There are bibasal opacities highly concerning for developing infection. There is vascular congestion but no overt pulmonary edema. No pneumothorax. Old rib fractures on the right. CT ANGIOGRAM OF THE CHEST showed Motion limited examination demonstrates: 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or acute aortic abnormality. 2. Large right and small left effusions, worse when compared to prior MR. 3. Advanced cirrhosis with splenomegaly and gastroesophageal varices, consistent with portal hypertension. 4. Collapse of the right lower lobe due to compressive atelectasis from the large right pleural effusion. 5. Atelectasis or early airspace disease left lung base. Radiology showed Right pigtail catheter with a portions of the curled component both overlying and external to the thoracic cavity. No pneumothorax. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Small right pleural effusion has decreased. Right pleural catheter is in place. There are low lung volumes. Cardiomegaly is stable. Mild vascular congestion has improved. Bibasilar opacities have improved. There is probably small left effusion. There is no evident pneumothorax. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, there is increased haziness at the right base with poor definition of the hemidiaphragm, consistent with reaccumulation of layering pleural effusion. Some of this could merely represent a more upright position of the patient. The cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable. Mild indistinctness of pulmonary vessels is consistent with mild elevation of pulmonary venous pressure. Radiology showed No significant interval change since the prior chest radiograph. BILAT LOWER EXT VEINS showed No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right or left lower extremity veins. Radiology showed Increasing right pleural effusion with underlying atelectasis/consolidation. Chest Radiograph showed Grossly unchanged large right pleural effusion. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Comparison to ___. Mild increase in extent of the pre-existing right pleural effusion and of the resulting atelectasis of the right lower lungs. Stable appearance of the heart and of the left lung. Stable course of the feeding tube. CHEST PORT. LINE PLACEMENT showed Comparison to ___. The patient has been intubated. The tip of the endotracheal tube projects 1 cm above the carinal. The device should be pulled back by approximately 1-2 cm, to avoid intubation of the right main bronchus. The patient has also received a right internal jugular vein catheter. The course of the catheter is unremarkable, the tip projects over the cavoatrial junction. No complications, notably no pneumothorax. The previously placed feeding tube is in stable correct position. Increasing extent of the pre-existing right pleural effusion, with compressive atelectasis of the right lung basis. The left lung and the left heart border appear stable. Radiology showed Findings of gastric obstruction despite the presence of an enteric tube. US ABD LIMIT, SINGLE ORGAN PORT showed Small amount of ascites, mostly seen in the right lower quadrant. Right pleural effusion. DX CHEST PORT LINE/TUBE PLCMT 4 EXAMS showed Feeding tube tip is in the distal stomach. Distended stomach, multiple bowel loops in the upper abdomen. Radiology showed Successful right internal jugular access with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt placement with decrease in porto-systemic pressure gradient. RECOMMENDATION(S): 1. Given the patient's acute hepatic decompensation, the TIPS was under dilated to 6 mm in order to maximize hepatic parenchymal perfusion while still decreasing the portosystemic gradient enough to decrease variceal bleeding. However, the patient continues to be at high risk for rebleed if she does not return for full dilation of the TIPS. We will continue to monitor the patient's LFTs, and when they began to decrease/normalize and her acute hepatic decompensation begins to resolve, we can discuss timing to bring the patient back for TIPS stent dilation. 2. Suggest continued NG tube decompression, given patient's abdominal distention.

The left effusion is much smaller and there are bilateral atelectatic changes at the bases. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, the tip of the endotracheal tube lies approximately 2.2 again there are bilateral layering pleural effusions, more prominent on the right with underlying compressive atelectasis. Although the pulmonary vessels are not well seen, they do appear to be indistinct and engorged, consistent with some elevation of pulmonary venous pressure. In view of the extensive pulmonary changes, it would be extremely difficult to exclude superimposed pneumonia in the appropriate clinical setting, especially in the absence of a lateral view. Cm above the carina. Other monitoring and support devices are stable. Radiology showed Continued dilation of the cecum, with decreased gaseous distention of the other large bowel loops. Radiology showed No gastric distension. Dilatation of the cecum has minimally improved. Improved previously seen distended bowel loops in the pelvis.

