She requires follow up with her primary care physician within two weeks for further evaluation. # FEVER: Patient presented with 2 weeks of intermittent fevers and fatigue x 2 weeks. Outpatient w/u included negative negative EBV abd lyme serologies. The symptoms were most likely c/w a rheumatologic or CTD given the fatigue, SI tenderness, and shoulder pain but could also be due to a viral illness. Given normal ECG and readily reproducible chest pain, acute cardiac process was unlikely. Infectious etiologies were also considered. She had an elevated ESR and CRP. She had a pelvic xray that was normal. She also had an HIV test sent that was pending at the time of discharge and later returned negative. She should see her primary care physician within two weeks to consider further evaluation. She remained afebrile and hemodynamically stable throughout her hospitalization. # MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN/Costochondritis: Given normal ECG and negative CTA, PE is unlikely. DDimer is sensitive but not specific so elevated DDimer in setting of normal CTA is reassuring. The normal ECG and negative trops argue against ACS.

Radiology showed Suboptimal evaluation of the left mid to lower lung due to overlying battery pack. If this is areas of high clinical concern, consider repeat with re-positioning of the patient. There are extremely low lung volumes. Right basilar atelectasis is seen. Blunting of the right costophrenic angle could be due to small pleural effusion. Gaseous distention of the stomach and possibly of the bowel. Radiology showed Gaseous distention of the stomach with mildly dilated air-filled loops of small bowel raise concern for a small bowel obstruction. Radiology showed Multiple mildly dilated fluid-filled loops of small bowel without clear transition point seen, which taper gradually, may be due to ileus, however, early or partial obstruction is not excluded. No free fluid or free air. Marked elevation of the right hemidiaphragm with overlying right basilar atelectasis. Right lower lobe consolidation may relate to atelectasis; however, an infectious component is not excluded. High-density material seen in the dependent portion of the gastric fundus, correlate with recent ingestion. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed As compared to the previous radiograph, the lung volumes continue to be low. Moderate atelectasis at both the left and the right lung bases. Moderate cardiomegaly, unchanged as compared to the previous image. Currently no evidence is seen of pneumonia or pulmonary edema. The patient has received the nasogastric tube. The course of the tube is unremarkable, the tip of the tube projects over the proximal parts of the stomach. The pacemaker is in unchanged position. Gastric overinflation, seen on the previous image, has substantially decreased. New right IJ line. AP radiograph of the chest was reviewed in comparison to prior study obtained the same day earlier. The right internal jugular line has been inserted with its tip most likely at the level of cavoatrial junction. The precise assessment is difficult given the substantial elevation of the right hemidiaphragm. To secure its position at the cavoatrial junction or above, it should be pulled back 3 cm. There is otherwise no substantial change in the cardiomediastinal appearance with the left mediastinal shift and substantial elevation of the right hemidiaphragm with adjacent bibasal areas of atelectasis. The NG tube tip is in the stomach. was done. Radiology showed Bimalleolar fractures unchanged in alignment. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed As compared to the previous radiograph, the nasogastric tube has been removed. The lung volumes remain extremely low and areas of friable extensive atelectasis are seen at both lung bases. There is no pulmonary edema and no larger pleural effusions are visualized. Mild cardiomegaly. Unchanged position of the left pectoral pacemaker. