found to have bilateral pulmonary embolism. The patient was
admitted to the Post Partum floor for therapeutic
anticoagulation and pain control, as well as monitoring of her
vaginal bleeding.
*) Pulmonary embolus:
The patient remained hemodynamically stable, with normal 02 sats
on RA, and no evidence of heart strain on a chest CT. Thus,
there was no indication for thrombolytic therapy. On HD1, a
heparin gtt was started per protocol. Hematology was consulted
and the patient was transitioned to therapeutic lovenox and
coumadin. The patient was started on coumadin on hospital day 3.
She continued this until discharge, although coumadin was held
on hospital 5. Plan for going forward was to continue on lovenox
95mg twice daily with bridge to warfarin at starting dose 5mg
qd, goal INR ___. Per hematology, patient should be maintained
on anticoagulation for 3 months with outpatient follow up in
___ clinic. Patient will be followed by ___ initially, as
this is location of primary care.

<s>[INST] <<SYS>> Act as a health expert <</SYS>> create brief hospital course of the following text: Reason for Consult: cluster of seizures
HPI: The pt is a ___ F with a history of CP, refarcatory
epilepsy and severe cognitive disability, who was transferred to
___ ED after about ___ seizures this morning.
Shje had just been discharged from ___
yesterday,
where she had been treated for one week for ESBL UTI (7d of
ertapenem), and aspiration PNA. Apparently her WBC on dishcarge
was 4.2, her last PHT level there 13.
She then had one seizure yesterday and a slightly elevated
temperature compared to her baseline (98.4), received Diastat
and
was fine. Starting at 7AM this morning, she had a cluster of 5
seizures at her home, each lasting between ___, consisting
of
a head version to the L, R arm flexion, and some twitching of
her
mouth. She receive 10mg Diastat, and EMS was called after she
had
another seizure after Diastat. She received another 4mg of
ativan
at the OSH ED, and was transferred here after she kept
intermittently seizing. On the way to ___ she had 3 more
seizures and received 5mg of diazepam.
Here, her labs showed a WBC of 19 with 90% neutrophils, as well
as a PHT level of 2.2. Her UA was clean, her CXR showed a
retrocardiac infiltrate c/w old or new aspiration PNa.
According to her facility, she did no miss any doses, and had no
vomiting or diarrhea. She is nonverbal with minimal interaction
and no purposeful hand or leg movements at baseline, and
entirely
fed per tube.
She rarely seizes at baseline, usually in the context of
infections. She is currently treated with Keppra, Trileptal,
Neurontin, Klonopin, Dilantin and Banzel. Her most recent
medication change was a change from Dilantin 275mg QHS to
100-175mg. Radiology showed Limited exam with low lung volumes causing crowding of the bronchovascular
structures. Retrocardiac opacity could reflect aspiration or pneumonia. Radiology showed Parenchymal opacities in both lower lobes and in the right upper
lobe, consistent with aspiration pneumonia. Limited evaluation of the lung
parenchyma, no pleural effusions. The airways are patent. Calcified
granuloma in the right upper lobe. Radiology showed 1. Interval placement of a right subclavian PICC line which has its tip
likely within the proximal right atrium. A pullback of approximately 2 cm
would position the tip in the distal SVC. Rods overlie the visualized
thoracolumbar spine. Lungs remain low in volume with persistent patchy
airspace opacities and reticulonodular interstitial abnormality which appears
to be worsening. These findings may reflect worsening interstitial edema,
though pneumonia should also be considered. Clinical correlation is advised.
Overall cardiac and mediastinal contours are likely stable given differences
in patient rotation and positioning. No large pneumothorax is seen, although
the sensitivity to detect a pneumothorax is diminished given supine technique.
Results of this examination were conveyed to ___, the ___ line nurse on
___ at 10:16 a.m. by phone at the time of discovery. The patient was diagnosed with OTHER FORMS OF EPILEPSY AND RECURRENT SEIZURES, WITHOUT MENTION OF INTRACTABLE EPILEPSY, PNEUMONIA,ORGANISM UNSPECIFIED, CONGENITAL QUADRIPLEGIA. At the time of discharge, the patient had Seizure. 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. ___ was admitted to the neurology ICU for altered
mental status after having multiple generalized seizures. These
seizures were likely secondary both to the recent use of a penum
antibiotic in treating an ESBL UTI, as well as a subtherpeutic
phenytoin level of 2.2.
#NEURO - SEIZURES
On admission, she was loaded with IV fosphenytoin, and her PO
BID dose was increased from 125/100 to 175/100. Her mental
status quickly returned to baseline and she was transferred to
the floor on ___. By the day of discharge, her dilantin level
was therapeutic at 13.5. She was monitored on EEG, and continued
to have generalized slowing with occasional spikes which is
likely her baseline. On the day of discharge, she was at her
baseline mental status. Trileptal and Keppra levels are pending.
#ID
Her WBC count was 19 on admission, for which she was started on
vancomycin and zosyn, however WBC downtrended to 6 the next day
and was likely a result of her seizure, antibiotics were
discontinued the following day. She was afebrile. CXR was
notable for a retrocardiac opacity from a recent pneumonia which
had already been completely treated. Also, as above, she had
recently been completely treated for a UTI. Urine culture was no
growth. On ___, she spiked a fever and her white count
uptrended, CXR showed bibasilar opacities and CT thorax showed
bilateral consolidations suggestive of aspiration pneumonia. She
was started again on vancomycin and zosyn to treat hospital
acquired/aspiration pneumonia. PICC was placed and she is being
discharged with a 14 day total course.
She was discharged to a rehab facility for continued IV
antibiotics, she will require less than 30 days at rehab.
INACTIVE ISSUES
She was continued on all of her home medications as previously
prescribed, these are detailed in the attached medicatin list.
OUTSTANDING ISSUES
- Check dilantin trough level morning of ___ and adjust dosing
if needed
- Continue vancomycin and zosyn until ___ (14 day course for
treatment of hospital acquired/aspiration pneumonia)
- Check vancomycin level after 4th dose and adjust dose as
needed.

who presents with lightheadedness and multiple neurologic
complaints of unclear etiology.
#Slurred speech:
The patient presented with slurred speech and possible word
finding difficulty on day of admission following sitting up
during an outpatient MRI brain (being obtained for research
purposes). There was initial concern for an acute stroke given
this focal finding and a code stroke was called. NCHCT was
negative, as was CTA of the head and neck. He received 3 liters
of IV fluid and his speech pattern returned to baseline (with
baseline stutter). Neurology felt that given his negative
imaging and lack of continued focal deficits, primary neurologic
cause was unlikely, and they did not recommend more advanced
head imaging. Per neurology recommendations, he was started on
ASA 81mg daily for stroke prevention, although suspicion for TIA
was low. No clear infectious process uncovered, negative tox
screen, no events on tele. Ultimately his symptoms were
attributed to orthostasis as below.
#Lightheadedness
#Vertigo
Describes acute onset of lightheadedness with standing
associated with sitting up and standing. As above, no focal
deficits, and prodrome with sitting up prior to onset of
symptoms indicative of vasovagal vs. orthostatic hypotension
(although no documented orthostasis in house). The patient was
given IV fluids with improvement in symptoms, and was evaluated
by physical therapy who cleared him for discharge home. He was
normotensive while inpatient, and his home losartan/HCTZ was
held on discharge pending PCP ___. Given that his labs and
presentation were consistent with some degree of intravascular
volume depletion, would continue to hold his HCTZ. If he is
hypertensive at his follow up apt, would start by adding back
his Losartan.
# Atypical chest pain
Presenting with one day of left-sided chest pain. EKG without
ischemia and troponin negative x 2, making ACS unlikely. CXR
negative for pulmonary source, such as pneumonia. PE unlikely
given lack of tachycardia, SOB, or hypoxemia. Chest pain
resolved without intervention and did not recur.

