Patient had 48.5 lbs of fluid removed via a combination of multiple large volume paracentesis and diuretics, and further diuresis was limited by orthostasis, for which midodrine therapy was initiated. A screening EGD showed no gastro-esophageal varices. He did not display any signs of hepatic encephalopathy. He had obvious protein-energy malnutrition, for which Ensure Enlive with breakfast, lunch, and dinner was recommended. Given his elevated BNP on admission, an echocardiogram was ordered which showed an EF of 35-40% with diffuse LV dysfunction, suggesting a global cardiomyopathic process such as alcohol cardiomyopathy. Cardiology evaluated patient and deferred catheterization and recommended an outpatient ischemic/viability workup with possibily a cardiac MRI. Given his lack of elevated JVP, we tried to initiate beta blocker therapy but coreg 3.125 BID was poorly tolerated as he developed symptomatic orthostasis. </s>

CHEST PAIN Given his known hx of CAD, pt's severe chest pain on admission was concerning for unstable angina. Though his EKG did not show any clear e/o ischemia and his cardiac biomarkers were negative, he was treated empirically for ACS w/ ASA, Atorvastatin 80 and Fondaparinux. Aortic Dissection was considered given the "tearing quality" of his chest pain but his mediastinum was not widened on CXR, and his vital signs remained stable. Chest pain was initially treated with IV dilaudid and a nitroglycerin drip, but pt became hypotensive requiring IVF, so the nitroglycerin was discontinued, and further pain control was achieved with IV Dilaudid alone. Notably, pain relented soon after being transferred to the medicine ward. Given his hx of extensive CAD, he was continued on Fondaparinux anticoagulation pending cardiac catheterization, which revealed stable coronary artery disease, not requiring percutaneous coronary intervention, and no e/o vasospasm. LAD with proximal tubular 40% stenosis; mid-LAD 50% lesion between S1/D1 and S2/D2; first diagonal with 50% lesion proximally; 45% stenosis proximally in the long modest caliber fourth obtuse marginal; patent stent in the major fifth obtuse marginal/LPL; RCA with 20% proximal stenosis and 20% distal stenosis; PDA with diffuse plaquing to 40%. Given concern for aortic dissection he had supravalvular aortography done in the catheterization lab which did not show any e/o dissection. Initiation of isosorbide mononitrate or caclium channel blocker was considered, but his blood pressure (90s-100s systolic) did not permit during this admission. Since the findings on cardiac catheterization did not require any intervention, he was informed of the importance of managing his risk factors for CAD.

[/INST] </s><s>Mr. ___ is a ___ year-old gentleman with HFpEF, CKD, AF on warfarin, s/p PPM for sick sinus who presented with dyspnea on exertion and significant edema consistent with a diastolic HF exacerbation, with concern for recurrent atrial fibrillation as precipitating factor. #Acutely Decompensated Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: LVEF = 50%. Unclear precipitant given non-ischemic EKG with TnT elevation in proportion to renal dysfunction and no history of medication non-compliance or dietary indiscretion. Pt in atrial fibrillation, possibly contributing to exacerbation, though his rates were generally in the ___ to 110s. On admission he was significantly volume overloaded with 3+ pitting edema to thighs and sacrum. Admission weight was 86.9 kg compared to discharge weight of 88.2 on ___ (although the latter likely did NOT represent his true dry weight). He was started on lasix gtt upon admission and titrated up to 20 mg/h. He was resistant to diuresis and dobutamine gtt 2.5 was added on ___. With inotropic support he diuresed effectively. Patient was cardioverted x2 from AF into NSR (see below). A pyrophosphate scan performed on ___ to r/o amyloidosis as the etiology of his heart failure but this was negative. Given his mod-severe TR and MR on prior TTE (___), and the need for dobutamine to diurese, a right heart cath (___) was performed to evaluate for RV dysfunction and the possibility of high output heart failure in the setting of a known right femoral AV fistula (iatrogenic from prior caths at that site). The RHC revealed normal right and left heart filling pressures and normal cardiac output (no evidence of high output state). The patient was successfully weaned off dobutamine following the cessation of Lasix and cardioversion. He was transitioned to torsemide 40mg BID and remained euvolemic on PO diuretics at discharge. Admission weight: 86.9 kg Discharge weight: 66.3 kg #Atrial fibrillation with normal ventricular rates: HRs ___ in the hospital, and pt was asymptomatic. Pt previously on dofetilide but this was discontinued prior to admission ___ renal failure. He was admitted on carvedilol but beta blockers were discontinued during this admission for hypotension. INR was therapeutic at 2.3 on admission. He was placed on heparin gtt for better anticoagulation control in preparation for cardioversion and cath, and then bridged back to warfarin, again with a therapeutic INR on discharge. The patient was amiodarone loaded and then cardioverted on ___. He maintained NSR for several days but then on ___ he had recurrence of his atrial fibrillation. He was continued on Amiodarone 200 mg PO/NG DAILY and re-cardioverted on ___. At time of this second cardioversion his rhythm pre-shock was actually atrial flutter with 2:1 block (rather than atrial fibrillation). Post-shock on ___ he, again, was in normal sinus rhythm. EP recommended continuing amiodarone 200mg PO qday (no change in anti-arrhythmic therapy). Discharged on a warfarin dose of 7.5mg daily with an INR of 2.8. He monitors his own INR at home and calls in the results to his PCP who manages his warfarin dosing. #Valvulopathies: moderate to severe MR and TR noted on TTE in ___ in the setting of significant volume overload. It is less likely this represents a primary structural event but rather was secondary to dilation of the valvular rings while overloaded given the normal filling pressures observed on right heart cath when dry. A follow-up TTE while dry could be performed as an outpatient if warranted. #Acute on Chronic Kidney Disease, Stage 4: Pt was on dialysis through ___ and ___ subsequent to an episode of ATN precipitated by volume overload after L shoulder arthropathy. His last HD was ___ and the HD line was removed ___. as it was no longer needed. He was able to diurese effectively on lasix gtt with inotropic support and then on PO diuretic after the dobutamine was discontinued. Cr prior to shoulder surgery and ATN was 0.9-1.1, Cr in house ranged from 2.5-3.2, with most values prior to discharge between 2.8 and 3.2. His renal function changed little during diuresis, with his Cr hovering around 3, and this likely represents a new baseline for him. He will follow up with nephrology as an outpatient for ongoing management. CHRONIC ISSUES: ================ # Coronary artery disease s/p CABG: No chest discomfort or angina equivalent was noted with no ischemic changes seen on EKG. TnT elevation in proportion with renal dysfunction. Pt was transitioned to rosuvastatin 20mg PO QPM and continued on aspirin 81 mg daily. All beta blockers were discontinued ___ hypotension and not needed for rate control (nor for heart failure since he has preserved EF). # Diabetes Mellitus Type 2, controlled: Recent A1c 6.8%, and patient has stopped using glargine--uses a carbohydrate scale at home. Humalog sliding scale while in hospital and at discharge. # Macrocytic anemia/Thrombocytopenia: Chronic, followed by Dr. ___.

In summary, she had a negative CT on ___ and workup was otherwise negative. She continues to have a chronic left otitis, for which ENT follow up is recommended. # Flank/Back Pain/Abdominal Pain: Pt had normal lipase, LFTs, clean UA, negative urine cultures and legionella antigen, negative blood cultures, no leukocytosis; as such, UTI/pyelo or other infection as well pancreatitis both seemed unlikely. Her CT showed no evidence of compression fracture.

HOSPITAL COURSE BY PROBLEM #. Dyspnea, cough, and hypoxia. Given his risk factors of older age, severe obstructive disease, and failure of recent antimicrobial therapy, the patient was started on vancomycin and cefepime for pneumonia. PE was felt to be less likely given that the patient had no other signs or symptoms suggesting this (no chest pain, not tachycardia, no history of immobilization, Wells score of zero). A chest CT was obtained which showed increasing consolidation in the lingula and left upper lobe compared to prior CT, concerning for a worsening infection. The patient was continued on his home impratroprium and albuterol nebulizers. A cardiac etiology of his dyspnea was thought to be less likely given that he had no cardiac history, did not appear volume overloaded on exam, and recent normal LV and RV function on TTE from ___. His EKG on arrival was negative for acute ischemic changes, though troponin in ED slightly elevated to 0.02. His subsequent cardiac markers were negative and an AM EKG showed no acute changes. A urine legionella antigen was obtained and found to be negative. Beta-glucan and galactomannan were also checked and were found to be negative. Alpha-1 antitrypsin levels were also checked and were also pending at the time of discharge. The inpatient pulmonology team was consulted and recommended that he be discharged on IV vancomycin and cefepime and that he begin taking fluticasone with a spacer. The patient was discharged on IV vancomycin and cefepime; follow-up with his outpatient pulmonologist was being arranged by Dr. ___. #. Elevated troponin. The patient's troponin was elevated in the ED to 0.02, which was attributed to a hemolyzed specimen. His EKG showed no acute ischemic changes, and his cardiac markers were cycled and found to be negative x2. He was placed on telemetry overnight, which was discontinued the morning after a morning EKG showed no acute ischemic changes. The patient denied any chest pain throughout his admission. #Creatinine bump. On day four of his admission, the patient's serum creatinine bumped from 1.1 to 1.4. Urine electrolytes were consistent with an intrinsic renal process, likely contrast-induced (as he received a chest CT with contrast) vs. antibiotic-induced. The patient's AM and ___ doses of vancomycin were held for one day. His serum creatinine was monitored and remained stably elevated on the day of discharge. Upon discharge, the patient will have a serum creatinine check along with Vancomcyin trough checked upon discharge by ___ services; patient was provided with presciption for outpatient lab check. #. Hyperkalemia. On admission the patient was found to be hyperkalemic, withou acute EKG changes. An AM K was checked and found to be within normal limits. #. Hyponatremia Mild, asymptomatic. Thought to be secondary to poor PO intake versus SIADH in light of the patient's history of lung disease. Urine electrolytes were checked and found to be consistent with SIADH.