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed A small region of new opacification has developed at the lateral aspect of the right middle lobe. This could be early pneumonia. Lung volumes remain severely low, particularly the right lung above the elevated right hemidiaphragm which obscures a substantially consolidated right lower lobe, suffering from collapse or pneumonia P the condition of the left lower lobe is similar and. All of the basal pulmonary abnormalities have developed since ___. Moderate cardiomegaly is stable. Pleural effusions are presumed, but not substantial. Right internal jugular line ends close to the inferior cavoatrial junction. Transvenous atrial biventricular pacer defibrillator leads are continuous from the left pectoral generator, and unchanged. There is no pneumothorax. CT CHEST W/O CONTRAST showed 1. Diffuse lung disease characterized by ground glass, reticulation and traction bronchiectasis, with localized hyperdense opacity in the right lung base. The latter is strongly suggestive of amiodarone lung toxicity in the setting of a hyperdense liver. The more diffuse findings may also be due to drug toxicity, although coexisting infection or edema is 1possible. 2. Cardiomegaly with enlarged left atrium suggesting mitral regurgitation. Marked atherosclerotic calcification including the coronary arteries. 3. Calcified splenic artery aneurysm, stable since ___. 4. Elevated right hemidiaphragm. 5. Right PICC malpositioned in right internal jugular vein as documented on recent CXR of ___. NOTIFICATION: ___ discussed findings with Dr ___ on ___ 30 minutes after interpretation. Radiology showed No significant excursion of the right hemidiaphragm following sniff test, suggestive of diaphragmatic paralysis/dysfunction. CHEST (PA AND LAT) showed As compared to the previous radiograph, the previously malpositioned PICC line in the left jugular vein has been pulled back. However, on today's examination, the PICC line appears to project over the right axillary region. The line should be completely withdrawn and repositioned. The previous right internal jugular vein catheter was removed. There is unchanged mild cardiomegaly at lower lung volumes. These low lung volumes are essentially caused by an elevation of the right hemidiaphragm, better appreciated on the lateral than on the frontal radiograph. No current evidence of larger pleural effusions, pulmonary edema, or pneumonia. Unchanged pacemaker leads and left pectoral pacemaker generator. The patient was diagnosed with SEPTICEMIA NOS, ACUTE RESPIRATORY FAILURE, SEVERE SEPSIS , SEPTIC SHOCK, ACCIDENT NOS, URIN TRACT INFECTION NOS. The patient was treated with CVL placement. At the time of discharge, the patient had PRIMARY: Amiodarone-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis Interstitial Lung Disease SECONDARY: Systolic Congestive Heart Failure, Atrial Fibrillation.

The patient expressed readiness for discharge. [/INST] </s><s>PRIMARY REASON FOR HOSPITALIZATION ================= ___ y/o F with a PMHs significant for HTN, HLD, Afib on coumadin, sCHF, cardiomyopathy with recent EF 35% and recent admission here s/p fall with ankle fracture who presented from rehab with respiratory distress, hypotension and likely urosepsis. She was treated for urosepsis with ceftriaxone. Her shortness of breath was likely amiodarone toxicity in combination with other steroid-responsive interstitial lung process. She will require further diagnostic workup as an outpatient with pulmonology. Active Issues ================= # Respiratory Distress Patient has had severely decreased lung volumes ever since ___ on imaging. Initially she was admitted in respiratory distress and required BIPAP in the ED; however, soon after arrival to the MICU she was weaned to shovel mask and then nasal cannula. Initial differential for cause was unclear and included sepsis vs. flash pulmonary edema vs. pneumonia. She continued to do well until ___ when she acutely decompensated and required BIPAP once again. Etiology was initially unclear and neurology was consulted and there was no evidence of neuromuscular disease. She was then successfully diuresed and was able to be weaned back to shovel mask. High resolution CT chest on ___ showed pulmonary fibrosis consistent with amiodarone toxicity. Thus, amiodarone was discontinued and patient initiated on steroids. She received high dose IV solumedrol for 2 days and improved dramatically. Oxygen was weaned to 2L NC on transfer to the floor. Plan for prednisone taper per Dr. ___. Vasculitis and rheumatologic work-up was initiated and negative to date on discharge. She will followup with pulmonology for further diagnosis and management. Prednisone will continue at 60mg per day for 2 weeks then taper by 10mg weekly