Service: CARDIAC SURGERY
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a 63 year old male with
a history of hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, who had new
onset of exertional shortness of breath and was shoveling
snow this past [**Month (only) 1096**]. The patient saw his primary care
physician who referred the patient for exercise treadmill
test which was done on [**2159-2-28**], and showed ejection fraction
of 47%, minimal left ventricular reversible dilatation and
moderately severe inferolateral reversible defect and
inferolateral hypokinesis. The patient was then referred for
cardiac catheterization. His catheterization was done on
[**2159-3-16**], and showed an ejection fraction of approximately
50%, left internal mammary artery of approximately 50% distal
and left anterior descending of approximately 80% distal
stenosis and 80% stenosis at D1, 50% at mid diagonal, left
circumflex total occlusion, 60% before left posterior
descending artery and right coronary artery 70% ostial and
total occlusion of mid. The patient was then evaluated for
coronary artery bypass graft.
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY:
1. Hypertension.
2. Hypercholesterolemia.
3. Status post brain abscess, on prophylaxis with Tegretol
secondary to lung infection.
4. Status post gastrointestinal bleed and partial gastric
resection.

male in no apparent distress. Heart rate is 66, blood
pressure 134/90, respiratory rate 19, oxygen saturation 95%
in room air. The pupils are equal, round, and reactive to
light and accommodation. Extraocular movements are intact.
The pharynx was clear. Examination of the neck revealed
supple neck, no jugular venous distention, no bruits, and
carotid pulses 1+ bilaterally. Examination of the lungs
revealed lungs clear to auscultation bilaterally.
Examination of the heart revealed regular rate and rhythm,
without murmurs, rubs or gallops. Examination of the abdomen
revealed positive bowel sounds, soft, nontender,
nondistended, well healed midline supraumbilical incision.
Extremities showed no cyanosis, clubbing or edema. Dorsalis
pedis and posterior tibial pulses were 2+ bilaterally.
Radial artery pulses were 2+ bilaterally. Neurologically,
the patient was awake, alert and oriented times three.
Sensory and motor examinations were grossly intact.
HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was admitted to the Cardiac
Surgery service and underwent coronary artery bypass graft
times three, left internal mammary artery to left anterior
descending, saphenous vein graft to diagonal, saphenous vein
graft to posterior descending artery. The patient's mean
arterial pressure on transfer to the recovery room was 70,
central venous pressure was 12. The patient was in normal
sinus rhythm at 80 beats per minute. The patient was on
Propofol drip titrated.
On postoperative day number one, the patient was on
Neo-Synephrine drip of 0.6 with low grade fever of 100;
otherwise 90s. Normal sinus rhythm. Arterial blood gas was
7.41, 37, 88, 24 and 0, oxygen saturation 94% in room air.
He was otherwise doing well. The patient was weaned off the
Neo-Synephrine and chest tubes were removed. On
postoperative day number two, the patient remained afebrile
with stable vital signs. White blood cell count was 14.6 and
hematocrit was 23.9. The patient required some
Neo-Synephrine for pressure support. On postoperative day
number three, the patient was completely off Neo-Synephrine
and the patient had previously received blood for low
hematocrit. Pulse was at 104, good pressure, saturating
well. White blood cell count was down to 9.1 and hematocrit
was 24.2. He was otherwise doing well. The patient was
started on Lasix and was transferred to the floor in stable
condition. On postoperative day number four, the patient had
a low grade temperature of 100.3 and otherwise was doing
well. He was in sinus rhythm, was taking good p.o. and
making good urine. The patient's wires were removed.
Metoprolol was increased to 25 mg twice a day. On
postoperative day number five, the patient was complaining of
not having any bowel movements. He was otherwise doing well.
Pulse was 91, and blood pressure was 116/59. He was taking
good p.o. and making good urine. The patient was given
Magnesium Citrate which helped to have a bowel movement. On
postoperative day number six, the patient was doing well,
remained afebrile with stable vital signs and the white blood
cell count was 7.6, hematocrit 26.6, platelet count 261,000

crampy lower abdominal pain which is new for her.
The shortness of breath is worse with exertion and especially
going up stairs, as well as worsened by supine position, but
this has been building for about one month. She specifically
denies chest pain or discomfort.
She was recently admitted to the medical service [**Date range (1) 24726**]

Brief Hospital Course:
In summary, Mrs. [**Known lastname 7474**] is a 75 y/o female with advanced CKD and
ostomy, admitted with marked anion gap academia in setting of
increased ostomy output and some worsening of renal failure.
Anion Gap Acidosis. delta delta initially favoring slight mixed
gap-nongap component, no osmolar gap. Lactate normal. Likely
related to worsening of renal failure and increased ostomy
output . Does have a significantly low baseline (mid teens)
likely related to CKD and possibly RTA. Urine lytes and gap c/w
RTA.
- Hold further bicarb IV for now, likely restart PO bicarb.
will d/w renal.
- Management of CKD below.
ACUTE ON CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE, CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE STAGE V.
Worsened 3.0 ?????? 3.9 without appreciable drop in urine output
according to the patient and husband. Now with improvement to
3.3.
- Awaiting renal's decision re: initiation of HD timing
- If HD this admit will need access; likely tunneled line; has
seen transplant as outpatient for access options.
INCREASED OSTOMY OUTPUT
- consider c.diff enteritis given recent antibiotics, elevated
WBC which responded with flagyl initiation, though would be rare
to have enteritis without colon.
- Continue IV flagyl for now
- Check stool culture and c.diff (2nd today).
ANEMIA. Dropping steadily since admit; hct 22 today (30 at
admit). No obvious bleeding source or hematoma. Baseline B12
deficiency (repleted), MDS, CKD.
- check hemolysis panel today (?history of this in the past per
notes from several years ago)
- T&S, would not transfuse unless <21
- Consider restart of epo - both MDS and significant CKD.
- Guaiac ostomy output.
DYSPNEA. Mostly exertional; likely related to acidemia and need
for significant respiratory compensation for metabolic acidosis.
Lungs clear on exam and imaging; oxygenating well.
- Treatment of acidosis as above
► CELLULITIS. unclear if this is a new finding of
infection or related to venous stasis. Was being managed by
derm as outpatient for venous stasis.
- Received 1000mg IV Vancomycin in the ED, would continue given
her improvement. Add on vanco level today
- Continue topical antifungal powder
- Bilat LE ultrasounds to r/o collections - done, negative for
collections.
UTI. +U/A, cipro started. Culture not sent at the time of UA
- check culture
- continue cipro x ~7 day course.
MACROCYTOSIS. Ongoing x years. Does have history of B12
deficiency, getting monthly IM replacement and normal B12 (and
folate) levels here. Also with history of ?MDS, followed by Dr.
[**Last Name (STitle) 2148**] in the past.
HYPERTENSION. Normotensive currently
- Holding CCBs with peripheral edema; will monitor today and
possible restart.
CAD
- ?On aspirin daily ?????? will check into
GERD
- continue protonix 40mg [**Hospital1 **] (on at home)
MICU Course:
Patient noted to have shortness of breath in setting of low
bicarb and ongoing diarrhea. Likely secondary to worsening
renal failure and increased ostomy output. Patient initially
treated with IV bicarb, but as bicarb corrected, this was
stopped. Noted to have elevated WBC so treated with vanco for
cellulitis (b/l thigh cellulitis clinically improving on vanco),
cipro for positive ua (UCx not sent), and flagyl for increased
ostomy output (though patient is s/p colectomy for UC which has
improved with flagyl). Renal is still deciding whether or not
dialysis will be initiated.

report for further details. He received cefazolin for
perioperative antibiotics and was transferred to the intensive
care unit for post operative management. In the first twenty
four hours he was weaned from sedation, awoke neurologically
intact, and was extubated without complications. He continued
to progress and early am of postoperative day two he went into
rapid atrial fibrillation that was treated with IV Lopressor, IV
Diltiazem, and increased Sotalol and he converted back to sinus
rhythm in afternoon. He had another episode of atrial
fibrillation which converted to sinus rhythm on POD # 4 after
treatment. Chest tubes and pacing wires were removed per caridac
surgery protocol. On POD 6 he was coughing and went to get up
from his chair and fell forward on his face and head. He
remained neurologically intact and his head CT was negative for
intracranial bleed. Plastic surgery was consulted and used
Dermabond for facial laceration closure. He continued to do well
and physical therapy worked with him on strength and mobility.
On POD 7 he was in sinus rhythm and taken off Diltiazem drio and
converted to long acting po Cardizem. It was decided not to
anticoagulate since patient was in sinus rhythm at the time of
discharge. He was ambulating in the halls with assistance,
tolerating a full oral diet and a his incision was healing well.
He was discharged home with VNA services and all appropriate
follow up appointments were made.

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 57 year old
woman with a history of viral myocarditis at age 11 as well
as a history of multiple abdominal surgeries including a
Billroth II procedure, partial vagotomy and partial
gastrectomy in [**2153**]. She had a Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy
for poor gastric emptying in [**2156**]. In [**2160**] she had
transverse colon volvulus and had a hemicolectomy with an
ileosigmoid anastomosis. In [**2161**] she had a procedure for
lysis of intra-abdominal adhesions and was admitted to the
Cardiac Medicine Service on [**10-7**] with chest pain. The
patient also presented with eight days of nausea, vomiting
and weakness as well as decreased p.o. intake. On
electrocardiogram at the time of admission she had marked ST
elevations of 5 cm in V3 through V6. She was taken to the
Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory on [**10-7**] which
revealed angiographically normal coronary arteries. Her left
ventriculogram showed an ejection fraction of 35% of unknown
origin although the patient has a history of viral
myocarditis at age 11. The patient had multiple
echocardiograms during her admission which showed an ejection
fraction of around 20 to 22% with severe global hypokinesis
and a normal left ventricular size, also 3+ tricuspid
regurgitation. After this, the patient continued to have
nausea, vomiting and developed abdominal pain. Then she
began to have peritoneal signs as well as coffee ground
emesis. She had a computerized tomography scan of the
abdomen which showed free air as well as free fluid in the
abdominal cavity. The patient was taken to Surgery on
[**10-9**]. At that time they noted a perforation of her
previous jejunojejunostomy secondary to an adhesive
obstruction. Procedure performed was a small bowel resection
with reanastomosis of various parts of the small bowel as
well as adhesiolysis. During the procedure, there were some
small bowel contents filled into the intra-abdominal cavity
and a Swan-Ganz catheter was placed.
Postoperatively the patient had a long course in the Surgery
Intensive Care Unit of approximately one month prior to being
transferred to the Medicine Intensive Care Unit on [**2164-11-9**]. The Surgery Intensive Care Unit course was notable
for worsening cardiomyopathy as well as a large fluid
requirement. Then the patient began to develop ascites,
bilateral pleural effusions as well as congestive heart
failure. She was diuresed. They performed thoracentesis of
both the left and right pleural space, both which were
sterile without evidence of infection. The patient completed
a course of Ampicillin, Ceftriaxone and Flagyl after the
operation. The patient also has been followed throughout her
course by Infectious Disease as well as Cardiology. The
patient had several courses of pneumonia. She first
developed a pneumonia with Senna Trepomonas. On [**10-18**],
her sputum culture revealed 2+ Senna Trepomonas which was
Levofloxacin sensitive as well as 2+ yeast. She was treated
for two weeks with Levofloxacin. After that she was
extubated, however, ended up being reintubated three days
later because of increasing secretions. They did more sputum
cultures on [**10-22**] and then she grew out Senna
Trepomonas as well as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus
aureus. She was treated for two weeks with a two week course
of Vancomycin. The patient also began to have some diarrhea.
They did multiple Clostridium difficile samplings. On
[**10-23**], her Clostridium difficile toxin was positive and
she was treated with a course of Flagyl. The patient was
again extubated after she seemed to be improving at the end
of [**Month (only) **]. However, after several days she again began to
fail and had to be reintubated on [**11-8**]. At that time
she was transferred to the Medicine Intensive Care Unit
Service.

gallops. Abdomen: She has decreased bowel sounds, however,
she was soft, nondistended with mild left lower quadrant
tenderness. No rigidity or guarding. Extremities: She had
no edema and 2+ pulses bilaterally.
LABORATORY DATA: Labs at the time of admission included a
white count of 21.9, hematocrit 49.6, platelets 567. Chem-7
Sodium was 129, potassium 3.1, chloride 85, bicarbonate 19,
BUN 52, creatinine 4.1 and glucose 111. Calcium was 6.5,
magnesium 1.3, CK 509, trended down to 350. Her chest x-ray
was negative. Electrocardiogram showed sinus with a rate of
100, left axis deviation, ST elevations inferiorly as well as
V3 through V6 of up to [**Street Address(2) 32524**] depression V1 through V2.
Right side leads were negative. Echocardiogram showed an
ejection fraction of 25%, severe global hypokinesis,
decreased left ventricular function and 1+ mitral
regurgitation.
HOSPITAL COURSE: [**Hospital Unit Name 196**] and Surgical Intensive Care Unit
course as above. The patient was transferred to Medicine
Intensive Care Unit on [**11-9**]. At the time of transfer
to our service the patient was afebrile. She had a pulse of
79, blood pressure 100/56 sating 100% on a ventilator set
with pressure support of 18 and positive end-expiratory
pressure of 5, FIO2 40%. Arterial blood gases at that time
on those settings was 7.49, 3.8, 156, 30. Her labs at the
time of transfer to us were white count 17.4 which was
trending down from 22.5. Her hematocrit was 29.3, platelets
350, sodium 134, potassium 4.3, chloride 99, bicarbonate 27,
BUN 38, creatinine 0.8, glucose 128, calcium 8.5, phosphorus
3.0 and magnesium 2.2. Her micro-data summarized for
hospital course, basically all her blood cultures were
negative. She had cultures done [**10-7**] times two,
[**10-17**] times three, [**10-18**] times two, [**10-20**]
times two and [**11-8**] times three. Her sputum cultures
as in history of present illness on [**10-18**] grew Senna
Trepomonas sensitive to Levofloxacin and yeast. [**10-21**]
was normal oropharyngeal Flora, [**10-22**] was Senna
Trepomonas Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus,
[**11-4**] Senna Trepomonas Methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus, [**11-8**] she had 2+ gram negative
rods and 1+ gram positive cocci. Urine cultures had evidence
of yeast and her stool was positive for Clostridium difficile
on [**10-23**], negative for Clostridium difficile times five
on all other testings. Pleural fluid samples on [**10-19**]
had polys no organisms, on [**11-3**] had neither polys nor
organisms. The patient was transferred to us with her main
issue being failure to wean from ventilator as well as
question of how to best manage her congestive heart failure
and cardiomyopathy. She also at that time was reported to
have increased white count and glucose as well as a history
of anxiety and benzodiazepine addiction. Medications on
transfer included intravenous Lasix prn, Lopressor,
Captopril, subcutaneous Heparin, Fioricet, Prozac, Levoxyl,
Klonopin, Haldol, TUMS, magnesium oxide, iron, Prevacid and
after transfer to our service we titrated up her Captopril,
we added Aldactone and we also added Digoxin. Throughout her
six days on our service her heart failure remained very well
compensated with no evidence of pulmonary congestion or lower
extremity edema. We tried to wean down her pressure support
over the first several days, however, the patient was not
able to successfully be weaned. On [**11-12**], the patient
had a tracheostomy placed at the bedside without any
complications. She continued to receive her tube feeds. She
had some slightly liquid stools, therefore we changed her
tube feeds to a tube feed with more fiber. Physical therapy
and occupational therapy interviewed the patient. It was
decided that after the tracheostomy the patient would need
time to let that heal so it was decided to just continue the
tube feeds and let her have a swallow evaluation and
otorhinolaryngology evaluation after discharge to a
rehabilitation facility. After tracheostomy was placed, we
checked mechanics, her NIF was 10, her vital capacity was
750, title volume 400 and her RISB was 42.5. She received
some Ultram from the tracheostomy pain. We weaned off her
Haldol. The patient remains stable and plan to change her
Lopressor and Captopril to a q. day medication.
DISCHARGE STATUS: Discharge to rehabilitation with
tracheostomy and nasogastric tube for tube feedings.
DISCHARGE CONDITION: Stable.

CHEST PORT. LINE PLACEMENT [**2102-7-3**] 11:53 AM
CHEST PORT. LINE PLACEMENT
Reason: PICC position?
[**Hospital 93**] MEDICAL CONDITION:
75 year old woman with encephalopathy, tracheostomy, admitted
for fever/UTI, now with new tachypnea, O2 desaturation
REASON FOR THIS EXAMINATION:
PICC position?
REASON FOR STUDY: Assessment of PICC line position in a patient
that is admitted with fever.
FINDINGS:
Tracheostomy tube is 6.3 cm above the carina. The right
subclavian line has its tip projecting over the mid SVC. There
is worsening of atelectasis and effusion in the left lower lobe.
The remainder of left lung and right lung is clear. There is no
pneumothorax. Mediastinum is widened; this might be due to
patient positioning. The hilar areas are congested. This is
unchanged compared to previous study.
IMPRESSION: New right PICC line in proper position. No
pneumothorax. Worsening left lung base atelectasis and effusion.
Brief Hospital Course:
1) Fever-
Patient was admitted with elevated WBC to 18 and UA indicative
of UTI. Patient recieved one dose of vancomycin prior to
admission. She was treated with levofloxacin for her UTI.
Pre-vancomycin blood cultures from [**Hospital3 **] hospital were
followed and grew 2/6 bottles of Strep pyogenes. The patient was
treated with vancomycin on admission and then switched to
Penicillin G for her Strep bacteremia. Penicillin G treatment
should continue for a total of 14 days, total ([**2102-7-7**] is day 10
of 14).
.
2) Respiratory status-
Patient's respiratory status on admission was stable.
Bronchoscopy was performed and reveal trach was in good position
and now upper or lower airway obstructions were present. No
modification of tracheostomy was deemed necessary. Patient
pulled out her trach tube was coded for respiratory distress and
transferred to the MICU. Following replacement of her trach,
she had no further issues respiratory wise until her total
thyroidectomy on [**2102-6-30**]. Prior to transfer to the floor
following her total thyroidectomy, she again became tachypnic
and was trasnferred to the SICU where she was placed on
mechanical ventilation. By POD 4 she was placed onto CPAP which
she tolerated well and was placed on trach mask on POD 6. Since
then she has been stable but requires suction of her trach
Q2-4hrs or prn.

7) Seizure prophylaxis -
Patient was kept at lower dose Leviracetam (Keppra) 500mg PO tid
per recommendation of [**Name6 (MD) **] attending MD, no seizure
activity was noted during the hospitalization. Neurology was
consulted in the SICU, and was not concerned that she may be
having seizures, but more likely tardive dyskinesia. They
obtained a EEg and recommends followup with neurology either and
[**Hospital1 **] or [**Hospital1 18**]. They will notify [**Hospital1 **] of the findings
of the EEG when available.

Brief Hospital Course:
The patient was admitted to the hospital and brought to the
operating room on [**2168-4-18**] where the patient underwent Emergent
coronary artery bypass grafting x4 with left internal mammary
artery to left anterior descending
artery, and reverse saphenous vein grafts to the right coronary
artery, first obtuse marginal artery and second obtuse marginal
artery. Overall the patient tolerated the procedure well and
post-operatively was transferred to the CVICU in stable
condition for recovery and invasive monitoring on low dose
vasopressors. The patient was extubated POD1, alert, oriented
and breathing comfortably. She was neurologically intact. She
was transfused 2 units of PRBC for HCT 24 to 29.0 She titrated
off pressors with SBP 95-100 hemodynamically stable. Low dose
beta-blockers were initiated and the patient was gently diuresed
toward the preoperative weight. The patient was transferred to
the telemetry floor for further recovery. Chest tubes and
pacing wires were discontinued without complication. The patient
was evaluated by the physical therapy service for assistance
with strength and mobility. By the time of discharge on POD 4
the patient was ambulating freely, the wound was healing and
pain was controlled with oral analgesics. The patient was
discharged home with VNA services in good condition with

Chief Complaint:
Altered mental status, tylenol overdose
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
22 F with history of ETOH abuse, IVDU of heroin, cocaine, and
unknown street drugs, bipolar disorder, transferred from [**Location (un) **] hospital with tylenol overdose. (The patient was not able to
give much of this history because of drowsiness, so much of this
history was given by her mother.) She took 15 tylenol pm last
night, sometime between evening and midnight. She usually takes
4 tylenol PM every night to help her sleep, but last night she
couldn't sleep, so she took 15 tylenol PM. According to her
mother, she took klonepin yesterday as well (her daughter had
told her she had taken it), but she doesn't know the amount.
Patient does not take any medications on home regimen.
.
According to the patient and her mother, the patient was not
taking 15 tylenol PM as a suicide attempt. The patient states
that she did not wish to hurt herself, but took the pills
because she couldn't sleep or rest. She said she usually takes
Tylenol PM and thought that taking more pills would increase the
effect of helping her sleep. She reports abdominal pain, aching
in her muscles "all over", sleepiness, "feel like I have the
flu".
.
Her mother had actually taken her to [**Hospital3 **] hospital 2 days
ago, on Sunday afternoon at 2:30 pm, because she was "acting
funny", sitting on the floor, not answering questions, looking
disheveled, acting belligerent and temperamental, which is very
uncharacteristic for the patient per mother. [**Name (NI) **] mother states
that her daughter "can be really difficult, but is the type who
will never leave the house without a perfectly matched outfit
and makeup". Her boyfriend and mother assumed that she was
"strung out on drugs". She was taken by ambulance to [**Hospital3 **]
hospital on Sunday at 2:30 pm and returned home by 7:30 pm from
the hospital. Her mother does not know what transpired during
her ED visit on Sunday. She was not with her daughter during
that hospital visit, but after she returned from the hospital,
her daughter seemed more back to her normal self per mother.
.
Late on Monday night, mother called ambulance since patient
seemed obtunded and ill. At OSH, she had vomiting, dry heaves,
nausea, restlessness; she was given zofran 8 mg IV. EMS found BG
32, was given D25; BG 162 on arrival to OSH; BG decreased to 70
and was given D50 on floor. AST >10,000, ALT >5,000, Cr 2.13,
TBili 4.8, DBili 2.9, Alk phos 127. ABG: 7.32 / 24 / 121 / 12 on
2L nc. She had an abdominal US and was found to have liver and
renal failure. She received NAC 7g load plus 2.5g by 4 am
Tuesday before being transferred to [**Hospital1 18**] ED.
.
In the [**Hospital1 18**] ED, vitals were T 97.7, HR 132, 105/47, RR 26, 100%
3L nc on admission. Hepatology was consulted and recommended 17
mg/kg/hr IV NAC infusion. Toxicology was also consulted. INR
14.1, liver enzymes pending, acetaminophen level was negative.
Received 2250 ml NS in ED, received [**2106**] ml NS at OSH. She was
transferred to MICU Green.
.
In subsequent information obtained from the patient's mother in
private: the patient has a history of bipolar disorder, she has
tried to slash her wrists in past suicide attempts, she refuses
all treatment and is noncompliant with medical recommendations
and medications, she has signed AMA out of a psychiatry
hospital, she has boyfriend with Hepatitis C, and she takes
heroin or any IV drugs whenever she has access.
.
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS:
Patient cannot answer questions due to obtundation. +abdominal
pain. +generalized pain which does not localize. No fever, no
chills, no vomiting, no diarrhea, no blood per rectum.
Past Medical History:
- ETOH abuse: 60 beers + 1 bottle rum + 1 bottle jagermeister
per week
- Hepatitis C
- Chronic tylenol PM use: 4 pills per night for at least the
past few years
- IV drug use: heroin, cocaine, possibly other drugs
- Illicit drug use: unprescribed klonepin, percocet
- Bipolar disorder: refuses medical treatment and signed out AMA
from psychiatric [**Hospital1 **]
- Previous suicide attempts: slashing wrists
Social History:
ETOH: Per mother, she drinks 60 beers ("at least two 30-packs"),
a bottle of rum, and some jagermeister per week. Her mother
estimates that the amount is more than that, since that is what
she witnesses herself, but she does not see what her daughter
drinks when she is out of the house. She drinks a beer every
morning before going to work, and she often skips work because
she is inebriated.
.
IV drugs: Per mother and patient, she has used heroin and
cocaine in the past.
.
Other drugs: She has a history of using percocet and klonopin
for non-medical reasons and without a prescription. Her mother
reports that it is very easy to gain access to these drugs in
her neighborhood.
.
ADLs: She works as a roofer for her father. She shows up to work
approximately 10-15 days out of each month because of her ETOH
and drug use, but she is able to keep her job because she works
for her father. She lives at home with her mother, who works
nights. Her mother states that "it's impossible to keep track of
her" and feels that since she is an adult at 22, she can lead
her own life. She has a boyfriend who has hepatitis C. She has
not been tested for HIV or hepatitis.

CXR [**2114-3-29**]:
The ET tube tip is 6 cm above the carina. The left internal
jugular line tip is terminating in the low SVC. There is no
pneumothorax or apical hematoma identified. The NG tube tip
terminates in the stomach.
There is no significant change in bilateral perihilar and lower
lobe consolidations. Small bilateral pleural effusion cannot be
excluded though there is no evidence of large pleural fluid.
.
CT Head/Chest/Abd/Pelv [**2114-3-29**]:
NON-CONTRAST HEAD CT: There is diffuse edema of the brain
parenchyma with loss of [**Doctor Last Name 352**]- white matter differentiation and
obliteration of the ventricular system. There is also
obliteration of all basilar cisterns. Obliteration of the pre-
mesencephalic space suggests bilateral uncal herniation.
Complete obliteration of ambient cistern suggests transtentorial
herniation. There is also complete obliteration of CSF space at
foramen magnum suggesting tonsillar herniation. No focal mass
lesion is seen. No major or minor vascular territorial infarct
is detected. No shift of normal midline structure is seen.
The surrounding bony and soft tissue structures are unremarkable
with no evidence of fracture. The maxillary sinuses are
normal.The ethmoid sinuses , frontal sinuses and Sphenoid
sinuses demonstrate mucosal thickening.
IMPRESSION: Severe diffuse brain edema with obliteration of all
CSF spaces with uncal, downward transtentorial and tonsillar
herniation.
.
CT chest [**2114-3-29**]:
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of acute bleeding is seen within the chest,
abdomen or pelvis to explain the patient unresponsiveness.
2. Small bilateral pleural effusions, more prominent on the left
side.
3. Bilateral ground-glass opacities and consolidations, centered
on the bronchovascular bundle, which may suggest aspiration
pneumonitis.
4. Anasarca and ascites.
.
TTE [**2114-3-27**]:
Conclusions:
The left atrium is normal in size. Left ventricular wall
thicknesses and
cavity size are normal. Regional left ventricular wall motion is
normal. Left ventricular systolic function is hyperdynamic
(EF>75%). Tissue Doppler imaging suggests a normal left
ventricular filling pressure (PCWP<12mmHg). Right ventricular
chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The aortic valve
leaflets appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion.
There is no valvular aortic stenosis. The increased transaortic
gradient is likely related to high cardiac output. No aortic
regurgitation is seen. There is no mitral valve prolapse. No
mitral regurgitation is seen. The pulmonary artery systolic
pressure could not be determined. There is no pericardial
effusion.
IMPRESSION: Hyperdynamic left ventricular function. Resting
tachycardia. No obvious structural valvular disease but
evaluation limited due to marked tachycardia.
.
Abdomen US [**2114-3-27**]:
IMPRESSION:
1. Normal-appearing liver without focal lesion identified.
2. Diffuse bilateral renal cortical echogenicity consistent with
diffuse parenchymal disease.
3. Gallbladder wall edema without evidence of acute
cholecystitis which may be seen with liver disease and
hypoalbuminemia.
Brief Hospital Course:
22 F with history of heavy ETOH abuse, HCV, IVDU of heroin,
cocaine, and unknown street drugs, bipolar disorder, transferred
from [**Hospital3 **] Hospital and admitted to MICU with tylenol
overdose, renal failure, and altered mental status, improved for
the first 3 days, then evolved to brain death due to brain
herniation.
.
# Acute fulminant liver failure:
Patient has a history of heavy ETOH abuse, HCV, with fulminant
liver failure precipitated by tylenol overdose. MELD was 50 with
a 98% predicted mortality on admission. Acetaminophen level was
negative, AST [**Numeric Identifier 29620**], ALT 9260, INR 14.1, TB 4.2 on admission.
She had been loaded with N-acetylcysteine IV infusion at [**Location (un) 21541**] Hospital, and then was transferred to the [**Hospital1 18**] ED.
Hepatology consult and Toxicology consult were called and gave
initial recommendations on NAC dosing.
.
In the MICU, 17 mg/kg/hr NAC per hour was started at the time of
admission. Her initial workup covered viruses, toxins, drugs,
autoimmune, shock liver, hemochromatosis, liver cancer, and
sepsis as an alternative impetus for liver failure. She was HBV
immune (HBsAb positive), HCV Ab positive, HIV negative, CMV
negative, Monospot negative, [**Doctor First Name **] negative, AFP negative, TIBC
low (229), ferritin >[**2106**] (inflammation). Urine toxin screen was
positive for cocaine. Serum toxin screen was negative (included
opiates, cocaine, benzodiazepines). TTE was ordered to assess
possibility of shock liver, in addition to assessment of flow
murmur on exam; TTE showed hyperdynamic LV systolic function
with EF > 75%. EKG showed sinus tachycardia. Patient was guaiac
positive with brown stool in the vault. Free calcium was 0.85
and was aggressively repleted. Normal serum glucose was
maintained with D50 and slow D5W infusion.
.
Hepatology consult assessed that the patient would not be a
liver transplant candidate, due to her continued heavy ETOH
abuse, continued illicit IV drug use, nonprescribed heavy
klonepin and percocet use, and previous consistent refusal of
medical treatment and recommendations (history of signing out
against medical advice from hospitals). This plan was discussed
with her mother, father, aunt, and family, who understood and
agreed.
.
MICU and hepatology team discussed intracranial pressure
monitoring using a bolt, and it was agreed that no bolt would be
placed, as patient was not a liver transplant candidate.
Neurologic exam was performed every hour. Her neurologic exam on
admission showed pupils constricting briskly 4 to 3 mm on the
right and 4 to 3 mm on the left, and she was drowsy but oriented
to person, place, year. She required a high dose of propofol to
maintain proper sedation. On [**3-28**], when sedation was turned down
to test mental status, she withdrew appropriately to painful
stimuli, and pupils were briskly reactive.
.
The patient had an episode of vomiting and for concern of airway
protection and aspiration, she was sedated, intubated, and LIJ
central line and arterial line was placed [**3-28**]. She was noted to
have diffuse ecchymoses over the eyelids, behind her ears, and
on bilateral abdomen, thought to be secondary to coagulopathy.
This elicited concern for a retroperitoneal bleed, but since
patient was not a candidate for surgical repair at the time, and
since the patient's clinical status was very tenuous and she was
not safe to leave the ICU, CT was not performed at this time.
.
On [**3-29**] AM, sedation was turned down to test mental status, and
she withdrew more slowly to painful stimuli, and pupils were
still equally reactive. Ecchymoses had expanded anteriorly over
abdomen, but abdomen was soft with bowel sounds and hematocrit
was maintained > 21 with pRBC transfusions. On [**3-29**] AM, with no
change in medications or sedation for the past hour, she was
noted to have sudden spike of BP >200/>110 and HR 150s. She was
given ativan 1 mg IV and labetalol 10 IV and her BP immediately
returned to 110/60 and HR 70s. Neurologic exam was performed and
vitals were measured every hour with no change.
.
On [**3-29**] early afternoon, neurologic exam suddenly showed right
pupil 5 mm nonreactive and left pupil slow to react 4 to 3 mm.
Sedation was turned off and patient no longer reacted to painful
stimuli. Mannitol and CT head, chest, abdomen, pelvis were
ordered. Within minutes, the patient's pupils became fixed and
dilated. CT head showed uncal, transtentorial, and tonsillar
herniation. Neurology reported brain death on [**3-29**]. Organ bank
assessed patient as candidate for heart donation only due to
hepatitis C. The patient was subsequently given further support
for cardiac care for organ donation from [**3-29**] to [**3-30**].
.
# Coagulopathy/bleeding:
Since admission, her hematocrit continued to decrease and her
INR continued to increase. She received a total of 4 pRBC, 12
FFP, and 1 cryoprecipitate transfusions over 3 days before
death. INR was initially 14.1 and was maintained with a goal INR
< 4.0; cryoprecipitate was given for fibrinogen < 100; RBC
transfusion was given for hematocrit < 21 or for an acute drop.
.
# Respiratory insufficiency:
The patient was hyperventilating with large tidal volumes. She
was intubated and on AC after an episode of vomiting, for airway
protection. CXR showed bilateral basilar infiltrates concerning
for early acute lung injury versus aspiration, and patient was
started on levofloxacin to cover for possible aspiration
pneumonia.
.
# ETOH/opiate withdrawal:
She was on propofol gtt which controlled withdrawal well. On [**3-29**]
AM, she had one episode of BP 200/110, HR 150s. She was given
ativan 1 mg IV and labetalol 10 IV with immediate resolution.
.
# Renal failure:
She received several boluses of NS IVF for prerenal azotemia and
Cr 2.5 on admission with no Cr baseline. Her renal function
worsened and renal was consulted on [**3-28**]. Urine output was
sufficient, and she did not require HD or CVVH. She was placed
on a phosphate binder. It was possible that her renal failure
occurred in conjunction with liver failure and/or was associated
with cocaine-induced vasoconstriction.
.
# Hematemesis:
Patient had small coffee ground gastric fluid and orogastric
tube was placed to low suction. She was placed on pantoprazole
IV BID.
.
# Leukocytosis:
WBC 23.1 on admission resolved to 6.3 after one day. Antibiotics
were started on [**3-28**] due to CXR infiltrates. Blood cultures on
[**3-27**] showed positive gram stain, and on [**3-31**] and [**4-2**] grew out
Corynebacterium species and Fusobacterium nucleatum, beta
lactamase negative. Surveillance blood cultures on [**3-28**] and [**3-29**]
showed no growth or were still pending (no growth yet) by [**4-3**].
Sputum cultures on [**3-28**] grew out Streptococcus pneumoniae and
MSSA on [**4-2**], both sensitive to levofloxacin. Urine culture
showed 1000 organisms of gram positive organism, likely
staphylococcus.
.
# Hypoglycemia:
Patient had one episode of fingerstick glucose 32, and was given
D50. D5W infusion was continued with subsequent normal
fingerstick glucose readings, which were checked every hour.
.
# Prophylaxis:
She was placed on pneumoboots with no subcutaneous heparin. She
was given PPI IV BID for hematemesis.
.
# Code:
Her code was full until her death on [**3-29**].

Service: NEUROSURGICAL
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a 76-year-old man
brought into [**Hospital3 **] Emergency Department after an
unwitnessed syncopal episode. The patient recalled going for
a walk in the afternoon and then no memory of events until he
was brought to the Emergency Room on [**2113-8-19**]. He was
reportedly found down by bystanders on the sidewalk
"confused". EMS was called and they found the patient alert
with stable vital signs, unremarkable exam and no complaints.
In the Emergency Department, exam was remarkable only for
systolic murmur which was old. Electrocardiograms were
unchanged from prior. A head CT with and without contrast,
however, revealed a large left frontal parietal mass presumed
to be metastases given his history of small cell lung cancer.
He was given then Dilantin 300 mg p.o. and Solu-Medrol 85 mg
intravenous. He initially presented with the right lower
lobe lung nodule in [**2112-7-26**] and a cough with weight
loss. In addition, he had postobstructive pneumonia. A
bronchoscopic biopsy revealed small cell lung cancer. Bone
scan and head CT in [**2112-8-26**] were negative. He was
billed as a limited stage and underwent four cycles of
carboplatin and etoposide between [**2112-9-25**] and [**2112-12-26**], resulting in resolution by radiologic studies at least
of his mass. Subsequent surveillance chest x-rays every
three months have all been negative. The last one was on
[**8-9**].

FAMILY HISTORY: Significant for diabetes.
EXAM ON ADMISSION:
VITAL SIGNS: Temperature 97.6??????, pulse 70, pressure 100/58,
respirations 17, 97% on room air.
GENERAL: He is a pleasant man in no acute distress.
HEAD, EARS, EYES, NOSE AND THROAT: Normocephalic,
atraumatic. Mucous membranes moist, anicteric. No evidence
of tongue laceration.
NECK: Supple, no lymphadenopathy, no carotid bruits.
CARDIOVASCULAR: Regular rate and rhythm, 2/6 systolic murmur
in the left upper sternal border.
CHEST: Clear bilaterally.
ABDOMEN: Soft, nontender, nondistended, positive bowel
sounds, no palpable hepatosplenomegaly. He was guaiac
negative.
EXTREMITIES: No cyanosis, clubbing or edema.
NEUROLOGIC: Alert and oriented to person, place, but not
time. He said it was [**2114-6-25**]. Motor [**3-30**] extensors, left
upper extremity wrist [**4-29**], otherwise. Light touch was
grossly intact. Cranial nerves II through XII grossly intact
with a left homonymous hemianopsia which is old. Finger to
nose, heel to shin slow but intact. No pronator drift. Deep
tendon reflexes were symmetric and toes were downgoing
bilaterally.
LABORATORIES AND IMAGING: White count 4.5, hematocrit 37,
platelet count 133. His chem-7 was significant for a
creatinine of 1.7. His baseline is between 1.2 and 1.6.
Electrocardiogram was not changed from prior and a head CT on
admission showed a 4.1 x 3.7 cm enhancing mass in the left
frontal lobe extending to the frontal [**Doctor Last Name 534**] of the left
ventricle with effacement of sulci on the right consistent
with metastatic disease, new since the [**12-26**] exam. In
addition, a chronic right occipital infarct which is
unchanged.
HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was admitted to the O-Med
service. He was ruled out by CKs, continued on aspirin and
beta blockers. In addition, he was started on intravenous
steroids and put on seizure precautions, as well as given
Dilantin. The patient, in addition, his p.o. intake was
encouraged and his creatinine returned to baseline. In
conjunction with his oncologist, neurosurgery was consulted
in addition radiation oncology was consulted, as well. The
patient underwent work up to determine extent of his
metastatic disease, including an MRI of his head which was
again consistent with metastatic disease as well as a CT of
his lung, abdomen and pelvis, which showed no metastatic
disease in the abdomen or pelvis. No liver lesions, adrenal
lesions, however his lung mass appeared to have increased in
size.
In conjunction with oncology, radiation oncology and
neurosurgery, it was decided that the patient would go for
resection of the brain metastasis. He was transferred to the
neurosurgical service on [**2113-8-24**] and underwent craniotomy on
[**2113-8-24**] with resection of the left frontal brain lesion.
Surgery proceeded without any complications. A surgical
drain was put in which was left there and the drain was
pulled [**2113-8-26**]. The patient continued to do well and
transferred from the Intensive Care Unit to the floor where
he remained stable neurologically. At that time, the patient
remained alert and awake, arousable, oriented to person with
good strength in all extremities, no pronator drift, looking
in all directions. On the floor, had some problems with
[**Name2 (NI) **] pressure control. His Toprol was changed to Lopressor
75 t.i.d., did well with that. He was seen by physical
therapy and the plan was to discharge this patient with
inpatient rehabilitation.

are unremarkable.
IMPRESSION: Normal chest.
CT head [**2199-9-3**]
Post-surgical changes from recent right frontoparietal
craniotomy with
right-sided drainage catheter in the surgical bed. The degree of
subfalcine herniation, sulcal effacement and local mass effect
appears slightly improved compared to most recent examination.
CXR [**2199-9-3**]
In comparison with the study of [**9-1**], there has been placement of
an
endotracheal tube with its tip approximately 5.5 cm above the
carina.
Nasogastric tube tip appears to extend only to the upper portion
of the
stomach with the side hole within the lower esophagus. Low lung
volumes may account for some of the prominence of the transverse
diameter of the heart.
CT head [**2199-9-4**]
Slight increase in size of previously noted acute subdural
hematoma, no change in midline shift.
CT Head [**9-5**]
No change when compared to previous scan on [**9-4**]
LENIs [**9-9**] - negative for DVT.
CT Head [**9-10**] (post op)
1. Decreased size of right subdural hematoma with decreased mass
effect.
2. New subarachnoid hemorrhage in the right sylvian fissure and
right frontal sulci.
CT Head [**9-12**]
Slight increase in right frontal wedge-shaped hypodensity with
mild increase in size likely related to evolution without a
significant increase in mass effect. Decrease in the previously
noted right sided subdural fluid collection with dense foci. No
new hemorrhage.
Carotid US [**2199-9-17**]
No evidence of significant carotid artery stenosis bilaterally.
Echocardiogram [**2199-9-18**]
The left atrium is normal in size. The right atrium is markedly
dilated. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy
with normal cavity size and regional/global systolic function
(LVEF>55%). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion
are normal. The ascending aorta is mildly dilated. The aortic
valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened. There is a minimally
increased peak transvalvular velocity consistent with minimal
aortic valve stenosis. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly
thickened. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. There is no
pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: No cardiac source of embolism identified. Preserved
global and regional biventricular systolic function. Minimal
aortic valve stenosis. Compared with the prior study dated
[**2193-6-5**] (images unavailable for review), minimal aortic valve
stenosis is appreciated.
Brief Hospital Course:
On [**9-1**] Mr. [**Known lastname 45777**] was admitted to the neuro ICU and started on
Keppra for seizure prophylaxsis. He remained stable
neurologically and radiologically and was cleared for transfer
to the floor on [**9-2**]. Surgery was scheduled for [**9-3**] for
craniotomy and evacuation of hematoma. Preop and consent were
obtained. He proceeded to the OR on [**2199-9-3**] for a right
craniotomy for subdural evacuation. A JP drain was left in
place. He remained intubated post-op and he went to CT for a
scan that showed some acute blood. He has left sided weakness.
He was transfered to the NICU. On [**2199-9-4**], he was extubated and
his strength was slowly improving. CT head showed a small amount
of acute blood and he was given platelets. In total he received
2 units of platelets and his platelet count remained above 100k.
A repeat CT head on [**9-5**] showed no change when compared to
previous scan. His subdural drain remained in place and was
removed in the late afternoon. He was transferred to a step-down
bed from the SICU that evening. The morning of [**9-6**] the patient
had a repeat Head CT demonstrating no change in right
frontoparietal hyperdensity and no new hemorrhage. The patient
mental status waxed and waned over the course of the day.
Patient failed speech and swallow and it was recommended to keep
the patient NPO. NG tube was placed in order to get medications
and nutrition.
On [**9-9**] LENIs was obtained to rule out DVT which was essentially
negative. A repeat Head CT showed slight increase in right
Frontoparietal collection. As a result, a Brain MRI Stroke
protocol was obtained as he had not improved neurologically
which demonstrated no brainstem hemorrhage. [**9-10**] MRI head
demonstrated the right frontoparietal subdural and subarachnoid
hemorrhage with mass effect and midline shift which are
unchanged as compared to the prior CT scan. He was taken to the
OR on [**9-10**] for a redo right craniotomy for SDH evacuation. A
post-op CT showed improvement with a decreased size of right
subdural hematoma with decreased mass effect and a new
subarachnoid hemorrhage in the right sylvian fissure and right
frontal sulci. The patient was taken to SICU-B after surgery
intubated. He remained intubated in the morning [**9-11**] with
reported seizure activity (right arm and right downward gaze
fixation) treated with increased keppra and continuous EEG. The
patient was also pan cultured for fever. A CT-scan was
re-ordered demonstrating a right frontal infarct. Dilantin was
added to seizure prophylaxis. Vancomycin, tobramycin, and
cefepime were added after Bronch cx returned positive for gram
positive rods and cocci and gram negative rods. Urine cultures
returned positive for Enterococcus. The patient remained
intubated with no change in neuro exam overnight. Patient
continued to have febrile temperatures overnight. The morning
of [**9-12**], the patient continued to have seizure episodes.
Neuroepilepsy was consulted for seizure work-up and
recommendations, endocrine service was consulted for work-up of
endocrine issues and recommendations, and a repeat head CT was
ordered. Patient was overnight without seizures and afebrile
throughout [**9-13**]. Urine cultures and bronchalveolar lavage
cultures returned with antibiotic sensitivities; antibiotics
were tailored as per sensitivity testing. The patient continued
to progress in his physical exam with increased movement in his
right upper and lower extremit, minimal movement of left upper
extremity and withdrawal to pain on left lower extremity,
following commands, and opening his eyes to voice. The plan was
to begin considering possible extubation.
On [**9-14**], the patient continued in the Surgical intensive care
unit. The ventilator was weaned and the patient was extubated.
The patient was weak, but opened his eyes to voice and was
oriented to person place and time. The patient was able to move
all four extremities antigravity to command. The patient moves
the left arm and leg after a delay. The left side is weakner
than the right. The patient had a bowel movement.
On [**9-16**] pt was doing well. He was AOx3 and was more interactive
with staff and family. He was transferred to the SDU in stable
condition. His abx were narrowed to Cefepime and the plan was to
continue for a total fo 14 days.
On [**9-17**] a carotid US was done per Neuro-Vascular service and
there was no significant stenosis. He was changed to floor
status.
On [**9-18**] his calcium was repleted. He was neurologically stable.
Cefepime was changed to Bactrim for oral therapy. IV meds were
discontinued. He was approved for PT.
Central line was discontinued. Patient taking oral intake
without issues. Overnight, the patient had no complaints.
Patient did take out dobbhoff tube despite restraints.
His echo was without source of embolus.
On [**9-19**] the patient was without complaints. His neurologic exam
was stable and strength in left upper and lower extremities
progressed. Patient's restraints were discontinued. Lasix were
given for signs of fluid overload in lower extremities. His
staple were removed in routine fashion. Now DOD, he is
afebrile, VSS, and he himproved neurologically. He is
tolerating an oral diet without issues. He was evaluated by
pt/ot/speech who recommended rehab. On [**2199-9-19**], He was stable
for discharge to rehab and will f/u accordingly.

REASON FOR THIS EXAMINATION:
eval ptx
STUDY: Single portable AP chest radiograph.
INDICATION: Status post mitral valve replacement, please
evaluate for pneumothorax
COMPARISON: [**2124-7-5**].
FINDINGS: Study is limited by tubing from breathing mask
overlying the right apex which is the region of interest. Subtle
lucency remains in this area, however, exact extent of right
apical pneumothorax is indeterminate. There is no shift in the
mediastinum to suggest a tension component. The lungs are
otherwise clear. There is a small left pleural effusion. Median
sternotomy wires remain intact.
IMPRESSION: Limited radiograph given overlying tubing in the
right apex. However, there is likely unchanged to slight
improvement of right apical pneumothorax and repeat radiograph
is recommended after overlying tubing has been removed.
The study and the report were reviewed by the staff radiologist.

ascending aorta is moderately dilated. There are simple atheroma
in the aortic arch. There are simple atheroma in the descending
thoracic aorta.
5. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic
stenosis is not present. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen.
6. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is mild
mitral valve prolapse of the anterior and posterior leaflets. An
posteriorly eccentric, directed jet of Moderate to severe (3+)
mitral regurgitation and a centrally directed jet is seen . The
mitral valve annulus is dilated measurng 4.5 cm in the
transcommisural view and 5.4cm in the anterior-posterior view.
7. There is a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion.
Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) **] was notified in person of the results.
POST-BYPASS: For the post-bypass study, the patient was
receiving vasoactive infusions including epinephrine and
phenylephrine and was in a sinus rhythm.
1. There is a mitral valve ring in place, gradient across the
mitral valve is1mmHg with a CO of 3.5L/min. The PHT 47ms, with a
MVA of 2.4cm2.
2. There is global left ventricular systolic dysfunction with an
estimated LVEF of 35 %.
3. Right ventricular systolic function is abnormal; the RV
appears moderatly dilated and moderately hypokinetic
post-bypass.

This is an interim summary covering from [**2148-8-4**] through [**8-11**].
[**Hospital **] transferred to Neonatology Service because of the
development of medical necrotizing enterocolitis.
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: Baby baby [**Name (NI) 4549**] is a [**2049**] gram
product of a 31 and 6/7 weeks twin gestation born to a 28-
year-old G3, P0, now 2 woman.
Prenatal screens - A positive, antibody negative, hepatitis
surface antigen negative, rubella immune, RPR nonreactive,
GBS unknown. This pregnancy is remarkable for in [**Last Name (un) 5153**]
fertilization, dichorionic, diamniotic twin complicated by
preterm labor cervical shortening at 24 weeks. The mother was
treated with bed rest and magnesium sulfate. Betamethasone
given on [**2148-6-10**]. She remained on bed rest that [**Doctor First Name **]-

presentation, prompting cesarean section delivery. Per
parents' wished, did not want to try a labor. The infant
emerged initially with good tone and cry, however then
developed apnea, large amount of oropharyngeal secretions
that were suctioned. The baby required bag, mask ventilation
and further suctioning of orogastric fluid. Apgars were 5, 7,
and 8.

Chief Complaint:
Abdominal pain
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
This is a 48-year-old female with PMHx of spina bifida, HTN, MR,
paraperesis, non-epileptic [**First Name3 (LF) 54422**], and urostomy with chief
complaint of abdominal pain. This occured 2 days prior to
arrival, pain was diffuse (9.5/10), gradually increasing in
severity. Associated with: nausea and vomiting (food contents,
non-bloody); patient denies f/c, new n/t/w, HA/neck pain, change
in vision, CP, SOB, cough, change in BM (1 on day prior,
non-bloody), GU s/sx. Review of OMR reveals that the patient
has been admitted several times for abdominal pain that
presented similarly and had a negative work up including CT
abdomen, RUQ U/S and HIDA scan. On her [**Month (only) 116**] admission she was
treated with an aggressive bowel regimen and discharged after
having daily stools. Also, the patient was recently admitted for
spastic movements that were determined not to be [**Month (only) 54422**]. She
then went to the ED again last week with spastic movements in
renal ultrasound that neurology felt were consitent with her
non-epileptic [**Month (only) 54422**]. In the neurology consult note from this
ED visit her abdomen was noted to be diffusely tender and
somewhat distended.
.
In the ED VS: 96.5 72 111/68 18 99% 2L. Exam was notable for
distended abdomen that was mildly distended diffusely tender to
palpation. She was guaiac negative. Labs notable for alk phos of
113 and U/A negative (bacteruira from ileal condiut). Patient
had Abd Xray and CT scan which were unremarkable (stool present,
no SBO, no abscess, no pancreatitis or other acute process). CXR
showed no abnormality. Patient given morphine x2 and Zofran and
admitted for pain control.
.
On the floor, patient was sleeping but when awoken states that
her abdomen is painful and distended.
(Of note, the above HPI is from the patient's presentation to
the ED). She has since been admitted to the medical ICU for her
diffuse fixed drug reaction/dermatologic condition).

Brief Hospital Course:
This is a 48-year-old female with spina bifida and long standing
urostomy, mild mental retardation, and prior bullos skin lesions
admitted [**2178-1-20**] for abdominal pain, suspected related to
constipation; overnight with fever to 103 and development of
bullous skin lesions, concerning for drug reaction. Patient is
being transferred to [**Hospital1 112**] for further burn care.
.
BULLOUS HYPERSENSITIVITY DRUG REACTION: New onset diffuse
erythema and bullae in areas of friction noticed on hospital day
2, following fever to 103 evening prior. Progressive throughout
the day, with increasing blistering, particular in axilla, neck
folds, back, thighs, and shins. Dermatology was actively
involved in patient's care. Zofran suspected to be causative
[**Doctor Last Name 360**], with morphine and divalproex less likely. (Patient has
had at least 4 previous bouts of drug reactions, and has
required intubation for laryngeal and angioedema). Recommended
transfer to [**Hospital6 **] Burn Unit for close monitoring
due to rapid progression of bullae. Zofran was stopped. Skin
biopsy performed by dermatology with path pending. Patient was
given over 2 Liters of IV hydration in the ICU; hydration was
stopped when IV access was lost. Pain control was with IV
morphine, but then switched to PO after IV access was lost.
Patient received 1 dose of IVIG (1g/kg/d); she was in the middle
of her second dose before she lost IV access. She should get a
total of 4 doses of IVIG over 4 days. She was given
methyprednisolone 40mg IV once.
.
2) ACCESS: Patient lost access on the morning of [**1-23**].
Peripherals and PICC were unable to be placed due to patient's
extensive blistering. A right IJ was eventually placed for
access.
.
3) RESPIRATORY STATUS: On the morning of [**1-13**], patient had
increasing stridor and increased work of breathing in addition
to angioedema. She has required intubation in the past for
respiratory decline in the setting of bullous hypersensitivity
reaction. She was intubated prophylactically prior to transfer
to [**Hospital1 112**]. Induction was with etomidate and succ, and
sedation/pain control was maintained with midazolam and a
morphine drip (to avoid further drug exposures). She remains on
neo 0.9, but this can probably be weaned prior to transfer or
right afterward. Initial abg showed 7.28/52/93 on Fi02 100%, TV
500, RR 16, PEEP 5. Subsequently, RR was increased to 18 and
PEEP was increased to 10. Repeat gas is 7.35/43/94.
.
3) KLEBSIELLA UTI: Noted on hospital day 2. Recurrent UTIs in
this patient with urostomy due to spina bifida. Patient was
seen by her primary care physician who thought that because
recent u/a was negative, patient was probably colonized with
klebsiella and antibiotics were not warranted at this time. If
antibiotics are needed, patient can be started on meropenem.
.
(4) ASTHMA/COPD: Continued on montelukast per home regimen.
.
(5) NON-EPILEPTIC SEIZURE DISORDER: No concerning seizure
activity during this hospital stay. Continued on divalproex
250mg PO BID per home regimen.
.
(6) DEPRESSION: Continued on citalopram 20mg PO daily and
quetiapine 25mg PO QHS per home regimen.
.

Neuro: Pt has history of one prior seiure 3 yrs ago, known area
of encephalomalacia and possibly arachnoid cyst L superior
frontal involving the cortex, HTN. Seizure at OSH was
prolonged GTC but duration not clear (through ativan 12mg
andfosphenytoin 1g) then persistent rythmic chewing on arrival
to our ED. He remained on EEG for > 48hrs with no seizure
activity. Etiology or seizures unclear ([**Name2 (NI) **] withdrawl vs
other). Pt was placed on Keppra 1g/day and extra 500mg after
each HD. Neurology recommends MRI of head when feasible given
the presentation with
prolonged seizure and follow up.
-
CV: The patient remained stable from a cardiovascular
standpoint; vital signs were routinely monitored.
Pulmonary:
GI/GU/FEN: initialy patient was made NPO with IV fluids. Pt
abdmon was closed on [**7-1**]. Diet was advanced when appropriate,
which was well tolerated. Patient's intake and output were
closely monitored, and IV fluid was adjusted when necessary.
Electrolytes were routinely followed, and repleted when
necessary. pt had signigicant diarrhea thought to be secondary
to pancreatitis, c- diff negative.
ID: The patient's white blood count and fever curves were
closely watched for signs of infection. Pt was treated with
antibiotics Vanc and Zosyn which were d/c on [**6-27**]. no clear
organism was identified as source of infection. Pt WBC trended
down off of antibiotcs and pt was afebrile at discharge.
Skin: pt had significant erythema especially on the buttox
bilaterally. Intially thought to be secondary to diarrhea.
creams were applied, rectal tube was placed for dirrhea.
Hematology: The patient's complete blood count was examined
routinely; no transfusions were required.
Prophylaxis: The patient received subcutaneous heparin and
venodyne boots were used during this stay; was encouraged to get
up and ambulate as early as possible.
At the time of discharge, the patient was doing well, afebrile
with stable vital signs. The patient was tolerating a regular
diet, working with physical therapy, voiding, and pain was well
controlled. The patient received discharge teaching and
follow-up instructions with understanding verbalized and
agreement with the discharge plan.

coronary artery calcifications, otherwise, the heart and great
vessels appear unremarkable. There is scattered
non-pathologically enlarged mediastinal lymph adenopathy with no
appreciably enlarged nodes noted within the axilla or hila.
Evaluation of the lung parenchyma displays diffuse increased
interstitial markings extending to the periphery (Kerley B
lines) with scattered areas of ground-glass opacity. These
findings are most consistent with interstitial edema and
congestive heart failure (CHF). Additionally, there is a more
focal area of consolidation noted along the major fissure within
the right middle lobe (3:64). This may also be related to
underlying CHF but focal infiltrative process cannot be
excluded. There is bilateral dependent atelectasis. The airways
are patent to the subsegmental level.
Limited examination through the upper abdomen displays fatty
infiltration of the liver but is otherwise unremarkable.
BONE WINDOWS: No suspicious blastic or lytic lesions are
identified.
IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of acute pulmonary embolism or aortic dissection.
2. Diffuse increased intersitial markings with scattered
ground-glass opacities are most consistent with findings of
interstitial edema and CHF. Additionally, a more focal area of
consolidation is noted within the right middle lobe which may
represent a superimposed infectious process. No large pleural
effusions are identified.
3. Fatty infiltration of the liver.