Patient underwent a renal biopsy, and repeat donor specific antibody testing, which revealed a > test MFI. Further, BK testing done at that time also showed an increasing BK viremia in both the serum and urine. Biopsy results included a multitude of findings, including an acute on chronic humoral rejection, with multiple crescenteric glomeruli. Further, in the background of his acute rejection was BK positivity on biopsy (SV40) as well. After much discussion regarding treatment options, it was thought that patient should be placed on high dose immunosuppression with both tacrolimus and MMF. With increasing immunosuppression, patient started to have increased hemolysis as well and thought to be ___ to tacrolimus microangiopathy. Peripheral smears did show ___ schistocytes/HPF. Per acute rejection guidelines, patient was initially started on plasmapheresis to remove donor specific antibodies, and was replaced full FFP instead of half albumin because of risks of bleeding with renal biopsy. Patient also was started on high dose steroids at that time, and during plasmapheresis sessions patient started to develop a cough (reported below). Given concerns for aspergillus, and the risk for invasive disease with higher immunosuppression, patient underwent plasmapheresis and was transitioned to an IVIG load of 2 grams, with lower immunosuppression. Tacrolimus was also discontinued in the setting of increased TMA with severely elevated levels ___ to initiation of voriconazole.

Patient eventually was transitioned to permanent dialysis, with loss of his graft function, and was transitioned to a regimen including low dose prednisone and MM sodium. . #ESRD s/p LURT : As described above, patient was transitioned to dialysis during hospital stay after acute humoral rejection. Patient underwent transplant evaluation for AVF, with vein mapping bilaterally, and scheduled to undergo AVF after hospital discharge. Plans for patient include home hemodialysis set up as well in the future. Patient was discharged with negative Hepatitis Serologies, and pending quantiferon gold for dialysis placement. . # Pneumonia: As indicated above, patient started to develop a cough during his plasmapheresis sessions, and initial imaging showed a possible cavitary lesion. Patient was started on broad spectrum antibiotics, however given concerns for invasive aspergillus in the setting of higher dosed immunosuppression for acute rejection, confirmatory testing with bronchoscopy was performed. Patient's BAL did not show any evidence, and no serologic evidence of fungi either. Patient was originally started on amphotericin given interactions of voriconazole with immunosuppression, however this was discontinued as suspicion was low after testing. Patient was continued on Zosyn for 7 day course, with resolution of cough and CT imaging showed resolution of cavitary lesion. . # Hypertension: Patient was up-titrated to labetolol 200 mg TID for better control as started to have both elevated diastolic and systolic pressures. Patient tolerated dose adjustment well. . # Chest Pain: Patient was found to have acute chest pain, with respiratory difficulty after bronchoscopy. He described this pain as chest pressure, and since no DVT prophylaxis as risk of bleeding with renal biopsy, initial concerns for PE. ABGs at that time were significant for a resppiratory alkalosis (pH 7.8, CO2 15). Patient underwent V/Q scan which showed low likelihood, and LENIs which were negative for DVT.