presents with fevers, cough, low sats. He also endorsed some
pain with urination. Radiology showed Dense atelectasis of the left lung base, less likely pneumonia. Radiology showed No evidence of pneumonia. Left lower lobe pleural density likely represents
thickened pleura and/or effusion. Radiology showed Normal wall-to-wall color flow and augmentation of the examined
left lower extremity veins. Compression could not be assessed due to patient
body habitus and intolerance. No definite evidence of deep venous thrombosis

obesity hypoventilation syndrome c/b pulmonary hypertension and
right sided congestive heart failure presenting with sepsis,
including fevers, hypoxia/elevated respiratory rate, and

accountable to primarily leg cellulitis, as well as likely
pneumonia.
ACTIVE ISSUES BY PROBLEM:
# Leg cellulitis: noted to have increase erythema, warmth, and
swelling of left lower extremity suspicious for
cellulitis/erysipelas. Given the clinical severity, surgery was
called for concern of necrotizing fascitis and clindamycin was
added. Surgery felt his exam was not consistent with
necrotizing fasciitis. LENIs were negative for DVT or any
drainable collection. ID was consulted and felt his symptoms to
be most consistent with cellulitis. Slowly, the infection
regressed on vancomycin and clindamycin. He was discharged on a
regimen of linezolid ___ BID to be continued for another 8
days for a 14 day course.
# Respiratory distress/Pneumonia: Has history of recurrent
pneumonia with CXR at ___ reportedly consistent with R-sided
infiltrate prior to transfer here. Given tenous clinical status
on presentation, he was initially admitted to the MICU and
treated empirically for HCAP. On transfer to the unit, he was
tachycardic, sat 94% on 3 L, but he was very somnolent. ABGs
showed CO2 retention and the patient was placed on BiPAP. While
in the ICU, he was started on Vancomycin, levofloxacin and

The patient presented with 3 months of worsening back pain
despite uptitration of his narcotic pain medications at home.
The pain has been attributed to his retroperitoneal metastatic
disease. Recent MRI was reassuring against any evidence of cord
compression. Neuro exam is also reassuring with no weakness or
focal findings noted. Palliative care was consulted and
patient's regimen titrated to fentanyl patch 75 mcg and q3h PRN
10 mg PO oxycodone. His pain was adequately controlled on t his
regimen and he showed no signs of adverse CNS effects of
narcotics. However he did not have a bowel movement during the
admission and so received an aggressive home bowel regimen. He
was given careful narcotic safety instructions and a narcan
prescription. He did not have follow-up scheduled at the time of
discharge, but he plans to call and set this up tomorrow. He
will discuss amongst his outpatient providers who will be

#Stroke
NIHSS in ED 7 for left facial and left hemiparesis. CT head
without acute process. CTA head and neck showed some
atherosclerotic disease with adequate flow-trough. He was given
tPA at 10:58 am with initial improvement of his NIHSS to 1 (left
nasolabial fold flattening). Post-tPA events notable for
transient episode of hypotension that resolved with IVF. NIHSS
at that time worsened to 4 with improvement s/p hydration.
Within 24 hrs, his post-tPA NIHSS improved to 2 (left facial,
left arm drift). MRI brain with subtle foci of right frontal
foci of diffusion restriction corresponding to precentral gyrus
with ADC correlate suggestive of acute infarct/embolus with
lysis from tPA. Transthoracic echo demonstrated large atrial
volume, increasing risk of arrhythmia and an EF of 55% with no
clots visualized. He was monitored on telemetry, but no atrial
fibrillation was seen while inpatient. He will need a cardiac
event monitor while in rehab or on discharge from rehab to look
for occult atrial fibrillation. ___ was continued on aspirin
81mg daily for stroke prevention. His stroke risk factors were
LDL 41, TSH 1.7, and hemoglobin a1c 5.7. There was no clear
cause of his stroke, so occult atrial fibrillation causing a
cardioembolic stroke was thought to be the most likely culprit.
If atrial fibrillation is found, either a DOAC such as apixiban
or Coumadin should be initiated.
#HTN/HLD
Blood pressure medications were held on admission to allow for
permissive hypertension to SBP 180. Blood pressure medications
were slowly reintroduced, with adequate blood pressure control
(goal SBP <160) achieved on no antihypertensives. On discharge,
we restarted metoprolol XL 12.5mg (half his home dose) and
continued to hold losartan. These medications can be titrated up
as needed at rehab to achieve SBP <160. His home atorvastatin
was continued, as his cholesterol is under good control on
current regimen.
#PNA
On admission, he was also found to have a right middle lobe
pneumonia, for which he was treated with ceftriaxone (7 days)
and azithromycin (5 days), and we covered for potential MRSA
with vancomycin. MRSA swab was negative on ___, and vancomycin
was discontinued. His white blood count was notable for
leukocytosis of 37 and he was significantly dehydrated. We
rehydrated him and consulted nutrition for re-nourishment
recommendations, as he was frail on admission. He also had stage
II pressure ulcer on his coccyx, for which a wound consult was
placed. Social work was also consulted to help evaluate and
supplement home care. Physical therapy recommended rehab on
discharge, so patient was sent to rehab on ___.
#CLL
Patient was noted to have abnormal blood counts, which we
discussed with hematology. There was concern for CLL, for which
they recommended workup as an outpatient. We ordered a d-dimer,
which was elevated to 8520. Serum viscosity was normal. They
also recommended sending flow cytometry and cytogenetics, as
well as hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV, which we sent prior
to discharge. One of the CT scans of his abdomen was read as
lymph nodes concerning for lymphoma. We discussed with
hematology, who felt the lymph nodes were more likely reactive
in the setting of a small bowel obstruction. They recommended
outpatient follow up, which we scheduled for after discharge.
#SBO
On ___ AM, patient vomited bilious fluids. KUB showed acute
small bowel obstruction. Patient was made NPO. ACS was
consulted, and colorectal surgery saw patient on ___,
recommended NG tube to suction, and CT abdomen with PO contrast
to look for etiology of obstruction. CT showed a small bowel
obstruction. Surgery reduced a hernia. Patient remained NPO for
the weekend, and vomiting resolved. Surgery did not feel that
the SBO was due to the patient's hernia, and GI did not feel
that the SBO was due to Crohn's flare. The CT scan had lymph
nodes concerning for lymphoma, so we consulted ___ for biopsy. ___
recommended repeating the CT abdomen, which showed a resolved
small bowel obstruction and thickening of the small bowel. There
were lymph nodes that were not amenable to biopsy. Hematology
and ___ both felt lymph nodes were more likely reactive, so we
did not further pursue biopsy. CT scan may need to be repeated
as an outpatient with hematology at follow up to look for change
in lymph nodes. We spoke with GI, who said that he should resume
his home GI medications on discharge. They are not sure if this
is a Crohn's flare or not, but the biopsy will give us the
answer. They deferred starting steroids, as they possibility of
lymphoma was present and this would change his treatment course.
The morning after his colonoscopy, patient had a small amount of
diarrhea on the bed. Per report, it was dark, and concerning for
blood. His next BM witnessed by medical team was diarrhea that
was bilious in color, no bright red blood or melena. We repeated
a CBC, which was stable. We discussed with GI, who said there
could be a small amount of blood that would be expected after
biopsy of the terminal ileum. Since his CBC was stable, there
was no further workup needed, and patient was scheduled to
follow up with GI.