TTE:
Conclusions:
The left atrium is normal in size. Left ventricular wall
thicknesses are
normal. The left ventricular cavity size is normal. Overall left
ventricular systolic function is severely depressed (ejection
fraction 30 percent) secondary to severe hypokinesis of the
anterior septum and anterior free wall, with extensive apical
akinesis and focal apical dyskinesis (no definite apical
thrombus seen). There is no ventricular septal defect. Right
ventricular chamber size is normal. There is focal hypokinesis
of the apical free wall of the right ventricle. The aortic
valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet
excursion and no aortic regurgitation. The mitral valve
leaflets are structurally normal. There is no mitral valve
prolapse. Moderate
(2+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The pulmonary artery systolic
pressure could not be determined. There is no pericardial
effusion.
Compared with the findings of the prior study (images reviewed)
of [**2110-8-25**], intercurrent extensive anterior myocardial
infarction is evident.
.....
Cardiac catherization:
COMMENTS:
1. Selective coronary angiography of this right dominant system
revealed
single vessel disease. There was a cloacal LMCA which was free
of
critical stenoses. The LAD was totally occluded just distal to
S1 and
filled distally via left-to-left and right-to-left collaterals.
The LCx
was diffusely diseased throughout with an aneurysmal segment in
the
mid-vessel and 30-40% stenoses in the OM1 and OM2 branches. The
RCA was
also diffusely diseased with an aneurysmal mid-segment and
plaquing up
to 40%.
2. Limited resting hemodynamics revealed severely elevated left
heart
filling pressures with an LVEDP of 30mmHg. The opening aortic
pressure
was 119/75mmHg.
3. Left ventriculography was deferred.
FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
1. One vessel coronary artery disease.
2. Severe diastolic left ventricular dysfunction.
....
Myocardial viability test:
INTERPRETATION:
Following injection of of Thallium Chloride while the patient
was at rest,
static SPECT images were obtained and analyzed 20 minutes
post-injection. The patient returned 24 hours later and SPECT
images were again obtained.
The left ventricular cavity size is enlarged.
20 minute images reveal defects in the distal anterior wall,
apex, and septum. 24 hour images reveal improved uptake in the
septum. Defects in the distal anterior wall and apex appear
unchanged.
IMPRESSION: Multiple defects in the distal anterior wall, apex,
and septum with evidence of viable myocardium in the septum.
Brief Hospital Course:
ASSESSMENT AND PLAN, AS REVIEWED AND DISCUSSED IN
MULTIDISCIPLINARY ROUNDS
49 yo man with history of DM, Hep C, htn and
hypercholesterolemia admitted with chest pain and large anterior
STEMI.
.
1)STEMI: Patient presented with symptoms and clinical syndrome
consistent for a completing STEMI. Description of symptoms
starting approx 4 days prior to presentation and lack of CK
elevation supported that the myocardial damage was done several
days prior to admission. Echocardiogram showed severely
decreased anterior wall motion. Cardiac catherization done at
the end of the hospitalization showed occluded LAD with some
collateral flow but no intervention was performed (given concern
for both viability of the myocardium, compliance with plavix and
fear of steal flow to a potentially non-viable area from a
viable one).
Given that he had severe decreased anterior motion he will need
chronic anticoagulation given high risk for apical thrombus. He
is likely a candidate for an ICD placement but this will need to
be discussed as an outpatient.
For futher evaluation of the myocardium, a nuclear viability
test was done that shows an area of viability in the septum.
Patient was discharged prior to these results.
For secondary prevention and treatment of MI, he was
started/continued on aspirin lisinopril, metoprolol, and lipitor
80mg
He was discharged with instructions to follow up with the
[**Hospital3 **] for management of his INR.
.
2) Pleuritic chest pain/pericarditis: Throughout the
hospitalization the patient had pleuric chest pain. This was
thought to be most likely caused by pericarditis after the
myocardial infarction. He was treated with pain medications but
NSAIDS were avoided. PE was ruled out with a CTA.
.
3) Hypertension: Blood pressure control was managed with
titration of the lisinopril and metoprolol with the decrease of
lisinopril to 5 mg to keep the BP in the low-normal range.
.
4) Rhythm: Remained in normal sinus, continued metoprolol
5) Pump: With systolic and diastolic dysfunction. Initially
presented with what appeared to be fluid overload as a result of
his MI. Patient diuresed a large amount without diuretics. Will
need outpatinet echo and possible ICD placement in approx 3
weeks (40 days post MI)
.
6) Hemoptysis: Initially presented in the setting of pleuritic
chest pain and thus was concerning for PE. However this was
ruled out. It seemed to be decreasing as he got further
treatment for his community acquired pneumonia, but had not
completely resolved. Thought likely secondary to
tracheobronchitis. CTA did not show any concerning lesions.
.
7) Fever- febrile at home cause was likely with
bronchitis/pneumonia. [**Month (only) 116**] have also been in the setting of
either infarction or pericarditis.
Treated with 7 days of levofloxacin. Afebrile while inpatient.
.
8) Hepatitis C: appears to have poor follow up but does have
documented high viral load with poor serotype. Viral load was
792,000 IU/mL. LFTs at baseline. Decreased liver span and
possible cirrhosis given elevated INR at baseline. Will need
outpatient follow up.
.
9) Hypertension: initially hypotensive, stopped clonidine,
transitioned to toprol XL.
.
10) DM: Currently well controlled. HBA1c 5.4. Will give home
dose of lantus unless NPO (then will give 1/2 dose) and follow
with sliding scale QID
.
11) History of osteomyelitis: not active issue, will treat pain.

Admission Date: [**2119-4-2**] Discharge Date:[**2119-5-19**]
Date of Birth: [**2119-4-2**] Sex: M
Service: NB
HISTORY: Baby [**Name (NI) **] [**Known lastname 46082**] number 1 is a former 1585 gram
product of a 29 week twin gestation pregnancy, born to a 40
year old G2 P1-3 woman whose pregnancy was apparently
uncomplicated until she was admitted to [**Hospital1 190**] on [**3-30**] with vaginal bleeding and preterm
labor. Spontaneous rupture of membranes occurred on day of
delivery. On the day prior to delivery, on the morning of
delivery, labor progressed, and breech presentation of one
twin prompted delivery via cesarean section.
PRENATAL SCREENS: A positive, antibody negative, hepatitis B
surface antigen negative, RPR nonreactive, GBS status
unknown. No risks factors for sepsis noted at time of
delivery.
At delivery, the infant emerged vigorous and was noted to
have mild to moderate respiratory distress. He was given blow-
by O2, stim and CPAP. Apgars were 7 at 1 minute, 8 at 5
minutes. Baby was transferred to the newborn intensive care
unit after visiting briefly with parents in the delivery
room.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION ON ADMISSION: Pink, active, non
dysmorphic infant, well saturated and perfused. Increasing
work of breathing was noted during the early part of the NICU
course. Skin was notable for scattered petechiae about the
upper trunk and neck. Bruising was noted about the flank and
buttocks. 5 mm superficial laceration on left buttock was
noted. HEENT was within normal limits. Normal regular rate
and rhythm. S1 and S2. No murmur. Lungs crackly, with shallow
bilateral breath sounds. Abdomen benign. No
hepatosplenomegaly. Normal premature genitalia, male. Both
testes in canal. Hips normal. Back with blind ending sacral
dimple. Neurologic nonfocal and age appropriate.
HOSPITAL COURSE BY SYSTEM:
1. RESPIRATORY. Infant required intubation and received 2
doses of surfactant. Was on the conventional ventilator
until day of life 3. At that time, he was loaded with
caffeine citrate, with transition to CPAP 5 cm, less than
30 percent O2. Remained on CPAP until day of life 27, when
he required re-intubation for increased apnea and
bradycardia. At that time, he was noted to have a positive
blood culture. See "infectious disease," below. He
remained on the ventilator until day of life 33, when he
again transitioned to CPAP. He remained on prong CPAP
until day of life 37, when he transitioned to nasal
cannula O2. He currently is on nasal cannula O2 100
percent, 25-75 cc. Baseline breath sounds of 40-60, clear
and equal. Caffeine was discontinued on day of life 15 due
to episodes of supraventricular tachycardia (see
"cardiovascular," below). The baby has an occasional
episode of desaturations at this point in time. The baby
did not require any pressor support during this admission.
2. CARDIOVASCULAR. The baby was noted to have a large PDA on
day of life 2 on echocardiogram. He received his first
course of indomethacin. On day of life 15, was noted to
have episodes of supraventricular tachycardia. He had no
cardiovascular instability during this episode. He
received 2 doses of adenosine to break the
supraventricular tachycardia. On day of life 18, he had
recurrence of the SVT. At this point in time, the caffeine
had been discontinued for several days. This lasted [**1-1**]
minutes. It broke without intervention. Cardiology
consultation was obtained to rule out congenital heart
disease and to assist with ectopy management. Ultimate
disease was probable premature atrial contractions with a
wandering atrial pacer. He is having some junctional
beats. Plan is to discuss with Cardiology followup plan at
time of discharge, with probable return to see Cardiology
after discharge to Holter monitor, to determine whether
ectopy continues after discharge. At the time of this
dictation, the baby has had an irregular heartbeat
intermittently. Has had no further supraventricular
tachycardia. The baby again showed symptoms of a patent
ductus arteriosus. Had an echocardiogram on [**4-28**], day
of life 26. The echo showed a moderate PDA with left to
right flow. On [**5-3**], he received a second course of
indomethacin. On [**5-4**], an echo showed no PDA. The baby
current has a baseline heart rate of 130-160's. He has no
murmur, with baseline blood pressures in the 60-70's
systolic, diastolic 30-40's, means in 40-50's.
3. FLUID AND ELECTROLYTES. Birth weight 1590 grams, 90th
percentile. Current weight 2625, 50th, greater than 50th
percentile. Admission length 40 cm, greater than 50th
percentile. Current length 44 cm, greater than 25th
percentile. Admission head circumference 28.5 cm, 75th
percentile. Current head circumference 32 cm, 50th
percentile. The baby initially was NPO and had a double
lumen UVC line inserted. Received parenteral nutrition and
enteral lipids until his respiratory status stabilized. On
day of life 5, enteral feedings were introduced. He
achieved full enteral feedings by day of life 12. He is
currently feeding 130 cc/kg/day of breast milk 26. This
was achieved by adding 4 calories/oz of HMF and 2 cal/oz
of MCT. He is also receiving supplemental FeSO4 25 mg/ml,
0.2 ml daily, which equals 2 mg/kg/day. He is voiding and
stooling and requiring some gavage feedings. Last
electrolytes on [**5-6**] showed sodium 140, potassium 4.9,
chloride 105, CO2 22. AST at that time was 20, ALT 9,
alkaline phosphatase 301. He is due for nutrition labs
again on [**5-23**]. BUN and creatinine on [**5-2**] were BUN 13,
creatinine 0.6.
4. GASTROINTESTINAL. Baby had a peak bilirubin on day of life
3 of 7.2/0.4/6.8. Responded to double phototherapy. Had a
rebound bilirubin on day of life 8 of 5/0.3/4.7.
5. HEMATOLOGY. His blood type is A positive. He received 2
transfusions so far during this admission, the last one on
[**5-4**]. Last hematocrit on [**5-13**] was 37.2.
6. INFECTIOUS DISEASE. Upon admission, the blood culture and
CBC were sent and he was started on 48 hours of ampicillin
and gentamicin. At 48 hours, the baby was clinically well
and the antibiotics were discontinued. On day of life 20,
he had another CBC and blood culture sent because of
increase in apnea and bradycardia. This was within normal
limits, with a white count of 13.6, 31 polys, 6 bands, 37
lymphocytes and platelet count of 563, hematocrit of 30.
He was placed back on positive airway pressure, which
resolved his increase in apnea and bradycardia. He did
have a urine sent for CMV because of his sibling's
diagnosis of having urine positive for CMV. This baby's
urine has remained negative. On day of life 26, the baby
again had increase in apnea and bradycardia while on CPAP.
He had a blood culture and a CBC sent. His white count was
14.8, with 75 polys, 5 bands, platelets 484, hematocrit
29. Blood culture grew out Staph aureus. He had been
started on vancomycin and gentamicin. Culture was sent.
Lumbar puncture ultimately was done. This showed 1 red
cell, 2 white cells, protein 87, glucose 50. Cultures
remained negative. He was transitioned to oxacillin and
received 14 days of treatment for Staph aureus from his
negative culture. Oxacillin was discontinued on [**5-17**].
During his treatment with oxacillin, he had serial liver
function tests and CBC's drawn, as stated above.
7. NEUROLOGY. [**Known firstname **] has had serial head ultrasounds, all
within normal limits, the last one being on [**5-3**] at 33-
3/7 weeks gestation. It was neurologically appropriate for
gestational age.
8. SENSORY. Audiology screening has not been done at the time
of dictation. Ophthalmology - Eye exam on [**5-1**] showed
immature retina, zone 2, with plan to follow up in 2
weeks.
9. INTEGUMENTARY. He has been noted to have a strawberry
hemangioma on his scrotum.
10. PSYCHOSOCIAL. Parents have been visiting frequently,
and look forward to transitioning home with [**Known firstname **] and his
brother [**Name (NI) **] to join his sister, [**Name (NI) 3608**].
CONDITION AT TIME OF TRANSFER: Stable. Transfer to [**Hospital1 35174**] service. Primary pediatrician is Dr. [**First Name4 (NamePattern1) 449**] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) **],
[**Location (un) 2274**].

Reason: r/o pulm edema, effusions.
[**Hospital 93**] MEDICAL CONDITION:
59yo F with malignant pleural effusions from metastatic breast
cancer. now extubated.
REASON FOR THIS EXAMINATION:
r/o pulm edema, effusions.
REASON FOR EXAMINATION: Evaluation of pulmonary edema in patient
with bilateral minor pleural effusion due to lung cancer.
Portable AP chest radiograph compared to [**2138-7-29**].
The patient was extubated in the meantime interval. The right
internal jugular line tip is 1 cm below the cavoatrial junction.
The heart size and the mediastinal contours are unchanged. There
is worsening of bilateral pulmonary edema as well as of left
lower lobe consolidation. The bilateral pleural effusion is
grossly unchanged. There is no evidence of pneumothorax with the
technical limitation of this film. The tip of the right chest
tube is unchanged.
IMPRESSION:
1. Meanwhile extubation of the patient.
2. Worsening of the bilateral pulmonary edema.
Brief Hospital Course:
59F h/o metastatic BRCA mets to bone on CTX, recurrent
pericardial effusion s/p pericardial windows [**6-24**], [**6-30**] @ OSH,
persistent R pleural effusion with CT output 3L/day tx'd from [**Hospital3 44597**]. Pt received 25mg IV adriamycin on [**7-25**] prior to transfer.

Chief Complaint:
Pleuritic chest pain
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
Heimlich valve at [**Hospital3 3765**] for PTX
History of Present Illness:
85M with a PMh s/f severe COPD on chronic O2, complete heart
block s/p PMP [**7-21**], PVD s/p bilateral carotid endarterectomies
in [**2111**], HTN, HLD presents to presented to [**Hospital3 7569**]
w/chief complaint of chest pain and shortness of breath since
the AM. He had a recent hospitalization for MI and PNA, and had
completed a 2 week course of PNA on Sunday. At home, he denied
any F, C, N/V, but endorsed pleureitic L sided chest pain and
shortness of breath.
.
He initally was taken to [**Hospital3 **], and was given nitro
gtt, briefly was on a heparin gtt, and was given Levofloxacin
for a worsening LLL PNA. The plan was then to transfer to [**Hospital1 **]
since this is where he receives his cardiology care, for sats
70's-80's on facemask prior to switching to nrb, then improved
to low 90s for a cards evalulation. While he was in the
ambulance, radiology at [**Location (un) **] stat notified our ED of a
finding of a 30% left PTX. The ambulance was thus directed to
the nearest hospital, which turned out to be [**Hospital1 **]. At
[**Hospital1 **], his left PTX was relieved with a Heimlich valve device,
which on our repeat CXR shows resolution. The patient then
reported improved SOB, but still some mild L CP with
inspiration.
.
In the ED, initial VS were: 99.0 110 170/91 20 98% cont neb
.
Labs were notable for HCT 36.2, INR 1.4.
.
He was given Aspirin 325mg, and 4 mg Morphine Sulfate.
.
CXR was notable for interval resolution of the PTX.
.
On arrival to the MICU, he is AAOx3, surrounded by his family,
and comfortable. His family says that he had a slightly worse
cough,a lthough he has a chronic cough at baseline, although he
denies his cough is any worse.

CXR [**2-26**]:
IMPRESSION: Bibasilar opacities, left greater than right, raises
concern for an infection/pneumonia and/or aspiration. Blunting
of the left costophrenic angle may be due to a small pleural
effusion. Bibasilar atelectasis.
A tubular structure/catheter extending into the left lung apex
with possible tiny left apical pneumothorax remaining. However,
suggest followup with removal of external artifact for better
evaluation. Upright PA and lateral views may be helpful for
further evaluation when/if patient able.
CHEST (PORTABLE AP) Study Date of [**2120-2-28**]
The left pigtail is in place. The left lower lobe consolidation
has
substantially improved. Heart size and mediastinum are overall
unchanged.
The assessment of the lung bases still demonstrate bilateral
pleural effusion, small on the right and most likely small to
moderate on the left.
Brief Hospital Course:
85M with a PMh s/f severe COPD on chronic O2, complete heart
block s/p PMP [**7-21**], PVD s/p bilateral carotid endarterectomies
in [**2111**], HTN, HLD presents with pleuritic pain and found to have
a L PTX.
# PTX/Chest Pain: Has remained hemodynamically stable since
arrival to the hosptial. Has a Heimlich valve device in place,
and is oxygenating well, without new development of PTX. Most
likely the pt developed a PTX from the bursting of a bleb as a
complication of severe COPD. The pt was ruled out for an MI with
CE. He was weaned down to 2L of O2 NC which is his home O2
requirement. Interventional pulmonology removed the Heimlich
valve without complication.
.
# LLL infiltrate: CXR this hospitalization shows a LLL opacity.
The pt just completed a two week course of antibiotics
prescribed by his PCP for treatment of pneumonia. The pt was
afebrile, without a leukocytosis and cough. There was no
evidence of infection currently and most likely this
radiographic reminence from resolving prior pneumonia. No
further antibiotics were given during this hospitalization.
.
# Acute Urinary Retention: The pt has known BPH and is on
Terazosin at home. He claims that for prior hospitalizations he
has required urinary catheterization for obstruction as well. He
was having difficulty voiding during this hospitalization. A
bladder scan revealed >1L of urine in his bladder. A foley
catheter was placed to relieve this obstruction. It was then
removed and a repeat voiding trial was obtained which showed him
to be retaining 600cc of urine in his bladder. A foley catheter
was re-inserted and a follow up appointment was made with
Urology for removal. We increased his dose of Terazosin from 2mg
to 5mg daily prior to discharge.
.
# Severe COPD on chronic oxygen treatment: Patient was quickly
weaned back down to home O2 requirements (2-3L 02 NC), without
any extra wheezing on exam. We continued his home Advair,
Tiotroprium and nebulizers prn.
.
# Elevated INR: Chronic problem noted in this pt seen on labs
from [**2111**] where is INR was also noted to be 1.4. Pt is not on
warfarin currently. His albumin was wnl and there was no active
signs of bleeding.
.
# Hyperlipidemia/PVD: We continued
aspirin 81 mg Daily
Plavix 75 mg Daily
Zocor 10 mg Daily
Lisinopril 10 mg Daily
.
# Chronic Lower Extremity Edema- we continued
Lasix 20 mg QAM
Lasix 10 mg QPM
.
# Restless Leg Syndrome: continued
Mirapex 0.5 mg QHS
.
# Transitional- Prior to discharge a urinary catheter was placed
to relieve his urinary obstruction from BPH. He has a follow up
appointment with urology to have this removed. He also has a
follow up appointment with his PCP as well.

[**5-18**] CT head
FINDINGS: There is no intracranial edema, mass effect, or
vascular
territorial infarction. An ovoid hyperdensity overlies the
cribriform plates
and measures 14 x 14mm (2:9), possibly representing a
meningioma. Ventricles
and sulci are normal in size and in configuration. Extracranial
soft tissue
structures are unremarkable. Mild mucosal soft tissue thickening
is noted at
the right maxillary sinus. Fluid in the posterior nasopharynx
extends into the
ethmoid air cells bilaterally. Otherwise, the paranasal sinuses
and mastoid
air cells are clear. There is no fracture.
IMPRESSION:
1) Extra-axial ovoid hyperdensity overlying the cribriform
plates, without mass effect, possibly representing a meningioma.
Further characterization with MR [**First Name (Titles) 151**] [**Last Name (Titles) **] is recommended.

.
[**5-19**] Liver U/S
FINDINGS: Examination is somewhat limited due to difficulty with
patient
positioning as well as overlying bowel gas. Allowing for this
limitation, liver is diffusely echogenic without focal lesion.
There is no intra- or extra-hepatic biliary dilatation. Common
bile duct measures 6 mm in caliber. There are no gallstones.
Pancreas is not well visualized. There is no ascites. Spleen is
not enlarged measuring 8.2 cm in length.
The main portal vein is patent and demonstrates antegrade flow.
Velocity
within the main portal vein measures 17.4 cm/sec. Flow within
the right
portal vein is noted and is antegrade. Flow within the left
portal vein is reversed, compatible with portal hypertension.
SMV and splenic vein are patent.
IVC, right hepatic vein, left hepatic vein, and middle hepatic
vein are all patent and unremarkable.
IMPRESSION:
1. Diffusely echogenic liver, commonly seen with fatty
infiltration. Other, more advanced forms of liver disease such
as cirrhosis or fibrosis can have a similar appearance and
cannot be completely excluded by ultrasound.
2. Flow reversal within the left portal vein, compatible with
portal
hypertension. Flow within the main portal vein is antegrade.
There is no
splenomegaly or ascites.
[**5-19**] CXR
FINDINGS: In comparison with the study of [**5-18**], the endotracheal
tube remains about 4.5 cm above the carina. Nasogastric tube is
coiled in the stomach with the tip projected close to the
cardioesophageal junction. The lungs are essentially clear and
there is no evidence of vascular congestion or pleural effusion.
.
[**5-20**] EEG
IMPRESSION: This is a normal routine EEG in the waking and
sleeping
states. The generalized low voltage fast beta rhythms may be
seen with
medication side effects (e.g. benzodiazepines and barbiturates)
or may
be seen with anxiety. No focal slowing, epileptiform discharges
or
electrographic seizures were recorded.
.
EGD - [**5-19**] Normal mucosa in the esophagus. Erythema, congestion,
petechiae and mosaic appearance in the whole stomach compatible
with portal hypertensive gastropathy (endoclip). Normal mucosa
in the duodenum. Otherwise normal EGD to third part of the
duodenum
Recommendations: Avoid all NSAIDS and [**Doctor Last Name **]-2 inhibitors. Take
tylenol for pain (max of 2 grams per day). D/C octreotide.
Continue PPI IV BID.
.
MRI:
FINDINGS: There is no evidence of hemorrhage, edema, midline
shift, or
infarction. The ventricles and sulci are prominent for age
suggesting
atrophy. There is right maxillary sinus mucosal thickening. No
diffusion
abnormalities are seen. Overlying the cribriform plate is a T1
bright 12 x 16-mm oval structure (series 3, image 10) which
loses signal on fat
suppression. The intracranial and vertebral and internal carotid
arteries and their major branches appear normal without evidence
of stenosis, occlusion, or aneurysm formation.
IMPRESSION:
1. No infarct or acute intracranial hemorrhage.
2. Incidental note made of a lipoma adjacent to the cribriform
plate.
3. Atrophy.
Brief Hospital Course:
ASSESSMENT AND PLAN: 46 year old man with history of traumatic
brain injury and alcohol abuse now with new onset tonic clonic
seizures, though to be due to alcohol withdrawal.
#. Seizure: Felt most likely to be related to EtOH withdrawal.
He also has a history of heavy alcohol use, and alcohol level on
admission consistent with withdrawal. Given his head injury and
focal slowing on EEG, felt to have a significant risk of seizure
recurrence. Got meningitic doses of antibiotics in ED, had
negative LP for meningitis. Neurology followed, recommended
Keppra for seizure prophylaxis. Treated with valium CIWA scale.
MRI showed incidental cribiform lipoma but no evidence of acute
stroke or intracranial mass/structural lesions to explain
seizures. PT consulted, recommended patient safe to be
discharged to [**Hospital1 **]. He was set up with neurology follow-up
as outpatient.
# EtOH Withdrawal - pt had large benzo requirements on admission
(>200mg valium) now improving. Valium CIWA scale, treated with
thiamine/folate/MVI. SW/Addictions were consulted, recommended
discharge to [**Hospital1 **] for alcohol rehab, to which patient agreed
(is contemplative about quitting).
# GIB - In ED, reportedly had >600cc bright red NG drainage.
Underwent EGD with clipping of ulcers. Scope also suggestive of
portal gastropathy. HCT stable on floor. Continued oral PPI on
discharge. Kept active T&S, and adequate PIV access during
admission.
# EtOH Liver Disease - LFTs with AST/ALT ratio > 2 consistent
with alcoholic hepatitis. Discriminant function 23 on admission.
RUQ with portal HTN.
Liver followed. Hepatitis serologies showed borderline hepatitis
B. Mild fevers, likely due to alcoholic hepatitis. Infectious
work-up negative (negative blood, urine cultures, CXR).
# Tongue lesion - needs dental f/u on discharge given risk for
head/neck cancer from alcohol and tobacco abuse.
# Tobacco abuse - smoking cessation
# Hypertension: Added amlodipine.
# Cocaine/Marijuana use - SW consulted. Going to [**Hospital1 **] for
[**Hospital **] rehab.

Chief Complaint:
Anemia
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
Briefly, 85 yo woman w/ transfusion dependant myelofiborisis,
diastolic CHF, small bowel AVM's, chronic venous insufficiency
who was transferred from rehab for anemia on [**11-16**] (HCT 21). In
ED CXR showed early RLL infiltrate w/ pulm edema and she was
admitted to Medicine w/ dx of symptomatic anemia, aspiration
PNA, and CHF. She was treated w/ IVF's, PRBCs, and 40mg lasix
IV, and was placed initially on levoflox and flagyl for presumed
aspiration PNA. On HD #2 patient found to be hypotensive,
tachycardic, febrile, increasing O2 requirement after receiving
40 mg IV lasix, and was treated with IVF's, dopamine, ceftaz and
levo and transferred to the MICU. Concern was for sepsis
(fever, low WBC, tachycardia thought to be sedondary to PNA) vs
hypotension, but the patient responded well to IVF boluses and
PRBC's, and pressors were weaned off by HD #3.
The pt denies dyspnea, chest pain. She does report recent
increase in LE edema and orthopnea. She denies any recent fever,
chills, weight loss, chest pain, palps, cough, abd pain,
dysuria, melena, and hematochezia.
Past Medical History:
1. Myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia, diagnosed [**2124**]. The
patient has been transfusion dependent, requiring frequent
admissions for transfusions. She was managed with prednisone 20
mg qod and thalidomide but now on hold per by Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) **]/[**Last Name (STitle) **]
2. AVMs in the small bowel diagnosed by capsule endoscopy, but
she has been guaiac negative during her admissions in the past.
EGD in [**5-/2130**] was normal.
3. H/O left pleural effusion of unknown etiology
4. Spinal stenosis
5. Glaucoma
6. Synovial cyst- This was visualized by ultrasound and CT on

Brief Hospital Course:
The patient is an 85 yo woman w/ transfusion dependant
myelofiborisis and diastolic CHF was sent from rehab to ED for
treatment of HCT 21. On arrival in the ED, T 96.3, BP 104/54, HR
95, O2 sat 92% RA-->98% 2L/m. A CXR showed an early RLL
infiltrate and pulmonary edema. She was admitted to Medicine
with a diagnosis of symptomatic anemia, aspiration PNA, and CHF.
She was treated w/ 3L NS, 2units PRBCs, and 40mg lasix IV. The
day after admission, she had temp of 100.0 and was treated with
levoflox 250mg IV and flagyl 500mg IV. UOP was 1600cc overnight.
At 3:45pm the next day, the patient was given lasix 40mg IV. 35
minutes later she was found to have BP 75/39, HR 120, RR 24, and
O2 sat 96% on 2L--> 100% NRB. Temp at that time was 101.8
rectal. She was treated w/ 1L NS, dopamine by PIV, and ceftaz
2gm, and levaquin 500mg. Within the hour, BP increased to 92/34,
HR 110. The MICU team was then consulted for evaluation. The
patient was transferred to the MICU for treatment of possible
sepsis thought most likely secondary to PNA. She was treated
with vanocmycin and ceftaz.
The patient was transferred out the floor. Her antibiotics were
switched to vancoycin and ceftriaxone with a plan to treat for a
10 day course. She was gently diuresed with lasix 10mg IV QD.
We continued to transfuse for hct<21 and platelets<15.
The patient continued to have increasing amounts of rectal
bleeding thought secondary to internal hemorroids in the setting
of platelets <20. A GI consult was called. The patient refused
an exam, but the GI team advised continuing to give platelets
and PRBC. On [**2131-11-20**], the patient chose to change her code
status from full code to DNR/DNI. Later that day, the patient
began to have hematuria and [**Date Range **] tingled sputum. Her breathing
became more labored. She improved with lasix and morphine, but
continued to become intermittently hypotensive and was again
spiking fevers. A family meeting with the patient and her son
lead to a decision to make the patient CMO. All treatments
other than lasix/morphine/and ativan were stopped. The patient
was started on a morphine drip on [**2131-11-22**] and passed away on
[**2131-11-23**]. The family was notified and refused autopsy.

Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
Thoracentesis
History of Present Illness:
This is a 62-year-old gentleman with HIV (not compliant with
HAART, most recent CD4 220), DM2 with nephropathy (baseline Cr
1.8-2.0), Hodgkin's and Burkitt's lymphoma (s/p doxorubicin,
vinblastine, dacarbazine now in remission), CHF (EF 22% in
[**1-/2142**]) with recent admission to [**Hospital1 18**] from [**Date range (1) 39579**] for RLL
pneumonia treated with 10 days of levofloxacin (end date
[**2142-4-26**]). He was discharged to rehab. He presented to PCP
today with SOB and orthopnea (needs to sit in a chair to sleep).
Denies chest pain. Continues to have non-productive cough,
anorexia and fatigue. Denies fever. He also notes increased
abdominal distention but regular non-bloody bowel movements and
regular urination. CXR in [**Hospital 3390**] clinic today revealed large right
sided effusion.
In the ED, initial vitals were 98.5 90 136/96 24 100% 4L. Labs
notable for WBC 9.1 with 1% band, 3% myelo, 3% meta, Cr 1.8
(baseline ~2), BUN 36, Na 132, K 5.3, lactate 2.8, ALT 105, AST
83, AP 605. UA with 100+ protein, no WBCs. Blood and urine
cultures sent. CT torso with contrast showed simple large right
pleural effusion with RLL collapse and abdominal free fluid. He
received cefepime, vancomycin and metronidazole. Zofran given
for nausea. Paracentesis not attempted due to poorly identified
effusion. Over ED course, dyspnea increased to 30-40, sats 92%
RA and 94% on 2L so admitted to MICU. IP [**Name (NI) 653**], planning
for thoracentesis in AM. Most recent vitals: 82 130/82 20 94%
2L.
In the MICU, patient reports feeling better, breathing is
comfortable. He states his dry weight is 149lb. He weighs in at
154lbs today. He received Torsemide 40 mg IV 1x and got a had a
diagnostic thoracentesis which revealed a transudative effusion.
Cultures of fluid are pending. CXR after tap revealed some
resolution of effusion. He was also found to be somewhat
hyperkalemia to 5.5 but more torsemide was not given because of
concern regarding renal function due to his chronic DM related
renal disease as well as recent contrast administration.
Currently, he reports that he feels much better and does not
have SOB when sitting or lying down. He denies any pain but says
that this abdomen continues to feel distended.

Brief Hospital Course:
This is a 62-year-old gentleman with HIV CD4 220, DM2, CKD,
Hodgkin's/Burkitt's lymphoma, CHF (LVEF 22%) with recent RLL
pneumonia and interval development of right pleural effusion.
While in the emergency department, patient had respiratory rates
in the 30 - 40s and was admitted to ICU for tachypnea.
# RIGHT PLEURAL EFFUSION: Patient presented to PCP's office for
worsening dyspnea, was found to have increased pleural effusion.
Patient was sent to ED and subsequently admitted to the MICU
for tachypnea. His effusion was drained by IP. The fluid did
not appear pustular on thoracentesis and patient felt much
improved after fluid removal. CHF exacerbation seems most
probable given recently reduced torsemide, abdominal distention
with free fluid, simple appearing effusion, and weight gain.
Patient was initially treated with vancomycin and cefepime, but
the vancomycin was stopped after plerual fluid gram stain showed
no microorganisms. Cefepime was also later discontinued.
Pleural culture and cytology both returned negative.
# ACUTE ON CHRONIC CHF EXACERBATION: Suspected secondary to
torsemide being held since recent admission and recent
pneumonia. Patient received IV torsemide on arrival to MICU.
He received 80mg lasix IV after transfer to the floor on HD2.
He was then transitioned to home dose of PO torsemide 20mg [**Hospital1 **]
with good response.
# DIARRHEA: C.diff negative. Likely in setting of recent
antibiotics.
# CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE: Suspected secondary to DM2, creatinine
currently at baseline.
# TRANSAMINITIS: Likely congestive hepatopathy, vs HIV
cholangiopathy. LFTs were trended and remained stable.
.
# HIV: Last CD4 count of 220 in [**2142-3-27**] with HIV PCR VL 780.
CD4 nadir has been in the 70s; patient recently initiated HAART
therapy, but compliance is uncertain. Last admission team
suspected [**Female First Name (un) **] esophagitis and potentially HIV
encephalopathy. During this admission, patient was continued
Abacavir, Atazanavir, Lamivudine and Ritonavir. Continued
atovaquone for PCP [**Name Initial (PRE) 1102**]. Will continue fluconazole for 2
weeks through [**2142-5-9**]. A repeat viral loa
# DM2: HBA1C 8.4 most recently, compliance is difficult.
During admission, patient was maintained on an insulin sliding
scale with QID fingerstick checks and glargine 15 units qHS.
Held glipizide during admission. He is to be restarted on his
home dose medications after discharge.
# HYPONATREMIA: Mild, suspect hypervolemic secondary to heart
failure. Patient was diuresed with toresemide and sodium
remained stable. Na 136 at discharge.
Medications on Admission:
1. abacavir 300 mg Tablet Sig: Two (2) Tablet PO DAILY (Daily).
2. atazanavir 150 mg Capsule Sig: Two (2) Capsule PO DAILY
(Daily).

Chief Complaint:
R hip pain
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
s/p R THR
History of Present Illness:
76 yo F w/long standing cardiac history (followed by [**Hospital1 18**] cards
Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 9764**] including severe AS and MR, with longstanding
h/o R hip pain, difficulty with ADLs, and limited ROM. She was
thought to meet clinical and radiographic criteria for R hip
total arthroplasty. She was not cleared from a cardiac
perspective, however, despite extensive work up and discussion
about resolving cardiac issues surgically before undergoing
orthopaedic intervention, she refused cardiac treatment and
elected to undergo R THR, understanding the substantial risks
posed by this. The patient was otherwise feeling well prior to
the procedure, and now presents for R THR.
Past Medical History:
Past Medical History: Rheumatic heart disease as a child with
above-mentioned severe aortic stenosis and 4+ mitral
regurgitation, no evidence of any coronary disease to my
knowledge. She also has hypertension. She apparently has had
syncope twice in the past, and of course, has severe heart
murmurs. She has GERD, but no ulcer history and chronic anemia.
History of colon cancer resection [**2132**] and osteoarthritis.
Surgical History: [**2132**] partial colectomy for cancer, no
subsequent problems, [**2139**] left distal radius ORIF.
Social History:
Russian physician, [**Name10 (NameIs) 4183**] to USA in [**2130**].
Lives locally with son and husband. G1, P1 nonsmoker, denies
alcohol use, rarely able to exercise.
Family History:
Non-contributory
Physical Exam:
Russian interpreter present, but we are
able to communicate somewhat even in the absence of the
interpreter. Her English is reasonable. She is 5 feet, 3
inches, 155 pounds with a BMI of 27.5. Focal examination
revealed prior workup showing right hip flexion only to 100
degrees. Leg lengths equal, 10 degrees internal, 20 degrees
external rotation right hip with pain at the extremes. Retained
[**4-27**] hip flexion and abductor strength. Good vascular inflows
without peripheral edema.
Brief Hospital Course:
On [**2142-12-27**] patient was brought to the operating room and
underwent right total hip replacement. The case was
uncomplicated with 500cc EBL. Please see Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) **] operative
note for details. Post-operatively, the patient was transferred
overnight to the ICU for overnight monitoring given her
significant cardiac issues. The patient was treated with 24
hours of antibiotic for prophylaxis of infection. Lovenox was
given for DVT prophylaxis and TEDS and pneumoboots were used.
The patient was made WBAT on the operative extremity with
posterior hip precautions and physical therapy assisted with
mobilization. Home medications were restarted.
On POD 1, she was found to have hct 25 and low UO of 25-20cc.
she was otherwise stable for a HD standpoint. The patient was
transfused 1U for this, with appropriate bump in her hct and UO.
The patient was transferred to the floor in stable condition on
POD 2. Per medical recommendations to keep hct>30, received 2U
additional units on POD 2 but was otherwise HD stale. 20IV
lasix x1 was given afterwards for prevention of fluid overload.
Otherwise, pt did very well w/o any cardiac issues.
Prior to discharge the patient was afebrile with stable vital
signs. Pain was adequately controlled on a PO regimen. The
operative extremity was neurovascularly intact and the wound was
benign. Patient was discharged in stable condition on POD 4.

mild severity.
Impression: Diverticulosis of the whole colon. Diverticulum in
the ascending colon
.
[**10-15**] Tagged RBC Findings: Negative GI bleeding study.
.
[**10-13**] MRI L-spine: The alignment of the lumbar spine demonstrate
minimal anterolisthesis at L4-L5. The signal intensity in the
vertebral bodies is slightly heterogeneous, likely consistent
with degenerative changes. The intervertebral disc space at
L1-L2 appears unremarkable. At L2-L3 no significant neural
foraminal narrowing or spinal canal stenosis is identified.
L3-L4 demonstrates disc desiccation and mild posterior diffuse
disc bulge producing mild bilateral neural foraminal narrowing,
no frank evidence of nerve root compression is detected.
Bilateral hypertrophy of the articularjoint facets as well as
the ligamentum flavum is observed at this level. At L4-L5, there
is evidence of disc desiccation, mild posterior broad-based disc
bulge producing bilateral neural foraminal narrowing, right
greater than left with possible contact on the right [**Name (NI) 5774**] nerve
root, please correlate specifically with this finding, bilateral
articular joint facet hypertrophy is also noted associated with
bilateral ligamentum flavum thickening. At this level, there is
evidence of significant spinal canal stenosis, the thecal sac
measures approximately 6 mm in the anterior, posterior diameter.
At L5-S1, there is evidence of disc desiccation, posterior
broad-based disc bulge producing bilateral neural foraminal
narrowing and significant spinal canal stenosis, left greater
than right with possible contact on the [**Name (NI) 13032**] nerve root.
Bilateral articular joint facet hypertrophy and ligamentum
flavum thickening is noted at this level. There is also
evidence of irregular contour of the inferior endplate at L5
consistent with a Schmorl's node and bone marrow replacement for
fat in the endplates. Vacuum phenomena is also detected in the
intervertebral disc space. The sacroiliac joints, visualized
aspect of the retroperitoneum and vascular structures appear
grossly normal. IMPRESSION: Multilevel degenerative changes of
the lumbar spine as described in detail above. At L4-L5, there
is evidence of disc desiccation and posterior broad-based disc
bulge producing right side neural foraminal narrowing with
possible contact on the right nerve root of [**Name (NI) 5774**]. At L5-S1, there
is evidence of a left paracentral disc protrusion producing left
side neural foraminal narrowing and possible contact on the left
[**Name (NI) 13032**] nerve root, moderate-to-severe spinal canal stenosis is
identified at this level.
Brief Hospital Course:
76 year old female with history of HTN and sciatica presented
with 4x BRBPR in setting of 2 weeks intermittent constipation.
Brief hospital course by problem:
1.Diverticular bleed - The patient presented with BRBPR x4 and
gassy abdominal pain in the setting of intermittent constipation
of several weeks duration. GI was consulted, a NG lavage in the
ED was negative, and the patient was treated with fluid
resucitation with her systolic pressure running below baseline
in the 110s. Hematocrit on admission was 31.3 and stable for the
first 12 hours. She had no white count, temperature or acute
abdominal pain. She was transferred to the MICU for observation
overnight and prep for a colonoscopy in the am. She had one
episode of hypotension into the 90s associated with
lightheadedness and one bloody BM overnight. Her hct dropped to
28.3 and early on [**10-10**] she was transfused 2 u PRBCs with an
increase back to 34.9. She went for colonoscopy where numerous
diverticula were seen throughout the colon, at least one with
evidence of inflamation. Though no source of acute bleeding was
seen, diverticuli were felt to be the etiology of bleed. She was
transferred to the floor and remained hemodynamically stable. On
[**10-12**] however, she experienced renewed melanotic stools and was
transferred to the MICU for observation. Her hematocrit remained
>30, and she returned to the floor on [**10-13**]. Late on [**10-14**] her
first bowel movement since her MICU stay was streaked with
bright red blood, and she was sent for a tagged red blood cell
scan which did not demonstrate any bleeding. She remained
hemodynamically stable and passed another stool with difficulty
on [**10-16**] that was formed, brown, but streaked with bright red
blood, thought likely secondary to hemorrhoids. Her HCT was
stable and was at baseline (33.3) on the morning of discharge.
She will need to continue on an aggressive bowel regimen to
prevent constipation as this may have aggravated what was surely
underlying but silent diverticular disease.
.
2.HTN: The patient has a history of hypertension on HCTZ and
CCB. These were held on [**10-9**] and [**10-10**] secondary to bleeding, but
were restarted on [**10-11**] as the patient was hemodynamically
stable.
.
3.Sciatica - The patient continued to complain of lower back
pain radiating into her leg consistent with her well documented
hx of sciatica and L4/5 disease. She was seen by orthopaedics,
who had recommended medical treatment and physical therapy with
followup with ortho-spine if symptoms persist. She comes to
[**Hospital1 18**] from [**First Name4 (NamePattern1) 1188**] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) **] where she has been receiving
rehabilitation for this condition. She was continued on Tylenol
and opioids for breakthrough pain. It appears her Amitryptiline
had been recently discontinued. Opioids were initially used
cautiously and at low doses given constipation and its role in
potentially instigating her bleed, with minimal requests. Pain
control was adequate at rest, but she was unable to ambulate.
She complained of increased left lower extremity weakness and
was sent for an MRI of her lumbar spine. MRI demonstrated the
following findings: 1. Multilevel degenerative changes of the
lumbar spine; 2. At L4-L5, there is evidence of disc desiccation
and posterior broad-based disc bulge producing right side neural
foraminal narrowing with possible contact on the right nerve
root of [**Name (NI) 5774**]; 3. At L5-S1, there is evidence of a left paracentral
disc protrusion producing left side neural foraminal narrowing
and possible contact on the left [**Name (NI) 13032**] nerve root,
moderate-to-severe spinal canal stenosis is identified at this
level. She was examined by the spine team who felt that she
would likely benefit from an inpatient pain consult and
outpatient work-up of her spine findings. They deferred surgical
intervention at this point given her unresolved GI bleeding
issues. The chronic pain team was consulted and deferred steroid
injection, saying that it might aggrevate her GI bleeding. Under
their recommendation she was started on neurontin 300mg TID to
assist with the pain. She is to follow up with orthopedics and
chronic pain clinics as an outpatient.
.
She is being discharged to [**First Name4 (NamePattern1) 2299**] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) **] on standing Tylenol and
neurontin with oxycodone for breakthrough pain. We have
reinforced the importance of continuing a bowel regimen if she
continues narcotic pain medication.
.
4. Hyponatremia: Patient had a serum Na of 123 at presentation.
Per her PCP, [**Name10 (NameIs) **] was 138 on [**9-24**]. Hyponatremia was thought
likely secondary to volume depletion in the context of blood
loss +/- cathartic diarrhea. The urine was paradoxically dilute
with Uosm =113. A serum [**Month/Year (2) **] post-fluid repletion was 140.
.
5. Social: Patient was very distressed on [**10-11**] am regarding a
situation with her non-biological 12 year old granddaughter
[**Name (NI) 17976**], who is in her care. Her estranged biological daughter
[**Name (NI) 107509**] was threatening to call DSS to remove [**Last Name (un) 17976**] from a
friend's apartment where she's staying. DSS was involved in
past, but the patient's pastor confirms that she has helped to
resolve that issue by enrolling [**Last Name (un) 17976**] in school. The daughter
additionally came to the hospital to convey the message that
patient is drug seeking. The patient denied overuse of
medications, and this accusation was not verified by her pastor
or primary care physician.
.
Dispo: The patient was discharged back to her rehabilitation
center in stable condition with instructions to return to the
hospital if she has another bowel movement with significant
blood loss (more than bright red blood streaking) or if she
becomes hemodynamically unstable.

Discharge Disposition:
Extended Care
Facility:
[**Hospital3 1186**] - [**Location (un) 538**]
Discharge Diagnosis:
Primary Diagnoses:
1)Diverticular bleeding
2)Sciatica from lumbar degenerative disease and disc compression
of nerve roots
Secondary Diagnoses:
1)Hypertension
Discharge Condition:
Hemodynamically stable. HCT 33.3 (baseline). No large bloody
stool since [**10-12**]. Since then she has had 2 formed stools with a
small amount of blood streaking on the outside.
Discharge Instructions:
You have been diagnosed with diverticular bleeding, a condition
in which abnormal outpouchings in the wall of your intestines
can cause rapid bleeding via your rectum. We treated you with
fluids and a blood transfusion for support and completed a
colonoscopy to locate any specific sources of the bleeding. It
was this test that showed the diverticula (outpouchings).
Constipation may cause diverticula or cause them to bleed. It is
very important that you continue on the regimen we've outlined
to keep your bowels moving regularly. Your outpatient doctors
[**Name5 (PTitle) **] [**Name5 (PTitle) 9004**] to adjust your pain medications, since opioid narcotics
(oxycodone, morphine, etc.) can aggravate constipation,
especially if you are not taking other agents to keep your
bowels moving.
We continued to treat your sciatica with pain medication. We
obtained an MRI of the lumbar spine which showed disc protrusion
and possible compression of some of your lumbar nerve roots
which would explain your symptoms. You were evaluated by
orthopedics who deferred surgical intervention at this point
given your other medical issues. By their recommendation you
were evaluated by the chronic pain clinic who decided not to
give you a steroid injection at this point, but recommended
adding neurontin to your medications for pain management. We
started this medication as well. You are being discharged to
[**First Name4 (NamePattern1) 2299**] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) **] where physical therapists and doctors [**Name5 (PTitle) **] [**Name5 (PTitle) **]
with you more to treat this condition. We are recommending that
you take tylenol four times a day and oxycodone as needed for
breakthrough pain. We have also added a new medication
(protonix) to help prevent your stomach from forming ulcers
which may bleed. Please take this medication as prescribed.
Please call your primary care physician, [**Last Name (NamePattern4) **]. [**Last Name (STitle) 6924**], to schedule a
follow-up visit once you leave rehab. You should also modify
your diet to include adequate fiber as this may help prevent
constipation and diverticular disease.
If you experience any blood in your stools (more than just blood
streaks), black stools, maroon-colored stools, or change in your
bowel movements, you should contact your primary care physician
or go to the emergency room. Please also seek medical attention
if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness,
lightheadedness or weakness.
Followup Instructions:
- Please contact Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 6924**] at [**Hospital3 4262**] Group to schedule a
followup visit once you are discharged from [**First Name4 (NamePattern1) 2299**] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) **]

Brief Hospital Course:
35 yo F w/significant psych Hx and multiple suicide attempts,
admitted unresponsive, presumably after OD. (Most likely
Fioricet.) Now extubated, off pressors.
.
1) Tylenol Overdose: Level 267 on admission, decreased to 0
within 24h. In the ED she received activated charcoal and
mucomyst 10g PO. Mucomyst was continued for 11 doses total
(stopped when LFTs showed no sign of increase above normal).
Coags and LFTs remained wnl. Mucomyst then discontinued.
.
CXR suggested pneumonia, possibly related to aspiration, so
clinda was started. Mental status improved and the patient was
extubated on HD #2.
.
2) Barbiturate Overdose: Pt was found unresponsive and intubated
in the field. By HD #2 mental status was improving and pt was
extubated. By the time of discharge mental status was normal.
Pt was kept on a CIWA scale and monitored for signs of
withdrawal throughout hospital course. Vital signs remained
stable.
.
3) Hypotension: Initially hypotensive with SBP in the 60s. On
levophed for BP support with good response, but then weaned off
after fluid resuscitation. [**Last Name (un) **] stim test had an inadequate
bump, but hypotension had already resolved so steroids were not
started. Monitored bp which remained stable and was 115/79 on
day of discharge.
.
4) Aspiration pneumonia: Bibasilar consolidation noted on CXR.
Will continue treatment with clindamycin for 7 days (day [**1-8**]).
.
5) Asthma: Continued inhalers.
.
6) Psych/suicide attempt: Psychiatry followed patient during
hospital stay. Pt had a 1:1 sitter throughout hospital course.
Risperidone was given prn for anxiety. Patient will have
psychiatric hospitalization for suicide attempt after discharge
from medical service now that patient is medically cleared.
.
7) Proph: PPI, SC heparin was discontinued due to PTT elevation,
PTT then normalized.
.
8) Code status: Full
.
9) Dispo: Patient medically cleared on [**2142-7-20**] for transfer to
psychiatric care. She is afebrile, temp 97.2, heart rate 68, bp
117/79 and oxygen saturation 97% on room air. Her Tylenol level
is now undetectable and LFTs within normal limits. Aspiration
pneumonia treated with Clindamycin and to complete 7 day course
of antibiotics.

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: Mr. [**Known lastname 68742**] is a 67-year-old
male with metastatic renal cell carcinoma, admitted to begin
cycle 1, week 2 high-dose IL-2 on the select IL-2 protocol.
His oncologic history began in the winter of [**2175**], when he
developed a right varicocele and hematuria with CT confirming
a right renal mass. On [**2176-1-20**], he underwent right
laparoscopic nephrectomy with an 11-cm tumor noted, clear
cell histology [**Last Name (un) 19076**] grade 2 with positive renal vein
involvement, but all lymph nodes negative. He enrolled in an
NIH adjuvant vaccine trial for 8 to 9 months, but was removed
from that due to development of lung nodules. Serial scans
confirmed growth and he began cycle 1, week 1 high-dose IL-2
on the select IL-2 trial on [**2178-2-24**], receiving 7 of
14 doses, with course complicated by dyspnea, hypoxia and
neurotoxicity. He was admitted on [**2178-3-9**] for week #2
of therapy, but a pericardial effusion was noted and he
underwent a pericardial window via left mini-thoracotomy. He
tolerated this procedure well. He is now admitted for week 2
of therapy. His echocardiogram today reveals a small
pericardial effusion without tamponade, which appears
loculated. Left ventricular EF is greater than 65%. Chest x-
ray reveals a small left pleural effusion with worsening left
lower lobe opacity. His shortness of breath had improved and
he had no fevers or chills. He was cleared to restart high-
dose IL-2 therapy.
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: Hypertension, status post left
adrenalectomy and splenectomy secondary to adenomyolipoma, in
[**2169-7-5**], complicated by subdiaphragmatic abscess, hepatitis
A as a teenager, ventral hernia repair, OA and gout.

HOSPITAL COURSE: Mr. [**Known lastname 68742**] was admitted and underwent
central line placement to begin therapy. His admission weight
was 120 kg. He received interleukin-2 600,000 international
units per kg, equaling 72 million units IV q.8h. x14
potential doses. During this week, he received 3 of 14 doses,
with his course complicated by tachypnea, hypoxia and
hypotension. He required ICU transfer at that time. He was
treated with CPAP and was weaned to O2 by nasal cannula. He
was ruled out for an MI by cardiac enzymes. He was placed on
Levophed and IV fluid for hypotension. Blood cultures were
sent to rule out infection, and he was maintained on
vancomycin and cefepime. He transferred back to the floor 2
days later, one weaned from blood pressure support. One set
of blood cultures drawn from arterial line on [**2178-3-18**]
revealed 1 of 2 bottles positive for staph coag negative,
felt to be a contaminant. He had followup blood cultures x2
sets on [**2178-3-19**], without evidence of growth. His
antibiotics were continued until his blood cultures returned.
His central line was discontinued and he was discharge to
home on [**2178-3-20**].
CONDITION ON DISCHARGE: Stable.

Brief Hospital Course:
ASSESSMENT AND PLAN, AS REVIEWED AND DISCUSSED IN MULTI
DISCIPLINARY ROUNDS : Mr. [**Known lastname **] is a [**Age over 90 **] year old man with a
history of CAD (s/p CABG and mult. stent placements), type II
diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia who presented with
chest pain and shortness of breath and found to have an ST
elevation myocardial infarction based on EKG and cardiac
enzymes. Status post cardiac catheterization with thrombectomy
and balloon angioplasty of the SBG-OM graft.
.
CAD/STEMI: Patient is s/p cardiac cath with thrombectomy and
balloon angioplasty of the SBG-OM graft. Cardiac enzymes were
cycled with a peak CPK of 773 and a peak CK-MB of 95. The fact
that the patient had thrombosis of a bare metal stent in the
SBG-OM graft while on a home dose aspirin and Plavix is
concerning for some sort of hypercoagulable state. The patient
was therefore started on Plavix 75mg PO BID. The patient was
continued on aspirin 325 mg daily, continued on Integrilin for
18 hours after catheterization, atorvastatin 80 mg, and a nitro
drip (which was later weaned.) Metoprolol was titrated up to 75
mg PO TID. The patient was also started on isosorbide 30mg TID.
An ACE inhibitor was held until hospital day 4 because of the
history of chronic renal insufficiency and the recent cardiac
catheterization dye load. The lisinopril then was started and
titrated up to 20mg Daily. A lipid panel showed and HDL of 37
and LDL of 62,
.
Pump/CHF: Patient has history of LVEF of 50% with diastolic
dysfunction repeat ECHO showed and an ejection fraction of 20%
with inferior, septal, and anterior hypokinesis. On admission
exam, the patient had bilateral crackles and pedal edema.
Admission chest x-ray showed infiltrates. Therefore the patient
was given Lasix 20mg IV for three days. The patient was 4.5
liters negative for the length of stay with decreasing oxygen
requirement (now on room air) and resolved pedal edema. The
patient will be discharged on his home dose of Lasix 20mg PO
Daily. The patient was maintained on a beta blocker and an ACE
inhibitor was started on hospital day 4.
.
Rhythm: Patient stayed in normal sinus rhythm. Occasional
premature atrial beats.
.
Resp: On admission to the CCU, the patient was
intubated/sedated. The ventilator setting were weaned and the
patient passed a pressure support trial. An arterial blood gas
before extubation showed a ph of 7.45, pCO2 of 40, and pO2 of
90. On the evening of admission, the patient was extubated
successfully. Since that time the patient has had decreasing
oxygen requirement and was discharged on room air.
.
Hypotension: On transport from the cath lab, the patient became
bradycardic and hypotensive (SBP to the 80's.) The patient was
given atropine with good response. The patient was also started
on a neosynephrine drip which was quickly weaned. This episode
was thought to be due to a post-cath vaso-vagal event or recent
administration of propofol. There was concern from a cardiac
tamponade and/or ACS an ECHO was rapidly performed and ruled
this out. The patient did not have any more hypotensive
episodes.
.
Respiratory Acidosis: ABG on admission showed a ph of 7.20 pCO2
of 58, and pO2 of 314 consistent with respiratory acidosis. The
respiratory rate was increased and repeat ABG showed a pH of
7.47, pCO2 of 29, and pO2 of 193.
.
DM type II: A HbA1c was 5.8%. The patient was maintained on an
insulin sliding scale. The patient was restarted on his home
dose of glipized before discharge.
.
ID/Fever: On [**2103-7-21**], the patient had rectal temperature to
102.4. The patient was started on a course of levofloxacin for
possible pneumonia (equivocal infiltrate on CXR). Blood
cultures were negative and and urine cultures grew enterococcus
sensitive to ampicillin, nitrofuratoin, and vancomycin. The
patient was started on a 10 day course of amoxicillin on [**2103-7-24**]
and remained afebrile throughout the rest of his stay.
.
Renal Function: Patient has history of chronic renal
insufficiency with a baseline Cr of 1.8-2.0, and received
Acetylcysteine x2 after catheterization. His renal function
remained stable and he is discharged on lisinopril 20mg.
.
Hematuria: Mr. [**Known lastname **] developed hematura on aspirin, Plavix,
heparin, and Integrilin. Because of clots, urology was
consulted and a 3 way catheter was placed and irrigated. The
catheter was removed the next day w/o complication and he was
urinating wihtout difficulty on discharge.
.
Prophy: The patient was maintained on a bowel regimen, proton
pump inhibitor, and Heparin SQ.
.
Access: Right SCV line was placed on [**2103-7-21**] and removed on
[**2103-7-23**]. Patient had peripheral IV access at that time.