<s>[INST] <<SYS>> Act as a health expert <</SYS>> create brief hospital course of the following text: ___ year old Male with isolated plasmacytoma and spinal stenosis who presents with increasing back pain over several weeks and an acute delirium the morning of admission. The patient has had long-standing lumbar stenosis with chronic back pain for the past ___ years. He has also had a T12/L5 kyphoplasty approximately 2.5 months prior to admission. During this admission operation a lytic bone lesion at L3 was biopsied and found to be multiple myeloma. He had an x-ray of the lumbar spine which was reportedly negative for lytic lesions for lytic lesions in the ___ ED prior to transfer. Per his daughter, he is receiving XRT for his plasmacytoma and has completed 7 treatments. The morning of admission his daughter was called by the nursing home where he lives and was told he was acting somewhat withdrawn, and appeared groggy and which was an acute change from his baseline mental status. Per the daughter little workup was done at ___ in the ED and she believed that his pain was not being well controlled, so she requested tranfer to ___. Failure to thrive, weakness. No prior studies available for comparison. PA and lateral upright chest radiographs were reviewed. The patient is after median sternotomy, reason unclear since no evidence of CABG is definitely seen. Mediastinum is shifted to the left. Cardiac silhouette is difficult to assess due to obscuration of the left heart border by pleural effusion, partially layering and most likely partially loculated, moderate. There is left lower lobe opacity, most likely reflecting atelectasis, unclear if secondary to the effusion or due to other reasons. The right lung is essentially clear except for minimal atelectasis. Left upper lung is clear as well. No pneumothorax is seen. No evidence of pulmonary edema is present. Vertebroplasty of the lower thoracic vertebral body, most likely T11 is noted. Comparison with prior study is recommended. Otherwise, assessment of the patient with CT chest preferably with contrast for precise determination of left lower lobe and pleural effusion appearance might be considered. Findings submitted to Radiology Dashboard for communication of critical results by dr ___ on ___ at 1:50 pm was done. Radiology showed 1. Diffuse infiltration of the bone marrow of the lumbar spine, sacrum, and coccyx, likely by the known myeloma. Discrete expansile mass in the L3 spinous process involves the adjacent posterior paravertebral muscles and the overlying fascia, but does not extend into the spinal canal. No evidence of epidural or foraminal masses. 2. Superior endplate deformities at T12, L1, L2, and L5, without evidence of edema to suggest acute fractures. No retropulsion. 3. Abnormal signal in the presacral and pre-coccygeal space. An infiltrative soft tissue process cannot be excluded. Suggest further evaluation by contrast-enhanced CT or MRI of the pelvis. 4. Multilevel lumbar degenerative disease. Moderate-to-severe spinal canal stenosis at L4-5 with compression of the traversing L5 nerve roots. Narrowing of the subarticular recesses at L3-4, with abutment of the traversing L4 nerve roots. 5. Partially imaged cystic lesions in the kidneys. Recommend sonography for further evaluation. Radiology showed 1. No definite lytic lesions identified. Lucencies are seen within humeri, likely due to bone mineralization. If further evaluation is needed for a specific region, recommend further evaluation with MRI which is more sensitive to detect myelomatous lesions. 2. Cholelithiasis. Radiology showed 1. No evidence of hemorrhage or infarction. 2. Small vessel ischemic disease and age-related involution. Mental status changes in a patient with history of multiple myeloma and new loculated pleural effusion on chest radiograph. COMPARISON: Chest radiograph from ___. TECHNIQUE: Unenhanced MDCT of the chest was obtained from thoracic inlet to upper abdomen with subsequent 1.25- and 5-mm collimation. Axial images reviewed in conjunction with coronal and sagittal reformats. FINDINGS: Several mediastinal lymph nodes ranging up to 7 mm in the right lower paratracheal area, 6 mm in the prevascular area with no pathologically enlarged mediastinal, hilar or axillary lymph nodes seen. The aorta is normal in diameter. Main pulmonary artery is normal, 3.2 cm but the right pulmonary artery and left pulmonary arteries are enlarged up to 3.1 and 3 cm respectively that might reflect pulmonary hypertension. Extensive coronary calcifications are present. Heart size is normal. The patient is after mitral valvuloplasty. Calcifications within the papillary muscles might reflect prior infarction. There is no pericardial effusion. The imaged portion of the upper abdomen reveals calcified gallstones and pancreatic atrophy and otherwise is unremarkable. Airways are patent to the subsegmental level bilaterally. Partially loculated left pleural effusion is demonstrated, small to moderate. Consolidation in the left lower lobe with subsequent volume loss, most likely reflects rounded atelectasis given the appearance of the vessels and airways. Internal calcifications are also noted in this loculation. The assessment of lung parenchyma is somewhat limited due to motion artifact. Loculated pleural effusion on the right along the major fissure is demonstrated, 4:89, approximately 5 x 2 cm. At the right lung base, several ground-glass and solid nodules are noted, might potentially reflect infectious process such as right lower lobe pneumonia. No definitive evidence of pneumonia is seen on the left. Within the limitations of this non-contrast study, no pleural masses are noted. The patient is after T12 vertebroplasty. Some irregularity within the bones might be consistent with known history of myeloma. Left upper lobe posterior segment atelectasis is most likely related to pleural effusion and unlikely to represent infectious process. IMPRESSION: 1. Small to moderate loculated left pleural effusion, chronicity unknown, most likely chronic given the presence of relatively large left lower lobe rounded atelectasis and left upper lobe posterior segment atelectasis. Small loculated right pleural effusion along the fissure. 2. Suspected right lower lobe developing / resolving infectious process, assessment is limited due to motion artifacts. 3. Extensive coronary artery disease. 4. Status post mitral valvuloplasty. 5. Dilated pulmonary arteries that might reflect pulmonary hypertension. Correlation with echocardiography is suggested if clinically warranted. showed 1.