until 20mg daily. This dose will continue until pulmonary followup. Atovaquone for PCP prophylaxis, omeprazole for GI prophylaxis, and Ca/VitD for BMD loss prophylaxis were initiated prior to discharge. # Weakness Appears to have had a decline in overall strength from a baseline of weakness (was able to walk a block, stand in the shower several weeks ago) for unclear reasons, possibly due to deconditioning in the setting of recovering from ankle fracture. There is concern for an underlying neurological process that may contribute to respiratory weakness; however neurology has been consulted and does not feel there is any neuromuscular disease contributing given that her CK nml and she has no focal neurological deficits. # Urosepsis The patient was admitted from rehab with WBC of 15.6, tachypnea and hypotension, fevers to 100.2 in the ED, ultimately requiring pressor support and BIPAP in the ED thus meeting criteria for septic shock. She initially had a lactate of 3.8 in the ED which then downtrended to 2.4 after 1500cc of IVF. Source of infection initially felt to be pna given new onset cough vs. urinary given dirty UA in the ED. CXR done in the ED of poor quality but could not exclude pneumonia, although R lower lobe consolidation could represent atelectasis. She was on norepinephrine to maintain MAP>65 and was slowly weaned of pressors (off since ___ with gentle fluid rescuitation given hhere severe CHF. She was empirically treated with Vancomycine and cefepime. Urine culture eventually grew pan sensitive E coli and she was narrowed to Ceftriaxone and completed a 10-day course. #Leukocytosis Ms. ___ initially presented with leukocytosis with bandemia in the setting of urosepsis. This resolved with abx. Her WBC count rose while on steroids and was felt to be attributed to this. No focal s/s of infection, no diarrhea, no fevers, and stable VS on discharge. A followup CBC is requested after discharge at the receiving facility, and listed on the page 1. # Ileus vs Obstruction Patient admitted with mild diffuse abdominal pain and tenderness. KUB in the ED was concerning for obstruction (although she was having bowel movements). Given initial concern for intra-abdominal process, patient was treated with Vanc/zosyn while in the ED. Ct abd/pelvis concerning for obstruction vs. ileus, no free fluid. Surgery was consulted and felt that her presentation was most consistent with ileus ___ urosepsis as above. Given low suspicion for intra-abdominal infection and that this is likely an ileus, will not continue zosyn. It was unclear if this was truly a new process, as she appeared quite distended on prior recent exams and her stomach is full on CT abd/pelvis. There was some concern for outlet obstruction or gastroparesis. An NGT was placed for decompresison and her symptoms improved with zofran prn nausea medication. Eventually NGT was removed and she was transitioned to a full diet. # ___ on CKD Patient admitted with Cr of 2.7 up from baseline of around 1.3-1.4. This was most likely ___ pre-renal etiology, as her cr improved back to baseline with fluid rescusitation. # Hyponatremia Patient with new hyponatremia of 129 upon presentation from prior in the low-mid ___. Given septic picture as above, hyponatremia was most likely due to hypovolemic hyponatremia (although differential diagnosis for hyponatremia is quite broad) as sodium quickly returned to baseline. # ___ At home patient is on Aspirin, Lisinopril, Spironolactone and Torsemide. Medications were initially held due to septic picture, but were restarted and well tolerated. # Afib on coumadin Patient known to have afib and is on coumadin at home. Home medications include coumadin, amiodarone and metoprolol. Home dose metoprolol was initially held due to sepsis. INR elevated upon admission, so coumadin was initially held. As above, amiodarone was stopped on ___ given concerning for toxicity leading to pulmonary fibrosis and metoprolol restarted on ___, with dose increased. She remained A-V paced thereafter. # L ankle fracture Patient was recently admitted here under orthopedics for a L ankle fracture s/p fall which was managed non-surgically. Orthopedics saw her while she was hospitalized. She had repeat imaging and a cast was placed on ___. She will need follow-up with Dr. ___. # Insomnia Will continue home dose zolpidem with careful holding parameters.

