Unchanged, comminuted, nondisplaced fracture of the left base of the odontoid process with extension into the C2 body. 5. Right thyroid lobe demonstrates a coarsely calcified 1.3 cm nodule. A 0.8 cm hypodense peripherally calcified left thyroid lobe nodule. RECOMMENDATION(S): Calcified thyroid nodules described above. This could be further evaluated with ultrasound as clinically indicated. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) was done. Radiology showed Successful trans arterial embolization of a left superior gluteal artery branch, the posterior division of the left internal iliac artery, a muscular branch of the internal iliac artery, and the left L5 lumbar artery. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, there is obscuration of the hemidiaphragm and hazy opacification of the multiple rib fractures are somewhat difficult to see and there is no evidence of pneumothorax. Although the cardiac silhouette is within normal limits, there are bilateral opacifications concerning for pulmonary edema. The left hemithorax, consistent with layering pleural fluid and basilar atelectasis. CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST showed 1. The exam is mildly degraded by patient motion and limited due to circulating contrast from patient's recent CTA neck. 2. Interval progression of subdural hemorrhages, now with bilateral convexity subdural hemorrhages measuring up to 3 mm noted. 3. Left parietal scalp soft tissue swelling with skin staples. MRI CERVICAL AND THORACIC showed 1. Only sagittal cervical spine images obtained. Examination is motion degraded. Within these confines: 2. STIR hyperintense marrow signal of the T1 and T3 superior endplates compatible with acute fractures, not visualized on prior CT examinations. 3. Re identification of known C2 fractures with very minimal prevertebral STIR hyperintense signal likely representing a small hematoma or edema. 4. No evidence for epidural hematoma or cord signal abnormality. 5. No definitive ligamentous injury of the anterior longitudinal ligament, posterior longitudinal ligament or ligamentum flavum. 6. STIR hyperintense signal of the paraspinal muscles and interspinous ligaments, compatible with injury. 7. Mild anterolisthesis of C2 on C3 and C7 on T1 with retrolisthesis of C3 on C4 and C4 on C5, which is almost certainly degenerative in nature given the lack of definitive ligamentous injury. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the earlier study of this date, there has been placement of an endotracheal tube with its tip approximately 3.5 cm above the carina. The tip of the left central catheter is at the level of the cavoatrial junction or possibly upper right atrium. There is some asymmetry of opacification at the left base. This could possibly represent posttraumatic hematoma. In the appropriate clinical setting, superimposed pneumonia could be considered. The cardiac silhouette is at the upper limits of normal. Some indistinctness of pulmonary vessels could reflect some elevation of pulmonary venous pressure. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, there is little change in the monitoring and support devices and the appearance of the heart and lungs. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the earlier study of this date, the monitoring and support devices are essentially unchanged. Continued asymmetric opacification at the left base that could represent posttraumatic hematoma or, in the appropriate clinical setting, superimposed pneumonia. The cardiac silhouette is unchanged. There may be minimal elevation of pulmonary venous pressure. CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST Q111 CT HEAD showed 1. Subdural collections are now predominantly isodense to hypodense, but have increased in size bilaterally as detailed above. No associated midline shift. No new hemorrhages or infarctions identified. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Esophageal drainage tube ends in the upper stomach. ET tube and left subclavian line are in standard placements. Moderate left pleural effusion and small right pleural effusion have increased. Heart size is normal. Previously questioned atelectasis early consolidation in the superior segment of the left lower lobe is less apparent, and may have improved. Heart size normal. No pneumothorax. CHEST PORT. LINE PLACEMENT was done. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, there is little change in the appearance of the monitoring and support devices. Little overall change in the appearance of the heart and lungs, though the degree of vascular prominence appears slightly less. HIP UNILAT MIN 2 VIEWS LEFT showed Fluoroscopic images show all placement of a fixation device about the left acetabular fracture. Further information can be gathered from the operative report. MR THORACIC SPINE W/O CONTRAST ___ MR ___ SPINE showed 1. Fractures of the T1, T3 and T5 vertebral bodies with no significant osseous retropulsion. High signal in the T9-10 disc space extending into the inferior endplate of T9, which is suggestive of a bony fracture extending into the disc space (acute traumatic Schmorl's node). No spinal cord injury. 2. Multilevel degenerative changes, as described above. 3. Moderate bilateral pleural effusions with associated atelectasis. Cystourethrogram showed No evidence of bladder or urethral leak. There is a left bladder diverticulum. Mild bilateral ureteral contrast reflux noted. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, there is little change in the appearance of the monitoring and support devices. The cardiac silhouette is within normal limits and there is again layering bilateral pleural effusions with compressive atelectasis and some elevation of pulmonary venous pressure. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, the monitoring and support devices are stable. Cardiac silhouette remains within normal limits. AC opacification bilaterally is consistent with layering effusions and compressive atelectasis, probably with some element of elevated pulmonary venous pressure. Given the extensive pulmonary changes and the absence of a lateral view, it would be difficult to unequivocally exclude superimposed pneumonia in the appropriate clinical setting. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed There continue be layering bilateral effusions with appearance of superimposed mild to moderate pulmonary and interstitial edema. There is also likely bibasilar compressive atelectasis. Cardiac and mediastinal contours are stable. No pneumothorax. Right subclavian PICC, nasogastric tube and endotracheal tube are unchanged in position. Interval removal of the right internal jugular and left subclavian central lines. Stable thoracolumbar curvature. DX CHEST PORTABLE PICC LINE PLACEMENT showed In comparison with the earlier study of this date, there has been placement of a right subclavian PICC line that extends to the lower SVC at about the same level as the left subclavian catheter. Otherwise little change except for apparent removal of a right IJ sheath. . CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Endotracheal tube has its tip at the thoracic inlet. The right subclavian PICC line is unchanged in position. A nasogastric tube is seen coursing below the diaphragm with the tip not identified. Stable layering bilateral effusions with patchy bibasilar airspace opacities consistent with compressive atelectasis. There has been interval improvement in the mild interstitial edema. Overall cardiac and mediastinal contours are likely unchanged given patient rotation on the current study. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Comparison to ___. No relevant change. Decrease in extent of the pre-existing pleural effusions. Decrease is more obvious on the right and on the left. Retrocardiac atelectasis persists. Normal size of the cardiac silhouette. No pulmonary edema. The monitoring and support devices are in unchanged normal position. LIVER OR GALLBLADDER US (SINGLE ORGAN) showed 1. Normal sonographic appearance of the liver. 2. Partial visualized bilateral pleural effusions. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Moderate bilateral pleural effusions increased since ___. There is also the suggestion of consolidation in at least the right mid and lower lung zone due to pneumonia, or alternatively atelectasis. Interstitial edema present elsewhere in the lungs is mild, but increased. Heart size is normal. Cardiopulmonary support devices in standard placements. . NOTIFICATION: Dr. ___ reported the findings to Dr ___ by telephone on ___ at 10:55 AM, 2 minutes after discovery of the findings. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of earlier in this date, there has been placement of a right pigtail catheter with apparent decrease in the layering pleural effusion. However, there also has been decrease in the layering effusion on the left, raising the possibility that some of the apparent improvement on the right is merely due to a more erect position of the patient. No definite pneumothorax. The endotracheal tube is been removed and replaced with a tracheostomy, which appears well seated without evidence of pneumomediastinum. Otherwise, little change. BILAT LOWER EXT VEINS showed No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right or left lower extremity veins. BILAT UP EXT VEINS US showed No evidence of deep vein thrombosis in the left upper extremity veins. Limited evaluation of the left internal jugular vein due to overlying bandages. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, in there is little change. Right pigtail catheter remains in place and there is no evidence of pneumothorax or recurrent pleural effusion. On the left, the hemidiaphragm is not as sharply seen and there is hazy opacification at the base, consistent with layering effusion. Is unclear whether this change reflect a new development of pleural fluid or merely a more recumbent position of the patient. Radiology showed No significant interval change. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Right pigtail pleural drainage tube is still in place. There is no appreciable right pleural effusion or pneumothorax. Moderate left pleural effusion and left basal atelectasis are unchanged. Right lower lobe consolidation has improved since ___, subsequently stable since ___. Tracheostomy tube is midline, right PIC line ends in the low SVC, esophageal tube passes into the stomach and out of view. Heart size is normal. No pneumothorax. Radiology showed 1. Peribronchiolar opacity within the right lower lobe with air bronchograms may reflect aspiration though infectious process is difficult to exclude. 2. Diffuse anasarca with bilateral layering and nonhemorrhagic pleural effusions, left greater than right. Partially imaged right chest tube with locules of air within the right pleural space. 3. No intra-abdominal or pelvic abscess or evidence of infectious process. Stool fills the colon without evidence of obstruction. 4. Re- demonstration of pelvic fractures and multiple displaced rib fractures. Near complete resolution of hematoma involving the left iliacus and gluteus muscles. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed As compared to previous radiograph from 1 day earlier, right pleural catheter remains in place, with no substantial pleural effusion. Unusual sharpness of right hemidiaphragm could reflect a basilar pneumothorax. Moderate to large layering left pleural effusion has apparently increased in size, although positional differences of the studies limit comparison. No other relevant change. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed As compared to previous radiograph from 1 day earlier, right pigtail pleural catheter remains in place, with no visible pneumothorax. Overall, no relevant change since recent study. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed AS COMPARED TO PREVIOUS RADIOGRAPH FROM EARLIER THE SAME DATE, A LEFT PIGTAIL PLEURAL CATHETER HAS BEEN PLACED WITH SUBSTANTIAL DECREASE IN LEFT PLEURAL EFFUSION BUT DEVELOPMENT OF A MODERATE SIZED LEFT HYDRO PNEUMOTHORAX WITH SUBSTANTIAL BASILAR COMPONENT. RIGHT PIGTAIL PLEURAL CATHETER ALSO REMAINS IN PLACE WITH INCREASING SMALL RIGHT PLEURAL EFFUSION AND ADJACENT RIGHT BASILAR ATELECTASIS. NO OTHER RELEVANT CHANGE. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed A bilateral indwelling pleural drainage catheters are unchanged in their respective positions. Only small pleural effusions remain, right improved since ___. No pneumothorax Bibasilar consolidation, probably mostly atelectasis on the left, conceivably aspiration pneumonia on the right has improved. There is no pulmonary edema. Heart size normal. Tracheostomy tube is slightly rotated. Right PIC line ends in the low SVC. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Moderate right pleural effusion has increased. No appreciable left pleural effusion. No pneumothorax. Bilateral pigtail pleural drainage catheters are unchanged in their respective positions. Some of the worsening opacification in the right lower chest is probably due to concurrent atelectasis, possibly severe. The upper lungs however are clear. Heart size is normal. Tracheostomy tube is slightly turned in should be evaluated to see that it is appropriately positioned. A right PIC line ends in the low SVC. HIP 1 VIEW showed In comparison with the operative study of ___, there is little change in the fixation device about the left supra-acetabular fracture. No evidence of hardware-related complication. Of incidental note is residual contrast material within the rectosigmoid. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Comparison to ___. The monitoring and support devices are unchanged, with the exception that the right PICC line has been removed. The bilateral pigtail catheters in the pleural space are constant. Improved ventilation of the right lung with decrease in extent of a pre-existing small pleural effusion. The left lung is stable. Borderline size of the cardiac silhouette persists. No new focal parenchymal opacities. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Compared to prior chest radiographs ___ through ___ at 05:00. Previous mild to moderate asymmetric pulmonary edema has cleared from the left lung over the past day. Residual abnormality in the right lower lung is probably pneumonia. Small left pleural effusion persists despite the pigtail drainage catheter its on both sides. No pneumothorax. Heart size normal. Tracheostomy tube is persistently rotated, should be examined to make sure it is properly positioned. Radiology showed Since the prior study, there is a pacemaker on the left with leads projecting over the right atrium and ventricle. There is a pigtail catheter in the left chest centrally and a second catheter in the right base these are stable. There is no pneumothorax. Endotracheal tube tip is unchanged. There is no new consolidation. Radiology showed There is new patchy density in both lung bases. Tubes and lines are stable. There is no pneumothorax or CHF.