[/INST] </s><s>___ w/PMHx multiple myeloma, arthritis, and spinal stenosis presenting with complaints of poorly controlled back pain, acute changes in mental status and failure to thrive, now with chest CT showing consolidation vs. atelectasis on left, with possible evolving right infectious process on right. ACTIVE ISSUES 1 Goals of care: After extensive discussion with the patient's son ___ and daughter (and HCP) ___, the decision was made to transition to comfort measures only. Antibiotics were discontinued and medication list was reviewed with unnecessary medications removed (Simvastatin, vitamin D). The patient was discharged to skilled nursing with inpatient hospice care. Goals of care are comfort measures only, DNR/DNI, do not hospitalize unless symptoms are not controlled with hospice care. 2. Healthcare Associated Pneumonia: Left pleural effusion discovered on chest x-ray early in admission. After review of patient's outside CT scans, no effusion was present in CT of ___, only an area of rounded atelectasis on the right. With these findings, chest CT was performed and possible infectious process was found on the right, with large areas of consolidation vs. atelectasis on the left. It was thought that these areas could likely represent pneumonia in the setting of this patient who had been persistently delirious and has a history of stay in a ___ care facility for the last several months, who is likely to have aspirated, and likely does not mount a large immune response. He was started on treatment for presumed HCAP with vancomycin, cefepime, and metronidazole to be continued for an 8 day course starting ___. After goals of care discussion, antibiotics were discontinued ___. PICC line was removed prior to discharge. 3. Altered mental status: Per the patient's family, he had experienced a decline in mental status after his kyphoplasty several months ago with a possible history of stroke, however, his mental status had become acutely worse over the week prior to admission. CT of the head revealed no acute process, but did show evidence of chronic ischemic changes. Narcotics were minimized with the thought that these were contributing to his delirium. The patient was found to be hypercalcemic to 10.7 and this was thought to be a possible cause of AMS. Oncology was consulted and noted that this level of hypercalcemia was not dramatic enough to cause AMS of the degree seen in this patient. Other oncologic causes, including hyperviscosity and uremia were also ruled out. Per oncology, there was no clear indication that myeloma could be causing this AMS. Medication effect from over sedation with oxycodone was thought to be a large part of the etiology for delirium and the patient was treated conservatively for pain, limiting narcotics. 3. Mutiple myeloma: The patient and family history on this topic were vague; the outside oncologist Dr. ___ was called to clarify. Per Dr. ___ patient was discovered to have an isolated plasmacytoma at L3 in ___, which he was treating with palliative radiation, with the possibility of definitive treatment as this was thought to be his only lesion, and he was thought to be free of systemic disease based on an unremarkable skeletal survey. The patient had never received chemotherapy for myeloma, nor had he had bone marrow biopsy. IgG on ___ was 2500 with elevated kappa spike 27.2. However, on lumbar MRI performed to evaluate back pain on this admission, systemic disease was suggested by infiltration of the spine consistent with extensive myeloma. Oncology was consulted who noted that there was no urgent indication to treat the patient for myeloma at this time and that myeloma was not likely to be a contributing factor to his AMS. Repeat IgG was 2665 and Beta 2 microglobulin was elevated at 3.4. Skeletal survey showed no definite lytic lesions. At the time of discharge, UPEP, serum viscosity, and Free kappa and lambda light chains were still pending and should be followed by the outpatient oncologist depending on goals of care. 4.Back pain: The patient has a longstanding history of back pain as well as surgery on the spine with most recently being kyphoplasty in ___. However, this pain seemed worse. Lumbar MRI was performed which did not reveal any obvious cause for his pain but did show an ill-defined region of abnormal density in the pre-coccygeal/pre-sacral area. The spine service was consulted who reviewed the MRI with the neuroradiologist and found no involvement of the spine by the presacral tissue abnormality. The chronic pain service was also consulted. For pain, the patient received: tylenol ___ tid, gabapentin 300mg TID, oxycodone 5mg q6hours PRn, as well as morphine ___ IV prn q8hrs for breakthrough pain. Narcotics were minimized due to contribution to delirium. His neuropathic pain with sciatica-like features improved. However, the patient had difficulty communicating his overall pain effectively due to delirium and consistently rated his pain low on a severity scale. 5. Aspiration: Nursing raised concern for aspiration. Speech and swallow study was performed with recommendations for nectar-thick liquids and ground solids. CHRONIC ISSUES 1. Glaucoma-stable on brimonidine and dorzolamide. 2. ___ esophagus-stable on omeprazole. TRANSITIONAL ISSUES UPEP, serum viscosity, and free kappa/lambda light chains are still pending at discharge and should be followed up by the outpatient PCP and oncologist CODE STATUS DNR/DNI, Comfort measures only. Do not hospitalize.</s>

