction s/p TAH-BSO on ___. She was initially
admitted to the OB-Gyn service for nonoperative management of
her SBO with bowel rest. The patient's symptoms did not improve
and she developed worsening sepsis. ACS was consulted on
hospital day 1 in this setting, due to concern for intra
abdominal source of infection. Review of the patient's OSH
imaging revealed that her bowel obstruction was secondary to an
incarcerated port site hernia. In this setting, she was taken to
the operating room with ACS that evening and underwent an
exploratory laparotomy, jejunal resection left in discontinuity
with an open abdomen, abthera placement, and repair of her port
site hernia. Of note, she was found to have a small bowel
perforation and this segment of bowel was resected, however the
incarcerated bowel appeared healthy For additional details of
the procedure, please see the surgeon's operative note. The
patient remained intubated post operatively and on pressors, and
she was brought to the ICU for hemodynamic and respiratory
support. The remainder of her hospital course is described below
by system:
Neuro: The patient was alert and oriented throughout
hospitalization; pain was initially managed with a fentanyl
drip. She was then transitioned to an oral pain regimen once
extubated and tolerating a diet.
CV: Post operatively, the patient was resuscitated with
crystalloid and colloid, titrated to achieve goal urine output >
0.5cc/kg/hr. Her lactate peaked at 5.9 but downtrended with
resuscitation and decreasing pressor requirements. She was
eventually weaned off of pressors on ___.
Pulmonary: The patient had an increasing ventilatory requirement
post operatively, likely in the setting of volume overload. She
required a PEEP as high as 16, which was gradually weaned as her
volume status improved. She was extubated. Good pulmonary
toilet, early ambulation and incentive spirometry were
encouraged throughout hospitalization.
GI/GU/FEN: The patient was initially kept NPO with a
___ tube in place for decompression and management of
post-operative ileus. She was maintained on TPN given high
gastric outputs from ___ until ___. Her diet was then
advanced sequentially to a regular diet, which was well
tolerated. Patient's intake and output were closely monitored.
She was diuresed with a lasix drip and then with lasix boluses
as tolerated. During her ICU course she was noted to have a
multifactorial acute kidney injury due to hypotension requiring
pressors and aggressive diuresis, which had been initiated due
to her volume overloaded status.
ID: The patient's fever curves were closely watched for signs of
infection. She was febrile at multiple points in her ICU course
and was cultured multiple times with the only pertinent positive
being a sputum culture from ___ growing sparse yeast.
HEME: The patient's blood counts were closely watched for signs
of bleeding. She was transfused 1u pRBCs on ___ for an H/H
6.9/21.7 in the setting of ongoing pressor requirement, and she
responded appropriately. She was also transfused 1u pRBCs on
___ for anemia with appropriate response.
On ___ she was called out to the floor. She was started on a
clear liquid diet and IV Reglan. She reported mild nausea which
was treated with IV Zofran and her oxygen saturation was 95-97%
on RA. On ___ we removed the staples from her incision, she
continued on full TPN due to minimal PO intake. On ___ skin
dehiscence was found when inspecting her wound, fascia was found
to be intact and wet to dry dressing were applied twice a day.
On ___ it was decided that a wound VAC would be placed in the
wound. Due to increase in PO intake, TPN was switched to half
dosage. Her WBC had an elevation to 20.9, urine culture was
sent, CXR and blood cultures along with C diff stool PCR were
sent. A CT abdomen and pelvis was also sent to rule out any
collections. CT showed a organized walled off collection in the
left abdomen along with left renal infarct.
On ___ she was seen by interventional radiology and 280cc of
pus were drained and a pigtail catheter was left in place. Due
to CT finding of renal infarct a renal US was performed and
showed no thrombosis of the renal vein or stenosis, TPN was
d/c'd and she was tolerating regular diet. On ___ ID saw the
patient and recommended continue IV cefepime. On ___ final
culture from fluid collection grew Enterococcus and she was
switched to IV meropenem. on ___ her C diff was found to be
negative, she increased ambulation and was on a regular diet.
She worked with physical therapy.
On ___ her first wound VAC change was performed, wound looked
pink and appropriately healing. Infectious disease saw her for
final recommendations and suggest switching to
Daptomycin/Ertapenem 24 hours before discharge to see if patient
tolerated regimen as well as baseline laboratory values.
Prophylaxis: The patient received subcutaneous heparin and ___
dyne boots were used during this stay and was encouraged to get
up and ambulate as early as possible.
At the time of discharge, the patient was doing well, afebrile
and hemodynamically stable. The patient was tolerating a diet,
ambulating, voiding without assistance, and pain was well
controlled. The patient received discharge teaching and
follow-up instructions with understanding verbalized and
agreement with the discharge plan. She is going home with ___
services to help her with her IV antibiotic treatment along with
VAC wound change every 3 days.

MRI:
1. Small 6 mm acute to subacute infarct of the left temporal
lobe. No
associated mass effect.
2. Numerous chronic infarcts of the cerebral white matter,
bilateral basal
ganglia, and thalami. Severe chronic microangiopathy.
3. Moderate generalized parenchymal volume loss.
4. Asymmetric enlargement of the right temporal horn, although
this appears to
be due to adjacent temporal lobe volume loss rather than
specifically volume
loss of the right hippocampus.
5. Occlusion of the V4 segment of the right vertebral artery,
unchanged from
CTA on ___.
EEG:
This telemetry captured no pushbutton activations. It showed a
slow background throughout, indicative of a widespread
encephalopathy.
Medications, metabolic discharges, and infection are among the
most common causes. In addition, there was prominent delta
slowing broadly over the left hemisphere, suggestive of an
additional subcortical dysfunction there. Minimal slowing was
evident on the right. There were no epileptiform features or
electrographic seizures.
This telemetry captured one pushbutton activation for an episode
of confusion. There was no electrographic correlate. Otherwise,
it showed
prominent delta slowing over the left hemisphere suggestive of
focal cerebral dysfunction. In addition, the background was slow
and disorganized throughout suggestive of a widespread
encephalopathy which is non-specific with regard to etiology.
There were no epileptiform features or electrographic seizures.
CT Head and Neck:
1. No evidence for acute intracranial abnormalities on
noncontrast head CT.
Nondiagnostic CT perfusion study due to technical factors.
2. Multiple chronic infarcts are again seen in the right
thalamus, left
caudate, and left lentiform nucleus/corona radiata/external
capsule.
3. No flow-limiting arterial stenosis in the neck.
4. Unchanged atherosclerotic occlusion of the distal V4 segment
of the non
dominant right vertebral artery.
5. Bronchiectasis in the visualized upper lungs with apparent
new bronchial
wall thickening compared to ___, which may represent
superimposed
infectious/inflammatory process versus technical differences.
Clinical
correlation is recommended.
6. Severe cervical spinal stenosis, previously assessed by MRI
in ___.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is an ___ year old left handed man who presented with
isolated global aphasia similar to a prior MRI-negative episode
in ___ thought to be seizure vs stroke.
Initially, given the exam and the identical nature of his
current aphasia to an MRI-negative spell in ___, seizure
was higher consideration than stroke. However, EEG showed no
epileptiform activity. It showed left greater than right
slowing. Previous EEG showed right greater than left slowing.
However, due to the clinical suspicion for seizure, whether of
unknown etiology or secondary to stroke, we have increased his
Keppra 1000mg BID. Although the initial CT was negative, an MRI
showed a small posterior insular cortex. His stroke risk
factors have been assessed. He is currnetly on Atorvastatin
40mg qday. His last LDL was 66. He has afib and is currently
on Coumadin 2mg with theurapeutic INRs. His INR on discharge
was 3.1. His INR will continue to be trended by his primary
care doctor. We were going to obtain an Echo since his last
Echo was ___, however, the result will not change management.
He will follow up with his outpatient Neurologist.
In regards to pulmonary, Mr. ___ had some wheezing on inital
exam that improved throughout the hospital course. He had a CTA
that showed bronchiectasis visualized in the upper lungs with
apparent new bronchial wall thickening compared to ___, which may represent superimposed infectious/inflammatory
process. Mr. ___ did endorse a recent viral illness.
Additionally, Mr. ___ was found to have pancytopenia of unknown
etiology. The pancytopenia improved over the course of the
hospitalization. He will follow up with his outpatient primary
care doctor.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
You were admitted to the ___ Inpaitient Neurology Service for
an episode of being unable to speak correctly. You had a
similar episode in ___. At that time, the MRI of your
brain was negative for stroke. However, this time, your MRI
showed a stroke in the left side of your brain in a part called
the temporal lobe. We have continued your blood thiner,
Coumadin, to help prevent further strokes. We have also
continued your cholesterol lowering medication, Atorvastatin.
We have also increased your seizure medication because we are
unsure if your previous episode was a seizure and if you had a
seizure preciptated by a stroke this time. Due to the
possibility of seizures, do not drive for the next 6 months.
Please follow up with your primary care doctor and your
neurologist.
Sincerely,
Your ___ Neurology Team

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year old ___ man PMH of HTN, HLD, DM,
presented for HTN and HA from urgent care. He was started on
eplerenone BID and nifedipine at bedtime (given elevated blood
pressures in the evening). He did receive intermittent doses of
nitropaste when SBP>200. BP was better controlled by time of
discharge with SBPs 160s-180s/60s-80s consistently.
ACUTE ISSUES:
====================
# Hypertension:
Patient presented with BP 232/87, no evidence of end organ
disease. He takes carvedilol, lisinopril, and chlorthalidone at
home. He was prescribed spironolactone but self discontinued in
___ due to headaches. He checks his blood pressure at
home irregularly and reports that this degree of hypertension is
new. Goal MAP reduction of 25% in first hour happened
spontaneously in the ED. Target BP ___. He notes having
been on amlodipine in the past with insufficient improvement.
Eplerenone was started BID, but still required nitropaste
intermittently for acutely elevated symptomatic hypertension
(SBP > 220). Eplerenone can take up to 4 weeks to see the full
antihypertensive effect, so nifedipine was started given higher
evening blood pressures. Because the higher BPs were mostly in
the evening the lisinopril dose was split and administered BID.
BP was better controlled by time of discharge with SBPs
160s-180s/60s-80s consistently. Renin and aldosterone labs were
pending on discharge.
# Chest Pain:
Recent stress echo was negative for ischemia with adequate
workload. Trop negative x2 without EKG changes c/f ischemia.
HEART score 4 meriting admission with low ___ score of 85
(0.5% in hospital death). Resolved prior to discharge.
# Headaches:
Chronic and tolerable per patient, with intact neurological
exam and negative CT head. Most likely chronic tension headache.
He was given Tylenol 1 gram TID and counseled to avoid NSAIDs as
outpatient.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
=======================
# L shoulder Pain:
Patient with L shoulder pain with passive and active abduction,
chronic and intermittent in nature. He was given acetaminophen 1
gram TID and lidocaine patch QAM.
# Type 2 Diabetes. Treated with ISS while inpatient with holding
of home oral medications. Will restart home oral diabetic
medications
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
=======================
[ ] Eplerenone 50mg BID started ___, can take up to 4 weeks
to see full antihypertensive effect. Nifedipine 30mg ER started
to decrease blood pressure more rapidly in the interim. It can
be discontinued if eplerenone effect is sufficient.
[ ] Would benefit from follow-up in outpatient ___ clinic
[ ] f/up renin and aldosterone lab results, pending results may
need endocrine follow up.
[ ] consider outpatient sleep study to assess for OSA

Final Report
HISTORY: Shortness breath and cough. Evaluate for pulmonary
embolism.
TECHNIQUE: Axial helical MDCT images were obtained from the
suprasternal
notch to the upper abdomen without contrast and low-dose
radiation at first,
followed by an early arterial phase scanning after the
administration of 100
cc of Omnipaque. Multiplanar reformatted images in coronal and
sagittal axes
were generated. Oblique MIPS were prepared in an independent
work station.
DLP: 304.12
COMPARISON: Comparison is made to CT torso dated ___.
FINDINGS:
CT THORAX: The airways are patent to the subsegmental level.
There is ___
mediastinal, hilar, or axillary lymph node enlargement by CT
size criteria.
Diffuse coronary calcifications are seen. Heart, pericardium,
and great
vessels are within normal limits. ___ hiatal hernia or any other
esophageal
abnormality is present.
Lung windows redemonstrate multiple pulmonary nodules within the
right upper
lobe measuring up to 4 mm (3:38, 39, 64, and 88), all of which
are stable in
size as compared to the most recent prior examination. Regions
of nonspecific
ground-glass airspace opacification are noted within the right
apex and mid
left lower lobe (3:147), and may represent an area of infection
versus
inflammation. Diffuse bronchial wall thickening and mucous
plugging is
compatible with an inflammatory airway process. ___ pleural
effusion or
pneumothorax is present.
CTA THORAX: The aorta and main thoracic vessels are well
opacified. The
aorta contains diffuse atherosclerotic calcifications and
demonstrates normal
caliber throughout the thorax without intramural hematoma or
dissection. The
pulmonary arteries are opacified to the segmental level. There
is ___ filling
defect to suggest pulmonary embolism.
BONES: ___ focal osseous lesions concerning for malignancy are
seen.
Although this study is not designed for assessment of
intra-abdominal
structures, limited views demonstrate mild thickening of the
bilateral adrenal
glands, stable since the prior examination. The visualized solid
organs and
stomach are otherwise unremarkable.
IMPRESSION:
1. ___ evidence of pulmonary embolism.
2. Regions of nonspecific ground-glass opacity with the RUL and
LLL, which
may reflect infection.
3. Diffuse bronchial wall thickening and bilateral mucous
plugging. Findings
likely represent an inflammatory airway process such as COPD or
asthma.
4. Multiple sub-4 mm right upper lobe pulmonary nodules, stable
as compared
to the prior examination. ___ further follow up is required for
these nodules.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ history of bronchiectasis, atopy, prior remote tobacco use
that presents with acute onset of shortness of breath and cough
likely consistent with a bronchiectasis flare +/- early
superimposed pneumonia based on GGO on chest CT vs less likely
hypersensitivity reaction.
# Bronchiectasis flare - pt presents w/ increased sputum
production subacute worsening SOB x ___s acute
worsening SOB and cough x 1 day. afebrile in the ED.
Presentation consistent withi a bronchiectasis flare +/- early
superimposed PNA per CT. also consider allergic bronchopulmonary
aspergillosis. Alt etiology such as acute MI, VTE, acute aortic
syndrome have been r/o'd in the ED. Troponin negative x 2. CTA
with ___ evidence of PE or aortic pathology. pt treated with
methylprednisone, inhalers and bactrim in the ED per pulmonology
recommendations. Bactrim was chosen given that he failed z-pack
as an outpatient and that previous culture had grown gram
positive organisms (staph coverage). His respiratory status
further improved with saline nebulizers, acapella flutter valve,
guaifenesin, lorataine, fluticasone, and albuterol inhaler. He
remained afebrile with ___ systemic signs of infection and ___
leukocytosis. On day of discharge, pt was breathing comfortably
on room air with O2 sat > 98%. Pt was also able to maintain good
ambulatory sats (O2 > 95%). Pt was discharged to complete a
total of 5 day course of 40mg PO prednisone, as well as 10 days
of doxycycline (chosen for gram positive coverage as well as
atypical coverage). Pt was able to provide a sputum culture,
which will need PCP follow up to adjust abx therapy as
appropriate. Pt was also given scripts for inhalers on discharge
to be used as needed.
# Abnormal chest CT with GGO - concerning for early superimposed
PNA per CT. also consider allergic bronchopulmonary
aspergillosis. pt afebrile w/ ___ leukocytosis on admission. Pt
was treatd with bactrim DS BID based on previous sputum culture
with gram positive organism. pt remained stable with ___
systemic signs of infection. He was discharged to complete 10
day course of doxcycline (gram + and atypical coverage). blood
culture ___ growth to date on day of discharge.
# Tachycardia - pt presented w/ HR of 110s-120s in the ED. most
likely ___ frequent albuterol usage w/ combination of dyspnea.
pt did not meet SIRS criteria (___) and is maintaining good BP.
EKG sinus tachycardia with PVCs, and tall P on lead II. ___ signs
of bleeding on exam. PE and aortic etiologies r/o'd per CTA.
His tachycardia resolved (HR of ___ on day of discharge) with
spacing out of albuterol and ___ further intervention.
## Transitional issues
- please f/u on sputum culture results and modify abx rx prn
- if sx persists after treated for possible infection cause, may
benefit from allergy referral
- will need repeat thoracic imaging in 4 weeks

Brief Hospital Course:
___ with hx of ___, sacroilitis, submucosal fibroids p/w 14
days of abdominal pain, nausea, and decreased appetite,
concerning for ___ flare, although CT abdomen not suggestive
of active inflammation.
# Abdominal pain: Pt presented with two weeks of abdominal pain,
mainly in her mid lower abdomen, which she notes is similar to
her previous ___ flare. She also notes she has bilateral
groin and back pain, which often come with her flares. Patient
was tolerating PO. The pain is in the setting of a known trigger
of eating fried/greasy foods. Patient has flares about two -
three times per year. ___ flare is a potential cause for her
abdominal pain. However, there were no CT findings to suggest
acute ___ flare. Of note, in ___, pt had elevated ESR (26)
and CRP (9.5) in the setting of similar episode of abdominal
pain and normal CT abdomen. Gynecological diagnoses are also on
differential, including fibroids, PID (pt has been tx for
gonorrhea and chlamydia in the past), ovarian cysts,
endometriosis. Patient has hx of 1.9cm left ovarian cyst on CT
___, however his cyst was not seen on this admission's CT.
Patient also has known submucosal fibroids and a history of
cervical fibroid that was resected. Endometriosis pain could be
lower abdominal, however expect pain to be cyclical with
menstruation. Ectopic pregnancy less likely due to negative HCG
in ED. Interestingly, pt's pain is improved with BMs, which
could be suggestive of IBS. Viral or bacterial gastroenteritis
less likely given chronicity and lack of fevers, diarrhea,
vomiting. Patient did travel to ___ in ___, however had been
in her normal state of health up until 2 weeks ago.
Interestingly, patient has a history of sacroilitis and
arthralgias which in combination with her IBD, could be
consistent with spondyloarthropathy. On this admission, her CRP
was 18.8, and ESR 29, which are both elevated. Pelvic ultrasound
showed known uterine fibroids, no ovarian masses. Her abdominal
pain is of unclear etiology. Patient discharged with close
follow up with GI and PCP. Patient interested in second opinion
about her ___ diagnosis.
# GERD: Patient endorses increased GERD symptoms especially
during her ___ flare. She endorsed heartburn while in the ED
and chest discomfort. EKG without ischemic changes. Increased
Pantoprazole to Q12H (at home she takes Q24H, and increases to
Q12H when it worsens) and offered tums for immediate relief.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
___ was a pleasure to care for you at ___. You came to us for
abdominal pain. We checked lab work and your inflammatory
markers were slightly elevated, however the CT imaging of your
abdomen was not suggestive of active inflammation. We also did a

fibroids - which could certainly cause abdominal/groin pain.
Given that you were eating and drinking and that your pain was
slightly improving, your primary team felt that you were safe to
be discharged home.
Avoid greasy foods if indeed this triggers abdominal pain. We
encourage you to start a pain diary, as this could be helpful to
better understand your pain and symptoms.
Please follow up with your PCP and also with the GI doctor for ___
second opinion about your abdominal complaints.
Please bring a copy of this work sheet to your outpatient
appointments.
Take care. We wish you the best.

IMPRESSION: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism
Brief Hospital Course:
___ woman with past medical history of SLE (on
plaquenil), Sjogren's syndrome, Lupus nephritis s/p DDRT ___
(on
tac/pred) w/chronic allograft dysfunction (b/l Cr 1.4-1.6),
remote pericarditis, prior DVT no longer on anticoagulation,
recent admission for lightheadedness (___) p/w R-sided
pleuritic chest pain and DOE, likely MSK in etiology and
resolving at discharge.
# Dyspnea on exertion:
# Pleuritic chest pain:
Patient presented with R-sided pleuritic chest pain and DOE
after
recent flight from ___. Onset after plane travel concerning
for PE, but CTA could not be obtained due to a contrast allergy.
She was empirically anticoagulated with heparin in the ED and
admitted. B/l LENIs and V/Q scan were negative, and heparin was
discontinued. CXR without evidence of PNA, and EKG/negative
biomarkers argue against ACS or pericarditis. Low suspicion for
pleuritis secondary to SLE given absence of active joint disease
and normal complement levels and dsDNA. Suspect that her pain is
likely MSK given reproducible tenderness on exam, improving at
the time of discharge. Dsypnea had resolved by the time of
discharge, and ambulatory sats were 100% on RA. She will f/u
with
her PCP ___ ___.
# ESRD s/p DDRT ___:
# Chronic allograft nephropathy:
Cr 1.5 on admission (baseline 1.3-1.5). She was followed by the
renal transplant team while in-house. Tacrolimus levels were
therapeutic. At the transplant team's suggestion, home OTC
melatonin was discontinued on discharge given potential for
interaction with tacrolimus. She was discharged on home
prednisone 5mg daily and tacrolimus 4mg q12h, as well as her
home
acyclovir ppx. F/u in the ___ is scheduled for
___.
# SLE:
# Sjogren's:
Patient has a hx of SLE and Sjogren's, for which she is followed
by rheumatology. There was low suspicion for active
rheumatologic
disease despite mildly elevated CRP of 16. Complement levels and
dsDNA were normal. She was discharged on her home plaquenil and
prednisone and will f/u with rheumatology on ___.
# Borderline microcytic anemia:
Hgb 10.3 on admission, stable at 10.4 on discharge. Baseline
appears to be ___. No e/o active bleeding. Further w/u
deferred
to outpatient setting.
# Hypertension: continued home metoprolol
# Depression/Anxiety: continued home lorazepam QHS, mitrazipine,
ziprasidone, prazosin
# Metabolic acidosis: continued NaHCO3
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
[] F/u ESR pending at discharge
[] Avoid melatonin given potential for immunomodulation with
tacrolimus (per renal transplant team)
[] further w/u of ongoing microcytic anemia (stable this
admission)

Brief Hospital Course:
BRIEF HOSPITAL COURSE
=====================
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman with a history of SLE
complicated by lupus nephritis s/p DDRT ___ now with allograft
CKD (baseline Cr 1.4-1.7), provoked DVTs now off anticoagulation
since ___, HTN, and Sjogren's syndrome who presented to the
ED with pleuritic chest pain concerning for PE, now determined
to be less likely given normal V/Q scan.
While in the hospital, Ms. ___ was closely monitored for her
chest pain and breathing status. During this admission, she had
continuous symptomatic improvement of chest pain and had oxygen
saturation >95% on room air. She was started on heparin drip
given concern of PE. She underwent bilateral lower extremity
ultrasounds that demonstrated no new DVTs. Chest x-ray did not
demonstrate any pneumonia, pulmonary edema, or pleural
effusions. There was persistent globular enlargement of the
cardiac silhouette that has been stable since ___. V/Q scan
demonstrated normal ventilation and perfusion with low
likelihood of PE. Given symptomatic improvement with low concern
for PE, she was taken off of anticoagulation and was deemed
ready for discharge with close outpatient follow-up.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
[ ] Patient may require long term anticoagulation given history
of provoked DVTs and hypercoagulable state in the setting of
SLE. Her outpatient hematologist (Dr. ___ has been notified
of her admission. Of note, patient desiring pregnancy and would
like to stay off of warfarin (which has been her anticoagulant
in the past given CKD).
[ ] Globular enlargement of cardiac silhouette again seen on
chest x-ray this admission. Stable since ___ but may require
outpatient work-up with echocardiogram.
ACUTE ISSUES
============
#Pleuritic chest pain
Patient with history of two provoked DVT ___ and ___ in
the setting of refusing heparin prophylaxis while inpatient had
presented with pleuritic chest pain. Recent cessation of
warfarin in ___ after 6 months of anticoagulation. Given
history of DVTs, patient was admitted for V/Q scan with concern
for PE. CTA was contraindicated given CKD. However, bilateral
LENIs ruled out new DVT (but possible residual proximal DVTs
unable to be seen on ultrasound) and CXR and V/Q scan indicated
low probability of PE. Patient had been started on heparin drip
which was discontinued after normal V/Q scan. Etiology of chest
pain remains unclear but given low suspicion for PE and patient
symptomatically improving and without acute shortness of breath,
tachycardia or desaturations, patient was deemed ready for
discharge home with close follow up.
CHRONIC ISSUES
==============
# Immunosuppression
# ESRD due to lupus nephritis, s/p DDRT
Patient's renal function at baseline with creatinine at 1.5 on

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
It was a privilege taking care of you at ___
___.
WHY WAS I ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL?
===================================
- You were admitted to the hospital because you were having
chest pain that was worse with breathing. We were concerned
that this was due to a blood clot in your lungs (called a
pulmonary embolus) and you were admitted for further evaluation
of the possible blood clot.
WHAT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL?
==========================================
- While you were in the hospital, your breathing and heart were
closely monitored. Your chest pain improved and you were
breathing comfortably on room air.
- You were started on a heparin drip (an anticoagulant) in the
setting of concern for a blood clot in your lungs. The heparin
drip was stopped after imaging showed you likely did not have a
blood clot.
- You had several types of imaging of your chest including a
chest x-ray and a ventilation-perfusion scan (V/Q Scan) that
helped us determine that it was unlikely you had a pulmonary
embolus.
- You also had an ultrasound of your lower extremities and there
were no new blood clots in your legs.
- You were seen by the kidney transplant team and they helped in
making medical decisions in the setting of your transplanted
kidney. They determined that your kidney function had not
changed and no changes were made to your home medications.
- Your symptoms improved and breathing remained stable and were
deemed ready for discharge home.
WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER I LEAVE THE HOSPITAL?
============================================
- Please continue to take all of your medications and follow up
with your doctors at your ___ appointments.
- Weigh yourself every morning, call your doctor if weight goes
up more than 3 lbs.
We wish you all the best!
Sincerely,
Your ___ Care Team

Chief Complaint:
Shortness of breath
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
___ - Emergency aortic valve replacement with a 23 mm ___
___ tricuspid tissue valve for endocarditis.
History of Present Illness:
Ms. ___ is a ___ woman with no significant past
medical history. She was visiting her son and developed sudden
dyspnea at rest. She was asleep in a guest room when she
developed sudden onset shortness of breath. A first aid was
called for respiratory distress, and the patient was tachypneic
and tachycardiac and found to have an oxygen saturation of 76%
on room air. Her husband noted that she had a non-productive
cough that night before going to bed. She smokes, but she denied
any other past medical history. She denies chest pain, but
stated that she could not catch her breath. She denied fever and
stated that she felt well prior to this. She was transported to
the ED and received a nonrebreather.
Of note, she was recently treated at ___ for lyme
meningitis ___ weeks ago. She initially presented with about 3
weeks of neck pain per the family which progressed to retrograde
memory loss and altered mental status. An LP was done at the OSH
which showed signs of lyme infection (+ IgM) in CSF. She also
had a head CT which was reportedly negative. Per records, she
was treated with Vancomycin, Rocephin and acyclovir.
Additionally, the family noted that Mrs. ___ had been under
extreme stress lately, as her son is in the MICU for strep
anginosis.
In the ED she was placed on Bipap and diuresed, but ultimately
required intubation for respiratory support. CTA of chest was
negative for pulmonary embolism. There was moderate pulmonary
edema with bilateral mild to moderate pleural effusions.
She received nebulizers and 60 mg fuorsemide, upon intubation
she became hypotensive with a blood pressure of 77/49.
Norepinephrine was initiated for pressure support.
Echocardiogram overnight demonstrated an estimated ejection
fraction of 40-45% with significant aortic insufficiency and
mild mitral regurgitation. She required additional drips for
pressure support. She was referred to cardiac surgery.

Brief Hospital Course:
___ continued with medical management and was diuresed
with a Lasix drip. She was eventually extubated however, within
___ hours she again became hypoxic requiring intermittent
bipap and IV lasix bolus concerning for continued flash
pulmonary edema. She was subsequently re-intubation. She
developed recurrent fevers and leukocytosis concerning for
infection of unknown source. She was initially started on broad
spectrum antibiotic coverage including vancomycin and cefipime.
She developed diarrhea and c. diff was positive. She was started
on oral Vancomycin and broad spectrum coverage was discontinued.
She had persistent waxing and waning altered mental status
throughout hospital course initially concerning for possible
meningitis given recent history of viral meningitis at outside
hospital. ID was consulted to evaluate for possible residual
lyme meningitis though felt that this had resolved. Head CT
demonstrated no evidence of acute bleed or mass. Her altered
mental status was thought to be secondary to delirium in
hospital setting and delirium precautions taken.
On ___, she decompensated and became acutely short of breath
and profoundly
hypotensive. Cardiac surgery was consulted for consideration of
emergent surgical intervention. She underwent a cardiac
catheterization which demonstrated no significant coronary
artery disease. She was taken emergently to the operating room
and underwent emergency aortic valve replacement with a 23 mm
___ tricuspid tissue valve for endocarditis. Please see
operative note for full details. She tolerated the procedure and
was transferred to the CVICU in stable condition for recovery
and invasive monitoring.
She weaned from sedation, awoke neurologically intact and was
extubated on POD 1. She was weaned from inotropic and
vasopressor support. Beta blocker was initiated and she was
diuresed toward her preoperative weight. She remained
hemodynamically stable and was transferred to the telemetry
floor for further recovery. She was evaluated by the physical
therapy service for assistance with strength and mobility. By
the time of discharge on post-operative day six she was
ambulating freely, the wound was healing, and pain was
controlled with oral analgesics. She was noticed to have slight
serous drainage from the sternal pole without erthema or a
sternal click. This wound should be washed daily and patted dry
and otherwise kept as dry as possible. She was discharged to
___ in good condition with appropriate follow up
instructions.