CT A/P performed showed ? of intermittent intesussception, although clinically his pain is greatly relieved when he has a bowel movement, so it is likely related to constipation. He is discharged with numerous PRN laxatives and will need these titrated to ensure he has regular BMs. # Cancer-related pain He has been started on standing dilaudid with additional doses PRN. # Prostate Abnormality on CT: Patient likely has metastatic prostate cancer with PSA of 69 and lytic bone lesions. This is unlikely to be life limiting given the advanced state of his lung cancer and he is on no treatment for this. #Protein-calorie malnutrition Patient is cachectic in the setting of his cancer. He is on continuous nepro tube feeds at 50 mL/hr per PEG tube. # Advanced Non-small cell lung cancer: #GOALS OF CARE This patient has terminal cancer with life expectancy is likely less than ___ months.

Her blood cultures eventually grew coag negative staph bacteremia. Given her hx. of immunocompromise, she was initially started on vancomycin with vanc locks. The infectious disease doctors were ___. Pt. remained afebrile, without a leukocytosis, without further evidence of growth on cultures. As such, this blood cx. was thought to be a contaminant. Pt. was discontinued off vancomycin. Pt's Hgb was noted to trend down from 8 to 6. She was transfused two units of specially matched blood from the ___ Cross given her extensive history of blood antibodies. She was discharged with close outpatient follow-up. ACTIVE ISSUES ============== # Coag Negative Staph Bacteremia: Pt's port was mismanaged at rehab facility. Port was left accessed with old needle in place. As such, pt. had outpatient blood cultures with returned initially with gram positive cocci. For concern for bacteremia, pt. was admitted for further work-up. Given immunosuppression, pt. was started on daptomycin (given hx. of VRE colonization) and later transitioned to IV vanc with vanc locks per ID consultation. Blood cultures later turned coag negative staph. This was thought to be a contaminant as no other blood cultures returned positive. She lacked any infectious symptoms on admission. Podiatry was consulted who felt that her healing left hallux amputation site was without infection. She was discharged off antibiotics. # Autoimmune hemolytic anemia with exacerbation: Pt. is known to have autoimmune hemolytic anemia, s/p splenectomy, on chronic prednisone. Her H/H downtrended on admission. She remained hemodynamically stable. After speaking with blood bank, a sample of the pt's blood was sent to the ___ Cross. 2 units of matched blood were found. She received 2 units of pRBCs without issue. Her H/H remained stable. Her hemolysis labs were noted to be near their usual baseline or improved. # Hyponatremia: Pt. noted to have hyponatremia. On further evaluation, it seems pt. had some nausea, vomiting, and poor PO intake in the several days leading up to hospitalization. This in addition to her diuretic therapy likely resulted in hypovolemic hyponatremia. Diuretics temporarily held and PO intake improved. Hyponatremia slowly resolved with improved PO intake and diuretics were resumed. # ___ on CKD: Pt. with increased creatinine to 2.2 from 1.5. Likely pre-renal azotemia as pt. improved as she reached euvolemia. # Peripheral Vascular Disease complicated by Left Hallux Arterial Ulceration/Gangrene status-post Left Peroneal Artery Angioplasty and Left Hallux Amputation: Pt. with amputation on ___. Podiatry evaluated the site and felt that there was no active infection on admission. Also was felt that her wound would likely not heal without improved arterial supply to the foot. Pt. was encouraged to present to her already scheduled outpatient vascular work-up. She was continued on atorvastatin and clopidogrel. #HTN: Pt. with some low-normal BPs on admission. As such, her hydralazine was decreased to 25mg PO TID. CHRONIC ISSUES ================ #Diastolic Heart Failure: Pt's torsemide were temporarily held given hypovolemia but were later resumed. Discharge weight below. # Type II Diabetes Mellitus: ISS while in house. # Atrial Fibrillation / Atrial Flutter status-post Atrial Appendage Ligation: Pt. not candidate for warfarin given previous life-threatening GI bleeds in the past. She was continued on metoprolol for rate control. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES ======================= # Discharge Weight: 58.2kg # Repeat Blood Cultures: Per ID, pt. should have repeat blood cultures off port in ___ days from ___ to ensure no further growth of coag negative staph. # Wound Dressing: Continue daily wet to dry dressing changes # Repeat Labs: Pt. should have repeat CBC and Chem 7 to check for worsening anemia and hyponatremia ___ days following discharge. # Recent Amputation: Pt. should be non weight bearing on left forefoot. She can be full weight bearing on left heel. When walking, she should use forefoot offloading shoe. # Nonhealing foot: Podiatry evaluated her foot on hospitalization. no concern for infection at this time. There is continued concern that the blood supply to her left foot is limited. She should follow-up with vascular as scheduled. # Port Care: Port should be deaccessed at this time. She will require a port flush ___ weeks from ___. # BP Regimen: Hydralazine reduced from 50 TID to 25 TID at discharge as pt's BP was within normal limits in the setting of averaging ___ doses of 50mg hydralazine a day during her hospital stay. # Code: Full, confirmed # Emergency Contact: Emergency contact is ___ (daughter, HCP) @ ___ </s>

He was afebrile but his leukocytosis and loose stools were felt to be concerning for c. dificile colitis and he was started on broad spectrum antibiotics including coverage for c dificile with PO flagyl as well as cefepime and vancomycin. On HD2 formal ID consult was obtained. He had initial difficulties having a bowel movement and thus c. dificile amplification assay was unable to be performed however urine and blood cultures remained negative so empiric treatment for c. dificile was continued. ACS were consulted and recommended serial KUB to assess for risk of toxic megacolon, this was done and was normal. On HD3 ID recommended taking off cefepime and vancomycin which was done. His WBC continued to trend down. He complained of slight dizziness and nausea which was self limited. On HD4, complained of some right lower extremity pain. Given recent surgery lower extremity venous ultrasounds were obtained to rule out DVT and were negative. Repeat KUB showed some colonic dilation which was within normal limits per radiology.

Imaging studies performed at outside hospital were consistent with right popliteal artery occlusion, for which purpose he max started on a heparin drip and transferred to our institution for further evaluation and management. Decision was made to take the patient to the operating room for angiography/angioplasty. Findings were consistent with right popliteal artery occlusion with distal reconstitution of anterior and posterior tibial arteries. A ___ catheter was placed and initiation of lysis was performed (see Operative Note for further details). Patient was taken back to the ward after a brief uneventful stay in the PACU. After overnight lysis, he was taken back to the operating room for lysis check. A patent popliteal artery with 2-vessel runoff through AT and ___ confirmed success of the lysis treatment. All hardware was removed. A ___ Perclose was placed for hemostasis, and the patient returned to the floor after a brief PACU stay. Heparin drip was continued and warfarin therapy started. Neuro: The patient was alert and oriented throughout hospitalization; pain was managed appropriately with oral medications. A noticeable improvement in pain was reported after the procedure. CV: The patient remained stable from a cardiovascular standpoint; vital signs were routinely monitored. Pulmonary: The patient remained stable from a pulmonary standpoint; vital signs were routinely monitored. Good pulmonary toilet, early ambulation and incentive spirometry were encouraged throughout hospitalization. Findings on CT consistent with non-opacified vessels in right lower lobe were concerning -even with low suspicion- for pulmonary embolism. Given patient's reassuring clinical status, further studies were not pursued. GI/GU/FEN: The patient's diet was advanced sequentially to a regular diet, which was well tolerated. Patient's intake and output were closely monitored. Urine output on POD#1 from initial surgery was noted to be grossly bloody, which was attributed to the recent administration of thrombolytics. Given persistence of hematuria, a Urology consult was requested on POD#2 and heparin drip was discontinued. Recommendation was made to start continuous bladder irrigation overnight, urine analysis and cytology, as well as a CT urography (refer to Reports for details). Findings were reassuring, although an unusual density within the bladder (likely a clot) prompted recommendation for outpatient follow-up. Hematuria cleared and CBI was stopped after overnight treatment. Three-way Foley catheter was removed and patient voided with no issues.