Seems that the fever was an adrenergic response to severe abdominal pain and nausea while at ___. During his course he had no focal findings on exam and no localizing symptoms other than chronic issues and with stable labs without leukocytosis. CT A/P, CXR, UA, Flu swab and Cdiff PCR all negative. BCx and stool Cx NGTD. He remained hemodynamically stable without signs of sepsis throughout his course without need for antibiotics. # Radiation Esophagitis # Stage III-IV esophageal cancer on chemo s/p XRT # Moderate Malnutrition: No PO intake, albumin 3.0 during prior admission, peripheral muscle wasting on exam. # Nausea with vomiting Overall he appeared stable, pain and nausea controlled and at baseline from prior to last discharge. As per prior work up and documentation from last admission, radiation esophagitis was confirmed on biopsy EGD ___. His last admission pain was very difficult to control following J tube placement and he required high dose IV Morphine which was changed to PO solution AND SC morphine. Prior to discharge he was only requiring oral morphine solution. Recurrent severe pain at ___ was likely related to missing several doses of morphine and being underdosed from what he was receiving at ___. Furthermore, nausea and vomiting were best controlled at ___ when zofran and compazine were staggered Q4 Hr. While at ___ seems he did not receive any antiemetics, this likely accounted for worsening symptoms rather than new acute pathology. During his admission he had no evidence of worsening diarrhea, fevers, chills or leukocytosis to support infectious etiology. No abdominal tenderness on exam and normoactive bowel sounds, CT A/P negative and passing flatus, SBO highly unlikely. Cdiff and stool cultures all negative. Continued continuous tube feeds at 70ml/hr as per prior hospitalization, restarted Ondansetron Q8H and Compazine Q8H standing and stagger within 4 hours of each other. EKG monitored and QT remained around 425. Continued Fentanyl 25 mcg/patch for basal pain control, Omeprazole, liquid acetaminophen, sucralfate slurry, lidocaine patch as during prior admission. Continued also Maalox/diphenhydramine/lidocaine/levsin. Continued 10 mg oral morphine solution q2hrs initially as recommended by palliative care which was tapered to Q3HRS:PRN in conjunction with palliative care recs. On discharge the plan was to continue weaning to Q4HRs:PRN, this was communicated to outpatient providers by palliative care. # Hyponatremia Mild and consistent with prior values during last admit. Likely hypovolemic from vomiting, resolved with IVFs. # Anemia: # Leukpenia Stable on admission from prior to discharge, downtrended in setting of IVFs but remained stable therafter. Likely related to chemotherapy, radiation and chronic disease, not neutropenic and without signs of blood loss. # Opiate use disorder: History of and no longer active. For now priority is achieving pain control for his severe esophagitis as before then discuss weaning opiates in conjunction with palliative care. Morphine tapering should continue as discussed in notes and in discussion with palliative care, high risk for addiction.</s>

[/INST] </s><s>BRIEF SUMMARY ============= Ms. ___ is a ___ with a PMH of A-fib on warfarin, R MCA stroke, HTN, and dementia who presented to ___ with falls and injuries to her left arm. She was found to have evidence of necrotizing fasciitis of the left arm likely secondary to a wound sustained after a recent fall. She was admitted to the plastic surgery service and underwent significant debridement of the left arm from above the elbow to the dorsum of the hand, with a washout several days later and skin grafting a few days later. Her initial operation was complicated by Afib w/ RVR, and she required an ICU stay for BP support. After achieving stable vitals, she was transferred to the floor. For the supratherapeutic INR, she was given FFP and vitamin K. She was continued on her metoprolol for her Afib, but subsequently developed bradycardia, which held stable until discharge. She was started on Apixaban for anticoagulation and was discharged to rehab after her wound vac was taken down. ACUTE ISSUES ============ #L elbow necrotizing fasciitis: The patient was recently hospitalized at ___ for a supratherapeutic INR ___ the setting of poor PO intake. After discharge, she suffered several falls resulting ___ a wound on her left elbow, which became progressively more reddened and swollen. The day prior to presentation, she noted