The tip of the endotracheal tube projects approximately 25 mm above the carina. There is now complete opacification of the right hemithorax. Stable left retrocardiac atelectasis, stable appearance of the left heart border. UNILAT LOWER EXT VEINS showed No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right lower extremity veins. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Compared to chest radiographs ___ through ___. Very large right pleural effusion completely collapsing right lung and severely shifting mediastinum leftward is unchanged since ___, worsened since ___. Progressive heterogeneous opacification in the left lung could be due to edema from redirected blood flow, but raises concern for widespread aspiration or multifocal pneumonia. Heart size is indeterminate, probably at least mildly enlarged. Indwelling esophageal drainage tube passes a probe ending just above the diaphragm, and is looped in the stomach passing out of view. ET tube in standard placement. Right jugular line ends in the low SVC. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, the endotracheal tube is been removed. An there again is essentially complete opacification of the right hemithorax with some volume loss in the ipsilateral lung, but with shift of the mediastinal contents to the left. Otherwise little change. Again CHEST PORT.

Patient has had a long complicated hospital course, has been transferred twice to the ICU for hypoxemic respiratory failure, most recently on ___ when she then developed hypotension in the setting of bleeding esophageal varices. She underwent TIPS w/banding on ___, without further episodes of GI bleeding. During this MICU stay, she also developed an enterococcus UTI which was treated with linezolid. She continued to be febrile and hypotensive even after a full treatment course, and in this setting received further broad spectrum antibiotics and antifungals. A family meeting was held, and the decision was made to focus on comfort measures only. Antibiotics were therefore stopped, and when this happened her fevers also stopped and her mental status improved. Infectious work-up, including pleural fluid and ascitic fluid, remains negative. She continued to have ongoing large hepatic hydrothorax, requiring frequent thoracentesis and at one point a chest tube was placed. However given the large volume output and subsequent fluid/hemodynamic shifts as well as the rapid reaccumulation of fluid, the chest tube was removed and she was aggressively diuresed with Lasix gtt, spironolactone, torsemide/metolazone with improvement. Given ongoing hypoxemia, repeat chest xray was done which showed improvement of hydrothorax but also revealed a consolidation consistent with HAP. Patient was treated with HAP coverage with resolution of oxygen requirement. After a palliative consult, patient made it clear she wanted everything to be done so she could go home healthy and see her family/new grandson. Patient was discharged to an LTAC. #CAP: presented with CAP on CXR, treated with CTX, azithro until ___. #Fever: Patient had temperature of 100.8 on ___. Urine thought to be most likely source given weakly positive UA and patient was empirically covered with linezolid given h/o VRE; when urine culture returns her LTAC will be contacted to narrow her antibiotics. #HAP #Respiratory Distress/Tachypnea/R Pleural Effusion/Pneumonia Patient initially transferred to the MICU for tachypnea and hypoxemia. Found to have an acute increase in R sided pleural effusion concerning for recurrent hepatic hydrothorax with evidence of acute pulmonary edema. She had negative CTA, and TTE was without intrapulmonary shunting. She was diuresed aggressively with and started on duonebs and albuterol along with levofloxacin with improvement in her oxygenation. On ___ - TIPS upsize was performed by ___ with further diuresis w/ Lasix and metolazone with further improvement in her respiratory status. She was subsequently transferred out of the ICU to the floor, where she continued to be hypoxemic. CXR showed worsening right hydrothorax so patient had several thoracentesis done to help alleviate this. Once improved, patient continued to be hypexoemic. Repeat CXR showed forming consolication consistent with HAP. Patient was treated with vanc and ceftax for 8 days. Oxygen requirement resolved. # E. Coli UTI: UCx grew E. Coli sensitive to CTX. She was treated with CTX from ___ to ___. #Alcoholic cirrhosis/hepatitis w/ grade 2 varices and encephalopathy: Continued home FoLIC Acid, rifaxamin, lactulose, spironolactone; held nadolol briefly while in the ICU. # Hyponatremia: Patient had an acute decrease in sodium with a nadir of 126. This was thought to be a combination of diuretic effect and SIADH in the setting of her lung disease. She was placed on a fluid restriction with some improvement in her sodium. She was discharged on a 1.2L fluid restriction with a sodium of 130. #Weight loss/poor nutrition/Refeeding: Started on tubefeeds with nutrition following. #Anemia Hb slightly down from baseline on admission, drop in H/H with hematemesis on ___ with multiple transfusions of PRBC, on endoscopy bleeding esophageal varices s/p TIPS and banding on ___.