History of Present Illness:
___ is a ___ year-old female, pmh of anxiety and adhd, who
presents with altered mental status. She is unable to provide a
history, so it is gathered from her boyfriend ___ )
and ___ notes. For the past ___ days, She was having flu-like
symptoms, such as soreness, chills, subjective fevers, nausea
(no
emesis) and bad body aches. Yesterday, they woke up to go to
clinic (both in optometry school). Since she was feeling sick,
he
offered to write an email to her preceptor. Then, she suddenly
began speaking gibberish, but it seemed to him that she thought
she sounded fine. She also had difficultly getting into her
computer, and It took her ___ times to type password into
computer. He is not sure how long the gibberish lasted or if it
resolved, as he went to clinic and She stayed home. This was the
last he saw her. When he came to ___, it looked all the same
(such that she didn't clean up a bowl of soup), but her wallet
and keys were gone.
Per ___ notes, she was found mute in a ___ restaurant, so EMS
was called. In intial psychiatry consult, "Per RN, when
patient
arrived to the ED she remained nonverbal and made only minimal
eye contact she was clutching at clothes and acting afraid or
paranoid. When asked if she speaks ___ , pt nodded, yes."
The
Psychiatry team was concerned for catatonia and recommended a
medical workup. They also reached out for collateral information
from aunt, boyfriend and OSH psychiatrists. Briefly, Aunt's
reported her parents divorced one year prior, denied family
history of psychiatric conditions. Her OSH psychiatrist (Dr
___, ___, has seen her only twice), but
notes (per psychiatry note) " no serious mood problems, no
psychosis, never hospitalized for psych, no h/o self injury; did
report a trauma history - father abusive - no known PTSD". He
prescribed Adderall for adhd and buspar for "low level anxiety".
On my visit, she does not speak. Per further discussion with her
boyfriend, ___, he does not believe she has had a psychiatric
break. He denies depression, anxiety. He notes school as a
stressor for her, and he has never met her parents (planned for
this ___). He denies any events concerning for seizure or any
abnormal movements of her hands/mouth. He denied mood swings,
but
notes she does seem more irritable (which he attributed to
school). Of note, she has received a total of 3 doses of 1 mg IV
Ativan in past 24 hours in ED as recommended by Pysch for
catatonia, but it is unclear if she has had improvement.

Brief Hospital Course:
# Neurology
Patient was admitted to Neurology for altered mental status and
mutism; found on CSF studies to have elevated protein to 142
without CSF pleocytosis. Overall clinical presentation was
concerning for HSV encephalitis. She was started on acyclovir
IV. EEG showed left temporal slowing and discharges (but no
seizures), and MRI showed question of cortical edema vs
artifact. She was also started on keppra 750mg BID. Her
presentation improved significantly and by day 3 of
hospitalization her mental status was back to baseline. CSF was
sent for oligoclonal bands (which were negative) and autoimmune
antibody mediated encephalitis panels, which were sent to ___
and pending at time of discharge. Although HSV PCR was negative
x2 and there was no other revealing positive culture result, it
was thought that given her positive response to treatment and
abnormal MRI brain showing cortical edema, that it was prudent
to treat empirically for HSV encephalitis, however the diagnosis
remains unclear.
# ID
Patient was started on acyclovir IV empirically for concern for
HSV encephalitis. Her HIV, RPR, Lyme serologies, and CSF
bacterial culture were all negative. ID was consulted and also
made other recommendations for microbial serologic testing but
recommended only to continue acyclovir and not to start empiric
coverage for bacterial meningitis (see other pending studies
below). She developed a rash over right forehead which was
vesicular; this was scraped and sent for skin culture. There
were no other cranial nerve findings. She was discharged with
plan for 3 week course of acyclovir with labs to monitor for
renal function and plan to follow up with ID.
# GI/Abd
Upon improvement of her mental status, patient had severe nausea
and vomiting. LFTs were taken and showed acute elevation to ALT
2500 and AST 1700. Viral hepatitis serologies were ordered- on
discharge, HBsAg was negative, HBaAb borderline, and hep A
pending. Abdominal ultrasound was performed which was negative
for structural anatomic changes. LFTs were monitored and
decreased. GI was consulted and recommended further evaluation
for autoimmune-mediated and infiltrative hepatitides with
anti-smooth muscle Ab, AMA, and iron studies. She was discharged
with plan to monitor liver function as an outpatient and to
follow up with Hepatology.
Transitional issues:
[ ] F/U ID studies: anaplasma, ehrlichia, EBV PCR, skin scraping
for herpes virus
[ ] F/U CSF studies: autoimmune encephalitis panel, arbovirus
and ___ encephalitis panel
[ ] F/U hepatitis C ab, AMA, anti-sm muscle Ab
[ ] Patient will be contacted to follow up with Neurology, ID,
and Hepatology (unable to be arranged prior to discharge because
of holiday weekend).
[ ] Discussed with patient the possibility of infectious vs
autoimmune mediated etiology of her symptoms, which is still yet
unclear. Gave strict instructions to patient and her family to
follow up immediately with Neurology if symptoms return for
consideration of alternate diagnoses and need for empiric
treatment.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the hospital for acute change in your
mental status. We performed extensive evaluation including a
brain MRI and EEG, which were abnormal and suggestive of
possible infection which may have been irritating your brain
activity. We started you on antiviral medication as well as an
anti-seizure medication, and you displayed some improvement.
We performed a lumbar puncture, a procedure in which we
extracted cerebrospinal fluid, and the findings were suggestive
of either viral infection or another cause of inflammation. Some
of the tests we sent will take a long time to return. In the
meantime, we will continue to treat you for a viral encephalitis
with IV medications for a total of a 3 week course.
If you develop similar symptoms in the future or any other acute
neurologic deficit (listed below), please seek emergency care
immediately and notify your providers of this recent admission.
It is possible that you may have another underlying process that
requires further evaluation and treatment if this occurs in the
future.
You will follow up in clinic with Neurology, Infectious
Diseases, and Hepatology, which will be arranged within the next
week. It was a pleasure taking care of you. We wish you the
best.
Sincerely,
Your ___ Care Team

Brief Hospital Course:
___ y/o M with h/o ___ disease, afib, presents with
reported lethargy and severe leukocytosis, likely in the setting
of cellulitis.
# Cellulitis: Patient with chronic venous stasis in bilateral
lower extremities, but also with superimposed erythema,
tenderness and induration in the right lower extremity
consistent with cellulitis. Xrays do not show air, so low
concern for necrotizing fasciitis. Patient's leukocytosis,
though remarkably high, likely explained by this cellulitis
given history of 1) acuity of WBC increase from 9 to 44 in one
week, 2) decrease in WBC with vanc/clinda. He was transitioned
from vancomycin/clindamycin to Bactrim/Keflex on hospital day #4
and will complete a 2 week course of antibiotics total. He is
encouraged to continue good skin care with moisturizing lotion
and consider follow up in ___ clinic. Symptoms much
improved at time of discharge.
# Diarrhea: Pt. reported 4 BMs on day prior to discharge. C.
diff was ordered but he had no additional stools prior to
discharge. If diarrhea persists, would have low threshold to
send C. diff given clindamycin use this admission.
# Leukocytosis: Patient with severe leukocytosis to 44 at OSH,
35 here. Differential with 92N, no atypicals, anemia, or
thrombocytopenia concerning for heme malignancy. More likely,
left shift suggest infectious etiology. Treat cellulitis as
above. Ddx also includes C. diff, unclear last antibiotic
course, but has been treated for cellulitis in the past. CXR and
UA at ___ are unremarkable. Head CT with nasopharynx with
fullness on the left and secondary left mastoid and middle ear
opacification, which can be another source of infection, though
patient is asymptomatic. WBC improved with cellulitis tx.
# Altered mental status: AOx3 at baseline, per HCP. Patient
appears to be at baseline today. What was observed by ___
could be progression of ___ dementia vs altered mental
status from infection. CT head without acute intracranial
pathology. MS remained at baseline per family.
# Afib: Normal rate. Unclear etiology. CHADS2=1. Continued ASA
325, diltiazem for rate control.
# CODE: DNR/DNI
# CONTACT: ___ (Sister/HCP) ___
Of note, there was some mention on admission CT of "mild
asymmetry in the nasopharynx with fullness on the left and
secondary left mastoid and middle ear opacification." This can
be investigated further if patient continues to feel unwell.

pleural and mediastinal surfaces.
IMPRESSION: Normal chest radiograph.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ F h/o GERD, asthma and depression p/w epigastric and RUQ
abdominal pain and NBNB emesis.
ACTIVE DIAGNOSES
# RUQ/epigastric abdominal pain and emesis: Differential
diagnosis included viral gastroenteritis (especially in light of
lymphocytic predominance) or functional abdominal pain. Pain
could be exacerbated by GERD; patient does not take home med for
GERD despite history of it. Differential also included peptic
ulcer disease; scant speck of stool was guaiac negative. CT
abd/pelvis, RUQ US, and LFTs were unremarkable, decreasing
suspicion for other etiologies such as: cholecystitis,
pancreatitis (lipase normal), cholangitis. Chlamydia and
Gonorrhea tests were pending at time of discharge. HCG was
negative, excluding ectopic pregnancy. Functional abdominal pain
was the major consideration given lack of abnormalities on labs
and imaging as well as recent psychosocial stressors (namely a
recent altercation with her child's father and the mother of his
other children). Pt was afebrile with stable vital signs.
Abdomen was exquisitely tender to palpation with voluntary
guarding when exam done with patient's attention but when
palpated with stethoscope while talking to the patient she
showed no tenderness.
She was given some IV fluids given anorexia and poor PO intake.
She was ordered for oxycodone PRN pain, pantoprazole,
ondansetron, and maalox/diphenhydramine/lidocaine. She was seen
by Social Work although was not very interactive with the social
worker. She reported feeling safe at home and did not feel
endangered by her children's father. She was discharged with
prescriptions for acetaminophen, ondansetron and pantoprazole.
CHRONIC DIAGNOSES
# Depression: No apparent exacerbation of chronic disease.
Denied SI/HI. Continued citalopram 10mg PO daily and bupropion
150mg PO daily, both of which pt usually takes on non-work days
due to associated drowsiness. ___ consider changing bupropion
to everyday dosing, as it would not be expected to cause
drowsiness.
# Asthma: Pt had non-labored breathing on RA. She was ordered
for albuterol/ipratropium nebs q 6 hrs PRN dyspnea.
# GERD: Pt does not take medicine for GERD at home. Started
pantoprazole as described above.
# ADHD: Pt not on medication at home.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
*Follow up with primary care doctor as necessary
*Patient takes citalopram and bupropion on non-work days due to
sedation. Depression would be better treated by stable
antidepressant regimen. Suggest trial of different regimen to
optimize treatment of depression as an outpatient.
*If pt continues to have problems with abdominal pain in the
future, EGD to assess for peptic ulcer diseasec could be
considered.

Dear Ms. ___,
It was a pleasure taking part in your care at ___
___. As you know, you came to the hospital
due to abdominal pain. A variety of radiographic images and
blood work was done and revealed no abnormalities to explain
your pain. It was suspected that your abdominal pain may have
been due to a viral gastroenteritis or possibly triggered by
recent stressors. You were given medications for pain and
nausea, as well as intravenous fluids due to your lack of
appetite and poor intake of food and drink. Please see the
attached medication list for changes to your home regimen.

Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old female admitted to the acute care service afer being
involved in a MVC. Med-flighted in from scene. Upon admission,
she was made NPO, given intravenous fluids, and underwent
radiographic imaging. She was found to have fractures of the
lateral aspects of the right ___, and 6th ribs. She was
also reported to have a right scapular fracture with mild
distraction near the base of the coracoid. She also sustained
right medial/lat/inferior orbital fracture. Because of her
injuries, she was seen by Orthopedics for the right coracoid
fracture. This was determined to be non-operative and a sling
was recommended for comfort. Plastics was consulted to provide
input into the management of her rigth orbital fracture. She was
reported to have a non-displaced orbital fracture which was
non-operative and sinus precautions were recommended. She did
require suturing of a laceration above her right brow.
Her rib pain was controlled with intravenous analgesia and on HD
#2 converted to oral agents. She has maintained on room air with
an oxygen saturation of 96% on room air and has been encouraged
to use the incentive spirometer. She was introduced to clear
liquids with progression to a regular diet. Her foley catheter
was discontinued on HD #2 and she voided without difficulty.
Her vital signs are stable and she is afebrile. Because of her
questionable loss of consciousness, she was evaluated by
occupational therapy to determine the need for outpatient
cognitive evaluation. Physical therapy was consulted to
instruct patient in the ongoing management of the right scapula
fracture and provided instruction in ROM exercises.
She is preparing for discharge home and has been instructed to
follow-up with Orthopedics, Plastics, and the Acute Care
Service. She will need to have her staples removed by the Acute
Care Service and her sutures removed by the plastic surgery
service in outpatient follow up. She should also work with
outpatient ___ to restore full range of motion in her
shoulder.

Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted to the hospital after you were involved in a
motor vehicle accident. You received rib, facial, and a scapula
fracture. You had a laceration to your right eyelid and
required suturing by the Plastic service. Your pain medicine
was converted to an oral agent. You are now preparing for
discharge home with the following instructions:
* Your injury caused right sided 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 antiinflammatory 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 ).
You also sustained a right orbital wall fracture, please follow
these instructions:
Because of the close relationship between the upper back teeth
and the sinus, a communication between the sinus and the mouth
sometimes results from surgery. This condition has occurred in
your case, which often heals slowly and with difficulty. Certain
precautions will assist healing and we ask that you faithfully
follow these instructions:
1. Take the prescribed medications as directed.
2. Do not forcefully spit for several days.
3. Do not smoke for several days.
4. Do not use straws for several days.
5. Do not forcefully blow your nose for at least 2 weeks, even
though your sinus may feel stuffy or there may be some nasal
drainage.
6. Try not to sneeze; it will cause undesired sinus pressure. If
you must sneeze, keep your mouth open.

Chief Complaint:
Cellulitis/Right foot ulcer
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
___ Bedside Debridement of Right Foot
History of Present Illness:
___ with PMHx of chronic gait instability and venous stasis
ulcers followed in ___ clinic who presents with worsening
ulceration and pain over right heel x3 days. Patient reports
noting new skin lesion over her right heel severl days ago. She
has since had increasing difficulty ambulating and pain over the
area. On day of admission, the lesion 'opened up' and began
draining purulent, foul smelling discharge. She reportedly
slipped off her bed (no headstrike or LOC), and was brought to
___ ED by EMT after she was unable to get back in bed.
There, she was found to have profound leukocytosis, significant
wounds ___ venous stasis on both lower extremities. Started on
Vanc 1250mg IV on arrival. Transferred to ___ ED on ___ for
further management.
In the ED, initial vital signs were: pain ___, T 98.8, HR 92,
BP 134/83, R 20, SpO2 99%/RA. Labs showed: leukocytosis (31, N
94%), Hgb 8.8, platelets 441. Nl Chem 7 and lacate. LFT's
notable for ALP 167 and LDH 307. UA negative. NCHCT and C-spine
CT were unremarkable. Right foot CXR showed no evidence of
osteomyelitis. CT Abdomen/Pelvis showed right leg enlargement
c/w venous stasis, 4.3 cm rim enhancing collection in mid left
thigh (?hematomoa), right inguinal nodes, and ? colitis. Patient
was started on Vancomycin, Zosyn, and Flaygl. She was also given
haloperidol 5 mg and lorazepam 2 mg. Consults were placed to
vascular surgery as well as plastic surgery. Vascular surgery
felt that given size of wounds, would be better served by
plastic surgery; that and the patients pulses were intact.
Plastic surgery examined the patient and felt that the wounds
were improved since last clinic visit, although would recommend
amputation. VS prior to transfer were T 97.8, HR 82, BP 128/77,
RR 18, O2 100%.
Upon arrival to the floor, patient endorses pain along lateral 3
toes on both feet, her R heel and left anterior shin, where she
is having skin breakdown. Also notes sharp abdominal pain around
umbilical region that comes and goes, worse when she bares down.
Otherwise, she denies fevers or chills. No SOB or CP. No cough.
No N/V/D. She is somewhat constipated. Remainder of ROS is
unremarkable.

==IMAGING==
MRI Right Foot With and Without Contrast ___
IMPRESSION: Large ulcer and subcutaneous soft tissue defect
along the posteroinferior aspect of the heel, with the ulcer
extending to the surface of the calcaneus.
Trace edema and enhancement in the subcortical bone along the
posteroinferior calcaneus. This is non-specific and is most
suggestive of reactive changes, secondary to adjoining soft
tissue inflammation/infection. Within this area, a tiny (6 mm)
marrow focus adjacent to the inferior calcaneal spur
demonstrates low T1 signal and the possibility of a tiny focus
of osteomyelitis in this location cannot be entirely excluded.
No other evidence of osteomyelitis.
Degenerative change, edema, and thickening of the proximal
plantar fascia. The possibility of an intra substance tear in
the proximal portion of the lateral band of the plantar fascia
cannot be excluded. Severe atrophy of the abductor digiti
minimi muscle is noted.
Extensive subcutaneous soft tissue edema with enhancement. The
differential includes cellulitis. No focal abscess identified.
Midfoot osteoarthritis.
Diffuse non-specific muscle edema.
Mild posterior tibialis tendinosis and trace tenosynovitis of
several tendons. No tendon tear.
Left Thigh US ___
Left lateral thigh hematoma with removal of 5 cc sanguinous
fluid, sent to microbiology.
Bilateral ___ US ___
1. No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right or left
lower extremity veins, though the right peroneal veins could not
be well visualized.
2. Two hypoechoic collections along the distal left anterior
thigh and distal left lateral thigh measuring up to 4.7 cm,
likely hematomas.
Right foot xray ___
Ulceration overlying the heel. No radiographic evidence of
osteomyelitis.
Left Tib/Fib Xray ___
No radiographic evidence of osteomyelitis.
CT Abd/Pelvis ___
1. Somewhat limited exam secondary to lack of intra-abdominal
fat, without definite acute intra-abdominal process.
2. Apparent wall thickening of the ascending colon potentially
due to
underdistention noting that colitis is not entirely excluded.
3. Asymmetric enlargement of the right leg relative to the left.
This likely reflects known chronic venous stasis. However if
there is concern for venous occlusion, ultrasound study may be
obtained.
4. 4.3 cm rim enhancing collection in the midleft thigh, which
may represent an organizing hematoma, although superimposed
infection cannot be excluded.
5. Severe atherosclerotic disease.
6. Multiple enlarged right inguinal lymph nodes.
7. Cholelithiasis without acute cholecystitis.
CT Head Noncontrast ___
No acute intracranial process.
CT C-spine Noncontract ___
Degenerative and postoperative changes without fracture or new
malalignment.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with PVD and chronic non-healing ___ venous stasis ulcers
followed by vascular/plastics admitted for worsening R calcaneal
ulceration with fall at home in the setting of leukocytosis, now
s/p debridement on ___ and 7-day course (___) of broad
spectrum IV abx (vanc/cef/flagyl).
# Sepsis: Patient presented on admission with leukocytosis with
suspected source (right heel) vs urinary source (UCx
+klebsiella). The rest of her infectious workup was negative.
She completed a 7-day course of empiric vancomycin, cefepime,
and metronidazole on ___ with resolution of her
leukocytosis.
# Cellulitis: Patient presented with a right calcaneal ulcer
that was frankly infected with surrounding cellulitis in the
setting of a leukocytosis to 22 on arrival and her ESR and CRP
were both elevated. She was empirically started on vancomycin,
cefepime, and metronidazole. MRI showed a questionable focus of
osteomyelitis in the right calcaneous. The podiatry team was
consulted and patient underwent bedside debridement of the right
heel on ___. Given no clinically apparent osteomyelitis on
debridement and only small focus of possible osteomyelitis on
MRI, pt treated for skin and soft tissue infection with a 7 day
antibiotic course, from ___. ID recommended
discontinuing antibiotic therapy unless patient is febrile or
develops new cellulitis. On ___, patient had discussion with
team with plan to be discharged to rehab.
# UTI: Patient presented with positive urine culture growing
Klebsiella in the setting of leukocytosis, which resolved
following completion of a 7-day course of broad spectrum
antibiotics with vancomycin/cefepime/metronidazole, and on
discharge was asymptomatic.
# Left anterior shin ulcer: The patient had a left anterior shin
ulcer that had been present for ___ years per her report. She
had been followed by vascular surgery for this issue. In the
hospital, the dermatology consult service was consulted and felt
that she would benefit from a biopsy. The patient, however, did
not wish to have a biopsy done during this hospitalization.
This issue was deferred to outpatient follow up. The patient
was advised that she could call ___ Dermatology to schedule a
clinic appointment.
# Oral Health: #9 chipped and several mandibular teeth chipped
on presentation. Tooth fractures had been present for weeks per
pt's son. Pt was very uncomfortable, said difficult to eat
(however did eat most of her food in the hospital), and she was
concerned about having her dentition addressed in the hospital.
A Panorex scan was ordered. The scan showed multiple broken
down teeth, periapical radiolucencies, and cloudy maxillary
sinuses. A dental consult was deferred given the lack of acute
dental issue. The patient was advised to consult with a dentist
soon after discharge.
# Left thigh hematoma. The pt had a left thigh mass that was
rim enhancing on CT imaging. She had an ultrasound guided
biopsy that showed that the mass was a hematoma. Cultures of
the aspirate were negative.
# Anemia: Her hemoglobin and hematocrit was near recent
baseline. Iron studies were sent. Her anemia was likely due
both to chronic inflammation and iron deficiency.
# Hyperlipidemia: Contined home simvastatin.
# History of TIA: Continued ASA/simvastatin.
# Hypothyroidism: Continued home synthroid .
# Psych: Continued home medications.
# Hypertension: Continued home atenolol.

has been asymptomatic since then until approximately 1 month ago
when she began having worsening dyspnea on exertion, however per
her family they have noticed a decline in her energy and
gradually increasing shortness of breath over the past ___ years
since her diagnosis.
She was told at the time of discovery that she needed aortic
valve replacement surgery, however, at the time she did not want
to have surgery performed as she was concerned about the risks
of the procedure. She has not had any follow up with cardiology
or CTS since, however patient was scheduled for an appointment
with cardiac surgery here tomorrow and thus requested to be
transferred here for further evaulation and treatment.
The current episode began she attempted to go to sleep but
before being able to lay down she experienced acute onset
shortness of breath and wheezing, prompting her husband to call
an ambulance. Per report, EMS found the patient to be tachypneic
at 46 breaths per minute and hypoxic to the ___, as well as
hypertensive to the 200s systolic. She was brought to ___
___ where she received IV lasix diuresis and CPAP with much
symptomatic improvement.
Of note, patient reports that she was recently hospitalized
approximately 2 months ago for an episode of ischemic coliits at
which point all of her cardiac medications were stopped
(amlodipine, lisinopril).
Patient was brought to the ___ ED where CXR was significant
for bilateral infiltrates in hilar distribution suggestive of
acute pulmonary edema and she received an additional 40 IV lasix
x1 and was admitted to the heart failure service.
On the floor, she remains much improved. No current SOB at rest.
She denies fever, chills, cough, unintentional weight loss,
dysuria/change in urinary frequency, change in urine output,
syncope, lower extremity swelling, wheezing, reflux, or
abdominal pain. No syncope, chest pain, or palpitations. No
recent increase in salty food intake or fluid intake, or recent
illnesses or sick contacts.

STUDIES
=======
___ CXR: Vascular congestion and interstitial markings
compatible with interstitial edema. Obscuration of bilateral
costophrenic angles compatible with pleural effusions, although
component of atelectasis or focal consolidation cannot be
excluded.
___ TTE: Mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with
preserved biventricular cavity size and mild global hypokinesis.
Elevated E/e'. Severe aortic stenosis. Mild aortic
regurgitation. Mild pulmonary hypertension. Mild aortic
dilatation.
___ PRE-OP Cardiac catheterization: Coronary angiography:
right dominant
LMCA: normal
LAD: minimal irregularities
LCX: 60% mid
RCA: minimal irregularities
Assessment & Recommendations
1. Moderate mid LCX lesion with no other significant CAD
___ PRE-OP CAROTID US:
Right ICA with <40% stenosis.
Left ICA with <40% stenosis.
___ PRE-OP CXR: Resolved pulmonary edema.
There is residual minimal vascular congestion
Stable cardiomegaly
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with HTN severe AS p/w acute pulmonary edema and associated
hypertensive urgency. Her sxs were c/w flash pulmonary
edema/acute dHF likely secondary to both HTN and severe AS,
resolved entirely with diuresis. She was evaluted by cardiac
surgery and plan for aortic valve replacement in the near
future. Cardiac cath, TTE, carotid US and CXR done as part of
pre-op work-up.
ACTIVE ISSUES
=============
# Flash pulmonary edema/acute diastolic heart failure: likely
secondary to HTN and severe AS. Patient had been off blood
pressure meds for at least 2 months with SBP ranging from
150-180 mmHg at home. This is her first presentation of CHF. At
baseline she has DOE and dizziness with exertion. CXR consistent
with pulmonary edema and patient's acute onset symptoms also
support flash pulmonary edema. Suspicion for pneumonia is low
giving lack of fever, leukocytosis, focal infiltrate or cough.
TTE notable for mild symmetric LV hypertrophy with preserved
biventricular cavity size and mild global hypokinesis. Elevated
E/e', severe AS, mild AR, mild pulmonary HTN and aortic
dilatation. Gently diuresed patient as likely not much total
volume overload, now pt appears euvolemic and aiming for net
even. CXR on day of discharge confirmed resolution of pulmonary
edema. She is being discharged on PO Lasix, imdur for afterload
reduction, and a beta blocker as well as ASA 81 and a statin.
# Aortic stenosis: patient with known severe AS, was recommended
to have surgery in the past but then lost to follow-up. She did
have appointment with cardiac surgery set-up for outpatient
basis, however now evaluated in house. She had a cardiac
catheterization and carotid US prior to discharge as part of
pre-op evaluation. There are multiple outstanding transitional
issues regarding her upcoming surgery, which are detailed below.
# HTN: patient with a history of HTN has been off
anti-hypertensives. On presentation to OSH she was quite
hypertensive (220/120) however in ED here she had a hypotensive
episode after receiving nitro paste from the OSH. Has been
normotensive here. And was slowly started on imdur and
metoprolol which have been well-tolerated, and patient is being
discharged on these new medications.
# Troponinemia: patient with elevated troponin at OSH, elevated
to 0.12 here. EKG with TWIs only. No chest pain. Likely
represents CHF exacerbation rather than NSTEMI.
CHRONIC ISSUES
==============
# Rheumatoid arthritis/PMR: patient on Humira injections q2
weeks outpatient, recently seen in ___ clinic here however her
provider has since left the ___ system and patient is unsure
of who her knew rheumatologist will be. ___ will need to be
stopped prior to surgery, however details of the length of lead
time and post-procedure time before restarting as well as any
other alternate interventions which may be needed in the interim
are unclear. Her PCP has been made aware and an email has been
sent to ___ clinic NP. For now, pt has been asked to
hold her dose as surgery may be scheduled as early as next week.
# Leg cramping: pt states that she has leg cramps at baseline at
home which resolve with her walking or drinking tonic water with
quinine. Pt had leg cramps on admission, resolved with movement.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
-We are unsure of her surgery date so pt will call Dr. ___
office on ___ to check in
-She will call her dentist on ___ to get Dental Clearance
form faxed to Dr. ___
-She may need to hold humira pre-op, we have asked her not to

Chief Complaint:
Shortness of Breath
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
Thoracocentesis on ___ yielded 2.2L of serosanguinous
fluid. Lab analysis showed WBCs and exudative-type fluid.
History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ male with a history of sleep apnea and
hypoxic episodes related to panic attacks, who presents with
several weeks of worsening shortness of breath. His medical
history is significant for multiple recent admissions for
pericarditis/pericardial effusions which developed about 6mo
following a myocardial infarction in ___. Most recently he
presented with atrial fibrillation and pericardial effusion
___ at an OSH, then was transferred to ___. He
underwent transthoracic echo which showed early diastolic
collapse, increased IVC pressures, right atrial and right
ventricular collapse and circumferential effusion. The
pericardial effusion was drained of >1L of bloody fluid. He has
been taking ASA 325mg and colchicine for presumed idiopathic
pericarditis. He was discharged ___ and a follow-up echo
on ___ showed improvement of the pericardial effusion and
a LVEF of >55%.
Since ___ the patient has experienced worsening shortness of
breath, feeling increasingly short of breath if he lies flat and
with walking. He does report a cough that he felt improved
following pericardiocentesis, but now has increased again. These
symptoms prompted an outpatient chest x-ray and echo this
morning. A small circumferential pericardial effusion without
evidence of tamponade was demonstrated on echo; however a
significant left-sided pleural effusion was seen on chest x-ray.
He reports no variation in symptoms with exertion or significant
chest pain to suggest ischemic disease at this time. He has not
been using any oxygen at home and has not been checking his O2
sats. He has not been using his CPAP. He is feeling very
fatigued but denies any symptoms of viral illness (no
rhinorrhea, fever, chills, etc). He reports ___ edema, L>R.
In the ED, initial vitals: 96.9 71 137/70 16 92%.
CXR showed interval development of a large left pleural
effusion.

