was restarted during this admission, but patient refused lovenox
shots after 3 days. Heparin drip also tried but discontinued as
the patient refused a dedicated line for heparin drip. He
communicated full understanding of risks of not treating DVT.
After further discussion with patient, heparin drip was started
___. Developed increased RUE swelling ___, and repeat
RUE ultrasound showed stable DVT. At time of discharge, pt was
explained the risk and benefits of anti-coagulation. The pt
fully understood the risk of PE without anticoagulation. He was
unwilling to have daily Lovenox shots or Coumadin PR. He
persistently declined anticoagulation and is aware of the risk
of DVT's, including PE and possible death.

# Pancytopenia - rec'd 2U PRBCs on ___, HCT increased
appropriately from ___. He has chronic pancytopenia likely
from nutritional deficiency and repeated courses of broad
spectrum antibiotics. Got 2U PRBCs on ___ with suboptimal
response. Hemolysis labs unremarkable. However, reticulocytes
were depressed at 0.9 on ___, likely secondary to linezolid.
Linezolid was discontinued ___. The pancytopenia improved after
discontinuation of Linezolid, however, patient is still
pancytopenic likely from nutritional deficit. It has been stable
over the last 2 weeks of his admission.
.
# Catheter tip infection
He has a ___ catheter for TPN. He had a MRSA catheter tip
infection on ___ for which he had been started on
vancomycin. We continued IV vancomycin, originally planned to
complete 4 week course of vancomycin until ___. However, as he
developed fevers on ___, vancomycin was continued until ___,
at which point vancomycin was changed to daptomycin because of
concern that fevers were drug-related. Daptomycin was changed
to linezolid on ___ because fevers persisted. CBC monitored
daily because marrow suppression is an adverse effect of
linezolid. On ___, reticulocytes were low, so linezolid was
stopped and changed to doxycycline on ___ for the MRSA
catheter tip infection. Because he is TPN-dependent, he is at
risk for fungemia, but mycolytic cultures x2 were negative.
Soft tissue ultrasound was not suggestive of pocket infection or
abscess. Doxycycline was continued until ___ clinic visit
for the MRSA catheter tip infection. Discharged with IV
Doxycycline.

# Chronic urinary retention: Has atonic bladder secondary to
congenital intestinal obstruction. Renal ultrasound and PET-CT
showed hydronephrosis and large, distended bladder. Seen by
urology in-house. Required intermittent straight
catheterization for bladder decompression during this admission.
Will have f/u with Dr. ___.
.
# Hypernatremia, Hypokalemia, Metabolic Alkalosis - On
presentation, was hypernatremic, hypokalemic, and had a
metabolic alkalosis. Occurred in the setting of missing 2 days
of TPN because of repeated ED visits. Improved with 3.5L
hypotonic IV fluids. Venous blood gas consistent with pure
metabolic alkalosis. Most likely etiology is
gastrointestinal/insensible losses of free water and H+ through
the leaky G-tube. Contraction alkalosis likely also contributed
in the setting of volume depletion as he was unable to get TPN
or hydration. After initial volume resuscitation, electrolytes
normalized and were maintained with daily TPN and occassional
electrolyte replacement. Normal electrolytes at time of
discharge.

disorder, hypertension, anxiety disorder, with multiple recent
syncopal episodes who presents following a syncopal episode.
#Syncope: Patient has had multiple episodes of syncope over last
month, with episodes occurring almost daily the week prior to
admission. Prodrome of diaphoresis in addition to a prolonged
recovery from the episodes suggest vasovagal etiology, likely in
the setting of her recent life stressors with work. Syncope
work-up for other etiologies was negative. In particular, ECHO
and carotid US showed no signs of stenosis or outflow
obstruction. EKGs showed sinus bradycardia, and patient has no
history of heart disease, palpitations, arrhythmia thus unlikely
a cardiac cause. However, she will go home with ___ of Hearts
monitoring. Patient was educated about vasovagal and encouraged
to maintain PO intake and use physical counterpressure
techniques when she feels symptoms.
#Episodic Hypertension: Patient presented with hypertensive
urgency at 170/102 on admission, with baseline at 110's/70's,
per patient. Patient has had episodic elevations in blood
pressure throughout admission, ranging from 110s-170s/70s-100s,
though has been asymptomatic. Initial elevation may have been
attributed to clonidine rebound (which she takes for night
sweats/anxiety). Clonidine was stopped and patient was started
on captopril 6.25 TID in the hospital. She was discharged on
lisinopril 5 mg daily, and will follow up with PCP for
medication titration. Given episodic elevations in blood
pressure, sweating, weight loss, there was concern for
pheochromocytoma. Urine metanephrines are pending at discharge.
#Night Sweats: Patient endorses 7 lb weight loss over past two
months with daily night sweats, dissimilar to her hot flash
symptoms. CXR normal with no signs of lung mass or TB infection.
LDH slightly elevated, though hemolyzed specimen. Patient has
had history of longstanding night sweats, often triggered but
life stressors.
#Diarrhea: Patient endorses watery diarrhea at nights every ___
days, usually attributed to stress episodes. No recent
antibiotics, exposure, no association with food, no significant
caffeine intake. During hospital stay, patient had no bowel
movements.
#Wheezing: Patient is asymptomatic, though diffuse bilateral
wheezing was heard on exam. Patient notes history of

