ACTIVE ISSUES: ============== #Abdominal pain #Diarrhea Patient presenting with abdominal pain after recent TACE procedure on ___ with 3 days of diarrhea that resolved day prior to presentation and no nausea/vomiting. He denied any dietary changes, medication changes, recent travel or sick contacts. Given his recent TACE he was advised to go to the ED for further workup. In the ED, ultrasound and CT abdomen showed no acute abnormalities including no signs of infection, obstruction or ischemia. Lipase of 5 lowered suspicion of recurrent pancreatitis. Given no acute intraabdominal processes seen on imaging and self-resolution of patient's diarrhea, we felt that this was most consistent with viral gastroenteritis with abdominal pain from post-infectious IBS. An infectious work up including blood culture and urine culture were negative, and stool cultures were pending on discharge. Patient was discharged given resolution of his diarrhea, and he was advised to continue dicyclomine for his abdominal pain and to follow up for his scheduled EGD on ___. #NASH/HCV cirrhosis c/b esophageal varices #___ s/p TACE (___) Patient with a hx of NASH/HCV cirrhosis complicated by ___ s/p TACE in ___ and again recently on ___ for recurrence. Last EGD in ___ showed 4 grade I cords of distal esophageal varices with no bleeding. No known history of ascites, SPB, or HE. MELD on admission 14. Abdominal ultrasound on admission though limited showed reversal of portal flow most likely due to portal HTN, though may also suggest a portosystemic shunt. Patient did not demonstrate any signs of HE throughout admission. #Myelodysplastic syndrome #moderate neutropenia Patient with a hx of MDS with baseline leukopenia to ~2, admitted with WBC 1.8 with ANC 880 (normally baseline >1500).

Hospitalization complicated by anemia, thrombocytopenia, UTI, bacteremia. . # Acute renal failure/Recurrent nephrotic syndrome: The patient has had 2 or 3 prior episodes of nephrotic syndrome, caused by minimal change disease, which had previously been responsive to steroids. During this relapse of nephrotic syndrome, he was on PO prednisone 60 mg daily for 14 days prior to being admitted, yet he was not responding to the PO prednisone. Upon admission, he was transitioned from PO prednisone 60 mg daily to IV solumedrol 125 mg daily. His creatinine initially trended down with IV solumedrol but it then reached a plateau that was elevated at baseline at ~5 up from baseline of ~1 in ___. Mild ATN may have contributed to ___.

The patient has a history of iron-deficiency anemia, on iron supplementation. He also has a history of gastritis which was previously evaluated by endoscopy. The patient had an MCV of 74 which is consistent with microcytic anemia with a possible iron-deficient etiology. Fe studies showed anemia of chronic disease possibly from a renal etiology. Retic count was 0.6, indicating that a component of the patient's anemia is caused by his kidneys not producing enough EPO in the setting of CKD or his bone marrow not responding to the EPO. GNR bacteremia (see below) may have also contributed to anemia. During admission, hct trended down. Transfusion threshold was hct 25 and he required 2 units of pRBCs over the admission. He had guaiac positive stool x1. Given history of gastritis, there was concern for possible UGIB. An EGD showed that the patient has mild gastritis but no active source of bleeding. Gastric biopsy results pending at time of discharge. He will f/u with GI as outpatient for possible colonoscopy and EUS to evaluate the possible lipoma in the second part of his duodenum. . #Thrombocytopenia: Platelets trended down from baseline 200 to nadir of 89. The dx included infection, HIT, hemodialysis, DIC, TTP-HUS, and post-transfusion purpura. In setting of GNR bacteremia and low reticulocyte count, it is likely that his bone marrow was being suppressed. Initially, heparin sq was held, but HIT type 2 antibody test was negative. At that time, heparin SQ and for dialysis line were re-started. No extensive bruising, has no hematuria, has no bloody diarrhea and normal hemolysis labs. Normal FDP fibrinogen coagulation panel. On d/c, platelets were 167. . #UTI, bacterial: U/A was indicative of infection. Urine culture showed Klebsiella pneumoniae which was pan sensitive. At this time, the foley was