Interval development of a large left pleural effusion. If there
is history of
recent trauma, hemothorax should be considered. Other causes
include
infection or malignancy and malignancy, but the latter is less
likely given
the short interval time of development.

Obviously chronic mild-to-moderate left pleural effusion with
rounded atelectasis in the left lower lobe. No evidence of
parenchymal or
pleural pathology that could explain the origin of the effusion.
Incomplete inspiration and non-characteristic appearance of the

___ Chest Radiograph:
Stable cardiac silhouette. Increasing left moderate to large
pleural effusion
with associated atelectasis.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ male with a recent history of pericardial
effusion who presented with shortness of breath and hypoxia
likely secondary to a new L pleural effusion.
# Pleural effusion: Mr. ___ presented with a new, large L
pleural effusion which has developed since his last CXR
___ and is likely contributing to his increasing SOB over
this same time period. The effusion was tapped for 2.2L of
serosanguinous fluid on ___, with 1500 WBC, a low hct and
exudative features. Most likely causes for the development of
this exudative effusion in a ___ in the context of mild
eosinophilia include malignancy, rheumatologic causes or
infection, which are also all on the differential for his
recurrent pericarditis (see below). Follow-up chest CT as above
suggested no obvious cause for the effusion. If cytological
analysis and culture of the pleural fluid do not yield an
obvious diagnosis, it may be useful to consider a rheumatologic
work-up as outpatient. RF and ___ on this admission WNL. Fluid
negative for malignant cells, and flow cytometry not consistent
with malignancy.
# Pericarditis: Mr. ___ has had recurrent pericarditis for the
past several months, with 1L of bloody pericardial fluid drained
in ___. Fluid analysis at that time showed no evidence of
malignancy and no obvious infections or rheumatologic causes of
pericarditis were identified. He has been taking colchicine and
ASA as an outpatient. Echo ___ identified only a small
circumferential pericardial effusion with some evidence of
debris. No signs of pericarditis on EKG on admission. He was
continued on his colchicine and ASA during admission. Again it
may be useful to consider rheumatologic work-up as outpatient.
# Non-Q-wave myocardial infarction in ___ without evidence of
CAD on cath. Normal sinus rhtyhm on EKG on admission, no
clinical suggestion of myocardial infarction during admission.
# Afib in the context of pericardial effusion in ___. Patient
in sinus rhythm on admission. Patient was continued on
metoprolol 25mg QDay.
# Sleep apnea for which the patient has home CPAP, which he
doesn't use. Bicarb on admission only slightly elevated at 35.
Transitional Issues:

history of left thalamic infarct (2 weeks ago) with residual
right sided numbness, hypertension, and tobacco dependence (~35
pack year history, quit ___ years ago) who presents to the ___
ED ___ with new left sided numbness.
Regarding her prior stroke, this occurred ___ while she was at
a
wedding in ___. She had been eating unhealthy
foods and drinking alcohol and she awoke on ___, the day
following the wedding, with the sensation that her right arm was
numb. She initially thought she had "slept funny" on her right

brought to the hospital where she was diagnosed with a left
thalamic infarct. Her SBP was found to be in the 200s upon
presentation to the hospital. Stroke was attributed to small
vessel disease. Pt was started on metoprolol and aspirin 81 mg
daily. She stated that she had a normal carotid ultrasound and
echocardiogram. She denied any diagnosis of hyperlipidemia or
diabetes mellitus.
Since the stroke, she has felt well. She was referred by her PCP
to ___ with Dr. ___. Dr. ___ risk factor
reduction and referred pt for a TSH, hemoglobin A1c, and lipid
panel (not checked yet). She has continued to experience
right-sided numbness which has been gradually improving.
On day prior to current ED presentation, pt felt numb in her
bilateral ___ and ___ digits. This spread up the medial arm to
the elbow and she attributed this sensation to typing at work.

MR HEAD W/O CONTRAST; MRA BRAIN W/O CONTRAST; MRA NECK W&W/O
CONTRAST ___: IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of acute infarction. Chronic infarctions in the
left thalamus and right coronal radiata.
2. T2/FLAIR signal hyperintensity in the periventricular,
subcortical, and deep white matter which is nonspecific but may
be seen in the setting of chronic small vessel ischemic disease.
3. No significant aneurysm or vascular malformation. No evidence
of focal
flow-limiting stenosis or vascular occlusion.
CT Head w/o Contrast ___: IMPRESSION:
No evidence for acute intracranial abnormalities. Supratentorial
white matter hypodensities are nonspecific, but compatible with
sequela of chronic small vessel ischemic disease, demyelination,
or inflammation. Please correlate clinically. MRI with
intravenous contrast may be of value, if clinically warranted.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman with a past medical history
of left thalamic infarct (2 weeks ago) with residual right-sided
numbness, hypertension, and history of tobacco use (~35 pack
year history, quit ___ years ago) who presented to the ___ ED
___ with new left-sided numbness.
# Left Hemibody Sensory Change
Her neurologic examination was notable for sensory loss
bilaterally (as pt has known residual sensory deficits from her
prior stroke on the right) with new sensory loss on the left
that is worse compared to the right. Non-contrast head CT and
initial labs were unremarkable. After she was admitted, Ms.
___ had an MRI/A head and neck which showed no evidence of
acute infarction. Chronic infarctions in the left thalamus and
right coronal radiata were noted, along with T2/FLAIR signal
hyperintensity in the periventricular, subcortical, and deep
white matter which likely represent chronic small vessel
ischemic disease. On the MRA, no significant aneurysm or
vascular malformation, and there was no evidence of focal
flow-limiting stenosis or vascular occlusion.
Clinically her new left-sided numbness improved significantly
over a 24 hour period after admission.
Upon checking her chronic stroke risk factors, her LDL was
elevated at 132 and so she was started on atorvastatin 40mg qd.
HBA1c was still pending on discharge.
We recommend increasing aspirin to 325 mg daily. He blood
pressure was elevated up to systolics in 170s and did not appear
to have any effect from metoprol. So, started lisinopril 10mg qd
and discontinued metoprolol.
She should follow up in stroke clinic with Dr. ___ he
is the established Neurologist for Mrs. ___.
Medications on Admission:
Metoprolol 25 BID
Aspirin 80 mg daily
Proventil PRN

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the hospital with symptoms of numbness on
the left side of your body. While in the hospital, you had a CT
of your head performed, which did not show any evidence of a new
stroke. You also had an MRI of your head and neck, which also
showed no evidence of a new stroke or any narrowing of the blood
vessels in your head or neck. We did find that your cholesterol
is high, so we have started you on a medicine called
atorvastatin. Also, your blood pressure was quite high, so we
started you on a medicine called lisinopril.
We have made the following changes to your medications:
START
atorvastatin 40mg daily
lisinopril 10mg daily
INCREASE
aspirin to 325mg daily
STOP
metoprolol
You should follow up with Dr. ___ in stroke
clinic. Please call ___ to schedule. Please bring
copies of your echocardiogram and carotid ultrasound reports.
We wish you the best.

Chief Complaint:
left hemibody numbness
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
Ms. ___ is a ___ year-old right-handed former smoker with
a history of herpes zoster (left V2?), HTN, HLD, and left
thalamic infarct (___) with residual right-sided numbness who
presents with left hemibody numbness.
Ms. ___ was last well on ___ when she was in ___ for
a wedding and she awoke with right hemibody numbness and was
diagnosed with a left thalamic infarct in the setting of SBPs to
the 200s. Her stroke was felt to be in the setting of small
vessel disease and she was started on metoprolol and aspirin
81mg. Per her report, the work-up included a normal
echocardiogram and carotid ultrasound. While her right hemibody
numbness has improved, she still noted 80-90% sensory on the
right-side compared to the left.
Upon return to ___, she was seen by Dr. ___ in neurology
clinic for stroke risk factor stratification (TSH, A1c 5.5, LDL
132).
She was doing well until ___, when she developed left hemibody
numbness that started in her left dorsal hand and medial forearm
and entire left hemibody, lasting less than 24 hours. She was
admitted to ___ overnight for MRI/A showed only chronic left
thalamic and right corona infarctions and evidence of SVID. Her
ASA was increased to 325, atorvastatin 40mg daily was started
for
LDL 132 and her metoprolol was switched to lisinopril for better
BP control. She has continued on these meds and her PCP
increased lisinopril to 40mg this week.
Since hospital discharge, she has had intermittent numbness of
both arms that was disproportionate to her right hemibody
numbness at times. Duration of these episodes is unclear, but
she did feel that sometimes her left hand would get numb after
gripping items.
This morning, she awoke with new, more severe left hemibody
numbness (face, trunk, arm, leg) that she had not experienced
since the prior hospital admission. When she checked her
sensation, she felt "things switched" and "now the left side is
the numb side." She does endorse significant amount of stress
yesterday to meet an IRB deadline at her work. She was working
feverishly until midnight. She guessed that her blood pressure
was quite high. She also brings up that she had shingles in the
past on the left face and mid torso, but this numbness was very
different and not painful.

History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year-old man with a history of HTN and
chronic back pain who presented to OSH with acute on chronic
back pain, received a CTA and found a possible aortic dissection
and admitted to the MICU for aggressive BP control.
Patient reports that his back pain started 2 days prior to
presentation. He notes that he has chronic back pain and walks
with a walker at home, has been taking oxycodone chronically. He
reports that he missed his last two days of Oxycodone and now
presents with acutely worsening back pain. He presented to
___ who evaluated him, noted no fevers or loss of
neuro function and so monitored him for pain control and planned
for DC. Since his pain continued to be poorly controlled
decision made to move towards CTA him for possible dissection
given history of hypertension. CTA was a poor study though
appeared to have possible decending thoracic aortic dissection
so was transferred to ___. He was treated with Nitroprusside
and Esmolol drip for BP control.
Of note the patient reports his baseline back pain is sharp,
stabbing pain in the middle of his back. Pain he is now
experiencing is still localized to mid back though now is a dull
pain ___ on pain scale.
In the ED, initial vitals: 101.8 89 123/68 26 100% on RA. Labs
were remarkable for WBC 12.9. Hct was 36.8 from unknown
baseline. Imaging studies showed MRI without definite epidural
abscess. Vascular surgery was consulted, who reviewed the films
with radiology. They felt that there did not appear to be a
dissection on the CT performed at ___, but given the
suboptimal quality of the scan, the patient's story, his fever,
and his body habitus, that he should be admitted for BP control
and antibiotics. He was continued on Esmolol drip for tight BP
control. Vascular surgery recommended continuing Esmolol drip
with goal BP 90-130s with plan to repeat CTA in the AM. In the
ED he developed a fever to 102 without clear source at this spo
was cultured and MRI spine completed to eval for epidural
abscess.
On transfer, vitals were: 81 126/68 94% Nasal Cannula
On arrival to the MICU, patient is lethargic and minimally
cooperative with exam. Answering questions in short sentences,
keeping eyes closed during exam and uncooperative with neuro
exam. He appers hemodynamically stable with SBP at goal target.
Patient denies difficulty with gait, difficulty with motor
weakness, no loss of bowerl or bladder function

IMPRESSION:
1. Left popliteal deep vein thrombosis. The left peroneal
veins were not visualized and extension into these vessels
cannot be excluded.
2. Limited evaluation of the right lower extremity, however, no
right deep vein thrombosis was visualized.
CXR ___
The patient was extubated in the meantime interval with removal
of the NG
tube. The right PICC line tip is at the level of mid SVC.
Heart size and mediastinum are stable. There is interval
improvement of bibasilar
consolidations with no evidence of new consolidation to suggest
interval
development of ventilation-acquired pneumonia.
MRI Spine ___
Study limited due to lack of intravenous contrast, but there is
no evidence abscess. There is soft tissue and interspinous
ligamentous STIR
hyperintensity at L3-L4, and L4-L5 levels. There is also fluid
within the
bilateral L4-L5 facet joints. Findings could relate to
degenerate changes and possible ligamentous injury, however
without intravenous contrast difficult to completely exclude an
infectious process. There is no definite fluid collection
identified. There is no evidence of discitis osteomyelitis. To
address the ongoing concern of possible infection, we recommend
a repeat study that includes post contrast T1 weighted imaging
only. There is no need to repeat the T2 or STIR imaging.
Lumbar spondylosis, worst at the L4-L5 level where there is a
severe spinal canal narrowing. Also multilevel lumbar spine
neural foraminal narrowing as described above.
Mild cervical and thoracic spondylosis as described above.
CTA Torso ___
No evidence of aortic dissection, aortic aneurysm, or acute
aortic pathology.
CXR ___
FINDINGS: The heart size is upper limits of normal. There is
mild prominence of interstitial markings without overt pulmonary
edema. No definite consolidation is seen. There are no
pneumothoraces. Bony structures are grossly intact.
Knee XRay ___
FINDINGS: There is a right total knee arthroplasty. There are
no signs for hardware-related complications. No periprosthetic
lucencies or fractures are seen. There is no bony destruction.
There is soft tissue swelling about the knee. Lateral view is
suboptimal for evaluation of joint effusion.
MRI T, L, and S spine ___:
Abnormal enhancement surrounding involving the left L5 lamina,
spinous process and facet joint with extension into the left
aspect of the spinal canal where there are two small epidural
collections. Abnormal enhancement surrounds the lumbar thecal
sac and extends superiorly to the mid thoracic spine. This may
represent infectious or inflammatory myositis with small
paraspinal abscesses and an epidural component.
MRI L spine ___:
Increase in size of the epidural abscess and epidural
enhancement since the previous study. Postoperative changes are
seen but there continues to be a small amount of fluid
collection in the posterior soft tissues at that level with
increased fluid in the f left acet joints at L4-5 level. Other
findings as described above.
___ TEE:
The left atrium is dilated. No atrial septal defect is seen by
2D or color Doppler. Overall left ventricular systolic function
is normal (LVEF>55%). The ascending, transverse and descending
thoracic aorta are normal in diameter and free of
atherosclerotic plaque to 37 cm from the incisors. The aortic
valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet
excursion and no aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. No
masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve. No aortic
valve abscess is seen. The mitral valve appears structurally
normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. No mass or vegetation

of 90-130). A repeat CTA was negative for dissection and the
Esmolol drip was discontinued. As a result, thought to be acute
flare of his chronic pain, unrevealing neuro exam, however, pt
did refuse DRE and a full neuro exam on ICU admission. After
admission, blood cxs returned + for GPCs (eventually speciated
into staph aureus). Given bacteremia, there was concern for
epidural abcess/osteomyelitis. MRI of L/T/C spine without
contrast did not show evidence of diskitis/osteomyelitis or
epidural abscess - however recommended MRI w/contrast. Patient
refused x2 to undergo MRI w/ contrast until pain better
controlled. Patient was transferred to medical floor on ___
after esmolol drip was discontinued in ICU. On ___ due to
continued severe back pain, patient was given narcotics, became
obtunded, requiring non-rebreather. Was transferred back to ICU
on ___ for continued pain management and possible intubation
to undergo MRI w/ contrast and TEE to r/o endocarditis. In the
ICU the patient was intubated and underment an MRI that was
notable for epidural collection in the L2-L4 region and
underwent laminectomy ___ with orthopaedics with drainagle
of purlant materail that was a MSSA collection. He will require
6 weeks of nafcillin with day 1 of treatment the drainage on
___. Stop Date: ___ (min 6 weeks)
- Patient should have staples removed on ___ by physician at
___.
# DVT: Patient states that he had DVT a few months ago treated
at ___ with coumadin. Patient has had prolonged
sedentary course given morbid obesity and complicated hospital
course. He reports he became noncompliant with coumadin when his
uncle passed away. Imaging indicates dvt of left popliteal- and
it is unsure if this is old or new. Patient was started on
heparin drip ___ for treatment of DVT and transitioned to
coumadin 4mg daily. Goal INR ___.
- INR on discharge was 2.9 ___ yesterday)
- daily INR should be collected and medications should be
titrated up/down as indicated to reach goal INR
# Hypertension, controlled on multiple antihypertensives: 24
hour blood pressures within normal limits. At home, patient was
on 100mg atenolol daily, 40mg lasix po BID, lisinopril 40mg
daily, nefidipine Cr90mg daily. Patient has had CTA done during
hospital stay and radiologist has confirmed that there is no
evidence of renal artery stenosis. Patient is currently on
atenolol 100mg po daily, clonidine patch ___, lasix
40mg IV daily, lisinopril 40mg qdaily, nefidipine cr 90mg
qdaily. Systolics were elevated to 200s in the MICU but have
been <180 on the wards. Hydralazine po was added upon transfer
to the wards but discontinued on ___. Dry weight is 186.8
(upon admit) and patient is currently at 173kg. Pain needs to be
controlled to decrease risk of elevated blood pressures.
- continue home dose of 40mg lasix po BID, obtain ___ lytes and
replete as indicated
- oupatient workup for refractory hypertension
- daily weights
# Fever, resolved: T of 101.8 in the ED. Patient afebrile 72
hours prior to discharge. Likely secondary to epidural abscesses
s/p laminectomy. Patient continued to intermittently spike
fevers during his hospitalization. Initial exam was remarkable
for back pain raising possibility of epidural abcess/OM; no
other infectious symptoms. Infectious work-up done in ED
returned with blood cxs + GPC (eventually speciated to staph
aureus). Started on Vancomycin. ID was consulted who recommended
a MRI w/ contrast of spine, TEE and a knee xray (which was
negative - given h/o TKR). Portal of entry for bacteremia was
thought to be IVDU versus skin (given findings of dry skin in
___. TTE done on ___ - did not show any significant
vegetations or significant valvular regurgitation, however exam
was limited due to patient's large body habitus. CXR on ___
did not show any focal consolidation. MRI of L/T/C spine
without contrast did not show evidence of diskitis/osteomyelitis
or epidural abscess - however recommended MRI w/contrast.
Patient refused x2 to undergo procedure until pain better
controlled. TEE showed: No evidence of endocarditis. Normal
left ventricular systolic function. MRI w/ contrast showed
epidural abscess seen which extends from L2-L4 level anterior to
the thecal sac. He underwent laminectomy ___ with
orthopaedics with drainage of purlant materail that was a MSSA
collection. He was transitioned to nafcillin and will require 6
weeks of nafcillin with day 1 of treatment, the drainage on
___. See possible PNA below.
# Klebsiella in the sputum: No evidence of ventilator associated
pneumonia on CXR ___. Patient was started on empiric tx cipro
500BID for 7 day course (started on ___ in MICU but cipro was
discontinued on ___ in order to monitor fever curve. Patient
does not have clinical signs of pneumonia such as new cough but
he did have baseline shortness of breath.
- continue to monitor fever curve and order chest CT for better
eval of lungs if patient fevers again
# Hepatitis C, newly diagnosed: Patient has history of IVDU and
his diagnosis was explained to him prior to discharge but he
showed little insight. Hep B vaccine was administered. Patient
had normal LFTs. Per primary care doctor, right upper quadrant
ultrasound was performed earlier this year and found to be
negative for fibrosis. RUQ u/s was not performed during this
hospital visit given recent normal imaging per PCP. AFP is 1.4.
- Hepatitis C viral load is pending
- Hepatitis C genotyping is pending
- RUQ u/s to assess for liver fibrosis
- Referral to ___ clinic should be done if patient has
elevated Hepatitis C viral burden - see below for contact
information
# Hx of opiate use: Pt denies recent drug use, although has IVDU
(last use ___ ago). Pt reported that he was on methadone,
prescribed by Habit ___ clinic at ___ that
follows pts with opiate abuse - He was started on Methadone 3
months ago at a non chronic back pain dose - 85mg PO QD. Given
bacteremia, there was a concern for current IVDU. It was
confirmed with a friend that the patient last used IV drugs on
the morning of admission. He was difficult to extubate in the
setting of the IVDU as his mental status declined and he was
placed on methadone with improvement in his mental status.
# Pain management s/p laminectomy on methadone. Patient states
he has not used drugs in years. Records indicate that patient
was on 85mg methadone daily administered by ___ clinic.
Must monitor breathing closely since patient has had severe
difficulty with breathing when overdosed on narcotic medications
for pain.
- continued methadone 80mg daily in the hospital
- consider referral to pain clinic outpatient
- continue high dose lidocaine patch to be applied to back and
bengay cream
- continue tramadol and oxycodone PRN- transition to long acting
pain medication based on the amount of use of short-acting
oxycodone
# Hypertension, controlled on multiple antihypertensives: 24
hour blood pressures within normal limits. At home, patient was
on 100mg atenolol daily, 40mg lasix po BID, lisinopril 40mg
daily, nefidipine Cr90mg daily. Patient has had CTA done during
hospital stay and radiologist has confirmed that there is no
evidence of renal artery stenosis. Patient is currently on
atenolol 100mg po daily, clonidine patch ___, lasix
40mg IV daily, lisinopril 40mg qdaily, nefidipine cr 90mg
qdaily. Systolics were elevated to 200s in the MICU but have
been <180 here. Hydralazine po was added upon transfer to the
wards but discontinued on ___. Dry weight is 186.8 (upon
admit) and patient is currently at 173kg. Pain needs to be
controlled to decrease risk of elevated blood pressures.
- continue home dose of 40mg lasix po BID
- daily weights
- outpatient workup for refractory hypertension
# Abdominal pain: patient had persistent abdominal pain during
admission with no evidence of rebound, guarding, or other
concerning symptoms. Likely secondary to gas and symptoms had
improved by discharge
- Patient was discharged on simethicone and maalox
# Shortness of breath: DDX includes Pickwickian syndrome, PE,
OSA. Symptoms improved with head of bed elevated so pickwickian
syndrome is likely contributing given morbid obesity. PE is also
probable given findings of DVT and hx of prior DVT
- patient should remain therapeutic on coumadin INR ___
# Diarrhea, resolved: most likely secondary to antibiotics.
Patient reports symptoms immediately afterwards. C diff
negative.
Transitional Issues:
# Epidural abscesses s/p L2-S1 laminectomy
- Patient should have staples removed on ___ by physician at
___.
- He should call ___t ___-
Patient should call to make an appointment with Dr. ___
___. Patient should call to make an appointment
within the next week for a post-op checkup.
# DVT LLE: Please monitor INR daily for goal ___. Patient was
discharged on coumadin 4g daily. He was started on coumadin
recently on ___. Titrate coumadin up or down as indicated.
# Hip imaging: Bone marrow edema along the right medial
acetabulum extending into the right inferior pubic ramus with
surrounding soft tissue edema. The ddx includes an intraosseous
hemangioma, atypical Paget's disease, or possibly atypical
osteomyelitis. The presence of thickened trabeculae is more
suggestive of a chronic process and an intraosseous hemangioma
is therefore considered most likely. Infection superimposed on
an intraosseous hemangioma rremains a consideration. Clinical
correlation to assess for any localized symptoms and follow-up
imaging of this area to confirm stability is recommended.
(shorter term if sympomatic, otherwise mri or ct in ___ months).
# Hepatitis C: Patient was diagnosed with hepatitis C during
admit. We explained the diagnosis but he does not seem to have
much insight. Please discuss this with him further.

Blood cultures ___ negative
Brief Hospital Course:
This is a ___ woman with a history of MS admitted for
N/V/D/abd pain and elevated lipase concerning for pancreatitis,
most likely due to azathioprine use.
# N/V/ABDOMINAL PAIN: This was initially attributed to
pancreatitis, possibly in setting of azathioprine. However, CT
was difficult to interpret and ultrasound without evidence of
obstruction, and she had no history of alcohol use in excess.
Azathioprine was stopped and patient was made NPO and given IVF,
anti-emetics and analgesics. She did not improve rapidly
however. She was seen by GI and underwent endoscopy and MRCP.
These also did not show evidence of an anatomic cause of her
abdominal pain. Ultimately it was thought that there is likely
a functional component, and she was started on hyocsyamine and
buspar as anti-spasmodic agents. She did improve with these
medications to some extent, but continued to have ___ pain at
discharge. She was discharged on a one month supply of both
dicylclomine
(insurance would not cover the hyoscyamine). She was also
discharged with zofran and a higher dose of ativan, as these
were helping with both nausea and anxiety.
Of note, she opted to defer any further testing of the cause of
her pain pending evaluation by her outpatient providers.
At the time of discharge, she was tolerating more food, and
drink and overall seemed improved.
# RELAPSING REMITTING MS: Patient s/p recent flare. Her
azathioprine was stopped due to concern that this medication was
contributing to pancreatitis, and then due to the fact that it
was not affecting her progression of disease. Ms. ___
refused to take Ampyra due to side effects. Patient will
follow-up with neurology as an outpatient.
# ELEVATED LFTS: Chronic and stable. Likely from
azathioprine. Hepatitis serologies were negative.
# UTI: Patient was treated with cipro for 7 days for a
complicated E coli UTI.
Chronic issues
# CHRONIC BACK PAIN: Patient was given ativan and tylenol PRN.
# ANXIETY: Lorazepam was continued. Anxiety did appear to
increase throughout her hospitalization. She was seen by social
work.
# GRAVES DISEASE: Methimazole and levothyroxine were continued
- although she frequently refused.
# DRY EYES: Restasis was held as non-formulary and patient not
using regularly
# OSTEOPOROSIS: Calcium and vitamin D were continued
Transitional issues
- she may require further work up of abdominal symptoms. She
will see her primary doctor next week to discuss with him.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
It was a pleasure taking care of you on this admission. You
came to the hospital because you were having abdominal pain.
Your presentation and labs was possibly consistent with
pancreatitis, but your imaging did not show any evidence of
pancreatitis. We performed endoscopy and MRCP, all of which did
not reveal the cause of the pain. The GI doctors and ___ think
this is probably a functional, not anatomic pain, and should get
better over time with antispasm agents. You were also found to
have a UTI.
We started you on Bentyl (dicyclomine) and buspirone to take for
a one month period. You can discuss further treatment with Dr.
___ Dr. ___ you have symptoms beyond the month.