History of Present Illness:
55yoF with alcoholic cirrhosis s/p TIPS [**1-/2118**] found down by her
husband.
The patient has a history of depression which her husband, [**Name (NI) **],
reports has been exacerbated lately by several stressful
situations including her chronic back pain, finances, etc. She
was last seen to be interactive and appropriate at 06:00am this
morning by her husband. [**Name (NI) **] son saw her at 11am, but thought
the patient was asleep and did not attempt to wake her. She was
subsequently found down on the floor by her husband at 3pm, 9
hours after last being seen, who describes her as being in a
fetal position with her eyes rolled to the back of her head and
her mouth wide open. Her husband began to lift the patient off
the floor and she bit him on the shoulder and did not appear to
recognize him. She was take to [**Hospital6 33**] where she
was was found to be responsive to verbal stimuli but unable to
interact appropriately. She was intubated. Coffee grounds
returned from her OGT and she was hypotensive in the 80's/40's.
FS was 22 and received glucose, T was 94.6, and she was placed
on a bear hugger. pH was 6.8, lacate 25, creatine 3.2, bicarb
4. She was received 2 amps bicarb, 1 amp D50, and blood
cultures were drawn from her central line. She was started on
bicarb drip, levophed gtt for SBP 80's. She not making urine
after 6L IVF. She was transferred to [**Hospital1 18**] for further
management. R IJ was placed at the OSH and 2 peripheral IVs.
.
Per the husband's report, the patient does have a history of
surreptitious alcohol ingestion on occasion but he has not
noticed or detected any alcohol use recently. He denies the
likelihood of illicit drug use or prescription drug overdose,
stating the only medication she has access to is Tramadol, which
she had not been taking. He denies recent vocalizations by the
patient regarding suicidal ideation.
.
In the [**Hospital1 18**] ED, initial VS: 123 113/29 27 100%
The patient was noted to have 150cc dark coffee ground output
from her OGT, but stool was guiac negative. Hepatology was
consulted, and the patient was started on an Octreotide gtt and
Pantoprazole gtt, and aggressive flushing of the OGT was
recommended. She was ordered to be transfused 1 unit PRBC. She
was empirically treated with Vanc/Levo/Flagyl and CT torso was
obtained, which showed no evidence of infection or acute bleed.
She received 8L IVF in the ED, and was increased on Levophed
0.4mcg/kg/hr. Renal was consulted as the patient had a poor UOP
and was acidotic, and CVVH vs hemodialysis was discussed. The
patient was given Calcium gluconate 2gm, Bicarb gtt @150cc/hr,
and was prepared for possible CVVH tomorrow. Transfer VS were:
112/47, HR 117, 99% 60% PEEP 5, TV 450

Brief Hospital Course:
55yoF with alcoholic cirrhosis s/p TIPS [**1-/2118**] found down by her
husband and admitted to MICU with GIB and resp failure.
Improved in the MICU and was extubated [**6-14**]. On the floor, Ms.
[**Known lastname 696**] was noted to have AMS likely [**1-18**] Korsakoff's amnesia.
1. Abdominal wall hematoma: pt began to complain of pain at site
of what was originally though to be a ventral hernia in LLQ.
the abd protrusion was palpated and had crepitus and could be
reduced, so no action was taken and mass was thought to be a
hernia at that time. Pt was supposed to go for colonoscopy but
K+ was low, so it was delayed until [**2119-7-4**]. pt felt diarrhea
had improved this day. Creatinine was elevated to 2.1 and this
thought to be [**1-18**] poor renal perfusion. pt started on albumin
100mg. Renal u/s was negative for obstruction. Her hct was 17.5
at midnight and pt received 2 units PRBC, repeat hct was 24.8.
Pt's abdominal protrusion had approx doubled in size and was
very tender. Pt went to GI suite for colonoscopy, which did not
show a source of bleeding. After colonoscopy, abdominal
protrusion was over twice as large as in the AM and continued to
progress rapidly throughout day. It developed a bluish
appearance - surgery was consulted and pt sent for non con CT
which showed a hematoma. Repeat Hct after CT was 21.0, so pt
given another unit of PRBC and also transfused 1 unit FFP, and
100mg cryoprecipitate. Cr was down to 2.0 after albumin but
jumped again in the PM to 2.3, likely [**1-18**] ongoing blood loss.
2. post-operative course: Patient was taken for evacuation of
hematoma on [**2119-7-5**] and [**7-6**] with intraop 2L paracentesis.
Intraop: 1u prbc, 1u FFP, albumin. Patient extubated and
responsive postop. Patient transfused 2u PRBC's for Hct 25 in
setting of active bleeding. Additional 7u PRBC next 2 nights. JP
putting out sanguineous fluid, Hct decreasing. Transfused 2u
PRBC, 2 FFP, 1 cryo. Direct pressure applied to LLQ. JP Hct
sent. Ceftriaxone started for SBP per Hepatology recs. on [**7-7**] U PRBC given, started 1/2cc per cc replacement of JP output.
UOP adequate. Pain control adequate. on [**7-8**], 2u FFP given for
INR 1.7. High JP output continued, so NS repletion increased to
cc per cc. Pt later became acutely dyspneic with desaturation to
high 70s. CXR was consistent with flash pulmonary edema. IVF
were discontinued, and pt responded well to BiPAP and 40 IV
Lasix. Pt later weaned to nasal cannula. IVF repletion of JP
output resumed at 1/2cc per cc ratio. Remained persistently
tachycardic throughout. Increasing PVCs improved with K
repletion. Regular diet started. Overnight, she had a burst of
tachycardia to the 170s, EKG unchanged and troponin was
negative. She was transferred from the ICU to the floor on [**7-10**].
She complained of shortness of breath during the day when she
was sitting but also had a component of anxiety. She ambulated,
was tolerating a regular diet, and making good urine. She
continued on her ceftriaxone. On [**7-12**], she underwent a
diagnostic and therapeutic paracentesis, 3L was taken off and
sent for studies, which showed clearance of her SBP. She was
switched to ciprofloxacin. She ambulated with physical therapy.
Tolerating regular diet.
3. Mental status: On transfer to the floor from MICU, the
patient was noted to be confused with AMS. Differential was
initially anoxic brain injury vs. hepatic encephalopathy vs.
delerium vs. withdrawal. Psych and neuro were consulted.
Benzos were weaned. Lactulose was provided and an MRI brain
revealed no evidence of anoxic brain injury. Given the
prominence of the patient's confabulations and the absence of
memory loss, it was suspected by neurology that the patient was
suffering from Korsakoff's amnesia. The patient's family was
informed of this diagnosis.
4. GIB: Patient with coffee grounds out of NG tube on admission
and noted to have bright red blood coming from NG tube during
first several days of admission. She was started on Octreotide
and Pantoprazole gtt's. She was given 1u plts, 3u FFP, 3u
PRBC's, 10 mg IV Vitamin K through admission. Liver was
consulted, and felt since imaging showed patent TIPS that UGIB
from portal HTN was unlikely. Pt was eventually scoped which
showed 2cm non-bleeding ulcer with clot overlying and she was
given an NG tube holiday to prevent irritation and allow
healing. Also showed mild portal gastropathy. Hct was stable by
call out of MICU. On the floor, the patient was HD stable. On
[**6-23**], it was noted that the patient was tachycardic to the 140s.
HCT fell from 34.4 to 28.7 and BRBPR was noted. The patient had
undergone a sigmoidoscopy to evaluate for ?ischemic colitis the
day prior without a bleeding source noted. On the AM of [**6-23**] she
underwent an endoscopy also without evidence of a bleeding
source. The patient was transfused with appropriate HCT
response and remained stable without BRBPR afterward. Source of
bleeding was likely hemorrhoidal. From [**6-27**] - [**6-29**] she was
transfused 4u pRBCs total.
5. Hypotension: Fluid resuscitated with crystalloid and colloid.
Started on Levophed gtt. Arterial line placed. She was given
broad spectrum ABx (Vanc/Zosyn) and the only culture which grew
out was MSSA in her sputum. Echo was normal. Of note, after
weaned from pressors and stabilized, necessitated diuresis for
volume overload/pulmonary edema.
6. Renal failure: Felt to be ATN due to hypotension vs HRS vs
mild rhabdomyolysis given mildly elevated CK's. She was
initially on a HCO3 gtt, and was fluid resuscitated.
Electrolytes were very abnormal (K, Phos, and Ca) and were
repleted aggressively until they normalized. She never needed
dialysis and her renal function improved.
7. Alcoholic Cirrhosis s/p TIPS: Patient with US in the ED
showing patent TIPS. She received IV thiamine and IV Folate. She
was started on Lactulose and Rifaxamin after extubation; and
liver recommended starting Pentoxyfyline x30 days when pt able.
Repeat U/S on [**2119-7-15**] again showed patent TIPS
8. AFib: She had an episode of AFib with RVR that flipped back
to NSR with IV Metoprolol. No further issues.

Chief Complaint:
shortness of breath
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
None
History of Present Illness:
80yo female with multiple medical problems including
hypertension, recent ICU admission with pulmonary edema and
ARDS, and previous admission for septic hip treatment was
admitted with shortness of breath and chest pain.
.
She has had several recent admissions to [**Hospital1 18**] within the last 3
months.
- [**Date range (1) 44958**] - She was admitted with a right septic hip and
underwent a washout and repair. She was discharged to complete a
6 week course of nafcillin
- [**Date range (1) 44959**]/09 - She was hospitalized with shortness of breath.
During that admission, she was found to have bilateral
infiltrates consistent with multifocal pneumonia and
superimposed pulmonary edema, as well as diffuse alveolar
hemorrhage. For the pneumonia, she was treated with broad
spectrum antibiotics of vancomcyin, zosyn, and azithromycin. For
the pulmonary edema, she was treated aggressively with
diuretics, nitroglycerin, and beta blockers. For the diffuse
alveolar hemorrhage, she was treated for a short time with
steroids complicated by delirium and underwent an extensive
autoimmune work-up which was negative. She was discharged to
rehab with 2L O2 and furosemide 40mg PO bid.
.
While at Rehab, she has developed multiple complications,
including delirium, acute renal failure, fever, chest pain, and
shortness of breath. Her delirium was thought likely related to
medications (received a short course of baclofen), infection,
and renal failure. Regarding her acute renal failure, her
creatinine increased to 2.6 from 1.5 within 2 days after
discharge, her furosemide and anti-hypertensives were
discontinued, and she was started on IVF. Regarding her fever,
she was febrile as high as 102 at the rehab. Regarding her chest
pain and shortness of breath, she was evaluated by a pulmonary
consultant on the day of her transfer and she was thought to be
in a CHF exacerbation.
.
Upon arrival to the ED, temp 100.2, HR 86, BP 133/50, RR 18,
Pulse ox 77% on room air. While in the ED, she remained
afebrile, normotensive, and 96-10% on NRB. She received SL NG x
3 and was then started on a nitro drip for chest pain. She had
blood cultures drawn and received zosyn. She also received zosyn
for pneumonia, was started on a heparin drip for treatment of a
presumed pneumonia, and also given fentanyl 25mcg IV x 1 for
treatment of chest pain.
.
Upon arrival to the floor, she initially reported [**7-24**] chest
pain, which she describes as located across her left anterior
chest, character is pleuritic, duration is intermittent,
worsened with deep inspiration or movement, and reliever with
hydromorphone and rest. Additional review of systems is notable
for the following: shortness of breath, fatigue, back pain
(chronic and unchanged), lower extremity swelling, and neck pain
(chronic and unchanged). Her delirium has markedly improved
according to her daughters.
.
On review of systems, she denies any prior history of stroke,
TIA, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, bleeding at the
time of surgery, myalgias, cough, hemoptysis, black stools, red
stools. He denies shaking chills, rigors. dysuria, diarrhea,
abdominal pain, cough, sputum production. She denies exertional
buttock or calf pain. All of the other review of systems were
negative.
.
Cardiac review of systems is notable for absence of dyspnea on
exertion, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, orthopnea, palpitations,
syncope or presyncope.

.
[**2122-3-29**] CXR: There is fluctuating appearance of the parenchymal
opacities consistent with recurrent pulmonary edema. Compared to
the most recent chest radiograph from [**2122-3-28**], there is
interval progression of parenchymal opacities involving the
entire lungs that is worrisome for interval worsening of
pulmonary edema. No appreciable pleural effusions have been
seen, although small amount of pleural fluid cannot be excluded.
No changes in the sternotomy wires position as well as in the
cardiomediastinal contour have been demonstrated. The
fluctuating character of the parenchymal opacities is more
consistent with pulmonary edema than infection, although
underlying foci of infection or ARDS cannot be completely
excluded.
.
[**2122-3-29**] LENIs: IMPRESSION: No evidence of DVT seen in either
lower extremity.
.
[**2122-3-29**] Renal US : IMPRESSION: No evidence of hydronephrosis
although the right kidney appears smaller than the left.
Brief Hospital Course:
This is a 80yo female with history of multiple medical problems
including recent right hip infection, diastolic dysfunction,
recent hospitalization with intubation, and Type 2 Diabetes
Mellitus was admitted with shortness of breath.
.
1. Shortness of Breath:
Etiology of her shortness of breath is likely multifactorial.
Differential diagnosis includes congestive heart failure
exacerbation related to her recent medication changes and fluid
administration, pneumonia in the setting of rehab stay / recent
hospitalization / recent intubation, and splinting secondary to
her chest pain. An additional possibility includes pulmonary
embolism given her recent hospitalization and immobilization.
Unfortunately she is not a candidate for a CTA at this time due
to her renal failure, and VQ scan would likely not be helpful
due to her diffuse and patchy infiltrates. She was briefly
started on heparin gtt on admission. Bilateral LENI's were
negative on [**3-29**]. Pulm was consulted and thought CHF most likely
and PE unlikely so heparin gtt was stopped, vanco/zosyn for HAP
were started on [**3-28**] and continued. The pt was diuresed
initially on lasix gtt which was transitioned to [**Hospital1 **] lasix prior
to transfer. At the time of transfer, she continues to c/o
inability to take a deep breath but EKG is without changes and
pt has only slight crackles on exam. Would recommend pt be kept
only slightly negative at OSH as her Cr remains above baseline
at 1.9.
.
2. Chest Pain:
Etiology of her chest pain is unclear. Differential includes
pain related to pneumonia, GERD and esophageal irritation s/p
intubation and NGT placement on prior admission. Pt c/o
odynophagia but has no evidence of aspiration. Pericarditis,
pulmonary embolism, or costochondritis were all considered
unlikely. Her description of her pain is also not consistent
with acute coronary syndrome, and her ECG is also unremarkable
for ACS. She was treated for HAP as above and given dilaudid
PRN with poor control of her pain at baseline. In future, GI or
ENT could be consulted to evaluate this odynophagia. PPI was
continued here.
.
3. Fever and Leukocytosis
Most likely [**2-16**] pneumonia. At the time of transfer to the OSH,
blood and urine cultures remain without growth and rapid viral
testing was negative. The pt is being continued on vanco/zosyn
for HAP. The pt needs to be on bactrim s/p osteo for 6 months
but this is on hold while pt on vanco/zosyn. This should be
restarted after current abx finished.
.
4. Acute Renal Failure
Etiology of her acute renal failure likely secondary to
dehydration and aggressive diuresis. Avoided further
nephrotoxins, held ACEI and NSAIDs. In future, would recommend
gentle diuresis.
.
5. Coronary Artery Disease
Continued aspirin and statin. CP not thought c/w ACS. Elevated
trops in setting of unremarkable CK and MB were thought [**2-16**]
renal failure. ECG unchanged. Beta blocker held in setting of
CHF exacerbation and ACEI held in setting of ARF.
.
6. Anemia
Patient's hematocrit has decreased from 33 at last discharge to
25 here this admission. Hct remained stable until discharge.
Iron studies d/w anemia of chronic disease. Retic count elevated
at 2.4 prior to discharge. Would recommend continuing to trend
Hct and guaiac of stools.
.
7. Hypothyroidism
Stable, continued levothyroxine

CAD
Anemia
Discharge Condition:
stable. O2 sat mid 90's on 2L NC. Afebrile. Not tachycardic. BP
stable
Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted here with CHF exacerbation. While you were
here, you were diuresed. You were also treated for hospital
acquired pneumonia. You were briefly started on a heparin drip
for possible pulmonary embolism but this was stopped when
pulmonary consult thought this diagnosis was very unlikely. You
continue to complain of chest pain despite on EKG changed and we
think this could be due to mechanical trauma from recent
intubation and NG tube.
.
Please follow up as below.

Service: CCU
CHIEF COMPLAINT: Substernal chest pain.
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is an 85 year-old female
with known coronary artery disease status post an inferior
myocardial infarction in [**2161**], hypertension, increased
cholesterol, tobacco, who presented with three days of
substernal chest pain. She went to her primary care
physician and was found to have electrocardiogram changes
(deepened T wave inversions in V1 through V6, 2, 3, AVL).
She was chest pain free throughout her primary care
physician's visit. She was sent to the [**Hospital1 190**] Emergency Room, where she had increasing chest
pressure 7 out of 10 substernally with associated
diaphoresis, sinus bradycardia at 45 beats per minute,
systolic blood pressure dropped to the 70s and her
electrocardiogram was notable for 2 to [**Street Address(2) 1755**] elevations in
V1 through V6 and additionally reciprocal T wave inversions
in 2, 3, and AVF. She received half dose of Integrilin,
heparin, aspirin, beta blocker, and was taken directly to the
cardiac catheterization laboratory. There she was found to
have left main coronary artery disease that was short, a left
anterior descending artery that had a proximal tubular lesion
to 80% prior to diagonal, mild to moderate diffuse disease,
mid left anterior descending coronary artery, TIMI two flow
slowly distally. The left circumflex had diffuse disease to
40% involving CX and obtuse marginal, collateral to right
coronary artery. The right coronary artery was mildly
calcified, tubular 80 to 90% proximal to the mid stenoses,
competitive flow seen in RPL, diffuse disease in the mid
right coronary artery. The proximal left anterior descending
coronary artery was dilated with 2.5 by 15 mm open sail at 6
atmospheres and was stented. There was no residual stenosis,
TIMI two fast flow was observed. The cardiac catheterization
was also notable for a cardiac output of 2.7, cardiac index
of 1.8, wedge pressure of 29, elevated filling pressures with
a PA diastolic pressure of 26. The left ventriculogram was
not performed. The patient received intravenous Lasix and
was transferred to the Coronary Care Unit. She was
hemodynamically stable throughout her catheterization.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: Vital signs on admission, temperature
96.5. Blood pressure 108/38. Heart rate 56. Respiratory
rate 15 to 20 sating 95 to 97% on 2 liters. In general, the
patient was talkative and in no acute distress. Her
oropharynx was clear without lesions. She had no JVD. No
carotid bruits. She had a regular rate and rhythm with mild
2 out of 6 early systolic ejection murmur at the bilateral
sternal borders as well as a positive S3. Her lungs were
clear to auscultation. She was without wheezes. Her abdomen
was soft, nontender, nondistended. She had normoactive bowel
sounds and no organomegaly. Her right groin had a small
hematoma without a bruit. She had 1+ pedal pulses
bilaterally and no edema.
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: 1. The patient has a history of
coronary artery disease with an myocardial infarction in
[**2163**]. 2. Increased cholesterol. 3. Hypertension. 4.
Osteoporosis.
CARDIAC MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION: Aspirin 325 mg po q.d.,
Digoxin 0.25 mg po q.d., Atenolol 25 mg po q.d., Lipitor 20
mg po q.d.
SIGNIFICANT LABORATORY FINDINGS ON ADMISSION: Her white
blood cell count was 11.3, hematocrit 41.3, platelets 239.
Chemistries sodium 140, potassium 5.3, BUN 24, creatinine
0.9, glucose 125, CK on admission 136, MB fraction 8,
troponin 6.3. ALT 24, AST 19. Electrocardiogram on
admission as stated above in the history of present illness.
HOSPITAL COURSE: 1. Cardiac: Ischemia; the patient
finished her course of Integrilin and heparin. She was
maintained on aspirin, Plavix and Lipitor. She remained
chest pain free subsequent to her initial presentation in the
Emergency Department. Her peak CKs were 260, her peak MB was
28 and her peak cardiac index was 10.8. She had no further
dynamic electrocardiogram changes throughout her stay. Given
the minimal CK leak presumably the patient had an interrupted
acute myocardial infarction that was amenable to angioplasty
of the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery.
Pump; the patient was noted to have high filling pressures
intracath. She was diuresed adequately and started on an ace
inhibitor as well as a beta blocker when her pressures
tolerated it. Her outpatient Digoxin was not continued on
admission, nor included in her outpatient regimen. The
patient had an echocardiogram performed on [**2163-10-17**].
The ejection fraction was notably 30 to 35%. She had
moderate symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy, moderate
global left ventricular hypokinesis, inferior severe
hypokinesis. Overall her left ventricular systolic function
was moderately decreased. She had 2+ aortic insufficiency.
Also the ascending aorta was noted to be mildly thickened.
Rhythm; the patient had some episodes of sinus bradycardia
during sleep as low as 40 beats per minute. These sinus
bradycardic episodes were asymptomatic and resolved with
awakening and activity.
2. Pulmonary: The patient had no supplemental oxygen
requirements during her hospitalization and did well from a
pulmonary standpoint. The patient was seen by physical
therapy during this hospitalization and was able to ambulate
back to her baseline level of function. The patient was also
advised repeatedly on this admission to quit smoking
cigarettes. The patient was not ready to quit at this time.
FOLLOW UP APPOINTMENTS: The patient will follow up with Dr.
[**First Name4 (NamePattern1) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) 111570**] in Dr. [**First Name8 (NamePattern2) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) **] clinic. The patient will
be called on [**2163-10-18**] with the appointment time and
place. The patient was also instructed to call her primary
care physician, [**First Name4 (NamePattern1) 401**] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) 410**], and set up a follow up
appointment with him in the ensuing weeks.
FOLLOW UP ISSUES: 1. The patient was provided with visiting
home nurse services in order to obtain some medication
teaching.
ALLERGIES ON DISCHARGE: The patient has no known drug
allergies.
DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS: 1. Aspirin 325 mg po q day. 2.
Plavix 75 mg po q.d. to complete a thirty day course and the
patient was written a prescription for an additional 26 days
to complete thirty days. 3. Lipitor 20 mg po q day. 4.
Zestril 2.5 mg po q.d. 5. Atenolol 25 mg po q day. 6.
Miacalcin 2200 IU per ml. 7. Multivitamin. 8. Calcium
carbonate. 9. Vitamin D as she was taking before. 10. The
patient's Digoxin was discontinued and she will not be
resuming this medication.

CXR [**2137-8-16**]
1. Multifocal opacities with a more confluent opacity in the
right upper lung field. These findings are worrisome for
multifocal pneumonia.
2. Bilateral small pleural effusions.
3. Mild to moderate pulmonary edema.
.
Echo [**2137-8-16**]
Normal biventricular cavity size with normal regional and low
normal global left ventricular systolic function. Pulmonary
artery hypertension. Mild-moderate mitral regurgitation. These
findings are suggestive of a primary pulmonary process (OSA,
COPD, etc.).
.
CT Chest [**2137-8-22**]
1. Multifocal pneumonic consolidation predominantly involving
the right upper lobe.
2. Moderate loculated effusion along right minor fissure and
minimal simple effusion bilaterally.
3. Borderline enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes. Prominent right
hilar
appearance could be due to enlarged lymph node or from enlarged
vessles,
however defining a cause was limited due to lack to intravenous
contrast
administration.
4. Bilateral pleural calcifications. Please correlate with
clinical history for asbestos exposure. If a history is
established, follow-up imaging surveillance is recommended.
.
Dishcarge Chest xray [**2137-8-29**]:
In the interval from the prior examination, an endotracheal tube
has been removed and tracheostomy has been placed in standard
position.
Right-sided PICC is unchanged with tip reaching the low SVC.
There is no
significant change in multifocal opacities, greatest at the
right base. Trace pleural effusions may be present. No
pneumothorax is seen. The
cardiomediastinal silhouette is not significantly changed.

Brief Hospital Course:
86 year old male with a history of COPD, DMII, CAD and HTN who
was admitted with respiratory failure and multifocal pneumonia.
.
# Respiratory failure: History of COPD, found to be hypoxic at
[**First Name4 (NamePattern1) 1188**] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) **] to 46% on 2L. CXR showed multifocal pneumonia. He
was given levofloxacin in the ED and was intubated. Febrile to
101 rectally in the ED. Failed extubation due to respiratory
fatigue, tachypnea, and worsening shortness of breath. He was
re-intubated and underwent bronchocopy. BAL revealed MRSA. IP
has was consulted for a tracheotomy tube/PEG which were
performed on [**8-27**]. Pt to continue vanco for a total of 14 days
to end [**9-4**]. He may continue to require Oxycodone as needed for
pain related to his tracheostomy tube.
His discharge chest xray showed increased opacities that were
attribute to de-recruitment off the higher ventilator settings.
Would recommend monitoring respiratory status, fever curve
(currently afebrile) and ventilator requirements and would
re-image or consider antibiotics if his clinical status changes.
Plan to wean ventilator as tolerated.
.
# DMII: On oral hypoglycemics at home. On insulin SS in house.
He was started on tube feeds which were at goal at discharge.
Home metformin and glipizide were held- would restart at time
of discharge to home.
.
# HTN: On diltiazem at home (ER). He was started on lisinopril
which was at 40mg. he initially required IV hydral, which was
transitioned to amlodipine 10mg daily.
.
# CHF/Venous stasis: On furosemide. Chronic venous stasis
changes. EF 50-55% this admission, echo showed pulmonary HTN. He
was diuresed, ultimately put on a standing dose of [**Hospital1 **] Lasix to
remain euvolemic. Lytes were checked and K was replaced
aggressively. He was on furosemide 40mg daily at discharge.
Would recommend checking [**Hospital1 **] electrolytes and replete as
necessary. Goal for diuresis has been 500 cc negative daily
following in/outs.
.
# Glaucoma: Legally blind due to acute angle glaucoma, also with
bilateral cataracts. Continued home eye drops.
.
# Anemia: Unclear baseline. MCV normal. Will monitor. No signs
of bleeding, Hct stable.

admitted with pneumonia and required IV antibiotics. These will
be continued at rehab. Due to respiratory distress, you were
intubated and placed on a ventilator ("life support") until your
lungs fully recovered. You continued to show improvement but
will benefit from a longer weaning from the ventilator, thus a
trachestomy tube was placed. This will be removed when you are
fully able to breathe on your own.
A peg tube (feeding tube through your stomach) was also placed
to facilitate feeding until you are able to eat fully.
You will need to continue the IV antibiotics for another week.
The following changes were made to your medications.
STARTED Albuterol inhaler 6 puffs prn SOB
STARTED acyclovir 400mg Q12
STARTED amlodipine 10mg daily for hypertension
STARTED Docusate sodium for constipation
STARTED Heparin subcutaneous TID
STARTED ipratropium bromide inhaler
STARTED lansoprazole for reflux
STARTED lorazepam for anxiety
STARTED lisinopril for hypertension
STARTED lactulose for constipation
STARTED oxycodone for pain related to your tracheostomy
STARTED Vancomycin (IV antibiotic) for your pneumonia, this will
complete on [**9-4**] for total 14 day course.
STARTED insulin coverage
INCREASED furosemide/lasix dose to 40mg daily
INCREASED citalopram 30mg daily
STOPPED glipizide
STOPPED omeprazole
STOPPED diltiazem
STOPPED metformin
STOPPED trazodone
STOPPED compazine
STOPPED famciclovir
Followup Instructions:
You will need to follow up with your primary care doctor when
you are discharged from rehab.

Brief Hospital Course:
1. CHF exacerbation: On arrival in the ED, her O2 sats was 75%
on RA, BP 128/78 (which increased to 180/68), 68, and RR 12
(increased to 24). She was placed on BiPap with increase in O2
sat to 91%. CXR indicative of pulmonary edema. Received total of
120 mg IV Lasix with good diuresis, nebs prn, ceftriaxone 1 g
IV. When her BP increased to 180s, she was begun on a nitro gtt
and also received hydralazine 10 mg IV x1. Her bp later dropped
to 80/40, and her nitro was turned off with good BP response.
She was also noted to have non specific lateral ST segment
depression on EKG, with serial negative cardiac enzymes. Pt
maintained on lasix 80 mg po QD with decent response (~1L net
neg per day). Did require a few doses of IV lasix 80 mg to
maintain this urine output. She was also placed on lopressor
and her dose was titrated up to 25mg po TID. Her heart rate is
in the 60's and she likely has some baseline SA dysfunction
based on her age (i.e. sclerosis), but the further rate control
should help her diastolic filling in addition. This CHF exac
likely [**3-12**] lingular PNA, pt recieving ceftriaxone and
azithromycin for community acquired pneumonia. Clinda was added
to cover for possible aspiration. Will d/c for total of 10 day
course of antibiotics. On the 8th hospital day, her antibiotics
were changed from IV ceftriaxone and azithromycin to PO
levaquin. The patient now denies SOB, orthopnea or cough. She
is able to ambulate with help. She may need 1-2 L O2 by NC at
[**Hospital3 **] to keep her O2 sat betwwen 90-93%.
2. ST changes: Evaluated by cards in ED. Liekly demand
ischemia, with ST depressions transiently. TTE with no wall
motion abnormalities. Patient was placed on BB for both
decreased myocardial demand and for decreased inotropy and
chronotropy with regard to diastolic dysfunction. No further
risk stratification was done to the patient since no
intervention would be done in the case of abdnormal result.
3. DVT: Dx'd [**5-13**]. Pt was supratherapeutic with an INR >8sec
on admission. Coumadin was held until [**10-29**] when re-institued.
She takes 6mg Tuesdays and Fridays, and 4mg the rest of the
weekdays. Her coumadin will be managed at [**Hospital3 2558**]. The
coumadin clinic was made aware of this.
4. Anemia: Pt is iron deficient. She will be discharged with
oral ferrous gluconate. She recieved no blood transfusions.
Her pending iron studies will be followed up by Dr.[**Last Name (STitle) 665**].
5. Fall: The patient fell from a mechanical fall with no LOC.
She had a negative head CT.
6. Pul Hypertension: The patient has a chart history of OSA.
She has severe pulmonary arterial hypertension consistent either
with OSA or chronic PE. She is anticoagulated for prevention of
PE, and our pretest probability for PE while being
anticoagulated is low such that she does not require [**Location (un) **]
placement. She may need a sleep study to determine if she has
OSA.

Chief Complaint:
status epilepticus
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
none
History of Present Illness:
HPI; 64 yo LHM with hx L MCA hemorrhagic stroke in [**2158**] with
subsequent seizure disorder (Status epilepticus in [**Month (only) 205**] and fall
of [**2168**] with full return to baseline, but event [**12-31**] lasting 30
minutes at [**Hospital6 33**] with subsequent poor functional
status), and multiple recent admissions to [**Hospital1 18**]. He was
transferred from [**Hospital 38**] Rehab to [**Hospital1 18**] [**2170-2-22**] for evaluation
of generally depressed mental status and concern for possible
sub-clinical epileptic events vs. oversedation from his AEDs and
was admitted for long-term monitoring. At time of initial
presentation ([**2-22**]) his AEDs included VPA 1500 mg q12h and
Carbatrol 300 mg TID. Prior AEDs include PHT, keppra, and
lamictal (although full details unknown). EEG [**2-22**] showed
encephalopathy without epileptiform features. EEG [**2-24**] showed a
single seizure lasting 90 seconds with rhythmic epileptiform
discharges in left temporal region without video correlate,
presumed to be complex partial seizure. MRI brain [**2-26**] showed
multiple chronic infarcts and microvascular disease, and a small
right parietal subdual collection. CSF, thyroid studies, and
RPR
were normal. CBZ-10,11-epoxide level was elevated and depakote
was subsequently discontinued and he was started on zonisamide.
He was discharged [**3-9**] to rehab facility on zonisamide 300 mg
qhs
and carbamazepine 300 mg tid but returned the following day,
[**3-10**]
s/p fall at [**Hospital1 1501**]. Circumstances surrounding the fall were
unclear
and he was unable to provide a reliable history. CT head showed
5 mm [**Initials (NamePattern4) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern4) **] and 4 mm extra-axial hematoma and R parafalcine
blood.
He was discharged [**3-15**] with no evidence of seizures during
hospital course and returned [**3-22**] for increasing agitation,
reported to be "urinating in the lobby, going into patients
rooms, and difficult to re-direct" as per his most recent
admission note.
Today while at his nursing home, he was noted to be found
unresponsive, and then had a witnessed GTC seizure lasting
possibly one hour. Unfortunately, details of this event are
rather limited. He initially presented to [**Hospital3 934**]
hospital where he was noted to be "actively seizing with
generalized shaking." VS were T 102.4, BP 185/76 RR 28 glucose
187. He received 5 ml valium, 2 mg ativan, and 1g PHT which
stopped the seiuzre. He later was intubated after receiving
etomidate and succynlcholine at 4:30 PM. His examination prior
to transfer was notable for sluggish pupils and "unresponsive to
painful stimuli."
Upon arrival in ED here, T 100.8 (rectal), P 91, BP 170/76 RR
16,
sat 100% on vent. He has received CTX, vanc, acyclovir, and
dexamethasone. CT head showed R 4mm SDH and R subdural hygroma.
ROS unobtainable.
Past Medical History:
1. L. MCA territory hemorrhagic stroke in [**2158**]. Known
hypertensive at the time, not on medications. Records suggest
that temporal and occipital lobes were most-affected. Residual
moderate aphasia and mild R. hemiparesis.
2. GTCS since this stroke, beginning 2-3y after hemorrhage.
Seizures were self limited, lasting 1-2 minutes, and occurred
2-4x per year. In [**June 2169**], had an hour-long episode of status
epilepticus. Two subsequent episodes of status, no self-limited
seizures since that time. Refractory to multiple medications -
previously on Keppra, Lamictal, and Dilantin (height of doses
unknown), currently Carbatrol and Depakote.
3. Coronary artery disease, CABG x 3 vessels in [**4-29**]. Wife

Imaging:
MRI [**4-1**]
FINDINGS: There is a small focus of hyperintensity in the right
side of the
pons on diffusion images, best visualized on image 8, series
702. Subtle
hypointensity is also seen on ADC map in this area. Although
this could
represent an acute infarct, the appearances are unusual and this
could be an
artifact as well. If there is a persistent clinical concern for
a brain stem
infarct, a repeat study could help.
There is a chronic-appearing subdural hematoma seen in the right
frontoparietal region with a maximum width of approximately 8
mm. There is
focus of edema is seen in the right frontal lobe with a
well-defined area of
late subacute blood products. This area of blood products were
seen on the CT
of [**2170-3-11**]. No abnormal enhancement is identified in this
region. Given
that the edema has slightly increased compared to the prior CT,
this could
likely be due to post-seizure edema in this location. Moderate
changes of
small vessel disease and chronic left basal ganglia and left
occipital lobe
infarct with blood products are seen. These chronic infarcts are
unchanged
from prior study. Following gadolinium, no abnormal parenchymal,
vascular or
meningeal enhancement is seen.
IMPRESSION:
1. Small area of late subacute blood products in the right
frontal lobe with
surrounding edema. Although the blood products were seen on the
previous CT
of [**2170-3-11**]. The surrounding edema is slightly more prominent
accounting for
differences in slice selection. This could presumably be
post-seizure, edema.
No abnormal enhancement is seen in this location.
2. Subtle signal abnormality within the right side of the pons
on diffusion
images could represent a small acute infarct but the appearance
is more
suggestive of an artifact. If there is continued concern, a
repeat diffusion
image can help.
3. Subacute chronic-appearing right-sided subdural hematoma
without
significant midline shift.
4. Chronic left occipital and left basal ganglia infarcts.
5. No abnormal enhancement.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. [**Known lastname 86382**] is a 64 yo LHM with hx L MCA hemorrhagic stroke in
[**2158**] with subsequent seizure disorder including multiple
episodes of status epilepticus in the past,
presenting after status epilepticus, resolved after receiving 5
mg valium, 2 mg ativan, and 1 g PHT. He is intubated, but his
examination off sedation appears nonfocal. While he has had
prolonged seizures in the past, likely secondary to his known
structural lesion (prior stroke), his fever (T 102.4 at arrival
to OSH) may be concerning for infectious precipitant of this
event.
Hospital Course:
#Neuro: Mr. [**Known lastname 86382**] was admitted for status epilepticus, for
which he initially received 5mg Valium, 2mg Ativan and 1 gram
dilantin, and was intubated for airway protection. He was
febrile initially, but had a normal LP. His carbemazepine was
kept at the same dose. His level on admission was 3.7, however
repeat trough was 9.2 on his usual dose of medication, raising
the question of whether he may have missed a dose prior to
admission. His Zonegran was increased from 300mg to 400mg. He
underwent an MRI with and without contrast, which showed a right
frontal hemorrhage and right sided subdural hematoma, which had
been observed on prior imaging. He had no new lesions to
account for his increased seizure activity.
#Resp: The patient was intubated for airway protection in the
emergency department. He was successfully extubated on [**4-1**].
#CV: The patient was noted to have a slightly elevated troponin
of 0.06 on admission, but with a normal CK-MB. This quickly
decreased to 0.02, and was thought to be a slight troponin leak
in the context of prolonged seizure activity.
#ID: He was febrile on admission, and was initially started on
empiric antibiotic coverage with vancomycin, ceftriaxone and
acyclovir. He underwent a lumbar puncture which had 1WBC,
2RBCs, elevated protein of 52, and a glucose of 90. He had a
negative U/A and chest x-ray. Antibiotics were discontinued.
The patient did well and was brought out to the floor. He did
not have any new events on EEG. He was determined to be ready
for discharge.

Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted to the hospital for an extended seizure. It
is not clear how long the seizure lasted. You had recieved a
lot of anti-seizure medication and you were intubated to protect
your airway. As you had a fever there was a concern that you
were infected and you were started on empiric antibiotics. You
had a normal infectious workup, a normal lumbar puncture, chest
xray and normal urine and blood cultures. Your MRI showed the
previous findings of the right frontal hemorrhage and right
sided subdural hematoma. You were extubated without
complication and brought to the floor where you did well with no
further seizures. To prevent further seizures your Zonegran was
increased to 400mg daily. You did not have any further seizures
Medications were changed as follows:
Zonegran increased to 400mg qhs
Please make all follow up appointments. Please take all

Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
none
History of Present Illness:
72 M on C10D23 of FU/leucovorin for rectal CA presents with
throat pain and fever, found to have parapharyngeal phlegmon
commpressing the airway. Pt reports 4 days of right sided chest
wall pain, fever that began today to 102 at home. Denies
SOB/cough/abdpain/dysuria. Was seen earlier on day of admission
for chest pain which was noted to be reproducible on palpation
and onset while pt doing yardwork. c/o sore throat, sensation of
something stuck in his throat. He has been able to drink, but it
hurts. Pt thought he could palpate a lump on the left side of
his neck beneath the mandible, but this area was not paniful to
him on external palpation. Currently says throat when swallowing
is [**8-13**] pain. No back pain. He denies trauma, previous head and
neck surgery or recent dental work. He notes that he needs some
dental work performed, but can not because of the chemo. He

Brief Hospital Course:
72 y/o M undergoing chemo for rectal CA (not currently
neutropenic) p/w throat pain and fever found with parapharyngeal
phlegmon compressing airway.
.
#Sepsis - Patient presented with tachycardia and fever with
known source (paratracheal phlegmon). Was treated with 2L IVF
in ED, and started on vanc/zosyn. On arrival to [**Hospital Unit Name 153**] his
tachycardia/fever had resolved. He was not hypotensive. Given
desire to also provide coverage for possible ESBL, antibiotics
were changed to vanc/[**Last Name (un) 2830**]. The patient remained hemodynamically
stable overnight, and did not require pressors. His infection
was treated as below.
.
#Paratracheal phlegmon- CT revealed L parapharyngeal phlegmon
without a drainable collection. His airway was patent, but left
AE fold edematous. Was c/f airway protection requiring ICU
admission, as well as concern that at some point the
inflammation could liquify. He was seen by ENT, and started on
IV steroids with decadron 10mg IV Q8H x3 doses. He was covered
with broad spectrum antibiotics (vanc/meropenem for ESBL
coverage). He was monitored closely for evidence of stridor,
and also on continuous O2 monitoring. The following morning,
steroids were stopped. Plan was for 14 day course of
antibiotics, with IV abx for first 48-72 hours. Can likely be
transitioned to augmentin to complete antibiotics course. He was
initially kept NPO, then started on regular diet on hospital day
2. Monospot was negative. Blood cultures are negative at the
time of discharge. ENT did not feel patient needed repeat
imaging, unless clinical course changed. He should follow-up
with Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) **] in [**1-6**] weeks after abx course completed. (The
patient was called and given a phone number to call as this was
not done prior to discharge.) Pain was controlled with
acetaminophen and oxycodone as needed initially but at discharge
he did not require any pain medications.
.
#Hyponatremia - Na initially 130, likely secondary to
hypovolemia. Hyponatremia resolved after 2L of fluid.
Hypovolemia was likely secondary to decreased PO intake in
setting of sore throat, and also from insensible losses in
setting of sepsis. Of note, his FeNA (checked in context of
initial decreased urine output) was 0.55%, c/w prerenal
etiology.
.
#Nutrition - Patient was initially kept NPO. His diet was
advanced the following morning without incident.
.
#Chest pain - Patient c/o 4 days of chest pain after working in
the yard. Pain was reproducible with palpation, and worse with
movement. It was most consistent with a musculoskeletal
etiology. A cardiac etiology was unlikely; EKG was without signs
of ischemia and unchanged from prior. Portable CXR showed
bibasilar atelectasis and no pneumonia. Formal PA/lateral CXR
showed no infiltrate. Rib films showed no signs of fracture.
His pain improved with warm compresses.
.
#Metastatic rectal cancer - On admission, patient not
neutropenic although he is immunosuppressed. Noted to have bony
metastases on previous MRI to lumbar, sacral, and cervical
spine. Day of admission was C10D23 of FULFOX. His oncologist
was contact[**Name (NI) **] during this hospitalization. He will follow up
with his oncologist as previously scheduled.

pre-sacral pelvic collection has increased in size and
demonstrates increased rim enhancement, concerning for
developing abscess. Hyperemic mesentery and omental inflammatory
changes, likely worsened since the prior study. Focal collection
previously identified in the mid-pelvis appears largely
unchanged. Redemonstration of bowel wall abnormalities c/w
Crohn's flare, largely stable.

The patient was transferred to [**Hospital Ward Name 1950**] 5 she was made NPO with
IVF/Foley/IVMeds/ABX. She was febrile to 102.9 with increased
pain. Her pain medication was changed from morphine to dilaudid
with good effect. The patient also had a repeat CT scan showing
a fluid collection in her abdomen. She was taken to IR to have a
drain place. Scant thick pus aspirated and cultured.
.
A PICC line was placed and the patient was started on TPN with
bowel rest. She continued to spike temps to 103.0. Multiple
fever workups were done including BCX, UCX and CXR all negative
for infection. She had multiple CT scans done indicating
abcesses. She was taken to IR for Drain placement, 2 drains
placed for a total of 4 drains.
.
Despite the drain placements the patient continued to spike
temps to 104.6 on HD 19 requiring a cooling blanket. She was
than pre-op'd and taken to the OR for ex-lap, washout and drain
placement.
.
She returned to the floor. She was maintained as NPO, TPN was
continued along with a PCA, IVF, ABX. Infectious disease was
also consulted to recommend treatment. POD 1 the patient was
afebrile. However she continued to spike daily fevers there on
out. ID continued to follow the patient adjust antibiotics as
needed.
.
The patient c/o of severe pain and the pain service was
consulted. She was started on a fentynal patch and PO dilaudid
with good effect. At discharge the patient no longer needed the
fentynal patch, her pain was well controlled with dilaudid. Her
TPN was cycled and with the return of bowel function and flatus
her diet was advanced from sips to regular. Her TPN was d/c'd
once she tolerated regular diet.
All of her drains were d/c'd prior to d/c. The patient was
encouraged to have ensure with all meals. All D/C paperwork was
reviewed with the patient and all questions answered. She will
follow up with Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 1120**] in [**11-20**] weeks.

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This is a 60 year old right
handed woman with a past medical history of coronary artery
disease, hypertension, history of aneurysm clip seven years
ago at [**Hospital6 1129**], who at 4:00 p.m. on
the day of admission had sudden onset vertigo, right facial
weakness, and dysarthria. The week prior she had had one
minute episodes of a "dizzy" sensation while she was sitting
and watching television and noted some heaviness in the left
leg only. Transport services [**Location (un) **] reported that the
patient had had headache in the right temporal region, now
resolved per the patient. Systolic blood pressure was in the
160s on arrival, heart rate in the 80s, and she is in sinus
rhythm. Temperature at the outside hospital was 96.1.
AccuChek was 143. Daughter-in-law and son report very severe
right facial droop and dysarthria that is very difficult to
understand her. It improved in the Emergency Department at
the outside hospital, but she is not still at baseline. The
patient also reports "dizziness".
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY:
1. Hypertension, reportedly very high.
2. Coronary artery disease, status post coronary artery
bypass grafting.
3. History of hypercholesterolemia.
4. History of transient ischemic attack with speech slurring
one year ago and hot flashes.
5. Depression after brain aneurysm.
6. Gastrointestinal, loose stools, dark stools, incontinence
of urine and feces with coughing.
7. Family also reports anemia.
8. Suspect gastrointestinal problems but she has not been
scoped. There are no liver, kidney, cancer history and no
history of diabetes mellitus.
PAST SURGICAL HISTORY:
1. Fracture of the arm, status post pin in [**2148-2-1**],
pins out three days prior to admission.
2. Aneurysm clip at [**Hospital6 1129**] in [**2141**],
incidental finding.

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: On admission, vital signs revealed
temperature 96.1, heart rate 92, blood pressure 140/110,
respiratory rate 18, oxygen saturation 92% in room air.
Head, eyes, ears, nose and throat examination - sclera clear.
Mucous membranes are moist although dry around the mouth.
Neck - no bruits. The heart is regular rate and rhythm.
Chest - Lungs clear to auscultation bilaterally anteriorly.
The abdomen is obese, soft. Extremities no edema
bilaterally. Neurologic examination - mental status - alert
and oriented. There is dysarthria although she follows
commands and speech is fluent. Extraocular movements are
impaired. Upgaze, right more than left. She looks to the
right and left. Right eye did not look laterally. Adduction
impaired. Right pupil 4.0 millimeters, left pupil is 6.0
millimeters. Ptosis in the right eye, torsional upbeating
nystagmus in primary gaze. Right facial weakness. Head
turning intact bilaterally. Shoulder shrug intact
bilaterally. Decreased sensation in right V1 through V3.
There is tongue midline but slightly deviated to the left.
Hearing is intact bilaterally to finger rub. Over the course
of hospitalization, the nystagmus has improved significantly
as well as the facial droop although she does continue to
have somewhat of a facial droop. Motor - bilateral grasp is
[**6-5**]. Biceps [**6-5**]. Tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius [**6-5**].
The patient did continue to have full strength throughout.
Sensation intact bilaterally to light touch throughout.
Coordination - fine finger movements intact bilaterally in
hands. She moves very ataxic on initial examination,
however, this improved significantly and she has much less
ataxia on [**2148-6-3**]. Reflexes are symmetric. Both toes are
upgoing.
LABORATORY DATA: On [**2148-6-3**], white blood count 10.3,
hematocrit 30.7, and she was transfused throughout the
hospital course to attempt to keep the hematocrit above 30.0.
However, stool guaiac was negative. Platelet count was
269,000. INR on [**2148-6-3**], was 1.4. Partial thromboplastin
time was 63.8. Prothrombin time was 14.5. Fibrinogen was
294. Reticulocyte count 1.9. Protein B 121 which is normal.
Urinalysis on [**2148-5-28**], was positive. Repeat urinalysis
after treatment on [**2148-6-3**], is now negative. Glucose 120,
blood urea nitrogen 10, creatinine 0.7, sodium 140, potassium
4.4, chloride 107, bicarbonate 27 on [**2148-6-3**]. ALT 19, AST
15, LDH 154, alkaline phosphatase 58, amylase 11, total
bilirubin 0.5. She ruled out for myocardial infarction by
enzymes twice. Lipase 17. Calcium 8.9, phosphate 4.3,
magnesium 2.4. Iron 34, total cholesterol 178, TIBC 224,
Vitamin B12 315, folate 12.7, haptoglobin 238, ferritin 41,
transferrin 172. Hemoglobin A1C 6.1. Triglycerides 103, HDL
54, LDL 103, homocysteine 5.9. TSH 0.77. Urine culture was
growing Klebsiella oxytoca and Enterococcus species, both of
which are pansensitive. Sputum culture was no growth.
Factor [**Initials (NamePattern4) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern4) 5244**] is pending. Protein S 68 which is within
normal range. Angiocardiolipin antibodies IgG and IgM normal
at 3.0 and 3.1, respectively. Lipoprotein A is high at 60 on
[**2148-5-24**].
Initial magnetic resonance scan of the head showed bilateral
pica infarcts, also an aneurysm clip causing loss of signal,
inability to evaluate in distal right internal carotid artery
M1 and A1 segments. Angiogram on [**2148-5-23**], showed multiple
areas of thrombosis including right vertebral artery
thrombosis, left pica thrombosis, stenosis at the origin of
the right anterior inferior cerebellar artery as well as
stenosis of the left vertebral artery in both its proximal
segment above the level of C5 vertebral body as well as the
level of C1 vertebral body, approximately 50%, as well as
distal intracranial left vertebral artery stenosis greater
than 60% but with a patent basilar artery and collateral flow
as described in the results. Serial head CT proved stable.
There is hypoattenuation in the cerebellar cortex consistent
with pica infarction bilaterally. There is some surrounding
edema, however, no midline shift or evidence of tonsillar
herniation. There was some distortion of the fourth
ventricle and flattening of the quadrigeminal plate cistern
which was unchanged as well as a hypodensity in the left
basal ganglia consistent with an old infarct. There was
never any herniation or change in the CT. CT of the abdomen
and pelvis on [**2148-6-1**], showed no evidence of retroperitoneal
hemorrhage. This was obtained because of the patient's
hematocrit, however, there was no retroperitoneal hemorrhage.
There was bilateral mild to moderate atelectasis in the
lungs. There was no free air and no lymphadenopathy. There
was a large left sided paraesophageal hernia. This hernia
required placement of nasogastric tube with the help of
interventional radiology initially.
Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed ejection fraction of
40%, left and right atrium normal in size, left ventricular
wall thickness normal with mild regional left ventricular
systolic dysfunction. There is a moderate size thrombus in
the left ventricle. Left ventricular wall motion
abnormalities show at the anterior apex akinetic, septal apex
akinetic, lateral apex akinetic and the apex akinetic. Right
ventricle and right ventricular chamber size and free wall
motion normal. Aortic root normal in diameter. Aortic valve
leaflets mildly thickened, no aortic regurgitation. Mitral
valve showed trivial mitral regurgitation seen. There is no
pericardial effusion.
HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was admitted, initially
transferred, and underwent angiogram revealing occluded right
vertebral artery and stenosis in the left vertebral artery in
addition to her pica infarcts bilaterally. Transthoracic
echocardiogram showed incidental clot in the heart although
the infarcts were thought to be due to artery-artery emboli
from the vertebrals. Hypercoagulable workup was originally
sent because initially the clot in the heart was found,
though likely this clot formed because of the akinetic apex.
The hypercoagulable workup revealed elevated lipoprotein A.
This will be repeated this week and will be treated with
Niacin should it still be high. The patient was started on
Heparin on the day of admission especially given this clot in
the heart and she was continued on Labetalol drip to control
her blood pressure to keep it in the systolic range of 120 to
160.
On [**2148-5-26**], the day after admission, the patient was
transiently transferred to the floor, however, she became
agitated. She self discontinued her femoral line which was
her only access and later had some episode of desaturating to
the mid 80s. The repeat head CT showed signs of cerebellar
edema, but no herniation. She was transferred back to the
Intensive Care Unit. She did remain stable in the Intensive
Care Unit and was started on Coumadin initially, however, was
requiring frequent suctioning for her sputum. Feeding tube
was placed and she was started on tube feeds. She did
become somnolent around the date of [**2148-5-29**], however, she
was found at that time to have a urinary tract infection and
was started on Levaquin. On [**2148-6-3**], was day six of the
Levaquin.
The patient was transfused for her anemia. Anemia workup was
sent and her stool guaiac was negative. Later on that
evening, she desaturated while being suctioned. She had
transient respiratory arrest and became very bradycardic.
Code Blue was called. Chest compressions were given for
about one minute when the patient became asystolic and the
patient was intubated.
At the time of the code, the patient was at her baseline
neurologic status and then after intubation she was moving
all four extremities. Head CT at that time was unchanged.
Heparin drip was temporarily stopped and a central line was
placed. The patient was placed on Propofol at that time.
The following day the patient was taken off the Propofol and
she did awaken and was able to follow commands well. She was
intubated for the next couple of days for stabilization of
her respiratory status and was extubated on [**2148-6-1**], and did
well after that. By [**2148-6-3**], the frequency of suctioning
decreased and the patient was on nasal cannula.
Her issues neurologically, the patient suffered bilateral
pica strokes. She is on Lipitor for future stroke prevention
and also continues on Heparin drip until she has a
therapeutic INR on her Coumadin. As for the elevated
lipoprotein A, that will be repeated and then Niacin will be
started if it does indeed remain elevated.
Respiratory wise, she has been extubated and is stable,
status post extubation. It is unclear as to whether some of
her somnolence may have been due to CO2 narcosis and so today
she has been maintaining oxygen saturation in the low to mid
90s and has become more awake, is doing well on oxygen by
nasal cannula.
Cardiovascularly, she is now on Metoprolol, Enalapril and
p.r.n. Hydralazine for her blood pressure and is off the
Labetalol drip.
Gastrointestinal - She has a large hiatal hernia and
nasogastric tubes are very difficult to place. She will
receive a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube tomorrow
[**2148-6-4**], as she cannot swallow, has failed her swallowing
evaluation and likely will not be able to swallow for some
time.
Infectious disease - She ahs remained afebrile throughout her
hospital course. She was found to have a urinary tract
infection on [**2148-5-29**], and is now on day six of the Levaquin.
This will likely be continued for seven days and stopped.
Hematologically, her hematocrit remained stable. Currently
she is being transfused for hematocrit less than 30.0. She
has not had any retroperitoneal bleed and no guaiac positive
stools.
Renally, she is stable and there are no issues.
Endocrine wise, she does have evidence of diabetes mellitus
with a hemoglobin A1C of 6.0. She is on four times a day
fingerstick and her regular insulin sliding scale. She will
need outpatient follow-up for this.
Code Status - Her code status has been full code.
She has improved as far as having no further double vision,
less vertigo and less dysarthria at this point than on
admission. She is being currently stabilized for transfer to
the floor at some point in the very near future.
The oncoming [**Male First Name (un) 1573**] resident will dictate the rest of the
hospital course, discharge instructions, medications and
follow-up.

Attending:[**First Name3 (LF) 2712**]
Chief Complaint:
N/V/D, abdominal pain
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
-central venous line, intubation
-CPR times 2
History of Present Illness:
This is an 83 year old female with PMH of HTN, chronic kidney
injury with baseline Cr=1.7-2, hyperlipidemia, hypothyroidism,
and osteoporosis presenting with 3-4 days of N/V/D and abdominal
pain. She was reportedly caring for her disabled brother in his
70s who also has gastroenteritis. She was found by EMS earlier
today with SBP in the 70s and was reportedly very dry and unable
to take POs. She reported no fevers or chills, but did endorse
non-bloody emesis and diarrhea.
.
In the ED, initial VS were not recorded, but she was reportedly
hypotensive to the 70s which responded to systolic in the 100s
after 4L of IVFs. Her WBC count was 14.1 and her initial
lactate was 5 which trended down to 2.1 after fluid
resuscitation. She was empirically treated with Cipro and
Flagyl. A right IJ central line was placed for the initial
resuscitation. CXR showed mild pulmonary vascular congestion.
SVO2=48 and her CVP was [**10-2**] after 3L of IVFs. Given the
concern for cardiogenic shock, a bedside ECHO was attempted by
the ED which showed a dilated right ventricle. She was guaiac
negative and the concern for PE was high given these findings so
she was empirically started on a heparin drip since her Cr=1.7
and the goal was to avoid a dye load for a CTA. Cardiology
fellow was consulted for bedside ECHO, but had poor windows and
during ECHO at around 12:30AM the patient had an acute change in
mental status complaining of sudden onset abdominal pain and
reported feeling as though she was going to die. She then
vagaled down to a HR in the 30s and dropped her blood pressures,
but reportedly did not lose consciousness. She was started on
dopamine which was soon maxed out and Levophed was added as
well. She was then intubated, given 4.5 grams of Zosyn, and a
CTA torso was obtained. No PE was seen, but diffuse bowel wall
edema was noted and surgery was consulted for this. Of note,
she had several failed attempts at a right femoral and left
radial A-lines on heparin with a lot of bleeding at the leg
site. Protamine was given to reverse the heparin. Transfer VS:
BP=155/120, HR=137, RR=22, 100% on vent of FiO2 95%, PEEP 5 on
dopa of 10 and levophed alone at 0.3 mcg.
.
On arrival to the MICU, patient was intubated/sedated. Social
work was consulted in the ED. She is the sole caretaker for her
younger 73 year old disabled brother who also has
gastroenteritis and is also in the ED. She has no other family.

Occupation: worked as a researcher in radiation therapy at the
VA before she retired at 48 after she was diagnosed with
endometrial cancer. No smoking. No alcohol.
Family History:
Non-contributory
Physical Exam:
General: Intubated, sedated
HEENT: Sclera anicteric, dry MM, PERRL but sluggish
Neck: supple
CV: Tachycardic
Lungs: Clear to auscultation anteriorly
Abdomen: soft, non-distended, bowel sounds present
GU: Foley
Ext: warm, no clubbing or edema, massive right thigh hematoma
Neuro: intubated/sedated
Pertinent Results:
CTA abdomen/pelvis:
1. Active arterial extravasation in the right proximal medial
thigh, likely related to recent arterial puncture.
2. Right portal vein thrombus with hypoenhancement of the right
lobe of the liver. Differential diagnosis includes low-flow
state, hypercoagulability, and tumor.
3. Pericholecystic fluid, which could be secondary to recent
volume
resuscitation, but cholecystitis is also a possibility. Further
evaluation is recommended with ultrasound.
4. Heterogeneous enhancement of the right kidney, which could be
secondary to infection or low-flow state.
5. Bowel wall edema and mucosal hyperenhancement suggestive of
recent
hypoperfusion.
6. Non-acute findings: chronic-appearing severe left
hydroureteronephrosis, ascending aortic dilation, colonic
diverticulosis, mid-thoracic vertebra plana.
Brief Hospital Course:
This is an 83 year old female with PMH of HTN, chronic kidney
injury with baseline Cr=1.7-2, hyperlipidemia, hypothyroidism,
osteoporosis, and remote history of endometrial cancer and
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma presenting with 3-4 days of N/V/D and
abdominal pain with ED course complicated by PEA arrest
requiring a round of CPR.
.
She was brought to the ED for further evaluation of N/V/D and
abdominal pain. She was markedly hypovolemic and hypotensive to
the 70s which initially responded to 4L IVFs. She was given
empiric abx and thought to be in cardiogenic shock. She then
developed severe abdominal pain and change in mental status.
Shortly thereafter, she vagaled down to the 30s and dropped her
blood pressures. She was intubated and central line was place.
Two pressors were started. She received one round of CPR in the
ED with return of spontaneous circulation. Unfortunately, she
passed away after 10 minutes of CPR upon admission to the ICU
for PEA arrest.