blisters on her forearm and was taken to the ED. ___ the ED, she was noted to have e/o necrotizing soft tissue infection on exam. She was started on vancomycin, clindamcyin, and meropenem and taken to the OR, where the L arm was extensively debrided. Her OR course was complicated by A-fib w/ RVR requiring multiple doses of esmolol. She was briefly admitted to the TSICU w/ intubation, pressor support, and close monitoring, then transferred to the plastic surgery service. Her wound cultures revealed group A strep, and her antibiotics were switched to clindamycin and ceftriaxone per ID. The patient was subsequently transferred to the medicine floor, and was taken back to the OR for a washout, again for a skin graft placement, and then again for wound vac takedown (done at bedside). Her clindamycin was discontinued with plans to continue her Ceftriaxone for 2 weeks post-debridement. She remained afebrile with negative cultures and was discharged to rehab. SURGICAL/ICU COURSE: Data upon admission: WBC 23, Cr 2, Na 147, lactate 5.5, fascial plane air on plain films, and necrotic bullae formation. INR was 7 and she was given 2 units FFP and IV vitamin K x 1. She was taken to the OR once INR down to 2.4 a few hours later. Patient was tachycardic and somnolent ___ the ED, but maintaining her pressure. ___ OR, she developed A-fib w/ RVR requiring multiple bouts of esmolol before starting the case. She was maintained on neo throughout case. The patient was taken to the OR and circumferentially debrided soft tissue of entire left forearm, dorsal and including some digital soft tissue, down to the elbow proximally. Much of the dorsal tendons paratenon had to be removed, adaptic placed on this before the VAC. Circumferential VAC applied on 75 mmHg, intermittent suction. The patient was transferred to the ICU post-surgery for blood pressure support with pressor therapy. Pressor therapy was discontinued on hospital day #2. Patient given digoxin load for a-fib with RVR. Patient restarted her amlodipine on hospital day #4 and she was also started on PO Lopressor with good control. The patient was maintained intubated and on ventilator until she was able to be weaned from vent on hospital day #2. Post-operatively, the patient was given IV fluids. An NG tube was inserted and coffee ground gastric contents were drained, guaiac positive. Patient was started on IV pantoprazole and monitored closely. On hospital day#4, patient pulled out her NG tube. Her diet was advanced when appropriate, which was tolerated well. She was also started on a bowel regimen to encourage bowel movement. Wound cultures revealed beta streptococcus group A and patient's antibiotic therapy to changed to ceftriaxone and clindamycin per Infectious Disease. #A-fib with RVR: At home, the patient is controlled with metoprolol 25 mg BID and anticoagulated with warfarin 5 mg. The patient was noted on admission to have a supratherapeutic INR, requiring vitamin K and FFP. As noted above, the patient developed A-fib with RVR during her initial OR course, requiring several doses of esmolol, with subsequent hypotension and pressor requirement ___ the ICU. On the medicine floor, she was noted to be ___ A-fib with controlled rate on metoprolol 25 mg BID, however she subsequently converted to sinus rhythm with bradycardia. Her metoprolol dose was decreased to 12.5 mg BID for this. Regarding her anticoagulation, because of her need to go to the OR several times, the patient was maintained on a heparin drip. After a discussion with her son (HCP), he felt that the risks of anticoagulation ___ the setting of her falls were outweighed by the risks of stroke, so felt that she should be anticoagulated at discharge. Given her INR lability, she was started on Apixiban on the day of discharge.

See above two problems for further detail. #Sinus bradycardia: Patient ___ A-fib at admission which converted to sinus rhythm during her floor course. Bradycardia likely due to metoprolol effect. She was also noted to have occasional atrial and ventricular ectopy on telemetry. She remained asymptomatic during her course. Metoprolol adjusted per above. #Anemia: Likely secondary to post-op blood loss combined with dilutional effect. H/H slowly trended down and required a transfusion of 1 u pRBCs on the day of discharge. #Malnutrition: The patient was noted to have poor PO intake with no dysphagia. Nutrition was consulted, and recommended supplements and possible feeding tube placement. Given her functional ability to eat and difficulty with rehab placement ___ the setting of feeding tube placement, we opted to continue her on a PO diet with supplements and assistance with eating. She will eat well with one-to-one assistance with feeding and this should be encouraged. #new diagnosis of systolic CHF: The patient had a TTE during this admission showing an EF of ___ with moderate (2+) aortic regurgitation, mild to moderate (___) mitral regurgitation, and moderate to severe [3+] tricuspid regurgitation.