There is 3 mm leftwards shift of normally midline structures.
Mild effacement
of the right sided sulci in comparison to the left is noted. No
intraparenchymal hemorrhage. No subarachnoid hemorrhage. There
is no
evidence of infarction, edema or mass. Prominence of the
ventricles and sulci
are consistent with age-related cortical volume loss.
Periventricular,
subcortical and deep white matter hypodensities are likely
sequelae of chronic
small vessel ischemic disease.
No osseous abnormalities seen. The paranasal sinuses, mastoid
air cells, and
middle ear cavities are clear. Calcification of bilateral
cavernous portions
of internal carotid arteries are noted. Soft tissue density
within bilateral
external auditory canals is most consistent with cerumen.

regurgitation. Moderate-severe tricuspid regurgitation. Mild
aortic regurgitation. Pulmonary artery systolic hypertension.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___,
the findings are similar.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is an ___ gentleman with a
history of atrial fibrillation/flutter s/p TEE/DCCV
cardioversion c/b heart block/ bradycardia requiring dual
chamber PPM on rivaroxaban, systolic congestive heart failure
(EF ___ in ___, hypertension, and DLBCL s/p R-mini-CHOP
and consolidative ISRT complicated by RUE DVT s/p Lovenox course
who presents with left arm swelling and redness.
# Left UE Swelling/Cellulitis: Given the negative US and CTV,
clot and stenosis are ruled out for the patient. One possibility
would be lymphedema although he has no clear reason to develop
swelling. Per Radiology, no study to evaluate for lymphedema. He
was treated for cellulitis with a 7-day course of antibiotics.
He was given Lasix for diuresis and his swelling improved with
wrapping and elevation.
# Multiple Falls: Patient with several falls while in the
hospital. No head strike. Likely related to deconditioning and
elderly age with medical comorobidities. Orthostatics negative.
___ was consulted who recommended rehab but his family refused
for him to go to rehab. He was discharged home with maximum
services.
# Acute on Chronic Systolic Congestive Heart Failure: Last TTE
with LVEF ___ in ___. On exam he has bilateral lower
extremity pitting edema as well as his right upper extremity. No
edema of the left upper extremity. On imaging he has significant
bilateral pleural effusions. Albumin and urinalysis
unremarkable. Patient is not compliant with urine monitoring so
difficult to track I/Os. Repeat TTE shows LVEF 20% with global
systolic dysfunction, similar to previous study. He was
diuressed but suffered ___ so Lasix was held. Currently satting
well on RA and denies respiratory complaints.
# Acute on Chronic Kidney Disease: Baseline Cr 1.2-1.3 with bump
to 2.0. Likely secondary to diuresis. His creatinine improved
with holding diuresis and his Cr at discharge was 1.6. His
lisinopril was held at time of discharge.
# Atrial Fibrillation/Flutter: Per cards/EP consult, he has
paroxysmal AF, sinus node dysfunction, and episode of AF with
heart bock and junctional escape during his prolonged admission
almost 2 months ago during which he had a dual chamber PPM
implanted. He currently appears to be in afib/aflutter. His
pacemaker was interrogated by EP who noted normal pacer function
with acceptable lead measurements and battery status.
Programming changes switched mode to DDIR 60, upper sensor
rate 110, paced AV delay 150 ms, PVARP 300. His rivaroxban was
held due to ___ but restarted at time of discharge given
improvement in renal function. His metoprolol dose was
uptitrated however his heart rate continue to be in the 100s
(improved from 120-130s on admission).
# Hypertension: Held home lisinopril due to ___ and ___ blood
pressures.
# Hyperlipidema: Continued home atorvastatin.

hepatic lobe hyperenhancing lesion, likely represents a
hemangioma. No intra-abdominal trauma.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ was admitted to the Acute Care Surgery team and
transferred to the Trauma ICU for close monitoring which
included hourly neuro checks. Repeat CT head imaging in the next
day showed resolution of the right SDH indicating it was likely
artifact rather than a real lesion. His occipital condyle
fracture was managed non-operatively and he is recommended to be
in a hard cervical collar for at least six weeks. Regarding his
spine fractures he was instructed to wear a TLSO brace when out
of bed and he was fitted for this brace.
His clavicle fracture was evaluated by orthopedics and was
nonoperative - he will wear a sling and non weight bear on the
left arm.
Ophthalmology was consulted regarding the periorbital hematomas
which were also determined to be managed conservatively with
outpatient follow up.
On HD 2 he was AAOx3 and with stable imaging no longer requiring
frequent neuro checks and was transferred to the floor.
Once transferred to the floor he received his brace and was
evaluated by Physical and Occupational therapy and was cleared
for home once family/caregiver training for brace use was
provided.
He did experience intermittent nausea which appeared to be
associated with Dilaudid. Once these were stopped the nausea
resolved and his pain was well controlled on prn Oxycodone
Ultram and Tylenol standing.
At time of discharge he was able to ambulate independently with
his TLSO brace and cervical collar in place.
He was discharged to home with friends and will have follow up
with Orthopedics, Neurosurgery, Ortho Spine a with a new PCP
that was set up for him here at ___.

symptoms gradually improved with bowel rest, and when she was
able to tolerate oral intake, she was discharged home with a
plan to complete an outpatient MRCP for further evaluation of
her pancreas, as well as follow-up in pancreas clinic. The day
after discharge (___) she called GI clinic complaining of
feeling warm and flushed upon standing and persistent abdominal
pain that had not really improved compared with prior. She
noted that her heart rate increased from the ___ while supine to
the 120s with standing. She was able to tolerate oral intake
during this time. She called again on ___ with severe pain and
was referred to the ED for further evaluation. She tells me she
has never had pain
like this before. She notes that she continued to have pain when
she was discharged but it has become progressively worse. The
pain is described as aching and cramping, in the upper abdomen
mostly on the left side, radiating around to the back. It is
difficult to parse out her description of abdominal pain from
back pain, which she says she has been longstanding. She notes
that the pain is worse when
she lies flat but better with standing. She notes that when she
goes from lying to standing the back of her head feels "hot" and
she feels like she might lose consciousness, but she does not
note dizziness. This has been going on for the past several
weeks. She denies any N&V, diarrhea, BRBPR, or dysuria. Her last
bowel movement was this morning, was softer than normal but not
loose. In the ED, initial VS were 97.6 90 99/68 18 100% RA.
Exam was notable for LUQ tenderness. Labs were notable for
normal WBC (5.5 with normal diff); Hgb 14.8 (though it was in
the ___
range after fluid resuscitation during her last admission), and
normal plts. BUN/Cr ___ (baseline Cr 0.5) and lytes WNL
except for HCO3 20. Alk phos minimally elevated at 123, and
Lipase 885
(up from 81 during last admission), other LFTs WNL. Coags WNL,
UA negative, Lactate 1.1, and triglycerides were pending. CXR
without evidence of pneumonia, and EKG without evidence of
ischemia. She received 1L NS, 1L LR, Hydromorphone 0.5 mg IV,
Gabapentin 300 mg PO and was admitted for further workup. VS
prior to transfer were 98.6 67 131/57 18 99% RA.
On arrival to the floor, the patient reports ongoing abdominal
pain and back pain but otherwise has no complaints.

MRCP
Normal appearing pancreas with no evidence of pancreatitis. No
bile duct
dilatation or cholelithiasis.
Gastric emptying study
IMPRESSION: Delayed gastric emptying with 15.8% residual at 4
hours (normal: <10%).
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with a PMH of complex regional pain syndrome, history of
chronic pancreatitis (unclear etiology), anxiety and other
issues, recently discharged from ___ after hospitalization
from ___ with abdominal pain of unclear etiology,
now re-admitted with same pain, and elevated lipase.
Admitted with abdominal and back pain. She underwent laboratory
testing significant for elevated lipase of 885. Labs also showed
transiently elevated alkaline phosphatase, however,
supplementary testing revealed a normal GGT that suggests no
biliary obstruction. Furthermore, MRCP revealed a normal
appearing pancreas without evidence of pancreatitis and no bile
duct dilatation or cholelithiasis. Lipase can be elevated in a
multitude of conditions including gastric motility disorder such
as gastroparesis. A gastric emptying study was obtained as
recommended by gastroenterology that revealed delayed gastric
emptying with 15.8% residual at 4 hours (normal: <10%). This may
be reversible if secondary to medication (opiates, for example).
Symptoms are somewhat consistent with this diagnosis, however,
there is also a neuromuscular quality. We recommended a trial of
dietary modification (smaller more frequent meals as explained
by nutrition consultation) and trial of reglan with goal to
taper to lowest possible dose (or discontinue entirely). Patient
was instructed to follow with her PCP (within 1 week),
gastroenterologist (as scheduled), and pain specialist as soon
as possible. The pain specialist should review chronic illness
and recent illness as well as medications. If your symptoms
continue despite these interventions further investigation into
another cause may be appropriate. 5 doses of 2.5 mg morphine
solution was prescribed to help patient manage severe
breakthrough pain episodes (often occurring at night).
Patient should also review warm/flushed feeling and postural
tachycardia with pain specialist as we feel this may be an
autonomic dysfunction component of CRPS or medication side
effect (vs withdrawal).
Patient advised to follow with PCP on incidental finding on CXR,
reported as "New subcentimeter radiodensities project over the
right lung apex and superior and inferior to the distal left
clavicle on AP view, which may be external to the patient.".
There was concern these abornmalities were external to the
patient, but nothing was identified when examined (unclear
temporal relationship to study, however). Patient should likely
have repeat imaging in a few weeks.
Hospital course, assessment, and discharge plans discussed with
patient and husband who expressed understanding and agreed with
discharge.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
___ were admitted with abdominal and back pain. ___ underwent
laboratory testing significant for elevated lipase of 885. Labs
also showed transiently elevated alkaline phosphatase, however,
supplementary testing revealed a normal GGT that suggests no
biliary obstruction. Furthermore, MRCP revealed a normal
appearing pancreas without evidence of pancreatitis and no bile
duct dilatation or cholelithiasis (gallstone disease). As we
discussed, lipase can be elevated in a multitude of conditions
including gastric motility disorder such as gastroparesis. A
gastric emptying study revealed delayed gastric emptying with
15.8% residual at 4 hours (normal:
<10%). As we reported, this can be spontaneous and chronic or
may be reversible if due to an outside trigger like medication
(opiates for example). Your symptoms are somewhat consistent
with this diagnosis. We recommend trial of dietary modification
(smaller more frequent meals as explained by nutritionist) and
trial of reglan with goal to taper to lowest possible dose (or
discontinue entirely). ___ should follow with your PCP (within 1
week), gastroenterologist (within ___ weeks), and pain
specialist as soon as possible. Your pain specialist should
review medications and possible side effect profile. If your
symptoms continue despite these interventions further
investigation into another cause may be appropriate.
It was a pleasure taking care of ___ and we wish ___ the best,
Your ___ hospitalist team

require ___ intervention.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman with known critical aortic
stenosis, CKD, CAD s/p CABG, and hypothyroidism who was
initially admitted to the Orthopaedic Surgery Trauma service
after a fall in which she sustained a right intertrochanteric
hip fracture while helping her husband get dressed. Her hospital
course was significant for ___ cardiac arrest and
hypotension and later a GI bleeding episode requiring ICU stay.
During the orthopedic initial course: The patient was taken to
the Operating Room on ___ ___ to undergo open
reduction and internal fixation of the right hip with a
Trochanteric Fixation Nail. Her intraoperative course was
complicated by an episode of hypotension during the anesthesia
induction period. Please see Operative Report for full details.
Post-operatively, the patient was taken to the recovery room
before being transferred to the floor.
On POD#1, she was transfused 2 units of packed red blood cells
for acute blood loss anemia. She was also noted to be confused
that day, and the Geriatrics service was consulted for acute
mental status changes. A CT scan of the head was recommended to
evaluate for an acute bleed; this study was found to be negative
for an acute intracranial process, but did show age-related
involution and chronic small vessel ischemic disease.
The patient's mental status improved over the next few days.
She continued to work with Physical Therapy and made steady
progress. She was transfused 2 units of pRBCs on ___, again
for acute blood loss anemia, as well as 1 unit of FFP.
On the morning of POD#5, the patient was noted to become acutely
hypotensive to ___ in the setting of appearing pale and
complaining of lightheadedness, dizziness, and palpitations.
Her hematocrit had decreased from 29.1 the day before to 24.3;
upon being rechecked 3 hours later, the hematocrit had decreased
to 21.7. The patient was ordered for STAT packed red blood cell
transfusion, and in the interim she received crystalloid for
volume resuscitation. A Trigger was called, and STAT EKG, CXR,
and cardiac enzymes were ordered. The Medicine and Cardiology
services were contacted and presented urgently to see the
patient. The ICU was also contacted given concern for acute
blood loss anemia. Her right (operative) thigh remained soft
and did not appear to be full or acutely swollen.
The patient was transferred to the T/SICU, shortly after which
time she produced a large amount of melena of approximately 1
liter. The GI service was consulted urgently, and EGD was
performed that was significant for severe erosive gastritis and
a duodenal ulcer. Please see report for full details. She was
then transferred to the MICU for further evaluation and
management of her GI bleed.
MICU & Floor Course:
# GIB: Upon admission to the MICU she underwent EGD, which
showed erosive esophagitis and multiple duodenal ulcers, which
were not intervened upon. Her Lovenox was discontinued and she
was placed on Heparin SQ and pneumoboots for DVT ppx. She was
transfused a total of 2 units pRBCs over the course of 48 hours.
Her HCT remained stable and she was called out to the floor. She
initially did well on the floor, but subsequently had several
large melanotic BMs and a significant HCT drop 25-->22. She was
then readmittted to the MICU, where she received another 4 units
pRBCs with HCT ___. Repeat EGD showed slowly bleeding
duodenal ulcer and she had epi injection and hemostatic clips
placed x2 to the site of bleeding. She remained hemodynamically
stable on PPI gtt. On ___ she had IVC filter placed because she
could not be anticoagulated and is at very high risk for DVT.
Her HCTs were trended and she was called back out to the floor.
She had no further melanotic stools and her hematocrits were
stable on the floor. She remained off of DVT prophylaxis due to
her severe GI bleeding during this admission.
# s/p Cardiac Arrest: Shortly after induction in the OR pt
becmae hypotensive requiring compressions and EPI with immediate
RSC. Her arrest was likely related to anestehsia induced
hypotension given prompt resolution with CPR/EPI. She remained
hemodynamically stable after these events, including throughout
her hospital medicine team course.
# Right hip fracture: The patient is weight-bearing as tolerated
per the orthopedics service. She will follow up with them in
clinic for further evaluation and for removal of her incisional
staples. She required planned ___ rehabilitation on
discharge for ongoing therapy, but per report of the ___ team,
she was making the desired progress in her ambulation and ADLs
during her inpatient course.
# Resolved encephalopathy/confusion: These resolved symptoms
earlier in her course were attributed to poor perfusion from
active bleed and hypotension. Also with risk of recent delirium,
likely related to surgery and ICU stay. Her mental status
improved throughout her hospital course and she was awake,
alert, oriented, and appropriate on discharge.
# CKD: Pt's Cr is currently at baseline, likely hypertensive
nephropathy. It remained stable throughout her hospital course.
# Thrombocytopenia: Pt has been chronically thrombocytopenic
since ___ per out records. Platelets 140 on admission to the
MICU. Unclear cause, though would monitor for consumptive
process given recent bleed.
# CAD s/p CABG/AVR: Currently euvolemic, denies CP. She was
restarted on her home metoprolol dose prior to discharge, but
the other antihypertensives were held as the patient was not
hypertensive. She was continued on rosuvastatin.
# Hypothyroidism: The patient recevied levothyroxine.
Transitional Issues:
# Hypertension/medication changes: The patient will be gradually
weaned back on to her home antihypertensive regimen as required
based on her blood pressure. These recommendations were outlined
in the discharge paperwork to assist the rehab facility in
determining which agents would be most prudent to add back at
which timing.
# Hypokalemia: The patient has slightly low potassium. She was
encouraged to eat foods high in potassium.

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ was admitted to the urology service from the
emergency department with left ureteral nephrolithiasis
management and underwent cystoscopy with left ureteral stent
placement. She received gentamicin and clindamycin in the OR.
She tolerated the procedure well and recovered in the PACU
before transfer to the general surgical floor. See the dictated
operative note for full details. Overnight, the patient was
hydrated with intravenous fluids and received appropriate
perioperative prophylactic antibiotics with gentamicin and
ampicillin. On POD1, the patient spiked a fever to 102 in the
afternoon, and antibiotic coverage was switched to vanc/zosyn at
the recommendation of the antibiotic stewardship service. The
following day, infectious disease was curbsided and she was
switched to ciprofloxacin. She did have one additional episode
of fever to 102.5 on cipro, and a followup ultrasound was
obtained; this showed stent in good position with no abscesses.
Her initial UCx grew mixed flora with <10k of each enterococcus
and GNRs. Though she remained afebrile throughout the evening
of ___, her WBC on ___ was 18, and as such ID recommended
switching from cipro to unasyn. At discharge, patients pain was
controlled with oral pain medications, tolerating regular diet,
ambulating without assistance, and voiding without difficulty.
Ms. ___ was explicitly advised to follow up as directed as
the indwelling ureteral stent must be removed and or exchanged.
She will return for definitive stone management and will
complete a full course of Augmentin as directed.

Discharge Diagnosis:
Left proximal ureteral stone, bacteremia w/ fever, urinary tract
infection
Discharge Condition:
Mental Status: Clear and coherent.
Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
-You can expect to see occasional blood in your urine and to
possibly experience some urgency and frequency over the next
month; this may be related to the passage of stone fragments or
the indwelling ureteral stent.
-The kidney stone may still be in the process of passing.
-You may experience some pain associated with spasm of your
ureter.; This is normal. Take the narcotic pain medication as
prescribed if additional pain relief is needed.
-Ureteral stents MUST be removed or exchanged and therefore it
is IMPERATIVE that you follow-up as directed.
-Do not lift anything heavier than a phone book (10 pounds)
-You may continue to periodically see small amounts of blood in
your urine--this is normal and will gradually improve
-Resume your pre-admission/home medications EXCEPT as noted. You

doctor. HOLD ASPIRIN and aspirin containing products for one
week unless otherwise advised.
-IBUPROFEN (the ingredient of Advil, Motrin, etc.) may be taken
even though you may also be taking Tylenol/Acetaminophen. You
may alternate these medications for pain control. For pain
control, try TYLENOL FIRST, then ibuprofen, and then take the
narcotic pain medication as prescribed if additional pain relief
is needed.
-Ibuprofen should always be taken with food. Please discontinue
taking and notify your doctor should you develop blood in your
stool (dark, tarry stools)
-You MAY be discharged home with a medication called PYRIDIUM
that will help with the "burning" pain you may experience when
voiding. This medication may turn your urine bright orange.
-Colace has been prescribed to avoid post surgical constipation
and constipation related to narcotic pain medication.
Discontinue if loose stool or diarrhea develops. Colace is a
stool softener, NOT a laxative, and available over the counter.

RADIOLOGY
___ Chest xray
No acute cardiopulmonary process.
___ renal transplant u/s
Transplanted kidney is seen in the right lower quadrant
measuring
13.8 cm. Corticomedullary architecture is normal. There is no
hydronephrosis. No stones are identified. The kidney
demonstrates normal vascularity on color flow; however, Doppler
examination is not performed. No perinephric fluid collection
is identified. Partially distended bladder is grossly
unremarkable.
CT abd/pelvis with contrast ___
The lung bases are clear. The visualized heart and pericardium
are
unremarkable. The liver enhances homogeneously. There is
minimal
intrahepatic biliary duct dilatation which may be seen in
patients status post cholecystectomy as is the case in this
patient. The portal vein is patent. The pancreas, spleen, and
adrenal glands are within normal limits. The native kidneys are
atrophic, compatible with known history of chronic kidney
disease. The transplant kidney is seen in the anterior right
hemipelvis. There are multiple areas of decreased contrast
uptake, with loss of corticomedullary differentiation as in
image 2:54. Also in interpolar region of the kidney there is a
large triangular region of hypoenhancement extending to the
cortex which is also compatible with pyelonephritis. A 6 mm
cyst is noted in the posterior aspect of the interpolar region
(2:65), too small to characterize but likely benign. There is
no evidence of hydronephrosis or nephrolithiasis. The small and
large bowel are unremarkable, without wall thickening or
dilatation to suggest obstruction. The appendix is seen and is
not inflamed. There is no retroperitoneal or mesenteric
lymphadenopathy by CT size criteria. The aorta is ___
and the main ___ vessels are grossly patent. There
is no ascites, abdominal free air or abdominal wall hernia.
PELVIC CT: For description of the transplanted kidney, please
refer to
abdomen section of this report. The urinary bladder is
unremarkable. The uterus and adnexa are within normal limits.
A dropped surgical clip is noted the ___ (2:69). The
sigmoid and rectum are within normal limits. There is no pelvic
wall or inguinal lymphadenopathy. The origin of the arterial
supply of the transplanted kidney in the right common iliac
artery is grossly patent. No pelvic free fluid is identified.
OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: There are no lytic or blastic lesions
concerning for
malignancy.
Chest xray ___
The left PICC line extends to the lower portion of the SVC. No
acute cardiopulmonary disease.
Brief Hospital Course:
ASSESSMENT AND PLAN: This is a ___ yo woman with ESRD of unclear
etiology s/p renal transplant in ___ with no history of renal
stones, retention or UTI now with recurrent UTI symptoms 1 day
after completing a course of abx concerning for nidus of
infection.
# pyelonephritis: Patient with recurrent pyelonephritis
presenting with symptoms including dysuria, graft pain, fever
and malaise. She had recently completed a 14 day course of oral
ciprofloxacin after 4 days of IV cefepime in house, but her
symptoms recurred 1 day after stopping the medication suggesting
a nidus for infection vs failure of po antibiotics. ID was
consulted who recommended treatment with full course of IV
antibiotics with presumed failure of PO. Microbiology revealed
new cephalosporin resistant ESBL organism (ecoli) and she was
started on meropenem 500mg IV q6 with resolution of all
complaints. CT abd/pelvis with contrast and renal u/s confirmed
pyelonephritis. Plan for ___ weeks of IV abx via PICC line with
plan for outpatient ID transplant clinic f/u and likely
reimaging of graft after completion of abx course. Blood
cultures no growth to date at time of DC summary. Counseled on
___ voiding to minimize recurrent UTI.

findings are similar.
CXR ___
There are small bilateral pleural effusions, larger on the left,
with associated atelectasis. Superiorly, the lungs are clear.
There is enlargement of the cardiac silhouette with a
configuration raising concern for underlying pericardial
effusion. No acute osseous abnormalities.
IMPRESSION:
Bilateral pleural effusions. Enlargement of the cardiac
silhouette with a configuration raising concern for underlying
pericardial effusion.
Echocardiogram ___
The left atrium is normal in size. The estimated right atrial
pressure is ___ mmHg. Left ventricular wall thicknesses are
normal. The left ventricular cavity size is normal. Overall left
ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF>65%). The mitral
valve appears structurally normal with trivial mitral
regurgitation. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic
hypertension. There is a moderate sized pericardial effusion (2
cm). No right atrial or right ventricular diastolic collapse is
seen. There are no echocardiographic signs of tamponade.
IMPRESSION: Moderate pericardial effusion, largest seen adjacent
to the left ventricular posterior wall, with no
echocardiographic signs of tamponade. High normal left
ventricular systolic function.
Cardiac catheterization ___
Baseline Hemodynamics
RA 5, RVSP 35, PA 35/___, PCW 9
CI 3.5, CO 6.3, PVR 1.4 ___ or 115 dynes-sec/cm5
There was a preserved x and y descent. The filling pressures
were not elevated and were not equalized. The cardiac output was
elevated.
Preprocedure echocardiography in the catheterization laboratory
shows the effusion to be <1 cm.
Impressions:
1. There was no evidence for hemodynamic compromise from the
pericardial effusion.
2. The effusion is too small to safely tap based on
echocardiographic imaging.
Brief Hospital Course:
This is a ___ year old woman from ___ with well-controlled HIV
on HAART and hypertension presenting with anemia,
weakness/fatigue, recent febrile illness, and pericardial
effusion that was not present 3 weeks earlier.
# Pericardial effusion: No tamponade physiology. Initial pulsus
paradoxus of 5. She has HIV which would put her at risk of TB
illnesses but she is well-controlled with an undetectable HIV
VL. Given fevers and tachycardia with weakness, thyroid disorder
could explain this, however TSH on ___ was normal (1.4).
Patient looks too well for a purulent bacterial pericarditis. No
eosinophilia to suggest a parasitic etiology or other
hypereosinophilic process. ? autoimmune etiology. No family
history or personal history of arthritic or rheumatologic
condition. Clinical presentation suggestive of an inflammatory
or infectious process with recent fever, arthralgias, myalgias,
elevated hs-CRP. Negative infectious ___ to date. Normal
eGFR with trace proteinuria not consistent with uremia or
nephrotic syndrome, but may reflect underlying inflammatory
state. No obvious malignancy. Highly positive ___ raises the
possibility of systemic lupus erythematous. Could be "typical"
viral/idiopathic pericarditis, but she has not improved with
NSAID therapy. The initial plan was for a diagnostic
pericardiocentesis once a CCU or CVICU bed became available to
manage a pericardial drain, but bedside echocardiogram in the
cardiac catheterization laboratory showed decreased size of
pericardial effusion, increasing markedly the risk of a
complication if removal of pericardial fluid attempted. Right
heart catheterization clearly showed no evidence of tamponade
physiology, so pericardiocentesis was not undertaken. She was
empirically started on prednisone and colchicine (for
presumptive pericarditis and possibly lupus) and referred for
outpatient rheumatology evaluation.
# Anemia: Unclear etiology. Recent tests of iron stores and B12
ok (B12 low normal). Hemolysis ruled out given normal TBili and
elevated haptoglobin. Reticulocyte count inappropriately low,
which may be related to the same process causing her pericardial
effusion.
# HIV: has been stable and compliant
-resend HIV Viral load and CD4 count
-Continue Complera (ordered as Truvada and Rilpivirine)
# Hypertension: Continued home medications. Effective
contraception is essental while the patient is on teratogenic
agents including ACE-inhibitors.
Transitional issues:
-recommend ___/ possible rheumatologic disease
-continued on HIV regimen
-Discharged on prednisone for 2 weeks with taper to be designed
by outpatient team
-Discharged on colchicine 0.6 mg BID in addition to NSAIDs

Discharge Instructions:
Ms. ___,
You were admitted because you weren't feeling well, had some
chest pain and were found to have fluid around your heart by
ultrasound. We attempted to drain the fluid but found that there
was very little there. We decided to treat you aggressively for
a condition called pericarditis which is an inflammation of the
lining around the heart. We are concerned that this may be
caused by an auto-immune condition called systemic lupus
erythematosus, but confirmation labs are pending. We recommend
that you followup with your PCP and rheumatology.
New medications:
colchicine 0.6mg BID for three months
prednisone 20mg daily for two weeks. Talk to Dr. ___
refilling this medicine or tapering it off slowly after the 2
week period.
Continue the naproxen you have been taking, always take it with
food. You will also follow up with your primary care doctor in
the next week.
Be well,
Your ___ care team

___ CXR:
FINDINGS: Comparison is made to prior radiographs from ___. Heart size is within normal limits. There is minimal
atelectasis at the left lung base. There is no focal
consolidation, pleural effusions or signs for acute pulmonary
edema. No pneumothoraces are identified.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year old man with HgbSS disease, recurrent
vasoocclusive crises, history of priapism, chronic hep C (viral
load undetectable at ___ in ___ and polysubstance abuse who
presented to ___ with acute onset low back pain consistent
with vasoocclusive crisis.
Active diagnoses:
#Vasoocclusive crises: He was admitted for a 1 day history of
severe lower back pain in the setting of a Hemoglobin SS disease
(sickle cell disease). Smear was suggestive of active sickling
and hemolysis making the cause of his pain likely an acute pain
crisis. Pain was limited to the R paraspinal area of the lumbar
spine and there was no evidence of midline lumbar spine
involvement (no tenderness to palpation). There was no evidence
of priapism (he has a prior Hx of priapism). Treatment
consisted of pain control and IVFs with ___ normal saline. Pain
was adequately controlled per the patient and by HD#2 and the
pain had returned to his baseline. He was actually treated with
less than his home regimen of oxycodone. He also received 1 u
pRBCs on HD #1 which likely contributed to his improvement. His
hemoglobin at discharge was 7.5. This is within his historical
range for hemoglobin at discharge from ___ in the
past few months. He should have a follow up CBC on ___ in
___ clinic. Home folate and hydroxyurea were continued.
#Hypoxemia: In the late morning on hospital day #1 he was found
to have O2 sats to the mid-80s on room air. His saturation
quickly improved to >95% on 2L of O2. On further auscultation he
appeared to have decreased breath sounds and dullness to
percussion at the R lung base. However, a CXR was done and no
major consolidation was noted. The etiology of his hypoxemia
remains unclear, though it was most likely related to
hypoventilation as he was very somnolent on hospital day #1.
Acute chest crisis (ACS) was unlikely given his normal CXR and
lack of chest pain or shortness of breath. On the day of
discharge he was 94% on room air and his lungs were clear on
examination.
#Hemoglobin SS disease/Macrocytic Anemia: On initial
presentation to the ED (___) his Hct was 23.3. The following
morning (___), his Hct was noted to have dropped to 20.8,
though after significant IV fluid. His anemia was likely due to
a hemolysis from sickle cell disease, as confirmed by labs and
peripheral smear. His bilirubin was elevated (6.4. total),
haptoglobin level decreased (<5), LDH elevated (612) and
reticulocyte was increased (12.8), as expected with a hemolytic
anemia. He was transfused with 1 unit of pRBCs. On repeat Hct he
was 23.1. He should have outpatient CBC done on ___ in
___ clinic.
#Somnolence: Upon admission to the floor (HD #1) he was noted to
have significant somnolence, often appearing to doze off during
history taking and physical exam. This was thought to be due to
overmedicating with pain medications and so his oxycodone and
hydromorphone doses were reduced. It was also thought that he
may have ingested other substances prior to admission, including
long acting oxycodone, which he has at home. He has a history of
substance abuse and was noted to have ingested cocaine this
weekend. Tox screening from the ED was negative though it did
not test for opiates and is unreliable for certain
benzodiazepines. He did not produce a urine sample for testing
for methadone and other CNS depressants. Given his return to
normal mental status on HD#2 it is highly likely that his period
of AMS was due to overmedication. He was counseled to avoid
excessive narcotic use and combinations with other drugs. He was
prescribed a bowel regimen given his chronic opiate use.
Chronic Diagnoses:
#Chronic Hepatitis C: Possibly resolved. Hep C antibody positive
___. Viral load negative at ___ in ___, though
it is unclear if he was treated or cleared the infection
himself. This is related to blood transfusions for Sickle Cell
Disease, per patient and chart review. He denies prior IV drug
use. Could consider repeating viral load or clarifying treatment
with patient to ensure no longer has active disease that would
require treatment.
#Polysubstance abuse: He reported that he had used cocaine a day
or two prior to admission - this is an issue that his outpatient
hematologist has spoken with him about before and which will
need further outpatient workup as it is likely an exacerbating
factor for his underlying sickle cell disease. He was counseled
to avoid excessive narcotic use and combinations with other
drugs. He was prescribed a bowel regimen given his chronic
opiate use.
Transitional Issues:
-repeat CBC in 2 weeks to evaluate Hgb/Hct
-consider down-titration of opiates given somnolence when
admitted on less than home doses of oxycodone
-set up outpatient PCP, currently ___ NP
managing his care, though he stated he was getting a new PCP
-___ repeating HCV viral load or clarifying treatment with
patient to ensure no longer has active disease that would
require treatment.

with IV fluids, pain medications, and were given 1 unit of
blood.
When you go home you should take your home medications as
prescribed. You should take Tylenol (max 3 grams per day) for
ongoing pain. We made a follow up appointment with ___
at ___. As has been discussed before, cocaine use puts
you at significant risk for health problems, including sickle
cell crises.
Additionally, you have a history of exposure to hepatitis C. If
you have not been treated, you should discuss treatment with
your hematologist or new primary care doctor because new
treatments are available.