subsequently removed after confirming absence of air leak and
resolution of PTX. Post pull film also failed to show recurrent
PTX and patient was discharged home on ___ ___. He contacted
Thoracic Surgery Clinic this AM with concerns for sensation of
air leaking from his prior CT site. He was instructed to return
to clinic with repeat CXR showing recurrent L PTX and mild R
mediastinal shifting. He reports some increased fatigue/DOE on
baseline home O2 requirement of 2L NC, but has otherwise
remained
hemodynamically stable and denies significant SOB/CP,
fevers/chills, worsening cough. CHEST (PA AND LAT) showed 1. Compared to ___, new moderate-sized left pneumothorax with
rightward shift of the trachea and mediastinum suggesting a degree of tension.
2. Interval increase in left-sided subcutaneous gas, which now extends to the
left neck.
NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed with ___, M.D. by ___,
M.D. on the telephone on ___ at 10:05 am, 2 minutes after discovery of
the findings. Radiology showed Interval placement of left-sided chest tube. Left pneumothorax has decreased
in size and is now barely visible. CHEST RADIOGRAPH showed 1. Low lung volumes with re-demonstration of extensive subcutaneous emphysema
overlying the left chest wall and neck. No appreciable pleural effusion. New
pneumomediastinum is probably not clinically significant.
2. Previously described small left pneumothorax is not well seen on today's
exam.
3. Improving mild pulmonary edema. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the earlier study of this date and the study of 221, there
again is a left chest tube in place with small residual pneumothorax an
extensive gas along the left chest wall extending into the neck. Some
residual pneumomediastinum is seen in the upper region.
Slightly improved lung volumes with little change in the appearance of the
heart and lungs except for poor definition of the left hemidiaphragm,
suggesting atelectatic changes and pleural fluid in this region. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, the left chest tube remains in
place and there is no evidence of pneumothorax. Extensive subcutaneous gas is
again seen along the left lateral chest wall extending into the neck.
Pneumomediastinum is clearing.
Little overall change in the appearance of the heart and lungs except for some
mild increased opacification at the left base. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Improvement since prior. No pneumothorax. The patient was diagnosed with Other pneumothorax. The patient was treated with ___: s/p left chest tube placement (___) and chemical
pleurodesis (talc). At the time of discharge, the patient had recurrent spontaneous left pneumothorax

The patient expressed readiness for discharge. [/INST] </s><s>Mr. ___ was evaluated in the Thoracic Clinic and a chest xray
demonstrated a recurrent left pneumothorax. He was sent to the
Emergency Room for urgent placement of a chest tube. He
tolerated the procedure well and initially had a large air leak.
A subsequent chest xray confirmed placement of the tube at the
left apex and a tiny residual apical pneumothorax. he was
transferred to the Surgical floor for further management.
Later that day he underwent talc pleurodesis with 4 Grams of
sterile talc. Towards the end of the procedure he had some
burning pain which was relieved with IV Dilaudid. The tube was
placed above the level of his heart for 2 hours post pleurodesis
and he repositioned himself frequently to coat the lung then the
tube was placed on -20 cm suction for 48 hours. About 6 hours
later he developed sinus tachycardia to 130 and desaturated to
the low 80's eventually requiring a non rebreather.
He was transferred to the SICU for further management of what
seemed to be talc related SIRS. He was never intubated but
required high flow O2 to maintain sats > 88%. His chest xray
showed no pneumothorax and his pain was controlled with oral
Dilaudid. He spent time in ICU for weaning off of high flow
oxygen and his chest tube was eventually removed on ___.
His post pull film showed no evidence of PTX and he remained
hemodynamically stable without need for repeat CT placement.
He was evaluated by the Pulmonary service and recommendations
were made for reducing his Prednisone to 10 mg daily from 20 mg
daily during this acute phase to allow for appropriate
inflammation and ensure adequate pleurodesis. Given that his
surgical problems had resolved (no recurrence of PTX following
pleurodesis), the deicision was made to transfer patient to
Medicine Service for continued O2 wean and medical management of
his known ILD.
On medicine service, O2 requirement rapidly decreased without
intervention. On DC, satting in low ___ on 2L O2, which is home
O2 requirement. Course also complicated by urinary retention

Klebsiella, both sensitive to cefepime. Patient remained febrile
until ___ and remained on IV antibx until transitioned to PO on
day of discharge. Loopogram ___ showed free reflux of contrast
to the right kidney, and some reflux through the ureter of left
kidney, but abruptly stopped before reaching the left renal
collecting system. Urology then asked for a CT abd/pelvis to
further evaluate this issue. Abd/pelvis CT showed no

# Goals of care: After extended hospital stay with failure to
liberate patient from ventilator, persistant altered mental
status, and worsening renal function unresponsive to albumin
challenge, the decision was made with her brother to transfer
her care to ___ which was closer to her home. This was done
so that family members could visit the patient due to her poor
and grave prognosis. She was also made Do Not Resuscitate. She
remained intubated. After family visits, there will have to be
continued decisions regarding management of her medical
co-morbidities and whether or not to pursue comfort measures
only.
# Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure: Multifactorial in setting of
hepatic hydrothorax with possible secondary infection, heart
failure, or portopulmonary/hepatopulmonary syndrome. Patient
was intubated prior to arrival, was started on broad-spectrum
antibiotic coverage (vancomycin/meropenem/levofloxacin), was
diuresed, and underwent thoracentesis (diagnostic but with
additional large amount of fluid remova). Patient remained
intubated through discharge due to poor mental status precluding
liberation from ventilator.
# Septic Shock from Urinary Source: Patient presented with T103

# Altered Mental Status: Remained minimally responsive
throughout hospitalization despite minimal sedation. Lactulose
was trialed without improvement in her mental status. She was
discharged without sedation. NCHCT was negative for acute
intracranial process. EEG was not read at time of discharge -
this was because of the desire to transfer Mrs. ___ closer to
home.

began having terrible abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and
profuse watery diarrhea. Patient reports that pain is mostly
left-sided and she has had frequent non-bloody, non-bilious
emesis thoughout the afternoon as well as non-bloody,
non-melanotic diarrhea. She has not had fevers, chills, has not
traveled and has no sick contacts.
In the ED, initial VS were: 97.5 89 146/75 16 97%. CT abdomen
was peformed showing evidence of colitis but without evidence of
obstruction. ED evaluation not concerning for mesenteric
ischemia or ischemic colitis and given CT abdominal findings not
showing obstruction surgery was not consulted. Lactate was
normal so no concern for end organ damage. She received 2L NS,

rhinorrhea, congestion, sore throat, cough, shortness of breath,
chest pain, ___, melena, hematochezia, dysuria, hematuria. Radiology showed 1. Mild bowel wall thickening and mucosal enhancement with surrounding
inflammatory change of the sigmoid colon and to a lesser degree the descending
colon tapering to the level of the splenic flexure, consistent with colitis
with etiologies including infectious, inflammatory or ischemic. Of note, the
ostia of the celiac and superior mesenteric and inferior mesenteric arteries
do not appear to have critical stenosis and mesenteric vessels are overall
patent.
2. Moderate stable intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary ductal dilatation,
not significantly changed.
3. Prominent intermittent fluid filled loops of small bowel with intervening
areas of collapse without secondary evidence of obstruction; however, if
abdominal symptoms worsen, low threshold to repeat scan to assess for
developing small bowel obstruction. The patient was diagnosed with NONINF GASTROENTERIT NEC. The patient was given written instructions concerning precautionary instructions and the appropriate follow-up care. All questions were answered prior to discharge.

# C diff infection: likely causing abdominal pain, nausea,
diarrhea. The patient has a prior h/o C diff infection, and per
daughter she was told she had to take oral Vancomycin for that
infection. Since this represents a recurrent infection and the
patient required Vancomyin during last infection, we decided to
pursue PO vanc as treatment. GI also saw the patient and
recommends probiotics as well upon discharge. The patient was
able to tolerate a BRAT diet upon discharge, and pain was
greatly improved since admission. First day of oral Vancomycin
therapy was ___.
- Oral Vancomicin 125 mg Q6 for 2 weeks, followed by a taper (1
weeks of BID the 1 week QD). Thus, the patient will get a total
of 4 weeks of therapy including the taper. First day of therapy
was ___.
- Supplement with probiotics: Florastor (Take two sachets daily
during treatment with Vancomycin and once daily thereafter)
# Colitis: Recent CTA scan did not show evidence of ischemia,
lactate not elevated. IV fluids were continued in the hospital
to prevent ischemia from developing in the setting of
dehydration. HCTZ was held. The patient was also found to have
guiac positive stool. Patient was diagnosed with iron
deficiency. Because of the prior noted CT findings of extensive
colitis in ___ in ABSENCE of C.diff or mesenteric stenosis,
GI was consulted. They recommended outpatient follow up once
acute C diff infection resolved, and further discussion of the
need for colonoscopy vs flex sigmoidoscopy. The patient was also
started on iron supplimentation.