[/INST] </s><s>Ms. ___ is a ___ ___ speaking woman with a history of DM II, CVA, cognitive impairment, atrial fibrillation, and recent NSTEMI who initially presented to an OSH (___) s/p fall and was found to have elevated troponin, non-elevated CK-MB, and fever/leukocytosis. She was transferred to ___ for management of NSTEMI. Her initial exam was concerning for meningitis, but LP was negative. ACTIVE ISSUES 1. Fever/Leukocytosis: Patient's WBC was markedly elevated to 24 upon transfer, from a baseline of 7 on ___. Given nuchal rigidity, photophobia, and AMS on initial exam, patient's symptoms were initially concerning for meningitis and she was covered empirically with vancomycin, cepefime, Bactrim (for Listeria, given PCN allergy), and acyclovir. Her heparin gtt was held for 6 hours and she underwent ___ LP, showing just 1 WBC. Bactrim was therefore discontinued. Acyclovir was discontinued after 48 hours. Patient was continued on vancomycin and cefepime with improvement in her leukocytosis and in her fever curve. Blood cultures from ___ grew coag negative staph in 1 bottle, which was thought to be a contaminent. The etiology of her infection remained unclear; differential included pneumonia (though lung exam remained unremarkable), C. dif (though no diarrhea developed), and pyelo (given LL pole lesion on renal u/s, though UA's were unconvincing). Patient underwent abdominal ultrasound, which showed mild dilation of pancreatic duct but no clear infectious source. She was followed by the ID service. Sputum cultures were unrevealing. Antibiotics were stopped on ___ and patient remained afebrile and without leukocytosis. 2. LFT Abnormalities: Patient had elevated LDH and transaminases. Transaminases initially improved, then trended up again to 100's. This may have been due to a drug reaction, given exposure to multiple antibiotics including Bactrim early in hospitalization. CK was initially high but trended down. Lymphoproliferative disorder was also considered, especially given axillary LAD seen on CT scan, but patient had no clear evidence of malignancy. 2. AMS: Patient was altered upon presentation, A+O x 1 from a baseline of A+O x 2. Although there was initially concern for meningitis as above, her LP was negative. Her AMS was likely due to delerium in the setting of infection, as mental status rapidly improved to baseline with antibiotics. Seizure was considered given patient's history of seizure, but it was felt to be less likely given patient has been adherent to Keppra. 3. Troponin Elevation: Patient presented with troponin elevation and EKG changes initially concerning for NSTEMI. However, normal MB and rise in LDH suggested possibility of non-cardiac source, and these changes were most likely due to demand in the setting of severe infection. She was started on Plavix and a heparin gtt, which were both stopped as ACS became less likely. Giving climbing CK, atorvastatin 80 mg daily (started at outside hospital) was discontinued. CK downtrended. In order to simplify nodal blockade and because of renal failure, patient was transitioned from atenolol and diltiazem to metoprolol. She was continued on ___ 325 mg daily (high dose for a. fib). 4. Acute Kidney Injury: Patient's admission Cr was 2.2 from a baseline of 0.9. This was likely due to prerenal physiology in the setting of infection, which was supported by FeNa of 0.5%. Repeat uring 'lytes on ___ show no EOS, and FeNa had increased to 1.43%, suggesting an intrinsic renal process such as ATN. Patient received IV fluids and creatinine improved. 5. Atrial Fibrillation: Patient has a CHADS2 score of 6. She is on ___ 325mg daily but not systemically anticoagulated (per ___ notes, this is due to history of ICA aneurysm and high fall risk). Her predominant rhythm was a. fib, though she was intermittently in sinus. Her nodal blocade was changed from atenolol to metoprolol in the setting of renal failure and diltiazem was discontinued. As an outpatient, may consider risk/benefit of systemic anticoagulation. 6. Chronic Diastolic CHF: EF 57%. Patient was hypovolemic in the setting of infection. She received IVF. Home lasix was held due to ___. 7. Failed Speech & Swallow: Patient had a speech and swallow evaluation and was advised to be a strict NPO. This was discussed extensively with patient and family, who reported her swallowing deficits are from a prior stroke and unchanged from recent baseline. The risk of aspiratory pneumonia was discussed extensively with patient and family, who preferred for patient to continue to eat for comfort. 8. HTN: In final days of hospitalization, patient was increasingly hypertensive. Amlodipine was added to her regimen with good effect. CHRONIC ISSUES 1. DM II: Last A1C was 6.5% in ___. Patient's metformin was held and she received ISS. 2. HLD: Last LDL 140 in ___. Patient was initially started on high-dose atorvastatin for NSTEMI, which was then stopped given no evidence of cardiac event, elevated CK and transaminases. 3. Epilepsy: Patient has a history of seizure and takes levetiracetam. Her dose was reduced from 1000 mg BID to ___ mg BID because of ___. She resumed her home dose on day of discharge. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES - Trend Cr for stability and LFT's for resolution of elevation - Needs dental follow-up as outpt to complete infectious work-up - Recheck cholesterol panel as outpatient and consider need for statin if CK and transaminase return to normal levels - Consider risk/benefit of systemic anticoagulation with Coumadin - MRI vs targed ultrasound to evaluate hypodense lesion seen on CT and ultrasound - Repeat CT scan of chest in 6 months to monitor non-specific axillary lymphadenopathy - consider repeat RUQ US vs ERCP to re-assess and further work-up mildly dilated pancreatic duct seen on RUQ US - Pending studies at discharge ### CSF viral culture (___): pending ### Sputum fungal culture (___): pending</s>