Brief Hospital Course:
The patient presented to the emergency department and was
evaluated by the orthopedic surgery team. The patient was found
to have a right femoral neck fracture and was admitted to the
orthopedic surgery service. The patient was taken to the
operating room on ___ for a right hip hemiarthroplasty, which
the patient tolerated well. For full details of the procedure
please see the separately dictated operative report. The patient
was taken from the OR to the PACU in stable condition and after
satisfactory recovery from anesthesia was transferred to the
floor. The patient was initially given IV fluids and IV pain
medications, and progressed to a regular diet and oral
medications by POD#1. The patient was given ___
antibiotics and anticoagulation per routine. The patient's home
medications were continued throughout this hospitalization. The
patient worked with ___ who determined that discharge to rehab
was appropriate. The ___ hospital course was otherwise
unremarkable.
At the time of discharge the patient's pain was well controlled
with oral medications, incisions were clean/dry/intact, and the
patient was voiding/moving bowels spontaneously. The patient is
WBAT RLE with no hip precautions, and will be discharged on
lovenox for DVT prophylaxis. The patient will follow up with Dr.
___ routine. A thorough discussion was had with the
patient regarding the diagnosis and expected post-discharge
course including reasons to call the office or return to the
hospital, and all questions were answered. The patient was also
given written instructions concerning precautionary instructions
and the appropriate follow-up care. The patient expressed
readiness for discharge.

CT, she has had these prior and is being monitored yearly with
CT chest scans with thoracic surgery. Therefore, given that no
fevers, shortness of breath, and only transient chest pain,
antibiotics were held. ___ negative of her right lower
extremity. CT Abdomen with wall thickening of the pylorus and
proximal duodenum which is the likely source of her pain with
inflammation possibly from recent steroids. In speaking with
Sister ___, she states that Sister ___ has had two
deaths in her family recently and has been stressed so also
likely a component of anxiety as well. She was placed on a PPI
PO BID for two weeks.
#chronic HFpEF

suggests a normal left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP less
than 12mmHg).
Normal right ventricular cavity size with normal free wall
motion. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) is
normal. The aortic sinus diameter is normal for gender with a
normal ascending
aorta diameter for gender. The aortic valve leaflets (?#) are
mildly thickened. There is no aortic valve stenosis. There is no
aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve leaflets appear
structurally normal with no
mitral valve prolapse. There is trivial mitral regurgitation.
The pulmonic valve leaflets are normal. The tricuspid valve
leaflets appear structurally normal. There is physiologic
tricuspid regurgitation. The
pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be estimated. There
is no pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with

=================================
[] MRI L-spine demonstrated severe L3-L4 disc herniation and
spinal stenosis. He did not have weakness or other signs of
neurologic deficits, and so may benefit from outpatient
neurology to help determine time-frame for intervention, if
indicated
[] Home furosemide held given normal biventricular systolic
function on TTE and intravascular euvolemia clinically
suggesting against heart failure; peripheral edema treated with
TEDs stockings
[] Consider restarting home HCTZ held initially due to ___
[] Repeat TTE in ___ years to evaluate mildly thickened AV
leaflets
[] Consider repeating MRI C-spine as outpatient given motion
degraded study here
[] Obtain EMG/NCS of bilateral lower extremity to evaluate poor
proprioception
[] Consider optometry referral for decreased vision in R eye
OTHER ISSUES:

BRIEF HOSPITAL COURSE
=================================
___ male with a history of diabetes, COPD, congestive
heart failure, chronic lower extremity pain, ? CAD, and
schizophrenia presenting with chief complaint of general body
pain, admitted for NSTEMI. He was ruled out for NSTEMI with
negative troponins and unchanged EKG. His chronic pain and
weakness were worked up for reversible factors and was negative
for metabolic factors, however on MRI was seen to have L3-L4
spinal stenosis. He does not have any acute symptoms of focal
weakness, incontinence of parathesias requiring acute
intervention and will be discharged to rehab for conditioning.
ACUTE ISSUES:
================
#Chest pain
#H/o CAD, unknown interventions
#CHF
#Lower extremity edema
Patient initially presented with chest pounding without other
symptoms, atypical for angina, EKG without evidence of ischemia,
and flat troponins. Given his prior history of CAD, MI, CHF, he
was admitted for concern for NSTEMI, but likely was type 2
causing troponin leak. ___, he had brief chest pain radiating
down his arm found to be arm pain radiating from his neck.
Though low concern for ischemia, repeated EKG and troponins,
which were unchanged. TTE showed normal EF, no wall motion
abnormalities. Lipid panel with elevated triglycerides (though
questionable statin adherence). Home aspirin, atenolol,
atorvastatin were continued. Given two doses of furosemide
___ for symptomatic treatment of his leg edema, however,
his home furosemide will be held on discharge given TTE results
without indication of congestive heart failure and his current
euvolemia. Overall, we think his ongoing arm pain is likely due
to cervical stenosis as further commented below.
#General body pain
#Upper extremity pain
#Lower extremity pain
#Difficulty ambulating
Patient reported chronic pain since spine surgery ___ years ago
and recent falls causing worsened pain. This seems to be chronic
problem due to his known cervical stenosis likely with a
component of deconditioning. His metabolic workup was normal
(CRP, TSH, B12), x-ray of C spine did not show any acute changes
but could not comment specifically on nerve impingement due to
post-surgical changes. Labs for workup of PMR, myopathy (ESR,
RPR, aldolase) were negative. Neurology was consulted for his
weakness and recommended repeat imaging. MRI C-spine and L-spine
were repeated on day of discharge however, likely a motion
degraded study but showed significant disc bulge at L3-L4
causing mod-severe spinal stenosis with bilateral neuroforaminal
narrowing, and cervical MRI was non-diagnostic due to motion.
Given clinical exam without focal weakness, saddle anesthesia or
bowel/urine incontinence, there was no acute indication for any
intervention this admission and will to follow up with neurology
as an outpatient for further management. Neurology raised
concerns that bilateral ___ pain may be due to DVT given risk
factor of nonambulatory status. Wells Score for DVT is 1 which
gives him a moderate risk. D-Dimer on admission was negative
which effectively rules out DVT risk. His home pain medications
were continued, and oxycodone prn was given for severe pain as
he has been prescribed it previously as an outpatient. Physical
therapy was consulted and recommended discharge to rehab.
#Vertigo, resolved
#Blurry vision
New complaints of dizziness and blurry vision on ___. HINTS
exam negative. Neurology was consulted. Vertigo is likely
peripheral given intermittent symptoms as well however, patient
with multiple CVA risk factors so possibility of central cause
is still there. CTA head and neck without any for any
vertebrobasilar insufficiency or other CVA signs. He was started
on meclizine 12.5mg BID with good effect.
#T2DM
#Hyperglycemia
A1c 10.6%. ___ was consulted to assist with insulin titration
and diabetes education. Home oral agents including glipizide,
metformin were held and liraglutide was held as nonformulary. He
will restart home GlipiZIDE 5 mg PO DAILY, MetFORMIN
(Glucophage) 1000 mg PO BID, liraglutide 0.6 mg/0.1 mL (18 mg/3
mL) subcutaneous QAM on discharge. His insulin was up-titrated
to glargine 67U QHS, Humalog 10U QAC.
___, resolved
Cr elevated to 1.3 on admission from unknown baseline. It
improved to 1.0 on repeat labs and was trended and remained
stable. We think he may have been dry due to diuretics on
admission.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
===============
#Schizophrenia
Per psychiatry consult in ED, there was no concern for acute
decompensation at that time. Continued home aripiprazole.
#COPD
Continued home Loratadine, Fluticasone-Salmeterol Diskus
(100/50)
#Chronic constipation
Continued home bowel regimen and as needed enemas while
inpatient.
#GERD
Continued home Omeprazole.

Brief Hospital Course:
ASSESSMENT & PLAN: ___ year old ___ Speaking F hx of htn,
IDDM, HPL, p/w 2 day hx of pleuritic CP and 1 week hx of urinary
sx
#Chest Pain-The patient was admitted with ___ pleuritic chest
pain. She was ruled out for ACS with negative troponins and EKG
showed no ischemic changes. She had an elevated D-dimer, but was
ruled out for PE with a negative CTA. Her CXR was normal making
underlying pneunmonia or pneumothorax unlikely. The patient's
chest pain was reproducible on exam and was likely
musculoskeletal. Her pain was controlled with toradol, and her
chest pain completely resolved on HD 2.
# Pyelonephritis- The patient presented with a one day history
of urinary urgency, frequency and dysuria, left flank pain,
leukocytosis of 14,and UA with positive nitrites, no leuks, 3
RBC, and 8 WBC. Her symptoms were felt to be most consistent
with pylenonephritis. She received Levofloxacin and Macrobid in
the ED and was transitoned to ciprofloxacin while on the floor.
Her symptoms got better on HD 2, and she was discharged home on
ciprofloxacin 500mg BID to complete a 14 day course. She was
also sent home on Tylenol 1gm TID for control of her left flank
pain.
# HTN- The patient's Blood pressures were elevated at 160s-200s
systolic in the context of not taking her home dose of
lisinopril for the week prior to admission. On the floor she was
restarted on her home dose of lisinopril 20mg daily, and
required an additional 25mg PO hydralazine. On HD 2 the
patient's blood pressure were better controlled with Systolic
blood pressures in the 130s. She was discharged and given a
script for her home dose of 20mg lisinopril daily.

Brief Hospital Course:
___ is an ___ yo man with PMHx of afib (not on
anticoagulation for bleeding complications), recent cardiac cath
for ST changes found to have non-occlusive CAD, CKD and EtOH
cirrhosis who presented for difficulty producing and
comprehending speech and R arm clumsiness. His sx resolved
within 20 mins, making TIA the most likely diagnosis upon
admission. After collecting more collateral information and
imagining, we felt that this event was more likely due to aging
and sequelae of microvascular disease rather than a
thromboembolic event.
# NEURO: he was started on a heparin gtt on arrival given the
likely embolic nature of the TIA to the L MCA territory. We
decreased his ASA from 325mg to 81mg while on the heparin gtt.
However, the heparin gtt was then stopped because his PTT became
supratherapeutic on ___. He remained on aspirin 81 and stopped
the heparin. After collecting more collateral from pt family
members and home nursing, our suspicion for embolic stroke was
greatly decreased. However, we restarted him on low dose of
coumadin with asa bridge. We restarted coumadin given his afib
and underlying risk factors for thromboembolic event after
discussion with his PCP and consultation with hematology.
# CARDS: while here we initially cut his home dose lasix in
half, but continued his home dose metoprolol. We decreased his
ASA dose above, but on discharge he went home on asa 81,
coumadin 2, and normal dose lasix. He had an echo while here,
which showed IMPRESSION: Mild focal LV systolic dysfunction.
Mild mitral regurgitation, likely due to leaflet tethering. Mild
aortic regurgitation. Biatrial enlargement.
# ENDO: His HgA1C was 5.3, LDL was 127 so we continued his home
dose simvastatin. He was put on an insulin sliding scale while
here to maintain euglycemia.

1. Cirrhotic liver with apparent portal vein thrombosis and
markedly
increased arterial blood supply. No focal liver masses are seen.
2. Several liver cysts, possibly peribiliary cysts as well as
some mild
intrahepatic bile duct dilatation is noted.
3. Doppler shows portal vein thrombosis and patent hepatic veins
and IVC.
4. Soft tissue mass in the region of the pancreatic tail,
slightly increased compared to CT of ___.
EGD report ___:
The biliary tree, cystic duct, and gallbladder were opacified.
The CBD measured 8 mm. The cystic duct and CBD overlapped making
delineation difficult. There appeared to be several filling
defects in the cystic duct and a large 18 mm stone in the
gallbladder. There were no definitive filling defects in the
CBD. The intra-hepatic bile ducts demonstrated diffuse pruning
likely secondary to patients known cirrhosis. A limited
sphincterotomy was performed in the 12 o'clock position using a
sphincterotome over an existing guidewire. Balloon sweep x3 was
performed with extraction of a small amount of debris.
Brief Hospital Course:
Primary Reason for Hospitalization:
___ year old male with a history of valvular atrial fibrillation
on coumadin, EtOH Cirrhosis complicated by portal hypertension,
TIAs and s/p TKA of LLE, initially admitted to the orthopedics
service for management of septic arthritis then transferred to
medicine service for management of confusion, dysarthria, ARF
and supratherapeutic INR.
# Hepatic Encephalopathy: On transfer pt had worsening confusion
with hallucinations. History of TIAs and A.fib was concerning
for additional TIA but he was therapeutic on coumadin and head
CT showed no acute change. Given his concurrent rise in
bilirubin and new asterixis on exam, his AMS was felt most c/w
hepatic encephalopathy, likely exacerbated by narcotic pain
medications and infection. RUQ U/S showed no portal vein
thrombus or ascites. Narcotic medications were discontinued and
he was started on aggressive lactulose. His encephalopathy
gradually resolved and on discharge he was AAOX3 and had no
asterixis.
# Cirrhosis: C/b by encephalopathy during hospitalization. Pt
has h/o EtOH cirrhosis s/p portocaval shunting in 1970s. No
known h/o SBP or prior h/o hepatic encephalopathy, was not on
lactulose as an outpatient. Acute decompensation felt most
likely ___ infection, recent surgery and narcotic pain
medication with TIPS predisposes patient to developing HE. RUQ
US completed as above. Hepatology was consulted for further
management, and there was initial concern that biliary
obstruction could be contributing to his acute decompensation
since ERCP from ___ showed CBD stone that was never removed.
However he had no abdominal pain to suggest acute cholangitis.
His liver function and encephalopathy gradually improved
withlactulose, treatment of infection, and discontinuation of
narcotic medications.
# Acute on chronic renal failure: Pt developed acute on chronic
renal failure with creat gradually increasing to 2.8 from
baseline 1.8-2.0. Initially concerning for HRS in setting of
worsening LFTs, however FeUrea suggested intrinsic renal
failure. He also developed a peripheral eosinophilia, which was
felt most c/w acute interstitial nephritis. IV nafcillin was
switched to IV vancomycin, and his creat gradually improved
without steroids. On discharge his creat had improved to 1.5.
# L Knee Septic Arthritis: Stable s/p washout on ___, wound
cultures grew STAPHYLOCOCCUS LUGDUNENSIS, thought likely
bacteremic seeding s/p podiatric procedure. Was initially on IV
nafcillin, switched to IV vancomycin due to concern for AIN as
above. He should complete a 6 week course of antibiotics (will
be completed on ___. He is scheduled to f/u in the
Infectious Disease ___ clinic. Weekly labs including CBC
w/diff, BUN/Creat, ESR, CRP, and Vanco Trough should be drawn
with results faxed to Infectious disease R.Ns. at ___. All questions regarding outpatient antibiotics should
be directed to the infectious disease R.Ns. at ___ or
to on call MD in when clinic is closed. He should also follow
up in ___ clinic for surgical wound check one week after
d/c.
# L Knee Hemarthrosis: Pt's Hct gradually downtrended and he
required RBC transfusion (5 units total). He was noted to have
worsening L knee effusion and ecchymoses, felt most likely to be
source of bleed. He was guaiac negative. His knee was wrapped
with ACE bandage and ice was applied TID. His Hct stabilized
and L knee effusion improved.
# Atrial Fibrillation: Chronic, stable on Coumadin, rate
controlled with home Metoprolol. CHADS2 score of 5 extremely
high risk for stroke, particularly given recent TIA in ___.
He was switched from coumadin to IV heparin sliding scale due to
need for procedures including knee washout and ERCP. He was
restarted on coumadin on ___, INR on discharge was 1.9 so
heparin drip discontinued. He will need continued monitoring of
his INR with goal ___. If he is subtherapeutic, he should be
bridged with IV heparin.
# Urinary retention: The patient developed urinary retention
with 1000cc of retained urine and had a foley placed. The
patient underwent voiding trial, but failed with 600cc of urine
in the bladder so the foley was replaced on ___. Subsequent
voiding trial should be attempted ___. If repeat voiding
trial fails the patient may need to be referred to urology.
# CAD: Recent cath with non-occlusive CAD to 40-50% stenosis.
Continued Aspirin 81 mg PO/NG DAILY, Metoprolol Tartrate 25 mg
PO/NG BID, Simvastatin 20 mg PO/NG QHS.
# HTN: Chronic, stable on home Metoprolol Tartrate 25 mg PO/NG
BID. Would benefit from ACE inhibitor therapy given his chronic
systolic CHF, but this was deferred during hospitalization due
to acute renal failure.
# CHF: Chronic, Systolic CHF with LVEF 35-40%, ischemic related,
well compensated currently ___ Class I based on history prior
to surgery. Continued Metoprolol as above. Patient would benefit
from an ACE-I and should be started after resolution of ARF.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
- Medication changes: started IV vancomycin (will need 6 week
course, to be completed on ___, started tylenol and tramadol
for knee pain, reduced allopurinol to 100mg daily
- Has f/u scheduled in ___ clinic for wound check and
staple removal

directed to the infectious disease R.Ns. at ___ or to
on call MD in when clinic is closed.
- His coumadin was restarted on ___ with heparin bridge,

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ with a history of atrial fibrillation on
coumadin, EtOH cirrhosis complicated by portal hypertension,
TIAs and s/p TKA of LLE, septic arthritis s/p washout ___,
discharged to rehab on ___, presents back to the hospital s/p
fall with new left hip fracture, s/p arthoplasty of left femoral
neck, course complicated by hypotnesion, UTI, atrial
fibrillation, and supertherapuetic INR.
Active Issues:
# Surgical Repair of Left femoral neck fracture: S/p mechanical
fall. He underwent hemiarthroplasty of the affected hip with
1300cc of blood loss and rec'd a unit of blood and platelets in
the OR. He was relatively hypotensive in the PACU requiring
moderate pressor support while on propofol which was weaned
following extubation. He was monitored overnight in the MICU
without any significant events and called back out to the floor.
The orthopedic service continued to follow the wound. A wound
vac was placed by the team on ___. It did not drain any fluid
and wound vac was removed on ___. Per ortho, staples should be
removed on post - op day 14, 7 days from discharge. An
appointment should be made for him to follow - up in the ___
clinic in 2 weeks (phone number in discharge -planning).
# Hypotension: Once patient was transferred back to the floor,
he had several episodes of transient asymptomatic hypotension to
SBPs 60 - 70s. The first episode was on ___. At this point,
his Hct was stable and there was no evidence of acute bleed.
Patient was orthostatic with ambulation. Both the orthostasis
and the hypotension resolved with 1 L bolus NS. At this point
in time, both his metoprolol and tamsulosin were held.
Metoprolol was restarted on ___ once BPs had stabilized and
uptitrated for control of atrial fibrillation while tamsulosin
continued to be held. On the AM of ___, patient again had a
hypotensive episode to SBPs in the ___, asymptomatic which
resolved with 1 L NS bolus. At this point, he had a low grade
temp to 100.4 and was mildly confused. Urinalysis returned
positive and patient was started on IV ceftriaxone for presumed
UTI, urine cultures pending at time of discharge. He had no
further hypotensive episodes. Still unclear if etiology
dehydration versus infection, likely combination of both.
# Urinary Tract infection: As described above, patient had a
hypotensive episode on AM of ___ associated with confusion and
low grade fever. Urinalysis showed + leuk esterase, 14 WBCs, few
bacteria, thus, he was started on 1 g IV ceftriaxone q24 for
treatment of complicated UTI. He currently has an indwelling
foley catheter to treat urinary retention (see below). His
urine cultures were pending at the time of discharge.
# Confusion: Beginning on the AM of ___, patient began to have
short intermittent periods of confusion, but would be quickly
reoriented. Thought to be secondary to urinary tract infection.
On day of discharge, patient was still have brief periods of
confusion, but much less frequent, and again, was able to be
reoriented.
# Urinary Retention and BPH: Patient with long history of BPH
and urinary retention treated with tamsulosin. Tamsulosin was
held following hypotensive episode on ___ and had not yet been
retstarted. Patient failed voiding trial on ___ and foley
placed while off tamsulosin. No that his blood pressures have
normalized, plan should be to restart tamsulosin, discontinue
foley, and give patient another voiding trial, especially given
UTI as above.
# Atrial Fibrillation: Patient has chronic atrial fibrillation,
rate controlled on metoprolol succinate 50 once a day.
Metoprolol was discontinued when patient became hypotensive as
above. Once patient's blood pressures stabilized, his heart
rates returned to ___ 120s-130s. Metorpolol tartrate was started
on ___ and uptitrated to the current dose of 37.5 mg TID. His
rates have now stabilized at ___ metoprolol can be
uptitrated as needed at ___. Anticoagulation as below.
# Elevated INR. Patient's INR was 6.4 on admission. He was
given vitamin K IV 2mg x 2 for reversal. His INR trended down
pre-op. Received one dose of warfarin following repair, INR rose
to 5.1, and was given vitamin K for reversal to prevent post-op
hemorrhage. INR trended down to 2.1 on ___, thus coumadin was
restarted at 1 mg once a day, which he was continued on through
discharge. INR 2.7 on day of discharge.
# Syncope/Fall: Patient states that fall morning prior to
admission was purely mechanical and he remembered the entire
episode. On the contrary, at rehab, patient was noted to
syncopized, be unresponsive, and then arousable after
stimulation. He had just eaten, so unlikely was hypoglycemic,
has not had problems with hypoxia. Staff noted pulse of 83,
irregular, so not in RVR or bradycardic. As patient had just
eaten and gotten up, could have vasovagaled. Likely also an
element of orthostatic hypotension per above. Patient had no
further syncopal episodes while in house. Please place patient
on fall precuations at rehab as he poses a significant fall
risk.
# L Knee Septic Arthritis: S/p washout on ___, wound cultures
grew STAPHYLOCOCCUS ___, thought likely bacteremic
seeding s/p podiatric procedure. Was initially on IV nafcillin,
switched to IV vancomycin due to concern for AIN as above. He
is scheduled for a 6 week course of vancomycin to finish ___.
He followed in the Infectious Disease ___ clinic. He remained
on vancomycin at a dose of 750mg q48h; trough of 18 on ___ so
remained on same dose.
# OPAT Labs while on Vancomycin:
Patient needs Weekly:
CBC w/diff
BUN/Ct
ESR CRP and
Vanco Trough
All laboratory results should be faxed to Infectious disease
R.Ns. at ___
All questions regarding outpatient antibiotics should be
directed
to the infectious disease R.Ns. at ___ or to on call
MD in when clinic is closed.
Patient's antibiotic course to complete ___. He needs to be
scheduled in the ___ clinic for follow - up. Please call ___ to schedule patient to see ___ or ___
___.
Inactive issues:
# Alcoholic Cirrhosis: Complicated by portal vein thrombosis and
encephalopathy during last hospitalization after undergoing TKA,
was started on rifaximin and lactulose, continued at rehab, and
patient remains on these medications. Patient is s/p portocaval
shunting in ___. Patient's MELD score on admission was 34.
Was continued on lactulose and rifampin.
# CAD: ___ cath showed non-occlusive CAD to 40-50% stenosis,
but ___ TTE showed EF 30%, so likely have intervening event
during that month. Patient is not currently in decompensated
heart failure. At rehab recently, he was diuresed for pleural
effusions, but CXR from today shows no evidence of pulm edema,
effusions, and patient is satting 97(RA). Patient was continued
on Aspirin 81 mg PO/NG DAILY, Metoprolol as above, rosuvastatn
40 qhs.
# HTN: Metoprolol as above.
# CKD: Baseline Cr of 1.5-2.3, currently 1.4. All medications
were renally dosed.

supplementation and potential further workup as outpatient.
# ACUTE ON CHRONIC SYSTOLIC HEART FAILURE
Patient presented with dyspnea on exertion, weight gain, edema,
and markedly elevated BNP (30,679) consistent with HF
exacerbation. TTE after diuresis found mild global LV
dysfunction (EF 40%), borderline RV function, moderate TR,
moderate pHTN. Possible precipitants for this exacerbation
include anemia (high output HF?) or undiagnosed OSA. ECG and
troponins were negative for ischemia, and telemetry was negative
for arrhythmia. Symptoms improved rapidly with pRBC transfusions
and IV Lasix boluses, and patient was transitioned back to her
home torsemide dose. Home carvedilol was continued,
spironolactone was started, and hydralazine/imdur were increased
(see below). ___ were not started due to allergy.
# HYPERTENSION
Patient had elevated SBPs this admission to 150s-160s from
baseline 120s-140s. Home carvedilol was continued, and
hydralazine/imdur were increased.

Brief Hospital Course:
Patient presented to the ED on ___ with a syncopal episode that
occurred after getting out of bed, walking to her closet, and
feeling dizzy. She remembers waking up on the
floor with severe left shoulder pain, as well as mild left knee
pain and a headache. She does not recall the events between
feeling dizzy and waking up on the floor. Her husband was with
her, and states that the interval between these events was about
2 seconds. She hit her head and shoulder during her fall.
In the ED, studies performed include CBC, BMP, UA, X-Ray of left
clavicle and gleno-humeral shoulder, TTE, and 2 EKG's. Labs were
notable for normal CBC (Hb 14.4), unremarkable chemistry, and
negative UA. TTE was unremarkable. X-rays showed no fracture or
dislocation of the left shoulder.
EKG was notable for sinus rhythm, normal axis, normal intervals,
no hypertrophy, no signs of ischemia, and slurred upstroke of
QRS c/f delta wave in II and lateral leads.
Patient received 1L NS, Ibuprofen 600mg PO, and Acetaminophen
1000mg PO in the ED.
On the floor, patient denied any CP, SOB, palpitations, N/V,
weakness, numbness, sensory deficits, balance issues,
dizziness/LH, anxiety/panic attack sxs. L shoulder pain had
significantly improved since arrival in the ED. She reports no
headache in the morning.
Patient was on continuous telemetry monitoring with no
arrhythmias seen. Cardiology reviewed data, and agreed with the
team that the history most closely aligned with orthostatic
hypotension with dizziness preceding the event which occurred
shortly after rising from bed. Cardiology did not advise event
monitoring. The patient was discharged with close PCP
___. She was advised to liberalize fluid intake and rise
from seated position slowly, especially early in morning.

Brief Hospital Course:
This ___ year old female with a questionable history of psoriasis
(no psoriatic lesions were noted) presenting with polyarthritis
and palm and sole rash that was characterized as eruptive and
pustular. Dermatology saw Ms ___ and ___ that the rash
could be consistent with pustular psoriasis even though she had
no risk factors (did not start using steroids previously and has
unclear history of psoriasis). Biopsy was consistent with this
diagnosis. However, biopsy cannot distinguish between this and
keratoderma blenorrhagicum which is associated with HLA B27
seronegative spondyloarthropathies, especially reactive
arthritis. G/C and chylamydia were negative, however she did
describe a preceeding sore throat and sick contacts with fever
and sore throat and her ASO titers returned mildly positive.
Given increasing joint swelling in wrists bilaterally with no
improvement with NSAIDs, we started her on PO prednisone taper.
She will see Rheumatology as an outpatient. Plain films were
obtained of the left hand with no acute changes. She was
discharged on prednisone with significant improvement in
arthritic symptoms and synovitis and stable rash. Syphilis and
parvovirus titers returned negative. A single blood culture of
6 showed gram + organisms in clusters later identified as
coag-negative Staphylococcal species (contaminant).