of smoking and no personal hx of kidney stones, also with
pulmonary nodules on CT c-spine concerning for mets. Pt also
requiring lido patches to L lumbar area possibly MSK in origin
though this is a dx of exclusion at this time given more
worrisome GU pathology. Urology was consulted who noted that
both kidneys were draining contrast appropriately on CT. They
were initially concerned for neurogenic bladder as the cause,
however the patient had very low post-void residuals. She was
treated with ceftriaxone in the interim given her clinical signs
of pyelonephritis. Her creatinine remained at 0.5 during her
admission, without evidence of kidney disfunction. The patient's
pain was controlled with tylenol. Cx results from patient's
initial diagnosis of urinary tract infection revealed e.coli
sensitive to bactrim, fluoroquinolones, and cephalosporins.
Given that the patient was also on propafenone, it was decided
to complete her course with bactrim as an outpatient, and to
have the patient follow-up with urology as an outpatient for
possible future cystoscopy vs ultrasound.

visual changes but no photosensitivity. DDx included meningitis
vs SAH vs GCA vs malignancy vs mastoid sinusitis. Pt initially
tender over temporal arteries with limited flexion of her neck,
however this quickly improved on HD2 with transdermal lidocaine
patches and was believed to be secondary to MSK stiffness and
strain rather than an underlying rheumatologic or infectious
process.
#Afib/flutter- pt s/p ablation procedure EKG in NSR with PAC's

MMF and prednisone) and RA who presents with one day of
abdominal pain. The pain began yesterday afternoon after eating
a large salad. It was been severe though it fluctuates in degree
of pain and has been primarily periumbilical in location. Denies
any associated n/v. Last BM was yesterday afternoon after his
pain
had started; it was reportedly brown and normal in appearance.
He is unsure of last flatus. He does endorse a history of
constipation and an episode that was similar in sensation but
milder and self-resolving several weeks ago; otherwise he has
never had a bowel obstruction. He also endorses bloating. CHEST (PA AND LAT) showed Slightly low lung volumes with bibasilar atelectasis. No focal consolidation.
No frank pulmonary edema. No evidence of free intraperitoneal air. CT ABD AND PELVIS WITH CONTRAST showed 1. Small-bowel obstruction with transition point in the right mid abdomen,
where there is a short segment of hyperemic/thickened small bowel. The short
segment has a targetoid appearance with intramural edema or inflammation.
Possibilities include that this is due to congestion associated with small
bowel obstruction, including the possibility of early ischemic change, versus
intrinsic small-bowel abnormality such as a short-segment of inflammatory
bowel disease. The latter possibility seems less likely, however. This
appearance is not suspicious for a tumor but it may be appropriate,
particularly to exclude a background inflammatory process, to consider
follow-up imaging within a few months.
2. Hyperemic sigmoid colon may represent a skip lesion in the setting of
inflammatory bowel disease. However, this apparent hyperenhancement may be
due to under distension and is an equivocal abnormality.
3. No evidence of free intraperitoneal air.
4. Colonic diverticulosis without evidence of acute diverticulitis.
5. Small to moderate sized fat containing umbilical hernia without significant
secondary inflammatory changes.
6. Small hiatal hernia.
RECOMMENDATION(S): Follow-up cross-sectional imaging, CT or MR, may be
appropriate within 3 months in order to assess for any possibility of an
underlying small-bowel process to explain obstruction. However, obstruction
due to adhesion is favored as the most likely etiology.
NOTIFICATION: Findings and recommendations discussed with Dr. ___ at
approximately 12:45 by telephone. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed NG tube coiled within the stomach. Low lung volumes. Mild cardiomegaly.
Small right pleural effusion cannot be excluded. Radiology showed The enteric tube terminates in the fundus of the stomach. Multiple dilated
loops of small bowel measuring up to 4.1 cm appear unchanged compared to study
from earlier today. Oral contrast is seen within the colon. There are no
abnormally dilated loops of large bowel. There is no free intraperitoneal air,
although evaluation is limited by supine technique. There are no unexplained
soft tissue calcifications. Levoscoliosis of the lumbar spine is noted. Radiology showed The enteric tube is in stable position. The dilated small bowel loops are
slightly decreased in size now measuring up to 3.7 Cm. There is overall
decreased oral contrast in the contrast. No free intraperitoneal air is
identified. There are no radiopaque calculi or acute osseous abnormalities. The patient was diagnosed with Other intestnl obst unsp as to partial versus complete obst, Periumbilical pain.

multifocal infection.
Further assessment with chest CT would be recommended if clinically feasible. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Worsened appearance to the lungs. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, there is little overall change.
Monitoring and support devices are stable. Extensive bilateral pulmonary
opacifications persist, most likely representing some combination of pulmonary
edema and multifocal pneumonia. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the earlier study of this date, there is been placement of
a Dobhoff tube that extends to the upper stomach. Otherwise little change. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Persistent bilateral opacifications, most likely representing pulmonary edema
and/or multifocal pneumonia, with slightly improved aeration of the right
lung. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Moderate bilateral pleural effusion increased since ___. Severe
consolidation in both lungs has also worsened. Moderate enlarged of the
cardiac silhouette unchanged.
ET tube in standard placement. Feeding tube ends in the distal stomach.
Right jugular line ends in the upper right atrium. Ventriculoperitoneal shunt
traverses the right neck chest and upper abdomen. Caval umbrella filter noted
at the level at the L3 level. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the earlier study of this date, there is no convincing
evidence of pneumothorax. Monitoring and support devices are essentially
unchanged, as is the appearance of the heart and lungs. Radiology showed IVC filter overlying the mid abdomen in the expected location of the IVC not
likely in a renal vein; relationship to where the renal veins flow into the
IVC can not be determined on this study. CT CHEST W/O CONTRAST showed 1. Low lung volumes and diffuse airspace consolidations, most severe within
the bilateral lower lobes. Findings are most compatible with severe multifocal
pneumonia.
2. Moderate cardiomegaly and mild smooth interlobular septal thickening
suggestive of concurrent mild pulmonary edema.
3. ETT in appropriate position. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Comparison to ___, 03:10. Increased transparent see of the lung
parenchyma suggests improved ventilation. However, the pre-existing
parenchymal opacities bilaterally are still severe. The overall lung volumes
remain low. Moderate cardiomegaly persists. The monitoring and support
devices continue to be in correct stable position. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Worsening right lower lobe atelectasis, persistent left lower lobe pneumonia.
Unchanged low lung volumes and bilateral pleural effusions. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed No change. DX CHEST PORTABLE PICC LINE PLACEMENT showed Right PICC line terminates in the mid to lower SVC. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Severe pulmonary consolidation is symmetric and basal predominant, and
therefore largely attributable to pulmonary edema. However the predominantly
basal consolidation has been present since at least ___ and therefore
multifocal pneumonia is likely. Severe cardiomegaly is stable.
There are no findings to suggest that pleural effusions have developed since
the let the ___ chest CT which showed none present at that time.
ET tube in standard placement. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed As compared to prior radiograph of 1 day earlier, enlargement of the
cardiomediastinal contours is unchanged, accompanied by worsening diffuse
alveolar opacities, worse on the left than the right. Moderate left and small
right pleural effusions persist. No definite pneumothorax. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Constant correct position of the monitoring and support devices. Low lung
volumes. Diffuse bilateral parenchymal opacities with air bronchograms are
unchanged in extent and severity. Moderate cardiomegaly persists. No larger
pleural effusions. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Severe widespread pulmonary consolidation has worsened. Some accompanying
pleural effusion is presumed, but it may be minimal. Severe cardiomegaly has
not improved.
Tip of the endotracheal tube is above the upper margin of the clavicles, no
less than 5 cm from the carina with the chain elevated. It could be advanced
one are 2 cm for more secure positioning.
Right jugular line and right PIC line both pass through the superior vena cava
but the tips are obscured, probably in the right atrium. No pneumothorax. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed No comparison. Moderate overinflation. Non characteristic scarring at the
right lung basis. No pneumonia, no pulmonary edema, no pleural effusions.
Normal size of the heart. No pneumothorax. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Newly distended stomach and colon. No change in severe bilateral pulmonary