pulled. Patient was initially treated with Cipro, but was then transitioned to cepfepime --> ceftriaxone given bacteremia (see below). . #Bacteremia: On ___, blood cultures grew out GNRs, found to be klebsiella, pan sensitive as organism in the urine. Thus, source of bacteremia was UTI. First neg blood culture on ___. The patient has been on ceftriaxone 1 g Q24h to treat this infection. The patient will need to be on antibiotics to treat his bacteremia until ___ for a 2 week course. On d/c, he will switch from ceftriaxone to Ceftazadime per HD protocol (1g after HD). . #Hypertension, benign: The patient has a history of essential Hypertension. His increase in volume status was likely contributing to his elevated BP as SBPs were better controlled after dialysis sessions. Patient was well controlled on hydralazine 25mg q6h in house, but was transitioned to amlodipine 5mg qd as it is more feasible for him to take a daily drug at home. Will need to continue to titrate amlodipine as needed. . #Diabetes, type II, uncontrolled, without complications: Blood glucose was difficult to control in the setting of high dose steroids as above. Initially, he was managed with Lantus in the morning in addition to insulin sliding scale. However, sugars were still elevated and ___ was consulted--recommended changing to NPH and helped with sliding scale. He will need to f/u with ___ as outpatient as glucose will be particularly difficult to control when prednisone is tapered. . #Hypercholesterolemia: Continued home simvastatin 40 mg PO daily. . #GERD: Temporarily on IV PPI when ?UGIB, then transitioned back to home omeprazole 20mg qd. .</s>

Her MRI brain showed new areas of right frontal and left frontoparietal hyperintensity suspicious for leptomeningeal metastasis, multiple stable calvarial mets measuring up to 1.5cm in the right occipital bone with destruction of the inner table, with probably underlying dural involvement. Her CSF cytology however was negative for malignant cells. Radiation oncology felt that in the context of negative cytology WBRT was not indicated and that there was no one skull based lesion that merited targeted radiation, though she does have right sided lesion which is larger than the other which could be considered for radiation should her headaches fail to improve further in the next 2 weeks. Dr. ___ neuro oncology was following and also felt that in absence of positive cytology intrathecal chemotherapy was not indicated.

The differential includes spontaneous CSF rupture/leak which would be expected to self-resolve however opening pressure was not low (26) which argues against this. There was nothing to suggest bacterial/infectious etiology such as meningitis as she never had fever or leukocytosis or meningismus. Her CSF had 0 WBC and 0 polys. There was a report of GPR on CSF which was felt to be corynebacteria and given absence of any clinical sx/signs of bacterial meningitis, this was felt to be skin contaminant.

She had CT in the ED which showed a new 6 mm mid-line shift as compared with imaging done ___. Per family discussion at the time of admission no neurosurgical intervention was indicated, nor was it within the patient's goals of care. Patient was started on Dexamethasone 4mg BID and was subsequently increased to 4mg QID the second day of admission. Neuro onc consulted and recommended MRI which showed worsening likely infiltrative process causing edema and midline shift, no evidence of an acute stroke. Patient was also started on Keppra for seizure prophylaxis given history of unresponsive episodes at her nursing facility. Given location of her meningioma, it was felt very likely that patient would have some element of seizure activity on EEG. No e/o infection on labs, no significant electrolyte/LFT/BMP abnormalities from baseline. Per neuro-onc, given already present cerebral edema, radiation therapy was not an option for treatment. Given the patient's poor prognosis, progressive cerebral edema and midline shift, and limited medical therapies, GOC conversion with family on ___ led to decision to transition the patient to comfort measures while still continuing on dexamethasone and Keppra for comfort. Patient was discharged to inpatient hospice. #HTN Blood pressure progressively increased throughout her admission, as high as 202/68 on ___.