[/INST] </s><s>BRIEF SUMMARY STATEMENT: Ms. ___ is a ___ year old female with PMH significant for DM type II on insulin, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, NAFLD, and hx. of pulmonary embolism at ___ y/o on OCPs who presents with acute onset headache, blurred vision, and chest pain. The patient's symptoms occured in the setting of elevated blood pressures likely consistent with an episode of hypertensive emergency. # Chest Pain: The pt. has history of similar type of chest pain, not necessarily related to activity and more related to anxiety type events. On this admission, her chest pain occurred in the setting of elevated blood pressures in the 220s/120s. Her chest pain slowly improved as her blood pressures improved. She was found to have a mildly elevated troponin at 0.02. Her troponin peaked at this level and slowly returned to normal. It was thought that the mechanism of her chest pain is related to transient ischemic injury from increased cardiac demand in the setting of high afterload with significantly elevated blood pressures. This type of mechanism supports an episode of hypertensive emergency as there is evidence of end organ damage. The patient's EKG was without significant change (Sinus rhythm with LBBB) other than a slight change in QRS morphology in the lateral leads likely attributable to lead placement. Stress test showed possible anginal type symptoms in the setting of Persantine infusion, with uninterpretable ST segment changes for ischemia in the setting of LBBB. Nuclear perfusion test showed decreased cardiac output of 47%, down from 70% previously. The patient was asymptomatic during her stay. She will follow up with cardiology as an outpatient. # Headache and Blurry Vision: The patient presented with acute onset left-sided supraorbital sharp pain associated with blurry vision that lasted approximately 5 minutes. The quick onset and remission of these symptoms in the setting of significantly elevated blood pressures is consistent with hypertensive emergency causing end organ damage manifested in this case by blurry vision and headache. Other diagnoses we considered were transient ischemic attach from sometype of embolic event. The patient was noted to be in sinus rhythm without evidence of atrial fibrillation. A carotid ultrasound was performed which showed Less than 40% stenosis on the right and no atherosclerotic plaque noted on the lef. This made an embolic event less likely. Her neurologic exam remained non-focal and she remained hemodynamically stable throughout admission. # Hypertension: The patient's blood pressure at home before admission was in the 220s. However, during admission the patient's blood pressure was well controlled. The patient was continued on lisinopril 40mg PO daily and HCTZ 12.5mg PO daily. CHRONIC ISSUES # Diabetes Mellitus: Stable. The patient was continued lantus 34 units in the AM and on a humalog insulin sliding scale. # Constipation with Right upper quadrant pain: The patient reported a chronic history of stable abdominal pain since antibiotic treatment several months ago for her pneumonia. She denied a history of diarrhea, however she does endorse significant constipation associated with RUQ abdominal pain. This was managed with constipation regimen. # Chronic Cough: Likely related to the lisinopril. The patient was tried on losartan in the past and was not able to tolerate secondary to GI upset. As such, will continue lisinopril. # Hyperlipidemia: Pt. with known history however is no longer taking statin ___ myalgias. She is also not taking primary prophylaxis with aspirin ___ gastric intolerance # GERD: Stable. Continued on omeprazole TRANSITIONAL ISSUES #Hypertension Management: We discharged the patient on her home regimen; however it is unclear why the patient's blood pressure was in the 220s at home before admission. She may need increased blood pressure control and should be monitored.</s>

She went home and tried to take deep breaths, count backwards from 10, take a drink of cold water which helped a little. The history is then unclear as to when she developed the slurred speech and weakness. . Per the history mom was given, her friend was at her apartment with her and she came out of her room some time around 2 or 3pm. At that time her speech was slurred and she had difficulty standing up. He had her sit on the couch and she fell to the ground. This friend then called her boyfriend who was at work and unable to come see her.

In the ED at ___, she was combative and agitated. Unable to perform NIHSS due to agitation. There she had a CT head which was reportedly unremarkable. MRI performed after ativan. Radiology showed No evidence of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis. Radiology showed There is expected further evolution of the large right MCA territorial infarct with a minimal increase in leftward shift of normally midline structures and no evidence of significant central herniation. Radiology showed Stable appearance of large right MCA infarct with leftward shift of normally midline structures. Radiology showed 1. No evidence for a pelvic venous thrombus. 2. 3.6 cm minimally complex right ovarian cyst, probably within physiologic allowance in a patient of this age, followup pelvic ultrasound suggested in six weeks to ensure stability or resolution. Radiology showed Redemonstration of the extensive subacute right middle cerebral arterial territorial infarction, with similar degree of subfalcine but no more central herniation. There is evidence of hemorrhagic conversion in the involved deep gray matter structures of the striatum, as well as likely early dystrophic mineralization related to cortical pseudo-laminar necrosis. Radiology showed 1. Very large relatively acute infarct involving much of the right middle cerebral arterial distribution, with only slight mass effect upon the overlying gyri and subjacent body of the right lateral ventricle, and no subfalcine or more central herniation. 2. No evidence of hemorrhagic conversion. 3. Abrupt occlusion of the right MCA at its mid-M1 segment, which may relate to thrombosis, given the hyperattenuating material in the immediately more distal portion as seen on the NECT or, alternatively, to focal dissection or vasospasm, or some combination of these. There is minimal distal flow, largely provided by meningeal collateral vessels. 4. Otherwise, unremarkable intracranial circulation and cervical vessels; specifically, there is a normal appearance to the right common and internal carotid arteries, without significant plaque or flow-limiting stenosis. COMMENT: A preliminary interpretation to this effect was posted to RIS-web and PACS by Dr. ___ at 5:51 a.m. on ___. Radiology showed Lungs volumes are slightly diminished but no focal airspace consolidation, pleural effusions, or pneumothorax is seen. Incidental note is made of an azygos lobe. Overall, cardiac and mediastinal contours are within normal limits given portable technique. No pneumothorax. No evidence of pulmonary edema. No acute bony abnormality. Radiology showed 1. New mild (4 mm) leftward parafalcine herniation, with associated mild effacement of the right lateral ventricle. 2. Evolving large right MCA territory infarct, with no evidence of hemorrhagic conversion. 3. The suprasellar and quadrigeminal cisterns remain preserved.