opacities.
NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed by Dr. ___ with Dr.
___ on the telephoneon ___ at 11:27, 60 minutes after
discovery of the findings. Radiology showed Diffuse air-filled loops of bowel suggesting ileus. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Right subclavian PICC line, VP shunt, endotracheal tube, and feeding tube are
unchanged in position. The heart remains markedly enlarged which may reflect
cardiomegaly, although pericardial effusion should also be considered. Lung
volumes are low with layering bilateral effusions and patchy bibasilar
opacities suggestive of atelectasis, although pneumonia cannot be entirely
excluded. No obvious pneumothorax. An IVC filter is incompletely visualized. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed In comparison with the study of ___, the endotracheal tube is been
removed and a tracheostomy tube is now in place. What appears to be a
ventriculoperitoneal shunt remains in place. Right subclavian PICC line is in
the right atrium. The Dobhoff tube is been removed.
Continued low lung volumes with substantial enlargement of the cardiac
silhouette and unchanged pulmonary edema. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Airspace opacity now appears more confluent in the right upper lobe.
Bilateral airspace opacities persist. Otherwise, no significant interval
change. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Repositioning of the tracheostomy with improved aeration of the right upper
lobe. Persistent cardiomegaly. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed No significant interval change when compared to the prior study. Persistent
cardiomegaly and pulmonary vascular congestion. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Increased opacity at the left lung base with partial silhouetting of the left
heart border suspicious for lingular consolidation.
Unchanged mild pulmonary edema. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Opacification in both lower lungs could be pneumonia or dependent edema.
Precise volume of presumed pleural effusions is difficult to assess, probably
not large. Severe cardiomegaly is chronic. No pneumothorax.
Right PIC line ends in the right atrium. Shunt catheter traverses the right
neck paramedian chest and upper abdomen, passing out of view. Chest radiograph. showed 1. An endotracheal tube ends 1 cm above the carina. Recommend withdrawal for
standard positioning.
2. A consolidation in the right upper lobe may be consistent with aspiration
or infection. Bilateral perihilar and basilar opacities may reflect edema and
or aspiration. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Tracheostomy midline. Lung volumes are still very lower exaggerating severity
of at least moderate cardiomegaly. Distribution of alveolar abnormality in
the lungs is relatively symmetric, most likely edema. Residual consolidation
in the left lower lobe has improved.
Right PIC line ends close to the superior cavoatrial junction.
Ventriculoperitoneal shunt traverses the right neck chest and upper abdomen.
Gastrostomy tube and caval umbrella filter noted. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Right subclavian line tip projecting over upper right atrium, slightly more
distal on the prior study. Clinical correlation requested.
Possible slight interval improvement in the bilateral alveolar opacities.
Otherwise, I doubt significant interval change.
RECOMMENDATION(S): Right subclavian line tip projecting over upper right
atrium, slightly more distal on the prior study. Clinical correlation
requested. CT ABD AND PELVIS WITH CONTRAST showed 1. No evidence of intra-abdominal infection.
2. Small volume non-hemorrhagic free fluid in the cul-de-sac, adjacent to the
VP shunt tip.
3. Bibasilar parenchymal opacities at least partially due to known pulmonary
edema, although superimposed pneumonia should be considered in the appropriate
clinical setting. MR HEAD W AND W/O CONTRAST showed 1. Status post AVM embolization in the area of the vein ___ as described
above, there is a prominent straight gyrus, apparently with embolization
material, which appears partially thrombosed, expected for the embolization
procedure.
2. Unchanged right frontal EVD terminating in the region of the foramen of
___, unchanged asymmetry of the lateral ventricles, there is no evidence of
transependymal migration to indicate hydrocephalus.
3. There is hypoplasia of the corpus callosum, more significant in the body
and splenium.
4. Diffuse pachymeningeal enhancement, likely related with EVD placement.
5. Nodular area of enhancement in the right frontal convexity, extra-axial,
likely consistent with dural calcification, however a small meningioma cannot
be completely excluded CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Low lung volumes and marked patient rotation limit overall assessment of the
chest. With these limitations in mind, it cardiomegaly is apparently stable.
New hazy increased opacity is evident in the right infrahilar region, and
could be due to a developing pneumonia or a focus of aspiration. Short-term
followup radiographs with improved positioning may be helpful for more
complete assessment when the patient's condition permits. CT CHEST W/CONTRAST showed Multifocal consolidation throughout the lungs has substantially improved since
___. Progression of widespread ground-glass opacification without
septal thickening or pleural effusions makes diffuse alveolar damage more
likely than cardiac edema. Hypersensitivity or toxic drug reaction should be
considered. Active widespread infection is unlikely. Radiology showed There is a VP shunt device seen with the distal tip extending into the
expected location of a lateral ventricle. A cortical defect is seen in the
region of the parietal bone. Please refer to the procedure note for additional
details. Chest radiograph showed 1. An endotracheal tube terminates 1.0 cm above the carina and should be
pulled back a few cm for standard positioning.
2. Interval placement of a right central venous line ends at the SVC/RA
junction. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Comparison to ___. The pre-existing parenchymal opacities,
bilaterally in the lung parenchyma, have minimally increased in extent and
severity. Lung volumes continue to be low. Moderate cardiomegaly persists.
The presence of a small left pleural effusion cannot be excluded. Signs of
pulmonary edema are mild. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Severe bilateral pulmonary consolidation has worsened, moderate cardiomegaly
and mediastinal vascular engorgement have increased and pleural effusions at
least moderate in size are larger. Overall findings point to cardiac
decompensation, perhaps in a setting of worsening pneumonia.
ET tube in standard placement. Nasogastric drainage tube ends in the distal
stomach. Right jugular line ends in the right atrium. No pneumothorax. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Severe bilateral pulmonary consolidation, severe cardiomegaly, presumed
moderate to large pleural effusions, all unchanged since ___.

#Nausea/vomiting:
The likely etiology of this nausea and vomiting is a side effect
from the methotrexate administration. The ___ was treated
aggressively with IV fluids and anti-emetics. The ___
symptoms took several days to resolve. The ___ had an EGD
to further investigate the etiology of these symptoms. The EGD

fluid. 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. ___ was admitted from the emergency department when a
chest radiograph revealed a large pleural effusion. A subsequent
cardiac echo revealed a large pericardial effusion and she was
taken to the cardiac catheterization lab for drainage. This
procedure drained 480ml. A left pleural pigtail was placed to
drain her pleural effusion. This was discontinued per protocol.
Aspergillis grew from her pericardial fluid and the infectious
disease service was consulted. She was started on an antibiotic
and anti-fungal regimen. This was discontinued as growth was
deemed contamination.
Vascular surgery saw the patient given her residual type B
dissection and lower back pain, but they recommended follow-up
as an out-patient as her repeat CT showed no change in her
dissection. Dysrhythmia was noted on tele and the EP service
was consulted. Per EP attending:
"Episodes of transient
bradycardia/heart block are consistent with vagal episodes;
there
is P-P slowing, PR prolongation, and gradual onset/offset. The
patient has not had any symptoms related to these episodes, most
of which have occurred while sleeping. She has no prior
lightheadedness or syncope. Her resting ECG has no conduction
abnormalities. No further workup is required at this point in
time. She had some AFib in the setting of having a pericardial
drain in place, but she is anticoagulated because of her valve
anyway."
She was also seen in consultation by the ophthalmology service
for a complaint of floaters, but they were felt to be benign.
Coumadin was continued for mechanical AVR. Dr. ___

watching "Dancing with the Stars", it came on gradually and
worsened over the first hour or so, such that her son could not
understand her over the phone. Her husband describes her speech
was "low and slow" and hesitant, but made sense. She had a mild,
dull headache (nonthrobbing). The patient has had slurred speech
before, so decided to go to bed and see how she felt in the AM.
This morning, the dysarthria was somewhat improved, she was able
to speak on the phone at work and was understood. She had a
scheduled appointment with her PCP about her HTN this morning,
and when she reported her recent symptoms, she was advised to go
to ED.
The dysarthria has been gradually improving and continues to
improve in the ED. On initial ED exam, she was reportedly
slurring "L" most, and was moderately dysarthric.

around ___. The episodes typically last only ___ hours. The
last
episode was about one year ago. The duration of this current
episode was the only difference from these prior episodes.
Otherwise, she never had associated vision changes,
numbness/tingling, weakness. Prior notes indicate she had
episodic vertigo, but the patient cannot recall the relationship
between dysarthria and vertigo.