This morning he began to notice a headache and presented to ___ where a CT of the head showed a left sided frontal mass (as described below). He was given one dose of 10mg IV decadron and transferred to ___ for further work-up of primary vs. metastatic disease. Radiology showed 1. Predominantly rim enhancing lesion in the left frontal lobe as described with stable right sided midline shift. Differential considerations would include high-grade glioma, metastasis, resolving hematoma, and less likely infection. Additional small enhancing lesion in the right temporal lobe suggests metastasis as leading differential. 2. No acute infarct. Radiology showed No acute intrathoracic process. Linear density in the left upper lung likely represents scarring. Radiology showed 1. Stable peripheral enhancing lesion in the left frontal lobe as described with stable right-sided midline shift. Additional stable small enhancing lesion in the right temporal lobe. Differential considerations remain metastasis, high-grade glioma, and less likely infection. 2. Irregularly shaped enhancing mass in the right retromolar trigone extending into the mandible/bone marrow suspicious for an additional metastatic lesion. Radiology showed Left frontal rim-enhancing mass with increased vascularity causing vasogenic edema and mass effect as described above. Given the second smaller focus of abnormal enhancement in the right temporal lobe, the possibilities for diagnosis should include metastatic lesion as well as primary brain tumors. Radiology showed 1. Suprahilar mass in the left upper lobe with pathologic enlargement of hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes concerning for primary lung malignancy with nodal metastases. 2. No evidence of distant metastatic disease in the abdomen or pelvis. 3. Endotracheal tube with the tip 14 mm above the carina and may be retracted slightly. Radiology showed Status post left frontal craniotomy and mass resection with postsurgical changes as expected along with a 9 mm focus of left frontal white matter hemorrhage, presumed to be related to the recent procedure. Radiology showed 1. Status post left frontal craniotomy with resection of dominant left frontal mass.

She was in her normal state of health until last year when she had a mechanical fall. She had no pain after this fall, but about one month later she developed pain in her left hip (which she describes as deep in her groin, but also over the area of the greater trochanter). This pain radiated down to her foot. It is intermittent, coming in paroxysms, which last minutes to an hour. Over the next several months, the pain increased in severity, and became incredibly disabling. She is no longer able to drive, and no longer able to work (she had worked as a home health aid for elderly adults). It also would wake her up from sleep. During this period, she lost about 15 pounds, though tells me she was eating normally. She denied night sweats and fevers, though had rigors when her pain would flare. She has had a fair amount of medical work up for this pain. I have requested records, but per patient: trial of muscle relaxants and tramadol, hip joint injection (3 days of relief), MRI of her spine, and then a "back surgery" for a diagnosis of sciatica (did not make any difference), and rehab stay. Despite all of this, her pain continued to worsen. Last week, she went back to her PCP who performed an x-ray of her hip. Two days ago, her doctor called her and informed her that the x-ray showed osteosarcoma and told her to present to ___. CT-guided bone biopsy showed Technically successful CT-guided biopsy of a left proximal femoral lesion. MR HEAD W/O CONTRAST ___ MR HEAD showed 1. Study is mildly degraded by motion. Additionally, study was terminated before completion due to patient inability to tolerate exam. 2. Within limits of study, no evidence of hemorrhage, mass effect or acute infarction. 3. Evaluation for metastatic disease is limited secondary to lack of postcontrast images. If continued concern for intracranial metastatic disease, consider repeat exam when patient can tolerate study. 4. Global volume loss and probable microangiopathic changes. CT abdomen pelvis showed 1. No evidence of metastatic disease in the abdomen or pelvis. 2. Cortical irregularity of the left femoral neck and greater trochanter is only partially evaluated on current exam and is better characterized on prior MR hip performed ___. 