Brief Hospital Course:
77 year-old man with history of CAD, left ventriuclar systolic
dysfunction with EF 20-25%, type II diabetes mellitus,
hypertension, anemia, history of v-tach, chronic renal
insufficiency admitted with worsening renal failure, metabolic
acidosis, undocumented fevers, and concern for UTI or pneumonia.
During his hospitalization the following problems were
addressed:
1. Worsening renal failure: the patient's baseline creatinine
was 2.2-2.4, and he presented with creatinine of 3.2.
Previously he had been discharged to rehab on n lisinopril and
lasix, and his creatinine worsened since that time. Renal
failure was likely multifactorial related to his poor cardiac
function, prerenal azotemia leading to ATN, and complicated by
ACE inbitor and lasix use, obstruction due to prostatic
hypertrophy as he was noted to have urine residuals of 350cc
when catheter was inserted, and continued periods of
hypotension. Renal service consulted. Despite efforts to
closely monitor his fluid status, to increase his blood pressure
to SBP >120 to maintain renal perfusion, to relieve obstruction
by placing a foley, and to treat his funguria aggressively, his
creatinine continued to rise. Hemodialysis was discussed at
length with the patient by both the primary medical and renal
teams. He fluctuated in his willingness to start dialysis, but
would not commit to it. He developed subtle metabolic acidosis,
K+ rose but not above the normal level, and he continued to make
urine and maintain a euvolemic fluid balance. There was no an
indication for acute initiation of hemodialysis. Creatinine
stabilized at around 4.2 by the time of discharge.
2. Funguria: the patient had a fever and a delirium. The only
source of infection identified was yeast in his urine, and it
was felt this warrented treatment. Two species of yeast were
identified; [**Female First Name (un) **] albicans and galabrate. He was treated with
a two week course of fluconazole 200mg daily. Infectious
disease service was consulted and saw no indication for
amphotericin bladder washes. They recommended continuing the
two week course of fluconazole.
3. Conjestive heart failure: With treatment for his renal
failure the patient developed acute worsening of his conjestive
heart failure. He became hypoxic and was admitted to the CCU.
There a Swan-Ganz catheter was placed for tailored diuresis. He
was diuresed and placed on afterload reduction with hydralazine.
He was transferred back to the floor on metoprolol,
hydralazine, and lasix. His renal failure continued to worsen
on this regimen, and he became hypotensive with SBP 80-90. The
metoprolol dose was reduced, the hydralazine initially held,
then restarted at a reduced dose, and lasix discontinued. His
respiratory status remained stable. He did not complain of
shortness of breath. He continued to saturate well on room air.
He did have elevated JVP suggestive of fluid overload. This
improved but did not resolve entirely by the time of discharge.
He was discharged on continued metoprolol, hydralazine, and
statin, for secondary prevention of CHF exacerbation.
4. Fevers: The patient presented initially with fevers, with
concern for UTI and pneumonia. CXR here showed a possible
pneumonia, and he was treated with levofloxacin. Additionally
he was treated with flagyl for c.diff infection. He completed
both courses. He also ruled out for influenza by nasal
aspirate. Additionally, there was concern for osteomyelitis
given his chronic left heal ulcer. X-ray; however, did not show
any signs of osteomyelitis.
5. h/o DVT: pt had a DVT diagnosed in [**12-26**]. He was continued
on anticoagulation. INR became surpratherapeutic while on
concurrent antibiotics, and coumadin was held. It remained
elevated, thought to be due to nutritional Vit K deficiency, but
eventually trended down. He should be treated for an additional
3months. Coumadin should be resumed at 2mg qHS, and held for
INR >2 (goal INR [**1-24**]).
6. Anemia: the patient has a history of anemia and guiaic
positive stools. He continued to have guiaic positive stools,
but his Hct remained stable. He had a colonoscopy in [**12-26**] that
showed benign adenomatous polyps. He should likely consider
repeat colonoscopy as part of his outpatient. He was treated
with Epogen injections, and Hct remained stable.
7. Type II diabetes mellitus: [**Last Name (un) **] services were consulted.
The patient was initially treated with a regular insulin sliding
scale. He was then on tubefeeds for about three weeks, and
lantus was added. When the tubefeeds were discontinued, hte
lantus dose was reduced. He was discharged to rehab on 26units
Lantus in the mornings, and a regular insulin sliding scale.
8. Dispo: he was discharged back to [**Hospital3 **]. His
renal failure may progress, and he may require hemodialysis at
some time in the future. For now, he continues to be euvolemic
and stable. He should be encouraged to improve his po diet to
sustain nutrition for healing of his pressure ulcers. He will
follow up with Drs. [**Last Name (STitle) **] in the primary care clinic, Dr.
[**Last Name (STitle) 1366**] in nephrology, and Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 284**] in cardiology.

with PMHx of alcohol abuse with withdrawal seizures, a SDH s/p R
craniotomy, HTN and HL who presents intubated from [**Hospital1 2519**] for confusion.
Per OSH records, patient fell the night prior to arrival on
cousin's floor and struck her head; denied LOC, but c/o left
brow pain, heaache, chipped tooth and sore R shoulder. A
preliminary head CT showed no acute intracranial abnormality
with chronic findings (old R parietal craniotomy, old R burr
hole). Labs were notable for lactate 1.2, normal chem 7, normal
CBC, normal UA, ammonia 32 (WNL). Tox negative for ethanol,
salicylates, acetominophen. The patient was intubated for
failure to oxygenate/ventilate and inability to protect airway
(sedation and confusion). CXR showed R mainstem intubation-->
pulled back 1 cm and improved L lung aeration.

MICRO
IMAGING
CXR 8.20
A feeding tube is noted with tip at the level of the gastric
antrum. ET tube is at the carina and should be repositioned.
Bilateral low lung volumes are noted with crowding of
bronchovascular markings. Cardiac silhouette is accentuated by
low lung volumes. Additionally, opacification at the left lung
base and in the retrocardiac region appears concerning for
either pleural effusion versus atelectasis, infectious process
such as pneumonia cannot be completely excluded in the correct
clinical setting.
CXR 8.21
In comparison with the study of [**7-29**], there again are lower lung
volumes. Cardiac silhouette is within upper limits of normal or
slightly
enlarged. Minimal poor definition of pulmonary vessels could
reflect slight
elevation of pulmonary venous pressure. Blunting of
costophrenic angles could
reflect small effusions or pleural thickening.
No definite pneumonia is appreciated, though in the appropriate
clinical
setting a supervening consolidation would be difficult to
exclude in lower
zones.
Brief Hospital Course:
63 yo F with PMH alcohol abuse with seizures, SDH s/p burr hole
5 years ago admitted with acute change in mental status.
# Acute Respiratory Failure: Patient arrived to the ICU
intubated for respiratory failure in settting of acute
confusional state. The patient's initial ABG was reassuring and
she was deemed able to extubate. She was extubated on the day
of arrival to the ICU and tolerated it well. Her oxygen
saturation remained in the mid to high 90s on room air. The
etiology of her respiratory was felt to be her toxic-metabolic
encephalopathy as noted below.
# Toxic-metabolic encephalopathy: The patient presented with
acute altered mental status with history of alcohol abuse and
seizures, also with history of SDH s/p craniotomy 5 years ago.
The etiology was unclear, but the differential included alcohol
withdrawal/seizure, toxic metabolic (hepatic encephalopathy),
CVA/ICH, sepsis, wernicke's encephalopathy. UA unremarkable.
Ammonia level normal. Lactic acid WNL. Drug induced possible,
home medications were difficult to clarify (the patient and her
family were poor historians). The patient showed no signs of
alcohol withdrawl and required only one dose of diazepam on the
CIWA protocol, which was mostly given for insomnia. She was
given thiamine. Neurology was consulted and they performed an
EEG, which showed no epileptiform activity. The day of
discharge, she developed a headache, but a repeat head CT was
normal, and she felt better after Tylenol and ibuprofen so was
discharged to follow-up as an outpatient.
# Chronic cough: the pt had a non-productive cough during your
admission, which has been present for several years, according
to the patient. She had no fevers, chills, oxygen requirement
or leukocytosis, so she was not treated for a pneumonia, and she
felt this was at her baseline. I suspect she may have COPD due
to second hand smoke exposure (ex-husband smoked for 25 years
with her). She should have outpatient PFTs done to further
evaluate this.
# Coordination of care: I attempted to speak with the patient's
PCP and Neurologist, but neither were available by phone on the
day of discharge. They will be sent a copy of this summary.
# Inactive issues: The patient was continued on her home
amitriptyline, fluoxetine, furosemide, gabapentin, topiramate,
and methocarbamol.

Discharge Instructions:
You developed confusion at home, fell and struck your head,
suffering a headache, chipped tooth and sore R shoulder. You
became progressively more confused until you were taken to
[**Hospital1 18**]-[**Hospital1 **] where your evaluation included a head CT, which was
unchanged from your prior (not normal due to your history of
subdural hemorrhage ~5 yrs ago with old R parietal craniotomy,
old R burr hole). Lab testing was unremarkable. You were
intubated (placed on a breathing machine) because your mental
status was so poor and you could not protect your airway and you
were transferred to [**Hospital1 18**]-[**Location (un) 86**]. Here you were quickly
extubated (taken off the breathing machine) and you
spontaneously improved. The Neurology consult team saw you and
could not explain what had happened. You developed a headache
on the day of discharge, but a repeat head CT was normal, and
you felt better after Tylenol and ibuprofen so were discharged
to follow-up as an outpatient.
Followup Instructions:
Primary Care
Please follow-up with your primary care doctor within the next

History of Present Illness:
Ms. [**Known lastname **] is 42 yo woman with PMH significant for morbid obesity
with gastric bypass 3 years ago as well as HTN and
hyperlipidemia, who presents with acute leukemia.
.
Ms. [**Known lastname **] describes that she has been feeling unwell for the
past four weeks; she describes being in her normal state of
health before this. Four weeks ago she started developing pain
in her thighs that she describes as an achy, bony pain, with no
associated trauma or swelling. She saw her PCP who [**Name9 (PRE) 78036**]
increased ESR, decreased platelets and abnormal electrolytes and
recommended followup with Rheumatology. She was seen by a
Rheumatologist who put her on a 10 day taper of Prednisone,
starting at 40 mg daily. Her pain did not improve with this
regimen and instead spread to her arms and lower back. She
visited the [**Hospital1 1474**] ED where she was discharged with Percocet
and instructions to followup with her rheumatologist. At a
subsequent Rheumatology visit her platelets were further
decreased. She was sent back to her PCP who referred her to
hematology for thrombocytopenia. Around this time (5 days prior
to admission) she also started to notice a L sided chest pain,
worse with taking deep breaths. She was unable to make an
appointment with hematology and so yesterday morning went to the
[**Hospital6 33**] ED. She denies fever, chills, difficulty
breathing, diarrhea or any other symptoms over the past few
weeks.
.
In the ED at [**Hospital3 **], she was found to have a CBC
significant for WBC 15.0 with 7% bands, 2% atypical lymphocytes.
Also ESR 113, LDH of 1600, indicating acute leukemia; she was
treated with allopurinol.
.
Chest CT showed multiple bilateral prominent axillary lymph
nodes and air trapping, ground glass opacities and
consolidations in the L lung. with largest in L axilla measuring
1.1 cm. She was evaluated by Infectious Disease who were
concerned for atypical PNA v. viral illness and gave her
Levaquin. She transiently desated to 86% on RA while walking to
the bathroom and was placed on nasal cannula. She was given
Percocet and Toradol for her leg pain. Vitals on transfer were
98.5 103 90/58 98% 2L.
.
On the floor, she is comfortable and not in pain. She is anxious
to initate diagnosis and possible treatment.

BONE MARROW [**2111-4-16**]:
PATHOLOGY:
BONE MARROW WITH EXTENSIVE INVOLVEMENT BY ACUTE MONOCYTIC
LEUKEMIA (FAB M5).
CYTOGENETICS
Karyotype:
54,XX,+X,+1,[**Doctor Last Name **](1)t(1;16)(q11;p11),+3,+4,+8,+14,+20,+21[20]
20/20 cells show the hyperdiploid karyotype described
.
BONE MARROW [**2111-5-3**]:
Markedly hypocellular marrow with features consistent with
myeloablative chemotherapy effect
.
BONE MARROW [**2111-5-8**]
PATHOLOGY
Variably cellular, overall hypocellular bone marrow with
megakaryocytic clustering, left-shifted myelopoiesis and
increased blasts (see note).
.
Note: Circulating blasts are seen in the peripheral blood (7%).
The aspirate is paucispicular, however increased blasts and
monocytic precursors are noted. The core biopsy is variably
cellular with trilineage hematopoiesis, megakaryocytic
clustering and left shifted myelopoiesis. By immunostaining CD34
immunoreactive blasts are increased (~10% of cellularity),
however are present singly without clusters. CD117 highlights
early myeloid precursors in clusters comprising 30% of marrow
cellularity. Overall, the morphologic differential includes
regenerating marrow versus residual disease and correlation with
cytogenetic findings is recommended
.
CYTOGENETICS
KARYOTYPE: 46,XX[20]
.
INTERPRETATION:
This karyotype is characteristic of a chromosomally normal
female.

IMAGING:
=================
[**4-16**] ECHO: The left atrium and right atrium are normal in cavity
size. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and
regional/global systolic function are normal (LVEF >55%). Right
ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. The
diameters of aorta at the sinus, ascending and arch levels are
normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal
with good leaflet excursion and no aortic stenosis or aortic
regurgitation. The mitral valve appears structurally normal with
trivial mitral regurgitation. There is no mitral valve prolapse.
The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal.
There is a trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion.
.
IMPRESSION: Normal global and regional biventricular systolic
function. No pulmonary hypertension or clinically-significant
valvular disease seen.
.
[**5-1**] ECHO
The estimated right atrial pressure is 10-20mmHg. Left
ventricular wall thicknesses are normal. The left ventricular
cavity is small. The right ventricular free wall appears
thickened with depressed/paradoxical free wall contractility.
There is markedly abnormal/paradoxical septal motion/position.
The aortic valve is not well seen. The mitral valve appears
structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. There is
no mitral valve prolapse. Tricuspid regurgitation is present but
cannot be quantified. There is a large pericardial effusion
subtending primarily the right atrial and right ventricular free
walls. There is right ventricular diastolic collapse, consistent
with impaired fillling/tamponade physiology.
.
The right atrial free wall and right ventricular free wall
appear markedly thickened with marked acoustic enhancement and
impaired contractile function, suggestive of an inflammatory or
infiltrative process.
.
Compared with the findings of the prior study (images reviewed)
of [**2111-4-20**], a large pericardial effusion and cardiac
tamponade are now present.
.
IMPRESSION: large pericardial effusion subtending the right
atrial and right ventricular free walls; cardiac tamponade is
present
.
[**5-8**] ECHO Regional left ventricular wall motion is normal.
Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF>55%).
There is abnormal septal motion/position. There is a
trivial/physiologic pericardial effusion. There are no
echocardiographic signs of tamponade. Pericardial constriction
cannot be excluded.
.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [**2111-5-4**], the
findings are similar. The presence of abnormal septal motion can
be seen shortly after an effusion is drained
("effusive-constrictive" physiology). This often resolves over
time (several months).
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. [**Known lastname **] is a 42 yo woman with PMH significant for morbid
obesity with gastric bypass who presented from OSH ED with acute
monocytic leukemia, she was treated with 7+3 and her course was
complicated by pericardial tamponade and febrile neutropenia.
.
# Acute Leukemia: Ms. [**Known lastname **] was diagnosed with acute monocytic
leukemia and initiated 7+3 induction chemotherapy with
daunorubicin and cytarabine which she tolerated well.
Cytogenetics on initial bone marrow biopsy showed
54,XX,+X,+1,[**Doctor Last Name **](1)t(1;16)(q11;p11),+3,+4,+8,+14,+20,+21[20]. Day
14 bone marrow biopsy was delayed due to pericardial tamponade.
Day 16 bone marrow biopsy showed hypocellular marrow by report
however on review of the slides, few early forms were seen.
Patient continued to have nightly fevers and blasts were seen on
pheripheral smear. Bone marrow bx was performed early on day 21
and showed early forms, cytogenetics showed normal karyotype in
20/20 cells. Bone marrow biopsy was again repeated [**5-14**], results
were pending at the time of discharge. ANC began to rise on day
21, recovery was sluggish and reached 792 on the day of
discharge. Given complex the cytogenetics of her AML, the plan
will be for her to undergo transplant.
.
# Pulmonary Infiltrates: CT scan obtained on admission showed
bilateral pulmonary opacitities in an interestitial pattern
which were concerning for infection vs. leukemic involvement.
Pulmonology was consulted and bronchoscopy was performed which
was culture negative and did not reveal malignant cells. The
patient's hypoxia resolved with simultaneous treatment with
antibiotics (see below) and chemotherapy. Repeat CT scan showed
resolution of pulmonary opacities.
.
# Pericardial Effusion: The patient developed a dramatic
friction rub on the day after admission that was concern for
effusion. An initial ECHO showed a small perical cardial
effusion and subsequent ECHO described the effusion as trivial.
The patient was hemodynamically stable. On [**2111-5-1**] the friction
rub was absent, EKG showed low voltage across the precordium.
Pulsus was 8mmHg repeat ECHO demonstrated tamponade physiology.
She was hemodynamically stable. Cardiology performed
pericardiocentesis which dropped right atrial pressure from 15
to 1 by draining 85 cc of pericardial fluid which was sent for
viral, bacterial, mycobacterial and fungal culture. A
pericardial drain was placed and removed the next day as little
drainage was noted overnight. Repeat TTE on [**2111-5-2**] showed
resolution of tamponade physiology and normal systolic function.
The study also showed possible thickening of the posterior
parietal pericardium, with tethering of visceral and parietal
surfaces consistent with constrictive pericarditis. She had a
cardiac MRI showing constrictive pericarditis, with a small
circumfrential effusion, normal RV function though RV
hypertrophy was noted. Repeat ECHO showed no evidence of
pericardial tamponade and findings consistent with constrictive
pericarditis. Constrictive pericarditis is expected to resolve
without intervention in the coming months, no specific cause of
the effusion was identified however malignancy vs viral etiology
were considered most likely.
.
# Febrile Neutropenia: The patient developed a fever on day+5 of
chemotherapy. She was initially treated with Vancomycin and
developed a rash she was then pre-medicated for subsequent doses
which were tolerated without issue. She was treated with
Vancomycin and cefepime and continued to have low grade fevers.
Micafungin was added and low grade fevers continued. Antibiotics
were again broadened to include vancomycin, cefepime,
voriconazole, and metronidazole. Potential sources included
central line (removed and tip culture negative) pulmonary,
pericaridal fluid or malignancy. ID was consulted who
recommended sending pericardial fluid for fungal, bacterial and
viral (EBV, Coxackie, Enterovirus, adenovirus) culture and Acid
fast (TB) culture & smear; Cytologic exam; Cell Count and
Differential; Enterovirus RNA, Qualitative, RT-PCR; EBV PCR,
Coxackie PCR, Adenovirus PCR, all of which were negative. CT
Abd/Pelvis on [**5-2**] was performed for further infectious workup
and showed bilateral pleural effusions and presacral soft tissue
thickening without fluid collection which was of unclear
significance. Antibiotics were changed again to Voriconazole,
meropenem, and vancomycin nad metronidazole. She continued to
have fevers to 101 and repeat CT scan showed resolution of soft
tissue thickening and no other fluid collections or pulmonary
findings. Antibiotics were held and fevers resolved. Given
previous reaction to vancomycin, this medication may have been
the source of prolonged fevers. At the time of discharge, she as
afebrile >36 hours.
.
# Menses: Patient was treated with Provera during her
chemotherapy to prevent menses. This failed to prevent menstrual
cycle and was discontinued to lower thrombotic risk.
.
# HTN: Held HCTZ during admission.
.
# Hyperlipidemia: Held statin during admission.
.

Discharge Instructions:
Ms. [**Known lastname **],
It was a pleasure taking care of you in the hospital. You were
admitted with leg pain, pneumonia and abnormal blood counts. You
were found to have acute myelogenous leukemia and were treated
with chemotherapy you had a repeat bone marrow biopsy prior to
being discharged and the results are pending.
.
Your course was complicated by a fluid accumulation around the
heart (pericardial tamponade) and you were admitted to the
intensive care unit where the fluid was removed. A repeat
ultrasound and a cardiac MRI of your heart which showed that the
fluid had not reaccumulated. While your white blood cell count
was low, you developed fevers and were treated with antibiotics,
no source of fever was identified and the antibiotics were
stopped.
.
It is important that you eat a balanced diet following your
chemotherapy. It will be important for you to increase your
intake of red meat and foods high in protein and phosphorous
(meat, grains, nuts) while your body makes new cells to replace
the cells destroyed by chemotherapy.
.
Your medication list has changed substantially since your
admission. Please see the attached list for the medications that
you should be taking.
.
Please see below for follow up appointments.

RADIOLOGY Preliminary Report
MR HEAD W & W/O CONTRAST [**2197-1-5**] 9:04 AM
IMPRESSION: Multiple right-sided enhancing masses as shown on
the pre- procedure examination, which have grown since [**2196-12-19**].
Many of these now show increased central susceptibility, which
was not present on the prior examinations, consistent with
interval hemorrhage into lesions. At least one enhancing lesion
in the right anterior cranial fossa which was shown on the prior
examination is no longer seen, presumably post resection.
Brief Hospital Course:
She was brought to the operating room on [**2197-1-4**], where under
general anesthesia, she underwent a right frontal craniotomy for
resection of recurrent astrocytoma. Postoperatively, she was
transferred to the PACU, where she was monitored overnight
for close neurosurgical checks. Postoperatively, her vital
signs were stable. She was afebrile. She was alert and
oriented times 3. She had no complaints. Her face was
symmetric. Her extraocular movements were intact. Tongue was
midline. Pupils were brisk and reactive bilaterally. She was
strong in all 4 extremities. She continued to do well. Her
diet and activity were increased. She was on steroids, which
was started to be tapered. She continued to do well and she was
discharged to

Attending:[**Last Name (NamePattern4) 290**]
Chief Complaint:
Ascites, need for transplant workup
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
Paracentesis
History of Present Illness:
56 yo female with HepC cirrhosis, esophageal varices, h/o SBP,
HTN, presented to [**Hospital 792**]Hospital on [**6-25**] with abdominal
pain, nausea, and vomiting. While there, she underwent a CT
abd/pelvis with contrast which showed choledocholithiasis and
CBD dilation. She then underwent ERCP, the first one was
unsuccesful, second one monday with papillotomoy and drainage of
stones/bile. During her hospitalization there, her T.bili
continued to rise and last was 22 (up from 16). Also, during
that hospitalization, her creatinine bumped from baseline of 1.0
to to 2.6 (lab results unavailable currently). Renal had seen
her there, felt this was likely ATN, and she was oliguric with
daily UOP 450-650. She had muddy brown casts on the urine
microscopy. After her ERCP, she had FFP, and then developed
hypoxia, tachypnea, and bilateral infiltrate. This was thought
to potentially be pulmonary edema, but TRALI was also possible.
Also, she had urine/blood cultures which were negative, and 2
paracenteses that were negative for SBP. She was transferred
here to [**Hospital1 18**] for further transplant eval. Prior to transfer,
she was hemodynamically stable, and was on 4L O2 with high 90s
sats.
.
Here, the patient states that she has abdominal bloating. She
denies fevers, chills. Denies headache. She does report some
mild nausea. She has no other complaints.
.
Review of systems:
(+) Per HPI
(-) Denies fever, chills, night sweats. Denies headache, sinus
tenderness, rhinorrhea or congestion. Denied shortness of
breath. Denied chest pain or tightness, palpitations. Denied
diarrhea. She does report significant constipation.
Past Medical History:
HCV cirrhosis
Esophageal varices (grade unknown)
HTN
h/o SBP

24.4 -> 22.2 -> 23.5 -> 23.3 -> 21.8 -> 25.5 -> 21.7 -> 31.3
plt trends:
44 -> 90 -> 126 -> 46
Studies:
[**7-6**] CXR:
Lung volumes are somewhat low, but interstitial markings appear
prominent and the pulmonary vasculature is indistinct. The
cardiac silhouette appears large, although cardiac size may be
exaggerated by AP technique. Mediastinal structures are
otherwise unremarkable. The bony thorax is grossly intact.
IMPRESSION: Increased interstitial markings which may represent
mild edema.
[**7-7**] Doppler abdominal ultrasound:
The nodular liver is seen without focal lesion. There is a
moderate amount of ascites. There are also bilateral pleural
effusions. The hepatic vasculature is patent without evidence of
thrombosis. The gallbladder is contracted, without stones. No
evidence of intrahepatic or extrahepatic biliary ductal
dilatation.
The right kidney measures 10 cm, and the left kidney measures
9.3 cm. There is no evidence of hydronephrosis or renal calculi.
In the left upper pole, there is a 5mm echogenic focus, without
posterior shadowing, most likely representing a congenital AML.
IMPRESSION:
1. Patent hepatic vasculature without evidence of thrombosis.
2. Moderate ascites.
3. Bilateral pleural effusions.
4. Nodular liver without focal lesions.
[**7-8**] EKG:
Sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia. Left axis deviation.
Possible
anteroseptal anterior and lateral myocardial infarction, age
undetermined. Possible inferior myocardial infarction, age
undetermined. Possible left ventricular hypertrophy
[**7-9**] EKG:
Sinus rhythm. Left axis deviation. Probable left ventricular
hypertrophy.
[**7-9**] CXR:
Single portable upright chest radiograph is compared to the
prior study from [**2147-7-6**]. Since prior study, interstitial edema
has diminished and appears resolved. Heart and mediastinum are
within normal limits. Lungs are clear.
[**7-13**] MRCP:
There is a cirrhotic, nodular liver. No focal liver lesions are
identified. The umbilical vein is recanalized. No filling
detects are visualized within the hepatic vasculature; the
portal vein is patent. No evidence of gastroesophageal varices.
Assessment of the MRCP is severely limited due to technical
factors related to 3T artifacts from the patient's ascites.
There is, however, no biliary ductal dilatation and no definite
evidence of retained stones.
Spleen, pancreas, kidneys, and adrenal glands show no
abnormalities. No
significant lymphadenopathy. Visualized bowel shows no
abnormalities. No
abnormal marrow signal is evident.
IMPRESSION:
1. Cirrhotic liver with severe ascites.
2. MRCP limited by 3T artifact due to degree of patient's
ascites. However,
no definite evidence of retained stones or biliary ductal
abnormalities.
For subsequent examinations for this patient, suggest that
studies be
performed on a 1.5 Tesla magnet.
[**7-14**] ECHO:
The left atrium is normal in size. Left ventricular wall
thickness, cavity size and regional/global systolic function are
normal (LVEF >55%). Right ventricular chamber size and free wall
motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) appear
structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic
regurgitation. There is no aortic valve stenosis. The mitral
valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral valve
prolapse. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The estimated
pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal. There is no
pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: Normal global and regional biventricular systolic
function. No diastolic LV dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension,
or clinically-significant valvular disease seen.
Multiplanar 2D and 3D reformations provided multiple
perspectives for the
dynamic series.
[**7-16**] CT abdomen and pelvis:
There is gross ascites. The majority of the fluid in the abdomen
and pelvis measures in the region of 10 Hounsfield units,
compatible with simple fluid. There is, however, some minimal
amount of dependent higher attenuation material in the free
fluid in the pelvis (series 2, image 75), raising the
possibility of a small amount of intraperitoneal hemorrhage or
debris.
The liver is small and nodular in contour, compatible with given
history of cirrhosis. The spleen is normal in size. The pancreas
is normal in
morphology and attenuation. The adrenal glands are normal. There
is a small calculus in the interpolar region of the left kidney
measuring 5 mm in diameter. There is a tiny [**Doctor Last Name **] of
calcification measuring approximately 1 mm in the lower pole of
the right kidney (series 2, image 41).
There is no significant retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. The
bowel caliber is normal in appearance. There is no evidence of
free air in the abdomen or pelvis. There is patchy atelectasis
in the lower lobes bilaterally. No focal bone lesion or fracture
is seen.
IMPRESSION:
1. Gross ascites, predominantly with simple-appearing fluid, but
some dense material in the dependent portion of the fluid in the
pelvis raises the possibility of a small amount of
intraperitoneal hemorrhage or debris.
2. Nodular low volume liver compatible with cirrhosis.
3. Small interpolar region of left kidney calculus.
4. Bibasilar atelectasis.
Brief Hospital Course:
# HCV Cirrhosis: Decompensated liver failure with encephalopathy
on admission; likely after ERCP and cholelithiasis. INR
elevated, T.bili elevated from baseline in the 3s. Abdominal
ultrasound on admission to [**Hospital1 18**] showed no thrombosis,
macronodular liver contour without focal lesion, contracted
gallbladder, ascites and pleural effusion. MRCP also found no
retained stones or biliary distention. No SBP. She received
aldactone, lactulose, rifaxamin and nadalol. Transplant workup
was initiated but on hold pending insurance activation.
#. Coagulopathy: She had low platelet count and elevated INR
secondary to her liver disease which was the likely cause of her
previous limited episode of bright red blood per rectum, mild
hemoptyosis and hematuria. Throughout these previous episodes,
she remained hemodynamically stable and asymptomatic. She
received blood products, PPI and octreotide. Did not attribute
this bleeding to variceal bleeds although she had a history of
this with subsequent banding back in [**Month (only) **]. On the day of
transfer to the MICU, she was hypotensive in the morning and had
a bloody paracentesis. She was given more blood products and
albumin, and had a CT that was negative for bleeding source.
However, she had another lower GI bleed overnight and was
transferred to the MICU where she was resuscitated with pRBC,
FFP, Platlets, Cryo and taken to IR to attempt to find a source
of the bleeding which was unsucessful. After returing to the
MICU from IR Ms. [**Known lastname 4186**] continued to have copious bright red
blood per rectum. She became bradycardic and then became
pulseless and was found to be in asystole. Despite continued
resuscitation efforts with blood product and following ACLS
attempts at resuscitation were unsucessful and Ms. [**Known lastname 4186**] died at
0822hrs.
# Cholelithiasis: Had two ERCPs at [**Hospital 792**]Hospital with
improvement of pain, though elevating t.bili which may be
secondary to worsening hepatic failure. Her baseline t bili in
the 3s. Resolving ascending cholangitis. MRCP shows no further
stones or duct dilation. Covered with Zosyn as she had been on
ppx Cipro. She was also on ursodiol.
# Acute Kidney Injury: Thought to be ATN secondary to relative
hypotension. [**Name2 (NI) **] baseline creatinine is 1.0 but was elevated up
to 2.7 in [**Doctor Last Name **]. Her Cr improved over time with
maintaining equal, normal volume status.
# Hypoxia: Mild hypoxia on admission that resolved over her
hospital stay. Unclear etiology- could have been fluid overload
from blood products or possible TRALI. Unlikely infectious
given negative workup thus far and afebrile.
# Blood pressure: Had some hypotensive episodes attritubuted to
low intravascular volume. Her pressure responded to IVFs and
albumin. Her diuretics were held during hypotensive periods.

History of Present Illness:
64 year old man with history of cadaveric kidney transplant in
[**2109**] after acute tubular necrosis from a viral gastroenteritis
whose kidney function has been slowly worsening of the past year
who presents with shortness of breath for 1 week. Patient
reports cough and shortness of breath, mainly with extertion for
the past week. The symptoms started with runny noise and the
patient thought he had a cold. He notice dyspnea on extertion
when he was walking from his car to his house, a distance he is
normally able to do without difficulty. He also has noted this
dry cough, worse at night that makes him sit up off the side of
the bed. He denies any chest pain or history of chest pain with
extertion. He also denies recent fevers, chills, nausea,
vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or constipation. He has
noticed a progressive decrease in his urine output over the past
year but no acute change recently. He does not occasional
intermittent dysuria. He denies any recent medication
non-compliance or change in his diet. Patient does feel like he
has been gaining weight over the past few months.
.
The patient was also recently admitted at [**Hospital3 2568**] for a
similar progressive shortness of breath. It was thought due to
his worsening renal function. He was diuresed and he improved.
.
The patient also reports a fall two weeks prior to admission.
Patient tripped on stairs at his home and fell. He did hit his
head but denies any LOC. He denies any associated chest pain,
weakness, dizziness, or palpitations.

STUDIES
=======
UNILAT LOWER EXT VEINS RIGHT [**2115-2-12**]
RIGHT LOWER EXTREMITY ULTRASOUND: The exam is technically
limited, because pain limited the patient's ability to tolerate
compression of the superficial femoral vein at its mid and
distal portions. Grayscale and Doppler [**Year/Month/Day 108683**] were obtained
of the right common femoral, proximal superficial femoral, and
popliteal veins. Normal compressibility, color flow and
waveforms are seen. Color flow and Doppler [**Name (NI) 108683**], without
compression, were obtained for the mid and distal right
superficial femoral vein. Normal color flow and waveforms are
seen. The left common femoral vein demonstrates normal color
flow and waveforms. IMPRESSION: DVT highly unlikely. However,
cannot be completely ruled out due to technical limitations
resulting from patient discomfort. If clinical concern persists,
followup exam can be performed following appropriate pain
control.
.
AP PORTABLE CHEST [**2115-2-12**]
The study is limited secondary to AP portable technique and body
habitus. The cardiomediastinal configuration remains markedly
enlarged but stable. The cardiac silhouette is globular in
morphology. There is no superimposed edema or consolidation
evident. No effusion or pneumothorax is seen. Again noted and
slightly exaggerated is a dextroconcave curvature of the
thoracic spine likely at least in part positional.
IMPRESSION: Low lung volumes; however, no focal consolidation
seen. Stable marked cardiomegaly.
.
ECG Study Date of [**2115-2-12**]
Atrial fibrillation with moderate ventricular response. Diffuse
low voltage. Delayed precordial R wave transition. Diffuse
non-specific ST-T wave changes. Compared to the previous tracing
of [**2110-10-14**] atrial fibrillation has appeared. Rate 85, PR 0, QRS
88, QT/QTc 392/435, P 0, QRS 15, T 89
.
Portable TTE (Complete) Done [**2115-2-14**]
The left atrium is moderately dilated. The right atrium is
moderately dilated. The estimated right atrial pressure is
10-15mmHg. Left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size and
regional/global systolic function are normal (LVEF 70%) 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) are mildly thickened but aortic
stenosis is not present. Trace aortic regurgitation is seen. The
mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no mitral
valve prolapse. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic
hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion. Compared with
the findings of the prior report (images unavailable for review)
of [**2109-10-22**], cardiac rhythm now atrial fibrillation; no
pericardial effusion seen; otherwise findings similar.
.
CHEST (PORTABLE AP) [**2115-2-18**]
The right supraclavicular catheter remains in place with tip in
the right atrium. Bibasilar atelectasis are again seen, slightly
worsened on today's examination with a lower lung volume than
before. Small bilateral pleural effusion have not changed. There
is cardiomegaly along with minimal vascular congestion. The
abdomen is gasless. IMPRESSION:
1. Lower lung volume with more prominent bibasilar atelectasis.
2. Right central catheter still terminates in the right atrium,
for which repositioning is required.
.
CTA CHEST W&W/O C&RECONS, NON-; CT ABDOMEN W/O CONTRAST,
[**2115-2-20**]
1. No pulmonary embolism. There is CT evidence of pulmonary
hypertension.
2. The lung parenchyma is not well evaluated given that the
amount of respiratory motion present. There appear to be
centrilobular nodules, ground- glass opacity and atelectasis.
There are small bilateral pleural effusions.
3. Cardiomegaly and coronary artery calcifications.
4. Rounded hypodense liver lesions are not fully characterized
on this study but not appear greatly changed from [**2109-12-2**].
5. The spleen is generous in size.
6. Right lower quadrant renal transplant.
7. Right flank ecchymosis and focal right abdominal wall
muscular enlargement, possibly representing a hematoma. This
muscle enlarged should be followed to complete resolution to
exclude an underlying mass. Consider targeted ultrasound for
followup.
.
VENOUS DUP EXT UNI (MAP/DVT) LEFT [**2115-2-21**]
The left basilic vein was not identified, presumably thrombosed.
The left cephalic vein is patent and measures 0.23 cm in
diameter superiorly and 0.37 cm in diameter in the forearm
distally. In between, measurements range from 0.21-0.33, as
charted on the vasculat lab diagram. The left brachial artery
is patent with triphasic waveforms. There is respiratory
phasicity of the left subclavian venous waveform.
.
[**2114-2-26**] EKG
Atrial fibrillation, average ventricular rate 80-85. Generalized
low voltage. Delayed precordial R wave progression - cannot
exclude anterior myocardial infarction. Generalized non-specific
repolarization changes most marked anteroseptally and laterally
consistent with ischemia. Compared to the previous tracing of
[**2115-2-13**] anteroseptal T wave inversions are new.

SPECIMEN SCREENED FOR: ADENO,PARAINFLUENZA 1,2,3 INFLUENZA A,B
AND RSV. VIRAL CULTURE (Final [**2115-2-27**]): HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS
TYPE 1. CONFIRMED BY MONOCLONAL FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY
Brief Hospital Course:
#. RESPIRATORY DISTRESS
The patient's respiratory distress was likely multifactorial due
to volume overload and RSV infection (by nasopharyngeal
aspirate). In the MICU, the patient was also determined to have
chronic CO2 retention likely secondary to obstructive sleep
apnea given his habitus. Of note, pt did not tolerate BiPap
trial in unit. Pt received 3 days of burst steroids for ? COPD
exacerbation, was discontinued given lack of improvement and no
known COPD (not a smoker). In addition, Mr. [**Known lastname 108684**] beta
blocker was discontinued as uptitration of it was thought to
exacerbate his wheezing. CT chest was negative for pulmonary
embolism. Hemodialysis was initiated. The patient was diuresed
to a net negative fluid balance of ~10 L on HD with significant
improvement in wheezing/decreased O2 saturations/rhonchi after
dialysis. However, wheezing persisted and low O2 saturations
(~91% room air) persisted after significant volume removal.
Nasopharyngeal aspirate showed patient had an RSV infection.
Pulmonary was consulted and there was no indication for an
antiviral medication for RSV. Supportive care was provided for
viral pulmonary infection. Of note, viral cultures of the
nasopharyngeal aspirate grew HSV 1, which was felt to be a
normal colonizer of the patient's respiratory tract. By the
time the HSV culture returned ([**2-27**]), the patient's respiratory
status was at baseline; no antiviral for HSV was felt to be
indicated. Upon discharge, the patient had clear lungs to
auscultation bilaterally and had an normal O2 saturation on room
air. Bactrim was continued for prophylaxis. Sleep study was
recommended as an outpatient to evaluate the need for home
BiPAP.
.
#. END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE ON HEMODIALYSIS
See above. Failed cadaveric renal transplant in [**2109**], initiated
on hemodialysis on this admission with successful placement of
tunneled line on this admission. For renal transplant,
continued low dose prednisone, and cyclosporine was decreased to
25 mg daily. He was maintained on a fluid restricted diet.
Venogram was performed in anticipation of outpatient fistula
placement. He was scheduled for a vascular surgery appointment
as an outpatient for fistula placement.
.
#. ATRIAL FIBRILLATION
The patient has a history of atrial fibrillation s/p
cardioversion and re-presented in atrial fibrillation in the
setting of metabolic derangements and fluid overload. Home
betablocker was discontined (due to persistent wheezing), and
diltiazem was provided for rate control. Of note, diltiazem
elevates cyclosporin which could be problem[**Name (NI) 115**] in this patient.
In the future if respiratory distress deemed not to be related,
beta blocker may provide more cardiac benefit and also does not
have cross reaction with cyclosporin; defer to outpatient PCP.
[**Name10 (NameIs) **] cards, no cardioversion was indicated during this admission
as the patient could not lie flat for procedure, which would
require TEE. Per ther recs: outpatient cardiology f/u in [**2-11**]
weeks with Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 73**] for outpatient cardioversion once
respiratory status improves. Coumadin was provided after HD line
placed; he was bridged with heparin drip until then. Upon
discharge, he was off the heparin drip and therapeutic on
coumadin. He was in atrial fibrillation through admission with
adequate rate control upon discharge.
.
#. ACIDEMIA
The patien presented with mixed metabolic and respiratory
acidosis. Respiratory component possibly due to CO2 retention
(OSA vs obesity hypoventilation syndrome vs COPD); AG metabolic
acidosis due to his renal failure. His acidemia improved with
dialysis and adjustment of diasylate bath.
.

This 83 year old female with a history of rheumatic heart
disease has been followed by serial echocardiograms for both
mitral and aortic valvular disease. She was hospitalized for CHF
4 years ago when the diagnosis was revealed. Interestingly her
last echocardiogram in [**2160-11-13**] showed moderate to severe
aortic stenosis with mild to moderate aortic insufficiency and
mild to
moderate mitral regurgitation, however, her cardiac
catheterization
revealed mild aortic stenosis and severe mitral regurgitation.
She is symptomatic with significant fatigue. She was seen
previously and admitted this time for Heparin bridge and

Brief Hospital Course:
Heparin was begun after admission and on [**2-10**] she went to the
Operating Room where surgery was performed. See operative note
for details. She weaned from bypass on NeoSynephrine and
Propofol infusions. She remained stable, was awakened and
extubated the evening of surgery and came off pressor quickly.
She then was hypertensive, requiring Nitroglycerin intravenously
for control. She was diuresed and was weak and confused.
She remained in the ICU for several days, transferring to the
floor on [**2-16**]. She had a very poor appetite, as at home according
to family and was very slow to participate in her care (also as
at home). A feeding tube remained in (stoach ) and tube feeding
were given. Speech and swallow studiesd were done several times
and she was advance to a ground solids/nectar thick liquid diet
with crushed pills in puree.
She had urinary retension and the Foley was replaced on [**2-19**] for
700cc. Hopefully as she becomes mobile this will resolve. She
was changed to nocturnal tube feeds(1900-0400) with full
strength Glucerna 1.0 at 55cc/hour. This was in a effort to get
her to eat during the day. She requires much encouragement and
prompting to eat, use the incentive spirometer and help with her
care.
Coumadin was resumed for her chronic atrial fibrillation, with a
target INR of [**1-15**].5.
She was discharged to [**Hospital3 7665**] Hospital in [**Hospital1 3597**], NH for
further recovery on [**2-19**]. All follow up appointments were given.

Service: NB
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: Baby [**Name (NI) **] [**Known lastname 2816**] is the former
1.66 kg product of a 34-2/7 week gestation pregnancy born to
a 39-year-old G3, P1 now 2 woman.
PRENATAL SCREENS: [**Known lastname **] type O-, antibody negative, rubella
immune, RPR nonreactive, hepatitis B surface antigen
negative, group beta strep status unknown.
PREGNANCY COMPLICATIONS: Gestational diabetes, diet
controlled. Amniocentesis was performed secondary to the
advanced maternal age and was normal. There were uterine
fibroids seen on prenatal ultrasound. On the day of delivery
the baby had a biophysical profile of [**3-16**] and a nonreactive
fetal heart rate tracing. This prompted a cesarean section
under spinal anesthesia. The large fibroids required a
classical incision for the cesarean section. The fibroids
were removed prior to delivery of the infant. Rupture of
membranes occurred at the time of delivery with clear fluid.
Apgars were 7 at 1 minutes and 8 at 5 minutes. The infant was
admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit for treatment of
prematurity.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION UPON ADMISSION TO THE NEONATAL INTENSIVE
CARE UNIT: Weight 1.66 kg at the 10th percentile, length
44.5 cm, head circumference 29.5 cm. General: Small preterm
male infant. Pink and comfortable in room air. HEENT:
Anterior fontanel soft and flat. Nondysmorphic facies. Intact
palate. Chest: Breath sounds clear. Good aeration.
Cardiovascular: No murmur. Normal pulses. Abdomen: Soft. No
hepatosplenomegaly. A 3-vessel cord. GU: Hypospadias noted.
Testes descended into scrotum. Extremities: Hips stable.
Moving all spine straight. Normal sacrum. Skin: Mongolian
spot over buttocks, a 2 cm x 1.5 cm nevus on the
back of the left thigh. Neurologic: Normal tone. Moving all
extremities. Appropriate reflexes.
HOSPITAL COURSE BY SYSTEMS: Respiratory: This baby boy
developed respiratory distress over the 1st few hours after
admission to the neonatal intensive care unit. He was
initially on nasal cannula O2 that was later changed to
continuous positive airway pressure. A chest x-ray was
concerning for haziness, especially of the left lung field.
By day of life #2 the baby had transitioned to room air. A
repeat chest x-ray on day of life #3 was within normal
limits. Due to the unknown etiology of the respiratory
distress, the baby was treated empirically with antibiotics.
Cardiovascular: This baby has maintained normal heart rates
and [**Date Range **] pressures. No murmurs have been noted.
Fluids, electrolytes, nutrition: Initial whole [**Date Range **] glucose
was 41. Infant was treated with intravenous 10% glucose in
water. Enteral feeds were started on day of life #2 and were
gradually advanced and were well tolerated. At discharge he
weighed 1895 grams and was taking > 160 cc/kg of Neosure 24.
Infectious disease: As previously noted, the infant was
treated empirically with antibiotics. A complete [**Date Range **] count
was within normal limits. A [**Date Range **] culture obtained prior to
starting intravenous antibiotics was no growth at 48 hours,
and the antibiotics were discontinued.
Hematological: This baby and mother are [**Name2 (NI) **] type [**Name (NI) **] and
direct antibody test negative. Hematocrit at birth was 43%.
Gastrointestinal: Peak serum bilirubin occurred on day of
life #4. Phototherapy was started on day of life #3.
at peak with a total of 8.3 mg/dl. On day of life 6 it was
6.5/0.3, phototherapy was d'c d and 48 hour rebound level was
6.1/0.4.
Neurology: This infant has maintained a normal neurological
exam during admission. There are no neurological concerns at
this time.
Urology: As noted in the admission physical exam, this baby
has a hypospadias. It was explained to mother why we woulld
not have him circumcized. He will be seen as outpatient by
urology.
Sensory: Audiology: Hearing screening passed on [**2112-10-11**].
Immunizations: Hepatitis B given on [**2112-10-11**].
Medications: Ferrous Sulfate 0.2 cc's PO daily.
Primary pediatrician will be [**Hospital1 **] at [**Location (un) **]/ Dr. [**First Name8 (NamePattern2) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) **] on [**10-18**]. VNA to come to
home day post discharge.
DISCHARGE DIAGNOSES:
1. Prematurity at 34-2/7 weeks gestation.
2. Transitional respiratory distress.
3. Suspicion for sepsis ruled out.
4. Unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia.
5. Hypospadias.
Will have Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) **] recheck for red reflex as am currently
unable to visualize. No cataracts seen, eyes deeply pigmented.

woman with a history of suicidal ideation, pseudoseizures,
endometriosis status post right oophorectomy, chronic
abdominal pain, gastroparesis, and positional orthostatic
tachycardiac syndrome.
The patient presented to the emergency department on the day
of admission when he was brought in by the EMS after an
overdose of narcotics including several pills of MSIR. More
precisely, on counting the pills, there were three bottles
provided by EMS. The first, MS Contin was prescribed on
[**2155-5-28**], filled for 60 pills and had one pill left
in the bottle. The second, MSIR was prescribed on [**2155-5-2**] with a prescription for 30 pills and had one left
in the bottle. The third, MSIR, was prescribed on [**2155-6-18**] and it was for 120 pills with 20 pills left in the
bottle. Apparently, the patient took the pills to "go to
sleep." She then called her PCP to tell her about what she
had done and the PCP immediately [**Name (NI) 653**] the EMS. When the
EMS arrived, the patient was lucid and ambulatory. She then
quickly became unresponsive. She was brought to [**Hospital1 346**]. En route, they were unable to
obtain IV access and they gave her a total of 6 mg IM Narcan
with no response. In the emergency department, the patient
was intubated for respiratory depression and received a total
of 4 mg IV Narcan. She was eventually placed on a 0.4 mg per
hour Narcan drip. She was given p.o. charcoal and required 8
mg Ativan, while the charcoal was being administered. She
was subsequently extubated after waking up. The patient was
admitted to the Medical Intensive Care Unit for close
monitoring of her respiratory status, Narcan drip and
suicidal ideation.
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY:
1. Suicidal ideation. The patient was seen in the [**Hospital1 1444**] Emergency Department [**2156-7-4**] for suicidal ideation. She was discharged after
evaluation.

by the neurologist, Dr. [**First Name4 (NamePattern1) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) 2405**]. On [**2156-6-14**] the
patient underwent tilt-table testing in the autonomic
laboratory. This study revealed postural tachycardia
followed by a hypertensive bradycardiac syncope.
3. History of pseudoseizures.
4. Endometriosis status post right oophorectomy.
5. Chronic abdominal pain.
6. Gastroparesis.
7. PPD positive.
8. CT angiogram on [**2156-2-21**] negative for pulmonary

13.7, hematocrit 38.3, and platelet count of 364,000. She
had a sodium of 144, potassium 3.8, chloride 105, bicarbonate
26, BUN 8, creatinine 0.9, and glucose of 129. Urinalysis
was negative. Coagulations were within normal limits. Urine
toxicology screen was positive for benzodiazepines (probably
received in the emergency room) and opiates. Urine
toxicology screen was negative. EKG was sinus rhythm at 93
with a normal axis and normal intervals. There were no acute
ST or T-wave changes. Chest x-ray was clear.
HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was admitted to the Medical
Intensive Care Unit on a Narcan drip at 0.4 mg per hour. She
was alert and cooperative at the time and remained so
throughout her admission. On the morning of [**2156-7-6**],
the Narcan drip was slowly titrated to off. The patient
remained alert and oriented, answering questions
appropriately without signs of respiratory distress or
depression. She was seen by the Psychiatry Department, who
felt that the patient required inpatient [**Year (4 digits) **]
admission for a serious and almost successful suicide
attempt. The patient was medically cleared on [**2156-7-6**]
and transferred to the [**Hospital1 **] [**First Name (Titles) **] [**Last Name (Titles) 7637**]
Facility. During the entire course of her hospital stay at
[**Hospital1 69**], she was observed by a
1:1 sitter for safety.

Brief Hospital Course:
Admitted same day surgery and was brought to the operating room
and underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery. See
operative report for further details. In summary she had CABG x3
with LIMA-LAD,SVG-OM1, SVG-OM2. Her bypass time was 73 minutes
with a crossclamp of 58 minutes. She tolerated the operation
well and was transferred to the CVICU in stable condition. She
received vancomycin for perioperative antibiotics. In the
intensive care unit she was weaned from sedation, awoke
neurologically intact and extubated without complications. On
post operative day one she was started on beta blockers and
diuretics and transferred to the floor. Physical therapy worked
with her on strength and mobility. On post operative day two her
chest tubes were removed. Her epicardial wires were removed the
following day. She was gently diuresed toward her pre-operative
weight. Her activity level gradually advanced and by
post-operative day four she was discharged to home with the
approval Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 914**]. All follow-up appointments were advised
per cardiac surgery protocol.

Chief Complaint:
hemoptysis
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
s/p bronchial artery embolization
History of Present Illness:
79-year-old male with history of NSCLC s/p chemotherapy and
radiation in [**2191**] with local recurrence diagnosed [**4-10**] who
developed hemoptysis and was transferred for bronchial artery
embolization.
.
The patient was doing well until a couple months ago. At that
time he developed intermittent hemoptysis. This was scant and
intermittent until [**5-6**] day ago. At that time he noted increased
hemoptysis totaling a couple teaspoons and he presented to
[**Hospital3 3765**] on [**2199-12-4**]. He was noted to have Hct of 28, had
bronchoscopy with 90% obstructing mass in proximal right
bronchus at the orifice of RML and RLL. Per note, the mass was
fungating and polypoid. Electrocautery coagulation was done with
reduction of the amount of bleeding. He has evidence of mets to
RML and RLL. He was transferred to [**Hospital1 18**] for bronchial artery
embolization.
.
At [**Hospital1 18**] his hct was noted to be 28.2. He was breathing
comfortably with 4L NC. He was monitored on floor until
procedure. He underwent a right bronchial artery embolization
(330-550 microns) which was uncomplicated. After the procedure
the patient was transferred from angio table to stretcher and
developed tachypnea to 40s, desaturation to low 80s on 2L NC and
significant work of breathing. He was switched to 8L simple face
mask with saturation to 90. 15L NRB with saturation to 95. He
was given 1mg morphine and albuterol treatment with some ease in
breathing. CXR was done with no apparent change from prior
description (although no comparison CXR). ABG of 7.42/47/23 with
SaO2 of 95%. Over the next 5-10 minutes the patient became more
comfortable and patient no longer in respiratory distress. NRB
was weaned to simple face mask. Request was made to have patient
observed in MICU overnight.
.
Upon transfer, initial vitals were: BP 154/65, HR 115, RR 35,
SaO2 94% on 50% FM. The patient denies pain, fevers, chills,
nausea, vomiting, diaphoresis, diarrhea, constipation. He
endorses intermittent shortness of breath and notes he
occassionally has productive cough, sometimes with blood clots.
Past Medical History:
1. Stage IIIB NSCLC, s/p radiation and chemotherapy in [**2191**].
Cancer was originally in distal trachea near right bronchus.
Patient in [**4-10**] was noted to have local recurrence during an

.
CXR [**2199-12-11**]:
FINDINGS: Right middle and lower lobe post-obstructive
combination of
collapse and consolidation with volume loss and rightward shift
of midline
structures is unchanged. Increased opacity within the right
upper lobe and
the entire left lung reflects vascular congestion and
mild-to-moderate
pulmonary edema. Cardiac silhouette is significantly obscured.
There is no
pneumothorax or left effusion.
IMPRESSION: Mild-to-moderate pulmonary edema within the left
lung and right upper lobe with unchanged right pleural effusion
and post-obstructive atelectasis and consolidation of the right
middle and lower lobes.
.
LENIs [**2199-12-9**]:
FINDINGS: Grayscale, color and Doppler images were obtained of
bilateral
common femoral, superficial femoral, popliteal and tibial veins.
There is
normal flow, compression and augmentation seen in all the
vessels.
IMPRESSION: No evidence of deep vein thrombosis in either leg.
.
CT chest with contrast [**2199-12-8**]:
CT OF THE CHEST WITH CONTRAST: No pathologically enlarged
supraclavicular, or axillary lymph nodes are present. A small
8-mm left hilar node seen. There is loss of the normal fat plane
along the right mediastinal surface with 2 inferior
paraesophageal nodes measuring 6 and 10 mm in short axis (2:29).
Volume loss is noted involving the right lung with
paramediastinal fibrosis seen bilaterally, but predominantly on
the right in the upper lobe which is poorly enhancing. Some
aerosolized secretions are noted within the distal trachea
extending into the proximal main stem bronchi on the right with
complete occlusion of the bronchus intermedius and proximal
segmental branches of the right middle and right lower lobe by
soft tissue mass. The right upper lobe bronchus has some
secretions within its origin but is patent distally.
The overall size of the right hilar mass is difficult to
delineate in
conjunction with the surrounding post-obstructive collapse of a
large portion of the right lower lobe with the vasculature
remaining patent and coursing through the atelectatic lung. Some
scattered centrilobular nodules are noted within the right upper
lobe in conjunction with regions of bronchiolectasis and
bronchial/bronchiole wall thickening (4:64). The aerated
portions of the right middle and right lower lobe display
bronchiectasis, interstitial septal thickening and surrounding
ground-glass opacities. Mild thickening is noted along the
pleural surface of the right major and minor fissures. Mild
enhancement is noted along the right pleural surface in
conjunction with a moderate-sized pleural effusion with fissural
components.
The left lung displays some apical scarring and paramediastinal
fibrotic
changes as well as a tubular 4 x 6-mm nodule within the lingula
(4:95),
without any other suspicious pulmonary nodules. Underlying
traction
bronchiectasis is noted adjacent to the post-radiation changes
with the
remaining airways appearing otherwise unremarkable. Moderate
background
centrilobular emphysema is better appreciated within the more
normal-appearing left lung.
Mild-to-moderate atherosclerotic calcification is noted
involving the aortic arch, ascending/descending aorta, and
coronary arteries. Atherosclerotic calcification is also noted
involving the aortic valve. Incidentally noted is independent
takeoff of the left vertebral artery from the aortic arch.
Included portions of the upper abdomen display a few scattered
small
cardiophrenic lymph nodes. No suspicious masses within the
liver, spleen,
kidneys, pancreas, or visualized bowel. Both adrenal glands
appear
hypertrophied more prominent on the left side.
BONE WINDOWS: No malignant-appearing osseous lesions are noted.
IMPRESSION:
1. Poorly defined mass in the region of the right hilum with
complete
opacification of the bronchus intermedius and proximal segmental
branches of the right middle and right lower lobe bronchi. The
right upper lobe bronchus is opacified at its orifice but likely
with fluid which is present within the distal right mainstem
bronchus. There are extensive post-obstructive and post
radiation changes involving the right lung with resultant volume
loss. Lymphangitic spread of disease is not excluded.
2. Moderate-sized right pleural effusion with pleural
enhancement suggesting complex fluid. Effusion surrounds the
large portion of the right lower lobe with fissural components.
Left lobe contains single lingular nodule and mild
post-radiation changes
Note: Please note assessment for superimposed pneumonia,
pulmonary
hemorrhage, or worsening post-obstructive changes is not
possible in the
absence of any prior exams available for our review.
[**2199-12-6**] s/p embolization:
PROCEDURE:
1. Right common femoral arterial access.
2. Aortogram.
3. Bronchial artery embolization.
DETAILS: After explaining the risks, benefits, and alternatives
to the
procedure, a written informed consent was obtained. The patient
was brought to the angiographic suite and placed supine on the
table. A timeout and huddle was performed per [**Hospital1 18**] protocol.
The right groin was prepped and draped in a sterile fashion.
Under continuous fluoroscopic and palpatory guidance, the right
common femoral artery access was obtained using a micropuncture
system, which was then exchanged for a 5 French vascular sheath,
the sidearm of which was connected to a continuous heparin
flush. A 5 French pigtail catheter was then advanced into the
aorta over [**Initials (NamePattern4) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern4) 7648**] wire and aortogram was performed. Next,
multiple different catheters over the wire were tried to
cannulate the common bronchial trunk arising from the aorta. Due
to the tortuous and acute orientation of the origin of the
common bronchial trunk, the cannulation and advancement of the
catheter was difficult. However, with extreme care, a Renegade
catheter over an angled Glidewire was advanced further into the
common bronchial trunk. Arteriograms were performed to confirm
the location.
Further advancement of the catheter over the Glidewire was not
possible due to the extreme tortuous anatomy of the vessels.
Hence, it was decided to perform embolization from this
location. 300-500 micron Embospheres were then used to embolize
with intermittent saline flushes. Care was taken to avoid
anyreflux. Intermittent hand angiograms were performed to rule
out filling of the anterior spinal artery. Further embolization
was stopped when stagnancy in antegrade flow was noted. The
catheter and the wires were then removed followed by the
vascular sheath and manual pressure held over the arterial
puncture site for about 15 minutes until good hemostasis was
achieved.
FINDINGS:
1. Aortogram performed demonstrating common bronchial trunk. The
right
bronchial artery is relatively hypertrophied as compared to the
left. No
active extravasation is noted.
2. No contribution to the anterior spinal artery from the
bronchial arteries is noted.
IMPRESSION: Successful Embosphere embolization of the common
bronchial trunk with preferential flow into the right bronchial
artery. Far distal
embolization selectively into the right bronchial artery was not
possible at this stage due to the difficult angle of origin and
tortuousity.
Brief Hospital Course:
This is a 79-year-old male with history of NSCLC s/p chemo and
XRT in [**2191**] now with local recurrence who developed hemoptysis
and s/p right bronchial artery embolization who developed
hypoxic respiratory distress.
.
# Hypoxic respiratory distress: The patient developed hypoxemic
respiratory distress after being turned on right side after
procedure. The differential is broad and includes airway
obstruction from tumor, mucous plugging, intermittent
bronchospasm, and pulmonary embolus. The most likely etiology of
the original hypoxia was secondary to airway obstruction from
tumor or from mucous plugging causing temporary shunt
physiology. This is likely because it occurred after patient was
turned on right side, was temporary, and relieved by coughing.
Interval CXRs showed worsening opacifiation of his right lung
suggesting complete tumor or mucous occlusion of his bronchus
versus a post obstructive pneumonia process. He was started and
continued on IV vanocmycin (day 1 was [**12-7**]) and cefepime (day 1
was [**12-7**]) as all cultures remained negative. He then spiked a
fever and flagyl was started on [**12-9**]. The plan is for a total of
a 14 day course of all antibiotics. The patient was given
nebulizations to ease any possible bronchospastic response. No
peripheral signs of DVT, including negative LENIs although pt is
mildly tachycardic and PE was not entirely excluded as CTA was
not done with PE protocal. However, cancer and PNA can explain
his oxygen requirement and anticoagulation treatment would be
risky given recent arterial access, embolization, and
hemoptysis. He generally requires 4-5L of oxygen to maintain
sats in the low 90s (has h/o hypercarbia and COPD) with
intermittent needs for facemask ventilation in the setting of
coughing fits. He was started on morphine 5mg po prn SOB. He
regularly self suctions. He also has a lot of anxiety which he
receives lorazepam 0.5mg po as needed. He is also on standing
tylenol to suppress fever.
.
# Goals of care: The patient wanted a second opinion from
oncology here at [**Hospital1 18**]. Oncology consult was called and his
previous oncology records were obtained from Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 87663**] and Dr. [**Name (NI) 88182**]. Oncology suggested a possible 3rd line of chemotherapy,
but the patient said that he would want to "get better" before
trying it. Palliative care was also consulted and his code
status was changed to DNR/DNI. The patient expressed his wishes
to die at home, but the family was not able to organize 24 hour
home care and preferred that the patient be discharged to a [**Hospital1 1501**]
to complete his IV antibiotics course before making a decision
about how to approach his care at home. He has a follow up
appointment with thoracic oncology on [**12-31**] at 10:30 to
discuss further chemo options. There were discussions abbout
home with hospice but that is not being implemented at this
time.
.
# Hemoptysis: The patient has stable hematocrit and is s/p
bronchial artery embolization. The procedure went very well, but
he desatted to the 80s after the procedure when he layed on his
right side as he was being transferred to the stretcher. His
desaturation improved on nonrebreather, resolved within hours
with weaning to nasal cannula, and was likely ssecondary to
mucous plugging. LENIs were checked and were negative for any
DVT. He only had minimal hemoptysis after the procedure and
once or twice in the week following. His heparin sc was stopped
and should remain off given risk of bleeding. HIS HCT did trend
down to 23 from 29 on admission and was 27 on discharged without
transfusion.
.
# Metastatic NSCLC: The patient is undergoing palliative
chemotherapy with Gemcitabine. Will hold on further chemo for
now pending oncology input. See goals of care section above.
.
# Hypothyroidism: Continued levothyroxine
.
# Hyperlipidemia: Continued statin
.
#. Constipation: Pt had constipation while here that he did not
report to us initially. He moved his bowels on senna, colace,
and miralax. He should be monitored for constipation.
.
# h/o Seizures secondary to brain injury: Continue home
phenytoin.
.
# Hypophosphatemia: He repeatedly had a low phos while in
hospital. He should have his phos monitored regularly.
.
#.Hyponatremia: Is SIADH also likely a hypovolemic component
given decreased pos.
Trend hyponatremia.
.
# Thrombocytosis: Likely secondary to suboptimally tx post
obstructive pneumonia
.
# Insomnia in setting of respiratory issues: Pt does well on
trazodone 25mg qhs.
.
# Code: DNR/DNI as outlined above