Of note, she recently saw her PCP ___ ___ for concerns regarding unintentional weight loss (one year prior she was 142-lbs and weighed 126-lbs on ___ with associated anorexia, nausea and heightened anxiety symptoms with unidentifiable source (previously poor response to Ativan - recently started on Celexa 10 mg PO daily). Her nausea was worsened with PO intake, but she denied early satiety or abdominal pain, rather poor appetite. She has been treated for bile salt diarrhea following her cholecystectomy with minimal benefit. She also reported peripheral neuropathy and worsening of her sciatica. Her PCP performed ___ laboratory evaluation showing a WBC 14.2, HCT 35.9%, hypokalemic and hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis with acute renal failure to 2.2 (baseline 0.9-1.0). . On the floor, she is accompanied by her daughters. Upon questioning, the patient has had at least 2-weeks of persisent nausea and decreased appetite. She denies early satiety, but has a decreased interest in food. She also has had episodic food particulate emesis in the last few days that is non-bloody. She notes her weight loss has been on-going for several months and that she has experienced generalized fatigue and malaise. She also notes several weeks of loose, watery and non-bloody stools. They are not pale, greasy, voluminous, or foul-smelling stools. She denies fevers, chills or nightsweats. She has no chest pain or trouble breathing. She denies headaches or vision changes. She denies URI symptoms or sick contacts. She has not recently traveled, has no rashes and has not used antibiotics recently. She denies numbness or tingling. She has no weakness. . Of note, her ___ year-old grandson grandson was recently diagnosed with tonsillar or oropharyngeal cancer which has precipitated a fair amount of anxiety in the family. The patient's daughters note that she seems 'out of it' lately and more somnolent than usual in the last few days. . In the ED, vitals 96.1 107/57 65 18 96%RA. The patient received 1L NS x 1. A CXR showed no acute process. Her labs were remarkable for a WBC 14.2 (N 83.2), HCT 32.9, INR 1.0, potassium of 3.0, metabolic alkalosis with bicarbonate of 34, and creatinine 2.3. She received 40 mEq of PO KCl. An EKG was NSR with no acute ST-changes noted. U/A was negative. A Foley catheter was placed for UOP monitoring. . On the floor, she has no complaints of note, other than generalized fatigue. Radiology showed No acute intrathoracic process. Radiology showed 1. Subcentimeter right upper lobe lung nodule could be an early bronchogenic carcinoma, with no evidence that it has metastasized to regional lymph nodes. 2. Handful of punctate nodules in the left lung could be inflammatory or early metastases. 3. Small bilateral pleural effusions and right pleural thickening are of uncertain significance.

[/INST] </s><s>___ with a PMH significant for temporal arteritis (biopsy-proven ___, three episodes of transient right eye blindness, previously on Prednisone), Osteopenia, HTN, HLD, hypothyroidism, hyperparathyroidism, sciatica, peripheral neuropathy, s/p cholecystectomy (with bile salt diarrhea) who presents as a direct admission from her PCP office given concerns for unintentional 15-lbs weight loss, persistent nausea and anorexia found to have acute renal insufficiency . # UNINTENTIONAL WEIGHT LOSS, POOR PO INTAKE - The patient presented with a vague constellation of symptoms, specifically an unintentional weight loss of roughly 15-lbs over the course of ___ years (146 to 125-lbs) with decreased interest in food and poor PO intake rather than early satiety. She denied abdominal pain. She has persistent nausea and some emesis episodes that are non-bloody. She denies fevers or chills, has had no sick contacts and or recent URI symptoms. Possible etiologies included: endocrinopathy (hyperthyroidism, diabetes, adrenal insufficiency) vs. gastrointestinal disorders (anorexia, without abdominal pain, denies early satiety; no dysphagia, odynophagia or dysmotility - consider malabsorption or chronic infectious diarrhea given leukocytosis; unlikely obstruction) vs. inflammatory bowel disease (no history of UC or Crohn, no bloody diarrhea, no abdominal pain) vs. occult malignancy (reassuring age-appropriate screening and negative stool guaiac, but significant hypercalcemia makes this more likely) vs. substance abuse concerns (denied by patient; daughters note