3. Please refer to separate report of CT chest for description of the intrathoracic findings. CT CHEST W/CONTRAST showed 1. Innumerable small lung nodules measuring up to 8 mm in the left lower lobe concerning for metastases. No primary lesion identified. No lymphadenopathy. Findings could represent metastases from the newly identified femoral lesion or from previously resected primary lung cancer given postsurgical changes in the right lower lobe. 2. Please refer to separate report from concurrent CT abdomen pelvis for description of findings below the diaphragm. FEMUR (AP AND LAT) LEFT showed Large lucent lesion of the intratrochanteric region of the left proximal femur extending into the femoral neck and subtrochanteric region. There is likely areas of endosteal scalloping, though the degree to which is difficult to ascertain on x-ray. Contrast enhanced mass infection protocol MRI is recommended for further evaluation Radiology showed Large aggressive appearing mass involving the left femoral neck, intratrochanteric and subtrochanteric regions of the left proximal femur. Possible etiologies include metastatic disease, myeloma, lymphoma, or a primary bone tumor. There is endosteal scalloping along the mass with apparent cortical breakthrough and extraosseous extension along the posterior aspect of the distal femoral neck, posterior greater trochanter/intertrochanteric region, and posterior subtrochanteric region concerning for increased risk of pathologic fracture. Orthopedic oncologic evaluation should be considered. Two uterine masses are identified, one of which indents upon the endometrial canal. These may represent fibroids, however other etiologies cannot be excluded. Additionally there is blood products within the endometrial canal which measures up to 5 mm in thickness. Pelvic ultrasound is recommended for further evaluation. 1.6 cm hyperintense lesion of the inferior pole of the right kidney is partially imaged on localizer sequence only. This is likely to represent a renal cyst. Correlation with prior abdominal or renal imaging is recommended. If no prior imaging is available, nonemergent renal ultrasound is recommended for further evaluation. RECOMMENDATION(S): As above.

This is more prominent over time when comparing to multiple films over the past few days. There is pulmonary vascular redistribution most marked on the right and a patchy area of alveolar infiltrate in the left lower lung. It is unclear how many of the pulmonary findings are due to asymmetric pulmonary edema or if an infectious infiltrate is present in the right lower lobe CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed No change. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed ET tube tip is 6 cm above the carinal. Left PICC line tip is at the level of lower SVC. NG tube tip passes below the diaphragm most likely terminating in the stomach. Heart size and mediastinum are unchanged as well as there is no change in large right pleural effusion and associated atelectasis as well as hilar prominence.

CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Left PICC line tip is at the level of cavoatrial junction. Heart size and mediastinum are stable. There is interval progression of pulmonary edema with extensive opacification of the right lung that might represent either progression of pulmonary edema or worsening of infectious process. Tracheostomy is in place. Bilateral pleural effusions are moderate to large, unchanged VENOUS DUP UPPER EXT UNILATERAL showed Noncompressibility, central intraluminal filling defect and absent color flow of the right cephalic vein near the antecubital fossa, consistent with a superficial vein thrombosis. No evidence of propagation or deep vein thrombosis. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Substantial improvement in what was very asymmetric pulmonary opacification over just 48 hrs suggests this was largely pulmonary edema. Moderate right pleural effusion is smaller and the pulmonary vascular and mediastinal engorgement have also improved. Left PIC line ends in the upper right atrium, all approximately 3 cm below the estimated location of the superior cavoatrial junction. CHEST (PORTABLE AP) showed Large right pleural effusion increased, probably responsible for leftward mediastinal shift. Right upper lobe and left lung grossly clear. Heart size normal. Left PIC line ends close to or just beyond the superior cavoatrial junction. No pneumothorax. Tracheostomy tube midline. BILAT LOWER EXT VEINS showed No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right or left lower extremity veins. Limited visibility of the veins below the popliteal vein. Within these confines, no evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the right or left lower extremity veins.