Brief Hospital Course:
Hospital Course: 88 yo M with CAD, AF on coumadin, CHF,
presenting with guaiac-positive stool, treated for GI bleed,
with 2 MICU admission for hypotension, now stable.
.
# GI bleed: After reversal of her INR with vitamin K the patient
underwent EGD, colonoscopy and capsule study. EGD showed an AVM
which was cauterized. The colonoscopy showed polyps which were
not removed. Capsule study showed nonbleeding red spots. The
decision was made for the patient not to restart
anticoagulation. He should have repeat colonoscopy and
enteroscopy as an out-patient. The patient's PCP, [**Last Name (NamePattern4) **]. [**Last Name (STitle) 1007**] will
help arrange for this.
.
#AFib: The patient was continued on digoxin. Metoprolol was held
during episodes of hypotesion but was restarted and tolerated
well. Anti-coagulation was defered to the out-patient setting.
.
#chronic systolic CHF: Initially the patient was slightly volume
overloaded (with crackles and pedal edema on exam). While NPO
the patient was diuresed and exam was euvolemic. As his
creatinine was then elevated, diuretics then stopped prior to
colonoscopy. After colonoscopy patient became septic so patient
was given fluids and became further volume overloaded. On
transfer to ICU, bumetanide, spironolactone, metoprolol,
lisinopril held. Digoxin was continued. On discharge the
patient was breathing comfotably and satting well on room air.
.
#Septic Shock: After colonoscopy/EGD/capsule study the patient
was febrile and hypotensive. This prompted an ICU transfer.
Blood cultures grew MRSA in [**4-14**] bottles in 12hrs. The source
felt to possibly be left lower extremity ulcer and/or right
wrist abscess. A TTE did not show valvular lesions to suggest
endocarditis. The patient was discharged to the floor without
the need for pressors in the ICU. The patient again had an
episode of low-grade hypotension prompting an ICU transfer.
However, the patient remained stable off pressors and was
transfered back to the floor. The patient was restarted on his
metoprolol and continued on his ACE-inhibitor without further
episodes of hypotension. The patient is to be continued on a 14
day course of vancomycin (day 1=[**4-29**]) for the bacteremia.
.
#CAD: The patient was continued on his statin. His aspirin was
held given the GI bleed. Re-addition of aspirin was deferred to
the out-patient setting. The patient's beta-blocker and ACE were
added back as his pressure tolerated, as above.
.
# Aspiration pneumonia: On the patient's second transfer to the
ICU as above an chest X-ray demonstrated a possible right sided
infiltrate. There was some question of aspiration at the time.
The patient was started on a ten day course of
levofloxacin/flagyl (day 1=[**5-4**]).
.
# rash: The patient was seen by derm and diagnosed with likely
miliaria rubra. He was started on a one week course of
triamcinolone. He was also found to have several actinic
keratoses on skin exam and was recommended to follow-up with
dermatology as an out-patient.
.
# BPH: The patient's flomax was held in the setting of
hypotension. Re-starting of the medication will be deferred to
the out-patient setting.
.
#Depression: The patient was continued on his home celexa.
.
#Hypothyroidism: The patient was continued on levothyroxine.
.
#Code: Full code, discussed with patient and family

Cytology:
Pleural fluid negative x3 for malignancy
CT guided bx positive for adenoca of lung
.
Imaging:
[**1-24**]: CT Abd: 1. Focal liver lesions with peripheral
enhancement, most likely representing hemangiomas.
2. 2 cm left adrenal nodule with enhancement, worrisome for
metastasis in this patient with lung mass. PET CT may help for
further staging.
3. Small free fluid in the lower pelvis.
.
[**1-23**]: CT chest: Chest CT [**2164-1-23**]: (1) Mass or mass-like
consolidation in two segments of the left upper lobe. (2) Small
left adrenal mass.
Extensive heterogeneity in liver texture. (3) Esophageal
distention, probably functional.
.
[**1-26**]: ECHO: 1.The left atrium is normal in size.
2. Left ventricular wall thicknesses are normal. The left
ventricular cavity size is normal. There is mild regional left
ventricular systolic dysfunction with mid septal hypokinesis.
Overall left ventricular systolic function is low normal (LVEF
50-55%).
3. Right ventricular chamber size is normal. Right ventricular
systolic
function is normal.
4.The aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened. No aortic
regurgitation is seen.
5.The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. No mitral
regurgitation is seen.
6.The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is normal.
7.There is no pericardial effusion.
.
CXR upon admission:
1. New left upper lobe consolidation occupying predominantly the
upper portion of the lobe in addition to known left upper
lobe/lingular consolidation/mass. These finding may represent
massive aspiration or hemorrhage
2. New retrocardiac left lower lobe atelectasis.
.
CXR upon discharge:
Tracheostomy tube and G-tube seen in relatively stable position.
Cardiac and mediastinal contours appear stable. There is
improved aeration of the left lung with persistent atelectasis
and consolidation with air bronchograms noted. Left-sided PICC
seen with the tip in the region of the cavoatrial junction.
IMPRESSION: Improved aeration in the left lung with persistent
atelectasis and consolidation
Brief Hospital Course:
61 yo former smoker admitted for workup of L lung mass after
presenting w/ c/o dysphagia, hemoptysis, and weight loss x 2
months, admitted to the ICU for acute SOB. Hospital course by
problem:
.
# Hypoxemic respiratory failure: Likely [**2-3**] mucus plugging of L
upper lung field complicated by ? postobstructive pneumonia.
Bronchoscopy was performed x4 each time with evidence of mucus
plugging and thick secretions. Sputum cultures did not,
however, yield growth in order to guide antibiotic coverage. He
was continued on zosyn and vancomycin x14 days then switched to
meropenem for 1 week to treat possible ESBLs. Following his 4th
bronchoscopy, he was tolerating trials of PS. Thereafter, we
placed a trach on [**2-8**] which he tolerated well. We aggressively
diuresed. On [**2-16**] he did very well on a trach collar and
remained off the vent for >24 consecutive hours. We recommend
continued lasix 40mg PO daily for approx 1-2 weeks as he was
quite volume overloaded during this admission.
.
# Adenoca of the lung: CT guided biopsy showed adenoca of the
lung. He had a negative head CT for mets but did have an
adrenal met noted on abdominal CT scan. He had pleural fluid
neg x3 for malignancy. We were unable to accurately stage him
without a PET scan. Given his poor respiratory status and
extensive disease burden, the heme/onc service did not feel that
he would benefit from surgical resection or high dose chemo. We
did however treat him for a 5 day course of chemoradiation to
help decrease the size of the mass in an attempt to assist with
weaning off the vent. This may have helped as he was
subsequently off the vent several days after therapy. The
family and patient are no longer interested in treating this
malignancy.
.
# Cards Vasc: In the setting of hypoxia and hemoptysis, the
patient had a troponin peak to 0.9. His CKs were negative. An
echo showed some mid-septal hypokinesis. It was thought that
this was a demand ischemic event and there were no further
issues during his hospitalization.
..
# Left pneumothorax: Patient had a PTX s/p CT guided biopsy. He
had a chest tube placed on the left. It remained in place for
approx one week. Thereafter the PTX resolved. He did undergo
VATS with pleurodesis on [**2-8**] given his signifant pleural
effusion.
.
# A fib: on [**2-10**], went into afib with rvr to 160s. BP stable.
- lopressor 37.5 tid achieved good rate control
.
# HTN- Consistently elevated BP, especially when he becomes
agitated.
-continue lopressor 37.5 tid,
-lorazepam 0.5 prn
.
# Hemodynamic instability: Originally he was hypotensive. This
appeared to be combination of sedation for intubation and
hypovolemia. He did, however, remain largely levophed
dependent. His BP would rise to >170s systolic with agitation.
However, for at least 10 days prior to discharge, his blood
pressure was well controlled on metoprolol 37.5 tid.
.
# FEN: A peg was placed on [**2-8**]. Tube feeds were started. He
tolerated these well.
.
# Anxiety: ambien and/or ativan prn
.
# Code: DNR per discussion with family. final discussion
revealed that patient is DNR but would be hooked up to
ventilator if in respiratory distress.
.

EKG ([**2133-3-7**]): Atrial fibrillation @ 108. Intraventricular
conduction delay with left axis deviation which is probably
atypical left bundle-branch block. ST-T wave abnormalities may
be secondary to intraventricular conduction delay
.
Imaging:
CXR ([**2133-3-4**]): 1. Stable mild congestive heart failure.
2. Possible left small pleural effusion versus pleural
thickening.
.
Renal ultrasound ([**2133-3-5**]):
1. No evidence of hydronephrosis. Slightly echogenic kidneys
consistent with chronic parenchymal disease.
2. Small amount of ascites.
.
Echocardiogram ([**2133-3-5**]):
1. The left atrium is moderately dilated. The right atrium is
moderately
dilated.
2. There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The
left ventricular
cavity is moderately dilated. There is severe global left
ventricular
hypokinesis. Overall left ventricular systolic function is
severely depressed.
3. The right ventricular cavity is dilated. There is severe
global right
ventricular free wall hypokinesis.
4. The aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened.
5. A bileaflet mitral valve prosthesis is present. Moderate [2+]
tricuspid
regurgitation is seen.
6. There is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension.
7. Compared with the findings of the prior study (images
reviewed) of
[**2132-9-1**], there has been no significant change.
.
CT head ([**2133-3-6**]): 1. Curvilinear hyperdensity bilaterally in
temporal horns of the ventricle, somewhat more prominent on the
left, probably representing calcified and prominent choroid,
given the absence of other abnormal density in the ventricle. In
this patient with anticoagulation, if the symptom persists or
worsens, please consider short-term followup by CT scan or MRI.
2. Sinusitis.
.
CXR: [**2133-3-7**]: IMPRESSION: Worsening patchy opacities at the lung
bases, most likely representing worsening atelectasis. Pneumonia
cannot be fully excluded
.
KUB ([**2133-3-7**]):
The air is identified throughout the small bowel and colon
probably indicating mild ileus. The pelvis is not completely
included in the radiograph. If clinically indicated, please
evaluate with repeated supine and erect AP radiographs of the
abdomen.
.
The patient has prior MVR and median sternotomy. Temporary pacer
wire is identified.
.
CXR ([**2133-3-10**]):
Tip of the right PIC catheter projects over the right
brachiocephalic vein at the level of the upper margin of the
manubrium. ET tube in standard placement. Nasogastric tube
passes below the diaphragm and out of view. Moderate
cardiomegaly stable. Pulmonary vascular engorgement is mild but
there is no pulmonary edema or appreciable pleural effusion.
Patient has had median sternotomy and mitral valve replacement.
.
Brief Hospital Course:
# GIB: 78 y.o. female with h/o gastric angioetasia, CHF with EF
= 15-20%, s/p MVR on coumadin p/w maroon red OGT output and
black stool with 10 point HCT drop and shortness of breath in
the setting of a supra-therapeutic INR. Pt was given FFP to
reverse coagulopathy. Initially given 4 units of blood with
increase in hct from 20 to 30. Most likely felt to be UGIB, with
initial ddx including AVM, ulcer, malignancy, gastritis. Pt was
intermittently hypotensive initially, so GI held off on EGD
given hypotension and risk of further BP drop with sedation. Pt
was then intubated for respiratory distress (see below). EGD was
performed on [**2133-3-9**] which showed gastric ulcer with evidence of
recent bleeding, clean based pyloric ulcer, and petechiae and
erosions in esophagus and stomach secondary to NG trauma. Most
likely source of bleeding is gastric ulcer. [**Hospital1 **] hct checks were
continued and pt was given an additional 2 units of blood for
slight drops in hct. Pt didn't have any further episodes of
bloody stool. Pt was initially maintained on IV bid protonix,
which was switched to po BID protonix after resolution of GIB.
Pt needs a repeat EGD in [**4-23**] weeks to document resolution of
gastric ulcer and for possible biopsy.
.
# DYSPNEA: On HD5 ([**3-8**]), pt was intubated secondary to
respiratory failure. Respiratory failure was felt to be likely
multifactorial [**12-18**] to COPD exacerbation and CHF. Sputum cx grew
Pseudomonas, but there was no evidence of pna on CXR. Pt was
treated for COPD with around the clock nebulizer treatments. She
received intermittent IV lasix for clinical evidence of volume
overload. Pt was successfully extubated on [**3-10**]. Pt was started
on IV solumedrol on [**3-11**] for wheezing and dyspnea. Pt will need
to transition to po steroid with a taper.
.
# HYPOTENSION: Pt was hypotensive on admission to MICU.
Hypotension was thought to be secondary to hypovolemia and
underlying severe CHF. Pt has a low BP at baseline. Pt was
afebrile without leukocytosis thus sepsis unlikely. She
initially responded to IVF and PRBC. However, she transiently
required pressors. Pt was initially on Levophed, but was noted
to have intermitten rapid AF (110-120s) and was switched to Neo
which was titrated off. BP meds were held. Pt's BP subsequently
stabilized.
.
# CHF - Pt has severe systolic dysfunction with EF <20%
(confirmed by TTE this admission). Pt diuresed with intermittent
IV lasix for CHF. Pt was started on digoxin for AF, which will
help with inotropy.
.
# A FIB: Pt has known afib. She is s/p DCCV at last admission.
Beta-blocker was held secondary to hypotension. Amiodarone was
held on admission, then restarted. Pt was started on digoxin in
the setting of rapid HR in 110-120s. Coumadin was initially
held. Pt was on heparin bridge.
.
# MVR: coumadin was initially held. Pt was maintained on heparin
gtt for goal PTT 60-80. Coumadin was restarted prior to
discharge: goal INR is 2.5-3.5.
.
# ARF: Pt's baseline cr is 1.4. Creatinine on admission was 3.9,
and decreased/stabilized at 2.5. The etiology of ARF is likely
ATN due to pre-renal state [**12-18**] GIB. FeNa=8.3% and FeBUN=37%,
c/w ATN. Renal U/S was negative for hydro. U eos negative. Pt
continued to have good UOP.
.
# HTN: Antihypertensives were held
.
# DM:Continued on RISS
.
# Hypercholesteremia - Gembibrozil held during admission
.
# UTI: Pt was found to have +UA on admission. Urine cx grew pan
sensitive proteus
Pt was treated with cipro for 5/7 days.
.
# Headache: Likely tension/migraine. Head CT [**3-6**] with likely
calcified choroid plexus on the left and sinusitis. given
tylenol prn.
.
# Pain: Pt c/o mild diffuse pain, requiring prn IV morphine. Pt
was started on fentanyl 25mcg qd.
.
# CODE status: Per discussion with pt's HCP, pt was made
DNR/DNI.

IMPRESSION:
1. Morphology of the liver is consistent with cirrhosis. Of
note, there is
partial clot within the main and right portal veins, with flow,
therefore this is non-occlusive. This does, however had the
appearance of recanalization. Additionally, there is no flow
within the posterior branch of the right portalvein which is
completely occluded with echogenic clot. The flow within the
main portal vein, left portal vein and anterior branch of the
right portalvein is hepatopetal.
2. Trace ascites, varices and splenomegaly, findings consistent
with portal
hypertension.
3. Hypodense lesion within the periphery of the spleen may
represent an
infarct, especially in the setting of clot within the portal
venous system.
However, other diagnostic considerations include a focal
hematoma in the
appropriate clinical setting of trauma. Of note, there is no
flow within thesplenic lesion.
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. [**Known lastname **] is a 52 yo woman with cirrhosis secondary to PBC and
autoimmune hepatitis who presented from home after routine labs
showed INR of 5.3. INR was 7.0 on admission. It did decrease
some with IV vitamin K. During her admission, a liver donor
became available and she accepted the donor liver offer. On
[**2193-3-15**], she underwent liver [**Date Range **] with aortic conduit.
Surgeon was Dr. [**First Name8 (NamePattern2) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) 816**]. Induction immunosuppression was given
(solumedrol and cellept). Please refer to operative notes for
further details. She was sent to the SICU immediately postop for
care. LFTs increased immediately postop, but trended down each
day. A liver duplex demonstrated patent vessels. Medial and
lateral JPs were non-bilious. She was extubated o [**3-16**] and
transferred out of the SICU after 3 days on [**3-17**].
Diet was slowly advanced and she was able to take in 1600
kcals/58 grams protein. She was assisted to get oob to ambulate
wearing her TLSO brace for known thoracic and lumbar compression
fractures. The medial JP was removed on [**3-20**] with a daily output
of 130cc. The lateral JP output remained high (1500 cc) and
serum sodium was low (down to 126)requiring IV saline fluid
replacements and albumin. This continued for several more days.
Serum sodium normalized and JP output decreased to 500cc/day by
postop day 12 ([**3-27**]). At this point, the lateral jp was removed
and site sutured. This site as well as the incision remained
dry.
She did well with medication teaching and insulin sliding scale
injection (due to hyperglycemia from steroids). An interpreter
was present for these sessions. Immunosuppression consisted of
cellcept 1gram [**Hospital1 **] that was well tolerated. Steroids were
tapered to 20mg daily and prograf was adjusted by trough levels.
Discharge dose was 3mg [**Hospital1 **].
She was discharged with low dose lasix daily for 2 + lower leg
edema to knees. VNA services were arranged for nursing, PT and
evaluation of home health services.

History of Present Illness:
Ms. [**Known lastname 1968**] is a 67 yo F with hx of stage IV pancreatic cancer
with peritoneal carcinomatosis, mets to liver, and palliative
abdominal port for drainage of malignant ascites, who presents
with nausea and vomiting. This morning at 1AM, Pt's daughter,
[**Name (NI) 7279**], called oncologist to state pt has been nauseated and
having multiple episodes of bilious non-bloody vomiting
throughout night. Daughter notes that she has been nauseated for
several days now, since Thursday. Has not taken anything by
mouth since then. No worsening abdominal pain, no fevers or
chills. She has been more fatigued per her daughter and has not
been getting out of bed much. She has had a recent bout with
thrush and endorses some paroxyms of throat pain and occasional
odynophagia but this is distinct from her newer sensation of
nausea/vomiting. She has noticed a new rash recently on her legs
and back, ever since using a lidocaine patch last week. This is
occasionaly itchy but not painful. She did contact her
oncologist who prescribed cephalexin for a possible cellulitis
but she has not taken any of this.
.
Of note, pt had recent admission [**Date range (1) 93970**] for abdominal pain
felt due to her worsening disease burden, and underwent
palliative abdominal pleurex catheter placement on [**12-7**]. Has
not used pleurex cath for ascites drainage yet, was shceudled to
do so today. She has had an ongoing problem with severe
constipation, being treated as an outpatient with magnesium
citrate (last BM 2 days ago on Saturday). She has not had any
further BMs or flatus since then.
.
In the ED, VS: 96.7 137/78 96 16 99% RA. Exam significant for
mild lower abd pain b/l lower quadrants, no CVAT, 1+ bilat
pitting edema. WBC returned elevated at 32 (95% neutrophils),
with hyponatremia to Na 118 and non-hemolyzed K of 6.4. EKG with
mild peaked T waves. She was given kayexalate, calcium, insulin,
and D50. KUB was non specific without overt bowel obstruction.
Abdominal CT scan showed large amount of ascites with catheter
in place, pancreatic mass with liver mets, and new peritoneal
infiltration, possible lymphatic involvement, with diffuse
omental caking and infiltrated mesentery. Thrombosis of left
portal vein also noted (stable). She was given Cipro/flagyl and
started on NS 150 cc/hr via her port, and was admitted to the
[**Hospital Unit Name 153**].
.
Currently, she is feeling better but still has some nausea. She
denies abdominal pain at the moment.

Brief Hospital Course:
[**Hospital Unit Name 13533**] [**Date range (1) 93972**]:
67F with stage 4 pancreatic cancer now p/w 4 days of nausea and
vomiting, inabaility to tolerate po, and fatigue, found to have
hyponatremia, hyerkalemia, and ARF. Each of the problems
addressed during this hospitalization are described in detail
below.
Nausea and vomiting - most likely etiology was believed to be
profound ileus from meds, carcinomatosis, vs incomplete SBO vs.
extrinsic compresison of mass into UGI tract. Despite recent
thrush, it did not appear to be a primary esophageal cause.
Other DDx includes peritonitis, primary or secondary, esp given
recent catheter placement and elevated WBC count. Has been
deemed an unacceptable risk for surgical palliation. The
patient was on sips/ clear liquids. Symptomatic control was
provided with ondansetron, compazine, ativan. Reglan was added
with symptomatic improvement. Pain control was achieved with
prn dilaudid and fentanyl patch. 2 liters of Peritoneal fluid
was drained and showed 2750 WBCs, 73% polys. The patient was
initially started on Cipro/Flagyl/Ceftriaxone for bacterial
peritonitis, but was switched to 2g daily Ceftriaxone for
treatment of SBP and Cipro/Flagyl were discontinued. Peritoneal
fluid Gram stain revealed 4+ PMNs, peritoneal fluid culture is
pending at the time of callout from [**Hospital Unit Name 153**]. Urine culture was
negative. Blood cultures are pending at this time. IR was
called to evaluate the Pleurex catheter.
Stage IV Pancreatic Cancer - has been on palliative chemo with
recent decision to move towards hospice care as an outpatient.
The patient was seen by her oncologist Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) **] during her
stay in [**Hospital Unit Name 153**]. Therapeutic drainage of ascites for comfort was
performed for comfort (on schedule M, W, F). 2 liters were
taken off on [**2181-12-12**].
Hyperkalemia - K 5.5 on admission. The patient received
calcium, kayexylate, insulin/D50 in ED. There were no EKG
changes. Hyperkalemia resolved by the time of callout from
[**Hospital Unit Name 153**].
Hyponatremia - The patient with chronic hyponatremia (Was 129 on
d/c on [**11-29**]).
Exaceration was believed to be due to a combination of
hypovolemia given n/v, ketonuria, urine SG, and ARF as well as
siADH. There were no evidence of MS changes or seizure activity.
Urine lytes were initially consistent with the picture of
hypovolemia. The patient was started on normal saline IVF,

of trials off up until day 47, [**2120-4-16**] at which time he
was extubated to room air. He has been stable without
increase in apnea and bradycardia spells. He was started on
caffeine citrate for management of apnea and bradycardia on
day of life one and continues on caffeine citrate currently
with good management. On average has one to three apnea
bradycardia spells per day.
Cardiovascular: Initially required normal saline boluses
times two and Dopamine at 7.5 micrograms per
kilogram per minute for management of hypotension. He weaned
off his Dopamine by 24 hours of age and has been
cardiovascularly stable throughout remainder of hospital
course with no history of a cardiac murmur.
Fluid and electrolytes: His birth weight was 1080. He was
initially started on 80 cc per kilo per day of D10W. He
required a D10 bolus on admission for hypoglycemia. He has
had no further issues with hypoglycemia. He started enteral
feedings on day of life number one, advanced to full enteral
feedings by day of life eight and has been stable on 150 cc
per kilogram per day, max of PE 30 with ProMod. He is
currently receiving 150 cc per kilogram per day of PE 26
demonstrating good weight gain. His discharge weight is
2055. His most recent nutrition laboratories were obtained
on [**2120-4-18**], sodium was 139, potassium 5.7, chloride
107, total CO2 26, BUN 14, creatinine .3 alkaline phosphatase
432, phosphorus 6.3.
Gastrointestinal: Initially was treated with phototherapy
for a peak bilirubin of 6.5/0.4 likely secondary to extensive
bruising from delivery process. He received double
phototherapy times three days, decreased single phototherapy
and phototherapy was discontinued on day of life eight with a
rebound bilirubin of 3.1/0.3. This issue has been resolved.
Hematology: Hematocrit on admission was 54.6. His most
recent hematocrit on [**2120-4-18**] was 30.8. He has not
required any blood transfusions during this hospital course.
Infectious disease: A CBC and blood culture was obtained on
admission. CBC was benign. The culture remained negative at
48 hours and Ampicillin and Gentamicin were discontinued. On
day of life five the infant increased with apnea and
bradycardia spells, had a temperature of 101. At that time a
CBC was obtained. CBC was benign. Blood cultures were
positive for staph aureus. The infant
was treated with Vancomycin and Gentamicin for a total of
three days and then changed to Penicillin and Oxacillin for a
total of a seven day course. Antibiotics were discontinued
on [**2120-3-23**] and he has not had any further issues
with sepsis during this hospital course.
Neurological: Head ultrasound was performed on day of life
one, four and 30 days all within normal limits. He is
appropriate for gestational age.
Sensory: Audiology has not been screened. Recommended prior
to discharge.
Ophthalmology: The patient was seen by ophthalmology on
[**2120-4-17**] revealing stage 1 zone 2 10 o'clock hours in
his right eye and 11 o'clock hours in his left eye with
recommended follow up in one week.
Psycho/social: A [**Hospital1 69**] social
worker has been involved with this family. Mom has
agoraphobia and visits infrequently. Dad visits on a fairly
frequent basis.
DISCHARGE CONDITION: Stable.
DISCHARGE DISPOSITION: To [**Hospital3 **] level two
facility. Name of primary pediatrician is in process. Mom
is trying to identify a pediatrician in the [**Hospital1 **]
system.
CARE AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Continue 150 cc per kilogram per
day of PE 26 calorie with iron and wean as appropriate.
Medications, continue caffeine citrate. Car seat
position screening has not been performed. State newborn
screens have been sent per protocol and have been within
normal limits. Immunizations received: he has not received
any immunizations. Immunizations recommended: hepatitis B
vaccine once consent obtained. Synagis RSV prophylaxis
should be considered from [**Month (only) 359**] through [**Month (only) 547**] for infants
who meet any of the following three criteria: born at less
then 32 weeks, born between 32 and 35 weeks with plans for
day care during RSV season, with a smoker in the household or
a preschool sibling or with chronic lung disease. Influenza
immunizations should be considered annually in the fall for
preterm infants with chronic lung disease once they reach
six months of age. Before this age the family and other care
givers should be considered for immunization against
influenza to protect the infant.
DISCHARGE DIAGNOSES:
1. Former 27 and [**5-20**] week twin B now 39 days old, 32 and 1/7
weeks gestation.
2. Status post respiratory distress syndrome treated with
Surfactant, rule out sepsis with antibiotics.
3. Hypoglycemia, transient.
4. Hypotension, transient.
5. Staph aureus bacteremia.
6. Hyperbilirubinemia, resolved.
7. Anemia of prematurity.
8. Apnea and bradycardia prematurity.

History of Present Illness:
Please see MICU note for full details, briefly 25 yo F w/ Hx of
severe HTN, diagnosed while pregnant (preeclampsia) who
presented on [**11-18**] with chest pain and hypotension. Patient
reports several episodes of N/V/D last weekend but improvement
of symptoms earlier this week. She states medication compliance
as prescribed (900mg labetalol [**Hospital1 **], 90mg nifedipine QD and HCTZ
25mg QD). Prior to presentation she had an episode of SSCP that
radiated down the L arm that was accompanied by dizziness. She
was found to be severely hypotensive and given 6L of NS, 2mg
glucagon X2 for BB overdose, 10mg dexamethasone, 1g calcium
gluconate for CCB overdose, 2g Mg in the ED. EKG--> TWI in III
and aVF (unchanged from prior). A TTE was done while she was
having active CP and this was normal with an EF of 70%. CTA-->
no PE or dissection. Abd U/S--> thickened gall bladder, could be
consistent w/ cardiac or liver disease. She remained
hypotensive, started on peripheral dopamine and admitted to the
MICU.
.
In the MICU, she remained on peripheral dopamine for only a few
hours and has been off pressors for >12hrs with SBP in the
120's. This am she developed acute onset SSCP that was similar
to the episode she had on presentation. She received 3 SLN and
her pain resolved. EKG--> TWI in III, aVF and V1, and TW
flattening in V5-V6 (only new finding). CE's were drawn
initially Trop - <0.01-->0.04-->0.16; CK - 166, 141, 168; MB -
2, 4, 6; likely representing an NSTEMI. Started on heparin gtt,
ASA and statin.
.
On review of systems, she denies any prior history of stroke,
TIA, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, bleeding at the
time of surgery, myalgias, cough, hemoptysis, black stools or
red stools. She denies recent fevers, chills or rigors. She
denies exertional buttock or calf pain. All of the other review
of systems were negative.
.
Cardiac review of systems is notable for absence of chest pain,
dyspnea on exertion, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, orthopnea,
syncope or presyncope.

Cardiology Report ECG Study Date of [**2105-11-18**] 2:18:56 PM
Sinus rhythm. Borderline prolonged/upper limits of normal QTc
interval. Low
T wave amplitude. Findings are non-specific but cannot exclude
drug/electrolyte/metabolic effect. Clinical correlation is
suggested. Since the
previous tracing of [**2105-8-9**] there is probably no significant
change.

COMPARISON: None.
FINDINGS: The lungs are clear without focal consolidation. No
appreciable
pleural effusion or evidence of pneumothorax is seen. The carina
is
relatively splayed with relative underlying increased density,
which may be
due to an enlarged left atrium. The cardiac silhouette is
borderline in size,
which may be accentuated by supine, AP technique.
IMPRESSION:
1. Clear lungs.
2. Possible left atrial enlargement.
3. Borderline cardiac silhouette size, which is likely
accentuated by AP
technique and supine position.
Radiology Report CT PELVIS W/CONTRAST Study Date of [**2105-11-18**]
3:14 PM
CT CHEST WITHOUT AND WITH IV CONTRAST: The pulmonary arterial
tree is well
opacified, and there is no pulmonary embolus. The thoracic aorta
is normal in
caliber without dissection, pseudoaneurysm, intramural hematoma
or other acute
abnormality. The great vessels are unremarkable. The heart size
is normal
without pericardial effusion. There is a 1 cm soft tissue
density in the
right hilus, likely reactive lymph node. In the right axilla,
several
prominent lymph nodes measure up to 1 cm in short axis,
demonstrating a normal
configuration with normal fatty hila. Normal appearing left
axillary lymph
nodes are also present. In anterior mediastinum, there is soft
tissue density
material which may be due to residual thymic tissue.
Lungs demonstrate mild dependent atelectasis bilaterally,
without
consolidation or pleural effusion. There is prominence of septal
markings
suggesting fluid overload and mild pulmonary edema. The
tracheobronchial tree
is patent to subsegmental levels.
CT ABDOMEN WITH IV CONTRAST: Assessment of solid organs is
limited given the
arterial phase of the exam, tailored for evaluation of the
aorta. The
abdominal aorta is normal in caliber, without dissection,
pseudoaneurysm, or
other acute abnormality. The major branches are patent.
Incidentally noted
is an accessory right renal artery.
The liver demonstrates increased hypodense material surrounding
the vascular
structures at the porta hepatis and extending towards the
periphery. This
could represent periportal edema, or could indicate periductal
soft tissue
material. At the liver dome (3:81), there is a suggestion of a
6-mm
arterially enhancing focus, although this area is obscured by
metallic
artifact from an object external to the patient. A small amount
of
perihepatic fluid is noted adjacent to the diaphragm.
The gallbladder demonstrates a markedly thickened, hypodense
wall, with
intermediate density intraluminal contents. This pronounced
gallbladder wall
edema is more severe than usually seen in the setting of rapid
rehydration.
Alternatively, this could be seen in gallbladder outlet
obstruction or soft
tissue infiltration of the gallbladder wall. The pancreas
appears slightly
enlarged, although the pancreatic parenchyma enhances uniformly.
There is no
pancreatic ductal dilatation. Surrounding the pancreas, there is
fluid or
soft tissue density material and a mild amount of mesenteric
stranding.
The spleen, adrenal glands, stomach, and duodenum are
unremarkable. The
kidneys are unremarkable without hydronephrosis, stones, or
worrisome renal
masses. Assessment of the mesentery is limited given the
relative lack of
mesenteric fat, but there may be some mesenteric edema. There is
no free air
in the upper abdomen.
CT PELVIS WITH IV CONTRAST: Loops of large and small bowel are
unremarkable.
The appendix is normal. The uterus demonstrates a large
exophytic fibroid
extending off the left fundus. There is no intrauterine device
or vaginal
foreign body seen. The urinary bladder is collapsed around a
Foley catheter,
with small amount of air. There is no free fluid in the pelvis.
There is no
pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy by size criteria.
OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: There is no fracture or worrisome bony
lesion.
IMPRESSION:
1. No pulmonary embolus or acute aortic abnormality. No aortic
dissection in
the chest or abdomen.
2. Small amount of fluid along the superior margin of the liver,
surrounding
the pancreas, and gallbladder wall thickening versus edema, and
likely
periportal edema. These findings may be due to rapid
rehydration, but given
the phase of imaging, other etiologies cannot be ruled out.
Serum lipase was
normal making pancreatitis unlikely. This can be further
evaluated with a
non-emergent right upper quadrant ultrasound to evaluate the
gallbladder wall
and for perihepatic lymphadenopathy.
3. Anterior mediastinal soft tissue, most likely consistent with
thymic
tissue, although other mediastinal mass (ie lymphoma) can not be
entirely
excluded. Consider further evaluation with MRI.
4. Mild pulmonary edema.
5. Possible 6mm enhancing hepatic lesion near the hepatic dome.
This can be
further evaluated with nonemergent ultrasound or MRI.

foreign body seen. The urinary bladder is collapsed around a
Foley catheter,
with small amount of air. There is no free fluid in the pelvis.
There is no
pelvic or inguinal lymphadenopathy by size criteria.
OSSEOUS STRUCTURES: There is no fracture or worrisome bony
lesion.
IMPRESSION:
1. No pulmonary embolus or acute aortic abnormality. No aortic
dissection in
the chest or abdomen.
2. Small amount of fluid along the superior margin of the liver,
surrounding
the pancreas, and gallbladder wall thickening versus edema, and
likely
periportal edema. These findings may be due to rapid
rehydration, but given
the phase of imaging, other etiologies cannot be ruled out.
Serum lipase was
normal making pancreatitis unlikely. This can be further
evaluated with a
non-emergent right upper quadrant ultrasound to evaluate the
gallbladder wall
and for perihepatic lymphadenopathy.
3. Anterior mediastinal soft tissue, most likely consistent with
thymic
tissue, although other mediastinal mass (ie lymphoma) can not be
entirely
excluded. Consider further evaluation with MRI.
4. Mild pulmonary edema.
5. Possible 6mm enhancing hepatic lesion near the hepatic dome.
This can be
further evaluated with nonemergent ultrasound or MRI.
Radiology Report LIVER OR GALLBLADDER US (SINGLE ORGAN) PORT
Study Date of [**2105-11-18**] 6:43 PM
COMPARISON: CT torso obtained approximately four hours earlier.
RIGHT UPPER QUADRANT ULTRASOUND: The liver is normal in
echotexture without
focal abnormalities. There is a small amount of perihepatic
fluid. In the
right upper quadrant, incidentally noted is a tiny right pleural
effusion.
There is no intra- or extra-hepatic biliary ductal dilatation.
The common
duct measures 4 mm. The main portal vein demonstrates normal
hepatopetal
flow.
The gallbladder is not distended, but demonstrates marked
gallbladder wall
edema. The wall measures approximately 1.6 cm. There is no
echogenic debris
are gallstones within the gallbladder. There is no
pericholecystic fluid.
The spleen is normal in size. There is a small amount of
abdominal fluid
tracking around the spleen. Additionally, there is a small left
pleural
effusion. Views of the abdominal midline are limited due to
overlying bowel
gas.
IMPRESSION:
1. Pronounced gallbladder wall edema, without evidence of acute
cholecystitis. This can be seen in the setting of underlying
liver or heart
disease. This can also be seen in aggressive rehydration,
although this
degree of wall edema is somewhat unusual.
2. Trace ascites tracking around the liver and spleen. This may
also be
related to rehydration.
3. Interval development of small bilateral pleural effusions.

FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
1. Coronary arteries are normal.
Brief Hospital Course:
# CORONARIES: Patient presented with chest pain and hypotension.
She was initially admitted to the MICU as her BP remained low
after treatment for BP med overdose and 6 L IVF. Urine and serum
toxicology tests (-). In the MICU she was transiently on
dopamine but this was discontinued after only a few hours. She
has no hx of CAD only risk factors are HTN and family histroy.
Given her age, it was thought that it was unlikely NSTEMI but
given the (+) troponins, that peaked at 0.16, and her multiple
episodes of chest pain a cardaic catheterization was done. Cath
showed normal vessels. A lipid profile was done and found to be
WNL. Oncer her BP strarted to trend up she was re-started on
labetalol and HCTZ. Hypercoagulability testing was ordered prior
to discharge. Some of these results are back today and are (-),
others should be followed up. TSH was WNL.
.
# Hypotension: Patient presented with severe hypotension (SBP
60s-70s) thought to be due to excessive BP med dosing and recent
viral illness causing dehydration. This resolved after
aggressive IV hydration, BP med overdose treatment and brief
treatment with dopamine. Details as above.
.
# PUMP: Patient with no hx of cardiac abnormalities, TTE--> nl.
study with EF of 70%. Not fluid overloaded per exam. BNP WNL.
.
# RHYTHM: Patient in NSR, with no hx of arrhythmias.
.
# Anion gap: Patient with anion gap (16) acidosis, on transfer
from MICU. This resolved without intervention. Lactate was WNL.
.
# G6PD deficiency: Patient states she was told she had this
disease during childhood. No records in system. G6PD testing was
WNL in [**2096**].
.
# Pericholecystic fluid/peripancreatic fluid: This was found on
ED CT abd/pel. Surgery was consulted and concluded that this did
not represent infection/bleeding given stable Hct and completely
normal LFTs/lipase. A RUQ U/S was done which showed same finding
as before and this was thought to be due to aggresive
rehydration. Patient might benefit from reapeat RUQ U/S to
assess for resolution.
.
# Asthma: Stable, asymptomatic.
.
# Anemia: Patient was found to have Hct of 31 on admission. This
trended up throughout admission into the mid-30s range and
remained stable. Iron studies, B12/folate levels WNL.

Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted to the [**Hospital1 18**] because you were having dizziness
and chest pain. In the ED you were found to have very low blood
pressure that was thought to be due to dehydration, because of
your previous stomach sickness, and because of too many blood
pressure mediations. You had chest pain again while in the
hospital and your blood test showed your heart was not getting
enough blood during this episode. You underwent cardiac
catheterization which was normal.

Chief Complaint:
shortness of breath and chest pain
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
none
History of Present Illness:
85 year old man with CAD, chronic systolic CHF EF40%, HTN, HLD,
CKD, peripheral vascular disease, presents with shortness of
breath and chest pain. Pt states that two days ago he developed
some CP pain and sob. He took ntg with resolution of CP, however
the sob got progressively worse. He felt that he had a "lack of
O2", and also that there was "fluid on his lungs". He denies
n/v/diaphoresis but did have some coughing with "pinkish
phlegm". He denies acute onset but states rather that the SOB
progressed over night, worse with exertion and laying flat. He
also notes some increased LE edema. He denies f/c/n/v. He also
notes that 2wks ago he had flu like symptoms and since then has
been feeling generally unwell.
.
In the ED, initial vitals were 97.7 78 136/86 18 100% RA. Labs
significant for trop 2.13, Na 129, Cr 1.9, K 5.7, Hct 32.8, INR
1.1. CXR showed bilateral pulmonary edema. ECG showed NSR at
75bpm, borderline left axis, q waves V1-V3 and III and avF, t
wave inversion avL, no other ST/T changes. He was given 20mg IV
lasix. Most recent vitals prior to transfer:
.
On arrival to the floor, patient was seen with the nurse who
speaks Russian. The patient states that approximately 7-10 days
ago, he started developing shortness of breath and fatigue on
exertion. He states that around the same time, he developed a
cold that involved sinus congestion and a cough and a cold sore
on his lip. The patient states that his shortness of breath got
progressively worse as the days passed. He states that he has
also gained approx 9 pounds and now weighs 209 pounds, since
these symptoms began. He also states that approx 3 days ago, he
developed chest pain. He states that the pain did not radiate
anymore. He states that the pain resolved after 2-3 hours when
he took 2 sublingual nitroglycerin tabs. He denies any nausea,
vomiting, GI upset, changes in stools, or any other symptoms
with the chest pain. The patient states that he was seen as an
outpatient approx 10 days ago and had an EKG and an ECHO done.
THe patient now presented with concerns with his worsening
shortness of breath.
.
On the floor, he was initially treated with heparin drip for
NSTEMI, but then dced. He was started on a lasix drip for CHF.
Down 1.5L at 5pm, pressures tending down from SBP 160s/90s to
100s/40s, then 70s-80s/30s-40s. Flipped into Afib with RVR
today at 11pm. PMH of Afib on one occasion following epistaxis
in [**2173**]. He got 2.5 Metoprolol, BP trended down, now high
60s/70s. Got 500cc bolus, considering amiodarone, but decided
to transfer to CCU for further management.
.
Currently, he is alert and orientated x 3, denies any chest
pain, headache, dizziness, palpitations, dyspnea. BP improved
to high 80s/60, remains tachycardic around 120s. He was given 5
mg IV metoprolol, but remained tachycardic, and dropped BP to
70s systolic, MAP around 55.

IMAGING:
CXR [**2175-1-29**]
FINDINGS: Frontal and lateral views of the chest were obtained.
Low lung
volumes limit evaluation. There are bilateral pulmonary
opacities which are most confluent in the lung bases. Central
pulmonary hilar engorgement with interstitial and alveolar edema
is present. Bilateral pleural effusions are small to moderate.
No pneumothorax. Heart size appears enlarged though poorly
assessed. Mediastinal contour is stable with atherosclerotic
calcification along the aortic knob. Bony structures are intact.
IMPRESSION: Findings compatible with pulmonary edema/heart
failure.
Small-to-moderate bilateral pleural effusions also present.
.
CXR: [**2175-2-2**]
FINDINGS: As compared to the previous radiograph, there is a
decrease in
extent of the bilateral pleural effusions. Sequence decrease in
severity of the basal areas of atelectasis. Unchanged moderate
cardiomegaly, currently without evidence of pulmonary edema.
.
KUB [**2175-2-4**]
ABDOMEN, SUPINE
The distribution of gas in the abdomen is unremarkable. No
edematous areas of bowel are seen. There is no evidence of
obstruction or infarction. Vascular calcification is noted.
.
EKG on admission [**2175-1-29**]: Rate 133, atrial fibrillation with
RVR, occasional PVCs, normal/borderline left axis deviation., LV
hyprtrophy. normal rhythm, normal/borderline left axis, Q waves
in III, V2-V4. ST segments depressed in I, AVL, V6 but unchaged
from prior EKG.
.
ECHO [**2175-1-2**]: The left atrium is mildly dilated. The right
atrium is moderately dilated. The left ventricular cavity is
moderately dilated. There is mild to moderate regional left
ventricular systolic dysfunction with inferolateral akinesis,
inferior akinesis/hypokinesis and apical hypokinesis. 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 1.0-1.2cm2). Trace
aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are
mildly thickened. Moderate to severe (3+) mitral regurgitation
is seen. The tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened.
There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. There
is no pericardial effusion.
On color Doppler imaging, there is an interatrial shunt
consistent with stretched PFO or an atrial septal defect.
(Images of the interatrial septum were suboptimal in the prior
study).
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [**2174-7-4**],
the mid anterolateral wall now appears more hypokinetic and the
anterior apex is now hypokinetic (may have been foreshortened in
the prior study). The aortic valve gradient is similar.
Estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is now higher.
.
CARDIAC CATH: [**4-/2173**]:
COMMENTS:
1. Selective coronary angiography in this right dominant system
demonstrated severe three vessel disease. The LMCA had mild
disease. The LAD had a 90% occlusion before S1 with filling of a
small, diffusely diseased distal vessel via septal collaterals
that was unchanged from [**2169**]. The LCx had four widely patent
stents with no significant disease in the large major marginal.
The very small marginals before the major marginal and AV Cx
were occluded which was also unchanged from [**2169**]. The RCA was
known occluded and was not injected; the distal vessel fills via
septal collaterals.
2. Limited resting hemodynamics revealed moderate systemic
hypertension with SBP of 162 mm Hg and DBP of 76 mm Hg.
FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
1. Three vessel coronary artery disease with patent LCx stents,
unchanged from [**2169**].
2. NSTEMI related to collateral insufficiency during rapid
atrial
fibrillation.
.
ECHO [**2175-1-31**]
The left atrium is moderately dilated. Color-flow imaging of the
interatrial septum raises the suspicion of an atrial septal
defect, but this could not be confirmed on the basis of this
study. The estimated right atrial pressure is at least 15 mmHg.
There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The left
ventricular cavity size is normal. There is severe regional left
ventricular systolic dysfunction with inferior akinesis,
inferolateral akinesis/hypokinesis, anteroseptal
hypokinesis/akinesis and apical akinesis. No left ventricular
thrombus identified but cannot exclude. [Intrinsic left
ventricular systolic function is likely more depressed given the
severity of valvular regurgitation.] There is no ventricular
septal defect. The remaining left ventricular segments contract
normally. Right ventricular chamber size is normal with moderate
global free wall hypokinesis. The aortic valve leaflets are
severely thickened/deformed. There is moderate aortic valve
stenosis (valve area 1.0-1.2cm2). Trace aortic regurgitation is
seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. Moderate
to severe (3+) mitral regurgitation is seen. Moderate to severe
[3+] tricuspid regurgitation is seen. The pulmonary artery
systolic pressure could not be determined. There is an anterior
space which most likely represents a prominent fat pad.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [**2175-1-2**],
left ventricular systolic function is now worse. Right
ventricular systolic function is now worse. Tricuspid
regurgitation is now more prominent.
Brief Hospital Course:
85 year old gentleman with extensive cardiac history including
BMS, CAD, CHF (EF40%), moderate AS 1.0-1.2, 3+ MR, CKD, HTN, HL,
presents with 7-10 days of worsening SOB, edema in legs b/l,
increased weight. These symptoms began with a URI at the same
time. Had one episode of chest pain that resolved with sl nitro.
Pt found to be in Afib with RVR.
.
# Chronic congestive heart failure with acute exacerbation:
patient had increasing weight and pitting edema in lower
extremities and increased shortness of breath prior to
admission. These symptoms began with "URI symptoms" and one
episode of chest pain that was likely a cardiac event. The
patient takes 10 mg lasix daily at home. Was diuresed 2L on
admission to floor but given back almost 1L in response to
hypotension after developing afib/RVR. Lasix was held at that
time. ECHO [**2175-1-31**] revealed severe AS valve area 1.0-1.2cm2 with
3+ mitral and tricuspid regurg and EF of 20%.
.
# abdominal distension and pain with elevated lactate - unclear
etiology however on [**2175-2-4**] pt developed abdominal pain and
distension which progressively worsened, KUB without evidence of
obvious pathology. Suspicion for volvulus or some other
intra-abdominal process causing ischemia. Pt developed worsening
hypotension. Pt had been otherwise improving from a
cardiovascular standpoint. Pt declined any surgical intervention
and was made CMO. Pt [**Date Range **] on [**2175-2-4**].
.
# Atrial Fibrillation with RVR: Pt was initially admitted to
[**Hospital1 **]. On day of admission he flipped into AFib around 11pm, with
decreased BP to 70s systolic. Was given 2.5 mg metoprolol with
no improvement in HR, worsening BP. Patient has history of
paroxysmal A-fib. Was given 5mg metoprolol with BP drop to MAP
of 50 and minimal improvement in rate. Amiodarone was started
for rate/rhythm control. Cardioversion was attempted x3 200,
300, 300 - unsuccessful. Pt received ketamine and versed during
cardivoersion ettempt with further hypotension after shocks see
hypotension below. The afternoon after cardioversion on [**2175-1-31**]
pt spontaneously converted to sinus rhythm. He went back into
afib on [**2175-2-1**] until he received IV metoprolol for an episode
of ventricular tachycardia, see below, at which point he
converted back to sinus with frequent ectopy. Infectious
processes were ruled out as pt had no growth on blood and urine
cultures and without evidence of localized infiltrate on CXR.
.
#ventricular tachycardia - on [**2175-2-2**] pt was in Afib but had
roughly 3 minutes of ventricular tachycardia - this was
asymptomatic and pt remained stable with slight decrease in
blood pressure, maintained on pressors see hypotension below. Pt
had no further episodes of sustained VT.
.
# Hypotension: In the setting of 2L diuresis on admission and
recurrence of afib with RVR. Lowest MAPs were in the 50s
immediately after metoprolol, but MAP generally around 60. Held
home antihypertensives (isosorbide, metoprolol, lisinopril,
lasix). Cardioversion was attempted, unsucessful as above but
followed by further hypotension Maps in the 50s. Pt was started
on neosynephrine for MAPs consistently below 55. PICC was placed
on [**2175-2-1**].
.
# Acute on Chronic Renal Failure: baseline creatinine is
1.3-1.5. He presented with creatinine of 1.9, creatinine trended
up to peak at 2.4. Likely pre-renal given severe AS and severe
MR. Pt then required pressors for 48 hours which was felt to be
responsible as well. Pt was diuresed successfully and creatinine
remained stable at roughly 2.0
.
# Elevated troponins - likely MI. patient had one episode of
chest pain that resolved with 2 SL nitroglycerin tabs. Patient
has extensive cardiac history. Was found to have elevated
cardiac enzymes in ED. Patient denies any other symptoms with
chest pain including acute SOB, sweating, nausea, vomiting.
Patient's EKG shows some changes since a year ago, but mainly q
waves. The heart axis is more leftward than a year ago. It was
suspected that pt had experienced an MI which explained the
troponin bump and symptoms.
.
# Hypertension: history of hypertension. Held home
antihypertensives in the setting of hypotension. Is on
lisinopril, isosorbide, lasix at home.
.
# Hypercholesterolemia: started atorvastatin 80 (on simva 80 at
home).

on pressors. The patient was in respiratory distress and
hypoxia. The patient was started on levaquin/vanco/cefipime for
nosocomial pneumonia. Pressors were weaned off and patient was
transferred to the floor after gentle diuresis. Within one day,
the patient was again hypoxic and hypotensive and was
transferred to the [**Hospital Unit Name 153**]. At this time, after discussion with
her daughter, her health care proxy, the patient was made "CMO"
(comfort measures only) and a morphine drip was started. At

Allergies:
Patient recorded as having No Known Allergies to Drugs
Attending:[**First Name3 (LF) 3984**]
Chief Complaint:
dyspnea, hoarseness, and cough
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
Bronchoscopy x2
Tracheal Y-stent placement [**2172-8-25**]
Pigtail catheter placement (right) [**2172-8-25**] for pleural effusion
Intubation [**2172-8-25**], re-intubated [**2172-8-26**] after attempted
extubation
Chest tube placement (right) [**2172-8-26**] for pneumothorax
Radiation therapy x2
Chemotherapy x3days
Lumbar puncture [**2172-9-3**]
History of Present Illness:
58 year-old female, 60 pack-year smoker, with dyspnea,
hoarseness, and cough x1 month admitted to [**Hospital1 18**] SICU [**2172-8-25**]
after found to have large mediastinal mass, today found to be
poorly-differentiated carcinoma, suspected small cell. On
initial evaluation, patient was found to have 3mm opening of
distal trachea secondary to external compression from
mediastinal mass, RUL mass, RUL collapse, and clinical findings
consistent with SVC sydrome. Y-stent was placed that evening, in
addition to Pigtail catheter for right-sided effusion. Patient
remained intubated following surgery, on paralytics due to
low-lying ET tube and small volume bleeding after endobronchial
biopsy. On [**2172-8-26**], extubated was attempted. Patient was
reintubated within 10 minutes due to neurological
unresponsiveness, hypoxia (O2 saturation 80s), and hemodynamic
instability. She was found to have a right pneumothorax, which
improved with subsequent placement of chest tube. Patient was
also noted to have pericardial effusion; given absence of
physiologic tamponade, cardiology decided against
pericardiocentesis.
.
Hospital course also complicated by hyponatremia on admission
(Na 118) attributed to SIADH and improved with fluid restriction
(Na 126). Also with hypotension (sBP 90s) following reintubation
on [**2172-8-26**]. Given hyperkalemia, hyponatremia adrenal
insufficiency was suspected; evaluated by endocrine team who
recommended stress dose steroids pending further evaluation of
etiology of hypotension. Also with non-anion gap metabolic
acidosis, transient hypothermia (T 95 [**2172-8-26**]) of unknown
etiology.
.
Per report, patient has done well today. She remains intubated,
on pressure support. Given the above pathology results, patient
is transferred to the medical ICU ([**Hospital Ward Name 332**]) for radiation
therapy.
.
On arrival to the [**Hospital 332**] medical ICU, patient is intubated,
sedated, and unable to provide history.

.
Imaging:
[**8-25**] CT Chest without contrast:
1. Large mediastinal mass causes narrowing of the right
pulmonary artery, superior vena cava, and trachea and occlusion
of the pulmonary artery supplying the right upper lobe in
addition to the right upper lobe bronchus. These findings are
most concerning for a primary lung carcinoma.
2. Right upper lobe collapse with nonenhancing lung parenchyma.
Tumor involvement cannot be excluded. Atelectasis of the right
lower and middle lobe.
3. Large right pleural effusion.
.
[**8-25**] Tracheal mass tissue pathology:
Immunohistochemical studies show that tumor cells are positively
stained by TTF-1 and CK7; they are negative for CK20,
chromogranin, and synaptophysin. The tumor shows areas of
necrosis, extensive apoptosis and focal lymphatic vascular
invasion; some areas the tumor cell size approaching that of a
small cell carcinoma, but much of the tumor has larger nuclei.
Overall, the tumor probably fits into the spectrum of a small
cell carcinoma of lung.
.
[**8-26**] Pleural fluid cytology:
Rare groups of epithelioid cells, too few to characterize
further. By immunohistochemistry: mesothelial cells stain for
calretinin and WT-1. Epithelial markers [**Last Name (un) **]-31, CEA, and B72.3
are negative. Rare cells are highlighted by TTF-1; however,
these cells are not cytologically atypical and may represent
non-specific reactivity.
.
[**8-26**] EKG: Sinus tachycardia. Low QRS voltage in limb leads. No
previous tracing available for comparison.
.
[**8-26**] Echo:
The left atrium and right atrium are normal in cavity size.
There is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal
cavity size and regional/global systolic function (LVEF>55%).
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 regurgitation. The mitral
valve appears structurally normal with trivial mitral
regurgitation. There is a small to moderate sized, primarily
anterior pericardial effusion without right ventricular
diastolic collapse. IMPRESSION: Suboptimal image quality.
Mild-moderate, primarily anterior pericardial effusion. Mild
symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with preserved global and
regional biventricular systolic function.
If clinically indicated, a follow-up study is suggested.
.
[**8-27**] CT chest/abdomen/pelvis with and without contrast:
1. Vascular findings unchanged from [**2172-8-25**]. Narrowing of SVC
and left
brachiocephalic vein by large mediastinal mass. The SVC is
narrowed to
approximately 5 mm over a region extending 3 cm in craniocaudal
dimension.
Indirect evidence of right brachiocephalic vein occlusion,
likely complete. Unchanged narrowing of right pulmonary artery.
Splayed but patent aortic arch branches.
2. Interval decrease in large right pleural effusion, with small
anterior
pneumothorax. Right chest tube terminating at apex.
3. No interval change in large infiltrative hypoattenuating
right
hilar/mediastinal mass.
4. No evidence of metastases in the abdomen or pelvis. Slightly
bulky left
adrenal gland without discrete nodule or mass.
5. Anasarca and small amount of peritoneal fluid collecting in
the pelvis,
likely related to edema.
6. Interval tracheal stenting with improved caliber of airway.
.
[**2172-8-27**] ECHO: Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of
[**2172-8-26**], the size of the pericardial effusion is unchanged
with no signs of tamponade. The left ventricle seems to be
underfilled.
.
[**8-28**] CT Head:
1. Within limits of this modality, no evidence of enhancing mass
or edema to suggest metastatic disease.
2. Status post bilateral frontal craniotomy and probable
aneurysm clipping
with encephalomalacic changes in the right frontotemporal and
left temporal lobes. No evidence of acute hemorrhage or infarct.
3. Probable chronic bifrontal subdural hygromas with minimal
mass effect on the subjacent frontal gyri; these may relate to
the extensive remote surgery
.
[**2172-9-2**] CT Head (performed due to worsened mental status):
1. Unchanged examination from recent exam of [**2172-8-28**].
2. Status post bilateral frontal craniotomies with aneurysm
clipping and
encephalomalcia, as described above. No evidence of acute
hemorrhage or
infarct.
.
[**2172-9-3**] Renal US:
1. Mildly echogenic kidneys consistent with medical renal
disease. There is no evidence of hydronephrosis, stone, or mass.
2. The left kidney remains atrophic and lobulated, similar to
[**2172-8-27**].
.
[**2172-9-4**] CT Chest w/o contrast (to evaluate tumor s/p XRT and
chemo for future XRT sessions):
1. Right anterior pneumothorax has resolved.
2. Mixed response of the tumor to radiotherapy with a decrease
of the central component of the tumor and a mixed response of
the peripheral tumor components:
3. The peripheral consolidations in the right upper lobe have
overall
decreased in size, however, a new cavitary lesion has formed
measuring 11 x 19 mm.
4. The peripheral consolidations in the right lower lobe and
left lower lobe have increased in size, number and density and
may be part of post-
obstructive, post-radiotherapy, post-infectious, or acute
inflammatory
changes.
5. Lymphangio-carcinomatosis in the right upper lobe.
6. There is new small right pleural effusion and increased
moderate left
pleural effusion.
7. Left adrenal gland mass is only partially visualized in this
study.
.
[**2172-9-3**] EEG: Markedly abnormal portable EEG due to the very
disorganized and slow background rhythms. This suggests a
widespread and moderately severe encephalopathy in both cortical
and subcortical structures. Medications, metabolic disturbances,
and infection are among the most common causes. Although there
were fleeting asymmetries, there was no reliable area of focal
slowing. Encephalopathies may obscure focal findings. There are
some sharp features, but no clearly epileptiform abnormalities
and no electrographic seizures.