prior heavy alcohol use) vs. medication-effect. . We consulted Gastroenterology and, along with serologic studies, they recommended EGD and colonoscopy which was performed on ___ and showed only grade I internal hemorrhoids and scoped to the hepatic flexure; otherwise normal colon. There was microscopic evidence of microscopic colitis (lymphocytic variant) and she was started on Budenoside 3 mg PO daily and will follow-up with her GI physician. Her EGD showed a small hiatal hernia, but no other abnormality. She has also had age-appropriate screening - normal colonoscopy (___), mammography in ___ BI-RADS 1 and negative for malignancy. Her TSH was 4.0, random cortisol level was reassuring. We sent stool studies which were negative and reassuring (including Giardia, C.diff toxin negative). Fecal fat assessment was ordered to rule out a malabsorptive picture of diarrhea and was pending at discharge. A urine and serum toxicology screen was negative. Her nutritional status was impaired - her albumin 3.2 and iron studies compatible with a mild component of anemia of chronic disease. We asked the Nutritionists to evaluate her and we supplemented her diet with oral Ensure shakes with meals and she steadily improved. Her weight was closely monitored. . The unintentional weight loss and anorexia with nausea was all attributed to her severe hypercalcemia and likely underlying malignancy (see below). Her chronic diarrhea was attributed to her microscopic colitis. . # HYPERCALCEMIA - On the patient's initial evaluation her serum calcium was 8.8-8.9 in ___, with hypocalcemia in the 7.7 range in ___ and was last checked at 7.4 in ___ - this admission her calcium was initially drawn at 17.9 (correction for albumin of 3.2 would be 18.4) with phosphorus of 2.6. Her creatinine baseline was 0.8-0.9 (and has trended upward from 1.1 to 1.7 and on presentation was in the 2.2-2.3 range). She initially presentated with fatigue, weight loss (anorexia and nausea), mild abdominal discomfort, mental clouding and neuropsychiatric complaints all fitting with the serum calcium measurement; no PTH had been measured previously. Possible etiologies included: primary hyperparathyroidism vs. hypervitaminosis with vitamin D vs. malignancy (most probable) vs. milk-alkali syndrome vs. bone resorptive issues (Paget disease, immobilization, vitamin A overuse); with that said, serum calcium values > 13 mg/dL are more concerning for malignancy and her serum calcium was > 18 mg/dL this admission. Nephrology was consulted early and assisted with management of her acute renal failure and hypercalcemia. She was initially treated with aggressive IV fluid resuscitation - a goal of 6L (received 1L NS x 1 in the ED, ran NS @ 200 cc/hr for goal UOP 100-150 cc/hr) was achieved. Following these fluids, we switched her to maintenance fluid with Lasix 20 mg IV BID to follow. She also received Calcitonin 100 units SC Q12 hours for 2-days and was dosed a bisphosphonate, specifically Pamidronate 60 mg IV (received ___. The IV bisphosphonate medication should be dosed every ___ months. Her labs revealed a PTH ___, a TSH of 4.0, vitamin D-25 and 1,25 levels were pending, UPEP was negative and SPEP was negative. We serially trended her calcium and phosphorus levels and monitored her electrolytes. She was maintained on telemetry and her electrolytes were optimized. Her Foley catheter was removed without issue following her re-hydration; it had been placed for urine output monitoring. We also stopped Lasix and allowed her to maintain PO hydration for 24-hours prior to discharge, with good effect. We discontinued her Calcium, Vitamin D and Hydrochlorothiazide medication given her hypercalcemia. Her calcium maintained in the ___ mg/dL range prior to discharge and will be followed as an outpatient. . We began the work-up for a malignancy this admission, given her extreme hypercalcemia (milk alkali syndrome and hypervitaminosis-D were considered) - the most likely etiologies being multiple myeloma vs. lymphoma vs. solid tumor malignancy with production of PTHrp. Her work-up for myeloma was unrevealing with a negative UPEP and SPEP, and her free kappa and gamma light chain analysis was pending at the time of discharge. A CT of the chest showed a right lung nodule which was suspicious for malignancy with a left-sided smaller lesion as well (see radiology read). She will likely need biopsy of one of these lesions for