metabolites. Appears to have failed outpatient levofloxacin
therapy for previous acinetobacter UTI.
-Urine culture revealed levofloxacin resistant staph.
-Received 6 days of antibiotics, transitioned to comfort-focused
care at discharge.
-Blood Cx NGTD
-Failed voiding trial so foley was re-inserted.
2. Malnutrition: Given delirium, patient with very minimal PO
intake. Occasionally can tolerate ice cream and has been
swallowing meds with this. Despite aspiration risk, feeding for
comfort is acceptable.
3. ___: Improved. Likely elements of post-renal given urinary
retention and blood clot obstructing foley and pre-renal from
decreased PO intake in setting of encephalopathy. Improved with
foley and IVFs. Baseline 0.9-1.0
4. Agitation: Initially required restraints during acute

SUMMARY
=======
Ms. ___ is a ___ year old female with past medical history
notable for multiple myeloma, with recent admission due to
concerns for HSV-2 aseptic meningitis, readmitted due to fevers
and confusion at home. Her repeat infectious workup was largely
unremarkable (including negative HSV-2 CSF PCR) except for
persistent, although decreased, lymphocytes in her CSF. She was
treated empirically with a 10d course of vancomycin, cefepime,
ampicillin, and acyclovir for possible HSV-2 meningitis, and
other possible bacterial causes. Her hospital course was
unremarkable.
==============
ACUTE PROBLEMS
==============
#Altered mental status
#Fevers
Recent discharge for presumed aseptic HSV-2 meningits, as
patient had presented at that time with similar symptoms of AMS
and fevers, with CSF PCR notable for low-level positive HSV-2.
She had at that time received both a full IV acyclovir course as
well as PO valacyclovir in the outpatient setting. She was
subsequently readmitted after several days due to similar
symptoms. Of note, her initial fever of T 101.6 in the ED had
defervesced prior to initiation of antimicrobial agents.
Presumptive diagnosis of HSV-2 aseptic meningitis vs Malloret's
meningitis vs undertreated viral/bacterial etiology that was not
adequately covered during last admission. Infectious workup
largely unremarkable - CSF PCR for this admit was negative for
HSV-2, although did demonstrate lymphocytes. She ultimately
received a total of 10 days of vancomycin, cefepime, ampicillin,
and acyclovir for empiric coverage of possible undertreated
viral and bacterial causes.