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr ___,
You were admitted for worsening rash and arthritis. We feel
that the rash and arthritis are probably inflammatory (not
infectious or contagious in origin) and likely are related to an
autoimmune process. For this reason, we started you on
steroids, with significant improvement in your joint swelling.
You will need to be on prednisone 30 mg X 3 days, 20 mg X 3
days, 10 mg X 3 days, 5 mg X 3 days, then can stop. Rheumatology
will contact you regarding a follow up appointment next week.

Imaging:
___ CT abd: 1. No evidence of nephrolithiasis.
2. 1-cm hyperdense lesion in the interpolar region of the right
kidney likely
represents a small hemorrhagic cyst; could be confirmed on
ultrasound.
3. Extensive abdominal vascular calcifications.
4. Hiatal hernia.
5. Cholelithiasis.
6. Air in the urinary bladder is compatible with recent
catheterization; if
none, correlate with urinalysis to exclude infection. Bladder
relatively
collapsed. Apparent mild wall thickening of the bladder may
relate to
underdistention, but given history of UTIs, correlate with
urinalysis.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ w/ complicated PMH including ESRD on HD (TTHSat) w/
recurrent UTIs on trimethoprim suppression therapy, who
presented with acutely worsened urinary symptoms and a recent
urine culture positive for Klebsiella and E. coli both sensitive
to Bactrim.
.
# Recurrent UTI: Patient has had several UTIs in the past
several months growing klebsiella, VRE, and E.coli and has been
treated with cipro and linezolid in ___ and ___
respectively. Patient has had intermittently negative urine
cultures throughout this time and was being managed with
trimethoprim suppression therapy. Presented with worsening
symptoms and a ___ urine culture positive for Klebsiella and E.
coli both sensitive to Bactrim, Tobramycin and Gentamycin.
Initially treated with bactrim and meropenem. ___ urine culture
grew E.coli, sensitive to Bactrim, so antibiotics were narrowed
- Bactrim DS, given daily (after dialysis sessions).
.
# ESRD on HD: Patient goes to ___ dialysis ___
(___). Renal was consulted in the ED and
patient got HD prior to arrival to floor and got dialysis as in
inpatient according to her outpatient schedule. Nephrocaps
vitamin D and calcitriol were continued. Had an AV fistula
placed in ___, but not ready for use currently. Had some
tingling concerning for steal phenomenon. Transplant surgery was
consulted who said that this likely represented a steal syndrome
and that they would follow up with her after discharge
.
#Nausea vomiting and diaphoresis: Patient reported an episode of
n/v and diaphoresis, which she does report happens after
dialysis occasionally. EKG showed sinuys bradycardia with HR46
but no e/o ischemia. BP stable. Thought to be due to increased
vagal tone. Cardiac enzymes were negative. Patient was given a
250 cc bolus and reassessed. Symptoms resolved but her heart
rate remained in the ___ so her beta blocker dose was decreased.
.
# Anemia: Related to CKD, patient is on Epo shots (gets Aranesp
as an outpatient). Epo continued as an inpatient per renal
consult. Hematocrit remained relatively stable over admission in
the low ___.
.

CHEST, AP UPRIGHT: Dialysis catheter has been removed. Changes
of coronary artery bypass grafting, with median sternotomy and
mediastinal clips. Mild cardiomegaly and central vascular
congestion persist. Mild interstitial edema has developed.
IMPRESSION: Mild pulmonary edema.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ with history of CAD s/p CABG in ___, PCI in ___, and
NSTEMI ___ with inability to stent, systolic CHF (EF ___,
ESRD on dialysis, DM type II, and chronic UTIs, presenting with
one day history of shortness of breath, found to have CHF
exacerbation, now transferred to ___ for further management.
ACTIVE ISSUES BY PROBLEM:
# Acute on chronic systolic CHF: EF ___ on last TTE in
___. Subacute decompensation likely related to difficulty
achieving dry weight during dialysis, ~ 5kg above dry weight on
admission (EDW = 80kg). No sign of ischemia, slight troponin
elevation likely ___ renal failure. Required BiPAP initially on
arrival at ___, however she was quickly weaned to 3L NC. She
underwent dialysis 3 days in a row, and symptoms were greatly
improved with volume removal through ultrafiltration. Not
started on lasix while in-patient, but she was given a rx for PO
lasix to have at home and take as directed by her cardiologist
Dr. ___ she is gaining weight and becoming dyspneic
between HD days. She was continued on ASA 325, plavix,
atorvastatin, metoprolol and lisinopril on discharge.
# Urinary tract infection: frequent UTIs and chronic dysuria
with grossly positive UA on admission, urine culture grew
vancomycin-sensitive enterococcus (resistent to tetracycline).
Started on meropenem initially, then linezolid for one day once
the culture grew enterococcus, then switched to fosfomycin on
discharge (fosfomycin sensitive). She will continue this for
another 9 days (3 doses every 3 days) for treatment of
complicated UTI.
INACTIVE ISSUES BY PROBLEM:
# CAD: s/p CABG in ___, PCI in ___. No chest pain but trop
0.07 -> 0.12 on admission, likely small leak from demand ischmia
that is not cleared well secondary to renal failure. Troponin
remained flat. Continued on maximal medical management with ASA
325, plavix, atorvastatin, metoprolol and lisinopril
# ESRD: on HD ___. Underwent dialysis shortly after
arrival in the ED, given fluid overload and respiratory
distress. EDW is 80 kg, but recently had difficulty reaching dry
weight due to low BPs and leg cramps in dialysis. She was
dialyzed 3 days in a row (___) with achievement of
dry weight on discharge. She was given a presciption for PO
lasix to have in case of volume overload at home between
dialysis sessions. She was continued on nephrocaps.
# ANEMIA: thought to be secondary to renal failure, hct/hgb has
drifted down from her recent baseline. No sign of bleeding.
MCV is high at 107, had been normocytic before. Iron studies
showed anemia of chronic disease, B12 and folate were normal.
Would like benefit from further work up as an outpatient.
# Diabetes mellitus type II: continued on outpatient regimen of
NPH and regular sliding scale
# GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX: continued ranitidine
TRANSITIONS OF CARE:
- CHF: dialyzed to dry weight with relief of symptoms. Started
on PO lasix prn for acute exacerbations while in between
dialysis sessions. Instructed the patient to weigh herself
daily and if her weight was increasing and having shortness of
breath, to call Dr. ___ for instructions
regarding taking lasix at home.
- UTI: will continue fosfomycin for 9 more days (3 doses)
- Anemia: high MCV with anemia of chronic disease on iron
studies, normal B12 and folate, would benefit from further work
up/management as an outpatient

[ ] will have labs drawn by ___.
SUMMARY
========
Mr. ___ is a ___ y/o M w/ hx of CKD, HTN, HLD who
was admitted for cellulitis after initial treatment with
cefpodoxime appeared to cause a rash and fevers. He was changed
to Bactrim and then IV clindamycin for a 7 day course of
antibiotics with some improvement in his cellulitis. However, he
developed a new acute kidney injury thought to be due to the
Bactrim that improved prior to discharge. He also went into
atrial fibrillation for a brief period of time, which resolved
with fluids, and he was discharged in normal sinus rhythm.
ACUTE ISSUES:
============
# Cellulitis: Patient had been seen in the ED for left ankle
cellulitis and was started on cefpodoxime. However he developed
a rash and fever so was admitted for further management. He was
trialed on Bactrim ___, but his cellulitis worsened, so he
was changed to IV clindamycin through ___. Throughout his
admission, he was afebrile, CBC was without leukocytosis, and
blood cultures were negative. His ankle was erythematous but
never swollen, painful, and never had restricted range of
movement. Ankle XR showed no bony involvement. Triamcinolone
ointment was started per Derm recs to reduce erythema in his
foot and ankle.
#New atrial fibrillation, resolved: Patient became tachycardic
with PVCs briefly on ___ and was found to be in atrial
fibrillation on EKG. He denied chest pain palpitations,
shortness of breath, and denied history of previous afib. He
converted to NSR after receiving a 500cc LR bolus, and it was
felt his afib was due to the stress of the cellulitis. A TTE ___
showed normal EF, mild AR, mild MR. ___ was held
due to his increased risk of bleed, but he was monitored on tele
throughout his admission.
# Milaria: Patient developed a maculopapular rash on his back
and chest and arms that became more confluent during his
admission. It was initially thought to be due to the cefpodoxime
but did not resolve after stopping the cefpodoxime. Derm was
consulted and felt it was a heat rash, or milaria. He was
treated by keeping his back dry and cool. The rash was never
painful or pruritic.
# Seborrheic Dermatitis: Patient developed non-blanching patchy
rash that is not painful or pruritic across scalp. Rash
initially thought to be drug rash due to cefpodoxime. However,
rash still present despite d/c'ing cefpodoxime, and rash did not
worsen. Derm was consulted and believed it is most consistent
with seborrheic dermatitis. He was treated with ketoconazole
shampoo three times a week.
___: Patient experienced increase in creatinine from 2.7
(baseline 2.3-2.5) to max of 3.5 after Bactrim use and
discontinuation. UA showed no leuks, sediment was bland with no
muddy brown casts, urine eos negative, urine protein to
creatinine ratio 0.3. Home Lasix was held. Renal consulted and
not concerned for pre-renal or intrinsic process, more concerned
for post-Bactrim use and diuresis. Renal U/S ruled out
post-obstructive process, showed normal kidney size and normal
flow within renal arteries. The creatinine rose over several
days but improved on its own. At discharge, patient's creatinine
was 2.7.
# Hyperkalemia: Toward end of hospital stay, patient developed
hyperkalemia to 6.4 ___ut with repeat whole blood K as
high as 5.9. There was a value of 8.8 that was thought to be
spurious as resultant level was 4.9. For the K of 8.8 he was
given lasix, calcium gluconate, insulin and dextrose. EKG
without acute changes. Thought to be due to renal function from
Bactrim use vs underlying chronic kidney disease. Patient
mentioned that he follows with nephrology at ___,
and the hyperkalemia has been noted before. He was unconcerned,
but we requested he avoid foods high in potassium and to get
___ labs. Dietary modifications were given to home health
nurse and wife. He was discharged with 40mg of Potassium.

an atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale
by 2D/color Doppler or agitated saline at rest and with
maneuvers. The estimated right atrial pressure is ___
mmHg. There is normal left ventricular wall thickness with a
normal cavity size. There is mild regional left
ventricular systolic dysfunction with hypokinesis of the basal
halves of the inferior and inferolateral walls (see
schematic) and preserved/normal contractility of the remaining
segments. No thrombus or mass is seen in the
left ventricle. The visually estimated left ventricular ejection
fraction is 45%. There is no resting left
ventricular outflow tract gradient. Tissue Doppler suggests an
increased left ventricular filling pressure (PCWP
greater than 18mmHg). Normal right ventricular cavity size with
normal free wall motion. The aortic sinus
diameter is normal for gender with mildly dilated ascending
aorta. The aortic arch diameter is normal with a
normal descending aorta diameter. The aortic valve leaflets (?#)
appear structurally normal. There is no aortic
valve stenosis. There is no aortic regurgitation. The mitral
valve leaflets appear structurally normal with no
mitral valve prolapse. There is mild [1+] mitral regurgitation.
The tricuspid valve leaflets appear structurally
normal. There is physiologic tricuspid regurgitation. The
pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be
estimated. There is no pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality. Mild symmetric left
ventricular hypertrophy with mild
regional systolic dysfunction most consistent with single vessel
coronary artery disease (PDA
distribution). Mild mitral regurgitation with normal valve
morphology. Mildly dilated ascending
aorta. No structural cardiac source of embolism (e.g.patent
foramen ovale/atrial septal defect,
intracardiac thrombus, or vegetation) seen.
MRI brain:
1. Multifocal acute to early subacute infarctions, moderately
large in the left MCA territory, small in the anterior right
cingulate gyrus in the right
ACA territory, punctate in the right superior frontal gyrus in
the MCA territory, and multiple punctate small acute to early
subacute infarcts in the
right centrum semiovale.
2. No evidence for blood products. No significant mass effect.
3. Occlusion of bilateral internal carotid arteries is again
seen
with distal supraclinoid reconstitution, better assessed on the

CTA: OSH records
Brief Hospital Course:
Patient was admitted to the NeuroICU ___ after presenting with
right sided numbness and weakness.
#superficial left parietal and smaller left frontal/insular
infarcts as well as smaller left mesial frontal infarcts.
-Patient's initial neurologic examination was pertinent for
Broca's aphasia, right facial weakness, dysarthria, right
proximal weakness in arm and leg, and right sided sensory loss
throughout face, arm and leg. Patient's examination was noted to
be very dependent on position and deteriorated when he was not
in supine position. Patient, for example, had full strength of
left iliopsoas when laying down, but when moved to ___ 30
degrees had weakness. Patient's CTA head and neck showed
bilateral carotid occlusive disease and it was thought that he
is dependent on his posterior circulation (mainly left PCOM) as
well as contribution from his ophthalmic arteries. He underwent
MRI brain which showed a superficial left parietal and smaller
left frontal/insular infarcts as well as smaller left mesial
frontal infarcts. Etiology likely combination of stump emboli
and hypoperfusion. His BP was maintained SBP 140-200, briefly
requiring phenylephrine. Patient on day two of admission was
resumed on his home DAPT therapy. Prior to transfer from ICU
service, patient was able to sit in bedside chair without change
in neurologic exam. He was started on a diabetic, heart healthy
diet and tolerating without difficulty.
He underwent a TTE which showed an EF of 45% and no cardiac
source of emboli.
His A1c was 5.3 and LDL 89. He was maintained on his home
Atorvastatin 80 mg daily and fenofibrate 145 mg daily were
continued. His home metformin was held and he was maintained on
insulin sliding scale.
Of note, in order to not drop his blood pressure and assist with
perfusion to the brain his home Chlorthalidone 21 mg daily was
held and his home Toprol XL 100mg daily was changed to
Metoprolol Tartrate 25 mg PO/NG BID.
Of note, he was noted to have urinary retention with large
residuals >800. Foley was placed and he was started on started
finasteride daily. Urology was consulted and recommended voiding
trial and possible foley removal in clinic on ___.
He was seen by ___ who recommended rehab.
A ___ of heart monitor will be arranged as outpatient.
He was discharged in stable condition.
=================================
Transitional issues:
-needs to follow up with neurology. Appointment scheduled.
-needs to follow up with urology on ___ for voiding trial and
possible foley
removal. Please call ___ to arrange the appointment
-please do not drop his blood pressure below 140.
-will arrange ___ of heart monitor as outpatient

or cane).
Discharge Instructions:
Dear ___,
You were hospitalized due to symptoms of acute onset of speech
difficulties and right sided weakness 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:
#Diabetes
#Hypertension
#High cholesterol
We are changing your medications as follows:
-Metoprolol Tartrate 25 mg PO/NG BID
Please take your other medications as prescribed.
Please follow up with Neurology and your primary care physician
as well as with urology 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

abdominal pain that was attributed to stress. He had a MRI,
however, that showed thormbosed left anterior branch of the left
portal vein supplying segment II of the liver. For this, he was
started on coumadin. The plan was for six months of
anticoagulation followed by repeat imaging to ensure clot had
dissolved. The patient reports that he had a MRI to follow this,
he believes in ___, and this showed resolution of the clot
so the coumadin was discontinued.

RUQ U/S (___):
IMPRESSION: Left intrahepatic biliary duct dilatation that is
unchanged compared to CT two days ago. A more focal cystic
dilatation more posteriorly either represents an area of
intrahepatic biliary duct dilatation or previously seen/chronic
thrombosed left portal vein branch. There are a few scattered
hyperechoic foci that may represent pneumobilia. No evidence of
focal hepatic abscess. If clinically indicated, MRI can be done
for better detail.
.
CT ___ (___):
IMPRESSION:
PERSISTENT FOCAL BILIARY DILATATION IN THE LEFT LATERAL
SEGMENTS BUT
WITH RESOLUTION OF ABNORMAL PERFUSION. THIS APPEARANCE MAY
INCLUDE
CHRONIC SEGMENTAL THROMBOSIS OF A DISTAL PORTAL VENOUS
BRANCH IN

REGARDING THE HEPATIC ABNORMALITY, IF THE ETIOLOGY IS
UNCLEAR, MRCP
MAY BE OF SOME VALUE IN ASSESSING FURTHER AND IN PARTICULAR
TO
DELINEATE PORTAL VENOUS AND BILIARY ANATOMY.
ERCP:
___:
Procedures: Because of the evidence of mild sphincter
restenosis, a sphincteroplasty 8mm CRE balloon was introduced

One stone and a small amount of sludge was extracted
successfully using a balloon.
Impression: Evidence of a prior sphincterotomy was noted at the
major papilla.
Successful biliary cannulation was achieved with the
sphincterotome.
A single 6 mm stone was seen in the lower common bile duct.
There was evidence of prior right hepatectomy. There was mild
diffuse biliary dilation. No strictures or stones were seen in
the left intrahepatic branches.
The lower bile duct tapered at the ampulla, suggestive of mild
sphincter restenosis.
Because of the evidence of mild sphincter restenosis, a
sphincteroplasty 8mm CRE balloon was introduced for dilation
successfully.
One stone and a small amount of sludge was extracted
successfully using a balloon.
Otherwise normal ERCP to ___ portion of duodenum

Brief Hospital Course:
___ with RUQ and epigastric abdominal pain likely secondary to
gastritis and found to have hyponatremia likely secondary to
decreased PO intake and hydrochlorothiazide use. His pain
completely resolved with GI cocktail (maalox). He tolerated a
full regular breakfast and lunch without problems. His Na
trended up to 132. He will be discharged with a close follow up
appointment with his PCP.
# Gastritis: The patient was taking ibuprofen which likely lead
to gastritis. His abdominal imaging was reassuring as were LFTs
and lipase. His pain was completely resolved with maalox. He
tolerated a normal diet. He was discharged with an increased
dose of omeprazole (for the next two weeks), ranitidine (home
dose) and as needed mylanta (over the counter). He was warned
not to take NSAIDs again. The information was discussed with the
patient and also his son (HCP). He has close follow up with Dr.
___ further evaluation and management.
# Hyponatremia/Hypochloremia: This was thought to be secondary
to poor PO intake and hydrochlorothiazide use. The
hydrochlorothiazide was held and he was given gentle NS IVF with
improvement of Na. He advised to hold the hydrochlorothiazide
for the next 2 days and maintain good PO intake. His PCPs office
was notified and he will have lab work on ___. As an
inpatient his blood pressure was adequately controlled and he
should tolerate being off this medication for a couple days.
# History of CVA: He stopped taking his aspirin when diagnosed
with muscle tear. This was resumed during the hospitalization
without problems. He should continue to take this medication. He
is not on a statin.
# Thigh pain: Per patient he was discharged with "psoas muscle
tear" at ___. It is unclear how this diagnosis was made;
however, currently he is pain free. He will continue to take
tylenol and oxycodone as needed for pain. He was instructed not

Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted with abdominal pain. The cause of this pain is
likely related to inflammation of your stomach. This may have
been caused by taking ibuprofen. Please do not take this
medication in the future (or any other NSAIDs ie advil, motrin,
etc). You were treated with maalox, omeprazole and ranitidine
with resolution of your pain. You had no leg pain while you were
here. You tolerated a regular diet.
Of note, your blood sodium level was low. This was likely
related to poor oral intake and the medication called
hydrochlorothiazide. This improved while you were admitted.
The following changes were made to your medications:
1. omeprazole 40mg PO daily for the next 2 weeks. Then resume
20mg omeprazole daily.
2. Maalox, as needed for stomach discomfort. This is over the
counter.
3. HOLD hydrochlorothiazide for next 2 days. You can resume this
medication at that time if you have a good diet. If you are not
eating a good diet please discuss with your primary care
physician.

Ms. ___ is an ___ woman with history of
platinum-resistant metastatic ovarian cancer who presents for
abdominal pain and distension. She was a febrile/without
leukocytosis. Exam was notable for fluid shift. She underwent
uncomplicated ___ paracentesis with 3L of fluid removed
with slight improvement in her symptoms. ___ did not recommend
pleurX catheter, as she has not needed paracentesis that
frequently. Moreover, when suggested to the patient, she
declined pleurX catheter at this time.
She was also given Rx for albuterol inhaler for wheezing,

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ was admitted from home for left knee pain-not his
harvest leg. Of note he was being followed by Csurg for a seroma
on his vein harvest leg, on his right knee. On admission he had
an INR of 4.2. He takes coumadin for chronic atrial
fibrillation, which was held throughout his stay while the INR
drifted down to a low of 3.3 at discharge. The left knee was
aspirated by the orthopedic service and the fluid was found to
be negative for bacteria. He was advised to follow-up with the
orthopedic trauma clinic if his pain continues beyond two weeks.
During his stay he also developed pseudo-gout of the left ankle
and was seen by rheumatology. They recommended a prednisone
taper, which he will continue for six days after discharge. He
is a diet controlled diabetic normally, but his glucose levels
had been trending in the 200s to 300s since the initiation of
steroids. Due to the short course of his steroids, Dr. ___
___ the rheumatology service felt it was safer not to discharge
Mr. ___ with glucose-lowering agents. On hospital day five he

and by ___ to the hips and waist. The pain did not extend
beyond her wasit. By the end of ___, the pain worsened and she
had difficulty walking. She was not walking in ___. Pain
has been increasing, causing her legs to feel "tighter and
tighter" per Neuro, which causes significant pain when moved as
well as painful "spasms." Pain would sometimes extend to the
lower abdomen. Mrs. ___ began to experience bowel and
bladder incontinence in ___. She currently wears a
diaper. Again per Neuro, in ___ her hips and legs "became
heavy" and she felt as though she was loosing strength.
Simultaniously she also began to feel numbness in her feet which
spread proximally, reaching the waist by ___.
Ms. ___ moved from ___ four weeks ago. She was
occasionally prescribed prednisone to Tx her paraplegia when she
had painful episodes. She reports the prednisone would help with
her rigidity but not with her pain. Ms. ___ paraplegia
was never diagnosed in ___. Pt. reports being in good health
prior to onset of paraplegia with no sickness precipitating or
occuring concurantly with the paraplegia.
Starting three days prior to admission Ms. ___ began
feeling an abdominal pain in her lower abdomen. This was similar
to previous episodes of abdominal pain. She vomitted and felt
nauseas. She denies diarrhea, bloody stool, fevers, chills.
In the ED, initial VS were Temp 97.8, HR 107, BP 146/98, RR 18,
P02 100%.

**FINAL REPORT ___
RAPID PLASMA REAGIN TEST (Final ___:
NONREACTIVE.
Reference Range: Non-Reactive.
Imaging:
CT Abdomen/Pelvis (___): IMPRESSION:
1. Large amount of simple fluid distending the vagina.
Correlation with
direct pelvic exam is recommended.
2. No other acute abdominal process.
MRI C/T/L-Spine (___): IMPRESSION:
1. 4.3 x 1.1cm homogeneously enhancing extradural spinal canal
mass extending from C7-T3, causing severe cord compression and
cord edema/contusion at these levels. There is also extension
into and obliteration of the left C7-T1 and T1-T2 neural
foramens. Its appearance, including partial encasement of the
cord, heavily favors lymphoma or leukemia. Meningioma is also on
the differential, although somewhat atypical in this case given
less avid enhancement compared to the surrounding meninges.
Neuroblastoma is unlikely in this age group.
2. Mild degenerative changes in the cervical and lumbar spine,
most prominent at L5-S1 where there is disc bulging/superimposed
central protrusion without critical spinal canal narrowing at
this level.
NOTIFICATION: Preliminary findings were telephoned to Dr. ___
___ by ___ on ___ at 12:59PM, at time of discovery.
CT Chest (___): IMPRESSION:
Minimal bilateral pleural effusion, probably not clinically
significant. No adenopathy or other evidence of intrathoracic
malignancy.
Cervicothoracic extradural spinal mass, better demonstrated on
MR, ___, reported separately.
CT C-Spine (___): IMPRESSION:
1. The previously described enhancing extradural spinal canal
mass extending from C7-T3 is essentially in visible on CT and is
better assessed on recent MR of the spine.
2. No osseous abnormality detected.
3. Degenerative disc disease with disc protrusion flattening the
spinal cord at C3-4.
MRI PItuitary (___): IMPRESSION:
Normal pituitary.
CT T-spine w/ contrast (___): IMPRESSION:
1. Severe spinal canal narrowing with spinal cord compression at
the T1-T2
vertebrae levels due to compression from recently discovered
mass.
2. Mild scalloping of the T1 vertebrae.
3. Normal alignment and no evidence of fractures.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ F ___ who immigrated
to the ___ approximately 1 month ago, who presents for
evaluation of a ___ year history of progressive spastic
paraplegia, with associated abdominal pain.
ACTIVE ISSUES:
#Paraplegia:
The patient presents with a ___ year history of worsening
bilateral lower extremity weakness, which has since gradually
progressed to spastic paraplegia. The patient remains in a
wheelchair or bedbound, with baseline incontinence of both urine
and stool. The patient had never received any neuraxial imaging
while in ___. Imaging upon admission was remarkable for a 4.3
x 1.1cm homogeneously enhancing extradural spinal canal mass
extending from C7-T3, compressing the spinal cord at those
levels. The differential diagnosis for the mass included
Schwannoma, meningioma, lymphoma, among others. Neurology,
Neurosurgery, and orthopedic spine services were consulted for
further evaluation and attempt to biopsy the lesion.
Hematology/oncology provided recommendations for further
evaluation and instructions regarding biopsy preparation for
pathology. The patient was transferred to the neurology service
for further evaluation. Attempt was made to coordinate a biopsy
of her spinal canal mass with Neurosurgery and Spine surgery in
a combined surgery, but the patient preferred to wait and make a
decision as an outpatient for biopsy and further management.
Baclofen was started prior to discharge for her spasticity.
#Abdominal pain:
The patient presented with a history of chronic abdominal pain,
which was worse when patient's lower extremity spasms worsened.
A CT abdomen/pelvis demonstrated simple fluid collection in the
vagina; hCG was negative. OB/GYN was consulted, and it was felt
that this fluid was not contributing to the patient's abdominal
pain, and that a speculum examination should be performed when
the patient's spasticity improves to the degree that examination
could be conducted. The patient's abdominal pain was attributed
to cervical/thoracic cord compression leading to spasticity of
the abdominal muscles. The patient's abdominal pain improved
throughout her hospital stay.

Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Out of Bed with assistance to chair or
wheelchair.
Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. ___,
You were admitted to the hospital for paralysis of both your
legs, along with incontinence, and difficulty feeling your legs.
We performed imaging tests of your spine which showed a very
large mass that is pushing on your spinal cord, which is causing
your symptoms. The mass is concerning for a cancer, which is why
we recommended taking you to surgery to remove the mass for
biopsy. However you declined surgery at this time. You should
follow up in the Brain Tumor clinic to discuss further options
for care.
For your lower leg spasms, we started you on a medication called
baclofen. You can take 10mg three times a day for the first
week, then go up to 15mg three times a day after that.
For your amenorrhea (lack of menstrual periods), we performed an
MRI of your brain which was normal. To complete the remainder of
your workup, you should call the Obstetric/Gynecology clinic at
___ to arrange an appointment.
It was a pleasure taking care of you.
Sincerely,

History of Present Illness:
History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ yo male with a history of a benigh
pituitary tumor s/p resection ~ ___ years ago with reoccurance of
growth s/p XRT, in addition to history of DM, HTN, HL, OSA on
CPAP here after new onset seizure witnessed by his wife 4 hours
prior to presenting to ___. The history is obtained from the
wife as the patient does not remember anything pertaining to the
event. The wife reports that the patient was in his usual state
of health and went to bed the night before presenting to the
hospital. Around midnight, she heard her husband make a noise
that sounded like gagging and found her husband looking as
though he was not breathing. His lips were blue. She took off
his CPAP machine as she figured it must have been
disfunctioning. Shortly thereafter he began to exhibit
seizure-like activity that lasted for a minute and is presumed
to be a generalized tonic-clonic seizure based on description.
She reports that the patient has not had seizure previously.
He had no infectious symptoms the day prior. The patient was
taken by EMS to ___, where he was nonverbal and was not
following commands. Per records, he presented with a nasal
trumpet airway and was assisted with bag valve respiration in a
postictal state that was not improving. He reportedly had no
localization of pain or spontaneous eye opening. He did not
arrest but was intubated given altered mental status. He
initially had several laboratory abnormalities including
elevated CK, CK-MB, LFTs, amylase, and lipase. His inital ABG
after intubation showed: pH 6.7, PCO2 54, PO2 239. HCO3 was
6.7. After less than an hour, he was transferred to ___ for
further management. He was not given IV bicarbonate. He was
given 100mg IV keppra (due to an allergy to dilantin, which was
previously used for seizure prophylaxis after his pituitary
tumor resection). He was given ativan, propofol, and
succinylcholine. A CBC and chemistries were pending at the time
of transfer.
On arrival to the ___, his initial vitals in the ED were: 50,
140/106, 93%, but his BP dropped to 60/30's within 10 minutes of
arrival. The patient was started on Norepinephrine IV gtt. A
head CT was performed and negative for intracranial processes.
He was empirically started on ceftriaxone and vancomycin for
possible community-acquired meningitis. He was also started on
acyclovir for possible HSV encephalitis. The patient was also
started on Norepinephrine IV gtt for hypotension, and he had a
femoral central line and OGT placed.
He was transferred to the MICU for further management. Lumbar
puncture was attempted unsucessfully, so interventional
radiology did a flouro-guided LP. The patient did well in the
MICU and was successfully extubated. He was then transferred to
Neurology.