tissue diagnosis, given the concern for a bronchogenic carcinoma. Given her smoking history and unintentional weight loss, this was the most likely diagnosis, but her recombinant PTH was still pending at discharge. A CT abdomen and pelvis was also obtained for staging, and the final read was pending at the time of discharge - but this preliminarily showed a non-obstructing renal stone and some retroperitoneal nodes. . # PERSISTENT DIARRHEA - The patient has had persistent diarrhea for several days to weeks that has been watery, occasionally formed and non-bloody with no abdominal pain or features of early satiety. She has a remote history of bile salt diarrhea reported following cholecystectomy without relief after cholestyramine therapy. She was admitted with leukocytosis to 14 (neutrophilia), and was afebrile nonetheless. She denied recent sick contacts, had no recent URI symptoms, and no recent travel or antibiotics. Possible etiologies included inflammatory bowel disease (stools were non-bloody) vs. irritable bowel syndrome vs. functional diarrhea (possible given no abdominal pain but exclusionary diagnosis) vs. microscopic colitis vs. malabsorption (denied pale, greasy, voluminous, foul-smelling stools; we considered lactose intolerance or chronic pancreatic insufficiency, as well as celiac disease) vs. post-cholecystectomy diarrhea (performed ___ vs. chronic infections (C. difficile, Aeromonas, Plesiomonas, Campylobacter, Giardia, Amebae, Cryptosporidium, Whipple's disease, and Cyclospora) vs. medication effects. Gastroenterology was consulted and recommended an extensive work-up. The patient had negative ova & parasite culture, a negative C.diff toxin, negative stool studies for bacteria and Giardia. Immune-mediated work-up showed no immunoglobulin deficits and tTG-IgA for celiac was negative. An EGD and colonoscopy was performed and did show evidence of microscopic colitis which was treated with Budenoside 3 mg PO daily and this should be monitored by her GI physician. Her fecal fat qualitative assessment was pending at the time of discharge. . # ACUTE RENAL FAILURE - She presented with acute renal insufficiency with a creatinine of 2.2-2.3 with a baseline of 0.9-1.0 and with no prior chronic renal insuffiency. The patient also presented with an acute hypokalemic, hypochloremic metabolic alkalosis, attributed to contraction from volume depletion. On exam, she was noted to have volume depletion and dehydration given her nutritional status. A U/A showed trace protein (although her protein/creatinine ratio was elevated at 34.3) and she received 1L NS x 1 in the ED. Her FeNA was 1% on admission. We consulted Nephrology given her hypercalcemia and acute renal insufficiency. Her UPEP and SPEP were negative for ___ proteins or M-spike, respectively. Her creatinine dramatically improved with hydration from 2.2 to 1.7-1.8 prior to discharge. This will be monitored as an outpatient. A Foley catheter had been placed initially and was discontinued when she tolerated oral hydration. She voided without issues. A urine culture was negative for growth this admission. Lastly, we avoided all nephrotoxins (discontinued her Gabapentin) and renally dosed all medications. . # LEUKOCYTOSIS - She presented with a WBC to ___ with a neutrophil predominance (N83.2 L13.1 M3.2 E0.3 B0.2, no bandemia); without fevers or chills and without systemic symptoms of infection (no dysuria, no URI or cough symptoms) with the exception of chronic diarrheal concerns. Of note, she stopped oral systemic steroids in ___ and during her treatment period had a leukocytosis in the ___ range. Other etiologies considered included: hematologic or solid malignancy vs. medication-induced (not on steroids) vs. hypercalcemia. There were no indications for antibiotics and in the end, an exhaustive infectious work-up only revealed microscopic colitis. The colitis, along with a potential malignancy, was the most likely etiology of her leukocytosis. A CXR was negative, U/A was reassuring, and urine and blood cultures along with stools studies were all negative and reassuring. She remained afebrile and her leukocytosis improved to 14 prior to discharge. . # TEMPORAL ARTERITIS, POLYMYALGIA RHEUMATICA - Has a history of biopsy-proven giant cell arteritis in ___, with three episodes of transient right eye blindness; previously on Prednisone, but not within the last 6-months. No recurrence of symptoms