elevations on ECG, but repeat ECG was unchanged and enzymes were
flat. He was fluid resuscitated, started on an insulin gtt and
transitioned to subcutaneous insulin once his anion gap
metabolic acidosis normalized. He was able to tolerate PO and
was transitioned to a diet. He was transferred out to medical
ward where insulin was uptitrated. He had multiple days of poor

discovered that he hadn't been written for diabetic /
carbohydrate consistent diet until ___ and this was changed
with improvement in his BG levels. On discharge, the patient
stated that he has no insulin at home. We wrote Rx for insulin,
which was initially Glargine 60 units BID. However, ___,
did not have this in stock without prior authorization, so I
discussed with ___ who changed it to Tresiba (degludec)
120mg SC in AM only. This has the advantage of only needing once
a day injections given his overall poor compliance. He was
treated for CAP, and tested negative for norovirus. It was
presumed that the diarrhea was either a viral gastroenteritis,
or simply from his chronic pancreatitis. He complained of
chronic abdominal and back pain for which toradol,gabapentin,
duloxetine, and Tylenol were continued, with intential refrain
from using opiates. He was started on ACE-inhibitor therapy with
Lisinopril for BP control; beta blocker was stopped. His
antidepressants were continued, and sleep aids were continued.
Of note, there was a time where he was refusing insulin, as he
has done on multiple different hospital stays, which seems in
part, to be leverage to try and receive opiates. I explained
very clearly that he would not be having any changes to his pain
medications during his stay. He once said he was not going to
take his insulin at home (without providing a good reason), but
after discussion, agreed to do so. Given his multiple
bounce-backs and non-compliance, if he were to get admitted
again, a multidisciplinary care team meeting would be beneficial
to discuss expectations and follow-up. I would have conducted
this, given his behavior the morning of discharge, but because
he was able to go home and eventually agreed to cooperate, the
timing was not prudent this admission.

2. Mild posterior disc bulging is identified at T11/T12 with no evidence of
nerve root compression or significant spinal canal stenosis.
3. Articular joint facet hypertrophy and ligamentum flavum thickening,
possibly calcified, noted at T9/T10 on the right.
4. No focal or diffuse lesions are noted throughout the thoracic spinal cord.
No focal lesions are identified in the cauda equina.
5. Mild left hydronephrosis, partially imaged (image #21, series #6).
MRI OF THE LUMBAR SPINE:
The alignment of the lumbar vertebral bodies appears maintained. Disc
degenerative changes are visualized at L1/L2 level, consistent with disc
desiccation and posterior disc protrusion, causing mild anterior thecal sac
deformity and bilateral neural foraminal narrowing, more significant on the
left (image #7, series #8).
At L2/L3 level, there is disc desiccation and mild posterior disc bulging with
no evidence of nerve root compression or neural foraminal narrowing, mild
articular joint facet hypertrophy is present.
At L3/L4 level, there is disc desiccation and mild posterior disc bulge,
apparently contacting the traversing nerve roots bilaterally (image #7, series
11), moderate articular joint facet hypertrophy is present.
At L4/L5 level, there is disc desiccation and posterior disc bulge, more
significant on the right, causing bilateral neural foraminal narrowing,
contacting the traversing nerve roots, also moderate articular joint facet
hypertrophy is identified at this level.
At L5/S1, there is disc desiccation with a large left paracentral disc
protrusion, impinging the S1 nerve root on the left, the patient is status
post left laminectomy, mild pattern of enhancement is noted in the surgical
bed and surrounding the lateral aspect of the thecal sac (image #19, series

visualized and the sacroiliac joints are unremarkable.
IMPRESSION:
1. The patient is status post laminectomy at L5/S1, no fluid collection or
epidural lesion is identified, however, there is a prominent posterior and
left paracentral disc protrusion, impinging the thecal sac and the S1 nerve
root on the left.

above.
A preliminary report was provided by Dr. ___ on ___. Radiology showed 1. Postoperative changes in the form of anterior fusion of L5 and S1
vertebrae, interbody spacer at L5-S1 disc and left L5 hemilaminectomy. T2
hyperintense prevertebral soft tissue at L5-S1 level which likely represents
postoperative fluid collection. Hypointense focus is noted within this, which
likely represents blood products or air- attention on f/u. CT can be obtained
if clinically indicated for osseous and hardware details.
2. Residual central/left paracentral disc protrusion contacting the traversing
left S1 nerve root. The disc material is smaller in size as compared to the
prior study. Enhancing soft tissue is noted around the disc which likely
represents postoperative granulation tissue. There is enhancement along the
left S1 nerve root which is unchanged since the prior study.
3. Degenerative changes at other levels in the lumbar spine and at T10-T11
level, as described in the text.
4. A few small hypointense foci in the partially imaged uterus likely
represent fibroids- correlate with pelvic ultrasound if not performed earlier.
Assessment of the presacral soft tissues is limited as not targetted. Hypo and

ACUTE ISSUES
# Acute Lower GI Bleed: After 3 days of diuresis and 5 days in
the hospital, patient developed sudden onset of large-volume
painless BRBPR with clots. GI was consulted and recommended
colonoscopy, but patient initially confused. She remained
hemodynamically stable despite ongoing large volume bleeding so
I was of concern for contrast-induced injury for her CKD she was
initially treated pull-through with 4 units PRBCs and remains
stable. 3 days later, however she had another large episode of
bleeding with a episode of relative hypotension and a CTA was
performed that did not demonstrate any signs of active bleeding.
Leading subsequently self resolved 2 additional units of PRBCs
and did not recur. Hemoglobin remained stable for 3 days
subsequently. She did undergo a colonoscopy which demonstrated
large diverticuli and a few polyps but no signs of active
bleeding. Blood counts and blood pressure remained stable for 4
additional days through the time of discharge.

asymptomatic hypoxia after experiencing a fall at home. She did
not have clear left-sided heart symptoms but was noted to have
an elevated BNP JVD. LENIS and VQ scan were negative for VTE.
Chest CT with small b/l effusions, but did not demonstrate
significant emphysematous or bullous changes consistent with
COPD, although she does carry this diagnosis. She was diuresed
starting ___ hospital course with significant improvement in her
hypoxia symptoms. Diuretics were temporarily held during her
bleeding episodes as detailed above. Discharged home on home
diuretics
# Spiculated Mass: Seen on Chest CT, and was noted to have

# Afib RVR: Developed early in her hospital course and did not
recur. Likely triggered by infection and hypovolemia. Improved
with fluids and antibiotics. Did not recur after initial HD #1
and HD #2. Remains off systemic anticoagulation given her
history of severe GI bleeding (done prior to this admission).

#s/p fall c/b C2 fracture:
Patient with unwitnessed fall backward at ___
___ in which he fell backwards and hit his head. The
etiology of the fall is not clear. The differential for the
possible fall included possible seizure, arrhythmia given atrial
fibrillation, symptomatic anemia or mechanical etiologies. An
EEG was done; results still pending. The patient has continued
to be in atrial fibrillation, rate controlled with metoprolol,
and was hemodynamically stable throughout. A TTE was also
peformed and these results showed no structural cardiac cause of
syncope identified. Normal global biventricular function. Mildly
dilated right ventricle. Mild aortic and mitral regurgitation.
___ tricuspid regurgitation. EF: >55%.
A CT head post fall was negative for acute intracranial
pathology, but a CT C spine revealed an acute odontoid fracture
which compromised the right vertebral artery. A subsequent CTA
was done which revealed concern for vertebral artery dissection
in the setting of the C2 fracture. Vascular surgery was
consulted for assistance with managment. Given that the patient
remained hemodynamically stable and without neurologic
compromise from baseline, the patient was likely compensating
through collateral circulation from his left vertebral artery. A
subsequent MR ___ spine was without abnormal cord signal or spinal
canal narrowing. He was managed non operatively by the
orthopedic surgery team. He was continued in a ___ J collar at
all times for a 6 week course. He will need to follow up with
Dr. ___ in orthopedics in 2 weeks.
In regards to the vertebral artery dissection with occlusion,
Vascular surgery recommended 81 mg indefinitely. He will not
need Vascular Surgery follow up.
# Normocytic anemia
The patient was found to have a new normocytic anemia with a
drop from Hgb of 14.8 in ___ to 8.6 now. While the MCV was 83
the RDW was elevated suggesting a possible multifactorial
picture. The patient was found to be iron deficient with a
concomitant low ferritin, and was started in ferrous glucanate
TID. The iron deficiency anemia was concerning given his history
of colon cancer s/p resection. The family will discuss whether
they will pursue a colonoscopy as an outpatient with the PCP.
# Leukocytosis
The patient was admitted with a leukocytosis to 12.5 that
resolved when trended. This was likely reactive in nature. The
patient had anegative UA, CXR, and was without any other
localizing symptoms. He remained afebrile.
# Atrial fibrillation
On recent admission digoxin was held given bradycardia.
Metoprolol decreased from 200 mg to 25 mg. Warfarin discontinued
given history of intracranial hemorrhage. The patient had an

reports that over the last 6 months she has had a decline in her
ability to care for herself. It appears to be have been
precipitated by selling her home of many years. She states that