Pertinent Results:
IMAGING:
MRI ___-
FINDINGS:
There is a focal area of altered signal intensity in the left
frontal lobe,
with T1 hypo and T2 hyperintense appearance in the center
surrounded by
hypointense signal and negative susceptibility within, likely
related to old
blood products. There is no abnormal enhancement noted within
except for
minimal rim enhancement.
No foci of abnormal enhancement are noted elsewhere to suggest a
mass lesion.
There are a few small foci of slightly increased DWI signal in
the right
parietal lobe (series 1402, image 20, 22), which are too small
to be
accurately characterized and may represent tiny infarcts.
However, these are
not well seen on the ADC sequence.
A few small scattered FLAIR-hyperintense foci are noted,
non-specific in
appearance. There is increased signal intensity, diffusely to a
mild extent
in the mastoid air cells on both sides. There is moderate
mucosal thickening
with fluid in the ethmoid air cells and sphenoid sinuses. The
portal mucosal
thickening and retention cysts are noted in the maxillary
sinuses on both
sides.
The patient is status post surgery, in the sella.
Areas of increased T1 signal are noted, in the floor of the
sella as well as
in the suprasellar location and anterior to the sella likely
related to the
prior procedure/fat packing.
On the post-contrast images, there is a slightly heterogeneously
enhancing
pituitary gland with enlargement noted. There is possible mild
extension of
the tumor into the cavernous sinus on the right side. However,
study is
somewhat limited due to the orientation of the images.
The infundibulum is not well seen. Part of the optic chiasm is
seen.
IMPRESSION:
1. Focal area of altered signal intensity in the left frontal
lobe with very
minimal peripheral enhancement and extensive foci of negative
susceptibility
within, likely relates to an area of prior blood products. No
abnormal
vessels noted adjacent. Correlate with history for prior
trauma.
2. Two small foci of increased DWI signal in right parietal
lobe-
acute-subacute tiny infarcts- attention on f/u.
2. Pan-paranasal sinus disease involving the ethmoid and
sphenoid sinuses
predominantly and mild in the mastoid air cells on both sides.
3. Post-surgical changes in the sella, along with an enlarged
pituitary
gland, with slight heterogeneous enhancement. This may
represent
residual/recurrent adenoma.
Comparison with prior studies can be helpful to assess interval
change.
Otherwise, consider followup in a few weeks/months to assess
stability/progression. There is possible mild extension of the
tumor into the
cavernous sinus on the right side. However, study is somewhat
limited due to
the orientation of the images.
EEG ___ -
FINDINGS: CONTINUOUS EEG RECORDING: Began at 18:05 on the
evening of ___ and continued until 7 the next morning.
Again, it showed a very low voltage, relatively rapid background
of about ___ Hz, with some anterior
predominance. There was a In the recording from 20:30 until
22:30 the first evening. Otherwise, the background remained the
same through the end of the recording.
SLEEP: No normal waking or sleep patterns were evident.
CARDIAC MONITORING: showed a generally regular rhythm with an
occasional PVC.
SPIKE DETECTION PROGRAMS: Showed muscle and other artifact, but
there were no clearly epileptiform features.
SEIZURE DETECTION PROGRAMS: Showed no electrographic seizures.
PUSH BUTTON ACTIVATIONS: There were none.
IMPRESSION: This telemetry captured no pushbutton activations.
It showed a low voltage faster pattern, uniform in all head
regions, throughout recording. This suggests medication effect.
There were no areas of focal slowing, and there were no
epileptiform features or electrographic seizures.

Normal PA systolic pressure.
PULMONIC VALVE/PULMONARY ARTERY: Pulmonic valve not well seen.
PERICARDIUM: No pericardial effusion. There is an anterior space
which most likely represents a fat pad, though a loculated
anterior pericardial effusion cannot be excluded.
GENERAL COMMENTS: Contrast study was performed with 1 iv
injection of 8 ccs of agitated normal saline at rest. Suboptimal
image quality - poor echo windows. Suboptimal image quality -
body habitus. Suboptimal image quality - ventilator.
Conclusions
The left atrium is mildly dilated. The right atrium is
moderately dilated. No atrial septal defect or patent foramen
ovale is seen by 2D, color Doppler or saline contrast with
maneuvers. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy
with normal cavity size and regional/global systolic function
(LVEF>55%). The right ventricular cavity is mildly dilated with
normal free wall contractility. The ascending aorta is mildly
dilated. There is no aortic valve stenosis. Mild (1+) aortic
regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are
structurally normal. Trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. [Due
to acoustic shadowing, the severity of mitral regurgitation may
be significantly UNDERestimated.] The estimated pulmonary artery
systolic pressure is normal. There is no pericardial effusion.
There is an anterior space which most likely represents a
prominent fat pad.
IMPRESSION: Normal global and regional biventricular systolic
function. Mild aortic regurgitation. No ASD or PFO seen. Limited
study.
HEAD CT ___ -
No acute intracranial hemorrhage, large vascular territory
infarct, shift of midline structures or mass effect is present.
The ventricles and sulci are normal in size and configuration.
The patient is status post a right
craniotomy. High-density lining the left frontal gray matter
likely
represents cortical laminar necrosis. Visible paranasal sinuses
and mastoid air cells show diffuse polypoidal mucosal thickening
in both maxillary sinuses and within the ethmoidal air cells and
frontal sinus . A moderate amount of fluid is noted in the
sphenoid air cells.
CXR ___ -
Slightly rotated positioning. Compared with ___ at 5:35
a.m., the
cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable. There is more
pronounced focal
opacity in the right midzone, in the perihilar area. This may
reflect the
presence of atelectasis, but an early infiltrate is in the
differential.
There is upper zone redistribution, but I doubt overt CHF.
There is minimal
atelectasis at the left base peripherally, with increased
retrocardiac
density, consistent with left lower lobe collapse and/or
consolidation.
Suspect small amount of fluid at the right costophrenic angle,
unchanged.
IMPRESSION:
1) More pronounced focal opacity in the right perihilar region
-- ?
atelectasis or early pneumonic infiltrate. Otherwise, no
significant change.

Cardiac nuclear pharmacologic stress perfusion:
SUMMARY FROM THE EXERCISE LAB:
For pharmacologic coronary vasodilatation 0.4 mg of regadenoson
(0.08 mg/ml) was
infused intravenously over 20 seconds followed by a saline
flush. He had
atypical symptoms with the infusion with an uninterpretable ECG.
IMAGING METHOD:
Resting perfusion images were obtained with Tc-99m sestamibi.
Tracer was
injected approximately 45 minutes prior to obtaining the resting
images.
Following resting images and 20 seconds following intravenous
regadenoson,
approximately three times the resting dose of Tc-99m sestamibi
was administered
intravenously. Stress images were obtained approximately 30
minutes following
tracer injection.
Imaging protocol: Gated SPECT.
This study was interpreted using the 17-segment myocardial
perfusion model.
INTERPRETATION:
The image quality is adequate but limited due to soft tissue
attenuation.
Left ventricular cavity size is normal.
Rest and stress perfusion images reveal uniform tracer uptake
throughout the
left ventricular myocardium.
Gated images reveal normal wall motion.
The calculated left ventricular ejection fraction is 68% with an
EDV of 87 ml.
IMPRESSION:
1. Normal myocardial perfusion.
2. Normal left ventricular cavity size and systolic function.
Brief Hospital Course:
# Neurologic:
The description from the patient's wife, who witnessed the
event, and the elevated creatine kinase seem consistent with
seizure activity. A head CT and a head MRI were both done and
showed no acute intracranial processes. The flouro-guided lumbar
puncture showed 1 WBC and slightly elevated protein. A 24 hour
electroencephalogram showed global slowing consistant with alpha
coma. This was likely post-ictal in etiology. He has been placed
on levetiracetam 750mg BID for seizure prophylaxis. Since
transfer to Neurology, he has been found to be fully oriented on
each exam. He has had no focal neurological defects except R
temporal visual field cut in R eye, described as a chronic
problem per patient.
He will begin to see a Neurologist. In 2 months he should have a
repeat MRI to determine whether or not his sellar mass remains
stable.
# Respiratory:
Initial respiratory difficulty presumably was a result of
altered mental status during post-ictal phase. He initially had
a lactic acidosis and consistent ABG abnormalities, likely as a
result of seizing. He was easily extubated following resolution
of the post-ictal phase. He had no further respiratory distress
during the admission.
# Cardiovascular:
Initial lab abnormalities included elevated cardiac enzymes.
Also EKG showed RBBB and inferolateral ST depression of 1mm in
limb leads and 2mm in lateral precordial leads.
On initial presentation he was hypotensive so he received
pressor support and anti-hypertensive medications were held.
Thereafter he received home medication, amlodipine.
Given the EKG changes and CKMB elevation on admission, it was
decided that during his admission he should have a
pharmacological stress test with nuclear imaging. This was
normal.
Throughout this admission he slept with CPAP to continue his
treatment for OSA. It has been recommended that he see a sleep
specialist in order to reassess his current CPAP machine
settings as he and his wife state that the patient hasn't seen a
sleep specialist in ___ years.
# Endocrine:
He has panhypopituitarism as a result of his trans-sphenoidal
pituitary resection. A stress dose of steroids was given in the
MICU. Throughout his admission he was continued on thyroid
hormone replacement, DDAVP, and prednisone. He should follow up
with an endocrinologist to discuss his regimen, including
whether he needs stress-dose steroids for illness and other
emergency situations.
# Renal:
Renal failure on initial presentation presumably due to
prolonged hypoperfusion due to seizure activity. His creatinine
was trended and decreased during his stay, thus suggesting
prerenal failure as the etiology. Medications were renally dosed
and nephrotoxins were avoided.
# FEN/GI:
He was given omeprazole daily. He had no difficulties eating,
drinking, or taking medications by mouth throughout this
admission.
# Musculoskeletal:
He was seen and evaluated by the physical therapy team. He has
an appropriate level of mobility and will just need follow up
for his L shoulder pain, thought to be a rotator cuff injury. It
is recommended that he have outpatient Orthopedics follow-up as
well as outpatient ___ for his L shoulder injury.
# DISPO:
He will return home with 24-hour assistance from wife; no other
in-home services are deemed necessary at this time.
Medications on Admission:
Preadmission medications listed are correct and complete.
Information was obtained from Family/Caregiver.
1. Prednisone 7.5 mg PO DAILY
2. Levothyroxine Sodium 150 mcg PO DAILY
3. Alendronate Sodium 70 mg PO QFRI
4. Desmopressin Nasal 4 sprays NAS BID
**Refrigerate**
5. Amlodipine 10 mg PO DAILY

Discharge Medications:
1. Amlodipine 10 mg PO DAILY
hold for SBP<100
2. Desmopressin Nasal 4 sprays NAS BID
**Refrigerate**
3. Levothyroxine Sodium 150 mcg PO DAILY
4. PredniSONE 7.5 mg PO DAILY
5. LeVETiracetam 750 mg PO BID
6. Alendronate Sodium 70 mg PO QFRI
Discharge Disposition:
Home
Discharge Diagnosis:
Seizure
Panhypopituitarism
Discharge Condition:
Mental Status: Clear and coherent.
Level of Consciousness: Alert and interactive.
Activity Status: Ambulatory - Independent.
Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted after having a first generalized seizure. Most
likely, this was caused by post-surgical changes in your brain
from your pituitary surgery. After being stabilized and
intubated at ___, you were transferred to our
ICU. In the ICU, several diagnostic studies were obtained,
including head imaging and a lumbar puncture (spinal tap). Once
you were extubated, you were transferred to the general
neurology floor. You were monitored with continuous EEG, and
there were no concerning findings on this. Because you initially
had some EKG changes, we also performed a nuclear stress study
of your heart, which was normal.
Because you had a seizure, we started you on an antiepileptic
medication called levetiracetam (Keppra), please continue taking
this at 750 mg twice daily.
You should not drive for 6 months after your last seizure. You
should also avoid placing yourself in potentially dangerous
situations such as climbing up ladders, swimming without
supervision etc.
You will need to follow up with a neurologist to manage your
seizure medications. Also, a follow-up brain MRI should be
obtained in ___ months to make sure that the changes seen in
your brain are stable.
You should follow up with an endocrinologist to manage your
panypopituitarism, that is: the absence of the hormones produced
by the pituitary gland. Specifically, you should discuss whether
you should get a home prescription for stress dose steroids in
case of an illness.
You should also follow up with your sleep clinic to assess
whether your home CPAP machine is optimally calibrated, because
uncontrolled sleep apnea can lead to fatigue during the day and
occasionally makes seizures more likely.
You should follow up with occupational therapy and perhaps an
orthopedic surgeon for your rotator cuff injury. We will give
you a script for occupational therapy.

History of Present Illness:
Ms. ___ is a ___ yo female with approximately 2 months of
jawpain and progressive dysphagia. She first noted the onset of
her symptoms on ___ and initially had difficulty tolerating
solids. This gradually progressed to inability to tolerate
liquids on ___. She endorses progressive hoarseness since
that time. Her symptoms were also accompanied by bilateral
intermittent earaches, headaches, jaw pain and throat irritation
and she was initially diagnosed with TMJ and GERD.
She was seen by ENT in ___ and was found to have severe
crichopharyngeal dysfunction. She underwent microlaryngoscopy
vocal fold injection for vocal fold hypomobility as well as
esophagoscopy, esophageal dilation and cricopharyngeal Botox
injection on ___.
She was evaluated by neurology with suspicion of motor neuron
disease given findings of tongue deviation, dysphagia, and
dysphonia and was ordered for CT, paraneoplastic panel, and
brain MRI. CT of her neck revealed a 4.6 cm mass adjacent to or
arising from the left lobe of the thyroid.
She underwent FNA with report of squamous cell carcinoma and was
transferred to OMED for further workup and management of newly
diagnosed head and neck cancer.
Review of systems is notable for intermittent bilateral
posterior headache, horseness, and earache. She endorses
hoarseness and wheezing, though denies shortness of breath and
chest pain. She cannot endorse odynophagia as she is unable to
swallow any liquids or solids at this time, and is unable to
swallow her secretions. She denies abdominal pain, dysuria,
fevers, chills, muscle aches, joint pains. She does endorse
constipation.

EMG: ___
Clinical Interpretation: Borderline abnormal study. There is
increased
individual jitter in one fiber pair on SFEMG. Although this does
not meet
diagnostic criteria, a post-synaptic disorder of neuromuscular
transmission as in myasthenia ___ is a consideration.
Botulinum toxin injections can increase jitter in muscles
distant from the site of injection. There is no
electrophysiologic evidence for a generalized disorder of motor
neurons as in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
CT abdomen ___
IMPRESSION:
1. No clear evidence to suggest malignancy in the abdomen or
pelvis.
2. Distended gall bladder filled with stones. Trace
inflammatory change
immediately posterior to the GB. These findings raise concern
for but are not entirely diagnostic of acute cholecystitis. If
patient has abnormal LFT's or right upper quadrant tenderness,
further evaluation with ultrasound is recommended.
CT Chest ___
IMPRESSION:
1. 3.2-cm (TRV) x 4.1-cm (AP) x 4.7-cm (CC) heterogeneous mass
in the region of the left lobe of the thyroid (3;8), which
laterally displaces the left carotid from the larynx, and may
invade the cricoid cartilage,
cricopharyngeus, upper esophagus, innominate and left subclavian
arteries.
NOTE: This could be secondary to thyroid cancer, however this
mass is highly concerning for a squamous cell carcinoma. A
dedicated neck CT is recommended for further evaluation.
2. Multiple nodules in the right lung measuring up to 5-mm.
Given that the neck mass is highly suspicious for malignancy, a
6-month follow up is
recommended to assess for stability of the nodules.
CT Neck ___
IMPRESSION: 4.6 cm mass adjacent to or arising from the left
lobe of the
thyroid. Further characterization with ultrasound can be
considered, but
ultimately biopsy would be required for definitive diagnosis.
No cervical lymphadenopathy.
Cytology Report ___
CYTOLOGY REPORT - Final
Specimen(s) Submitted: FINE NEEDLE ASPIRATION, THYROID
Diagnosis FNA, Thyroid, Left.
Specimen Adequacy: Adequate.
General Category: Positive for keratinizing squamous cell
carcinoma
Note: Tumor cells are positive for TTF-1, but negative for
thyrogobulin and p16 (pathcy non-specific pattern). Primary
thyroid
squamous cell carcinoma is favored based on location and TTF-1
staining. The tumor is high-grade. Dr. ___
___ were
informed on the diagnosis on ___ by Dr. ___.
CT HEAD ___
FINDINGS:
There is no evidence of hemorrhage, edema, mass effect or acute
large vascular territory infarction. Prominent ventricles and
sulci suggest age-related atrophy. Periventricular white matter
hypodensities are consistent with chronic small vessel ischemic
disease. The basal cisterns appear patent and there is
preservation of gray-white differentiation.
No fracture is identified. The visualized paranasal sinuses,
mastoid air
cells and middle ear cavities are clear. Atherosclerotic mural
calcification of the internal carotid arteries is noted. The
globes are unremarkable.
IMPRESSION:
No acute intracranial process.
FDG-PET ___
INTERPRETATION:
Comparison is made to CT neck ___
HEAD/NECK: There is a large 5.9 x 4.3cm FDG avid (SUVMax 27.9)
cervical mass extending from the hyoid bone to the thoracic
inlet. There is no FDG avid cervical adenopathy.
CHEST: Multiple foci of FDG avidity in the lungs correspond to
ground glass
pulmonary opacities in the superior left lower lobe (image 80),
posterior right middle lobe and right lower lobe (image 87).
There is an 11 x 16mm solid nodule in the medial left lower lobe
which is not FDG avid (image 93).
ABDOMEN/PELVIS: There is a small volume of pneumoperitoneum.
There is mild FDG avidity and subcutaneous air surrounding the
gastrostomy tube tract (image 124). Dense gallstones layer in
the bladder.
MUSCULOSKELETAL: There are extensive degenerative changes at
the left
femoro-acetabular joint. Two pins traverse the left femoral
neck.
Physiologic uptake is seen in the brain, myocardium, salivary
glands, GI and GU tracts, liver and spleen.
IMPRESSION:
1. Large FDG avid cervical mass corresponding with known
malignancy. No evidence of FDG avid nodal metastasis.
2. Multi-focal FDG avid ground glass pulmonary opacities
suggestive of
pneumonia or aspiration pneumonitis.
3. 16mm non-FDG avid left lower lobe nodule.
4. Small volume pneumoperitoneum compatible with recent
gastrostomy placement.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ woman presenting with dysphagia s/p
microlaryngoscopy vocal
fold injection, esophageal dilation and cricopharyngeal Botox
without improvement.
#Squamous cell carcinoma: Ms. ___ presented with a 2 month
history of dysphagia, which was extensively worked up as an
outpatient. It was characterized by cricopharyngeal dysfunction,
esophageal spasm, and vocal paresis. She was s/p botox to upper
esophageal sphincter and cricopharyngeal botox and dilation.

with Dr. ___. However, she is discharged to rehab and
***She should receive her next scheduled dose of CISPLATIN while
in rehab. Her next dose is scheduled for ___
- She will follow up with radiation oncology on ___ for further radiation therapy planning.
Chemotherapy schedule: Cisplatin: C1D1 = ___. Administer on
days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36 and 43. ___,
___ and ___.
# Headache: Chronic, likely tension headache given distribution
of pain and muscle spasm. Exacerbated by constant throat
clearing and expectoration of saliva. CT head without contrast
(___) showed no acute intracranial process. She was written
for Oxycodone-Acetaminophen Elixir PRN pain. MRI was
contraindicated due to possible metallic ear implants.
# Dysphagia: Secondary to neck mass. Patient unable to tolerate
PO intake and has a PEG tube in place. She receives bolus tube
feeds with:

STUDIES:
========
ECG: Normal sinus rhythm. Possible prior inferior wall
myocardial infarction. Borderline Q-T interval prolongation. No
previous tracing available for comparison.
CXR
Low lung volumes with streaky bibasilar opacities, most likely
atelectasis. Otherwise, no acute cardiopulmonary process.
RUQ ultrasound
1. Cirrhotic liver without focal concerning lesion. Sequela of
portal
hypertension including splenomegaly and moderate four-quadrant
ascites.
2. Doppler assessment demonstrates patency of all visualized
veins with slow reversed flow in the left portal vein. Please
note midline including portal confluence and splenic vein is
obscured by bowel gas.
Echo
The left atrial volume index is moderately increased. The
interatrial septum is dynamic/borderline aneurysmal. Left
ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and regional/global
systolic function are normal (LVEF=70%). Right ventricular
chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve
leaflets are moderately thickened. There is moderate aortic
valve stenosis (valve area 1.0cm2). No aortic regurgitation is
seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is
no mitral valve prolapse. Trivial mitral regurgitation is seen.
There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There
is no pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Normal biventricular systolic function. Moderate
calcific aortic valve stenosis. Moderate pulmonary artery
hypertension. Mildly dilated aortic root.
diagnostic and therapeutic paracentesis
Uneventful diagnostic and therapeutic paracentesis yielding 1.9
L of clear, straw-colored ascitic fluid.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ year old M with CAD, PVD, HCV/EtOH cirrhosis presenting with
worsening ascites in the setting of recent decrease in diuretic
dose
ACUTE ISSUES:
============
# ASCITES: Pt presented with a history of ascites difficult to
control with diuretics secondary to hyponatremia. Pt's diuretic
dosing had recently been reduced to lasix 20mg and
spironolactone 50mg daily in the setting of hyponatremia to 127.
Pt presented to ___ with worsening abdominal distension and
an improved serum sodium of 131. Pt underwent a diagnostic
paracentesis in the ___ ED, which did not show evidence of
SBP. The following day, pt underwent therapeutic and diagnostic
paracentesis with ___ and 1.9L of ascitic fluid was removed,
again without evidence of SBP. Post-procedure, pt was
discharged home with follow up in the transplant ___
clinic. Pt was continued on his home lasix and spironolactone
dosing, and will likely need weekly therapeutic paracenteses as
an outpatient given pt's propensity to develop hyponatremia at
higher diuretic doses.
# HEPATIC ENCEPHALOPATHY: Pt presented with a history of two
episodes of HE. Takes lactulose and rifaximin at home. Pt was
noted to have some asterixis on exam, however pt did not
demonstrate evidence confusion of altered mental status. Pt's
home lactulose and rifaximin were continued. In addition, pt's
bentyl for abdominal discomfort with lactulose was continued.
# CIRRHOSIS: Pt presented with cirrhosis secondary to HCV and
alcohol, not currently listed given severe vasculopathy. MELD
21 on admission. RUQ ultrasound demonstrated cirrhotic
morphology of the liver with patent PV. As discussed above, pt
was continued on his home diuretics, lactulose and rifaximin.
Pt was treated with SBP prophylaxis given no prior history.
# INGUINAL AND PERIUMBILICAL HERNIA: Pt presented with right
inguinal and periumbilical hernias. Exam did not demonstrate
evidence of ischemia or entrapment. Pt will follow up with
transplant surgery as an outpatient for evaluation for possible
hernia repair.
# Aortic stenosis: Pt presented with a history of AS, and TTE
was performed which demonstrated normal biventricular systolic
function, moderate calcific aortic valve stenosis, moderate
pulmonary artery hypertension, and a mildly dilated aortic root.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
===============
# CAD/PVD: Continued home ASA
# TYPE 2 DM: Continued home insulin
# ATRIAL FIBRILLATION: Continued home metoprolol, continued home
ASA
# SMOKER: Continued home bupropion
# NEUROPATHY: Continued home gabapentin
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:
===================
# Pt will likely need weekly paracenteses
# Pt will follow up with transplant surgery as outpatient for
possible hernia repair
# Pt will follow up with transplant hepatology as outpatient