and managed by Dr. ___ from ___ with last follow-up in ___. This admission, she had no evidence of vision changes or PMR flare. . # OSTEOPENIA, BONE METABOLISM - She was diagnosed on BMD imaging in ___ with no vertebral or pathologic fractures of note; and had been maintained on Calcium carbonate-Vitamin D3 500 (1250 mg/200 units) PO daily - no longer on chronic steroids for temporal arteritis - had left partial hip arthroplasty for left hip OA in ___. Given her above issues with hypercalcemia, we discontinued her Vitamin D and calcium supplementation. . # PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY - The patient has a chronic diagnosis with evidence of peripheral neuropathy in the lower extremities; etiologies included vitamin B12 vs. folate deficiency vs. alcohol-induced (prior heavy history of abuse, denies current use) vs. medications vs. chronic malnutrition vs. diabetic neuropathy (HbA1c 5.9% in ___ vs. hypercalcemia issues. This admission her HbA1c was normal, her vitamin-B12 - 1352, folate - > 10 and she was maintained on a Multivitamin 1 tab PO daily, Thiamine 100 mg PO daily and Folate 1 mg PO daily. Again, we discontinued Gabapentin for now given renal insufficiency and concern for mental status changes and recent somnolence, per her daughters. We did not resume this medication. . # HYPERTENSION - The patient is normotensive and she has been well-controlled on Triamterene-Hydrochlorothiazide 37.5-25 mg PO daily; prior PCP visits note systolic BP in the 100-120 mmHg range. We discontinued her potassium-sparring diuretic and thiazide diuretic given her renal insufficiency and electrolyte abnormalities. . # HYPERLIPIDEMIA - in ___, FLP showing cholesterol was 127, Trig 99, HDL 65, LDL 42 - she has been maintained on Simvastatin 20 mg PO daily and we continued this medication. . # SCIATICA - She had no evidence of active back pain complaints; not currently on narcotic medications; Tylenol ___ mg PO Q6H PRN pain was administered as needed and we monitored her neurologic exam. .</s>

[/INST] </s><s>BRIEF SUMMARY ============= ___ year old male with history of Hep C cirrhosis s/p Harvoni c/b varices s/p TIPS ___ after admission for variceal bleed, presenting with anemia, NSTEMI, and decompensated CHF. ACTIVE ISSUES ============= #Acute on chronic CHF exacerbation: The patient was recently admitted with NSTEMI in the setting of GIB. At that time, he was initiated on statin, but ASA was held in the setting of GIB. No beta blocker due to history of severe bradycardia from them. He was scheduled to follow-up with cardiology for further work-up (stress vs. cath), however he represented with anemia and a NSTEMI. Cardiology was consulted as an inpatient and the patient was managed in a similar fashion. He was started on ASA 81mg, heparin gtt was held due to concern for risk of variceal hemorrhage pending EGD, and beta blocker held due to risk of bradycardia. He was continued on high dose statin. On ___ due to worsening tachypnea, shortness of breath, patient transferred to the MICU for nitro gtt, TTE, further diuresis and possible BIPAP. In the MICU, he was started on captopril and uptitrated to lisinopril 40 mg. Home hydralazine was started. He was diuresed with IV Lasix boluses up to 60 mg BID with good effect. Repeat TTE showed mildly depressed EF 45-50%. # Type II NSTEMI/Chest Discomfort: Likely ___ hypertensive emergency with some EKG changes with ST depressions and TWI. Repeat EKGs have improved. CTA negative for PE. We continued aspirin 81, atorva 80. We held his beta blocker in the setting of bradycardia to ___. It was deemed that he not need his metoprolol. Patient was also not candidate a for cath lab given bleeding. #Anemia: The patient presented with subacute to acute H/H drop since prior admission. Given history of GIB and questionable history of coffee ground emesis, there was a concern for UGIB. However, clinical history does not support GIB as the sole etiology of his anemia; TIPS should have decompressed gastric varices, which are grade I and should not be bleeding at any rate. Luminal GI bleed unlikely to cause this degree of Hgb drop given no significant bloody output. CTA negative for RP bleed, however notable for persistent esophageal and gastric varices as well as ascites. Given concern for variceal hemorrhage he was started on PPI and octreotide gtt as well as Ceftriaxone for GIB in a cirrhotic patient. His H/H stabilized and he was transferred to the floor. Due to concern for coronary ischemia in the context of anemia, he was transfused 2 units of blood on ___, 1 on ___ and 1 on ___. His octreotide was stopped given that he was hemodynamically stable and he completed 7 days of ceftriaxone. Pt underwent ___ embolectomy without complications, incisino site was clean/dry with stabilizing H/H after procedure.</s>