ACUTE ISSUES #Fall #Fractured humerus: The patient initially presented in the setting of a mechanical fall, though she may have had prodromal symptoms of dizziness. XR of the R arm ultimately showed a proximal humeral fracture. Orthopedics determined that there was no indication for operative management and recommended pain control with physical therapy. She was made non-weight bearing with the RUE. The patient was seen by physical and occupational therapy and felt that the patient should undergo a period of acute rehab. However, the patient preferred to go home with additional services given poor experiences at rehab in the past. #Supraventricular tachycardia: In-house, the patient was noted to have intermittent increases in her heart rate to the 140s that were intermittently symptomatic with lightheadedness and palpitations. Electrophysiology was consulted and recommended Linq recorder placement and addition of diltiazem for rate control. The patient ultimately achieved excellent rate control and her Linq recorder placed on ___ without incident. CHRONIC ISSUES # R breast with ductal/lobular features on letrozole (ER+/PR+/HER2- Gr2 R, no surgical intervention planned): Patient follows with Dr. ___ (hematology/oncology) and Dr. ___ ___ (breast surgery). Letrozole was continued in-house. # HTN: Home ACE-i was held given normotension. # Dyslipidemia: Continued home pravastatin. # Insomnia: Continued home amitriptyline, though patient did note dry mouth.

Fall reportedly occurred after she attempted to use the washroom at night, without assistance, in the dark, and without her walker. She sustained head trauma and she denied preceding symptoms and is unsure if she lost consciousness. In the Emergency Department she was worked up to assess for injury after the fall. CT head, pelvis film, and right femur film did not show any significant findings. However, a CT of the spine showed new apparent borderline widening of atlantodens interval to 3 mm since ___. Gerontology evaluated her on HD#1 and, after discussion, it was felt that the etiology of her fall was multifactorial though likely involved a mechanical component as she tried to walk without her walker or shoes in the setting of long-standing residual right sided weakness after her previous stroke. The fall was considered unlikely to be due to syncopal episode (she is on a number of antihypertensives though her blood pressure has been 130s-170s systolic while she has been on the floor) and given her lack of urinary symptoms (aside from increased frequency over weeks to months in the setting of furosemide)it was also considered unlikely to be related to complicated cystitis. She is being discharged with a soft neck collar which she is to wear for 1 week until she follows up with her orthopedist Dr. ___ she ___ also get follow up flexion-extension films). #Complicated cystitis: In addition, a urinalysis was performed in the ED which showed signs of urinary tract infection. It was thought that urinary tract infection may be a possible cause of fall and therefore she was admitted for further work-up. While in the ED she received one dose of nitrofurantoin and upon admission to the floor she was given 1g IV ceftriaxone. Labs were drawn again on the morning of ___ and she was found to have a new leukocytosis (to 14.7) with left shift. Initially, there was reservation to treat her for an infection given unreliable symptoms, however, the leukocytosis made the case more compelling so she was given a 10 day course of cefpodoxime.