He hit his head. He states that he falls frequently. Today, he went to see his sister, and could barely stand up, so his sister called EMS. After the fall, he reports experiencing pain "over his entire body." He cannot localize the pain more specifically than that. CT CHEST W/CONTRAST showed Indeterminate bilateral pulmonary nodules. . Stable mild compression fractures T5, T6 vertebral bodies. Mild paravertebral edema T4-T5 level, may represent reactive change, possibly related to fractures if they are acute or subacute, or infiltrative process, . Stable indistinct bilateral T4-T5 facet joints, may be degenerative, consider septic arthritis if clinically suspected RECOMMENDATION(S): Consider further evaluation with tissue sampling.

MR WRIST ___ CONTRAST LEFT showed 1. Diffuse bone marrow edema of the carpal bones as well as the distal radius and ulna, associated with extensive synovitis of the DRUJ and carpal joints. A few scattered erosions noted. Findings are compatible with inflammatory arthropathy, including rheumatoid arthritis in other inflammatory arthritides. However, in the appropriate clinical setting, an indolent infection such as mycobacterial and non microbacterial TB can have a similar appearance. 2. Tear of the radial band of the TFCC, with synovitis in the distal radioulnar joint. . 3. Areas of osteoarthritis including the first CMC, triscaphe and radiocarpal articulations. s HAND (PA,LAT AND OBLIQUE) LEFT showed Pronounced periarticular osteopenia. Pronounced soft tissue swelling about the wrist, second MCP and second PIP joints. No definite erosion, though the IP joints are not well visualized due to flexion positioning on all three views. No periostitis identified. The differential includes inflammatory and infectious etiologies. Although soft tissue swelling is most pronounced about the wrist and finger, the periarticular osteopenia extends throughout the entire wrist and hand. However, no focal dominant bony osteolysis or periostitis is identified to suggest focal osteomyelitis. In the appropriate clinical setting, chronic regional pain syndrome (reflex sympathetic dystrophy) can have a somewhat similar appearance. CT C-SPINE W/O CONTRAST Q311 CT SPINE showed 1.

He was seen by Neurosurgery, who recommended no intervention. There is no need for any brace. He has no activity restrictions. # Palmoplantar Keratoderma (PPK) due to Psoriasis Presented with many hyperkeratotic lesions, and per Derm consultants this was consistent with "PPK". Skin biopsy was done and was consistent with Psoriasis. He was started on Clobetasol and Urea creams. He will follow-up with Derm in ___. This diagnosis its with his history of inflammatory arthritis, except for that you would not expect his hand x-rays to show ___ osteopenia with psoriatic arthritis. Extensive workup was done to ensure no other etiology of his PPK, and was negative: HIV/syphilis (negative), crusted scabies (not seen on biopsy), Reiter's syndrome (Gonorrhea/Chlamydia negative), arsenic poisoning (pending but unlikely), and HPV (not seen on biopsy). It can be drug induced but he has no offending meds on his list (digoxin, venlafaxine, verapamil, hydroxyurea, quinacrine, practolol, and chemotherapeutics). Paraneoplastic PPK also a possibility, but no evidence of cancer on CT scans, and PSA not elevated. # Arthritis: Presented with multiple painful, swollen joints. L wrist, bilateral elbows are the main joints involved. Rheum was consulted. L Hand XR showed pronounced periarticular osteopenia, no chondrocalcinosis. R Wrist XR for comparison did not show any periarticular osteopenia. Rheumatoid factor, ESR, and CRP were all markedly elevated. Anti-CCP and ___ were negative, SPEP and Cryo's negative, uric acid low. The lack of a symmetrical small-joint arthritis pointed against RA, despite the +RF. Joint fluid aspiration was attempted, little could be obtained, but what was obtained showed no organisms or cells on gram stain. Given the skin biopsy results showing psoriasis, this was felt to be most consistent with Psoriatic Arthritis. However, he will need outpatient synovial biopsy of left wrist to confirm the diagnosis. From there, we will follow up with Rheum to discuss treatment options. # EtOH abuse: Prior to admission had been drinking significantly. He was in withdrawal on arrival to floor. He was treated with PRN Diazepam via the CIWA protocol. This was discontinued several days into the hospital stay once he was no longer scoring. Significant drinking history and took very little PO nutrition prior to admission. Thus he was starting on vitamin supplementation, and Nutrition was consulted. # Anemia Retic B12 and Folate WNL. Ferritin WNL but may be falsely high in setting of acute inflammation. LDH/Bili suggest against hemolysis. Likely related to nutritional reasons in addition to anemia of chronic disease. Started on PO Iron. Hgb/Hct were completely stable during stay, and he never needed a blood transfusion. # Thrombocytosis: PLT count rose every day this admission, from 100's on admit to 501 on discharge. Consider unmasking of EtOH marrow suppression, vs secondary to underlying autoimmune inflammatory state. # Pulm nodules: He told the team of a history of multiple (9) pulmonary nodules, up to 5mm, which were monitored by a pulmonologist with serial CT scans, and most recent scans showed increase in size. He was then lost to follow up. CT chest here confirmed these nodules. - Will need outpatient follow up of these # Fall: Most likely this happened in setting of EtOH/intoxication and general failure to thrive. Also, he has significant skin lesions on his feet which would make walking very difficult. Thus, he has multiple reasons for a mechanical fall, and a cardiac cause of fall seems unlikely. Telemetry was unremarkable other than sinus tachycardia and was discontinued after several days. ___ preliminary report showed no depression of EF or valve disease. # Fever: He had a fever three times during this hospital stay. No clear source of infection. His impressive skin lesions did not appear to be infected or cellulitic, and biopsy confirmed this. Inflammatory markers ESR and CRP both elevated but likely due to autoimmune. UA/Urine culture negative, CXR without PNA, blood cultures no growth, HIV/RPR/GC/Chlamydia negative, CT C/A/P without infectious source, TTE without vegetation. Most likely a noninfectious fever, due to autoimmune disease, possibly worsened initially by withdrawal from EtOH. # Tobacco abuse - nicotine patch # Hep B non-immune: Based on labs done as part of arthritis workup. Hep B non-immune, got dose ___ of vaccine ___. - dose ___ or later - dose ___ or later # Pain control: Diffuse pain, likely multifactorial in setting of withdrawal, joint swelling, skin lesions. - Tylenol Q8 PRN - Ibuprofen Q8 PRN - Oxycodone PRN for breakthrough =================== TRANSITIONAL ISSUES =================== - The Hand Surgery team at ___ will contact his Rehab facility to discuss timing and scheduling of an outpatient wrist biopsy.