Brief Hospital Course:
[**Hospital Unit Name 153**] Course [**Date range (3) 84902**]
58F with likely small cell carcinoma complicated by SVC
syndrome, airway compromise requiring Y-stent, pericardial
effusion, resolved pleural effusion and pneumothorax, and
electrolytes disturbances admitted to [**Hospital Unit Name 153**] for radiation
decompression therapy and chemotherapy. Pt developed respiratory
failure and renal failure.
.
#. Hypoxic respiratory failure: Pt was initially transferred
from SICU to [**Hospital Unit Name 153**] on CPAP/PS. She developed increasing
respiratory failure and was changed to AC mode. In the [**Hospital Unit Name 153**],
she underwent XRT x2 and then chemotherapy for 3 days. Increased
hypoxia may have been due to pneumothorax, which resolved,
pleural effusions, atelectasis, possible VAP, tumor compression.
During hypoxic episodes, pt underwent bronchoscopy twice, both
times of which demonstrated the ETT lodged between tracheal wall
and stent. Pt's saturation improved with repositioning.
Respiratory status also complicated by possible underlying COPD
given smoking history with possible air stacking/trapping. Pt
was started on vancomycin, cefepime and ciprofloxacin (started
[**2172-8-31**] for 8 day course) for VAP. Vanco was later held as the
level was elevated in the setting of renal failure. Patient's
family decided to persue comfort only care on [**2172-9-6**], and she
was terminally extubated. Patient expired 15 minutes later from
respiratory failure and asystole secondary to lung cancer.
.
# Altered Mental Status: Pt had decline in mental status over
time. She initially withdrew from noxious stimuli but later was
less responsive. AMS continued despite sedation being off. AMS
most likely due to toxic metabolic syndrome in setting of uremia
and multi-system organ failure. Differential also included
seizure (given hx of cerebral aneurysm repair, on
anti-epileptics presumably prophylactically) although EEG did
not demonstrate focal abnormalities. LP did not demonstrate
infection or spread of malignancy. CT head [**2172-9-2**] negative for
acute process.
.
#. Small cell lung carcinoma: per pathology, the tumor probably
fits into the spectrum of a small cell carcinoma of lung. Given
associated SVC syndrome, prognosis poor. CT head/[**Last Name (un) 103**]/pelvis
negative for metastases. Pt underwent 3 days of chemotherapy
and 2 sessions of XRT. Initially, XRT was clinical emergency -
normal and pathologic tissue was likely treated; necrotic tissue
noted on bronchoscopy [**2172-9-4**]. Pt was to undergo formal tissue
planning session on [**2172-9-8**] to better delineate area of radiation
however family decided to persue comfort only care on [**2172-9-6**].
.
# Acute Renal failure: In setting of chemo with carboplatin.
Urine casts consistent with ATN. Uric acid and electrolytes
elevated 4-5d post chemotherapy concerning for tumor lysis
syndrome. The next therapeutic step was dialysis as patient
became oliguric despite volume overload but the family wished
for comfort only care given dismal prognosis of her lung cancer.
.
#. Metabolic acidosis: Originally thought to be non-gap
metabolic acidosis due to hypoaldosteronism and type IV RTA.
With low albumin, however, this is a gap metabolic acidosis,
most likely due to uremia. Unable to increase RR to compensate
due to concern for auto-peeping in setting of possible COPD.
Goal pH is 7.3-7.35. On [**2172-9-5**], pt's acidosis worsened with pH
7.16-7.18. Despite adjusting ETT placement and decreasing RR to
reduce auto-peep, pt's acidosis worsened. Bicarbonate was given.
.
# Tachycardia/Hypotension ?????? Pt with tachycardia to 140s and
episodes of hypotension to SBP low 80s. Pt with new A-fib on
telemetry and EKG. DDx includes possible enlarging pericardial
effusion/tamponade but pulsus paradoxus was normal and ECHO
[**2172-9-5**] was unchanged from prior. No pneumothorax seen on CXR.
Unable to assess for PE by CTA as pt in renal failure and VQ
would not be helpful in setting of other lung pathology. LENI's
negative for DVT. PE likely given malignancy and prolonged bed
rest but unable to do CTA given renal failure and VQ scan not
helpful in setting of lung changes. Even if it had been
positive, heme/onc recommended against anti-coagulation in
setting of possible tumor necrosis/hemorrhage. Pt remained
tachycardic to 130s despite numerous fluid boluses.
.
#. Electrolyte disturbances: Pt developed hypernatremia on
[**2172-9-4**] most likley due to dehydration with free water deficit
of 1.4L, started on D5W. Pt had hyponatremia and hyperkalemia on
admission, both resolved. Unclear etiology of electrolyte
disturbances on admission- hyponatremia thought to be secondary
to possible adrenal insufficency (now discarded) or possibly
SIADH. Low UNa does not exclude SIADH; renal recommended
rechecking urine lytes with saline load, whcih was not done in
setting of pt??????s other medical issues. Hyperkalemia originally
attributed to hypoaldosteronism and Type IV RTA, but unlikely
per endocrine because of low urine sodium.
.
#. SVC syndrome: Incomplete occlusion of SVC; near complete
occlusion of brachiocephalic veins. Clinically identified by
upper extremity and facial swelling/plethora and mottled skin.
Also with scleral edema. Unable to assess jugular venous
distension given considerable swelling. Seen in appoximately 10%
cases of SSLC. Improved edema on exam compared to admission. SVC
syndrome occurred after Y-stent placed. Possible that tumor
pushing into trachea shifted to compress SVC after stent
placement. She underwent radiation therapy and chemotherapy for
decompression.
.
#. Pleural effusion: s/p right pigtail catheter placement
[**2172-8-25**], removed [**2172-8-31**]. LDH effusion/serum 0.68 (exudate by
Light??????s criteria). Greatest concern for malignant effusion
however cytology was nonspecific. Cultures of fluid all
preliminary negative.
.
#. Pneumothorax: Developed pneumothorax in setting of
re-intubation that resolved after chest tube placement.
.
#. Pericardial effusion: Suspected by cardiology to be
malignant effusion. Felt not to be large enough for percutaneous
drainage. EKG without signs of electrical alternans but does
have low voltages. Repeat ECHO done [**2172-9-5**] in setting of
hypotension demonstrated no change in pericardial effusion.
.
# Sinus Pause on telemetry: Pt had episodes of sinus pauses on
tele night of [**8-30**] with turning to right side. Occurred again
[**2172-9-4**] again with re-positioning. Metoprolol was held and
glucagon given in case this was due to beta blocker toxicity,
but pauses decreased in frequency and duration on their own
without intervention. Cardiology consulted who felt it was
vagally mediated. [**Month (only) 116**] have been due to ETT tube displacement
pressing on carotid when pt was turned.
.
# Leukopenia/thrombocytopenia ?????? Most likely due to chemotherapy
and no improvement in counts on neupogen. She was repeatedly
pan-cultured with negative results.
.
#. Anemia: Normocytic and likely due to anemia of chronic
disease given malignancy. Hemolysis labs were negative.
.
# s/p cerebral aneurysm repair: History of cerebral aneurysm
repair with a number of chronic changes on head CT. Her
antiepileptic medications were continued.

HISTORY OF THE PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 52-year-old
man who woke up on the day of admission with the worst
headache of his life. He fell to the floor unconscious.
There were no neurologic deficits. He was taken to
[**Doctor Last Name 40277**] Hospital, where a head CT revealed a subarachnoid
[**Hospital **] [**First Name (Titles) **] [**Last Name (Titles) **] for further management.
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: None.
PAST SURGICAL HISTORY:
1. Umbilical hernia repair.
2. Status post knee surgery.
MEDICATIONS: None.
ALLERGIES: None.
HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was taken to angio upon
arrival, which revealed an ACOM aneurysm and he was taken to the
operating room and underwent clipping of the aneurysm. He
tolerated the procedure well with no intraoperative
complications.
VITAL SIGNS: Heart rate 57, blood pressure 113/60,
respiratory rate 17, saturations 98%. Postoperatively, he
was alert, oriented times three. Sensation was grossly
intact. Pupils equal, round, and reactive to light. Cranial
nerves II through XII intact. CARDIOVASCULAR: Regular rate
and rhythm. RESPIRATORY: Clear to auscultation bilaterally.
ABDOMEN: Soft, nontender, nondistended. EXTREMITIES: No
clubbing, cyanosis or edema. The patient was status post
craniotomy with clipping of an ACOM aneurysm. He was in
stable condition. The patient also had vent drain placed at
the time of surgery. On [**7-30**], the patient was somewhat
sleepy. The patient received a 500 cc fluid bolus. He also
had question of a right drift. The patient was taken to
angio for evaluation for vasospasm, which was negative. On
[**2159-8-2**], the patient went back to angio, which showed no
residual aneurysm and minimal vasospasm. There was no
treatment done at that tine. The patient was transferred
back to the Intensive Care Unit for close monitoring.
On [**2159-8-4**], the patient spiked to 102. CSF was sent for
culture. The patient continued to be on a high rate of IV
fluid and monitored for vasospasm. He was alert, oriented
times three with slight right pronator drift.
The patient remained neurologically stable with drain,
eventually raised up to 20 cm above the tragus on [**2159-8-7**].
All cultures to date have been negative. The patient
continued to have low grade temperature. Vital signs were
stable. He was afebrile. CSF was negative.
On [**2159-8-9**], the patient neurologically was awake, alert,
and oriented times three. Face was symmetrical with no drift
and he was moving all extremities with good strength. The
ventriculostomy drain was discontinued.
On [**2159-8-10**], the patient had LP to check opening pressure,
which was 22. Ventriculostomy drain was discontinued on the
26th. The patient was transferred to the regular floor on
[**2159-8-10**] in stable condition. The patient was seen by the
Departments of Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy.
On [**8-13**]/2902 the patient had a repeat head CT, which showed
increased size of the ventricles. He had LP, which did not
show a significant opening pressure. The patient was
discharged to home in stable condition with followup with

Date of Birth: Sex: F
Service: GYN/ONCOLOGY
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 58 year-old P3
who presented to Dr. [**First Name (STitle) 1022**] with a large pelvic mass. She had a
history of undergoing exploratory laparotomy for appendicitis
in [**2170-5-28**]. At that time a necrotic right fallopian
tube was excised and the patient was noted to have a pelvic
mass. No further follow up until recently when she presented
to [**Hospital6 1597**] with severe anemia and a
gastrointestinal bleed. She had a transfusion with 7 units
of whole blood. She had a CT during her hospitalization,
which revealed a large abdominal and pelvic mass. She had a
full gastrointestinal evaluation, which included an upper
endoscopy, colonoscopy and small bowel follow through all of
which were negative. The patient states that during
colonoscopy the right side of the colon could not be visualized
due
to the presence of the mass. The patient complains of nausea
and increased abdominal girth. She has chronic constipation
and there is nothing new. There is no other change in bowel
or urinary habits. She denies any vaginal bleeding and any
weight loss.

ALLERGIES: No known drug allergies.
MEDICATIONS:
1. Tylenol.
2. Lasix.
3. Ativan.
4. OxyContin.
5. Celexa.
6. Atarax.
7. Neurontin.
OB HISTORY: Vaginal delivery times three.
GYN HISTORY: Last pap smear several years ago normal. Last
mammogram [**2171-1-26**] normal.
FAMILY HISTORY: Significant for mother with breast cancer.
Sister with anal cancer and a brother with skin cancer.
SOCIAL HISTORY: The patient does not smoke or drink. She is
a retired nurse.
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: As above and otherwise noncontributory.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: General appearance, well developed,
well nourished, thin. HEENT lymph node survey was negative.
Lungs were clear to auscultation. Heart was regular rate and
rhythm without murmurs. Breasts were without masses.
Abdomen was soft and moderately distended. There was a large
palpable mass in both the upper and lower abdomen. There was
no evidence of ascites. Extremities were without edema. On
bimanual examination vulva and vagina were normal. The
cervix was normal. Bimanual rectovaginal examination
revealed a large pelvic mass, which was somewhat ill-defined.
There was no cul-de-sac nodularity and the rectum was
intrinsically normal.
It was explained to the patient that this mass could be
benign or malignant and it was recommended to undergo
surgical excision including exploratory laparotomy, TAH/BSO
and resection of the mass. The risks and benefits were
discussed. Surgical consent was signed.
HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient underwent an examination under
anesthesia, exploratory laparotomy, TAH/BSO and resection of
a pelvic mass on [**2171-3-26**]. Intraoperative findings include
an enlarged uterus with a subserosal fibroid and evidence of
tumor extending to the right lateral rectoperitoneum as well
as centrally and left into the sigmoid and small bowel
mesentery up to the splenic flexure of the colon. The
anatomic survey was otherwise unremarkable. There was
subcentimeter periaortic lymph nodes and normal ovaries
bilaterally with 2 liters of bloody ascites in the abdomen.
Estimated blood loss 3 liters. Secondary to the patient's
blood loss, large amount of ascites and extensive surgery,
the patient was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit for
critical care. On postoperative day zero her vital signs were
stable. Her abdomen was
nondistended with only a small amount of drainage from the
inferior aspect of the incision. The patient's hematocrit
was 27.2, INR 1.2, PTT 28.3, electrolytes were within normal
limits. The patient at this time had been transferred to the
unit for further monitoring. She had been given 7 units of
packed red blood cells. She was in stable condition.
Postoperative day one the patient's vital signs continued to
be stable with adequate urine output overnight. Her
examination was appropriate postoperatively.
On postoperative day one hemodynamically yesterday's
hematocrit was 27, which improved to 34 after 2 more units of
packed red blood cells. There is no evidence of ongoing
intraabdominal bleeding.
Fluids, electrolytes and nutrition: the patient had adequate
urine output with no evidence of
fluid overload. Pain, the patient was on a Dilaudid PCA. On
postoperative day two the patient was extubated. Her pain
was controlled. She was tolerating clears. No nausea or
vomiting. No chest pain or shortness of breath. She was
afebrile. Her vital signs were stable. She had adequate
urine output. Her most recent hematocrit was 34.5. Her
electrolytes were within normal limits. Her abdomen was
appropriately tender and nondistended.
Renal: her urine output was normal. Her Foley catheter was
discontinued. Her creatinine was 0.6. The patient was
encouraged to ambulate. Her diet was advanced.
Hematology: patient had 9 units of packed red blood cells, 4
units of fresh
frozen platelets. Her blood pressure was stable. Her
hematocrit was 34.5. Coumadinization was started on
postoperative day two.
Pulmonary, the patient's supplemental oxygen was weaned for
oxygenation of greater then 93%.
On postoperative day three the patient was without
complaints. She was tolerating clears. The pain was
adequately controlled on 40 mg of OxyContin t.i.d. and
Percocet for breakthrough pain. Cardiovascularly the patient
has a history of hypertension, which was controlled with
Lasix 40 mg q day. The patient was deemed stable enough for
discharge to home.
DISCHARGE DIAGNOSES:
1. Pelvic mass status post exploratory laparotomy, pelvic
washings, TAH/BSO, pelvic mass resection.
2. Blood loss anemia requiring blood transfusion.
3. Hypertension.
4. Chronic pain syndrome.
DISCHARGE CONDITION: Good.
DISCHARGE STATUS: The patient was discharged to home without
services. She will follow up with Dr. [**First Name (STitle) 1022**] as an outpatient
in approximately two weeks for postoperative visit.
DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS:

Pertinent Imaging:
.
EEG: This is a normal routine EEG in the waking and drowsy
states. There are no focal, lateralized, or epileptiform
features
noted.
.
Non-Contrast Head CT:
There is no acute intracranial hemorrhage, shift of normally
midline structures, hydrocephalus, major or minor vascular
territorial
infarction. The density values of the brain parenchyma are
maintained. The
soft tissues and osseous structures are intact. The visualized
paranasal
sinuses and mastoid air cells appear well aerated.
IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial hemorrhage.
.
CXR:
Mild increase in interstitial markings at the left base could be
due to
bronchitis. There is no focal area of consolidation. Lungs are
otherwise
clear. The cardiomediastinal silhouette and hilar contours are
normal. There
is no pleural effusion. Mild levoscoliosis is present.
Brief Hospital Course:
33 yo F with PMH reportedly of asthma and anxiety, p/w altered
mental status and hyponatremia of unclear etiology.
# Hyponatremia: The pt presented with acute change in mental
status and was found to be hyponatremic as low as 119 (lab
details above). The patient was initially worked up for acute
change in MS including a negative CT, LP and EEG. The patient
was also given meningeal dosing for Ceftriaxone, Vancomycin and
Acyclovir, which were later dc'd. Urine and serum tox were
negtaive. The patient was initially hypotensive upon admission
to the MICU to SBP in the 80s, however it was unclear what the
patients baseline SBP was in addition the patient had been given
empiric dose of ativan.
Per report, patient was undergoing bowel prep with Golytley when
became acute ill and began vomiting. Her hx indicated that she
was drinking increased hypotonic fluids including Gatorade. The
patients urine osms were low at 314, but not maximally dilute,
also with Na > 50, so not retaining maximum Na. Thus the
etiologies include sodium loss due to a recent change to low
salt diet with excessive water replacement while others included
adrenocortical insufficiency (although increased cortisol in
hemolyzed sample) and SIADH.
The patient was initially given hypertonic saline and later
changed to normal saline. The patient was water restricted and
after 24hrs her mental status cleared to baseline, however she
did not recall the prior days events. The patient was discharged
directly from the MICU to home at her baseline mental status,
only complaining of mild symptoms of nausea and headache (?
secondary to an LP) and able to take adquate but decreased POs.
.
# Anemia: The patient was previously being worked-up by GI for
BRBPR. There was no evidence of bleeding during her admission.
The pt's Hct remained stable in the mid 30s. This should be
followed up as an outpatient. However it should be noted that
the patient appeared to become hyponatremic secondary to her Go
Lytley dosing and thus this should be addressed if the patient
is to undergo further endoscopic evaluations.
.
# Asthma: Per report. No signs of acute respiratory problems.
The pt was continued on her Albuterol PRN
Medications on Admission:
No known outpatient medications
Discharge Medications:
1. Albuterol 90 mcg/Actuation Aerosol Sig: 1-2 Puffs Inhalation

Altered mental status
.
Secondary:
Asthma
Anxiety
Discharge Condition:
Good. Alert and oriented x3. Tolerating POs.
Discharge Instructions:
You were admitted with confusion and found to have a very low
blood sodium level. This likely occurred due to your bowel prep
for colonoscopy and drinking excess water and other fluids. Your
sodium improved with intravenous fluids and your mental status
returned to baseline. A lumbar puncture was performed without
evidence of meningitis. You developed a headache that was likely
related to the lumbar puncture and should resolve on its own
over the next 24 hours.
.
Please take all medications as prescribed.
.
Call your doctor or return to the ED immediately if you
experience worsening chest pain, shortness of breath, nausea,
vomiting, abdominal pain, sweating, fevers, chills, bleeding, or
other concerning symptoms.
Followup Instructions:
Call your PCP to schedule [**Name Initial (PRE) **] followup appointment within 2 weeks.
.
You should have your blood sodium checked on Monday, [**2167-11-3**],
at your PCP's office.

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. [**Known lastname **] was admitted on [**2154-6-2**] from [**Hospital 38**] Rehab, to
which she was discharged after undergoing a St. [**Male First Name (un) 923**] mechanical
AVR on [**2154-5-17**] with Dr. [**First Name (STitle) **] and [**Hospital1 827**]. [**Hospital 38**] rehab reported increased dyspnea,
tachypnea, diarrhea, and failure to thrive over the past 36-48
hours.
Upon admission she was seen in consultation by the renal
service. She was dialyzed during her stay and her renal
function improved markedly. It was determined that she likely
wound not need long term dialysis. She was also seen in

TTE [**7-22**]
LEFT ATRIUM: Mild LA enlargement.
RIGHT ATRIUM/INTERATRIAL SEPTUM: Normal RA size.
LEFT VENTRICLE: Normal LV wall thickness, cavity size, and
global systolic function (LVEF>55%). Suboptimal technical
quality, a focal LV wall motion abnormality cannot be fully
excluded. No resting LVOT gradient.
AORTA: Normal aortic diameter at the sinus level.
AORTIC VALVE: Normal aortic valve leaflets. No AS. No AR.
MITRAL VALVE: Normal mitral valve leaflets with trivial MR. Mild
mitral annular calcification.
TRICUSPID VALVE: Normal tricuspid valve leaflets. Mild [1+] TR.
Moderate PA systolic hypertension.
PERICARDIUM: There is an anterior space which most likely
represents a fat pad, though a loculated anterior pericardial
effusion cannot be excluded.
GENERAL COMMENTS: Suboptimal image quality - poor echo windows.
Right pleural effusion.
Conclusions
The left atrium is mildly dilated. 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. The aortic valve
leaflets appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion.
There is no aortic valve stenosis. No aortic regurgitation is
seen. The mitral valve appears structurally normal with trivial
mitral regurgitation. There is moderate pulmonary artery
systolic hypertension. There is an anterior space which most
likely represents a fat pad.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [**2139-6-29**],
moderate pulmonary artery systolic pressure is now identified.
Biventriclar systolic function is similar.
Brief Hospital Course:
# Altered mental status: On admission patient somnolent but
responding to commands. According to team she is only slightly
more somnolent than her prior baseline. Head CT negative for
evidence of bleed. AMS likely due to infection and Acute renal
failure.
.
#. Acute on Chronic Renal Failure - Baseline creatinine 1.5-1.8
prior to last admission, however on last discharge Cr was 4.2
(felt to be her new baseline secondary to ATN. On admission the
pt was found to have a Cr of 6.2. She received 1L NS in ED, and
additional 1-2L NS bolus in ICU with little subsequent
improvement in renal function. Urine lytes obtained with FeNa
of 9%. Renal team consulted after as the family had expressed a
desire to proceed with aggressive care (dialysis). After a
family meeting with extensive discussion about the patients
multiorgan system failure that continued to worsen despite
medical management, the family and medical team agreed that
dialysis was not indicated and chose to make patient CMO.
.
#. Chronic Respiratory Failure - s/p trach 03/[**2139**]. Evidence of
COPD exacerbation with expiratory wheezes and prolonged
expiratory phase on [**7-24**]. Prednisone increased to 60 mg po qday
and nebulized albuterol scheduled. The patient required support
with mechanical ventilation and her prednisone was changed to a
solu-medrol taper. Current dose 30mg daily with plan to taper Q4
days. The pt's respiratory status improved with increased
steroids and she was weaned from the ventilator and continued on
trach collar. The family has agreed to hold any further
mechanical ventilation should it become necessary and to focus
on comfort.
.
# Lower GI bleed - The patient had an episode of significant
lower gi bleeding in setting of coagulopathy related to poor
nutritional status. Given the patient's worsening multiorgan
system failure the medical team and family agreed to hold on any
blood transfusions and possible procedures which may lead to
discomfort.
.
# UTI: The patient has a history of multiple UTIs with highly
resistant organisms. Recently completed course of linezolid and
cipro for VRE and cefepime resistant nonfermenter
nonpseudomonas. On admission pt was found to have a positive UA
with mod leuk, pos nit. Elevated WBC count, currently afebrile.
BP stable. Lactate within normal limits. Given previous culture
data the pt was started on linezolid and cipro pending repeat
culture. Linezolid discontinued [**7-24**] after culture grew gram
negative rods. Final speciation and sensitivities demonstrated
resistance to cipro and the patient was transitioned to
meropenem. 7 day course of meropenem completed on [**7-30**].
.
# Small bowel obstruction/ileus: Partial SBO noted on CT scan
from outside hospital. She was seen by surgery in the ED -
nonoperative candidate, NG tube placed. Abdominal exam notable
for distension, nontender, diminished BS. Plan to continue
serial abdominal exams, continue NGT and manage conservatively.
Improved quickly, had large bowel movements the second day of
admission.
.
# NSTEMI: Troponin of 1.51 on admission to ED in setting of
increased creatinine. Case discussed with cardiology who did
not feel intervention necessary at this time. At this point
timing of event is unclear. [**Name2 (NI) **] echo on [**6-29**] showed EF 50-55%.
Repeat TTE unchanged from prior. continued medical management
with aspirin, beta blocker, statin. Aspirin discontinued as pt
developed lower GI bleed.
.
# Goals of Care: Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) **], primary physician, [**Name10 (NameIs) **] active
in discussion about goals of care with family, as recent
hospitalizations have been very complicated. Intially the family
had requested consideration of continued aggressive care
including mechanical ventilation, PEG placement and dialysis if
necessary. However the patient continued to worsen despite
maximal medical therapy and given overall poor prognosis due to
multi-organ system failure the family decided to hold on
dialysis, reinstating mechanical ventilation. She was
transferred from the ICU to the medical floor with the goal on
maintaining comfort care only.
.
She was maintained on morphine IV, titrated to comfort. She
died peacefully at 1900 hours on [**2139-8-6**]. Her son was present,
as was the attending physician.

History of Present Illness:
Mr. [**Known lastname 931**] is a 47 yo male with h/o DM, kidney/pancreas
transplant in [**2183**] and recent STEMI that was medically managed
in late [**12-18**] who was transferred from OSH with SOB. Hx was
obtained mostly from notes as pt quite somnolent on exam. Pt
presented to OSH today with c/o 2 weeks of progressive dyspnea
and pedal edema. His sats were 70% on RA and 92% on NRB with RR
40. He was placed on Bipap with sats 94-95% and CXR showed
whiteout in his lungs. He was treated with Rocephin,solumedrol
125 mg, 80 mg IV lasix, ativan and nitro gtt. Additionally, his
troponin T was noted to be 1.17, proBNP 70,000 (baseline
30,000), WBC 21.8 with a left shift. ABG there was 7.39/32/71.
He was then transferred to [**Hospital1 **].
.
Upon arrival to the ER here his blood pressures were stable. His
sats were 98% on 15L NRB. Since he appeared to be using his
ascessory muscles he was switched to BIPAP with sats of 95%. An
additional 80 of IV lasix was administered at that time and he
put out 1.1L over the past 6 hours. CXR was done and showed
evidence of PNA. Additionally in the ER troponin was noted to
elevated and ST elevations were seen on EKG. After d/w cards it
was determined the trop was trending down from previous STEMI
and ST changes were residual from previous STEMI.
.
Currently patient is on BIPAP and answering questions
periodically and falling back asleep.
Past Medical History:

Brief Hospital Course:
A/P: 47 yo male with h/o DM, kidney/pancreas transplant in [**2183**]
and recent STEMI that was medically managed in late [**12-18**] who
was transferred from OSH with SOB, likely PNA and CHF
exacerbation.
.
1) Respiratory failure: Patient's sats were in the 70s on RA at
OSH. CXR showed whiteout c/w bilateral patchy PNA +/- CHF
exacerbation. Following admission, patient was initially
maintained on BiPAP for what appeared to be increased work of
breathing, though sats were stable at the time. On transfer to
[**Hospital1 18**], patient failed to improve clinically with diuresis,
making CHF seem less likely to be the etiology of his
respiratory failure. Bilateral patchy infiltrate was visualized;
this atypical pattern for community-acquired pneumonia raised
concerns for PCP [**Last Name (NamePattern4) **]. fungal vs. multifocal bacterial pneumonia
in this chronically immunosuppressed host. On HD#2, he was
intubated for respiratory distress. Diagnostic bronchoscopy and
BAL were performed with unrevealing culture data. He was
initially was treated empirically for PCP, [**Name10 (NameIs) **] Bactrim
discontinued due to nephrotoxicity and highly sensitive BAL
negative for PCP. [**Name10 (NameIs) **] was treated with a 10-day course of
levaquin and vancomycin for broad spectrum coverage as no
organism was isolated. Serum fungal markers negative for
aspergillus, equivocal for beta-glucan. Patient remained
ventilator-dependent from [**2-12**] - [**3-1**], on CPAP + PS with ongoing
high ventilatory requirements likely due to fluid overload which
was compounded by acute oliguric on chronic renal failure.
Course was complicated by a MSSA ventilator-acquired pneumonia
which was treated with 8 days of vancomycin and zosyn.
Following improvement of renal function, we diuresed
aggressively with lasix gtt and lasix boluses. On [**3-1**], he was
extubated despite poor prognostic indicators due to the
chronicity of his vent-dependence, with plan for tracheostomy if
he did not tolerate non-invasive respiratory support. He was
transitioned to face-mask O2 and ultimately did not require the
planned tracheostomy.
.
2) Cardiac:
(a) Pump - Patient is s/p STEMI in [**12-18**] with resultant CHF,
last EF measured at 30% in [**Month (only) **], now 25% this admission. On
admission, the heart failure service was consulted. Because his
clinical status early in admission did not improve with
diuresis, we did not feel as though heart failure was the
predominant precipitating factor for his initial respiratory
failure. However, his poor pump function and poor renal
function compounded his course significantly and led to a
protracted course on the ventilator due to worsening pulmonary
edema. He was tried on a trial of nitroglycerin drip for
afterload reduction, which was later discontinued in favor of
hydralazine. His beta-blockade therapy was uptitrated as
tolerated by BP. Throughout the hospital course, he was
diuresed only as tolerated, with careful monitoring of his
tenuous renal function.
(b) Vessels - Per cards, persistent troponin elevation was
likely residual from prior STEMI, as CKMB not elevated.
Continued medical management with ASA, plavix, statin, BB. ACEI
held in the setting of ARF.
(c) Rhythm - Previously NSR with new onset paroxysmal atrial
fibrillation during this hospitalization. He was initially
started on beta-blocker for rate control while in the ICU. On
[**3-3**] went into afib without resolution to Lopressor, then with
dropping blood pressure. An amiodarone drip was started, with
loading bolus of 150 mg, with improvement. Coumadin initiated
on [**3-5**] for CVA prophylaxis in this relatively young man with
[**Name (NI) 16064**] score of 3 (1 point each for DM, HTN, and CHF); Goal INR
[**3-17**]. There was some difficulty with regulation of his coumadin
dosing as the patient became supratherapeutic likely secondary
to renal failure. His dose was held for a few days and
restarted. However, the patient refused to take the coumadin
once reinitiation was recommended because he was concerned about
having an elevated INR again. Multiple attempts were made to
encourage him to take his medications as recommended. He was
eventually started and discharged on daily oral amiodarone for
his irregular rhythm.
.
4) Anemia: NG lavage gastroccult positive. Stools reported as
guiac-negative. GI consulted on [**2-24**] for ? UGIB and EGD
deferred. Consider stress ulcer vs. OG trauma. Iron studies c/w
anemia of chronic disease. He was transfused periodically in
the setting of his low output state. His hematocrit was stable
while on the medicaly floor.
.
5) ARF: In the setting of his acute pulmonary illness, patient
developed acute on chronic renal insufficiency s/p renal
transplant x 14 years. Suspect initially pre-renal picture as
precipitant for ARF, given intravascular volume depletion. Renal
ultrasound of transplant kidney shows hypoperfusion but no
hydronephrosis (which was queried in the acute setting of
post-renal obstruction, now resolved). Likely overall picture
c/w prerenal azotemia, which resolved throughout the
hospitalization with improving Cr and improving UOP. The Renal
service followed him throughout his stay and felt that he had no
acute HD needs despite his poorly functioning renal graft. He
was continued on Vitamin D analogue Calcitriol for secondary
hyperparathyroidism (PTH 225). He received Epo 10,000 units
3x/week for anemia of chronic disease. His aAceI in the setting
of acute renal failure. He was maintained on prednisone and
tacrolimus for chronic immunosuppression. His tacrolimus dose
was decreased under the direction of the Nephrology service.
.
6) Urinary retention: Patient also has unusual phallic anatomy
with penile implant, stricture, ? prostatic enlargement, and it
is possible that post-renal obstruction also contributed to the
onset of his ARF. Following multiple nursing and house officer
attampts at foley placement, Urology was consulted and
ultimately were able to place a 12 french Coude catheter. Had
no difficulties with urinary retention once foley discontinued.
He was restarted on flomax once his hemodynamics were stable and
tolerated it well.
.
7) FEN: Nutrional support with tube feeds was provided while
patient was ventilator-dependent. A S&S evaluation demonatrated
possible delayed signs of aspiration. A video swallow study was
ultimately performed which revealed moderate silent aspiration
with nectar-thick consistencies and multiple episodes of
laryngeal penetration, which were able to be cleared with cued
cough. He underwent a repeat swallow evaluaiton [**3-14**] with
improved swallowing mechanics. His diet was advanced to regular
and he tolerated it well.
While on the medical floor, the patient remained stable and was
monitored mainly for return of renal function to baseline and
medication management. It was recommended to the patient
initially that he be discharged to a rehabilitation facility for
further PT/OT. However, the patient and his wife felt very
strongly that he would be safe at home. He worked with PT
throughout his admission who felt that he was improving and was
appropriate for home PT. He was discharged home with home PT and
VNA for medication teaching. He will follow up with his Renal
and Diabetic physicians.

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. [**Known lastname **] was evaluated by the Trauma service in the Emergency
Room and admitted to the hospital for further evaluation
including a syncopal work up. The Orthopedic service placed a
[**Last Name (un) 8688**] brace on his right shoulder for closed treatment of
his humeral fracture and the Spine service wanted his C7-T1
anterolisthesis further imaged with MRI. F/u MRI without
contrast showed no evidence of ligamentous disruption or marrow
edema in the vertebral bodies but a possible collection anterior
to the T-spine. F/u MRI w/wo contrast showed no collection.
His carotid studies showed < 40% ICA stenosis bilaterally and
his Cardiac echo revealed an EF of 45% with basal inferior and
inferolateral hypokinesis. He denied any dizziness, chest pain
or shortness of breath but on [**2196-12-3**] became hypoxic and
developed rapid atrial fibrillation and was subsequently
transferred to the ICU for further management.
A chest CTA revealed a pulmonary embolism in the RML branch and
venous studies documented a left popliteal DVT. He was placed
on IV Heparin and Coumadin was started. His oxygenation
improved with pulmonary toilet. He never required reintubation.
His chest Xray showed some LLL consolidation and he was briefly
placed on antibiotics however when the diagnosis of PE was made
the antibiotics were discontinued.
The Geriatric service followed the patient closely during his
admission and assisted with management of his PAF which was
eventually controlled with maximizing his beta blockers. His
Coumadin was adjusted to maintain an INR of 2.5 - 3.0.
The Ortho Spine service followed Mr. [**Known lastname **] during his course
and based on his MRI recommended that he wear a [**Location (un) 2848**] J collar
for 2 weeks and follow up then for another exam and possibly
more Xrays.
Physical therapy saw the patient and recommended short term
rehabilitation.
On the day of discharge, the patient was tolerating regular
diet, having bowel movements and flatus, and his pain was
well-controlled with PO pain medications. He will need to have
further voiding trials at rehabilitation and is going with a
foley in place.

when/if patient able.
3. Non-displaced distal left clavicle fracture of indeterminate
age, but
which may be acute.
CXR [**2151-12-14**]:
As compared to the previous radiograph, there is a newly
appeared
retrocardiac opacity. The opacity is relatively homogeneous,
favoring
atelectasis over pneumonia. However, the presence of pneumonia
cannot be
excluded. The right lung base shows a minimal area of
atelectasis.
CT head [**2151-12-11**]
1. Essentially unchanged bilateral subacute-to-chronic subdural
hematomas
compared to outside hospital studies. No definite new foci of
acute
intracranial hemorrhage. No significant midline shift.
2. Chronic-appearing right frontoparietal and parietal infarcts.
CT Head [**2151-12-13**]:
Evaluation of the posterior fossa is slightly limited by motion
artifacts despite multiple scan acquisitions. Allowing for
differences in patient positioning, there is essentially no
change in bilateral hypodense subdural collections, right
greater than left. No new hemorrhage is identified. There is
unchanged minimal leftward shift of the anterior falx and septum
pellucidum. Parenchymal hypodensity and encephalomalacia in the
right posterior frontal and parietal lobes are again noted,
likely a chronic right MCA infarct. Scattered periventricular
and subcortical white matter hypodensities are also
again seen, likely due to chronic small vessel ischemic disease.
There is a small amount of fluid in the right maxillary sinus.
No osseous
abnormality is identified.
IMPRESSION: Bilateral hypodense subdural collections, right
greater than
left, appear similar to [**2151-12-11**], but larger than on [**2151-12-7**].
EEG [**2151-12-16**]:
IMPRESSION: Abnormal EEG in the waking and drowsy states due to
the
slow posterior and other background and due to the occasional
generalized slowing. These findings indicate a widespread
encephalopathy. They suggest a concomitant infectious,
metabolic, or
[**Last Name 89736**] problem as causing the encephalopathy. This
would
less likely derive from the subdural hematomas. With regard to
the
hematomas, there was no prominent loss of background voltage on
either
side though that is a very insensitive indicator of subdural
fluid.
There may have been a bit of slowing on the left, but nothing
persistent
or prominent. The single epileptiform sharp wave was likely
related to
movement artifact, and there were no similar findings in the
rest of the
tracing. An abnormal cardiac rhythm was noted.
Brief Hospital Course:
[**Age over 90 **] yo gentleman, DM, HTN, Afib (not on anticoagulation), BPH,
urine retention on chronic foley after stroke on [**2151-3-27**],
prostate Ca (mets to pelvic bone) was transferred to [**Hospital1 18**] for
evaluation of his very recent seizure on [**2151-12-10**] and enlarging
right subdural hematoma (has chronic bilateral subdural
hematomas).
.
# Goals of Care: Over the course of his hospitalization, the
patient had a substantial clinical decline. He was unable to
interact with family and medical team in a meaningful way, and
was unable to take oral nutrition and medications without
aspiration. Consequently, several family meetings were held,
and a decision was made to move from aggressive care to more of
a comfort-focused approach. The family and medical team decided
that the patient should be allowed to eat pureed foods despite
the risk of aspiration. Furthermore, per palliative care
discussion and note with his daughter [**Name (NI) **], the health care
proxy, the "Goal of care is optimal mental status so he can
interact with family in a meaningful manner. If pt continues to
improve goals of care should be continually readdressed and
modified. Family is aware that pt is still seriously ill and may
not regain function, and may not survive this event. If he is
improving, there should be discussion about treatment of next
infection ( resp or urine) with options to treat aggressively if
this is within keeping of goals/current status. If pt is
improving, option of intermittent catheterization, to reduce
chances of UTI, should be considered. This option will only be
favorable if pt does not experience discomfort with
catheterization. If he has not improved or is failing, options
for moving to hospice/care and comfort should be offered and
discussed. [**Doctor First Name **] is aware of hospice options and would like
to meet the hospice team. Family has made decision that
artificial feeding is not in keeping with overall goals of care.
No PEG placement desired. Pt is DNR/DNI but is not "Do Not
Hospitalize" - this should be discussed with his daughter. Pt
has had delirium- use of anticholinergics (scopolamine, levsin)
for secretions should be limited if possible and
positioning, good oral care and oral suction can be used in
place of medications. Use of end of life care medications to
manage respiratory distress should only be started after
discussion with daughter."
.
# Seizure & chronic subdural hematoma: Pt was thought to
possibly have a seizure focus from the previous stroke, subdural
hematoma, or significant lowering of seizure threshold secondary
to imipenem that he received in his admission on [**2151-11-30**] to
[**Hospital3 4107**] for UTI/PNA. He was evaluated by the
neurosurgeon who concluded that the patient was neurologically
stable and no interventions were indicated. He was also
evaluated by neurology who recommended that he continue Keppra
500 mg twice daily for seizure prophylaxis. If the patient does
have a seizure lasting more than several minutes, he can be
treated with crushed sublingual ativan, or rectal diazepam
(please see attached directions).
.
# Altered mental status: His mental status was noticed to
deteriorate dramatically following his seizure (according to the
daughter and son in law). During his stay, his mental status
gradually and slowly deteriorated. Possibly causes included
multiple intracranial co-morbidities, and infections (pneumonia
and UTI). He was agitated several times at night, and Seroquel
12.5 mg PO qhs was started with good effect. He was evaluated
by speech and swallow several times which revealed his poor
swallowing capability and high risk of aspiration. NG tube was
placed initially to deliver nutrition and medications. However,
NG tube was removed after a family decision was made to improve
the patient's comfort despite risk of aspiration. According to
the daughter's wishes, she would like her father to receive
speicific diet that might reduce the chance of aspiration, that
is pureed, nectar thickened diet.
.
# Pneumonia: The patient was admitted on [**2151-11-30**] to [**Hospital1 **] for complex UTI and pneumonia. CXR on admission showed
Rt lower zone infiltrate with blunting of Rt costophrenic angle.
The infiltrate improved compared to [**12-10**] CXR. It was felt to be
a new Rt sided pneumonia since from OSH his prior pneumonia was
on the left side. Aspiration was the most likely cause given his
poor speech and swallow function. He received a course of IV
Vancomycin and Cefipime that started on [**2151-12-14**] for 7 days for
Hospital acquired pneumonia. There was no growth on blood
culture.
.
# UTI: Culture grew significant yeast, however this is most
likely contamination from his indwelling foley. He received
fluconazole for 7 days starting on [**2151-12-14**] to treat possible
candidal UTI, and foley catheter was changed.
.
# Diabetes Mellitus: The patient was initially on fixed dose
lantus and humalog sliding scale with meals. However, when his
NG tube feeds were discontinued and the patient allowed to eat,
his lantus was significantly decreased and humalog stopped. At
discharge, he was on Lantus 8 units at night. However, his oral
intake should be carefully monitored and his finger sticks
checked at least once daily. If his intake of food and finger
sticks decline, his lantus should also be decreased and possibly
discontinued.
.
# Atrial fibrillation: Patient has been in atrial fibrillation
for the duration of his hospitalization. He had a few episodes
of HR in the 130's-140's along with agitation. These episodes
were dramatically reduced after his Toprol XL 50 mg was switched
to metoprolol 50 mg twice daily. Coumadin has been held since
[**2151-3-27**] due to recent hemorrhagic stroke.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Mr. [**Known lastname **] and family,
Mr. [**Known lastname **] was admitted to [**Hospital1 18**] because of seizure and
increase in the size of blood around his brain on the right
side. He was evaluated by the brain surgeons on admission who
felt that there was no indication to intervene regarding the
blood around his brain. During his stay, he was evaluated by
speech and swallow team several times that showed impaired
swallowing and high risk of aspiration. A tube was fixed that
goes from his nose to his stomach to deliver food and
medications. He became agitated a few times at night which made
it neccessary to give him a medication at evening time on
regular basis to control his agitation.
On admission, there was an infection in his right lower lung,
for which he was receiving an IV antibiotic. After few days of
hospitalization, he had another infection in his left lower
lung, most likely due to aspiration. Because of this, his IV
antibiotics was changed to two medications that he received for
a total course of 7 days. He also received an oral [**Doctor Last Name 360**] to
treat the fungus in his urine for 7 days.
His Toprol XL 50 mg was changed to metoprolol 50 mg orally twice
daily. Keppra 500 mg twice daily was added to prevent further
seizure.
Given his poor health status, a family meeting was held and it
was discussed with [**Doctor First Name **], the daughter and health care proxy
of Mr [**Name (NI) **] and her husband, [**Name (NI) **], regarding the long term
goals for Mr [**Known lastname **]. It was agreed to take him to a Hospice
care and move to comfort measures. His IV line and feeding tube
were removed, but his blood pressure, anti-seizure and insulin
was continued.

Chief Complaint:
seizure and hematemesis
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
EGD
History of Present Illness:
47 L handed male with PMH sig for transverse myelitis dx [**12-8**]
undergoing tx with 6mo of steroids presents from OSH with
hematemesis, gastric ulcer with visible vessel s/p EGD and
cauterization here on [**2-14**].
In [**2123-11-3**], he started developing severe lower back pain
with weakness in his legs and numbness in his hands. He had
been diagnosed by his PCP as having back arthritis. He was
progressively getting worse and one day he fell and could not
stand up. His symptoms did not improve and he presented to [**Hospital1 2025**]
on [**2123-11-18**] with worsened hand/LE weakness 1/5 strength,
hyperreflexia. Full spine MRI at [**Hospital1 2025**] revealed questionable mass
and intramedullary T2 hyperintense from C2-L2 with cord
expansion and patchy enhancement. Further workup for
malignancies included negative abd/chest CT and brain MRI. CSF
analysis revealed WBC 8 [L 97% M 3%], glucose 85, protein 38.
[**Doctor First Name **], RF, HSV; mycoplasma PCR, VRDL pending; Gram stain, cx
showed NG. He was started on solu-medrol 1g IV daily x5d with
considerable improvement of LE strength. Repeat MRI showed
diminished T2 hyperintesities. He was discharged to home on
[**2123-11-27**] and arranged for solu-medrol taper. He was also started
on balcofen for spasticity, and told to f/u as outpatient in
[**Hospital 878**] clinic.
Shortly after d/c of steroids, symptoms relapsed. Presented here
[**12-6**] with bacteremia, septic right knee and weakness. At that
time pt was found to have a septic joint and gout which was
treated appropriately with antibiotics and NSAIDs.
He was later transfered to the neurology service for w/u of his
weakness. An MRI of the head was normal, but MRIs of the spine
revealed edema and enhancement C3-C6 suggestive for lymphoma vs
sarcoid vs myelitis. A chest CT revealed pulmonary nodules. A
biopsy of the nodules were performed, which showed only lung
parenchyma, however it is uncertain that the nodules were truly
biopsied. An LP revealed increased protein, though tap was
traumatic and many RBCs were present. CSF viral studies-->+VZV,
-EBV, and -HSV PCR. ACE normal. He was started on a second
course of high dose steroids 1gm soulmedrol x5days to be
followed by a 6 month course of PO steroids. Pt was d/c'd home
on [**12-30**] with improving exam.
Pt had been doing well at home with PT/OT until [**2124-2-8**], when
pt's wife noticed pt undergo a possible seizure followed by
coffee ground emesis. The pt's body stiffened. He then began
having a rhythmic shaking of the LUE for about 30 seconds. Pt
was then unresponsive for 5-10 minutes, after which he had
coffee ground emesis. He was taken to OSH, where an EGD showed a
gastric ulcer with a visible vessel and a Hct was 26. Pt was
treated with H2 blocker and d/c'd home on [**2-13**]. The following
day, pt developed a second episode, which per the wife, was
exactly like the first, and was followed by a large amount of
hematemesis. Pt taken to OSH and then transferred to [**Hospital1 18**],
where a HCT on admission was 24.3. He was admitted to the MICU
for UGIB.

MRI (c-spine)
Compared to the previous examination, there is decreased
abnormal signal within the cervical cord, largely confined to
the region of C3 and C4. There does not appear to be abnormal
cord swelling at the present time. There is still some contrast
enhancement but this also appears to be reduced compared to the
previous examination. Degenerative disease is again seen
involving C3- C4, C4-C5, and C5-C6, and C6-C7 essentially
unchanged compared to the previous examination. For details, see
that report.
EEG
pending
Brief Hospital Course:
1. NEURO- His last seizure was in [**2122-9-2**]. Based on his
history, probably had additional seizures before admission.
Here, he was started on Trileptal and has remained seizure free.
MRI showed no evidence of intracranial pathology that may have
led to his recent seizures. C-Spine MRI showed similar, though
decreased region of enhancement in the cervical cord at C3/4.
The etiology of his his cord pathology is not yet clear. Was
thought to be neurosarcoid due to presence of pulmonary nodules,
but no clear evidence of granulomas or elevated ACE was seen.
Repeat CT of his chest here was normal, with no LAD and clear
lungs. He has been on chronic steroids for several months
though, so his initial findings may have cleared in this
setting. In terms of malignancy, biopsy of the lung nodules was
non diagnostic in the past and the CSF cytology did not contain
adequate cells to rule this out as a possible cause. Infectious
causes seem unlikley, but VZV was positive (pt never had clinic
varicella). Had a repeat LP here with essentially normal cell
count, glucose, and very mildly elevated protein at 50. This
was sent for TB-PCR and cytology. Both pending at D/C.
He has been on prednisone 60 mg for several months and
apparently worsened when they tried to taper him off this
medication. We decreased him to 40 mg here and he will f/u with
neurology where they can continue to taper this as he tolerates.
He had EEG here with no evidence of seizure activity, but his
episodes do sound suspicious for seizure. Given this, will
continue his Trileptal as an outpt.
Etiology of his neurological dysfunction still unclear, but
ddx includes TB, lymphoma, neurosarcoid(less likely), MS.
Apparently had diffuse enhancement of spinal cord on past MRI,
which is not classic for any of the above. Repeat scan here is
much improved as above. Will f/u on CSF studies.
2. GI - UGIB likely secondary to vessel in ulcer as seen on EGD.
Received 2 units PRBCs. This vessel was cauterized during this
admission and his Hct remained stable afterwards. His diet was
slowly advanced and he was tolerating solids without issue by
discharge. He did have 1 episode of heme positive stool while
here, but would expect this given his recent bleed and fact that
it was first BM since this. No drop in his Hct with this.
Started on iron. Also started on Protonix 40 mg [**Hospital1 **]. WIll
continue this as outpt and f/u with his PCP [**Last Name (NamePattern4) **] 10 days.
3. CV - He was ruled out for MI here. He did have tachycardia
on telemetry with activity at times, but wasn't orthostatic.
Unclear etiology, but didn't suspect PE, dehydration,
arrhythmia. Encouraged PO intake. Held his ACE-I for the
majority of admission, but restarted when he was stable. BP was
in 140s systolic without medication.
4.Gout:Continued his home allopurinol. No issues. Told pt to
avoid NSAIDS.
5.Pulm:Pt was continued on theophylline. COuld have been
contributing to tachycardia, but has been on this for a long
time, so decided to continue it.
6.ID:Continued Bactrim for ppx as he is on high dose steroids.

Brief Hospital Course:
53 yo f w/ h/o HCV, HCC and cirrhosis with h/o SBP and variceal
hemorrhage who was admitted to MICU with UGIB and hyperkalemia.
Pt with underlying incurable malignancy and that superimposed
variceal bleeding in setting of renal and hepatic failure
carried a very poor prognosis. Family was aware of Pt's
mortality risk and were interested in less aggressive measures
of care that would preclude intubation, dialysis or other
aggresive procedures but still remained full code as per Pt's
initially wishes. Pt was maintained on octreotide/protonix gtts
and supported/resucitated with blood products during first
hospital day. Pt without recurrent hematemesis and remained
hemodynamically stable off pressors but requiring aggressive
resucitation. Hepatology and Transplant surgery services
consulted and help in pt management. Pt with continued
worsening liver and renal function despite aggressive resucition
presumed [**1-16**] hypovolemia at OSH in setting of variceal bleed.
Belief was that Mr [**Known lastname 131**] at best had several weeks to live given
clinical picture. Discussions between MICU team, Hepatology
servicem, Social work and ethics support with Family; decision
was made to make Pt comfort measure only. Subsequently Pt died
[**2182-4-12**].

ADMISSION DIAGNOSIS: Metastatic ovarian cancer.
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 77-year-old
woman with metastatic ovarian cancer with multiple medical
problems who presented with hypoxia after being found hypoxic
at rehabilitation with an elevated white count.
The patient had been discharged from the [**Hospital1 346**] two days prior to this admission. A
brief summary of her most recent history includes a diagnosis
of an inoperable nonamenable small-bowel obstruction
secondary to her tumor. She was managed medically for this
and discharged to rehabilitation in early [**Month (only) 958**].
On [**2-16**] she was found by her family at rehabilitation to
be unresponsive except to painful stimuli, hypoxic, and
febrile to 104.6 degrees Fahrenheit. She was also
tachycardic and tachypneic.
She was brought to the Emergency Department at [**Hospital1 346**]. She was intubated and started on
pressors and antibiotics; including vancomycin, ceftriaxone,
and Flagyl. These antibiotics were then changed to Unasyn
and vancomycin. She was weaned from pressors. She had
several brief episodes of supraventricular tachycardia which
were self-limited. She was also found to have renal failure
which was attributed to obstructive uropathy from tumor along
with a small prerenal component.
On [**2-19**], antibiotics were changed to vancomycin and
ceftazidime. On [**2-21**], these were changed to vancomycin
and meropenem for pneumonia once sensitivities were
determined. She was extubated on [**2-21**]. She received
hydrocortisone for adrenal insufficiency. She was diuresed
and called out to the floor on [**2-22**].
A Neurology consultation on [**2-23**] found the patient able
to follow one-step commands and state her name, and her
encephalopathy was attributed to sepsis.
On [**2-24**], she was found to have dark drainage from her
nasogastric tube which was thought to be blood. Her right
arm was found to be swollen, and an ultrasound revealed a
deep venous thrombosis. Anticoagulation was not started
given the patient's risk of a gastrointestinal bleed.
On [**2-25**], she was found tachypneic and hypoxic and began
to be febrile as well. There was concern about aspiration.
She was managed with oxygen up to 100% on nonrebreather and
then weaned downward. She had blood from her ostomy as well
as occult blood positive nasogastric tube output. Her mental
status worsened, and she no longer responded to pain or
voice. She had no spontaneous eye movements. She was
transfused multiple times for a falling hematocrit.
She was noted to be in respiratory distress by her family on
[**3-1**]. At that time, she was also noted to pulseless.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was begun. A code was called.
The patient had asystole after a prolonged code which
included epinephrine, intubation, cardiopulmonary
resuscitation, and atropine. The patient went into
ventricular fibrillation. She was shocked at 300 joules and
given one ampule of bicarbonate. She then developed a narrow
complex tachycardia with a systolic blood pressure in the
110s with a palpable carotid pulse.
She was transferred to the Medical Intensive Care Unit where
she was rapidly weaned from pressors, and she was treated for
her pseudomonal pneumonia and urinary tract infection.
The patient was extubated and then failed secondary to her
mental status and had to be reintubated. She was found to be
adrenally insufficient as well. She suffered from
thrombocytopenia. She was negative for heparin-induced
thrombocytopenia antibody. She had a negative blood smear.
Medications were not felt to be causing the thrombocytopenia.
Eventually, her platelets recovered. The patient had a
tracheostomy. She continued to have minimal output from her
colostomy secondary to her obstruction by tumor. She was
deemed not to be a surgical candidate.
The patient was intermittently febrile, but cultures were not
revealing. She did develop positive cultures on [**3-15**] and
[**3-16**]; which were not treated as there had been no change
in her clinical status. Her urinalysis was negative for
signs of infection.
She was discharged to rehabilitation on [**3-18**]. At the
rehabilitation facility she was found to be hypoxic and have
an elevated white blood cell count with thick material being
suctioned from the tracheostomy. She was returned to the
Emergency Department.

of normal size. The left ventricular wall thickness and
cavity size were normal. The left ventricular systolic
function was hyperdynamic with an ejection fraction of
greater than 75%. The right ventricular chamber size and
free wall motion were normal. A number of aortic valve
leaflets could not be determined. The aortic valve leaflets
were mildly thickened. There was no significant aortic valve
stenosis. There was 1+ aortic regurgitation. There was no
mitral valve prolapse. There was trivial mitral
regurgitation. There was no pericardial effusion.