Patient reports that she was seen by her PCP over the weekend and was prescribed antibiotics for a UTI. Symptoms worsened and she went to her PCP again yesterday and was started on Cipro and Bactrim. The pain has progressed and moved into her left flank and LLQ. Describes her pain as constant, radiating to her back and has a pulling nature to it. Was initially having nausea but that has resolved. Endorses chills and some discomfort with urination and defecation, but no blood in her stool or urine, dysuria, urgency or other urinary symptoms. Denies CP/SOB, N/V, VB, abnormal vaginal discharge, weight changes. PELVIS, NON-OBSTETRIC showed In the pelvis, there is a complex structure without internal vascularity with both solid and fluid components measuring up to 12.4 cm across maximal diameter. There is no peripheral hyperemia. The differential for this structure could be large hematoma with a clot versus combination mass with superimposed hematoma or less likely an atypical peritoneal inclusion cyst or abscess. Given the lack of internal vascularity, this is less likely to be a mass. However, pelvic MRI can be considered for further characterization. MRI of the Pelvis showed 1. Enlarged right ovary which is encompassed by various stages of blood products, without discrete enhancing ovarian parenchyma. Differential diagnoses considerations include a torsed ovary with hemorrhage, a ruptured hemorrhagic cyst, or given various stages of blood product ruptured endometrioma, as there is no mass-like enhancement an ovarian neoplasm is felt to be less likely, although not completely excluded given that it could be complete by masked by overlying blood products. 2. Peritoneal inclusion cyst surrounding the left ovary with internal hemorrhage. 3. Abnormal T2 hypointense signal in the left ovary, raises the possibility of underlying endometriosis. 4. Subcentimeter pelvic sidewall lymph nodes are likely reactive.

She was initially kept NPO on IV fluids in case of potential drainage or surgical procedure. She remained hemodynamically stable with stable hematocrits. Her pain was controlled with IV medications given her NPO status and she underwent serial abdominal exams, which revealed stable lower abdominal discomfort, but no peritoneal signs. Imaging was discussed with interventional radiology and it was felt that the mass appeared to be primarily clot and therefore would not be amenable or advisable for percutaneous drainage. Ms. ___ then underwent further imaging of the collection with pelvic sonogram and pelvic MRI (full radiology impressions are elsewhere in this document). On ___ her pelvic MRI was read and discussed with radiology. At this time it was felt that the mass likely originated from the patient's right ovary and was possibly a hemorrhagic ruptured cyst vs. endometrioma vs. torsed ovary vs. less likely ovarian mass. Given these imaging findings it was felt that she would be ___ served on the gynecology service and transfer was arranged. MRI revealed a right adnexal mass concerning for ovarian torsion versus ruptured endometrioma. She was transferred to the gynecology service and on ___, she underwent a laparoscopic bilateral oophorectomy, right ureteral lysis, anterior lysis, placement of right double-J stent, rigid proctoscopy and sigmoidoscopy, and cystoscopy. Please see operative report for full details. Immediately postoperatively, her pain was controlled with IV morphine. She was subsequently transitioned to oral oxycodone, Tylenol, and ibuprofen.

Hepatitis panel was negative and RUQ US was WNL. #History of Opioid Abuse - Stable, ___ clinic confirmed dosage of 1.25 tabs. Pt was on 1 tab during the hospitalization and did well with this, could consider decreasing dose as an outpt. #Depression - Stable, has not been receiving home medications due to initial concern for serotonin syndrome in the ICU. Patient was feeling well without medications and so these were held at discharge. She should see her psychiatrist after discharge. # Shock, likely septic: She was febrile, tachycardic, with leukocytosis in ED. She was initially hemodynamically stable, then became hypotensive refractory to fluids after intubation, requiring levophed. This was subsequently discontinued as BPs improved. Most likely etiology of shock is sepsis given the fevers and leukocytosis. Possible sources include pulmonary in the setting of aspiration. UA was unremarkable and LP did not demonstrate meningitis. Medication effect is also possible given the temporal relationship with sedation and intubation. She was weaned from pressors and sedation and extubated. She was treated broadly on vancomycin/zosyn. #Acute hypercarbic/hypoxic respiratory failure / Mild ARDS: She was intubated due to inability to protect airway in setting of seizures. Chest x-ray showed rapidly worsening bilateral effusions and edema, which was concerning for ARDS vs. aggressive fluid resuscitation. P/F ratio was 264. She was maintained on low tidal volume ventilation, covered on antibiotics as above. She had improving chest x-rays and was extubated. #Anion gap metabolic acidosis due to lactic acidosis: Initial gas post intubation was 6.75/58. Gap rapidly closed and pH normalized as lactate cleared. Lactate was likely elevated due to seizure given the rapid clearance. She was initially treated with fomepizole for concern for ethylene glycol poisoning, but assay was negative. This resolved as she improved. # Leukocytosis: WBC was 16 on admission, without neutrophilic predominance. ___ be reactive in the setting of seizures or due to infection.