REVIEW OF SYSTEMS:
- POSITIVE: change in mood, decrease in concentration and
energy, loss of appetite and interest, "no purpose in life,"
increased urgency
- NEGATIVE: fevers, chills, night sweats, change in wt, SI/HI,
CP, palpitations, nausea, vomiting, abodminal pain,
constipation, change in bowel habits, bloody stools (last ___
___ years ago), neuro ymptoms, dysuria Radiology showed No evidence of hemorrhage or recent infarction. Radiology showed Focal peripheral right upper lobe noduular opacity appears slightly more
prominent than on prior studies, possibly due to overlap of the right scapula.
However, further evaluation with a chest CT may be helpful to more fully
characterize this region and to exclude the possibility of a slowly growing
lung adenocarcinoma at this site.

___ with history of GERD, breast CA, osteoporosis, with no
previous psychiatric history, who presented with subacute
paranoia and inability to make decisions for herself. Many of
her central issues with paranoia centered around money and
bills. She was evaluated by Psychiatry, Social work, and
Occupational therapy. She was medically stable during her
admission, and was treated for an uncomplicated UTI. She was
transferred in stable condition to ___ Mental
Health-___ on day 13 of her hospital course.
.
ACTIVE ISSUES
# Paranoia/Inability to make decisions - Likely Mood disoder NOS
and Anxiety Disorder NOS. Appears to be subacute process
occuring over the last 4 months. Other causes of mental status
changes were unremarkable. B12, TSH, RPR were within normal
limits. She was found to have a mildly positive urialysis
without urinary symptoms, but she was treated with a 7 day
course of antibiotics given question of mental status changes.
The time course is not consistent with her several month
decline, and this is likely an incidental finding. No other
apparent toxic-metabolic abnormalities. Psychiatry evaluated the
patient, and determined low concern for delirium or psychosis
due to unremarkable cognitive exam, although she may have mild
cognitive decline/dementia and underlying depression. Patient
will likely benefit from formal inpatient Geriatric/Psychiatric
evaluation and therapy, and patient is agreeable to this option.
Left message for outside psychiatrist Dr. ___ at ___. Alt ___. Increased her risperdone 0.5mg
QHS. She did not require ativan for anxiety during her
admission.
.
# Uncomplicated UTI: From positive UA but unlikely to be major
contribution to subacute change in mental status/anxiety -
Treated with Bactrim x 7 days (last dose on ___ AM). Of note,
patient became concerned about fungal infection of tongue mucosa
(she had recently perused bactrim side effect list) - her tongue
mucosa appears normal, with no sign of infection/abnormalities.
.
CHRONIC ISSUES
# Osteoporosis: Continued calcium/vitamin D at reported home
doses.
.
# Asthma: Continued albuterol inhaler prn.
.
# Persistent Right upper lobe nodular opacity on CXR - Discussed
possible CT-scan of her lung nodule, but patient would like to
defer scanning of that until later given her current psychiatric
condition. She feels that deciding about repeat scans, any
subsequent procedures on the nodule (if necessary), or a
potentially distressing diagnosis would be too much for her to
handle right now, and prefers to follow up on this once she
improves.
.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
1) Focal peripheral right upper lobe nodular opacity appears
slightly more prominent than on prior studies, possibly due to
overlap of the right scapula. However, further evaluation with a
chest CT may be helpful to more fully characterize this region
and to exclude the possibility of a slowly growing lung
adenocarcinoma at this site.
2) She needs skilled OT services to address areas of money and
home management.
3) She will need a follow up appointment with her PCP ___ weeks
after discharge from the psychiatric facility.
4) Consider starting daily baby aspirin in this patient.</s> |

anticoagulation) who presented with sudden onset of altered
mental status x1 day, likely baseline vascular dementia given
stepwise decline over time.
ACTIVE DIAGNOSES:
#DEMENTIA, likely vascular: Patient presented to ED with AMS x1
day prior to admission. Had been seen normal the evening prior,
the was found 2 hours later banging on neighbor's door,
demanding to speak to her husband and daughter, both of whom are
deceased. Non-contrast head CT was normal. Urinalysis negative
for infection. No leukocytosis or significant metabolic
abnormalities. No changes in medications. Patient had been in
her usual state of health prior and based on collateral from
family she was very independent and interactive, though has
significant visual and auditory impairment. Of note the patient
had a similar episode a few weeks ago from which she recovered.
Patient's home aides states that the patient had been feeling
well prior to this event. No fevers/chills. No cough, no dysuria
or abdominal pain and had not taken any OTC medications,
specifically, no pseudophedrine or Benadryl. Patient received
Haldol in the ED and then Zyprexa on the floor. This with time
improved her agitation, but she was still confused. At the time
of discharge, patient was calm, AAOx1-2 and not requiring
antipsychotic medication. Given lack of an obvious underlying
cause, in the setting of a step-wise decline per family in a
patient with known atrial fibrillation, understandably not on
anticoagulation, this is suggestive of vascular dementia.
Patient was seen by physical therapy and occupational therapy
who recommended long-term care placement.
#URINARY TRACT INFECTION: UA and UCx were obtained upon
admission and were negative. However, while in house the patient
had urinary retention requiring intermittent catheterization.
Given her increased frequency of retention a repeat UA and UCx
were sent which returned with pan-sensitive E. coli. Patient was
given 1 dose of CTX on ___ and then switched to Bactrim DS on
___ upon return of sensitivities with goal to treat for 7 days
(last day ___.
#METABOLIC ANION GAP ACIDOSIS: On presentation AG 16,
delta/delta 1.3 which is consistent with a pure metabolic anion
gap acidosis, further supported by elevated lactate of 2.7.
Patient had been in ED for over 24 hours, likely had not been
eating much. No IVF given. This in addition to likely agitated
movements is likely sufficient to cause a slightly elevated
lactic acidosis. Otherwise hemodynamically stable without signs
of end organ damage or infection/sepsis. This resolved with IV
fluid.
#ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY: sCr 1.4 at presentation which appears to
be near baseline based on labs over the last ___ years, likely CKD
though no formal diagnosis made in chart. sCr improved to ___
s/p 500cc NS. Elevated lactate described as above. No
hyponatremia or other electrolyte abnormalities.
#ATRIAL FIBRILATION: Not on anticoagulation. Rate controlled
with labetalol and diltiazem prior to the admission. Continued
on diltiazem, but we reduced the dose because of bradycardia.
Stopped labetalol because of hypotension and bradycardia.
#HYPERTENSION: The patient was hypotensive and bradycardic
during her admission. Her home labetalol and HCTZ were both
stopped. Diltiazem was reduced from 240mg daily to 120mg daily.
On discharge her systolic blood pressure was in the 120-150
range.
#HYPERLIPIDEMIA: She was on simvastatin 20mg QHS at home. This
was stopped because it interacts with diltiazem and because her
life expectancy does not warrant further treatment with a
statin.