4. Hydrocortisone 50 mg intravenously q.8h.
5. Regular insulin sliding-scale.
6. Morphine as needed.
7. Miconazole powder.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION ON PRESENTATION: Physical examination
revealed temperature was 95.6, heart rate was 108, blood
pressure was 125/49, and respiratory rate was 25. The
patient had a tracheostomy and unresponsive to deep sternal
rub. The patient was jaundiced with scleral icterus. The
pupils were reactive bilaterally. The mucous membranes were
dry. The chest revealed coarse breath sounds bilaterally.
The heart was regular. No murmurs, rubs, or gallops. The
abdomen was distended, hard, and with no bowel sounds. Her
extremities were warm. There was 2+ right upper extremity
pitting edema. There was left upper extremity trace edema.
There was bilateral lower extremity 2+ pitting edema.
Neurologically, the patient withdrew her feet to pain.
PERTINENT LABORATORY VALUES ON PRESENTATION: Laboratories
revealed sodium was 145, potassium was 3.5, chloride was 109,
bicarbonate was 17, blood urea nitrogen was 90, creatinine
was 1.5, and blood glucose was 124. ALT was 160, AST was
191, amylase was 524, alkaline phosphatase was 397, lipase
was 68, and total bilirubin was 12.2. White blood cell count
was 17.6, hematocrit was 22, and platelets were 82.
Prothrombin time was 13.6, partial thromboplastin time was
30.1, and INR was 1.2. A urinalysis had moderate leukocyte
esterase, moderate blood, negative nitrites, trace protein,
moderate bilirubin, greater than 50 white blood cells,
greater than 50 red blood cells, many bacteria, and 3 to 5
squamous epithelial cells.
PERTINENT RADIOLOGY/IMAGING: A computed tomography of the
head done on [**2-16**] showed minimal mucosal thickening
present in the right maxillary sinus and within the ethmoid
air cells; otherwise, no acute process.
A right upper quadrant ultrasound on [**2-19**] showed no
evidence of cholecystitis with septated fluid regions
representing metastatic spread adjacent to the liver.
An upper extremity ultrasound from [**2-24**] showed an
occluding thrombus in the right cephalic vein.
A abdominal ultrasound from [**3-2**] showed no intrahepatic
bowel ductal dilation. There was extensive metastatic
disease throughout the peritoneum. There was unchanged
bilateral hydronephrosis.
A chest x-ray done on [**3-18**] showed an increasing left
pleural effusion, retrocardiac, and a right lower lobe
opacity which may have been atelectasis versus pneumonia.
A sputum from [**3-15**] had greater than 25 white blood cells,
less than 10 epithelial cells, and had 4+ gram-negative rods,
yeast, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
A urine culture from [**3-16**] grew greater than 100,000
Klebsiella which was pan-resistant except for to meropenem
and Zosyn.
A urinalysis from [**3-16**] was negative for nitrites and
leukocyte esterase.
HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was admitted to the Medical
Intensive Care Unit.
She was initially put on a ventilator. She had a
tracheostomy and needed no sedation at that time. She did
require frequent suctioning for thick sputum. She was
treated for pneumonia with vancomycin. She was also started
on Zosyn for her urinary tract infection.
Her small-bowel obstruction was medically managed with a
nasogastric tube to intermittent suction. She was maintained
on a proton pump inhibitor for her history of
gastrointestinal bleeds.
The patient had a known right upper extremity deep venous
thrombosis and was not anticoagulated given her risk of a
gastrointestinal bleed.
The patient was noted to have worsening liver function when
compared with the laboratories from her previous admission.
This was felt to be secondary to her metastatic disease.
There was no further treatment possible for the patient's
ovarian cancer.
The patient remained encephalopathic. She did not respond to
voice or pain. This was felt to be secondary likely to an
anoxic brain injury as well as her multiple metabolic
abnormalities from her multiple medical problems.
The patient was noted to be anemic and was felt to be loosing
blood from gastrointestinal losses. Initially, she had
occult-blood positive nasogastric tube output. She was
transfused to keep her hematocrit above 21.
The patient was also noted to have renal failure. This was
secondary to obstructive disease from her ovarian cancer.
The patient was maintained on hydrocortisone for adrenal
insufficiency.
Initially, the patient was seen by the Gastroenterology
Service who felt that her gastrointestinal bleed should be
managed conservatively with proton pump inhibitors. Her
gastrointestinal bleeding slowed down somewhat. The patient
required multiple blood transfusions to keep her hematocrit
above 21.
It was felt that Ms. [**Known lastname 96805**] was dying from her terminal
metastatic ovarian cancer. Multiple meetings were held with
the family expressing this. The family wished to continue
supportive care; despite the extremely grim prognosis.
On [**3-23**], a family meeting was held, and the decision was
made that cardiopulmonary resuscitation was not indicated in
this patient. The following day, the patient had a large
amount of coffee-grounds emesis. Her nasogastric tube was
placed to intermittent suction.
The patient was weaned off the ventilator by [**3-25**]. She
did well on a tracheostomy mask and eventually was weaned
down to an FIO2 of 40%.
On [**3-26**], the patient was called out to the floor. The
patient remained stable on the floor for a few days. At no
point was she responsive to voice or pain. Her vital signs
were stable.
On [**3-29**], the patient was noted to have a large amount of
frank blood output from her nasogastric tube. Again, she
required transfusions to keep her hematocrit above 21.
Meetings were held with the family once again about the
patient's extremely grim prognosis. However, the patient's
family continued to want everything possible to be done.
On the night of [**3-29**], the patient was noted to have a
large amount of blood coming out of her tracheostomy tube.
This required aggressive suctioning which could not be
managed on the floor. At no time did the patient's oxygen
saturation fall below 93% on 40% tracheostomy mask.
An Ethics consultation was once again obtained. After much
discussion with the Ethics Service, Medicine attending, and
Medical Intensive Care Unit attending the decision was made
that the patient should be transferred to the Intensive Care
Unit for management of her airway.
While in the Intensive Care Unit, the patient was
aggressively suctioned. She was noted to have a coagulopathy
with an INR of 1.7. This was reversed with vitamin K. The
patient was transfused several units of platelets as well as
units of packed red blood cells to maintain a platelet count
of above 50 and a hematocrit level above 21.
A Gastroenterology consultation was obtained once again.
Once again, the Gastroenterology Service felt that there was
no intervention that was possible in this extremely ill and
terminal woman.
The patient's bleeding from her tracheostomy tube slowed
down. She was then called again out to the floor on [**3-31**].
On [**4-2**] she required an additional transfusion of platelets
to keep her platelet count above 50. Her hematocrit was
stable at that time at 27 to 28. At 7 p.m. that evening, the
patient was found expired. The patient was pronounced dead
at 7:15 p.m. The family and the attending (Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 665**]
were notified. The family declined an autopsy.

EKG:
irregular. rate 130 bpm. nl axis. narrow qrs. LVH. ST depression
in II, aVF, V4-6
CXR ([**2176-4-22**]):
There has been interval placement of endotracheal tube, which
lies 4 cm above the carina. Nasogastric tube is seen extending
below the diaphragm and out of view. Patient is slightly rotated
on current radiograph, limiting evaluation. Marked global
cardiomegaly is probably unchanged. Mediastinal widening is
difficult to assess given the degree of rotation. No focal
consolidations are seen, and there is no pleural effusion or
pneumothorax.
ABD US ([**2176-4-22**]):
Cholelithiasis without son[**Name (NI) 493**] evidence of cholecystitis.
ECHO ([**2176-4-23**]):The left atrium is mildly dilated. The right
atrium is moderately dilated. Left ventricular wall thickness,
cavity size, and systolic function are normal (LVEF>55%). Due to
suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality
cannot be fully excluded. The right ventricular cavity is
dilated. Right ventricular systolic function is normal.
[Intrinsic right ventricular systolic function is likely more
depressed given the severity of tricuspid regurgitation.] The
aortic valve leaflets appear structurally normal with good
leaflet excursion. No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral
valve leaflets are structurally normal. No mitral regurgitation
is seen. There is moderate pulmonary artery systolic
hypertension. There is no pericardial effusion.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [**2176-3-8**],
global
biventricular systolic function is similar. The severity of
tricuspid regurgitation and the estimated pulmonary artery
systolic pressure are now lower (may be related to technical
quality rather than a true decline).
XRAY SHOULDER and HIP and WRIST ([**2176-4-23**]):
Mild left acromioclavicular joint arthrosis. No fracture. No hip
fracture.
Wrist - Diffuse demineralization.
Mild degenerative change about the articular surfaces of the
scapholunate interval. The intercarpal spaces are normal on this
non-stress view.
CT HEAD ([**2176-4-23**]):
No intracranial hemorrhage. Mild chronic microvascular ischemic
changes.
CT CHEST ([**2176-4-23**]):
1. New large left pleural effusion, predominantly loculated.
2. Bronchomalacia bronchus intermedius. Possible air
extravasation.
3. Marked cardiomegaly, especially right atrial enlargement due
to tricuspid insufficiency. Pulmonary hypertension.
4. Bibasilar atelectasis. Right lower lobe pneumonia cannot be
excluded.
5. Mediastinal lymphadenopathy, slightly increased, most likely
reactive, but other causes such as neoplasm can not be excluded.
CT CHEST/ABD/PELVIS ([**2176-4-28**]):
1. Decrease in left pleural effusion, status post left pleural
catheter. Loculated effusion persists in the anterior pleural
space with new focal areas of air within the effusion that could
be secondary to recent intervention.
2. Increasing atelectasis with consolidation of the right lower
lung with opacification of the right lower lobe bronchus with
endobronchial secretions.
3. Persistent cardio megaly and small pericardial effusion.
4. Right renal cysts
Brief Hospital Course:
1. Hemoptysis/anemia:
In setting of supratherapeutic INR (22) and pulmonary
hypertension. Bleeding stopped once INR reversed. Bronchoscopy
initially showed large clot across the carina but no active
bleeding. Repeat bronchoscopy showed slight ooze from LLL. Again
no active bleeding but a large clot. IP subsequently came and
removed the clot. After INR reversal and clot removal, patient
no longer had hemoptysis and hematocrit remained stable.
2. Respiratory failure (pneumonia and pleural effusions):
Patient intubated in ED for hemoptysis. Extubated the following
morning but had increasing respiratory difficulty through out
the day and was re-intubated in early evening. In addition to
hemoptysis and heart failure, patient developed aspiration
pneumonia. Sputum showed GPC on gram stain but cultures negative
(taken while on levofloxacin). Vancomycin was added. CT scan of
the chest showed left loculated pleural effusion that was tapped
on [**4-25**] by IR showed 4+ PMNs but no organism. IP further
drained the L posterior loculated fluid (~900cc) and a pigtail
catheter was placed on [**2176-4-26**]. The pigtail catheter can be
removed when drainage stops. Pt developed fever on [**4-27**] despite
being on vanc/levofloxacin and aztreonam was added after
panculture was obtained. Repeat CT chest subsequently showed
improved L posterior pleural effusion, unchanged L loculated
pleural effusion (too small to tap) and increased opacities in
the RLL. Because all her sputum, pleural fluid cultures were
negative, vancomycin and aztreonam were discontinued on [**4-29**] and
[**4-30**], respectively. A 10 day course of Levaquin was completed.
Patient was extubated successfully on [**4-29**], and at the time of
transfer was satting well on room air.
3. Coagulopathy:
On coumadin for a fib. Her coumadin dose was increased a week
prior to admission. Unclear why INR so dramatically elevated.
Reversed with FFP and PO vitK. and had no longer hemoptysis.
4. Congestive heart failure, diastolic:
Initially BB/diuretics were held due to hypotension. They were
reintroduced once hemodynamically stable.
5. Atrial fibrillation:
Initially held BB given hypotension. Metoprolol was readded to
control her rate (and titrated up). Her elevated INR was
reversed as above. Given her recurrent falls per family and
hemoptysis, patient was not felt to be a good candidate for
anticoagulation; given her aspirin allergy, Plavix was started.
6. Renal failure:
Likely in the setting of blood loss and hypertension. SCr 1.0
at the time of discharge after peaking to 1.5 on admission.
7. Mental status change:
After arriving to the floor, the patient would become mildy
agitated at night and would also become disoriented. This was
felt to be secondary to narcotics provided earlier in her stay.
Her pain regimen was changed with the hope to minimize narcotics
use. Tylenol RTC was given and a Lidocaine patch was applied to
her left flank. Low doses of oxycodone IR and Ultram were used.
Geriatrics was consulted and recommended low dose of [**Hospital1 **] Haldol
and re-institution of Klonopin, given that the patient presented
on chronic benzoes. This worked well and the patient improved
greatly with no issues over the final 3-4 days of her stay.
8. Pain:
The patient presented with a history of chronic pain. Based on
prior PCP notes, multiple regimens have been tried with no only
moderate success. At the time of discharge, her pain regimen
was as outlined in #7. Consideration could be given to
eliminating oxycodone in favor of the Ultram if the latter is
working well.
9. Hypertension:
Presented on Nifedipine SR 60mg daily, HCTZ 25mg daily and
Metoprolol 100mg [**Hospital1 **]. The first two medications were not
restarted before discharge, but likely could be as the patient's
blood pressure was no optimized. The metoprolol was initially
held, then restrated and titrated to 100mg TID.
10. Obstructive sleep apnea:
CPAP settings are -- Mask Ventilation: Nasal CPAP w/ PSV (BIPAP)
Inspiratory pressure: 8 cm/h2o Expiratory pressure: 5 cm/h2o
Backup rate: 10 bth/min Supp O2: 2 L/min.
11. Hyperglycemia: Blood glucose 223 on admission finger sticks
as high as 160s thereafter. Sliding scale inslulin was used
during stay. [**Month (only) 116**] require oral hypoglycemics.

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: [**Known lastname **] [**Known lastname **] is a former 936
gram product of a 26 and [**3-8**] week gestation, twin pregnancy,
born to a 45 year old, Gravida II, now Para II woman.
PRENATAL SCREENS: Blood type 0 negative, antibody negative,
Rubella immune; rapid plasma reagent nonreactive; hepatitis B
surface antigen negative; hepatitis C negative; HIV negative,
group beta strep status unknown.
The maternal pregnancy was notable for hypothyroidism on
Synthroid, ureteral reflux, status post repair; fibroids,
status post resection and HSV with last lesion in [**2148-9-2**]. This was an in-[**Last Name (un) 5153**] fertilization pregnancy with
donor eggs. The donor was 26 years old. The pregnancy was
remarkable for dichorionic, diamniotic twins with concordant
growth. Cervical shortening diagnosed at 21 weeks, treated
with bed rest at home and then admitted on [**9-17**]. The
mother was beta complete as of [**9-20**]. There was
premature labor treated with Terbutaline and then magnesium
on [**9-21**]. There was a questionable premature rupture
of membranes on [**9-21**]. On the date of delivery, the
mother was noted to have advanced cervical dilatation with
breech/breech presentation. Intrapartum antibiotics were
given and the mother received a cesarean section under spinal
anesthesia.
Twin 1 emerged with initial cry but then poor respiratory
effort, requiring bagged mask ventilation. He was intubated
in the delivery room. Apgar scores were six at one minute
and seven at five minutes. The child was brought to the
Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: Physical examination was notable for a
premature male, orally intubated with poor perfusion. Birth
weight was 936 grams, which was the 50th percentile; length
was 35.5 cm (50th percentile); head circumference 24.5 cm (50
percentile). The infant is a non dysmorphic male with
overall appearance consistent with gestational age. The
anterior fontanel was soft, open and flat. Palate intact.
Fair aeration with crackly breath sounds, no murmur, a soft
abdomen. No hepatosplenomegaly. 1+ pulses throughout.
Normal male genitalia with the testes high in the canal, a
patent anus, no sacral dimple, no hip click; mild bruising on
the arms and a 1.5 by 5 cm birth mark/versus bruise in the
back mid thoracic region.
HOSPITAL COURSE: 1.) Respiratory: The patient was initially
intubated on settings of 20/5 at a rate of 25. He received
three doses of Surfactant. On day of life #3, he was weaned
to C-pap of 6 cm on room air. He was also started on caffeine
on day of life three. He weaned from C-pap to room air on day
of life #20. He remained on caffeine with mild apnea of
prematurity. The caffeine was discontinued on day of life
45. He has remained apnea free and, at the time of discharge,
he is breathing comfortably on room air with good
saturations, with no evidence of apnea of prematurity for
over two weeks.
2.) Cardiovascular: He initially required two normal saline
boluses and was started on Dopamine. He was weaned off
Dopamine on day of life number two. He continued to have
stable blood pressures. He never had a patent ductus
arteriosus. At the time of discharge, he has stable blood
pressures with good perfusion.
3.) Fluids, electrolytes and nutrition: The infant was
initially made n.p.o. and was started on intravenous
nutrition. Feeds were started on day of life 6 and gradually
advanced. He reached full feeds on day of life 13 and
calories were gradually increased to a maximum of 30 calories
per ounce. His growth continued to be good and he started
orally feeding. At the time of discharge, he was tolerating
full feeds of breast milk for Enfamil supplement at 24
calories per ounce. His discharge weight is 3.525 kg.
4.) Gastrointestinal: The infant developed unconjugated
hyperbilirubinemia of prematurity and was treated with
phototherapy from day of life #1 through day of life #8. His
maximum total bilirubin level was 4.9 over 0.3 on day of life
number one.
5.) Hematology: The infant did receive one blood transfusion
on day of life #12 for a low hematocrit.
6.) Infectious disease: Initial complete blood count showed
neutropenia as subsequent CBC on day of life one had an
impressive left shift. He was started on Ampicillin and
Gentamycin on day of life one and completed a 7 day course.
All cultures remained negative. A lumbar puncture was
performed on day of life number four which revealed zero red
blood cells and three white blood cells. Cultures in the
spinal fluid were also negative.
At the time of discharge, the patient has remained off
antibiotics with negative cultures.
7.) Neurology: Head ultrasounds were performed on day of
life number 3, day of life number 10 and day of life number
31. All head ultrasounds remained within normal limits.
8.) Ophthalmology: Ophthalmology examination was performed
on [**11-18**] and Mid- [**Month (only) 1096**] and revealed immaturity
bilaterally in zone three. Follow-up ophthalmology is
required.
DISCHARGE STATUS: Discharged to home.
PRIMARY PEDIATRICIAN: [**First Name8 (NamePattern2) 50100**] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) 10132**] at [**Hospital 3146**] Pediatrics.
CARE RECOMMENDATIONS:
Feedings: Continue breast milk and Enfamil 24 calories per
ounce and monitor growth.
MEDICATIONS:
Ferrous sulfate at 0.2 cc p.o. q. day.
Poly-Vi-[**Male First Name (un) **] 1 cc p.o. q. day.
Eye examination should be performed in 2 to 3 weeks.
State newborn screen was sent. Results are pending.
Automated auditory brain stem response screen prior to
discharge.
Car seat position screening: passed.
IMMUNIZATIONS: The patient received hepatitis B vaccine on
[**11-22**]. He received DTAP and HIB vaccines on [**12-6**]. He received IPV and pneumococcal conjugant vaccine on
[**12-5**]. Prior to discharge, a dose of Synagis vaccine
will be given.
IMMUNIZATIONS RECOMMENDED:
Synagis-RSV prophylaxis should be considered from [**Month (only) 359**]
through [**Month (only) 547**] for infants who meet any of the following three
criteria:
1.) Born at less than 32 weeks.
2.) Born between 32 and 35 weeks with two of the three
following: Day care during the RSV season, with a smoker in
the household, neuromuscular disease, airway abnormalities
or with preschool siblings.
3.) With chronic lung disease.
Influenza immunization should be considered annually in the
Fall for preterm infants with chronic lung disease once they
reach six months of age. Before this age, the family and
other caregivers should be considered for immunization
against influenza to protect the infant.
DISCHARGE DIAGNOSES:
Prematurity at 26 and 3/7 weeks gestation.
Sepsis ruled out.
Respiratory distress, resolved.
Apnea of prematurity, resolved.
Unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, resolved.

History of Present Illness:
HPI:Pt is a 63 yo with CAD s/p MI and stents, DM2, NASH
cirrhosis, and recent diagnosis of lymphomatoid granulomatosis
who presents from an OSH after GTC seizure.
He was diagnosed in [**Month (only) 404**] with large B-cell lymphoma, but on
further review, they have diagnosed him with probable
lymphomatoid granulomatosis. He received Rituxan-CHOP, but when
diagnosis changed, he was switched to Rituxan weekly only, with
last dose 6 days prior to admission. He has been told that
definitive treatment will require a bone marrow transplant. He
has been suffering from diarrhea for 2 months and has had 10
days of an unknown med for this at home. His PET scan
apparently showed disease mainly in lungs and possibly in liver.
he has never had head imaging apparently.
He was at home today and took his temp. He had a 103.2 fever
and his wife brought him to an OSH. En route, he stopped
talking and apparently started having GTC activity. They got to
the ED and he either stopped briefly or continued to convulse,
it is unclear. Ativan 3 mg was given with resolution. He was
intubated. ? left gaze preference. CT there showed 2 cm round
left temporal lobe mass with mild local edema. No shift or
brainstem involvement.
His temp there was 101.7. He got vanco, CTX, acyclovir, and 1 g

CT head [**5-1**]: 2 cm left medial temp lobe mass with ? vague ring
of
hyperdensity. Slight edema, but no shift or brainstem
involvement.
CXR [**5-1**]:
1. Endotracheal tube 3.3 cm above the carina. Nasogastric tube
in good position.
2. Low lung volumes with bibasilar consolidations - atelectasis
or pneumonia.
3. 1cm rounded opacity at the left lung base. Bilateral hilar
fullness out of proportion to the vasculature. Evaluation via
contrast enhanced CT is recommended.
4. Stones and surgical clips in the right upper quadrant.
Correlation with patient's surgical history is requested.
MRI Head [**5-2**]:
1. Left temporal lobe mass likely represents a focus of
infection. Rim enhancement and edema suggests an abscess, though
there is no restricted diffusion. Demyelinating process or
neoplasm are also possible, though the lesion is not enhancing.
2. No other lesions within the brain parenchyma.
3. Probable developing hydrocephalus.
Echocardiogram [**5-6**]:
LEFT ATRIUM: Mild LA enlargement.
RIGHT ATRIUM/INTERATRIAL SEPTUM: Normal RA size. Dynamic
interatrial septum.
LEFT VENTRICLE: Normal LV wall thickness, cavity size, and
systolic function (LVEF>55%). False LV tendon (normal variant).
RIGHT VENTRICLE: Normal RV chamber size and free wall motion.
AORTA: Normal aortic diameter at the sinus level. Normal
ascending aorta diameter. Normal aortic arch diameter. No 2D or
Doppler evidence of distal arch coarctation.
AORTIC VALVE: Normal aortic valve leaflets (3). No AS. No AR.
MITRAL VALVE: Normal mitral valve leaflets with trivial MR. No
MVP. [**Male First Name (un) **] of the mitral chordae (normal variant). No resting LVOT
gradient.
TRICUSPID VALVE: Normal tricuspid valve leaflets with trivial
TR. Normal PA systolic pressure.
PERICARDIUM: No pericardial effusion.
Conclusions:
The left atrium is mildly dilated. Left ventricular wall
thickness, cavity size, and systolic function are normal
(LVEF>55%). 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 regurgitation.
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 no
pericardial effusion.
IMPRESSION: No valvular pathology or pathologic flow identified.
Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. [**Known lastname 25338**] was admitted with seizures, fevers and a left
temporal lobe mass. He was placed on Dilantin and planning for
a tissue biopsy was begun. He was placed on Flagyl for concern
of C. dificile. He was extubated on HD2, and subsequently
transferred to the floor. He underwent radiographic studies,
which may be reviewed inthe results section. He underwent a
cardiac echocardiogram as part of an infectious etiology workup.
On HD7, he underwent a stereotactic brain biopsy, with a
preliminary diagnosis of lymphoma. With a tissue biopsy
obtained, he was begun on decadron. His postoperative CT scan
was unremarkable.
His dilantin levels were difficult to maintain, and he was
converted to Keppra. On HD7, he received 500 mg [**Hospital1 **]. The goal
dose is 1500 mg [**Hospital1 **], with a wean of dilantin.
He was then transferred to the medicine oncology service under
the care of Dr. [**First Name (STitle) 1557**].
Mr. [**Known lastname 25338**]' staples should be removed on [**2154-5-17**]. If he is
still an inpatient at that point, the Neurosurgery service would
be happy to remove them.

Date of Birth: [**2049-8-25**] Sex: M
Service: NSU
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: This 76-year-old male was
hospitalized from [**2130-2-26**] on the trauma
service, status post a fall backwards down five steps. He
suffered bilateral subdural hematomas and extensive
subarachnoid hemorrhage, and a left frontal intraparenchymal
hemorrhage with surrounding edema. He had an evacuation of a
right subdural hematoma on [**2125-10-2**], and developed
respiratory distress, required intubation, tracheostomy, and
eventually PEG placement. At that time, an MRI revealed a
new infarct around his right hemisphere and his left white
matter, which caused him to have left hemiparesis. He also
developed MRSA pneumonia while hospitalized, and atrial
fibrillation. Prior to discharge, he was found to be awake,
alert and following simple commands with decreased attention
on the left side and left hemiparesis.
On [**10-29**], while at his rehab facility, he was found to be
lethargic and arousable with only deep stimulation. He had a
head CT on [**10-30**] showing an increased subdural on the left
side and was brought to the Emergency Room with a fever of
103.8, and had a repeat head CT on arrival which showed
increased interval change of a chronic left subdural, now
with midline shift and mass effect.
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: CAD, status post MI in 09/[**2124**].
Peripheral vascular disease.
Hypertension.
Right occluded ICA.
Myelodysplasia.
Squamous cell skin cancer, status post XRT.
Atrial fibrillation which occurred during his
hospitalization.
CVA.
MRSA pneumonia.
ALLERGIES: No known drug allergies.
MEDICATIONS ON ADMISSION:
1. Lovenox 40 mg subcutaneous once daily.
2. Amiodarone 200 mg once daily.
3. Nicotine 14 mg transderm q 3 days.
4. Folic acid 1 mg once daily.
5. Epogen 4,000 micromilligrams 3 x week.
6. Seroquel 12.5 mg [**Hospital1 **].
7. Vitamin B12 100 po once daily.
8. Zoloft 50 mg 1 po once daily.
9. Lopressor 25 mg [**Hospital1 **].
SOCIAL HISTORY: He currently lives in a rehab facility. He
is married with children. Former smoker.
PHYSICAL EXAM: Temp on admission was 103.8, heart rate 119,
blood pressure 148/54, 100 percent on room air. HEENT: He
had a right frontal craniotomy site which was healing well.
Tracheostomy was in place. CARDIAC: He was tachycardic at
103 without a murmur, S1, S2. PULMONARY: Lungs were clear
bilaterally in his lower lobes. Abdomen was soft, nontender.
G-tube was in place. EXTREMITIES: He had a left scabbed
area over his Achilles tendon. Pupils were 4-2 mm, briskly
reactive on the right, and pupils were 3.5-2 mm, briskly
reactive, on the left. He blinked to threat. Appeared to
track when his eyes were opened manually. He would open his
eyes briefly to deep painful stimulation. He moved his right
hand spontaneously. Localized with his right arm. Withdrew
his bilateral lower extremities. He had slight withdrawal of
his left upper extremity, which was baseline for him. Toes
were upgoing. Did not appear to follow commands, though did
somewhat better with his family.
HOSPITAL COURSE: He was admitted to the neurosurgery
service. While in the Emergency Room, he received a medicine
consult. He had a full fever panculture work-up and was
started on empiric antibiotic coverage with vancomycin,
ceftaz and Flagyl. He had a chest x-ray which did not show
any pneumonia at that time. He received a packed red blood
cell transfusion and volume resuscitation. He was admitted
to the Intensive Care Unit, where he went to the operating
room on [**2125-10-31**] and underwent a left subdural evacuation.
Postoperatively, he was moving his bilateral lower
extremities spontaneously. He had trace movement in his
right upper extremities. His pupils were [**3-27**]. His blood
pressure was kept strictly below 130.
Postoperatively, his head CT essentially showed little change
of the blood evacuation on the left side, though he seemed to
be somewhat more responsive neurologically postop. His first
blood cultures came back gram-positive cocci in pairs and
chains. Medicine recommended just continuing him on
vancomycin and discontinuing his Flagyl and ceftaz. He
developed a rash on [**2125-11-1**], which a dermatology consult
was obtained. He had multiple nonfollicular based
erythematous papules on the left side of his trunk, which was
felt to be miliaria crystallina which was thought to be
acquired from the blockage of sweat ducts. He was treated
with Lidex gel which cleared up the rash and was followed up
with dermatology approximately one week later without any new
recommendations.
On [**2125-11-2**], his subdural drain was removed. On
[**2125-11-3**], a repeat head CT showed little change in the
amount of blood on the subdural site. However, he remained
awake, alert, followed simple commands, interacting with his
family. He also had an IVC filter placed on [**2125-11-3**].
On [**2125-11-5**], he was transferred to the neuro stepdown,
where he again was opening his eyes to stimulation, moving
purposely on the right. He also had a PICC line placed on
[**11-5**] in anticipation of long-term antibiotics. Infectious
disease was consulted on [**11-5**], as his blood cultures showed
Enterococcus in his blood, which was VRE 4/4 bottles, with 2
speciated as enterococcus, [**1-28**] with MRSA. ID recommended
starting linezolid 600 mg IV q 12 h, and discontinuing
vancomycin. On [**11-5**], they also recommended that Mr. [**Known lastname 3805**]
[**Last Name (Titles) 19806**] a TTE to rule out endocarditis, an ultrasound of his
PEG to rule out fluid collection, and an ultrasound of his
right IJ to rule out any hematoma. Ultrasound of his upper
extremity showed no right internal jugular vein clot
detected. Echo results indicated a moderate risk for
endocarditis, and they recommended prophylaxis, and he will
be treated with linezolid for 6 weeks. Surveillance blood
cultures were also obtained on [**11-5**] and [**11-6**].
Due to the echocardiogram results, we had asked to have a TEE
done; however, Mrs. [**Known lastname 3805**] did not want Mr. [**Known lastname 3805**] to [**Known lastname 19806**] a
TEE at this time. She understood the risks and benefits, and
personally discussed these risks and benefits with the TEE
Fellow.
On [**11-9**], his nutrition was addressed, and he had already
been started on tube feedings. However, the goal was changed
and tube feedings to Impact with fiber to a goal rate of 70
cc/h to provide 1680 kcal/D. His blood cultures on
[**2125-11-6**] were final for no growth.
On [**11-10**], he was noted to have some left shoulder weakness.
He was seen by orthopedics who evaluated the patient,
obtained an AP and lateral shoulder film which showed no
acute fracture or dislocation, and recommended some physical
therapy.
Mr. [**Known lastname 3805**] was noted to have skin breakdown over his coccyx
area for which he has been having a DuoDerm placed. He also
is currently at this recording receiving a podiatry consult
for left Achilles tendon erythema and eschar. They also
recommend that he have a possible KinAir bed for his skin
breakdown.
Neurologically, prior to discharge Mr. [**Known lastname 3805**] was following
commands, awake, alert, moving his right side greater than
his left. A repeat head CT was done prior to discharge and
felt that his left-sided subdural hematoma had much improved
and was close to resolving.
DISCHARGE INSTRUCTIONS: He needs aggressive physical and
occupational therapy. He needs 6 weeks of linezolid with q
week CBC. He should follow-up with ID, Dr. [**First Name8 (NamePattern2) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern1) 11382**],
phone number [**Telephone/Fax (1) 457**]. He should follow-up with Dr.
[**Last Name (STitle) 1132**] in 2 weeks with a head CT. Any changes in his
neurologic status, or if he develops any fever, he should
return back to [**Hospital6 256**] Emergency
Room.
DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS:
1. Amiodarone 200 mg po once daily.
2. Folic acid 1 mg po once daily.
3. Quetiapine fumarate 25 mg [**1-26**] tablet po bid.

Imaging:
========
[**4-1**] CHEST (PA & LAT) - Calcified pleural plaque is better
assessed on the prior CT. There is mild interstitial edema with
no large effusions or pneumothorax. No signs of pneumonia.
Cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable. Calcified
tracheobronchial tree noted. Bony structures are intact
.
[**4-1**] CT ABD & PELVIS WITH CO - No acute intra-abdominal or
pelvic process. No evidence of retroperitoneal hemorrhage.
Stable gallbladder polyp. Stable gallbladder polyps versus a
focus of adenomyomatosis within the gallbladder fundus. Sigmoid
diverticulosis. Patchy bibasilar opacities within the lung
bases, with subpleural scar formations and bronchiectasis within
the lung bases.

IMPRESSION:
1. No evidence of acute intracranial hemorrhage or mass effect.
Slightly
dense appearance of the cortex lateral to the Sylvian fissure (
se 2, im 12) is likely related to volume averaging rather than
hemorrhage; a follow up can be considered if necessary. No prior
CT studies are available.
2. Bilateral mastoid opacification from fluid/mucosal thickening

CTA [**2195-4-18**] Abd-Pelvis
IMPRESSION:
1. No contrast extravasation to suggest GI bleeding.
2. Stable gallbladder polyp and fundal adenomyomatosis.
3. Colonic diverticulosis without evidence of diverticulitis.
4. Small left adrenal adenoma.
5. Unchanged Focal celiac artery and aortic dilation as
described above.
.
Colonoscopy:
============
[**3-1**] Colonoscopy prior to this admission:
Abnormal mucosa in the colon. Diverticulosis of the sigmoid
colon. A small posterior rectal fissure was noted in the anal
canal. This was not bleeding. Blood was noted throughout the
entire colon.
Otherwise normal colonoscopy to cecum.
.
[**2195-4-3**] colonoscopy:
Non bleediong diverticulosis of the whole colon. Bleeding
angioectasias in the cecum treated with APC. Polyp in the
transverse colon. Blood and stool throughout colon. Non bleeding
posterior anal fissure.
.
[**2195-4-13**] colonoscopy:
Blood in the whole colon. Diverticulosis of the sigmoid colon
and descending colon. Ulcers in the cecum. A large adherent
blood clot was found in the cecum with surrounding oozing of
bright red blood. Given the risk of uncontrollable bleeding in
the setting of low platelets, the clot was not removed.
Otherwise normal colonoscopy to cecum
Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. [**Known lastname 73078**] is 79 year old pleasant woman with a Past medical
history significant for MDS with AML transformation on Dacogen,
diverticulosis, known cecal AVMs admitted from clinic on [**2195-4-1**]
in the setting of a transfusion reaction to platelets with
thrombocytopenia who was noted to develop bright red blood per
rectum with acute hematocrit drop who underwent repeat
colonoscopy showing non-bleeding diverticulosis of the entire
colon and bleeding angioectasias of the cecum treated with Argon
Plasma coagulation. She required a second colonoscopy for
repeated bloody bowel movements which showed a clot adherent to
the cecum. She remained stable for a while then had frequent
bloody bowel movements again which was controlled by amicar drip
for 8 hours. Gradually her platelets started to increase. After
these events, she remained stable and was discharged home in
stable condition. She will require HLA matched platelet
transfusions in the future if needed.
.
# cecal AVMs: She was transferred to the ICU twice for bright
red blood per rectum. The patient developed BRBPR, and was found
to have cecal AVMs on colonoscopy s/p APC. Specifically, repeat
colonoscopy demonstrated cecal angioectasias that were actively
bleeding, non-bleeding colonic diverticula and small polyp.
Hemostasis achieved with Argon Plasma coagulation therapy on
[**2195-4-3**]. During her stay she required several units of PRBC and
platelets. After remaining stable, she was transferred back to
the floor however she had the same situation again and was
transferred back to the ICU where she had her second colonoscopy
which showed a clot adherent to the cecum with oozing around the
clot. The clot was not removed (not amenable to endoscopic
management). GI recommended surgical consult for possible
resection however given her underlying disease and low platelet
counts, they felt this will not be a favorable management. After
having stable H/H, she was transferred back to the floor. While
on the floor, she had a few bloody bowel movements however the
night of [**4-17**] she had total of 450 cc bloody watery stools which
required amicar drip for 8 hours (her platelets were in the
40-50's). CTA was negative. Following this, she did not have any
further significant bloody stools. She remained vitally stable
with stable H/H and gradually rising platelet count.
.
# thrombocytopenia: Secondary to chemotherapy and MDS/AML
concerns. Concern for consumptive process following transfusion
of platelets in the setting of possible ITP vs. TTP however
Hematologic smear was without schistocytes and there was no
evidence of renal failure or neurologic concerns; no fevers. The
patient also had two transfusion reactions to platelets when
first admitted. She was premedicated with anti-histamines. While
the patient was actively bleeding, she was also given Amicar (2
grams IV with 1gram/hour IV infusion overnight on [**2195-4-2**]). This
was repeated over the night of [**4-17**] as above. She was found to
have a positive PRA and required HLA matched platelets for all
subsequent transfusions. Her twin sister was tested at Red Cross
for potential candidate to donate platelets for her sister
however since she takes aspirin and plavix, this was not a
suitable option. Of note, her platelet count was improving
already and did not require further platelet transfusions.
Platelet count was in the 90's upon discharge.
.
# transfusion reaction/PRA positive: The patient had transfusion
reaction to platelet transfusion (once in clinic, and once while
on the floor). She was premedicated with famotidine, benadryl,
and hydrocortisone. A blood bank work up was initiated, and the
patient was given group specific platelets. She was found to be
PRA positive and requires HLA matched platelets. However, during
her second episode of BRBPR on [**4-12**], it was found that there was
no more HLA matched platelets available in [**Location (un) 86**] area. Red
Cross was contact[**Name (NI) **] for more HLA matched platelets. Sister was a
potential donor however it wasn't suitable given her
anti-platelet therapy as above. She did not require further
platelet transfusions once her platelet count started to
increase.
.
# MDS with AML transformation: While the patient was on the
floor, it was noticed that her blast count was trending up and
her neutrophil count was trending down. It was then decided to
start her on second cycle of Dacogen (day 1 = [**2195-4-8**]). The
patient tolerated the Dacogen well, with little side effects.
12% blast cells on peripheral blood upon discharge.
.
# GERD: The patient was continued on her home PPI.
.
# constipation: The patient has a history of severe
constipation, however, her home medications were held in the
setting of her BRBPR and then restarted upon discharge given
resolution of bloody bowel movements.
.
Transitional Issues:
- The patient had transfusion reaction to platelets; a blood
bank work up was initiated and she was found to be PRA positive;
she will require HLA matched platelets for all subsequent
transfusions.

Discharge Instructions:
Dear Ms. [**Known lastname 73078**],
It was a pleasure taking care of you while you were hospitalized
at [**Hospital1 18**]. You were admitted to the hospital because you had a
transfusion reaction after getting platelets at clinic. We did
some tests and found that you will need specially screened
platelets from now on because your body reacts to normal
platelets.
While you were here, you also developed some bleeding from your
rectum. You were transferred to the intensive care unit and
they gastrointestinal doctors looked into your intestines with a
camera and found some areas of bleeding called AV malformations
that were clipped. After this, you were sent to the floor then
sent back to the ICU when you had further bleeding. Second
colonoscopy was done which showed a large clot attached to your
colon in the same area where the AVM's were clipped. Your blood
level was stable as well as your blood pressure and you were
transferred to the floor.
While on the floor, you had a few loose bloody stools that
subsequently resolved. Your diet was gradually advanced and you
tolerated it well prior to discharge. Your platelets gradually
increased and it was in the 80's on your discharge day.
The surgeons evaluated you for possible surgical removal of part
of your colon, however they felt it is unsafe to do surgery for
the moment. We did not discharge you on Amicar which is a clot
stabilizer medication since you did not have further bloody
stools, your blood level was stable and your platelets were
gradually increasing.
We also noticed some changes in your blood work that made us
think that your leukemia was acting up again; because of that we
started you on another five day cycle of chemotherapy. You
tolerated the chemo well.
.
While in the hosiptal, it was noted that occasionally your blood
pressure was high and you were started on a medication for brief
time. However, given your GI bleeds, this was held. We will not
discharge you at the moment with anti-hypertensive medication.
We did the following changes in your medication list:
- Please stop allopurinol
Please continue the rest of your home medications the same way
you were taking them at home prior to admission.
Your PICC line was removed prior to discharge.
It will be important for you to follow up with Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) **].
Please follow with your appointments as illustrated below.

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. [**Known lastname 68553**] was admitted and underwent hepatic artery aneurysm
repair under general anesthesia with a tohoracic epidural on
[**2146-6-16**]. He tolerated the procedure well, was extubated and was
transfered to the CVICU postoperativey. He was hemodynamically
stable but did have some brief episodes of bradycardia which
resolved on their own. On POD 1 he was noted to have some
elevated LFTs, as expected. He was quite stable and was
transfered to the VICU for further recovery. In the vicu he
remained hemodynamically stable with good pain control. On POD 2
he tolerated a clear liquid diet and was OOB with assistance. A
nutrition consult was obtained given his recent weight loss and
preoperative status of having poor nutrition. He was advanced to
a regular diet on POD 3 with ensure supplements which he
tolerated well. He was transfered to the floor on POD 3 as well.
On POD 4 his epidural was removed. He tolerated PO pain meds
quite well. Later that day his foley was removed, and he voided
a small amount, however, by the evening he had not voided in
several hours and a bladder scan showed over 800cc of residual,
hence a foley was re placed. He was also started on flomax . His
jp drain was also removed on POD 4 without difficulty. He was
hemodynamically stable and able to ambulate without assistance.
On POD 5 he was tolerating his diet well and felt comfortable
with his foley and leg bag. He was evaluated by PT and found
stable to go home. He will follow up with his PCP on friday for
foley removal.

History of Present Illness:
This a [**Age over 90 **]y/o female with a history of COPD, hypertension,
gastroespohageal reflux who presented with shortness of breath
and dyspnea on exertion X 3 days.
Per nursing home records, the patient was reported to have had
10cc of hemoptysis. O2 sat was 92%. Patient reports substernal
chest pain radiating to the back, lasting seconds. By history
the pain is pleuritic, because coughing makes it worse.
.
On presentation peak flow was 140; improved to 240 after 1st neb
in the ED. Chest X-ray showed multilobular consolidation. CT-A
showed no PE or obstructive bronchial lesion, but central
bilateral consolidation secondary to pneumonia and CHF was
noted. An EKG showed TWI in I and avL, and in V4-V6, unchanged
from previous. Trop was 0.10 in the setting of renal

Chest X-ray [**2174-11-25**]
1. Multilobar consolidation, which could reflect asymmetrical
edema and/or multilobar pneumonia. A postobstructive process in
the right middle lobe cannot be excluded. By report, the patient
is scheduled to undergo CTA, which will be helpful for more
complete characterization of these findings.
2. Bilateral pleural effusions, right greater than left.
.
CT-A [**2174-11-25**]
1. No parenchymal mass lesion or mediastinal lymphadenopathy. No
acute pulmonary embolus.
2. Central bilateral consolidation mainly along the inferior
hilar regions with patchy areas of consolidation in the upper
and lower lobes. Enlargement of the central arterial pulmonary
vasculature and mild cardiac enlargement suggestive of
background pulmonary hypertension. Small bibasilar pleural
effusions. These findings may all be due to cardiac failure with
pulmonary hypertension. Infective consolidation should be also
considered depending on the current clinical correlation.
Interval followup post-treatment initially with chest x-ray is
advised.

The patient was initially maintained on ceftriaxone and
azithromycin for community acquired pneumonia. Because the
patient came from rehabilitation, the decision was made to
change the antibiotic coverage to Levaquin. Her treatment also
consisted of Q2 nebulizer treatments, oxygen and her home dose
of prednisone. On the morning of HD #2, the patient's course
was complicated by transient desaturation to 88% on 6L NC and a
shovel mask. On exam the patient had rhonchorous breath sounds,
difficulty mobilizing her secretions. O2 sats improved with
coughing to 91%. Despite improvement in her O2 sats, the
patient continued to have labored breathing. She received 10 of
IV lasix and nebulizer treatments. O2sats improved to 95-99%
on the same amount of O2. Respiratory therapy recommmended
humidified air to help loosen the secretions. Patient course
deteriorated on the morning of HD #3. 02sats were initially
stable in the 90s. The patient became tachypneic breathing at an
average rate of 30. Antibiotic coverage was changed to
Ceftazadine because prelim sputum cultures grew gram negative
rods. Despite lasix, morphine and frequent nebulizer treatments,
patient's O2sats decreased to 86% on 6LNC and 100%NRB. The
decision was made to transfer her to the [**Hospital Unit Name 153**] for further
management.
.
In the [**Hospital Unit Name 153**], the pt continued to desaturate to the 80s on NC and
FM. She had one episode of desaturation to the 80s which did not
resolve after one minute. CXR showed mucus plugging of the
entire left lung. Pt was placed on her right side and had
rigorous chest PT, and saturations improved to low 90s. Family
was called in. After several days of pt's respiratory status not
improving, pt's status was discussed with family, who decided to
make her CMO. Pt was placed on morphine gtt and died on [**2174-12-5**]
am surrounded by her family.
.
2. Leukocytosis:
Pt's leukocytosis was likely [**2-2**] to pneumonia and UTI. Pt was
afebrile throughout admission. Pt was placed on levaquin, and
blood cultures were negative.
.
3. Hemoptysis:
Pt had episodes of hemoptysis on the floor, but not in the [**Hospital Unit Name 153**].
This was likely [**2-2**] pneumonia. Pt's Hct stayed stable, and stool
was guaiac negative.
.
4. Chest pain:
Pt had episodes of fleeting, pleuritic chest pain on the floor,
with Trop 0.10, which was likely due to renal insufficiency. The
family and patient agreed not to have any intervention for any
possible cardiac issues.
.
5. Acute renal failure:
Pt's acute renal failure was likely due to a dye load with the
CT. Cr improved with fluids.
.
6. HTN:
Pt was continued on Isordil and norvasc.
.
7. CHF:
Pt had evidence of CHF on CXR, with trace edema on the posterior
aspect of her legs. She was continued on daily lasix prn.

Pertinent Results:
Cardiac catheterization ([**2117-3-31**]):
1. Coronary angiography of this right dominant circulation
revealed
severe three vessel disease. The LMCA had a 60% narrowing at its
origin
with pressure damping noted during engagement of the artery. The
LAD had
serial 80-90% lesions in the mid vessel and diffuse luminal
irregularities that narrowed to 30-40% in the distal vessel. The
RCA also had diffuse
luminal irregularities and a focal 70% lesion in the distal
vessel. The
RCA supplied a moderate sized PDA that had a 50% lesion.
2. Resting hemodynamics revealed mildly elevated left
ventricular
filling pressures with an LVEDP of 18 mmHg and a mean PCWP of 13
mmHg in
the setting of normal systemic arterial blood pressure. There
was
evidence of mild pulmonary artery hypertension with PA pressures
of
38/17/26 mmHg. No gradient across the aortic valve was detected.
3. Left ventriculography demonstrated mild anterolateral
hypokinesis
with a calculated LVEF of 49%. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation
was seen.

HISTORY: The patient is a 74-year-old gentleman with right
hemifacial paralysis status post posterior fossa
decompression on [**2134-5-14**] complicated by postoperative
delirium and bilateral subdural hygromas. The
patient was operated on at [**Hospital3 **] Hospital.
Postoperatively, he was transferred to
the ICU down at [**Hospital3 **] Hospital and the family requested
transfer to [**Hospital1 69**] for further
management.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: The patient is pleasant, sleepy, but
arousable. Pupils are under 3 mm. His chest is clear to
auscultation. His cardiac status is regular rate and rhythm,
no murmur, rub or gallop. He is awake, alert, oriented times
one. He has a left-sided weakness, left upper greater than
lower extremity weakness, with right facial due to the Bell's
palsy and facial paralysis. He moves the right side
purposely and spontaneously. The left upper extremity is now
anti-gravity strength with poor fine motor coordination.
Left lower extremity is anti-gravity strength on the left
side as well.
HOSPITAL COURSE: The patient was monitored in the ICU for
four or five days. Initially had drains in place from his
subdural hygroma incisions. Those were DC'd. His operative
incision is clean, dry, and intact, and the staples will be
removed prior to discharge. Mental status: He was lethargic,
but easily arousable, confused at times. Would follow
commands on the right side. Had some garbled speech which
has greatly improved. His heart rate was in the 50's to
60's, normal sinus rhythm with episodes of sinus tachycardia
up to the 140's. He was started on PO Lopressor for that.
CPK's were sent and they were negative.
He was in the ICU until [**2134-5-28**]. He was sent to the regular
floor. He opened his eyes spontaneously and his pupils were
5 down to 3 mm. He has a right ptosis. He, again, had
anti-gravity strength on the left side, which was improved
from a pretty dense paralysis on admission. Head MRI was
negative for stroke. Head CT showed inproved bilateral subdural
hygromas. He was seen by Physical Therapy and Occupational
Therapy and found to require acute rehab.
He was discharged in stable condition with improving
neurologic status.
DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS:
1. Famotidine 20 mg PO b.i.d.
2. Metoprolol, 50 mg PO b.i.d.
3. Heparin, 5,000 units SQ q 12 hours.
4. Tylenol, 650 PO q 4 hours p.r.n..

Chief Complaint:
Cholangitis
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
ERCP
History of Present Illness:
Mr. [**Known lastname 8029**] is a 74 M with a medical history notable for
cholecystectomy and post-cholecystectomy cholangitis requiring
ERCP in [**2144**] at [**Hospital1 18**]. He reports intermittent biliary colic for
the past year. However, on [**2-21**] he noted a [**11-25**] RUQ pain that
did not improve. He became weak and delirious and his wife
called 911. [**Name2 (NI) **] initially presented to his local hospital and
shortly after arrival he spiked a fever and his SBP dropped to
the 80s. His initial evaluation was notable for the following:
ALT 722, AST 365, alk phos 241, lipase 470, bili 3.1, and a CT
scan that revealed common bile duct dilation and possible
gallstones. He received IV fluids, Vancomycin, and Zosyn. His
blood pressure was fluid-responsive and did not require
vasoactive medications. He was transferred to the [**Hospital1 18**] ED.
On arrival to the [**Hospital1 18**] ED he recieved additional IV fluids and
Unasyn. He then went for ERCP on [**2154-2-22**]. The ERCP revealed a
single 15 mm round stone that was partially-obstructing and pus
in the biliary tree. A double pigtail biliary stent was placed
and he was transferred to the ICU for closer monitoring. While
in the ICU he required no vasoactive medications to support his
blood pressure and was not intubated. One of his admission blood
cultures grew gram negative rods and his antibiotics were
changed from Unasyn to cefepime and gentamycin. Other active
issues in the ICU included a rising white blood cell count
without additional fevers, acute renal failure that improved
with IV fluids, and left upper extremity swelling of unclear
etiology.
On arrival to the floor he noted no abdominal pain. He had no
nausea and was hungry.
Review of Systems: Pain assessment on arrival to the floor: 0/10
(no pain). No recent illnesses other than above. No SOB, cough,
or chest pain. No urinary symptoms. No arthralgias or joint
swelling. Other systems reviewed in detail and all otherwise
negative.

ERCP ([**2154-2-22**]): Previous sphincterotomy noted. Cannulation of the
biliary duct was successful and deep with a sphincterotome using
a free-hand technique. Contrast medium was injected resulting in
complete opacification. A single 15 mm round stone that was
causing partial obstruction was seen at the biliary tree with
pus suggesting cholangitis
A 5cm by 10FR double pigtail biliary stent was placed
successfully
U/S LUE ([**2154-2-23**]): No evidence of DVT in the left upper
extremity. Non-visualization of the left basilic vein.

History of Present Illness:
74 yo f with hx of dementia, transfered from OSH today after
cardiac arrest. Pt was found to be complaining of feeling dizzy
and SOB at her NH, then was found down. CPR was initiated at the
NH, she was intubated in the field and given atropine x2 and epi
x 4 enroute to OSH. She arrived with PEA arrest. She was coded,
after multiple rounds of atropine and epi, went to VF and was
shocked x 1, then returned to PEA. After more CPR and epi, dopa,
calcium gluconate, and bicarb the pt returned to a sinus tach
with perfusion. Cooling began in ER with return of pulse. Code
lasted about 30 min in ER + time in field. After CPR she had a
subclavial line attempted on the right resulting in a
pneumothorax. She was on 3 pressors, then a chest tube was
placed with BP improvment. CT of the chest showed a large almost
saddle right sided PE with multiple small right PEs. She had a
femoral line placed. She was started on heparin due to the PE.
Pt was given flagyl, zosyn. She had possible seizure activity
prior to trasfer and was given ativan x 1. ABG at 19:55 had a ph
of 7.04.
.
Upon arrival in the MICU, she had a BP in 80s, that then
declined to the 50s. She was on dopa gtt, levo gtt, and heparin.
Neo was started on arrival with improvment of BP. A-line was
placed. ABG showed pH still at 7.01 and PO2 of 40, so bicarb was
restarted.

**FINAL REPORT [**2130-1-27**]**
URINE CULTURE (Final [**2130-1-27**]):
GRAM NEGATIVE ROD(S). ~4000/ML.
Blood Cultures: Pending
Studies:
The current study demonstrates the right chest tube in place
with no apparent right pneumothorax, although small pneumothorax
can be obscured by significant amount of subcutaneous air. The
ET tube tip is 5 cm above the carina. The NG tube tip is in the
proximal stomach and might be advanced another 10 cm. There is a
lucency surrounding the aortic arch that potentially might
represent small amount of pneumothorax. Minimal left apical
pneumothorax also cannot be excluded. Currently, the amount of
subcutaneous air is higher on the left than on the right. The
left basal opacity has some triangular appearance and most
likely a combination of consolidation and atelectasis of the
left lower lobe.
Brief Hospital Course:
74 yo f with hx of dementia, now s/p cardiac arrests in setting
of PE and PEA arrest, with pneumothorax s/p chest tube, now
intubated and unresponsive having myoclonic jerks.
# Hypotension/Cardiac arrest: Secondary to large PE. Pt had a
prolonged arrest and is continuing to have hypotension. On
admission patient was continued on Levophed and Dopamine,
Neosynepherine was started. CE at the OSH and her CK here are
elevated, likely secondary to her CPR, but ischemia can not be
excluded. She was at risk for hypoperfussion induced cardiac
ischemic injury. Pt cooled to temp of 92 at OSH, now at 94.
However, due to PE and prolonged code and time since her code
patient was not a good candidate for cooling protocol given
concern for coagulopathy and overall poor outcome. Patient was
monitored on telemetry and started on a bicarb gtt given her
profound acidosis. The patient's extremly poor prognosis was
shared with the family and it was determined that the patient
would be made Comfort Measures Only. Patient pasted shortly
after being made CMO.
# Pulmonary embolism: Pt had a large right PE and this likely
triggered the cardiac arrest. She was started on heparin at the
OSH. Unclear her risk factors for PE or if she had any clots in
the past. Continued heparin gtt. No thrombolysis given extremely
poor prognosis.
# Altered mental status/myoclonic jerks: Pt was unresponsive to
all stimuli except a minimal amount of pupilary constriction.
This was likely [**1-31**] both her prolonged hypoperfusion during her
code likely causing anoxic brain injury and her elevated lactate
causing a significant metabolic acidosis. Pt is overbreathing
the [**Last Name (LF) **], [**First Name3 (LF) **] she does retain some brain function. Whe initially
had jerks on her left side but these generalized over the course
of her admission. Unclear if she had a hx of sz, since the pt
was on depakote at her NH. Her head CT at [**Hospital1 **] had no
significant findings, but was likely too soon after her event to
show anoxic injury. Sedation was held and metabolic
abnormalities were corrected.
# Acidosis: Metabolic acidosis and respiratory acidosis. Lactate
is likely causing her AG acidosis. It was 8 on arrival. She is
also CO2 retaining despite her elevated RR. Bicarb gtt continued
until pH>7.2.
# Pneuomthorax: Secondary to subcalvian line placement attempt
on right. Chest tube is currently in place. CXR with decreasing
pneumo. Pt has extensive subcutanteous air on chest wall.
Further Pneumothorax noted on the left surronding the aortic
arch. Left sided pneumothorax was small and did not reguire
chest tube.
# Coagulopathy: Likely in setting of shock, fibrinogrin likely
low due to clot formation. Coags and bleeding monitored.
# Hypertension: Held home lasix, atenolol, nifedipine, and
lisinopril
# Dementia: Unsure her baseline, currently unresponsive.

MRA Cervical Spine [**2145-1-24**]
FINDINGS: The examination was performed with the patient's neck
in a collar. This prevented using an optimal coil configuration
and resulted in a low signal to noise for this study. Within
these limitations, no vascular injuries are identified.
Specifically, the carotid arteries and their cervical branches,
and the vertebral arteries appear to be patent. Although no
stenoses or pseudoaneurysms are detected, sensitivity for such
abnormalities will be severely limited by the technical
limitation as discussed above. Sensitivity for mural dissection
will be quite low, although no such dissections are detected.
CONCLUSION: Limited study for the reasons described above. No
evidence of arterial injury on this limited examination.
MRI Cervical Spine [**2145-1-24**]
FINDINGS: This study is of very poor quality due to extremely
limited signal- to-noise ratio secondary to the lack of
employment of the neck coil, due to the patient's injuries, as
well as the marked anterior subluxation of C7 upon T1.
Within these limitations, the grade 3 traumatic subluxation of
C7 upon T1 is clearly demonstrated. There may be a small amount
of cord edema immediately cephalad to this level, but again,
interpretation is extremely limited by virtue of the reduced
signal-to-noise ratio. For similar reasons, it is not possible
to state with certainty if there is any intramedullary hematoma
present.
At C3-4, there is a shallow left paracentral disc protrusion
causing mild indentation upon the left ventrolateral cord
margin.
At C4-5, there is a shallow posterior disc protrusion causing
mild cord compression, exacerbated by congenital narrowing of
the AP diameter of the bony spinal canal. Uncovertebral spurs
appear to produce moderate left and prominent right foraminal
stenosis.
At C5-6, there is a probable shallow posterior spondylytic ridge
along with infolding of the ligamentum flavum, creating a
moderate degree of spinal cord compression, exacerbated by
congenital narrowing of the AP diameter of the bony spinal
canal.
At C7-T1, the cord is sharply angulated over the grade III
anterior subluxation. The wedge fracture of T1 is visible, but
not nearly as clearly as that seen on the accompanying CT scan.
There is marked splaying of the C7 and T1 spinous processes.
There is widening of the epidural space anterior to the thecal
sac at the C7 level. It is likely that this represents the
consequences of the subluxation, although an accompanying
hematoma in this area cannot be excluded.
Best seen on the STIR images is marked edema within the
posterior paraspinal soft tissues, including the interspinous
region between C7 and T1. Clearly, these findings represent the
effects of trauma, including disruption of the intraspinous
ligament at C7-T1. There does also appear to be edema extending
between the C1 posterior arch and the C2 spinous process, again
likely representing some ligamentous injury. There is
prevertebral soft tissue swelling seen only at the level of the
C7-T1 subluxation.
CONCLUSION:
1. Grade 3 traumatic subluxation of C7 upon T1.
2. Technically very limited study, precluding precise analysis
of the signal pattern of the spinal cord by either edema or
hematoma. These findings were discussed in detail at the time of
this examination by the resident, Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 12919**], with the team
caring for the patient.
CT C spine [**2145-1-24**]
IMPRESSION:
1. Grade [**3-14**] traumatic subluxation of C7 on T1 with anterior
wedge compression fracture of T1 vertebral body, with bilateral
locked facets of C7 on T1. Widening of the interspinous distance
between C7 and T1 at this level suggests underlying ligamentous
injury.
2. Possible right T1 transverse process fracture along with
anterior and posterior tubercle fractures at this level. Right
C7 transverse process fracture. Possible right T1 and T2
right-sided rib fractures which are minimally displaced.
These findings were discussed in detail with the trauma team
shortly after examination acquisition. The diagnosis of
"perched" was changed to "locked" facets after attending review,
by which time the patient was already in the operating room for
spinal surgery.
[**2145-1-27**] Ultrasound bilateral lower extremity
Findings: Grayscale, color flow and Doppler images of both lower
extremities were obtained. The common femoral veins, superficial
femoral veins, and popliteal veins demonstrate normal
compressibility, respiratory variation in venous flow and venous
augmentation.
IMPRESSION: No evidence of DVT in both lower extremities.
Blood Cultures MRSA

Brief Hospital Course:
Mr. [**Known lastname 76462**] was [**Last Name (un) 4662**] to [**Hospital1 18**] from [**Hospital3 4107**] after
being rearended by a vehicle moving at approximately 30 mph.
There was no loss of consciousness. Pt complaining of low back
pain and inablity to move legs. CT of c-spine showed C7 perched
over T1 with central cord compression.
C7-T1 subluxation- Mr. [**Known lastname 76462**] was brought to the OR to undergo
a posterior decompression, C6-7, C7-T1, T1-T2 laminectomy,
facetectomy and foraminotomy with posterior cervical
arthrodesis, C5-T2. He was brought to the TSICU after the
procedure intubated. On POD #1 he was extubated without
complication and transfered to the floor. On POD#2 an IVC
filter was placed without complication. The rest of his
hospital course was unremarkable. He was then transfered to an
outside rehab facility.
Dural Tear- Mr. [**Known lastname 76462**] continued to have a presistant drainage
from his posterior cervical incision. He was brought to the OR
and was found to have a non-iatrogenic cervical dural tear.
fibrin glue and Duragen patch were applied. A lumbar drain was
placed to decrease CSF leakage. The head of bed was kept at
greater than 30 degress. His posterior incision continued to
heal.