Temporally, it is associated with the initiation of Lyrica in the past two weeks. Other iatrogenic causes included meclizine. Hypotension from qhs use of imdur with higher dose carvedilol as well as hypoglycemia from qhs use of metformin can both cause morning lightheadedness. Other medications include meclizine, flexeril, Ultram, oxycodone, lasix. There is no evidence of orthostatic hypotension on the physical exam. URI and overall deconditioning could also be contributing factors. We continued her pain medication, including oxycodone and ultram, held her flexeril, meclizine, and decreased imdur from 60 mg qhs to 30 mg qAM, and decreased her carvedilol to 25 mg bid. We would recommend taking the medication in the morning rather than at night. . # Back pain: Pt has chronic lower back pain managed with epidural injection every three months and chronic pain medication. There were no red flag signs concerning for cord compression on the exam. She has known anterolisthesis of L4/L5, and prior diagnosis of spinal stenosis. Her chronic pancreatitis could potentially contribute to her pain. Depression is a potential cause/contributor to her symptoms. The resolution of her back pain is unlikely during his hospitalization.

He was transferred to ___ and admitted to the ___ for further management. He was treated for possible aspiration pneumonia and encephalomeningitis. ___ revealed severe mitral regurgitation secondary to an aneurysmal/perforated anterior mitral leaflet. Cardiac surgery consulted for mitral valve repair vs. replacement. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Enteric tube courses below the diaphragm, out of the field of view. Endotracheal tube terminates approximately 5 cm above the carina. Extensive bilateral pulmonary opacities. Differential diagnosis includes massive aspiration, extensive multifocal pneumonia, severe pulmonary edema. Associated bilateral pleural effusions not excluded. No prior available for comparison. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Pulmonary edema is unchanged. Support lines and tubes are also unchanged. Bilateral effusions are stable. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is unchanged. No pneumothorax. Chest radiograph, portable AP upright. showed Endotracheal tube terminating about 6 cm above the carina. Poor visualization of distal course of orogastric tube. Stable extensive pulmonary opacities most suggestive of severe multifocal pneumonia. Chest radiograph, portable AP semi-upright. showed Right internal jugular catheter is new, terminating in the upper superior vena cava. No other significant change. No pneumothorax. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, the monitoring and support devices are stable. The extensive opacification in the right hemithorax has decreased, with little overall change in the left hemithorax. In view of the enlargement of the cardiac silhouette, this change could represent decreasing pulmonary edema, with the remaining opacification reflecting bilateral areas of pneumonia. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, the monitoring and support devices are stable. Cardiomediastinal silhouette is unchanged and the diffuse bilateral pulmonary opacifications appear more prominent.

Cytologic evaluation was negative for malignant cells and no microorganisms were seen on gram stain or culture. After the procedure her pain had improved, though not completely. Our team believed this was most likely due to the multiple cysts that were not drained. We spoke extensively with the patient regarding the utility of further aspiration procedures. We noted that is very difficult to determine which cysts are generating her pain and that the cysts can re-accumulate fluid. Also explained the risk of infection and bleeding with each additional procedure. Given that her pain was "tolerable", she elected to defer any additional procedures at this time. We told her this can be readdressed as an outpatient if her pain level changes. Additionally, patient had diarrhea for ___ days after her procedure.