thickening since ___.
3. Significant improvement in number and size of mediastinal and hilar lymph
nodes since ___.
4. Stable hypodense hepatic lesion in segment 2. CHEST (PA AND LAT) showed Left pleural effusion has increased. The patient was diagnosed with Unspecified atrial fibrillation. The patient was treated with ___ TEE with cardioversion. At the time of discharge, the patient had New onset atrial fibrillation with RVR
Hypo-osmolar Hyponatremia
Essential Hypertension
CLL with thrombocytopenia
Hypothyroidism. 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>Mr ___ is a ___ nurse ___/ CLL/SLL,
hypogammaglobulinemia, hypothyroidismcurrently on treatment with
ibrutinib presents with dizziness and oliguria on ___
found
to have hyponatremia and new onset afib with RVR. CTPE and
echocardiogram was pursued without evidence of acute heart
failure or pulmonary embolism as cause of afib. Patient had an
elevated JVD and increased crackles that improved but not
resolved on discharge.
# Atrial fibrillation w/ RVR - new onset. No chest pain. trop

x2, EKG neg. TSH 9 - normal T4 known hypothyroidism. CTA neg for
PE. TTE without right heart strain or heart failure.
Uncontrolled
rate with po dilt and iv push on ___ transitioned to metop 12.5
QID titrated to 25 QID ___ with still HR 110s-150s. sBP now
___. Cardiology consult recommended diuresis and then
uptitration to 37.5 mg po q6hr on ___. However, this did not
control her rapid ventricular rate. She underwent a Successful
DCCV ___ now in NSR.
- Appreciate Cardiology recommendations, they are arranging a
follow-up appointment with a cardiology specialist and will call
the patient for information
- Toprol XL 25 qdaily
-Coumadin x 1 month post ___ for coverage. INR 2.5 on
discharge. DCCV occurred ___. 1 month ___.
-6% possibility of ibrutinib causing afib, oncology requested to
hold until f/u. Will need to monitor CBC closely to ensure that
Coumadin benefit of stroke prevention outweighs risk of
bleeding.
# volume overload. Ms. ___ was consistently net negative
during this admission. She was placed on a fluid restriction and
continued to obtain diuresis. TTE did not show signs of heart
failure so likely due to her medication ibrutinib.
- d/c on Lasix 40 mg x 7 days until re-evaluation with PCP.
- If still elevated JVD on f/u appointment will continue Lasix
40. If not, will change to Lasix 20 mg qdaily.
# Hyponatremia- presented hypervolemic with Na 121 and urine
studies showing Na 20 and Osm 112 making hypervolemic
hyponatremia likely. This improved with diuresis but then
worsened when gave back fluids attempting to help with HR.
Still mildly volume overloaded on exam so Lasix given on
discharge. Na 125 on discharge but stable over several days.
Repeat studies revealed a Na 40 and Osm 265 making a component
of SIADH. Fluid restriction was started at 2L.
- Continue fluid restriction 2L
- Continue Lasix 40 mg po qdaily until f/u with oncology on
___ and PCP ___ 7 days. If JVD has improved could decreased
down to 20 mg qdaily
# Bronchiectasis
Minimal improvement of symptoms, stable cough, afebrile. WBC
likely due to hemoconcentration. Levaquin dc'd ___ (14 day
course).
- cont inhalers, IS
# CLL/SLL
WBC/plt dropping since held ibrutinib on admission.
- hold ibrutinib due to afib, expect labs to drop. Plan to hold
until f/u with oncologist
# Hypogammaglobulinemia
- t/b BMT team re next infusion, will be as outpatient
# Pleural effusion, Left
She was found to have this on POCUS in ED, left sided. Chronic
per patient with no oxygen requirements. CTA no focal
infiltrate.
# Mouth sores
Will start magic mouthwash, encourage oral hygiene

<s>[INST] <<SYS>> Act as a health expert <</SYS>> create brief hospital course of the following text: ___ hx ___ disease, prostate CA s/p prostatectomy, SBO
presenting with LLQ pain and abdominal distention. Patient
reports over last few weeks, has been having intermittent spasms
in LUQ. Mild mid abdominal pain, non-radiating, worse with
eating. No alleviating factors. Associated distention and
decreased flatus/BM, with thinner BMs than normal. Patient
reports last BM this morning. Pain feels like previous bowel
obstruction. Notes he has been vomiting, poor PO intake, noted
collared greens from Christmas dinner in recent vomuit. Denies
f/c, chest pain, shortness of breath, diarrhea, melena,
hematochezia, urinary symptoms. CT abdomen and pelvis with contrast showed 1. High-grade small bowel obstruction with dilatation of the small bowel
measuring up to 76 mm. Etiology of obstruction is somewhat unclear. Equivocal
mesenteric swirling ___ sign) involving decompressed small bowel loops
just distal to the maximally distended small bowel can suggest volvulus as the
obstructing point though this does not fit the clinical picture. However,
wall thickening and hyperemia of the distal involved small bowel suggests
Crohn's involvement as the far more likely etiology. However, this finding
along with trace ascites is can be seen with early ischemia. Close clinical
monitoring and emergent surgical consultation is advised.
2. Anasarca.
3. Centrilobular emphysema.
4. Bilateral hip configuration suggestive of mixed pincer/CAM type
femoroacetabular impingement. Associated mild to moderate bilateral
degenerative hip joint change.
NOTIFICATION: The findings were discussed by Dr. ___ with Dr. ___ on the
telephone on ___ at 3:11 AM, 2 minutes after discovery of the findings.
Examination was reviewed in person with Dr. ___ of ACS in person on ___ at 03:25. Per report, patient's clinical status does not support
a volvulus and high-grade small bowel obstruction from Crohn's flare is more
likely. CHEST PA AND LATERAL showed New left lower lobe opacities concerning for pneumonia.
NOTIFICATION: The above findings were communicated via telephone by Dr.
___ to Dr. ___ at 11:00 on there is ___, 5
min after discovery. CHEST PORT. LINE PLACEMENT showed After passing into the upper SVC the new PIC line is angulated and may extend
into either the azygos system or left brachiocephalic vein. Withdrawing the
line 3 cm would reposition it in the upper SVC. No pneumothorax or
mediastinal widening. Small left pleural effusion is unrelated. Heart size
normal. Lungs clear. CHEST PORT. LINE PLACEMENT showed Right PIC line ends in the upper SVC. Lungs hyperinflated but clear of
heterogeneous opacification at the base of the left lung is new since ___. This could be atelectasis, reflected in mild relative elevation of the
left hemidiaphragm, or it could be aspiration with or without early pneumonia.
Careful followup advised.
Blunting of the left lateral pleural sulcus is chronic and more likely
thickening than small pleural effusion. Right pleural surfaces are normal.
Heart is normal size. CHEST (PRE-OP PA AND LAT) showed Right PICC line tip is at the level of superior SVC. Heart size and
mediastinum are stable. Lungs are essentially clear with substantial interval
improvement of left basal consolidation. Minimal amount of left pleural fluid
is noted, unchanged since the prior study. The patient was diagnosed with INTESTINAL OBSTRUCT NOS. The patient was treated with ___: Small-bowel resection and ileocecectomy. At the time of discharge, the patient had Crohn disease with obstruction.. 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>___ hx ___ disease, prostate CA s/p prostatectomy, SBO
presenting with LLQ pain and abdominal distention, SBO on
imaging.
# Small bowel ___: Likely due to known
stricturing ___. Less likely volvulus given pt not in
significant pain. No e/o abdominal sepsis. Rapid recurrence and
stricturing nature of disease points to the need for operative
management. Malnourished. He was started on IV steroids, mIVF
with dextrose, thiamine, folate, MVI. ___ held per GI. Attempts
at diet advancement failed after NGT removed and the pt was
transferred to the colorectal surgical service for a Small-bowel
resection and ileocecectomy which he tolerated well. At the time
of discharge he was tolerating PO, was passing flatus and having
bowel movements. He will follow up in Colorectal surgery clinic
and will continue to follow with his PCP and GI physicians.
# Osteoporosis: Cont vit D, Ca held as it interfered with Phos
repletion.
# Nutrition: Pt was started on TPN while in the hospital, which
he tolerated well. Post op he was began on a clear diet, then
transitioned to a regular diet, which he tolerated well. His
PICC was d/ced prior to discharge
# Pneumonia: He was treated for Hospital acquired pneumonia with
vancomycin and Levofloxicin, which he tolerated well. </s> |