Needs dose ___ on ___ or later. - Started nicotine patch for tobacco use - Needs continued encouragement and support for abstinence from alcohol - Started multivitamin, folate, and thiamine for nutritional support given history of alcohol use - Started daily Clobetasol (x2 weeks on, x2 weeks off), and daily Urea for Psoriasis. Has Derm follow-up in early ___ at ___ - Urine Arsenic level pending on discharge. It was sent as part of workup for his rash, but given biopsy showing psoriasis, now thought unlikely to be the etiology - On discharge, his Hgb was 7.9 and Hct 25.3. These were completely stable throughout stay and he required no blood transfusions.

Upon arrival, intravenous fluids/ pain medication were administered and radiographic imaging was obtained. An abdominal CT scan suggested 'extensive inflammatory changes about gastric banding catheter tubing spanning approximately 10 to 11 cm with small amount of free fluid in the right hemipelvis' without fluid collection. Given the findings, intravenous metronidazole and ciprofloxacin were administered and the patient was taken to the operating room where she underwent laparoscopic exploration with lysis of adhesions, infected band removal, washout, and upper endoscopy. There were no adverse events in the operating room; please see operative note for details. The patient was extubated and taken to the PACU for recovery. Once deemed stable, she was admitted to the general surgical ward for further observation. Neuro: The patient was alert and oriented throughout her hospitalization; pain was initially managed with intravenous hydromorphone and tylenol and then transitioned to oral oxycodone and tylenol once tolerating clears. CV: The patient was persistently tachycardic to 110-120s on POD1, which responded to fluid boluses and aggressive IV fluid resuscitation. She remained stable from a cardiovascular stanpoint throughout the remainder of her hospitalization; vital signs were routinely monitored. Pulmonary: The patient remained stable from a pulmonary standpoint; vital signs were routinely monitored. Good pulmonary toilet, early ambulation and incentive spirometry were encouraged throughout hospitalization. GI/GU/FEN: She was initially kept NPO until an upper GI study was performed on post-operative day 1, which was negative for a leak. Therefore, her diet was advanced to a clears, however on POD2, the patient developed nausea with associated dry heaves and mild abdominal distention. Her nausea resolved by POD3 and she began passing flatus with + BM on POD4; she was subsequently able to tolerate diet advancement. She continued to report bloating and fullness which was relieved with Reglan. Of note, the patient had one left-sided JP drain placed intraoperatively. On POD4, drain output changed in character from serous/serosanguionous to dark brown, returning to serous over the next day. A JP amylase was 3263 and total bilirubin was 1.3. Patient was clinically improving but this prompted a CT abdomen on POD 5 which failed to demonstrate a a leak or abcess. However, it did continue to show pelvic fluid with a small foreign body in the dependent fluid with a tubular structure, thought to be a small piece of the trocar sheath, and the decision was made not to intervene. JP drain was discontinued POD 7 before discharge. Also, immediately post-operatively, urine output remained marginal requiring mulitple fluid boluses. A foley catheter, placed on POD2 for urine output monitoring, was discontinued on POD 4 due to adequate urine output after aggressive fluid resuscitation. Subsequently, the patient was able to void adequate amounts of urine throughout the remainder of her hospitalization. ID: The patient's fever curves were closely watched for signs of infection, of which there were none. She was treated empirically with intravenous ciprofloxacin and metronidazole. This was changed to vancomycin once gram stain from intra-operative cultures showed gram + cocci in pairs/clusters. Cultures were consistent with strep anginosus; ID recommended starting ceftriaxone and resuming metronidazle for a total of 2 weeks. Patient received a PICC line on POD 5 in order to continue home abx therapy. WBC peaked at 15.6 on POD4, consistently normalizing throughout her hospitalization. Her abdominal drain was discontinued on POD 7 before discharge. HEME: The patient's blood counts were closely watched for signs of bleeding, of which there were none. Prophylaxis: The patient received subcutaneous heparin and ___ dyne boots were used during this stay; she was encouraged to get up and ambulate as early as possible. She also receieved a PPI thoughout her stay for GI prophylaxis. At the time of discharge, the patient was doing well, afebrile with stable vital signs.

Would consider initiation of iron supplementation at PCP or GI ___. # Lightheadedness: # Palpitations: # Fatigue: # Dysautonomia: # Chronic fatigue syndrome: Presents with acute on chronic lightheadedness, palpitations, and fatigue in setting of suspected underlying dysautonomia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Suspect that these underlying conditions were exacerbated by concurrent anemia, as above, but low suspicion that anemia is directly/causally related. CTA chest and CTA head/neck in ED without e/o PE, CVA, or carotid stenosis. AM cortisol was negative. EKG NSR without e/o ischemia and cardiac enzymes negative. Telemetry without arrhythmias. TTE deferred in absence of murmur. Initial orthostasis resolved with fluids and transfusion, so no clear indication for pharmacologic intervention for dysautonomia at present (was previously on florinef and mestinon; midodrine had previously been considered but not initiated). Her home propranol was held in hospital and on discharge, to be resumed by PCP as deemed appropriate. She may benefit from ___ with Dr. ___ at ___ for further evaluation and management of chronic fatigue syndrome and dysautonomia. # Nausea: Unclear etiology despite extensive evaluation over years. In setting of possible slow UGIB, likely warrants repeat EGD, which can be pursued as an outpatient (GI ___ previously arranged for ___ at ___). At request of patient's PCP, CT ___ w/cont obtained, which preliminarily showed no suspicious masses/lesions and no e/o obstruction. Preliminary read comments on mild dilation of CBD, but normal LFTs argue against biliary obstruction. Could consider MRCP vs ERCP for further w/u as outpatient. Patient was tolerating a regular diet at discharge. # Osteoarthritis: # S/p R TKA: R TKA appeared to be healing well without e/o hematoma. Home oxycodone PRN continued. She will ___ with her orthopedic surgeon as previously scheduled. # Prior concern for Sjogen's: # Positive ___: Previously evaluated by rheumatology in setting of positive ___ with titer 1:320 (___), initially thought to have Sjogren's, which was then deemed less likely on subsequent evaluations. Had been on Cellcept, Plaquenil, and IVIG, not recently. No arthralgias, myalgias, or sicca symptoms to suggest active autoimmune condition, including Sjogren's. Absence of morning stiffness largely exonerates PMR, and no HA/claudication to suggest GCA (and CRP/ESR WNL).