Trauma CXR (___)
Nonspecific patchy opacities at the left lung base. Left-sided
subcutaneous emphysema.
CTA Neck (___)
The carotidandvertebral arteries and their major branches are
patent with no evidence of stenoses or dissection.
- No fracture identified. Normal spinal alignment.
-Shallow left apical pneumothorax.
-Subcutaneous emphysema overlying the left lateral chest wall
extending superiorly along the left scalene and
sternocleidomastoid muscles. Gas is noted around the left
vertebral artery at the level of C5 and in the adjacent the left
epidural space.
CT Chest/Abdomen/Pelvis (___)
Left lateral chest wall stab wound site with associated lung
laceration (02:56), small left pneumothorax (___:23), and small
left hemothorax (2:81), as well as mildly displaced complete
anterior left fifth rib fracture (605:127) at entry. Locules of
gas track along the right anterior abdominal wall at site of
stab wound without CT evidence of intra-abdominal entry. Please
see separate CTA neck for neck findings.
CXR (___)
Mild pulmonary edema is new. Heterogeneous opacification
persists at the left lung base but has not worsened, consistent
with stable contusion or aspiration. There has been no change
since the chest CT 2 hours earlier to suggest an increase in
either small left pneumothorax or a small left pleural
effusion. One separated rib fracture is clear, anterior left
fifth, with adjacent subcutaneous emphysema, unchanged.
CXR (___)
Moderate left pneumothorax is substantially larger. Left
pleural effusion IS small if any. Left basal consolidation is
more pronounced, perhaps atelectasis from displacement by the
larger pneumothorax. Right basal atelectasis is mild,
reflecting ipsilateral mediastinal shift.
CXR (___)
Small left pneumothorax has decreased substantially following
insertion of a basal pigtail pleural drainage catheter. Left
basal consolidation is nevertheless more pronounced now than it
was earlier in the day, presumably worsening atelectasis. Left
pleural effusion minimal if any. Heart size
normal. Right lung grossly clear.
CXR (___)
Left pigtail catheter is in place. There is left apical
pneumothorax, small. Heart size and mediastinum are stable. Left
retrocardiac atelectasis is unchanged. Right lung is overall
clear.
R Hand XR (___)
Mildly displaced fracture of the dorsal base of the distal fifth
phalanx with mild flexion deformity, concerning for mallet
finger. Likely chronic changes related to waist fracture of the
scaphoid. Recommend correlation for pain in the anatomic
snuffbox and considering dedicated views of the wrist.
CXR (___)
There has been interval repositioning of the left pleural
pigtail catheter. No discrete pneumothorax is identified.
Retrocardiac atelectasis is unchanged. No large pleural
effusion. The size of the cardiac silhouette is within normal
limits. Unchanged cortical irregularity of the distal right
clavicle at the
acromioclavicular joint.
R Wrist XR (___)
There is again seen osseous irregularity and spurring about the
scaphoid waist suggestive of prior old injury. However, please
correlate with any history of prior trauma and acute pain. On
the lateral view, there is a well corticated density along the
volar aspect of the wrist joint and another calcific density
dorsal to the capitate. Small dystrophic calcification is seen
superior to the expected location the TFCC on the AP view.
There are mild degenerative changes of the first CMC joint with
minimal joint space narrowing spurring. No definite acute
fractures or dislocations are seen.
CXR (___)
Apical 1.5 cm pneumothorax. Stable position of the left
drainage pigtail catheter.
CXR (___)
Left-sided pigtail catheter is unchanged. There is a small left
apical pneumothorax. Lungs are low volume with bibasilar
atelectasis. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable. There is
subsegmental atelectasis in the right lower lobe.
CXR (___)
Comparison to ___. The left pleural pigtail
catheter is in stable position. The left pneumothorax has
minimally decreased. There is no evidence of tension. Stable
retrocardiac atelectasis. No pleural effusions. No pulmonary
edema. No pneumonia.
Brief Hospital Course:
Patient is a ___ yo M, who presented as a transfer from ___
___ s/p multiple stab wounds (as detailed in HPI). Patient
triggered on arrival as trauma stat for multiple stab wounds.
Complaining of left chest, posterior neck, and left arm pain.
Initial SBP 91 per EMS report, on immediate repeat on our
telemetry, SBP 110s. Patient was alert and oriented, with C
collar in place. Primary trauma survey notable for crepitus over
the left chest, but otherwise unremarkable and with equal breath
sounds bilaterally. Secondary survey notable for 1 cm horizontal
linear laceration over posterior neck (hemostasis achieved), 3
stab wounds approximately 1 cm horizontal linear located over
left chest and left shoulder (hemostasis achieved), single 1 cm
linear horizontal stab wound over left upper quadrant
(hemostasis achieved). E-fast negative. Portable chest x-ray
with no evidence of obvious pneumothorax. Patient then underwent
CT head, C spine, CTA neck, and CT torso. CTA demonstrated
subcutaneous emphysema overlying the left lateral chest wall
extending superiorly along the left scalene and
sternocleidomastoid muscles, with gas around the left vertebral
artery at the level of C5 and in the adjacent the left epidural
space. No vascular injury. C collar was replaced as a precaution
pending final read of the imaging. CT chest/abdomen/pelvis
showed left lateral chest wall stab wound site with associated
lung laceration, small left pneumothorax, and small left
hemothorax, and mildly displaced complete anterior left fifth
rib fracture at entry. Locules of gas were noted tracking along
the right anterior abdominal wall at site of stab wound without
CT evidence of intra-abdominal entry.
Patient's lacerations on his left shoulder and chest were
irrigated with copious amounts of sterile saline, washed with
Betadine, and closed with skin stapler. Laceration on the left
midaxillary line closed with 4 staples. Three lacerations in the
posterior shoulder closed with 3 staples each. Abdominal wound
and posterior neck wound remained open per Trauma Surgery
recommendations. Given the findings of trace pneumothorax but no
respiratory distress with hemodynamic stability, chest tube
placement was deferred and the patient was admitted to Trauma
Surgery to the TSICU.
The patient had stable O2 requirements of 2 L NC overnight after
admission to the ___, but AM CXR showed increased pneumothorax
and a left pigtail catheter was placed with immediate escape of
air. CXR confirmed appropriate placement. The patient was
otherwise doing well, and was deemed appropriate for step down
to the floor that morning of HD2. The final read of the CTA neck
confirmed no acute fracture and appropriate alignment, and his C
collar was clinically cleared. On tertiary survey on the evening
of HD2, the patient was noted to have bruising to the right ___
digit with tenderness to palpation and tenderness to palpation
over the right wrist at the anatomic snuffbox. A right hand XR
was ordered on HD3, which demonstrated a mildly displaced
fracture of the dorsal base of the distal fifth phalanx with
mild flexion deformity (concerning for mallet finger), and
likely chronic changes related to waist fracture of the
scaphoid. Hand Surgery was consulted, and a dedicated right
wrist XR was ordered.
The patient was seen by Hand Surgery on HD3, and given the
tenderness over the right anatomic snuffbox, was placed in a
thumb spica splint for ___ days until outpatient follow up
with repeat imaging. For ___ digit distal phalanx fracture, the
digit was taped in extension and instructed to keep the splint
in place for 6 weeks. If the splint is to be removed, the
patient was counseled on keeping his right fifth DIP in
extension. Dedicated right wrist XR showed osseous irregularity
and spurring about the scaphoid waist suggestive of prior old
injury, with no acute fracture or dislocation.
On HD3, the pigtail catheter was also put to water seal, with no
pneumothorax identified on repeat CXR. On HD4, repeat CXR showed
a small apical 1.5 cm pneumothorax after the chest tube was kept
to water seal overnight, but given its small size, the patient
was advanced to a clamp trial. Repeat CXR after 4 hr clamp trial
showed no change in pneumothorax, and the chest tube remained
clamped overnight. On HD 5, repeat CXR after overnight clamp
trial showed minimal decrease in the pneumothorax, and the
pigtail was pulled and an occlusive dressing placed.
Pain was well controlled. Diet was progressively advanced as
tolerated to a regular diet with good tolerability. The patient
voided without problem. During this hospitalization, the patient
ambulated early and frequently, was adherent with respiratory
toilet and incentive spirometry, and actively participated in
the plan of care. The patient received subcutaneous heparin and
venodyne boots were used during this ___
The patient was seen by Social Work, who determined he was safe
for discharge to home. The patient was evaluated by ___ and OT,
who recommended home with no services. The patient was then
deemed ready for discharge to home. At the time of discharge,
the patient was doing well, afebrile with stable vital signs.
The patient was tolerating a regular diet, ambulating, voiding
without assistance, and pain was well controlled. The patient
was discharged home without services. The patient received
discharge teaching and follow-up instructions with understanding
verbalized and agreement with the discharge ___ He was
scheduled for outpatient follow up with the ___ (for
removal of his staples and follow up of his left 5th rib
fracture) and his PCP, and provided with the phone number for
the Hand Surgery clinic to arrange follow up ___ days after
discharge with repeat imaging.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
You were admitted to ___ after
a trauma with multiple stab wounds and a left 5th rib fracture.
Your stab wounds were not found to be deep, and were managed
conservatively. Your stab wounds were cleaned out, some were
closed with staples or covered with clean dry gauze. On imaging,
you were found to have a small amount of air in your chest due
to the rib fracture, and a chest tube was placed to remove it.
Repeat chest x-rays showed your lung was fully expanded, and
your chest tube was pulled on hospital day 4 without issue. CT
of your head/neck showed no fractures, and you were cleared from
the C-collar.
You were also found to have bruising of your right ___ finger
and tenderness over the base of your right thumb, and an XR
showed a fracture of your ___ finger. You were seen by Hand
Surgery, and they gave you a splint for your thumb and taped
your ___ finger. Keep your splint in place until you are seen by
the hand service in follow up. You were seen and evaluated by
Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy, and they have cleared
you for discharge to home with no further services. You were
seen by Social Work, and they gave you resources about acute
stress and determined you were safe for discharge to home.
You are now tolerating a full diet, ambulating independently,
voiding without issue, breathing comfortably on room air, and
your pain is well-controlled on pain medications. You are now
deemed ready for discharge. Please follow the instructions below
to continue your recovery:
Please follow up in the Acute Care Surgery clinic at the
appointment listed below.
RIB FRACTURES:
* Your injury caused a left 5th 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).
ACTIVITY:
o Do not drive until you have stopped taking pain medicine and
feel you could respond in an emergency.
o You may climb stairs.
o You may go outside, but avoid traveling long distances until
you see your surgeon at your next visit.
o 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 wounds are 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 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 For your chest tube dressing, tomorrow you may shower with
your water proof dressing.
o You may remove the chest tube dressing 3 days after your
discharge from the hospital.
o Your wounds may be slightly red around the staples. This is
normal.
o You may gently wash away dried material around your wounds.
o Avoid direct sun exposure to the wound area.
o Do not use any ointments on the wound 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.
MEDICATIONS:
Please resume all regular home medications, unless specifically
advised not to take a particular medication. Also, please take
any new medications as prescribed. If you have any questions
about what medicine to take or not to take, please call your

<b> Study Date of ___ 10:34 ___ Radiology Report
CHEST (PA & LAT) </b>
FINDINGS: No definite focal consolidation is seen. No large
pleural
effusion. The cardiac silhouette is at least mildly enlarged.
No
pneumothorax. No overt pulmonary edema. Subtle early
appearance of
eight-shaped vertebra involving the thoracic spine, correlate
with history of
sickle cell disease. Right upper quadrant surgical clips are
from presumed
cholecystectomy.
IMPRESSION: Mildly enlarged cardiac silhouette without overt
pulmonary edema.
<b> ___ CXR: Final Report </b>
INDICATION: Chest pain and shortness of breath. Evaluate for
PE. The
patient has history of sickle cell disease.
COMPARISON: None.
TECHNIQUE: Contiguous helical MDCT images were obtained through
the chest
after administration of 100 cc of Omnipaque IV contrast.
Multiplanar axial,
coronal, sagittal and maximum intensity projection oblique
images were
generated.
TOTAL BODY DLP: 149 mGy-cm.
FINDINGS: There is no supraclavicular, axillary, or mediastinal
lymphadenopathy. A borderline 1 cm right hilar lymph node is of
unclear
clinical significance. The heart is mildly enlarged, but
without pericardial
effusion. The aorta and main pulmonary arteries are normal in
caliber. There
are no appreciable atherosclerotic calcifications of the
coronary arteries.
There is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax. There is mild
bibasilar
atelectasis. 7 mm irregular opacity in the right upper lobe may
reflect
scarring. There is an indeterminant 9 mm ground-glass opacity
in the lingula
(3:125). The airways are patent to the subsegmental level.
<b> CTA CHEST </b>
: The aorta and great vessels are normally opacified. The
pulmonary
arteries are opacified to the subsegmental level without
evidence of pulmonary
embolism.
OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: H-shaped appearance of the vertebrae is
compatible with
known sickle cell disease.
This study is not designed for evaluation of the
subdiaphragmatic structures;
however, the spleen is shrunken to 2.9 x 1.1 cm and compatible
with
auto-infarction.
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism.
2. Mild cardiomegaly.
3. 9 mm ground-glass opacity in the lingula should be followed
up in six
months.
4. H-shaped vertebrae and auto infarction of the spleen
compatible with known
sickle cell disease.
The study and the report were reviewed by the staff radiologist.
<b> ___ 9:11:04 ___ ECG </b>
Artifact is present. Sinus rhythm. There are Q waves in the
inferior leads
consistent with infarction. There are Q waves in the
anterolateral leads and

Brief Hospital Course:
___ yo M with a history of sickle cell disease who presented with
sudden onset chest pain with radiation down his arms and
dyspnea, found to have elevated troponin.
ACTIVE ISSUES
# Chest pain/NSTEMI: The patient's initial story was concerning
for cardiac etiology and troponin peaked at 0.45. CTA was
negative for PE. It's unclear whether the patient's myocardial
infarction was secondary to plaque rupture or vaso-occlusion due
to sickling. EKG showed old q-waves but no acute changes. The
chest pain resolved shortly after admission without any
intervention. Patient was discharged on aspirin and statin for
now due to possibility that this was a plaque rupture MI. He
will follow-up with cardiology to discuss stress testing as an
outpatient.
#Sickle cell: Pt presented with Hct ~22, which per pt is
baseline; however, reticulocyte count was markedly elevated
(26.2) and TBili and Hapto is low, implying increased hemolysis
consistent with sickle cell crisis. Patient placed on
maintenance IV fluids, Hydroxyurea 500 mg qd, Hydromorphone 4 mg
PO prn pain, 5 mg Folic acid, O2 NC.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
[] CXR revealed 9 mm ground-glass opacity in the lingula. Should
have follow-up imaging in six months.
[] Cardiology to arrange subsequent stress testing to determine
likelihood of ACS versus other etiologies of chest pain

IMAGING:
TTE ___
Conclusions
The left atrium is elongated. No atrial septal defect is seen by
2D or color Doppler. Left ventricular wall thicknesses are
normal. The left ventricular cavity is mildly dilated. Overall
left ventricular systolic function is mildly depressed (LVEF= 45
%) with mild global hypokinesis most prominent in the mid to
distal inferior/infero-lateral walls. There is no ventricular
septal defect. Right ventricular chamber size is normal. with
borderline normal free wall function. The aortic root is mildly
dilated at the sinus level. The ascending aorta is mildly
dilated. The aortic arch is mildly dilated. The aortic valve
leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet
excursion and no aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. The
estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. There is
a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion. There are no
echocardiographic signs of tamponade.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of ___, LV
systolic dysfunction is new.
CTA ___
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism.
2. Ill-defined nodular opacities within the right middle and
lower lobes may
represent early pneumonia.
3. Moderate to severe cardiomegaly.
4. Small right greater than left layering simple pleural
effusions.
5. Anterior mediastinal soft tissue may represent thymic
hyperplasia,
unchanged since prior exam.
TTE ___
Conclusions
The left atrium is mildly dilated. The estimated right atrial
pressure is ___ mmHg. Left ventricular wall thicknesses are
normal. The left ventricular cavity is mildly dilated. Regional
left ventricular wall motion is normal. Overall left ventricular
systolic function is normal (LVEF>55%). The estimated cardiac
index is normal (>=2.5L/min/m2). 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. Trace aortic regurgitation is
seen. The mitral valve appears structurally normal with trivial
mitral regurgitation. There is no mitral valve prolapse. The
estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. There is
a very small pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Mild left ventricular cavity dilation with normal
regional and global biventricular systolic function.
Compared with the report of the prior study (images unavailable
for review) of ___, regional left ventricular systolic
function apears normal and trace aortic regurgitation is now
seen.
If clinically indicated, a cardiac MRI would be better able to
assess regional left ventricular function and to assess for
possible prior infarction of the inferior wall.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS:
Based on ___ AHA endocarditis prophylaxis recommendations, the
echo findings indicate prophylaxis is NOT recommended. Clinical
decisions regarding the need for prophylaxis should be based on
clinical and echocardiographic data.
Brief Hospital Course:
___ y.o. man with sickle cell disease previously complicated by
osteonecrosis and priaprism and multiple episodes of acute pain
crises and NSTEMI in ___ presents with L-sided chest pain
and hand pain and found to have NSTEMI.

without ST segment changes. Trop 0.01 -> 0.62-> 0.74->0.5. CTA
negative for PE. TTE mildly depressed (LVEF= 45 %) with mild
global hypokinesis most prominent in the mid to distal
inferior/infero-lateral walls. Concerning for NSTEMI with the
focal hypokinesis but unclear if coronary or microvascular
event. He was medically treated with heparin infusion for 48
hours and continued on his home aspirin as well as atorvastatin
80mg daily. Patient declined to undergo LHC during this
hospitalization and preferred to be followed as outpatient by
his cardiology clinic. He was discharged on aspirin and
atorvastatin.
# Sickle Cell Disease/Pain Crisis: Patient's pain crises usually
manifest as back and knee pain. Current pain appears to be
different. Neuro exam unremarkable for weakness, making CVA less
likely. No obvious trigger, H/H stable 10.3/___.6, LDH 848, TBili
4.0. He was given IV fluids, supplemental O2 and dilaudid PCA
for pain control. He was continued on his home hydroxyurea and

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. ___,
It was a pleasure caring for you during your hospitalization at
the ___. As you know, you were
admitted with chest and left arm pain. We did tests which showed
some heart injury and possibly a small heart attack likely from
not enough oxygen due to your sickle cell disease. We treated
you with oxygen, fluids, and pain medications. We also have you
aspirin, cholesterol medications, and a blood thinner called
heparin. We did an ultrasound which showed decreased pumping
function and some areas of heart muscle not moving well. We
repeated the heart ultrasound which showed the decreased
function had not improved.
Please take your medications as instructed. Please followup with
your primary care doctor and cardiologist regarding a possible
left heart catheterization to see if there is a blockage in one
of your coronary arteries. Please also follow up with your
hematologist. If you develop any chest pain, back pain,
shortness of breath, palpitations, or lightheartedness, please
seek medical attention urgently.
Sincerely,

Brief Hospital Course:
___ with hx of sickle cell disease complicated by NSTEMI,
recurrent sick cell crises, iron overload, priapism presenting
with low back and bilateral knee pain x24 hours.
This was felt to likely reflect vasoocclusive crisis in setting
of known sickle cell disease. Trigger may be stress related to
MVA. No suggestion of infection or ACS on initial workup. No
evidence of acute chest syndrome. Pain could also have been
related to musculoskeletal strain in the setting of recent MVA.
Of note, on presentation, Hgb < 6 (transfusion goal is 6). He
was transfused 1 unit of pRBCs with bump in H/H. Pain largely
resolved with this treatment. He was discharged on HD2. At the
time of discharge, pain was controlled on his home pain regimen.
He was instructed to follow up closely with his PCP and
hematologist.
Of note, pt does have chronic hypoxia. Last seen by Dr. ___
___ ___, at which time she advised repeat ABG on RA with
simultaneous recording of pulse oximetry, and
carboxy/methemoglobin measurements, V/Q scan to evaluate for
chronic macro/microthrombotic disease. VQ scan done in ___ and
interpreted as low probability for PE. At risk for pulmonary
hypertension in setting of sickle cell disease. He should follow
up in pulmonary clinic.
Also, per PCP ___, "CT scan ___ and ___ with RUL
ground glass and left lingular nodule. ___, CT per my
conversation with radiology said lesions are stable. Nonsmoker
with low malignancy risk." Plan was for additional chest CT,
which may be done as outpatient.

___ man with sickle cell disease complicated by multiple VOC's,
NSTEMI x2, presenting with back pain, leg pain, epistaxis, and
Hb: 4.3 1 week after AMA discharge from ___ medicine likely
___ recurrent/inadequately treated VOC.
# Sickle Cell Vasoocclusive Crisis:
Back pain and leg pain similar to prior episodes of VOC in
setting of objective findings of hemolysis with Hb of 4.3,
elevated LDH, TBili and Hapto <10. No signs of infection and Cx
negative. No evidence of acute chest syndrome without
infiltrates
on CXR or chest pain. Left AMA from ___ appx 1 week ago and
did not f/u for repeat ___ despite MD recommendations otherwise.
No signs of infection throughout admission (UA, CXR negative, pt
afebrile, resolved leukocytosis and no localizing symptoms). For
initial presenting Hb he was transfused two units pRBCs with
appropriate bump in H/H. Pain was controlled with Dilaudid PCA
which was increased to 0.18 q6min, no basal, Toradol 15mg q6H
and initially home MS contin which was then increased to 45 mg
PO Q12H given reported poor outpatient pain control at baseline.
Daily hemolysis labs revealed ongoing improvement in hemolysis
with time, oxygen, blood transfusion and hydration with
hypotonic fluids ___ NS) as maintenance. No antibiotics were
given due to lack of evidence for infectious source and no
evidence of acute chest syndrome. Folate was increased to 5mg po
daily and we discussed reinitiation of hydroxyurea. He has not
been taking Hydroxyurea for some time, though has
been on in the past. Obviously important he restart this
medication at some point though he is resistant to due to leg
ulcerations. Hematology was consulted who overall agreed with
plan but recommended against starting Hydroxyurea in house while
in acute VOC. We also discussed with patient regarding obtaining
home O2, has pulmonary hypertension already and was supposed to
follow up with Dr. ___ specialist) but never did. Home
O2 may reduce risk of recurrent VOC by reducing risk of
hypoxemia though patient adamant against home O2, however
ambulatory sats while inpatient were 94-96% on RA. With time and
conservative care his crisis resolved and pain was controlled
with higher dose of PO Morphine SR 45mg PO BID. He was
discharged with instructions to restart Hydroxyurea, presciption
provided, and follow up with Dr. ___.
# Epistaxis:
Reportedly evaluated by heme/onc in the recent past and felt to
be anterior bleed. No e/o ongoing bleed during inpatient stay.
Acute blood loss could also be contributing to VOC. Given a
script for Afrin per patients request on discharge.
# Hypoxemia:
Chronic hypoxemia thought related to pulmonary HTN. Not on home
O2, baseline sats low 90's on RA. As above, resistant to using
home O2. Supplemental O2 while in house though he remained in
94-96% range while on RA even with ambulation.
CHRONIC ISSUES:
===============
# Hx of NSTEMI:
In the setting of acute sickle crisis, unclear to me that he
needs to be on a statin since unlikely acute plaque rupture,
however he has been taking as an outpatient. Continued home
atorvastatin and aspirin
# GERD:
Continued omeprazole
Transitional Issues:
- Name of health care proxy: ___ (mother) Phone
number: ___
- ___ to restart Hydroxyurea though he is resitant to
taking this medication due to ulcerations. Provided a script and
has follow up scheduled with hematologist

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. ___ is a ___ year old man with Hb SS disease who presents
with abdominal pain & diarrhea, as well as leukocytosis and
anemia, with evidence of colitis on CT abdomen/pelvis.
ACTIVE ISSUES
# Colitis: Etiology thought to be infectious vs. ischemic. No
blood in stool and guaiac negative in ED. Fevers and
leukocytosis favored infectious etiology (though possibly
ischemic vs vaso-occlusive crisis). Distribution favored
watershed infarct. Abdomen rather benign on exam. Surgery
evaluated patient in ED and recommended conservative medical
management. Patient was given aggressive IV hydration, as well
as empiric ciprofloxacin and metronidazole to cover for possible
infectious colitis. C. diff PCR was negative. Stool studies
pending on discharge, though diarrhea (initially present on
admission) resolved with antibiotic therapy. He tolerated
regular diet prior to discharge. Leukocytosis resolved. He is
discharged with plan for 7 days of antibiotic therapy through
___.
# Sickle cell disease
# Vaso-occlusive crisis
# Pain crisis: Patient presented with anemia, diffuse body pain,
and evidence of hemolysis with low haptoglobin, elevated LDH &
indirect bilirubin and reticulocytosis. There was no evidence of
cerebral or coronary involvement; as such, exchange pheresis not
performed on admission. Patient received IVF hydration, and
transfused 2uPRBC given his anemia for goal Hgb>7. Pain managed
with PO Tylenol, PO hydromorphone, and ketorolac. After transfer
from FICU to the medicine floor he had worsening bone pain and
was treated for one day on PCA. His pain quickly improved and he
was transitioned back to his home pain regimen, which he
tolerated well prior to discharge. Of note, he has not reliably
been taking hydroxyurea as an outpatient. The patient's primary
hematologist was emailed on discharge to discuss timing of
re-initiation and PCP ___.
Transitional:
- Continue cipro/flagyl through ___
- Awaiting recommendation from hematology regarding timing of
re-initiation of hydroxyurea

History of Present Illness:
Mr. ___ is a ___ with SCD (not on hydroxyurea) who presents
with extreme back pain requiring ICU admission for SVT to 160s
and Ketamine gtt and found to have acute chest syndrome during
his inpatient stay.
He reported to the ED that he began to experience lower back
pain one day prior to admission. It then spread to multiple
joints, most prominently his knees. Of note, on arrival to ___,
he only reported having had pain in back. Pain was ___. He
takes dilaudid 4mg 10x/day at home for his pain, and per review
of outpatient records, this has not been providing him with
adequate pain relief. He denies any shortness of breath, chest
pain, or fevers. He has had chronic lower extremity ulcers and
was seen by dermatology ___ who prescribed dicloxacillin 500mg
q6h x7 days for infection.
Of note, he has had inconsistent follow-up with hematology and
is not on hydroxyurea as an outpatient due to concerns regarding
side effects, and per chart review, believes his brother (who
had received a BM transplant) may have died from a hydroxyurea
complication. He is prescribed deferasirox for iron overload
from numerous transfusions. Per chart review, he has also been
having housing difficulties recently, and it appears he may be
inconsistently filling his medications.
In ED initial VS: 97.1, 88, 142/77, 24, 93% RA, had reported
runs of SVT to 170
Labs significant for: WBC 30.5, Hgb 5.9, Plt 201, Trp <0.01, Cr
0.8, LDH 1496, TB 4.8, Lactate 1.3
He received: 5mg IV dilaudid, 30mg ketorolac, 1L LR, 500mg
azithromycin, and was started on a ketamine gtt.
He was started on O2 for a pulse ox reading of 84 on room air
and admitted to the MICU with concern for acute chest syndrome.
Imaging notable for:
- CXR: No acute intrathroacic process. Stable moderate
cardiomegaly
Consults: None
VS prior to transfer: 98.2, 88, 127/71, 16, 99% 5L NC

IMAGING:
==========
___ CHEST (PORTABLE AP)
In comparison with the study ___, the there is little
change.
Continued enlargement of the cardiac silhouette with
indistinctness of
pulmonary vessels consistent with elevated pulmonary venous
pressure.
Retrocardiac opacification with obscuration of the hemidiaphragm
is consistent with substantial volume loss in the left lower
lobe and probable pleural effusion. There is probably also a
small effusion at the right base. Although no focal
consolidation is identified, given the changes described above
would be extremely difficult to exclude superimposed
aspiration/pneumonia in the appropriate clinical setting,
especially in the absence of a lateral view.
___ CTA CHEST
1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism in the main, right, left,
lobar or
segmental pulmonary arteries.
2. Small bilateral pleural effusions.
3. Opacification of the lung parenchyma in the lower lobes may
be secondary to compressive atelectasis although acute chest
syndrome cannot be excluded.
4. Global cardiomegaly, bony sclerosis, H-shaped vertebral
bodies and absence of the spleen consistent with sequela of
sickle cell disease.
MICRO:
=====
No pertinent culture data; UCx and Blood Cx negative
MRSA swab nares negative

___ ECHO:
he left atrium is normal in size. No atrial septal defect is
seen by 2D or color Doppler. Left ventricular wall thickness,
cavity size, and global systolic function are normal (LVEF>55%).
Due to suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion
abnormality cannot be fully excluded. There is no ventricular
septal defect. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall
motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear
structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic
stenosis or aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve appears
structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. The
tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no
pericardial effusion.
CXR:
FINDINGS:
A Dobhoff tube is seen in the left stomach. The lungs appear
clear without focal consolidation. There is no pulmonary edema,
pneumothorax, or pleural effusion. The cardiomediastinal
silhouette and hilar contours appear normal. There is diffuse
regular thickening of the small bowel loops in the visualized
upper abdomen, which can be seen in hypoproteinemia. There is
paucity of soft tissues/fat, possibly due to malnutrition.
IMPRESSION:
The Dobhoff tube is seen in the left stomach.

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old woman with history of
anorexia/bulimia, surreptitious laxative use, hypothyroidism,
and chronic kidney disease, who is admitted for bilateral flank
pain, dysuria and fevers, admitted for management of UTI and
severe anion gap metabolic acidosis, with course notable for
severe malnutrition requiring Dobhoff placement and monitoring
in the ICU for re-feeding syndrome.
#SEVERE PROTEIN CALORIE MALNUTRITION:
Patient presented weighing 28 kg with a BMI of 10. Presentation
secondary to long standing history of anorexia/bulimia. She was
initiated on tube feeds and high risk for re-feeding syndrome.
Given the severity of her illness she was at high risk for
mortality during this admission. This was communicated to the
patient and family. Multidisciplinary team meeting was held with
psychiatry, nutrition, social work, and nursing staff. She was
admitted to the ICU for strict monitoring, electrolytes were
repleted as needed, and there were no major complications. She
was transferred to the medical floor where tube feeds were
continued. She pulled out her dobhoff tube and refused to have
it replaced. Extensive discussions were held with the patient,
her HCP and her sister. Given her long-standing refusal to
receive appropriate psychiatric treatment and persistent refusal
to have dobhoff replaced decision was made to discharge home on
hospice services. Discussed ___ form with patient, HCP and
sister. She did not want to sign a ___ form, family to
discuss with her further.
-Discharged to home hospice
-Counseled family on importance of signing ___ form
___ on CKD, stage IV-V:
CKD stage IV-V due to microvascular disease and tubular atrophy
resulting from chronic hypokalemia and other electrolyte
abnormalities. She has not had follow up in over ___ year. Current
creatinine is an underestimation of the
severity of her renal failure in light of her low muscle mass.
Acidemia resolved with bicarbonate drip and creatinine
continued to improve over the hospitalization to 0.9-1.2.
#HYPERCALCEMIA:
Patient initially presented with hypercalcemia, likely secondary
to severe dehydration. Resolved with fluids.
#ANEMIA:
Patient presented with hemoglobin of 11, then to 6.6 after IVF
repletion. Likely secondary to bone marrow suppression in the
setting of severe malnutrition. No evidence of bleed at this
time. Required 4 units of blood during her prior admission ___
year ago. Given 1 unit with good response and then held stable
between Hgb 7 to 9.
#HYPOTHYROIDISM:
Patient presents with low TSH, low T4. Concern at this time for
central hypothyroidism vs anorexia related thyroid dysfunction.
During her last admission she was evaluated by endocrinology
given similar presentation who at that time felt that she had
anorexia-related hypothyroidism. Her previous dose of exogenous
levothyroxine was actually acting to raise her metabolic rate
and worsen her malnutrition. She was seen by endocrine who
recommended increased dose Levothyroxine to ensure adequate
absorption given that she was on tube feeds. Once tube feeds
were stopped she was put back on Levothyroxine 75 mcg daily.
-Consider repeat thyroid function tests in two weeks if within
goals of care
# ACUTE TOXIC ENCEPHALOPATHY - due to malnutrition, electrolyte
abnormalities, hypothyroidism. She displayed poor insight into
her condition. For this reason, her HCP was activated who
assisted in the medical decision making. Mental status slowly
improved to baseline.
#Dispo: home with hospice services