I called the nursing home, and spoke to the nurse who saw her today but she was not able to provide me with any insight regarding her clinical status and level of functioning before this. It appears that yesterday (___) in pm, pt developed a fever to 100.6 F axillary. She was noted to be nonverbal, have heavy oral secretions, and to be in respiratory distress. RNs initially paged an NP on call, who prescribed a scopolamine patch. However, her distress persisted despite the patch and vigorous suctioning, and eventually decision was made to transfer pt back to ___. ___. However, for unclear reasons, EMS brought pt here. In transit, pt developed hypoxia and required NRM. She was quickly seen by respiratory therapy here, who noted "an intermittent but strong cough" and ability to partially clear airway. They suctioned "a large amount of thick, yellow sputum from upper oropharynx, after which pt resumed quiet breathing". Neurology was then consulted emergently. Radiology showed Pulmonary vascular engorgement. Radiology showed 1. Large late acute or subacute infarct in the right middle cerebral artery territory with lateral occipital involvement; the latter may be related to a fetal PCA or other arterial variation.

She lives in an elderly home and was to at first be transferred to ___ (from where she had originally been discharged few days prior following the discovery of a large new stroke). In the ED, she received some gentle suctioning which relieved her tachypnea in the ED. Labs showed a WBC of 9.5 and a urinary tract infection, and she received one dose of treatment with ceftriaxone. She sustained an allergic reaction to this medication, with stridor, facial and tongue swelling. A repeat CXR was no different from the admission CXR, and simply showed "pulmonary vascular engorgement". Her presumed anaphylactic reaction was addressed aggressively with the administration of nebulizer treatments and one dose of methylprednisolone and diphenhydramine. She was switched to bactrim DS for a few days, but then her urine culture sensitivities identified the growth of Proteus that was resistant to multiple agents including bactrim and cephalosporins. Given her allergy and the sensitivity results, we discussed with ID team and she was switched to AZTREONAM. A repeat UA was checked while on this medication and showed little by way of signs of UTI. The last dose of this medication should be on ___. For the delivery of long term antibiotics, a PICC line was placed. Of note, blood cultures drawn at the time of ED visit grew out GPCs, and so she was initiated on vancomycin. However, these returned as coagulase negative staph, and so the patient's vancomycin was discontinued. A NCHCT done in the ED showed no new hemorrhage, but a combination of old strokes of various ages. While in the hospital, she was maintained on the remainder of her medications. We obtained further history from her son that she had been previously on warfarin and aspirin, but this caused difficulties with epistaxis and serious cutaneous bruising. She had been actually off of aspirin prior to her most recent stroke, and had recently been started. From the neurological perspective, given her recent stroke, active atrial fibrillation and previous history of bleeding, we decided on continuing an antiplatelet agent. Her son, ___, was updated on the day of discharge and he agreed with this plan. While in house, she sustained no further allergic reactions. She had one episode of AF RVR which improved with beta blockade. Her HR on discharge was in the 90-110 range, and so she was started on a low dose of metoprolol for rate control. Her blood sugars remained on the higher side (200-270) while in house, likely related to the administration of dextrose containing agents (aztreonam), her current infection (UTI) and non-diabetic TF administration. The latter was switched to Glucerna 1.0 one day prior to discharge. Transitional issues: - Please have the patient follow up with Dr. ___ the ___ of Stroke Neurology.