She was feeling better after discharge from ___ ED but then on ___ night she woke up with night sweats and had shaking of her body and again feeling of lightheadedness. She called her PCP in the morning who asked her to go to ED. Other associated symptoms include feeling nauseous but no vomiting. She did not have any chest pain, headaches, focal weakness, numbness/tingling, dysarthria . Of note she was seen by gastroentergolost for evalaution of esophageal spasm who had switched patient from her metopolol to diltiazem. Patient attibutes her current symptoms to long acting diltiazem. . In the ED, patient's vitals were normal. She had CT head which did not show any acute intracranial process. She was seen by neurology who were not concerned about seizure or stroke and recommended low dose lorazepam for tremors and cervical dystonia. They recommended outpatient neurology appointment in movement disorder clinic. . Currenltly patient reports her symptoms have signifncatly improved.

She reportedly presented to ___ few days prior to this admission and was ruled out for MI and found to have normal stress test. During this admission she was not orthostatic; EKG was not concerning for any ischemic changes or any arrythmias. She was once again ruled out for MI with three sets of negative cardiac enzymes. She had CT head which did not show any signs concerning for stroke. Patient was also seen by neurology who felt her symptoms were unlikely to be caused by seizures, strokes or any other serious neurological problem. It is likely that her symptoms were caused from taking long acting diltiazem. Her 120mg long acting diltiazem was decreased to 30mg TID short acting diltiazem with some improvement in her symptoms. She was evaluated by physical therapy on the day of discharge, who recommended patient home physical therapy however patient refused to have any physical therapy services at home. She was encouraged to follow up with primary care physician, neurologist and cardiologist for further care. . # Worsening Tremors/shakiness: Benign essential tremor is the most likely etiology. Her symptoms were controlled with metoprolol in the past however three weeks ago she was switched from metoprolol to diltiazem which may have precipitated her tremors in patient who has history of anxiety and PTSD. She did not have other findings to suggest ___. As above patient was evaluated by neurology who did not have any concern for seizures and recommended outpatient follow up in the movement disorder clinic. She will follow up with PCP and neurologist who should consider restarting patient back on metoprolol for better control of tremors. . # Transient shortness of breath: Patient reported one episode of transient shortness of breath prior to presentation. As above she was ruled out for MI. She did not have any arrythmia on EKG. There was no sign of volume overload and CXR did not show any pulmonary process. Her transient shortness of breath was likely secondary to her anxiety. She did not have any further episodes of shortness of breath during this admission. . #Night sweats: Only happened once. She was monitored and did not have any localizing signs or symptoms of infection. Certainly anxiety may have contributed. . #Torticollis/Cervical dystonia: This is a long standing diagnosis for her; the etiology is unclear. She had previously considered botox injections but decided against that option. She will follow up in outpatient movement disorder clinic for further care. . # Paroxysmal afib: Patient was switched to lower dose of short acting diltiazem, as patient's lightheadedness may have been caused by long acting diltiazem. She was continued on aspirin. She remained in sinus rhythm during this admission. . #Esophageal spasm: She was recently started on diltiazem by her gastroenterologist with some control of her symptoms.

In the ED, she was hemodynamically stable with O2 sats >92% on 3L nasal cannula. She had a CXR which showed a contained pneumothorax without tension. Given that she was comfortable, stable, and likely needed to go to the OR, she did not have a pigtail catheter placed at that time. However, overnight she became short of breath and was switched to a nonrebreather mask with pigtail catheter insertion as the pneumothorax was more prominent on CT. She remained stable throughout ___ and went to the OR the morning of ___ for a possible VATS blebectomy and mechanical pleurodesis. She received her morning dose of subcutaneous heparin, epidural placement, foley placement, and underwent sedation/intubation uneventfully.

CTA head/neck were performed, showing expected encephalomalacia secondary to his prior right hemispheric strokes but no acute ICH or cervical/intracranial vessel aneurysm/flow limiting stenosis/significant atherosclerotic disease. MRI showed no acute stroke on DWI/ADC; only expected evolution of prior stroke. The following morning, patient's subtle neuro deficits had resolved on exam, with the exception of mildly INCREASED sensation to pinprick on his left face. Given his symptom improvement and unchanged imaging, it was suspected that he had likely had a TIA. In the setting of his risk factors for recurrent stroke -- specifically the PFO and his hyperhomocysteinemia -- his ASA was increased from 81mg to 325mg daily. His folic acid/B6/B12 were continued. The patient was also strongly advised to never use anabolic steroids again (has h/o abuse in the past) as this too increases his coagulopathic state. Finally, the possibility of future percutaneous PFO closure was raised and discussed extensively with patient. Given that he is in a population not studied in the CLOSURE trial (hypercoagulable patients), and has increased risk of paradoxic embolism with Valsalva given his hobby of weightlifting, he could potentially be a good candidate for PFO closure.

In the emergency department, she was afebrile with tachycardia ranging from 112-161 with otherwise normal vital signs including a normal blood pressure. Her abdomen was non-tender and non-distended with no rebound or guarding. Speculum exam showed no evidence of blood in the vault and a closed cervix. There was no adnexal tenderness or fundal tenderness. Labs were done in the emergency room which were significant for a leukocytosis of 16.0 and a lactate of 2.9. Urine toxicology screen was negative. A TSH was drawn and was pending upon admission. Electrolytes were significant for a potassium of 2.4, sodium 127, a chloride of 77, bicarbonate of 27, creatinine of 1.0, and an anion gap of 25. A pelvic ultrasound was done which demonstrated no cardiac activity. Fetal biometry was not done but visually the fetus appeared to be in the ___ trimester. Bedside transabdominal ultrasound done once patient was admitted showed a fetus roughly 13 weeks in gestational age. In the emergency room, she was aggressively fluid resuscitated and received 1g ceftriaxone for presumed early sepsis. Her potassium was repleted and she was started on fluids with potassium supplementation. OB/GYN was consulted who recommended starting ampicillin and gentamicin for a presumed septic abortion in the setting of an undiagnosed IUFD of unclear length of time. An immediate dilation and evacuation was recommended. The patient was made NPO, started on antibiotics, and continued on fluids and admitted to the postpartum service for further management. MFM was consulted and the patient underwent an uncomplicated dilation and evacuation. Patient's blood type was B positive so Rhogam was not indicated. Her pain was controlled with oral pain medications of Tylenol and ibuprofen. She was treated with ampicillin, gentamicin, and clindamycin for 48 hours post-procedure.

Chlamydia culture returned as positive for which she was treated with a 1g does of PO Azithromycin. Thoughout her hospitalization she remained persistently tachycardia ranging from the 100-120s with episodes up to the 150s with ambulation despite aggressive fluid hydration and antibiotic treatment of her infection. Thyroid function tests were done which were significant for a TSH of 0.01 and an elevated free T4 of 3.6. A full panel of thyroid function tests were performed which were consistent with hyperthyroidism likely secondary to hyperemesis gravidarum secondary to severe nausea for the past month. On exam, she was euthyroid with no signs of Grave's disease including ophthalmopathy.