<s>[INST] <<SYS>> Act as a health expert <</SYS>> create brief hospital course of the following text: Mr. ___ is ___ with history of HIV on HAART, last CD4 count
875 viral count 2422, presenting with shortness of breath. He
initially presented to his PCP's office today with complaint of
hematuria and was found to be hypoxic (80%) on room air. The
patient reports that for the past couple of days he has been
short of breath. He also reports associated fever, chills and
cough productive of greenish sputum and pleuritic chest pain on
the R. Denies any abdominal pain, n/v, diarrhea, consipation,
dysuria, frequency, palpitations, headache. He denies any
recent travel. He lives alone in an apartment and is on
disability. Radiology showed Widespread opacification of the right mid-to-lower hemithorax
with mass effect, suspected to represent a pleural effusion at least in part,
including a possible large loculated component; a mass could also be
considered, in addition to widespread atelectasis or pneumonic consolidation. Radiology showed 1. Large loculated right pleural effusion; saccular bronchiectasis of the
bilateral lower lobes and consolidation of the right middle and right lower
lobes with heterogeneous hypoenhancement and rounded hypodensities that may
represent either the underlying saccular bronchiectasis versus multifocal
necrotizing pneumonia.
2. Cholelithiasis without cholecystitis.
3. Hilar lymphadenopathy may be reactive; follow up imaging after treatment
is recommended to ensure resolution. Radiology showed 1. Decreased size of large right free-flowing pleural effusion, status post
placement of a percutaneous pigtail catheter. Given anterior positioning of
the pigtail catheter within the pleural space, right lateral decubitus patient
positioning may be helpful in allowing further drainage of this effusion.
2. Slight improvement in right lower lobe aeration. Previously seen rounded
hypodensities within the right lower lobe cannot be assessed on the present
study given the lack of intravenous contrast. Of note, these rounded
hypodensities were previously thought to be either mucous-filled saccular
bronchiectasis or areas of parenchymal necrosis.
3. Markedly improved aeration of the right middle lobe.
4. Unchanged extensive left lower lobe bronchiectasis.
Findings were discussed with Dr. ___ by Dr. ___ at 6:52 p.m. via
telephone on the day of the study. Radiology showed Right basilar opacity consistent with empyema, unchanged from
most recent imaging. Radiology showed AP chest compared to ___:
Moderate volume of residual right pleural effusion, and attendant atelectasis
or consolidation in the right lower lung have not improved since at least
___, despite the right pleural pigtail catheter in the lower chest
laterally. No pneumothorax is present. There is new consolidation at the
left lung base, which could be either atelectasis or new pneumonia. If the
patient can tolerate conventional radiographs, these, rather than bedside
studies, should be obtained. The heart size is normal.
Findings were discussed by telephone with the resident physician caring for
this patient at 9:03 a.m. Radiology showed New right-sided PICC in place with the tip in the low SVC,
otherwise unchanged chest radiograph.
These findings were communicated to ___ with IV nursing team at 11:36 a.m.
by phone. Radiology showed Stable appearance of right pleural effusion. The patient was diagnosed with PLEURAL EFFUSION NOS, HYPOXEMIA, ASYMPTOMATIC HIV INFECTION. The patient was treated with Chest tube placement
PICC. At the time of discharge, the patient had Empyema. The patient was given written instructions concerning precautionary instructions and the appropriate follow-up care.

treatment), history of IVDU on methadone, who presented with
dyspnea and was found to have pneumonia and empyema. He was
treated with antibiotics and had a chest tube placed. The
cultures from the sputum and pleural fluid returned and he was
switched to IV cefepime and PO flagyl for a 4 week course. ID
will follow as an outpatient.
# Pneumonia with empyema: He had hypoxemia, pneumonia and a
large empyema on chest CT. He was initially started on
vancomycin, cefepime, and levofloxacin. Interventional
pulmonology placed a chest tube on ___. The effusion was
loculated and required tPA and ___ injections. The results of
the pleural effusion cultures were strep milleri species. Sputum
cultures grew Beta streptococcus group C, enterobacter
aerogenes, acinetobacter baumannii complex, haemophilus
influenza and beta lactamase negative (see results secontion).
He improved with treatment and drainage and his chest tube was
pulled on ___. He was seen by infectious disease specialists
who recommended a 4 week course of cefepime and flagyl. He will
need to continue this until ___ (and will need to be seen
by ID prior to discontinuation). A picc line was placed. He
should not be discharged from rehab with the ___ as he is at
risk of IVDU. After completion of his antibiotics this should be
removed. At the time of discharge he was on 1L NC.
# Opioid dependence: He takes 91mg of methadone per day (Habit
OPAC on ___.). He was continued on methadone 90mg per day.
He is at risk of abuse of the PICC. This should be removed prior
to discharge. He is also getting oxycodone as needed for pain.
# Chronic CO2 retention: Likely secondary to COPD or obesity
hypoventilation syndrome. He has been relatively stable with NC
and has not required positive pressure ventilation. This should
be evaluated further after discharge. He was treated with PRN
nebulizers.
# Hyponatremia: He had hyponatremia. Initially he was treated
with IVF with some improvement in his sodium. However, the urine
lytes were suggestive of SIADH. Thus, he was put on a fluid
restriction. However, the patient was unhappy with this and
refused to comply. His Na was stable at 132 without treatment.
Sodium should be checked a couple of times per week to make sure
it is stable at rehab.
# HIV: His most recent CD4 count is 875 with a viral load of
2422. He should be continued on truvada and kaletra.
# Hypertension: He was continue on amlodipine BID. Blood
pressures largely controlled.
# Anxiety: He was continued on his clonazepam.
# Constipation: he was writted for a bowel regimen
# Asthma: stable, continued on inhalers. </s> |

which was eventually diagnosed as decompensated alcohol-induced
cirrhosis. 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> |

ACTIVE ISSUES
====================
1. 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.
Specifically, the team spent much time with the pt educating him
regarding the risks of smoking, and potential methods for
quitting.
He was discharged chest pain-free in stable condition, w/
appropriate follow up appointments. He was instructed to
continue Aspirin 81mg daily.</s> |

#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.