An MRCP from ___ revealed an 8 mm choledochocele with mild mass effect against the adjacent pancreatic duct and mild upstream pancreatic duct dilation to 5 mm. The CBD measures up to 6 mm. Mild prominence of the intrahepatic bile ducts. The patient had an ERCP on ___, with sphincterotomy performed and biospy of the choledocal cyst done afterwards. The patient was also noted to have the presence of an abnormal pancreatobiliary junction. He was able to tolerate a normal diet the following day and made a bowel movement prior to discharge. The biopsy results will need to be followed up on and he will need a referral to a gastroenterologist specializing in endoscopy. His LFTs also downtrended post-procedure and are expected to normalize. A repeat check of LFTs in ___ weeks will be at the discretion of the patient's PCP.</s>
<s>[INST] <<SYS>> Act as a health expert <</SYS>> create brief hospital course of the following text: HMED ATTENDING INITIAL NOTE DATE: ___ TIME SEEN 330 AM ================================== HPI: ___ yo female with history of pulmonary hypertension, multiple myeloma, presents after syncope. She was getting into her daughter's car when she was noted to be unresponsive, eyes rolling to the back of her head and was noted to have shaking movements. She was pulled out onto the curb and layed flat, she was noted to have continued shaking movements without enuresis. No fecal incontinence. After she recovered consciousness on the order of minutes she was noted to be oriented. Patient denies any prodrome other than "feeling funny" to the ED physician but to author she reports feeling very short of breath. She felt as though she was going to die. She denies feeling as though the curtains were closing and she was going to pass out. She denied shortness of breath with baseline activity but her dtr reported to her RN that she does get SOB with exertion. She reported L sided anterior ___ chest pain, worse with inspiration. She does not report other pains. She was wearing a scarf when this occurred but this is normal for her in the winter. No sx when she turns her head. She felt well prior to the incident and had eaten dinner approximately an hour before her daughter came to pick her up. She denies chest pain on exertion. At baseline she has lower extremity edema but this is improved compared to her baseline. She had a good full BM in the ED in the commode prior to coming to the floor. No report of dark or bloody stool. CTA CHEST showed 1. No evidence of pulmonary embolism or acute aortic abnormality. 2. Multiple thyroid nodules, measuring up to 1.2 cm on the right. 3. Diffuse pancreatic ductal prominence within area focal dilation measuring up to 8 mm, increased from ___. Recommend correlation with interval prior abdominal imaging, if available. Otherwise, recommend follow-up with MRCP (or CT pf thepancreas if patient cannot tolerate MRCP) to exclude an obstructing lesion. 4. Multiple thoracic vertebral body compression fractures at T3-T6 and T9-T10, similar to ___. Remote fractures of the left lateral second rib and sternum. RECOMMENDATION(S): Correlation with prior abdominal imaging to determine chronicity of pancreatic ductal dilation. If no recent imaging is available, recommend follow-up with CT or MRI to exclude an obstructing lesion. The patient was diagnosed with Syncope and collapse. At the time of discharge, the patient had Primary: orthostatic hypotension syncope. The patient was given written instructions concerning precautionary instructions and the appropriate follow-up care. All questions were answered prior to discharge. The patient expressed readiness for discharge. [/INST] </s><s>Ms. ___ is an ___ year old woman with a history of pulmonary hypertension and multiple myeloma who presents with syncope after getting into her daughters car. # Syncope: Highest on the differential is orthostasis vs cardiac etiology. Orthostatic signs are positive with precipitation of her symptoms. Concern for worsening RV function in the setting of pulmonary hypertension. No evidence of PE on CTA. EKG at baseline, troponins elevated on admission, though downtrended. CK-MB flat. Telemetry without evidence of arrhythmias. Low suspicion for seizure activity or vasovagal. ECHO revealed no changes from prior. # Orthostatic hypotension: Patient presented with symptomatic Orthostasis. Differential included worsening RV function as above vs autonomic dysfunction, vs adrenal insufficiency, aging, and the effect of medications. ECHO revealed no changes from prior. AM cortisol was wnl. B12 level was WNL. Home antihypertensives were initially held. She wore TEDS during her admission and HOB was kept elevated 30 degrees. Side effect of donepezil was also considered, but this was continued as her orthostatic hypotension resolved with fluids and improved PO intake. # Multiple myeloma: S/P induction velcade with clinical and laboratory response. Now off of treatment, though with evidence of multiple compression fractures throughout on CT. # Left sided chest pain: CTA with evidence of numerous fractures, including left sided 2nd rib fracture, which is consistent with where the patient is experiencing pain. Pain control with standing Tylenol, lidocaine patch, and tramadol PRN. # Memory impairment: Continued donepezil # Insomnia: Continued remeron ***TRANSITIONAL ISSUES*** - Pancreatic lesion: CTA at admission incidentally noted diffuse pancreatic ductal prominence with an area of focal dilation measuring up to 8mm, increased from ___. No interval imaging available for comparison. Consider MRCP for further evaluation as outpatient. Patient's lipase and LFTs overall unremarkable and patient was asymptomatic. </s>