Acute Issues ======== #Cellulitis c/b SIRS (sepsis): Though patient presented with chest pain, bilateral lower extremity edema was noted in the emergency room, prompting her admission to the hospital. She received 6 doses of IV vancomycin during her stay with rapid resolution of her erythema to her baseline venous stasis pattern. Patient was febrile to 102.9 overnight into HD2, with tachycardia and relative hypotension as low as SBP 105. She had received one dose of IV vancomycin prior to the episode. She rapidly defervesced and her hemodynamics stabilized. Blood cultures drawn during this episode were negative at time of discharge. She was seen by neurosurgery for evaluation of possible abscess or osteomyelitis related to her spinal stimulator, wound dehiscence, or recent battery pack relocation. Though ESR and CRP were elevated, CT of thoracic and lumbar spine were benign and showed her stimulator to be in place. Though patient had a recent tooth extraction, the surgical site appeared clean and non-erythematous. No other potential cause of her SIRS could be identified. She had been afebrile for 48 hours on day of discharge. She is being discharged on a course of PO antibiotics for cellulitis. #MUSCULOSKELETAL CHEST PAIN: Cardiac workup was negative, and her symptoms and history were consistent with her recent fall as the inciting event. She was continued on her home pain regimen and her discomfort was well-controlled throughout admission. #DYSKINESIA: Patient was given ropinirole initially on admission as this was on her medication list provided to our team. On the morning of HD2 she was noted to have intermittent myoclonus in the hands and feet. On further questioning, she reported having stopped her ropinirole some time ago. The medication was discontinued and her myoclonus rapidly resolved.

[/INST] </s><s>Ms. ___ is a ___ yo woman with a history of hypertension who presented with cough and chest pain, found to be in atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular rate and acute HFrEF (LVEF 20%). Chest CT on ___ and then TEE on ___ showed a right atrial appendage thrombus and so cardioversion was deferred. Lower extremity ultrasound ___ showed right DVT, but CT torso with contrast with no signs of malignancy. Her atrial fibrillation and acute systolic heart failure were medically managed; patient discharged with PCP and cardiology follow up. # Atrial fibrillation with RVR: She has no known history of atrial fibrillation and presented with palpitations for the prior ~3 days. Unclear precipitant though could be secondary to recent URI and viral cardiomyopathy; history of negative coronary angiography in ___, so less likely to be ischemic. Of note, she complained of palpitations to her PCP in ___, though unclear whether these were undiagnosed atrial fibrillation vs. NSVT. She was initially given diltiazem in the ED, with plan for cardioversion. However, ___ demonstrated RA thrombus and so cardioversion was deferred given risk of pulmonary embolus. Additionally, amiodarone was deferred given 20% risk of chemical cardioversion. Therefore atrial fibrillation was managed medically with rate control and anticoagulation without attempt at rhythm control. She was initially difficult to rate control despite therapeutic digoxin and increasing doses of metoprolol tartrate, ultimately at 50 mg q6h. Due to persistent tachycardia in the 130s-160s, diltiazem was initiated on ___ and ultimately uptitrated to 30 mg q6h with good effect, keeping in mind her depressed LVEF, a relative contraindication to diltiazem or verapamil. At discharge, she continued to be in atrial fibrillation but was rate controlled well, with ventricular rates in the ___ at rest. For rate control she was discharged on digoxin 0.125 mg every other day and diltiazem ER 120mg daily. Her home metoprolol succinate dose was increased from 100mg to 200mg daily. She was anticoagulated with dabigatran 150 mg bid. She will follow up as outpatient with Dr. ___ potential outpatient TEE/cardioversion once anticoagulated x 4 weeks. # DVT and right atrial appendage thrombus: CT ___ and TEE ___ with 3x1.9cm RA thrombus, ___ ___ with right posterior tibial DVT. Given that the RA thrombus was nestled against the cardiac wall and not free-floating, and no signs of extension from the IVC, it was felt to be likely secondary to atrial fibrillation rather than an embolus from DVT, IVC, or elsewhere. The patient was initially started on rivaroxaban 20 mg daily but was subsequently switched to dabigatran 150 mg BID given potential for enhanced anticoagulation with BID dosing and higher potency. She tolerated this well with no issues. Diagnostically, these concurrent blood clots, with history of prior thrombophlebitis in ___, are concerning for a hypercoagulable state. The differential includes inherited/sporadic thrombophilia and malignancy. Antiphospholipid testing (cardiolipin Abs, beta-2-glycoprotein Abs, lupus anticoagulant) was negative. We deferred rest of thrombophilia workup to outpatient setting once clots resolve. In regards to malignancy, she had no evidence on CT chest-abdomen-pelvis, but could still ___ a cancer somewhere, such as the colon. She stated she is up to date on mammograms but not colon cancer screening or pap testing. Of note, she has had 10-pound weight loss since ___ and complains of decreased appetite. There is a family H/O gastric cancer in her mother. She was discharged on dabigtran 150 mg BID, a new medication. # Acute HFrEF. Previously normal LVEF (___), now with LVEF 20% on TTE ___, with elevated pro-BNP but normal troponin-T. The etiology was not entirely clear. Distribution of hypo-/akinesis somewhat consistent with Takotsubo; could be tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy from atrial fibrillation with RVR. Alternatively, viral cardiomyopathy (given recent URI) might have triggered new atrial fibrillation. Cardimyopathy likely non-ischemic given reportedly normal coronary angiography ___. She had mild volume overload on exam with shortness of breath and received intermittent diuresis with furosemide boluses with good effect for her diastolic heart failure. She was also started on captopril, later switched to lisinopril 5mg, for afterload reduction given reduced EF, though this was discontinued on day of discharge due to hyperkalemia to 5.6. She was discharged home on furosemide 60mg PO daily, a new medication, as well as diltiazem, digoxin, and metoprolol succinate as above. # Hyperkalemia: Patient had potassium of 5.6 on ___, repeat whole blood sample was normal at 4.2. Chemistry ___ again showed hyperkalemia to 5.5, repeat whole blood sample was 4.9. This is most likely secondary to ACE-inhibition and so lisinopril was discontinued. BUN/Cr within normal limits therefore not due to renal insufficiency, also no signs/symptoms of digoxin toxicity and on a very low dose so dig toxicity highly unlikely. Potassium should be monitored as an outpatient, please check this value at PCP follow up on ___. # Chest pain: On admission, patient presented with atypical, nonexertional pain, with chest wall tender to palpation, and was diagnosed with musculoskeletal pain. Troponin-T and CK-MB were negative in the ED and again on ___ and ___, and EKG showed no acute ST changes. History of coronary angiography in ___ with reportedly no CAD. Therefore pain felt to be most likely musculoskeletal, secondary to coughing given persistent URI. She was given acetaminophen and lidocaine patches as needed with good effect. If chest pain persists as outpatient, cardiology can consider outpatient stress testing. # E. coli uncomplicated UTI: She spiked a fever to 102.2 on ___ and had UA with WBCs and +nitrites and urine culture growing E coli. She was asymptomatic, with no dysuria or flank pain. However, given her persistent atrial fibrillation with RVR, with cardioversion not an option, it was felt to be reasonable to treat a potential infectious source to limit any ongoing triggers for her AF and decrease her cardiovascular demand. She was initially started on IV ceftriaxone and then switched to Bactrim given pan-sensitive E. coli for a total 3-day course and remained afebrile and asymptomatic. # Hypertension: Patient has history of hypertension, on amlodipine and metoprolol at home. Amlodipine was stopped because of diltiazem use for synergy in rate control. Captopril was added for LVSD. She was discharged home on metoprolol succinate 200 mg daily as above (up from 100 mg on admission), diltiazem and captopril.