Initial UA consistent with UTI, for which she was started on empiric meropenem. ___ of 3.0 on admission rapidly resolved to baseline of 1.3 on ___. Active Issues # Hypoxic respiratory failure Multifactorial in nature. Has COPD, chronic diastolic CHF, and OSA. Likely contributions from exacerbation of ___ w/ mild pulmonary edema in setting of reduced torsemide dose upon last discharge, as well as accumulation of opioid metabolites in setting of reduced CrCl. Her pre-intubation gas reflected acute-on-chronic respiratory acidosis, and her post-intubation gas was much improved. Additionally, she was agitated and non-complaint with home O2, worsening her hypoxia. She was extubated ___ without complication. Post-extubation she was intermittently confused but at her baseline per collateral conversations. Per conversation with ___ staff, Mrs ___ is extremely ___ with oxygen at her facility, and refuses to wear her CPAP at night. She was subsequently transferred to the medicine ward where hypoxia continued to improve and she was titrated to home O2 (2L NC). She did refuse CPAP on the floor but had no recurrent hypoxia. # Encephalopathy Likely secondary hypercarbia with pre-intubation ABG reflecting acute respiratoy acidosis. Other contributors include accumulation of opioid metabolites in setting of acute kidney injury which is all exacerbated by baseline dementia. Negative CT Head in ED. Opioids were held during hospitalization and mental status improved to baseline.

Globular, enlarged heart consistent with pericardial effusion. Minimal pericardial air consistent with recent pericardiocentesis. Radiology showed The left-sided pacemaker and wires are unchanged. Drain device over the left heart border is unchanged. The loculated left basilar pneumothorax mentioned previously has resolved. Heart size is enlarged and stable. There is minimal pulmonary edema. CT CHEST W/CONTRAST showed 1. Interval improvement of pericardial effusion. 2. Interval increased pleural effusions, small left, moderate right, with associated basal atelectasis. 3. Upper lobe predominant centrilobular emphysema. 4. Unchanged right middle lobe nodules. Radiology showed Left-sided pacemaker and pericardial drain are unchanged in position. There is unchanged cardiomegaly. There has been development of a left retrocardiac opacity. There are small bilateral pleural effusions. There is no overt pulmonary edema. No pneumothoraces are seen. Radiology showed There has been placement of an endotracheal tube whose tip is 3.7 cm above the carina, appropriately sited. The left-sided pacemaker and pericardial drain are unchanged position. There is unchanged cardiomegaly. There are no pneumothoraces. There is an unchanged left retrocardiac opacity and small bilateral pleural effusions. No overt pulmonary edema is seen. CT HEAD W/O CONTRAST showed No acute intracranial process. CT with contrast or preferably MRI would be more sensitive for assessment of an intracranial infectious process.

Endotracheal tube, pericardial drain, left-sided pacemaker are unchanged position. There is a nasogastric tube whose tip and side port are below the GE junction. There is unchanged cardiomegaly. There is a persistent left retrocardiac opacity and small bilateral effusions. No pneumothoraces are seen. Radiology showed Evaluation of location of the endotracheal tube is difficult to assess due to the overlying catheters. There is a new catheter projecting over the neck, likely external to the patient, which limits evaluation. However the tip of the endotracheal tube appears to be 4 cm above the carina. If there is high concern, repeat imaging could be obtained with displacement of externa catheters around the expected location the endotracheal tube.