Reason: fract
[**Hospital 93**] MEDICAL CONDITION:
80 year old man with s/p fall
REASON FOR THIS EXAMINATION:
fract
CONTRAINDICATIONS for IV CONTRAST: None.
INDICATIONS: 80-year-old man status post fall. He has new upper
extremity weakness and cord contusion is strongly suspected
clinically.
COMPARISONS: None.
TECHNIQUE: Axial non-contrast CT images of the cervical spine
were obtained, and sagittal and coronal reaffirmations were
performed.
FINDINGS: There is prevertebral soft tissue swelling as well as
soft tissue density in the nasopharynx, which could represent
vomitus or blood, but the appearance is nonspecific.
There is no definite fracture, but there are severe multilevel
degenerative changes. These include large osteophytes which are
partly fragmented along the anterior aspect of C2, particularly
C3 as well, there is a huge osteophyte along C4 extending
upwards. This may have represented an anterior flowing
osteophyte, which extends from C3 through C6. There is slight
retrolisthesis and exaggerated lordosis at the C3-C4 level.
There are posterior disc protrusions at C3-C4 and C5-C6 with
severe spinal stenosis at these levels, and the neural foramina
are also very narrow at C3- C4. The thecal contents are
difficult to evaluate with CT, but limited view shows impression
on the thecal sac at C3-C4 and C5-C6. It is difficult to assess
for contusion or hematoma.
IMPRESSION:
1. Prevertebral soft tissue swelling.
2. No definite fracture.
3. Severe spinal stenosis particularly at C3-C4.
4. Given severe degenerative changes and ankylosing osteophytes,
MRI would be helpful in excluding ligamentous injury.
The patient is being treated for presumed cord contusion
clinically.

the anterior aspect of the C3/4 disc, which is wider anteriorly.
There is minimal C3/4 retrolisthesis.
A second view, not labeled as to time, demonstrates anterior
plate and screws and intervening fusion plug at C3/4, with
minimal retrolisthesis of C3/4 and widening laterally.
A third view labelled at 12:30 shows anterior plate and screws
in place with a surgical device pointing towards the C5 spinous
process. There is severe background osteopenia.

INDICATION: Status post fall, cardiac history and shortness of
breath. Evaluate tracheostomy position.
COMPARISON: [**2128-2-1**].
SUPINE AP CHEST: In the interim since the prior study, the
endotracheal tube has been removed and a tracheostomy tube has
been placed. The tracheostomy tube tip is positioned at the
thoracic inlet. A pacemaker overlies the left chest, the leads
overlie the right atrium and right ventricle. Cardiac and
mediastinal contours are unchanged. The lungs are clear. No
pneumothorax or pleural effusion.

A positive, antibody negative, RPR nonreactive, hepatitis B
surface antigen negative and rubella immune female. The
estimated date of confinement was [**2139-5-24**]
.
1. The prenatal course was significant for cervical shortening
at 24 3/7 weeks, and not a candidate for cerclage.
2. The patient remained in the hospital for observation.
Preterm contractions were noted and patient was started on
magnesium and received betamethasone. The contractions
resolved after she was started on magnesium. She continued
on observation in the hospital until 29 3/7 weeks and then was
noted to have contractions again. Magnesium was restarted and
the contractions resolved. The patient was sent home on bed
rest.
There was a maternal history of [**Name Prefix (Prefixes) **] [**Last Name (Prefixes) 4585**]. Fetal
bilateral intrarenal dilitation of the collecting systems was
noted by ultrasound on [**2139-4-13**]. The mother
on the day of delivery presented with contractions. The GBS
status was positive but no maternal fever rupture of membranes
was 9 hours prior to delivery. The patient was started on
Clindamycin 5 1/2 hours prior to the deliver y. The
infant was delivered on [**2139-4-14**] at 2:45 A.M., spontaneous
vaginal delivery with Apgar scores of 9 and 9 at one and five

breath sounds clear and equal on auscultation. Her heart
sounds were normal, S1 and S2 with no audible murmur. She had
mild intercostal/subcostal retraction.
Her abdomen was soft, nontender, nondistended. The extremities
were well perfused and the tone was appropriate for
gestational age. Her facial features include a flat nose with
midline indentation, most probably due
to the position prior to the delivery. She had a caput and
normal female genitalia.

HOSPITAL COURSE: On [**2149-10-3**], this 33-year-old G6,
P5 underwent a dilatation and evacuation which was
complicated by a uterine perforation and injury to the
sigmoid mesentery. An intraoperative Surgery consult was
obtained. The Surgery Team recommended a partial resection
of the denuded bowel. The patient underwent a
resection and an end-to-end reanastomosis. The patient also
underwent a repair of the uterine perforation as well as a
tubal ligation. Intraoperatively, the patient received a
total of four units of packed red blood cells, two units of
FFP and 1500 cc of hetastarch. Please see the full operative
note for details.
1. Hematology: Intraoperatively, the patient's hematocrit
nadired at 14. As previously stated, the patient received a
total of four units of packed red blood cells and two units
of FFP intraoperatively. After surgery the patient was
transferred to the Surgical Intensive Care Unit where serial
hematocrits were followed. The patient's laboratories were
notable for a likely dilutional as well as consumptive
coagulopathy. On the first night after surgery, the
patient's hematocrit fell to 19.5. Her platelets were 84,000
and her INR was elevated at 1.5. On the first postoperative
day, the patient received an additional two units of packed
red blood cells, two units of FFP and four units of
cryoprecipitate. On postoperative day number two, the
patient received an additional two units of packed red blood
cells so the total products she received were eight units of
packed red blood cells, six units of FFP and four units of
cryoprecipitate. Her hematocrit stabilized at 29 and her INR
stabilized at 1.1. The patient's platelets slowly increased
to 128,000 on discharge. The patient had no further problems
with bleeding during the hospitalization.
2. Neurology: The patient was originally intubated and
sedated and was given a morphine drip for pain. This was
continued through postoperative day number one and the
propofol was weaned on postoperative day number one and she
was extubated later that day. The patient was started on a
Dilaudid PCA for pain which she used until postoperative day
number five. The patient was then changed to Percocet and
Motrin which she tolerated well. The patient was discharged
on Percocet and Motrin.
3. Pulmonary: As previously stated, the patient was
intubated until postoperative day number one. During the
first postoperative day, the patient had wheezing consistent
with an underlying asthma. The patient was given albuterol
with good response. The patient was extubated on
postoperative day number one at which time incentive
spirometry was encouraged. The patient had no further
problems from a pulmonary prospective during the
hospitalization.
4. Coronary: The patient was stable from a coronary
prospective throughout the hospitalization.
5. Gastrointestinal: The patient initially was NPO with
intravenous fluids and had an nasogastric tube placed. The
nasogastric tube was removed on postoperative day number one.
The patient was NPO until postoperative day number four. The
patient began passing flatus at this time and began to take
sips. The patient tolerated sips without a problem, was
advanced to clears, and by postoperative day number six was
tolerating solids. The patient was initially on intravenous
Protonix for gastrointestinal prophylaxis which was stopped
on postoperative day number four. On the evening of
postoperative day number four, the patient complained of
midsternal/epigastric pain. The patient was restarted on
intravenous Protonix with good relief. An electrocardiogram
was done at the time which was within normal limits.
6. Genitourinary: After the surgery, the patient received
two doses of 1000 mcg of Cytotec per rectum for uterine
atony. The patient was also started on Methergine .2 mg q. 6
hours times 48 hours. The patient's bleeding was appropriate
and she did not require any further uterotonics. The patient
had a Foley catheter until postoperative day number three.
After the catheter was removed she had no difficulties
voiding.
7. Infectious Disease: The patient was originally started
on ampicillin, gentamicin and clindamycin. She received a
total of 36 hours of these antibiotics. The patient was
afebrile during the entire hospitalization. The patient was
started on no further antibiotics.
8. Prophylaxis: The patient was on Pneumoboots beginning on
postoperative day number zero. On postoperative day number
two, the patient complained of some left thigh pain and
swelling. Although the clinical suspicion was low, the
patient underwent a bilateral lower extremity Dopplers to
rule out deep vein thrombosis and the ultrasound was
negative. The patient was also on intravenous Protonix for
gastrointestinal prophylaxis.
9. Support: The patient was seen by Social Work during her
admission and was encouraged to contact Dr. [**Name (NI) **] if
she needs any additional support after discharge.
The patient was discharged to home on postoperative day
number six. The patient was instructed to follow-up with Dr.
[**Name (NI) **] in one week and with Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 1305**] from General
Surgery in two weeks. The patient was discharged to home on
Percocet 5/325, Motrin and Colace.

Chief Complaint:
Seizures, aphasia
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
Intubation/Mechanical Ventilation
History of Present Illness:
66 yo M with a remote hx of EEE resulting in a seizure disorder
and EtOH use, transferred to medicine from neurology for
management of hypoxic respiratory distress.
Patient was initially presented to an OSH on [**2-19**] for evaluation
of sudden onset aphasia that day, which was noted to occur in
the past after seizures. On arrival to [**Hospital3 **], he was
noted to be in status epilepticus with subtherapeutic dilantin
level, so he was intubated, loaded with dilantin, given IV
valium, and transferred to [**Hospital1 18**] neurology ICU service. He was
re-started on Keppra, Dilantin, and Klonopin. No further
episodes of status while in-house, although noted to have short
episodes of seizures in lower extremities that would subside
with Ativan.
Hospital course complicated by NSTEMI with troponins to 0.9.
Cardiology was consulted and thought NSTEMI due to demand
ischemia likely related to peri-intubation hypotension
(transiently required neo gtt in ICU). Patient on heparin from
[**Date range (1) 80701**] and continued on cardioprotective medication. Also
noted to have a PNA (fevers, leukocytosis, and RLL
consolidation), started on Vancomycin and Zosyn on [**2-19**] at OSH,
which have been continued to date.
Patient self-extubated on [**2-21**], requiring BiPAP. Resiratory
status stabilized, and patient was called out to neuro floor on
[**12-14**]. Called out to a negative pressure [****] ?TB
exposure (daughter's boyfriend died of TB). Was ?receiving
fluids when noted to be having difficulty with respiration.
Received 1 dose of solumedrol for wheezing on [**2-23**]. Med/[**Female First Name (un) 1634**]
consult called for management of respiratory issues on [**2-24**],
noted to be volume overloaded/with crackles on exam after
getting maitenence fluids o/n.
When evaluated by the primary team on the floor this afternoon,
patient's breathing continued to be quite tachypneic/using
accessory muscle to breathe despite being on 5 L O2 and 2 doses
of lasix 40 mg IV, ipratroprium nebs, with -1 L diuresis in one
hour. Repeat ABG shows increased hypoxia on same oxygen settings
and worsening A-a gradient (570=>583, normal 19). Patient also
appeared slightly more confused, pulling off oxygen mask
frequently during nebulizer treatment and insisting a 'cap' was
on the floor, although nothing was noted on the floor.
Therefore, MICU resident monitoring patient on the floor
recommended immediate ICU transfer.

IMAGING:
CXRs
~ [**2173-2-19**]: Diffuse interstitial opacities are most likely due to
pulmonary
edema. Repeat radiography following appropriate diuresis is
recommended to
assess for underlying infection.
~ [**2173-2-20**]: In comparison with the earlier study of this date,
the endotracheal tube has been removed. There is opacification
at the left base silhouetting the hemidiaphragm. This most
likely represents atelectasis and pleural effusion, though the
possibility of supervening pneumonia cannot be definitely
excluded. Pulmonary vascularity is now essentially within normal
limits.
~ [**2173-2-23**]: Moderate cardiomegaly is exaggerated by lordotic
positioning, but has probably increased consistent with an
enlarging heart, and/or pericardial effusion. Azygos distention
indicates worsening elevated central venous pressure. There is
no pulmonary edema, but left lower lobe consolidation persists,
either atelectasis or pneumonia. Left subclavian line tip
projects over the junction of brachiocephalic veins. There is no
pneumothorax.
~ [**2173-2-24**]: Since earlier today, lung volumes remain low. Left
lower lobe consolidation, right basilar atelectasis, and small
bilateral pleural effusions slightly improved. Effusion in the
minor fissure is not present anymore.
ECHO:
~[**2173-2-20**]: Severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction
consistent with multivessel coronary artery disease or stress
cardiomyopathy.
~[**2173-2-25**]: Moderate regional left ventricular systolic
dysfunction. Mild pulmonary hypertension.

Brief Hospital Course:
Brief Hospital Summary: 66 yo M with seizure disorder after EEE
infection and former EtOH abuser who was transferred from an OSH
in status epilepticus. Intubated and admitted to the Neuro ICU
service. Hospital course complicated by an NSTEMI resulting in
depressed LV ejection fraction, ventilator associated pneumonia
treated with 8 day course of Vancomycin and Zosyn, and hypoxic
respiratory distress due to volume overload from depressed LV
ejection fraction. Patient was also ruled out for TB due to a
possible exposure within his family members. During this
hospital course, patient was transferred to the Neurology ICU to
the neurology floor to the medicine floor to the Medical ICU and
finally back to the medicine floor. He was discharged home with
physical therapy.
Hospital Course by Problem:
# Status Epilepticus: Patient initially presented to the Neuro
ICU intubated in status epilepticus, likely in setting of
subtherapeutic dilantin level. Mr. [**Known lastname 80702**] daughter reports that
he typically has seizures every 4-6 months and that these occur
in the context of low or high levels of dilantin. His level at
the OSH was subtherapeutic. Unlikely meningitis given lack of
nuchal rigidity. Unlikely alcohol withdrawal as patient reported
he had not had EtOH use recently and his toxicology screen was
negative for EtOH. His head CT from the OSH shows stable L
frontal encephalomalacia. The patient while in the MICU became
acutely agitated, attempted to leave the unit without any
clothes, and a code purple was called. He received on dose of
IV haldol 2mg and improved. His mental status exam eventually
improved, and his seizure medications were changed to keppra
1500 mg PO BID, dilantin 300 mg PO QHS (with therapeutic
dilantin levels), and klonopin 1.5 mg PO QHS on discharge. Given
prn Ativan for seizures > 3min. No further seizure activity on
discharge.
# Hypoxia: Patient became acute hypoxic on the floor after being
called out from the ICU, presumably in the setting of continous
IVFs and decreased LV ejection fraction of 30%. Aspiration
pneumonia may also have contributed to hypoxia. He was
transferred to the MICU after remaining on the floor for 6 hours
due to concern for hypoxic respiratory distress and aggressively
diuresed with IV lasix and treated with standing nebulizers. He
improved gradually and was transferred back to the floor.
Transitioned to oral lasix. Continued beta-blocker and
ACE-inhibitor. Continued albuterol and ipratroprum nebs as
needed. Room air sats were 94% on RA at rest and xx% on
ambulation. CXR showed stable L lobar opacities. He was
discharged with home physical therapy.
# Ventilator associated pneumonia: Patient noted to have
leukocytosis and left lower lobe infiltrate on CXR, likely VAP
versus aspiration PNA during seizures 9Could not distinguish
between the two). Unable to obtain speciation on sputum culture,
so treated with 8 day course of Vancomycin and Zosyn. Kept on
aspiration precautions and diet per speech and swallow
recommendations.
# TB exposure: Recent exposure to family member who died of TB
of [**2173-2-2**]. AFB sputum negative x3. Kept in negative pressure
room until completely ruled out.
# NSTEMI: Patient suffered an NSTEMI likely due to demand
ischemia (hypotensive and tachycardic in the neuro ICU after
intubation requiring transient neosynephrine gtt) versus
Takatsubo/stress cardiomyopathy. Therefore, decision was made
not to do cardiac catherization. Cardiac enzymes were cycled and
were downtrending on discharge. Continued cardioprotective meds
(ASA, statin, Beta-blocker, started low dose ACE-inhibitor).
Patient will need a stress test as outpatient
# Pump: Patient had pulmonary edema with poor EF% (20-25%) which
improved to 30% on repeat TTE, likely due to recent myocardial
insult. Patient was diuresed and treated with beta blocker and
afterload reduced with ACE-inhibitor. He will need a repeat TTE
in [**6-2**] weeks as outpatient.
# Rhythm: No arrythmias noted on telemetry. Continued telemetry
# EtOH use: No signs of withdrawal. Continue MVI, thiamine,
folate

History of Present Illness:
Ms. [**Known lastname 27772**] is an 81 yo female with PMH of trached since
[**Month (only) **] stomach mass, trouble weaning. Much of the history is
provided by her husband, who is her HCP, given her ventilatory
status. She was initially intubated for resection of a gastric
cardiac tumor, but had difficulty weaning from the vent with
complications including pna. She spent 72 days at [**Hospital 10287**] for this. She was discharged to [**Hospital 100**] Rehab on [**1-6**],
where she was slowly weaned. She underwent bronchoscopy and
endoscopy at [**Hospital3 **] roughly one week ago which showed
healed resection sites. She was at [**Hospital 100**] Rehab today when she
noticed sudden onset dyspnea and tachycardia.

Studies:
CXR AP [**2133-2-11**]:
Mild CHF with small bilateral pleural effusions and retrocardiac
opacity which may represent atelectasis and/or pneumonia. Would
recommend
followup post-diuresis.
.
CTA chest [**2133-2-11**]:
Pulmonary artery filling defects, consistent with acute
thrombus,
begin at the origin of the right upper lobe pulmonary artery
extending into segmental and subsegmental right upper lobe
branches. Focal acute pulmonary embolism is noted in the right
interlobar pulmonary aretery as well. Other pulmonary artery
filling defects appear peripherally located within the vessel,
perhaps representing recannulated arteries in the setting of
chronic embolism (i.e. branches to the superior segment of the
left lower lobe). . Breathing artifact obscures evaluation of
subsegmental levels, particularly to the right lower lobe. No
left sided pulmonary emboli are identified. There is no overt
evidence of right- sided heart strain. Atherosclerotic
calcifications involve the thoracic aorta and its branches
including the coronary arteries. There is no evidence of
pericardial effusion. Small scattered mediastinal lymph nodes
are identified though they do not appear to meet CT criteria for
pathologic enlargement. An tracheostomy tube appears
appropriately
positioned. Heterogeneous appearance of the thyroid with rim-
calcified left thyroid nodules are partially imaged.
Lung windows reveal extensive right lung peribronchovascular
opacity
throughout the upper, middle, and lower lobes. More
consolidative changes at the right base are also noted. There is
a small left pleural effusion with consolidation of the left
lower lobe consistent with collapse. Secretions are noted in the
left main stem bronchus extending into left lower lobe bronchi.
Although this exam is not tailored to evaluate abdominal organs,
limited
evaluation of the upper abdomen is unremarkable.
There are no bone findings of malignancy. Fracture deformity of
the left
seventh rib is old. Multilevel thoracolumbar bridging anterior
osteophytosis is noted.
IMPRESSION:
1. Pulmonary emboli including those beginning at the origin of
the right
upper lobe pulmonary artery extending into segmental and
subsegmental vessels and another in the right interlobar artery.
2. Focal right basilar consolidation and diffuse right lung
peribronchovascular opacity is most concerning for infection or
aspiration, though the sequela of chronic emboli is in the
differential.
3. Left lower lobe collapse with opacification of lower lobe
bronchi, perhaps reflecting mucus impaction. Associated small
left pleural effusion.
.
TTE [**2133-2-12**]:
The left atrium is normal in size. There is mild symmetric left
ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size and global
systolic function (LVEF>55%). Due to suboptimal technical
quality, a focal wall motion abnormality cannot be fully
excluded. The right ventricular cavity is mildly dilated with
mild global free wall hypokinesis. The aortic root is mildly
dilated at the sinus level. There is no aortic valve stenosis.
No aortic regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are
mildly thickened. 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 fat
pad.
IMPRESSION: Mild right ventricular systolic dysfunction.
Preserved global left ventricular systolic function. No
significant valvular disease seen. No pericardial effusion.
.
Bilateral LENI: No evidence of deep vein thrombosis in either
leg.
.
CXR AP [**2133-2-13**]:
In comparison with the study of [**2-11**], there are persistent low
lung
volumes in this patient with a tracheostomy tube in place.
Opacification at the left base is consistent with pleural fluid
and atelectasis, though
superimposed pneumonia cannot be excluded in the absence of a
lateral view. The pulmonary vasculature is essentially within
normal limits. The cardiac silhouette is somewhat prominent,
though much of this may reflect the poor inspiration.
Opacification at the right base medially could reflect crowding
of vessels or a possible consolidation in this area as well.
.
Brief Hospital Course:
81 year old lady was admitted with acute respiratory distress.
Patient was found to have pulmonary emboli as mentioned above.
She also had pneumonia. She was found to be in atrial
fibrillation with rapid ventricular response on admission.
.
# Pulmonary emboli: She was started on heparin drip on
admission. This was switched to lovenox bridge to coumadin on
[**2133-2-13**]. Her respiratory status continued to improve and she
was being weaned off the ventilator as tolerated. Her TTE
showed RV free wall hypokinesis. Patient needs to be in
therapeutic INR prior to discontinuing her lovenox shots. She
had negative lower extremities for DVT.
.
# Pneumonia: Patient has trach. She was found to have
pnuemonia on both CXR and CT. Final sputum culture is still
pending but she was growing 4+ gram positive cocci. Patient
will be treated with Vancomycin, levofloxacin and zosyn for a 8
day course to be completed on [**2133-2-19**]. Her sputum culture and
sensitivities needs to be followed up. Patient initially had
elevated lactate to 2.9 on admission which quickly trended down.
.
# Afib/aflutter: Patient was found to be in intermittent
afib/aflutter, mostly in sinus with good rate control in ICU.
She received IV diltiazem in ED. She was continued on home
digoxin in ICU. Anticoagulation course as above.
.
# Abdominal pain: Found to have diffuse tenderness on admission
which quickly resolved. Her LFTs and pancreatic labs were
within normal limits.
.
# Urinary tract infection: Positive UA in ED. Cultures are
pending at the time of discharge. She is already pancovered for
pneumonia as above.
.
# HTN: Patient has a history of HTN on multiple
antihypertensives at home. SBP ranging 100s to 140s in ICU.
Her home medications were held due to active infection. Could
gradually restart as she improves.
.
# DM: Her metformin was held in house and she was placed on
sliding scale insulin. Could restart her metformin as out
patient.

History of Present Illness:
67 year old man 1 month s/p AVR, MVR, and CABG x 3, now with
fever to 100.7, WBC 18.7, and erythema at superior aspect of
wound. Pt recently had a long hospitalization following CABG and
MVR/AVR([**Date range (3) 83151**]), which was complicated by post-op
CVA, aflutter/afib with unsuccessful cardioversion, and a
HA-pna. The pt was discharged with a trach to [**Hospital3 **],
due to his inability to manage secretions. The pt did well at
rehab, until [**2125-10-4**], when he developed a low-grade fever and
CXR showed a new left lung base consolidation. He continued to
have temps to 99, and on [**10-14**] pt was started on ceftriaxone 1g
q24h. On [**10-15**] the pt was also started on vancomycin 1g q12h. Per
rehab reports the pt developed confusion and RR in the high
30's. The pt was thought to be in volume overload, and was given
lasix 20mg IV once on [**10-17**]. Gram stain of sputum from [**10-14**] showed
1= GPCSputum culture from [**10-14**] grew 2+ E. coli that was
pansensitive. Cdiff from that date was also negative. Blood
cultures from [**10-15**] showed no growth on [**10-16**].
In the ED, the pt's triage VS were: T100.7, P71 BP 185/73, RR
20, 99%. Pt had a non-con CT Chest that showed: soft tissue
stranding anterior to sternum, soft tissue stranding and fluid
posteriorly (4cm x 07.cm) adjacent to pericardium which may be
thickened. Tmax in ED 100.9, pt received tylenol. Pt was seen by
CT [**Doctor First Name **] which thought that CT findings were post-op changes, and
recommended continuing vanc/ctx for presumed pna versus
cellulitis. Pt admitted to MICU for further eval.

CT Chest:
IMPRESSION:
1. Post-surgical stranding in the anterior mediastinal space. No
fluid
collection.
2. Tracheostomy tube is 7.6 cm from the carina.
4. Right PICC loops superiorly, malpositioned; consider
readjustment.
5. Mitral and aortic valve replacement.
6. Left moderate-sized pleural effusion and bibasal atelectasis.
7. Gynecomastia.
CXR [**2125-10-24**]
Portable AP chest radiograph was reviewed in comparison to
[**2125-10-22**].
The tracheostomy tip is 6.5 cm above the carina. The
cardiomediastinal
silhouette is stable. The replaced mitral valve is in place.
There is
bilateral pleural effusion and right lower lobe opacity that
might represent a combination of atelectasis and infectious
process. The left retrocardiac atelectasis has also progressed
and might represent an additional source of infection as well.
Brief Hospital Course:
67 year old man 1 month s/p AVR, MVR, and CABG x 3, now with
fever to 100.9, WBC 18.7 admitted with possible pneumonia and
cellulitis, rule out mediastinitis.
# Fever/Pseudomonal pneumonia: Pt had CT chest that indicated
some stranding around sternum, but thoracic surgery did not
think CT was consistent with mediastinitis, but that changes
were characteristic of post-op changes. No evidence of
cellulitis on exam, and although PICC line appeared normal, it
was removed for concern for line infection. Pt found to have new
ventilator-associated pneumonia, and had bronchoscopy that
showed copious secretions. Sputum grew multi-drug resistant
pseudomonas. During the admission the pt was thought to have had
a ceftriaxone allergic reaction (morbilloform drug rash) and
ceftriaxone was added to allergy list. Pt was discharged to
rehab on tobramycin with plan to complete a 14 day course, that
will be complete on [**2125-11-4**]. He will need his tobra level
checked every 3 days to see if his dose needs adjustment. Renal
function should be checked q3 days while on the tobra to ensure
proper dosing.
# Cardiovascular: EKG improved from prior. No chest pain.
Continued amiodarone, coumadin, statin, aspirin and restarted
beta blocker at a lower dose.
# H/o CVA: Left hemiparesis improved as L LE now has some
strength. He was continued on his statin, aspirin, and coumadin.
# FEN/GI: Continue home Jevity.
# GERD: was continued on home ranitidine
# Access: new PICC line was placed during his admission, old
PICC was removed and had a negative culture.

History of Present Illness:
80 yo female with pmh of DM and htn who was admitted with CP on
[**12-25**]. The day prior to admisssion she had substernal CP,
diaphroesis which occured for a few minutes. The next morning
she had a repeat episode also with HA (which she has when her BP
increases with anxiety. In the ED her BP was 232/95 upon
presentation. She stated she had taken her BP meds. She was
given lopressor. Head CT was negative. Her HA improved. Her EKG
showed NSR in the 90s with no ST segment changes, however her
Trop was 1.8. She was started on a nitro gtt, heparin gtt, and
given ASA.
.
She was taken to cath today where she complained of chest pain.
She became acutely anxious and agitated. Her SBP increased to
the 240's with her LVEDP in the 30's even when given TNG 200
mcg/min IVD, furosemide 20 mg IV, 6 mg total of morphine,
midazolam IV, labetalol IV bolus, nitroprusside IV infusion, and
amlodipine 10 mg po. As the procdure continued she began
complaining of SOB and worsening chest pain so the procedure was
stopped. Her renal arteries where not visualized
angiographically. Her SBP eventually fell to the 150s.
.
Here she is confused and only occasionally will answer
questions. She does admit to continued chest pain, but denies
shortness of breath.

[**12-26**] C Cath
COMMENTS:
1. Selective coronary angiography of this right dominant system
revealed
2 vessel obstructive coronary artery disease. There were dual
ostia
giving rise to the LD and LCX. The LAD had a tubular 65%
stenosis in the
proximal portion just before D1. The distal LAD wrapped around
the apex.
The LCX had a 95% subtotal occlusion in the AV groove segment
immediately after OM1, which was a tortuous vessel. The [**Month/Day (2) 11641**]
had a hazy
proximal 70% stenosis followed by a mid 75% stenosis. The RCA
tapered in
the proximal to mid portion suggestive of moederated disease
with
diffuse plaquing througout. There was a large very tortuous AM
and RPL.
2. Limited resting hemodyanmics demonstrated severe systemic
systolic
arterial hypertension with a SBP >200mm Hg. There was evidence
of
diastolic heart failure with an elevated LVEDP of 23. There was
no
transaortic valvular gradient on careful pullback of the
catheter from
the left ventricle to the aorta.
3. The patient became progressively uncomfortable, dysnpneic and
agitated during the procedure, which was terminatned. Renal
angiography
was planned but not attempted.
FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
1. Multivessel coronary artery disease involving LAD, [**Month/Day (2) 11641**], AV
groove
CX, with diffuse disease in the RCA.
2. Mild to moderate LV diastolic heart failure.
3. Severe systemic arterial hypertension.
[**12-27**] C Cath
COMMENTS:
1. Selective coronary angiography showed 2-vessel coronary
artery
disease. The LAD had a proximal tubular 70% stenosis. The LCx
had a
high OM1 with proximal and mid 60-70% stenoses. There was a 90%
stenosis in the distal AV groove LCx that was of small caliber.
The RCA
was not injected.
2. Limited resting hemodynamics revealed moderate systemic
arterial
systolic hypertension with a central aortic pressure of 175/75
mmHg.
3. Successful direct stenting was performed in the proximal LAD
using a
3.0x23mm Vision bare-metal stent. This was post-dilated using a
3.0mm
NC [**Male First Name (un) **] balloon. Interim angiography showed normal flow, no
apparent
dissection, and no residual stenosis.
4. Successful PTCA was performed in the distal LCx using a
2.0x15mm
Voyager balloon. Final angiography showed normal flow, no
apparent
dissection, and a 40% residual stenosis.
5. The right femoral arteriotomy was successfully closed using a
Mynx
device.
FINAL DIAGNOSIS:
1. Two vessel coronary artery disease.
2. Moderate systemic arterial systolic hypertension.
3. Placement of a bare-metal stent in the proximal LAD.
4. PTCA of the distal LCx.
[**12-27**] Echo
There is moderate symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. The
left ventricular cavity size is normal. Regional left
ventricular wall motion is normal. Overall left ventricular
systolic function is normal (LVEF>55%). Diastolic function could
not be assessed. Right ventricular chamber size and free wall
motion are normal. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly
thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. No aortic
regurgitation is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly
thickened. There is no mitral valve prolapse. Moderate (2+)
mitral regurgitation is seen. The estimated pulmonary artery
systolic pressure is normal. There is no pericardial effusion.
Compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of [**2139-12-4**],
the degree of mitral regurgitation has increased. Diastolic
function cannot be determined on the current study. The other
findings are similar.
Brief Hospital Course:
80 yo female with pmh of htn and DM admitted with an [**Hospital 7792**]
transferred to the CCU after an attempted cath due to a
hypertensive emergency secondary to anxiety and agitation.
She was taken to cath on [**12-25**] where she complained of chest
pain. She became acutely anxious and agitated. Her SBP
increased to the 240's with her LVEDP in the 30's even when
given TNG 200 mcg/min IVD, furosemide 20 mg IV, 6 mg total of
morphine, midazolam IV, labetalol IV bolus, nitroprusside IV
infusion, and amlodipine 10 mg po. As the procdure continued she
began complaining of SOB and worsening chest pain so the
procedure was stopped. Her SBP eventually fell to the 150s when
she was transferred to the CCU on a nitrogylcerin and
nitroprusside drip.
The two drips were weaned off overnight. Her CP resolved as her
anxiety and agitation decreased. The heparin gtt was held given
her recently elevated SBP due to the risk of hemorrahage. She
had elevated BS in the 430's which remained elevated after 6
units of humalog x2, so she was started on an insulin gtt until
the morning when she was weaned off and given 4 units of lantus
and covered with SSI. She was delirious overnight and was given
5 mg of zyprexa x2 and 2.5 mg iv haldol x1 for agitation and
required restraints to avoid her from climbing out of bed and
pulling out her IVs.
The cath from [**12-25**] showed multivessel CAD involving the LAD,
[**Last Name (LF) 11641**], [**First Name3 (LF) **] grrovve Cx, and diffuse disease of the RCA. The
option of CAGB was discussed, however given her age and how
poorly she tolerated the cath, it was decided to take her back
to cath again and place a stent in the major lesion. She was
taken to cath on [**12-26**] where she had a bm stent placed to the LAD
and POBA to the distal LCx. Her SBP rose to the 200's during
the procedure again and she was started on a nitro gtt which was

Brief Hospital Course:
Ms. [**Known lastname 13469**] was admitted to the [**Hospital1 18**] Spine Surgery Service on
[**2131-3-5**] and taken to the Operating Room for L3-S1 interbody
fusion through an anterior approach. Please refer to the
dictated operative note for further details. The surgery was
without complication and the patient was transferred to the PACU
in a stable condition. TEDs/pnemoboots were used for
postoperative DVT prophylaxis. Intravenous antibiotics were
given per standard protocol. Initial postop pain was controlled
with a PCA. On HD#2 she returned to the operating room for a
scheduled T11-L3 anterior fusion through a thoractomy. Please
refer to the dictated operative note for further details. The
second surgery was also without complication and the patient was
transferred to the PACU in a stable condition. Postoperative HCT
was stable. HD#3 she returned for a scheduled T4-S1 posterior
fusion. Postoperative hematocrit was low and she was transfused
multiple units of packed cells and platelets. She was
transfered to the T/SICU from close monitoring. Her chest tube
was removed POD2 from the third procedure. A bupivicaine
epidural pain catheter placed at the time of the posterior
surgery remained in place until postop day one from the third
procedure. She was kept NPO until bowel function returned then
diet was advanced as tolerated.
She developed a persistently elevated white count and a medical
consult was obtained. A thorough workup was conducted but
returned negative for a source. She remained afebrile and on
HD#9 her leukocytosis decreased.
The patient was transitioned to oral pain medication when
tolerating PO diet. Foley was removed on POD#3 from the third
procedure. She was fitted with a lumbar warm-n-form brace for
comfort. Physical therapy was consulted for mobilization OOB to
ambulate. Hospital course was otherwise unremarkable. On the day
of discharge the patient was afebrile with stable vital signs,
comfortable on oral pain control and tolerating a regular diet.

History of Present Illness:
This is a 54 yo M with no significant past medical history who
presented to an OSH with 3 days of progressive dyspnea on
exertion. The patient noticed intermittent R calf swelling for
2-3 months prior to presentation. The patient thought that this
was due to trauma from exercise and did not undergo further
workup. Over the past three days, the patient noted increasing
dyspnea on exertion. One day prior to admission, he noted that
he was breathing harder at rest and he presented to OSH for
further workup. At the OSH, the patient had a LE US that showed
a RLE clot and a CTA that showed a sub-massive PE (unable to
view reports yet). He was started on a heparin gtt and
transfered to the [**Hospital1 18**] ED for further workup. For the last 2
weeks, the patient has noted chills, subjective fevers,
myalgias, drneching night sweats, and fatigue. He has taken
intermittent ibuprofen without much relief. He denies cough,
rashes, sore throat, rhinorrhea, abd pain, N/V, diarrhea. The
patient denies sick contacts.

Studies
CXR [**2103-12-12**]
Assessment of the lungs is more thoroughly performed on the
outside
hospital CT, though there is no focal consolidation, effusion,
or pneumothorax seen. Cardiomediastinal silhouette appears
normal. Bony structures are intact. No free air below the right
hemidiaphragm.
IMPRESSION: No pneumonia.
TTE [**2103-12-13**]
Overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (LVEF>55%).
The right ventricular cavity is moderately dilated with
borderline normal free wall function. There is abnormal septal
motion/position consistent with right ventricular
pressure/volume overload. No aortic regurgitation is seen. No
mitral regurgitation is seen. The pulmonary artery systolic
pressure could not be determined. There is an anterior space
which most likely represents a prominent fat pad. IMPRESSION:
Moderately dilated right ventricle with borderline normal
function and evidence of pressure/volume overload. Unable to
determine pulmonary artery pressure on this exam. Normal left
ventricular size and function.
Brief Hospital Course:
54 yo M with no prior medical history who presents with RLE
swelling and SOB, found to have deep venous thrombosis and
submassive pulmonary embolism. Patient was placed on heparin
drip and transitioned to coumadin.
.
# Pulmonary Embolism/DVT: Patient presented with several months
of shortness of breath and worsening dyspnea on exertion. He
also noted a 6 month history of swelling and pain in his right
leg. He reported several 14 hour car trips to the midwest in
the months leading up to his leg swelling. He was sent to an
OSH by his PCP where [**Name Initial (PRE) **] saddle pulmonary embolism was seen on
CTA. The patient was transferred to [**Hospital1 18**] and placed on a
heparin drip. He was unable to bridge to coumadin with lovenox
given his weight (>150 kg) outside of guidelines. He had a slow
to respond INR and was discharged on 10 mg coumadin daily with
INR of 2.3 at discharge after being therapeutic for >48 hours.
He was discharged to follow up with his PCP regarding future INR
checks and coumadin dosing over then 6 months.
.
Transitional issues
# Should have age appropriate cancer screening (colonoscopy) if
not already planned
# Would recommend sleep study to assess for OSA
# Would recommend fasting lipids if not reccently checked
# Will need frequent INR checks until stable INR is achieved.

It was a pleasure taking care of you while you were in the
hospital. You were admitted for evaluation of your leg swelling
and shortness of breath. You were found to have both a large
blood clot in your right leg as well as a large blood clot in
your lungs. You were started on blood thinners and transitioned
to an oral medicine called coumadin. On this drug you will
bleed much more easily and will need be careful when shaving and
using sharp objects. Your primary care doctor will help manage
your blood levels. You will need to have regular blood checks
done at [**Hospital3 4107**] and these results will be faxed to his
office.

Date of Birth: [**2045-9-23**] Sex: F
Service: CCU
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: The patient is a 63 year-old
female with a history of rheumatic heart disease with mitral
stenosis with a valve area of 0.75 to 0.9 cm squared and
resulting pulmonary hypertension with PA pressures of 90 to
100 mmHg who was admitted to [**Hospital1 188**] for mitral valvuloplasty. Per the patient's daughter
the patient has been short of breath and ultimately
bedridden. For the past few months the patient has had
severe dyspnea with even short trips out of her bed.
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY:
1. Rheumatic heart disease and mitral stenosis.
2. Pulmonary hypertension.
3. Questionable asthma/chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease.
4. Hypothyroidism.
5. Gastroesophageal reflux disease.
6. Depression/anxiety.
PAST SURGICAL HISTORY: Status post cholecystectomy, status
post knee surgery.
MEDICATIONS:
1. Effexor.
2. Remeron.
3. Klonopin.
4. Levoxyl.
5. Nexium.
6. Vioxx.
7. Morphine.
8. Hydrochlorothiazide questionable dose.
ALLERGIES: No known drug allergies.
FAMILY HISTORY: No history of heart disease.
HOSPITAL COURSE: 1. Cardiac: The patient has undergone a
left heart catheterization, which showed clean coronaries.
The patient had a TEE, which showed mean mitral valve
gradient of 12 mmHg with moderate mitral stenosis, mild
mitral leaflet thickening, good MC mobility, normal left
ventricular function and severe pulmonary hypertension of
more then 100 mmHg. The patient was taken to valvuloplasty,
which improved mitral valve area of 2.6 cm squared by
catheterization and 2.0 cm squared by TEE. The procedure was
complicated by development of new pericardial
effusion with increasing RA pressures to 22 mmHg.
Pericardiocentesis yielded 350 cc of blood with improved RA
pressures to 8. Hemopericardium was felt to be secondary to
left atrial perforation, therefore the patient was
transferred to the cardiac care unit for observation. The
patient has done very well in the cardiac care unit. The
patient's pericardial drain was discontinued the day
following its placement. The patient's repeat echocardiogram
has shown mild left atrial dilation, no effusion and normal
left ventricular systolic function. The patient has had a
repeated echocardiogram on [**2109-7-10**], which was unremarkable and
unchanged. The patient was subsequently transferred to the
regular medicine floor. The patient's home medications were
restarted including Zebeta 5 mg, which was increased to 5 mg
subsequently, Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg as well as all of
the patient's outpatient medications. The patient has done
extremely well and was seen by physical therapy, but was
shown to have decreased endurance, balance and gait due to
prolonged bed rest prior to the hospitalization. As far as
the status post mitral valvuloplasty the thought is the patient's
pulmonary hypertension that she had on admission is likely to
improve. The patient has had good systolic function. On
telemetry the patient has had a few episodes of ventricular
ectopy, which is thought to be due to pericardial irritation. The
patient is to continue Zebeta at her current dose.
2. Pulmonary is stable.
3. Renal is stable. Stable creatinine, normal electrolytes,
which were followed throughout the admission.
4. Infectious disease: One of the patient's blood cultures
were positive for gram positive cocci in clusters. All
subsequent blood cultures were negative for 42 hours. It was
initially concerning since the patient has been persistently
tachycardic with a rate in the 130s, but this was felt to be
rebound tachycardia fro being off of beta blockers the
patient has been use to taking at home and resolved once the
patient's Zebeta was started at the outpatient dose. The
patient has remained afebrile throughout the hospital stay
and we opted not to administer antibiotic treatment.
5. Endocrine: Hypothyroidism, Levothyroxine was started at
25 mg po q day. The patient is to be followed by TSH and
free T4 in four to six weeks by her primary care physician.
[**Name10 (NameIs) **] patient has had borderline elevated fasting blood sugars
during the hospitalization. The patient is to have
hemoglobin A1C checked by her primary care physician.
CONDITION ON DISCHARGE: Good.
DISCHARGE STATUS: Home with VNA for nursing and physical
therapy.
DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS:
1. Zebeta 10 mg po q.d.
2. Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg po q.d.

Chief Complaint:
respiratory distress, slurred speech
Major Surgical or Invasive Procedure:
none
History of Present Illness:
Mr. [**Known lastname 19017**] is a 69-year-old male with past medical history
significant for severe COPD on home oxygen at 4L, HTN, GERD, CAD
(prior NSTEMI), hyperlipidemia, h/o resistant pseudomonas PNA
and chronic back pain who was brought to ED via EMS after wife
noticed he had worse confusion and altered mentation this
evening. Patient denies recent cough, fevers, chills or
increased/discolored sputum production. Of note, he had recent
ED visit on [**4-5**] for worse weakness and depression and was seen
by psychiatry and SW and discharged home. Much of history
collected from wife given patient's AMS.
In ED a fentanyl patch was noticed on his back and he was having
some slurred speech so there was concern for narcotic induced
hypercarbia after initial ABG showed pH 7.28, pCO2 116, pO2 56,
HCO3 57. He is also taking Ativan and Percocet at home regularly
for anxiety and low back pain. He complained of some generalized
weakness along with 1 week of more focal right hand weakness.
Therefore, neurology was called to evaluate him in ED and his
exam was non-focal. A CT head was done which was unremarkable.
Neuro recommended CTA head and neck. There was also concern for
COPD flare up from possible infection as well but CXR was
unremarkable for PNA.
Initial vitals in ED were: T98.2F, HR 93, BP 137/77, RR 28 and
O2 Saturation 99% on 6L. He was given albuterol nebs,
ipratropium nebs, 125mg IV Solumedrol, 1g IV Ceftriaxone, 500mg
IV Azithromycin and Naloxone .4mg x1 for presumed narcotic
induced respiratory distress. He became quite agitated after
Naloxone so he was given 2.5mg IV Haldol. Lactate was normal at
0.8 and he also had hyperkalemia to 5.4 range. WBC count was
normal at 8.6 and Hct near baseline at 37.2. FSG was 184. Repeat
ABG much improved s/p BIPAP with pH 7.36, pCO2
85, pO2 65, HCO3 50.
On evaluation in the MICU, he appeared confused, somewhat
agitated and was not cooperative with initial questions but then
calmed down within minutes and was able to give a limited
history. Speech somewhat garbled at baseline and patient was
only oriented to place and year but did not know month or why
exactly he was in ICU.
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: As per HPI. Limited ROS otherwise due to
patient's AMS. Patient also endorses decreased appetite and wife
also corroborates poor PO intake x 1 week.

=================================
IMAGING:
CXR ([**2108-4-17**]) - FINDINGS: As compared to the previous
radiograph, there is no evidence of newly appeared focal
parenchymal opacity suggesting pneumonia. Unchanged
hyperinflation of both lungs, the right lung base is better
ventilated than on the previous examination. No pleural
effusions. Normal size of the cardiac silhouette. Moderate
tortuosity of the thoracic aorta.
CXR ([**2108-4-15**]) - IMPRESSION: COPD. No definite signs of
pneumonia. If needed, correlation with a lateral view may aid.
CT Head ([**2108-4-15**]) - IMPRESSION: No acute intracranial process.
Brief Hospital Course:
69-year-old male with severe COPD on home 4L NC, HTN,
hyperlipidemia, CAD, GERD, depression and chronic back pain on
multiple sedating pain medications and psychiatric medications
who presented with AMS, hypercarbic respiratory distress.
# Severe COPD & Hypercarbic Respiratory Distress: Initial
desaturations and hypercarbia was felt to be related to
narcotic- and benzodiazepine-induced respiratory depression. He
is also a CO2-retainer at baseline. Patient had been taking
fentanyl patches, percocet, and ativan at home. The patient had
cultures with no growth, was afebrile, and had a clear CXR,
making infection less likely. Moreover, he had no sputum changes
or worse cough from usual baseline. He was initially treated as
a COPD exacerbation with albuterol/ipratropium nebs, solumedrol,
ceftriaxone, azithromycin. Ceftriaxone was ultimately stopped,
and steroids were switched to oral prednisone. He was continued
on a 5-day course of azithromycin. While he was in the MICU,
meetings were held with the patient, his family, and the
palliative care team. Given his advanced end stage COPD status
and his wished to focus on his comfort, the patient was made CMO
(comfort measures only). He was given the option of BiPAP to
help with his breathing but did not like the way the BiPAP mask
felt. Given his CMO status, his medication regimen was adjusted
(see below). He was discharged to a [**Hospital1 1501**], with plans for eventual
transition to hospice.
# Altered Mental Status: As above, felt to be secondary to
hypercarbia and narcotics. CT head negative for any acute
process. Mental status improved over the [**Hospital 228**] hospital
course. Pt was started on haloperidol and clonopin to help with
anxiety and agitation. Pt's ativan was also increased from
nightly PRN to q6hours PRN.
# Coronary Artery Disease: Past medical history significant for
prior NSTEMI in [**2101**]. On admission, he had no complaints of
current chest pain or palpitations. After decision was made for
comfort care, many of his cardiac medications were stopped,
including lisinopril, pravastatin, and aspirin.
# Chronic Back Pain: Given concern for decreased respirations
and somnolence with hypercarbia, sedating narcotics were held on
admission. He was started on [**Year (4 digits) 1988**] tylenol as well as
lidoderm patches for pain control. At the time of discharge, the
patient was not complaining of any pain.
# Goals of Care: While the patient was in the ICU, meeting was
held between the patient, his family, the ICU team, and the
palliative care team. The decision was made to transition to
comfort care. Many non-essential medications were stopped at
that time (see medications section below). At discharge, he was
started on morphine elixir for shortness of [**Year (4 digits) 1440**]. He was also
started on haldol and klonopin for anxiety, as described above.
He was discharged to a [**Hospital1 1501**], with plans for eventual transition
to hospice.

Admission Date: [**2118-10-29**] Discharge Date: [**2118-12-23**]
Date of Birth: [**2118-10-29**] Sex: M
Service: Neonatology
HISTORY: This is a 27-1/7 week infant who is now being
transferred to [**Hospital3 1810**], 7 North for further care
due to diagnosis of a colonic stricture following medical
necrotizing enterocolitis.
The infant was born to a 34 year-old gravida II, para I, now
II mother with prenatal screens A positive, antibody
negative, RPR nonreactive, rubella immune, hepatitis B
surface antigen negative, and group B strep unknown.
Benign antepartum course until mother presented with vaginal
bleeding and was admitted to the [**Hospital1 188**]. She was started on magnesium sulfate and given a complete
course of betamethasone. Magnesium sulfate was discontinued and
mother had further bleeding and concern for abruption. Due to
this concern for abruption and mother's decreasing platelet count
the infant was delivered by cesarean section on [**2118-10-29**]
at 6:57 p.m., 20 minutes post onset of general anesthesia.
Ruptured membranes at delivery for clear fluid, no maternal
fever, no intrapartum antibiotics. The infant initially had
decreased spontaneous respiratory effort likely
secondary to general anesthesia. Heart rate about 60,
received bag mask ventilation with improved heart rate to
over 100 . Apgars of 2 at one minute, 6 at five and 7 at nine.
[**Hospital **] transferred to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit without
incident.
ADMISSION PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: Weight of 1110, which is
65th percentile. Length of 38 cm, which is 60th percentile.
Head circumference of 26.5 cm, which is 65th percent.
Anterior fontanelle open, flat. Palate deferred. Regular rate
and rhythm without murmur. 2+ peripheral pulses including
femorals. Breath sounds fairly clear with symmetric air
entry. Abdomen benign without hepatosplenomegaly or masses. A
3 vessel cord was noted, normal male genitalia for
gestational age with right testicle palpable high in the
scrotum. Normal back and extremities. Skin pink and well
perfused. Decreased spontaneous movement.
HOSPITAL COURSE BY SYSTEM:
1. Respiratory: [**Known lastname **] was initially intubated and required
surfactant x2. He was extubated to CPAP on day of life #8
which was [**11-6**], after being loaded with caffeine
citrate. He was then placed on CPAP of 6 with FIO2 30
to 40% and this continued until he developed
medical necrotizing enterocolitis. Then [**Known lastname **] was taken
off of CPAP and placed on nasal cannula on [**12-5**] and
he has continued in nasal cannula up until this date. He
had received maximum flow of 1 liter of room air
humidified and now has weaned to today's nasal cannula
setting of 100 cc on room air. He is currently breathing w/
respiratory rate of 30 to 60s and he continues on his
caffeine citrate with 1 to 2 spells a day.
2. Cardiovascular: There was a murmur noted on day of life
#2 and an initial echocardiogram showed a PDA. He received
one course of indomethacin. A repeat echo on [**11-3**]
showed a small PDA that was about 1 mm and a follow up on
[**12-6**] at the time of his necrotizing enterolitis showed
no ductus arteriosus.
3. Fluid, electrolytes and nutrition: Infant's birth weight
was 1110. His most recent weight today is 2520 grams and
his most recent head circumference on [**12-12**] was 30 cm
and a length of 44 cm. Initially
[**Known lastname **] had been n.p.o. with an umbilical arterial and an
umbilical venous line in place. He was slowly started
feedings on day of life #7 and slowly advanced to full
feedings on day of life #10 and he was then advanced to
breast milk 30 with beneprotein, was doing well without any
intolerance until day of life #37 on [**12-5**] when he
was noted to have grossly bloody stool. Please see GI
system for rest of GI issues but he was made n.p.o. at
that time and due to diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis
remained n.p.o. until [**12-20**] and he was started
slowly on feeds. He had been advanced to 30 cc per
kilogram per day as of today and was noted to have
abdominal distention. A KUB showed mildly dilated loops
throughout the entire bowel. Continue to gastrointestinal
for further information.
4. GI: As noted earlier, he presented with grossly bloody
stool on [**12-5**], on day of life #37 and was made
n.p.[**Initials (NamePattern5) **] [**Last Name (NamePattern5) 37079**] was placed to low wall suction. He had
evidence of medical necrotizing enterocolitis with KUB
showing multiple areas of pneumatosis over the next 1 to
2 days. Bowel wall appeared thickened in different
locations. He never had any perforation. His CBC was
significant for a bandemia with 25 bands that increased
to 27 bands the following day and later normalized. His
electrolytes remained stable throughout as well as his
platelets which were not lower than 494 after he had the
necrotizing enterocolitis. Today, in the setting of the
increased abdominal distention on the KUB and his high risk
for a stricture, he was sent over to [**Hospital1 **] radiology for
a barium enema and a transverse colonic stricture was
identified.
5. Hematology: He did receive phototherapy and had a peak
bilirubin on day of life #1 of 4.5. His initial
hematocrit was 45.5%. He did receive 1 blood transfusion on
[**11-2**] for a hematocrit of 34. He did receive a
second blood transfusion on the day of his diagnosis of
medical necrotizing enterocolitis. His most recent hematocrit
was on [**12-20**] of 26.6 % with a retic count of 3.2.
His platelets have remained stable throughout the entire
course and he has not received any platelet transfusions.
6. Endocrine: [**Known lastname **] had normal sugars in the first 2 weeks
of life and on day of life 18 was noted to have a D-stick
of 36 and he then continued over the next 1 to 2 weeks to
have intermittent low D-sticks and endocrinology consult
had been obtained and recommended sending an insulin
level as well as growth hormone, urine for ketones,
cortisol, and a blood gas if the blood D-stick was <50.
However, this did not recur and these tests were never
assessed. As a result of his previous history of low D-sticks
which were presumed to be a period of hyperinsulinemia, we
have not advanced his TPN glucose beyond 12.5 trying not
to induce hyperinsulinemia as he was weaned off the PN with
refeeding.
7. Infectious disease: He did receive an initial rule out
sepsis in the first 48 hours. His initial white count was
5.8 with 11 polys and 0 bands with ANC of 638. His blood
cultures were negative and antibiotics were
discontinued after 48 hours. ON [**12-5**], he was started on
vancomycin and gentamicin after he had grossly bloody stools
with the significant bandemia of 27 bands. This was changed
to Zosyn after initial blood cultures were negative and he
continued on Zosyn to complete a total of 16
days, which was 2 days after the KUBs normalized. The
Zosyn has been discontinued since [**2118-12-20**].
8. Neurology: He has had 2 head ultrasounds, which have been
normal ([**11-3**], [**11-29**]). He will
need a third ultrasound at term corrected gestational
age.
9. Ophthalmology: He had his initial eye examination on
[**2118-11-28**]. It showed zone 2 immature. Follow up 2
weeks. On [**12-12**] he had a right stage 1, zone 2, 1
to 2 o'clock hours and left eye was immature with follow
up in 1 week. On [**12-19**] he had right ROP stage 1,
zone 2, 2 to 3 o'clock hours and the left was immature in
zone 2 and follow up in 1 week. This follow up eye
examination will need to be done at [**Hospital3 1810**]
in the last week of [**Month (only) 1096**].
10. Immunizations: He did receive 1 dose of hepatitis B
vaccine on [**11-30**] and will be due to for his first
set of immunizations over the next week.
PRIMARY PEDIATRICIAN: Dr. [**Last Name (STitle) 45269**].
CONDITION AT TRANSFER: Critical.
DISCHARGE DISPOSITION: To [**Hospital3 1810**] level 3 for
surgical repair of the colonic stricture.
CARE RECOMMENDATIONS AT DISCHARGE:
1. Feedings: N.p.o.
2. Medications: Caffeine
3. Car seat positioning has not been done as of yet but will
need to be done prior to infant's discharge home.
4. Newborn state screen status: He has had multiple state
screens with 11/11 state screen normal. A recent repeat
state screen sent on [**2118-12-11**] is still pending at
this time and will need to be followed.
5. Hearing screen status has not been done at this time but
will need to be done prior to infant's discharge.
6. Immunizations received: As noted above, hepatitis B
vaccine and infant will require first set of vaccinations
within a week.
7. As noted above, will require a repeat HUS at term gestational
age.

Brief Hospital Course:
The patient was admitted on [**2117-8-4**] by the thoracic surgery
service to the SICU for treatment and evaluation of massive
hemoptysis. ENT evaluated the patient for bleeding sources:
Fiberoptic exam revealed no source of blood from the nose,
nasopharynx, oropharynx, oral cavity, hypopharynx or larynx;
there were no supraglottic lesions.
CTA on [**8-5**] showed a Left superior segment coiled AVM with an
adjacent ground glass opacity. It was thought that this finding
could represent intraparenchymal hemorrhage or it could
represent aspiration, given the dependent consolidation seen in
both lower lobes and the secretion seen in the right main
bronchus. Imaging also revealed a question of a completely
thrombosed aorta just distal to the origin of the renal arteries
with extensive collaterals in the abdominal wall musculature.
Due to this finding, ultrasound of the aorta was performed.
While a suboptimal study due to bowel gas, arterial flow and
normal waveforms was noted is seen in the right and left distal
most external iliac arteries and common femoral arteries
bilaterally consistent with a prior femoral-femoral bypass.
On [**8-5**], flexible bronchoscopy with narrow-band imaging and
therapeutic aspiration was performed. A fresh blood clot was
identified in the right lower lobe lateral segment which was
therapeutically aspirated. A clot was also identified left
main-stem and this was emanating from the left lower lobe. There
was evidence of possible pulmonary AVMs in the left main-stem
medial segment; however, this was compounded somewhat by the
traumatic appearance of the airways. Under white-light imaging,
these
areas appeared erythematous. No other definitive AVMs were noted
under narrow-band imaging. On [**8-6**], a repeat flexible
bronchoscopy was performed to isolate a source of bleeding.There
was a small clot on the right main stem, however, there were no
clots or active bleeding in the right upper lobe, right middle
lobe, right lower lobe. The left main stem again had a
questionable area of erythema, possible
arteriovenous malformation in the medial aspect of the left main
stem. The left upper lobe and lingula were free from clots or
blood. There was an old blood clot emanating from left lower
lobe, which was therapeutically aspirated. Upon
examination, the anteromedial segment of the left lower lobe
demonstrated a fresh clot with active oozing of blood, which was
confirmed with a bronchial wash. The posterior and lateral
segment of the left lower lobe were both washed and
there was no active oozing. The final impression was that the
Left lower lobe anteromedial segment is likely source of
hemoptysis.
The patient was taken to the angio suite on [**8-6**] for possible
embolization. A preliminary report revealed: 1. Aortogram
demonstrating no visualized bronchial artery branches. 2.
Selective angiograms of intercostal arteries demonstrating no
irregularity. 3. Subclavian arteriogram demonstrating no
abnormality of the left internal mammary artery. No intervention
was performed.
The patient was transferred to the floor on [**8-7**], and kept for
observation. The patient had several more episodes of hemoptysis
on [**8-8**] - 2 tsp of bright red blood without clots - which
resolved without intervention. On the evening of [**2034-8-7**], the
patient had no episodes of hemopysis.
The Interventional Pulmonology team, staff and patient agreed
that is was appropriate to discharge the patient to home on [**8-9**]
with follow as needed. The patient is being discharge stable, in
good condition.