[/INST] </s><s>Impression: The patient is an ___ year old man with history of dementia, sick sinus syd s/p PPM, moderate AS, prior MRSA pneumonia and C. diff colitis, with indwelling catheter, and a seizure disorder, presenting with sepsis secondary to likely pulmonary sources. He was initially admitted to the ICU for early goal-directed therapy for the sepsis, and was later transitioned to the hospital medicine service once the sepsis had been stabilized, and continuosly improved until discharge back to his long term nursing home. Acute Issues # Sepsis: Upon admission, the most likely source was the urinary tract given his chronic 3-way urinary catheter at rehab and his UA with >182 WBCs. Aspiration PNA may also have played a role given his RML/RLL infiltrates on CXR and his poor mental status with high risk for aspiration. There was no report of fevers or diarrhea at rehab. He was mildly hypotensive on arrival to the FICU with SBP in the ___ on no pressors. His BP's improved to the 100-120s after about 1L total of fluids, and he received empiric vanc/Zosyn for presumed urosepsis as well as MRSA covereage given the concern for aspiration PNA. Urine culture was negative, and therefore cause of symptoms presumed due to aspiration pneumonia. He will complete a course of augmentin at his facility for pneumonia. # Acute encephalopathy on admission Patient was reportedly more lethargic than usual, per direct discussion with the ___ staff. His baseline MS is ___ to self, thought to be from vascular dementia. The most likely cause for his AMS was sepsis from UTI, but may also have been ___ to starting lamotrigine recently, although it would not have been expected to resolve as quickly as was noted if due to medications. We held his seroquel and trazodone initially, but continued Celexa. He was resumed on home trazodone and seroquel at discharge. # Leukopenia: Unclear etiology, may be related to Keppra. He is currently being transitioned from Keppra to lamotrigine in an attempt to improve his leukopenia. His underlying infection/sepsis may be acutely lowering his WBC, although he has evidence of leukopenia prior to his presentation for sepsis. ANC at admission is 1300 and he is very mildly neutropenic, so concern for atypical infections was low. The transition off keppra was continued, after discussion with his neurologist, and the Keppra was decreased from 500 mg twice daily to 250/500. The recommended plan was to continue to decrease the keppra by 250 mg a week (ie: next dose would be 250/250) as the lamotrigine was increased by ___ each week until goal of 150 mg po bid. At this time, we increased his lamotrigine to 75/75mg doses. # Aortic stenosis: Valve area 0.8cm2 in ___. He appears somewhat volume depleted on exam, he has no edema or crackles on exam. His cardiac exam is consistent with a decreased S2, suggestive of critical AS. Repeat TTE showed progression of his aortic stenosis, to severe. As a result, he is likely to be very sensitive to low blood pressures. # Hematuria and CBI: Patient presented from rehab with a 3-way Foley and CBI. His rehab states that he has been on this for at least a year and plan to continue it indefinitely. He had not been seen by urology at ___ for ___ years. Has had negative cystoscopy and CT urogram with no clear cause for his hematuria. We stopped the CBI, with no hematuria, and changed his foley to a regular foley prior to discharge. CBI SHOULD NOT BE RESTARTED. If he develops hematuria after a foley catheter change, this should be monitored for evidence of obstruction. If he continues to have hematuria or obstruction, CBI can be started for ___ hours as needed until his urine clears again, at which point it should be stopped. He should follow up with urology as needed if this persists. # Goals of care: Upon admission, the ___ team spoke with the patient's brother, ___, who states that he is the health care proxy and makes decisions for the patient. He stated that the patient has expressed that he would like everything done for him, including resuscitation, intubation, pressors and invasive procedures. This should be re-addressed with the brother again given severe aortic stenosis, and his degree of cognitive dysfunction. </s>

[/INST] </s><s>Mr ___ was admitted to our institution given worsening abdominal pain and reported abdominal discharge from known phlegmonous collection in left lower quadrant. The fact that intraabdominal collections had not decreased in size, as well as the persistence of symptoms while on antibiotics was concerning. The interventional radiology team was consulted for possible aspiration of a small umbilical abscess/phlegmon additionally noted on imaging studies. Awaiting this procedure, patient was continued on meropenem and administered total parenteral nutrition as he had been receiving prior to admission. An ultrasound-guided aspiration of the anterior abdominal fluid collection was successfully done on hospitalization day #1. This yielded roughly 1 cc of greenish purulent material, sent to microbiology for analysis. Infectious Diseases was consulted for assistance in determining appropriate antibiotic regimen and duration in this patient. Differential for persistent collections included development of drug resistant organisms vs ongoing source of infection due to anatomical defects that would require surgical management. Given lack of response to meropenem therapy, decision was thus made to discontinue antibiotics and continue nutritional optimization for a planned surgical procedure in the coming months to attempt control of the source of infection. Upon improvement of symptoms, patient was deemed suitable to be discharged to home.

The patient's mother reported much of the history as the patient didn't recall the events. At around 4am today she came into his room because he was "clearing his throat repeatedly, like he was choking". This noise lasted around 3 seconds, and during it his eyes were partly open, then his eyes opened completely and he looked at his mom, then fell asleep and didn't wake back up when his mom shook his shoulder. She also noticed that he had deep breathing "almost like snoring" for the next ___ mins. She then tried to tap him lightly on the shoulder again and he opened his eyes, screamed loudly and then his arms and legs began to shake, he urinated on himself, bit his tongue "there was blood all over the pillow" and then suddenly stopped the shaking after ___ seconds and fell asleep. The patient's mother did not try to wake him after this episode. Then at 7:30am he sat up in bed suddenly and looked at his mother. When she said "are you okay?" he didn't answer. He fell asleep shortly after that. Then at around 8:30am she went to check on him by tapping on his shoulder and asking "are you okay?" and he responded "completely normally" so she was reassured that he was back to his baseline and she let him sleep again. He slept until 1:30pm, which is unusual for him unless he has had a seizure, so his mother went to wake him up and tell him that they were going to the ED so he could get checked out. He seemed at his baseline when she saw him at 1:30pm. However, when she came to get him at 2pm expecting to see him dressed and ready to go, he was still in bed undressed. She then noticed that he was sitting, leaning forwards and his arms and legs were trembling and his eyes were wide open. This lasted for ___ seconds and then stopped. She went to dress him and he "hardly noticed" which is unusual for him as he usually does it himself. She brought him to the ED and by the time they arrived he was "back to normal". However, the patient's mother did think that when she touched him at around 2:30pm he "felt warm, but not burning up". The ED initially tried to contact the patient's outpatient neurologist, who was being covered by another neurologist who recommended an infectious workup. The patient's WBC returned elevated at 12.9 with a neutrophilic predominance. His CXR initially returned with a ? of possible pneumonia, but on repeat CXR this was felt to be atelectasis. However, given his elevated WBC and no other identified infectious source, he was admitted to the neurology service for observation given that the WBC elevation was more likely to be from a seizure. Of note, the patient's mother reports that his usual seizure frequency is ___ seizures every ___ months and that today's was unusual both because of the number of events and because his last seizure episode was on ___ of this year (where he sat up quickly in bed and looked at her, then went back to sleep). Per Dr. ___ and the patient's mother he has had numerous types of seizure-like events ranging from sitting up quickly in bed, looking around and going back to sleep to generalized convulsions with tongue biting and urinary incontinence. There are many other events that she describes where he has trembling of both arms, or stiffening of his arms and legs and sometimes "he just looks out of it". She denies that the patient could have missed any of his meds, as unbeknownst to him she counts his pills every day to make she he is taking them. She also doesn't think he has had any cold symptoms, fevers or chills (except maybe at 2:30pm today as above), nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache or any other infectious symptoms recently. Radiology showed Low lung volumes limit assessment of the lung bases. Streaky opacities in the lung bases could reflect atelectasis but infection, particularly of the right lung base, cannot be excluded. Consider repeat radiographs with improved inspiratory effort for better assessment of the lung bases. Radiology showed Slightly improved aeration of the lung bases with mild bibasilar atelectasis.

Initially, her chest pain and mild ST elevations were concerning for STEMI, so she was taken to the cath lab. However, her pain and ECG changes resolved upon arrival to the cath lab, so she was admitted to the Medical Wards for further management of her anemia (Hgb 6.5 on admission) and for goals of care discussion. She was transfused 1 unit pRBC, with appropriate rise in her Hb, with improvement in her weakness and dyspnea on exertion. She was evaluated by cardiology, who felt that her symptoms were not concerning for ACS. Given her Stage 4 lung cancer, she is not surgical candidate for aortic valve repair. Team had an extensive goals of care conversation on ___ with patient and her son ___ was made Health Care Proxy & patient completed a MOLST form, and was made DNR/DNI. She will go home with home hospice. # CHEST PAIN: Initially, ST elevations in V1-V4 were concerning for STEMI, so patient was taken to the cath lab upon arrival to ED. However, her chest pain and ischemic changes on ECG completely resolved, so she was admitted to the medical service. Repeat ECG on floor showed 2mm ST elevated in V2 and 1mm ST elevation in V1. Pt received ASA 325 mg prior to admission and 81 mg PO x 1 upon arrival to the floor. She had originally been evaluated for possible cardiac catherization, however, per the cardiology fellow Dr. ___ declined all intervention. This decline of intervention seems consistent with prior desires as indicated in Atrius notes. Documentation of consent for cardiac cath was signed by the patient, and the patient endorsed that she "wanted everything done". Given resolution of her symptoms, she was admitted to medicine for further management. Given her downtrending troponins and normal ECHO, chest pain was thought to be demand ischemia, not ACS. She was monitored on telemetry and given ASA 81mg daily. Held beta blocker and heparin given severe anemia. Cardiology consulted, appreciate their recs. Per cardiology, patient is not a candidate for valve replacement. # ANEMIA: Patient has chronic anemia, with most recent Hgb 9.3 in ___. On admission, Hgb was 6.6. Patient denied signs and symptoms of bleeding. Per Atrius records, she has a history of a gastric ulcer and endorsed GERD symptoms. Also has a history of AVM per Atrius records. Given history of aortic stenosis, checked for active hemolysis, but hemolysis labs were normal. Hemoglobin remained stable after transfusion, and is 7.9 on discharge. # STAGE 4 LUNG CANCER: Patient has a 60-pack year smoking history, and known stage-4 lung carcinoma. The malignancy is non-operable, and the patient does not want chemotherapy or radiation. She is not on active treatment and does not require oxygen at home. Oxygen saturation was monitored, and remained stable throughout hospitalization. Goals of care were discussed, as below. # AORTIC STENOSIS: Patient has known AS prior to admission, with mean gradient 40 in ___. Per outside records, she had previously declined intervention; confirmed with cardiology that she declined intervention. Admission ECHO showed severe aortic valve stenosis (valve area <1.0cm2). Cardiology evaluated, appreciate their recs. Per cardiology, given the patient's stage 4 lung carcinoma and multiple other comorbidities, she would not be a candidate for valve replacement. # GOALS OF CARE: Prior to this admission, patient had multiple discussions with PCP (latest ___ to discuss goals of care with her metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Per Atrius notes, " Adenocarcinoma, lung, unspecified laterality: Inoperable and she refused chemotherapy...She refused discussion regarding palliative care or hospice care and insisted on being full code...

Radiology showed No evidence of acute intracranial hemorrhage or obvious mass effect. Please note that a non-contrast head CT is not sensitive for the detection of intracranial masses. If there is continued clinical concern and need for evaluation of parenchymal masses noted on the prior MRI, then a repeat MRI of the brain can be obtained with and without contrast, if not contra-indicated . The right lateral ventricle is slightly more concave-? related to orientation - attention on f/u. The patient was diagnosed with PNEUMONIA,ORGANISM UNSPECIFIED, SEC MAL NEO BRAIN/SPINE, SECONDARY MALIG NEO LUNG. At the time of discharge, the patient had Primary Diagnosis: Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer Secondary Diagnosis: Hypertension. 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>The patient is a ___ yo with a PMHx of metastatic RCC which has failed chemotherapy (with Sutent, Temsirolimus, and Bevacizumab) who presents with altered mental status and fever after going home ___ on hospice. . # Fever: Likely secondary to leptomeningeal disease and extent of malignancy. Given concern for post-obstructive pneumonia given CXR, we initially covered for HCAP. Lumbar puncture was deferred given his prior antibiotic treatment in the ED and low likelihood of meningitis given the rapid improvement in mental status and lack of meningeal signs. Vancomycin and ceftriaxone were initiated for a 7 day course. Urine cultures were no growth, and blood cultures demonstrated no growth during his stay, but final results were pending at the time of discharge. He had no further episodes of fever during his stay. He was discharged on Levofloxacin for oral coverage of possible pneumonia since IV antibiotics were not available on hospice. . # Encephalopathy: Differential diagnosis on arrival included cerebral edema vs leptomeningeal spread of disease vs sepsis vs overuse of narcotics. Cerebral edema was not visualized on imaging. Upon admission, narcotics were reduced from Oxycontin 40 mg TID to 30 mg BID. By day two of admission, his mental status had greatly improved. It is likely that the reduction of Oxycontin resulted in the improvement in mental status. Antibiotic coverage with Levofloxacin was continued on discharge since infection could not be completely ruled out. He was discharged on the reduced dose of Oxycontin with Oxycodone for breakthrough pain. . # Pain Control: He has had difficulty with pain control and adjustment of his narcotics doses for adequate relief without over narcotization. His Oxycontin likely contributed to his altered mental status and lethargy on admission. He was discharged on the reduced dose of Oxycontin 30 mg PO BID with Oxycodone 10 mg PO Q4H for breakthrough pain. He was also started on standing doses of Ibuprofen 400 mg PO Q6H and Acetaminophen 1000 mg PO Q8H. The addition of these non-narcotic pain medications appeared to have good effect with a reduced need for narcotics. His pain was well controlled without sedation or confusion during his stay, and he was discharged on this new regimen. He will likely neec close followup of his pain control regimen after discharge with care to avoid over escalation of his narcotics doses. . # Metastatic RCC: He is status post failure of two regimens, and per primary oncologist no further anti-neoplastic care is indicated. He recently went home on hospice on ___. Palliative care was consulted on admission for further teaching about the role of hospice and reevaluation for hospice services. He was discharged home with the same hospice service. . # Chronic diastolic CHF: He did not appear fluid overloaded on exam. His outpatient dose of Furosemide 20 mg PO daily was continued. . # Appetite / Nutrition: Patient was continued on Megestrol Acetate 400 mg PO BID and Ensure supplements with meals. . # DVT Prophylaxis: Heparin 5000 units SC TID .</s>