non-operatively, subsequently developed AMS.
# L1 compression fracture with retropulsion: Circumstances
around fall, including exact timing, remain unclear. Per family
patient lives alone and has been falling frequently lately. Pt
did not seek care immediately, likely due to baseline cognitive
dysfunction. Pt initially sought care at ___ for symptoms of
bowel and bladder incontinence. She was transferred to ___
given concern for cord compression. Initial exam did not reveal
any acute neurological changes. MRI here revealed acute on
chronic L1 compression fracture without evidence of compression
of cord to explain her symptoms. Pt has history of osteopenia,
which likely predisposed her to fracture. She was evaluated by
the Orthopedic Spine team, who recommended non-operative
management. She was fitted with a Jewitt brace for spine
stabilization to wear with ambulation. She was evaluated by ___
and OT, who recommended SNF for further recovery. If medication
is needed for pain prefer tylenol given AMS likely caused by
narcotic pain medication. Pt will need to follow up with Ortho

multivitamin should be continued.
# Toxic metabolic encephalopathy: Pt's family reports
progressive cognitive decline over the past year. She continues
to lives alone, however has had several recent falls as above.
Initial exam after admission to medicine was consistent with
acute delirium given lack of orientation, attention and
concentration. Her symptoms were most likely caused by narcotic
pain medication given urine tox positive for opiates and/or
hospital setting on baseline dementia. Infectious work-up
negative. CT head revealed no acute intracranial abnormality.
She was found to be Vitamin B12 deficit, however this is not
likely to explain the acute change. TSH was normal. She required
Zyprexa in ED and additional 5mg PO on AM of ___ for
agitation, none thereafter. Over the next several days pt's

# L ear discharge: The presentation of the ear is concerning for
otitis media or externa; unable to adequately visualize TM due
to purulent discharge. As such, perforated TM could not be ruled
out, which led team to hold off on antibiotic drops. This otitis
is likely chronic and was seen by her PCP, who obtained a cx
sample on ___ (grew S aureus). It is unclear where exactly this
sample was obtained from. Pt was discussed with ENT, who felt
that pt should be seen for outpatient f/u for repeat culture
from within ear canal and appropriate therapy.

# Psych: Psychiatry was consulted given the patient's numerous
psychosocial stressors and question of difficulty coping and
safety going home, as well as some mention in previous PCP notes
about pt seeing demons. Psychiatry corraborated some possible
delusional aspect to her thinking as well as prominent mood
symptoms (though the patient firmly opposed the label of
depression), but psychiatry felt that her primary treatment
concerned her underlying delusional disorder with psychotic
symptoms. They recommended some additional laboratory workup
that is detailed elsewhere for possible organic causes of her
symptoms(negative RPR); brain MRI was not obtained. Pt declined
any treatment for mood symptoms.

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. The patient was initially fluid restricted; however this
was discontinued per the patient's request. His sodium was
trended and his hyponatremia resolved.
#. Urinary symptoms: Patient with PSA of 9 as an outpatient; he
is awaiting Urology follow-up at ___. Tamsulosin was started.
Patient tolerated this well, denying symptoms of orthostatics.
The patient was provided with prescription for this medication
and encouraged to follow-up with Urology as an outpatient as per

TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
=====================
[] At time of discharge, patient did not have an outpatient
colonoscopy scheduled but had been ordered. Please confirm with
patient that this has been scheduled for the next few weeks
after he completes course of antibiotics.
[] Patient with " Marked wall thickening of the terminal ileum
in very distal ileum and wall thickening to a lesser extent
involving the cecum and proximal ascending
colon. 5 x 4.0 cm region of likely phlegmon superior to the
thickened terminal ileum." found on CT A/P. Recommend that
patient has a follow up CT or colonoscopy once the acute process
resides to ensure resolution and exclude underlying mass.
[] Patient discharged on ciprofloxacin and flagyl for a 10 day
course scheduled to end ___.
[] Patient found to be CMV IGM and IGG positive. Per GI, there
was no indication for antiviral treatment or colonoscopy at this
time because patient is immunocompetant. GI will follow with
outpatient colonoscopy.
[] Recommend outpatient vaccination for hepatitis.
ACUTE ISSUES
=================
# Terminal ileitis
He presented with 2 weeks of abdominal pain and intermittent
fevers and was found on imaging to have findings consistent with
terminal ileitis. This is typically associated with Crohn's
disease although there are other associated conditions such as
ulcerative colitis, infection or less likely NSAID ileitis. CRP
at admission was elevated to 179. He was started on cipro and
flagyl with improvement in his abdominal pain. GI was consulted
and recommended sending off serologies. At the time of
discharge, patient was noted to be CMV IgM positive, IgG
positive, EBV IgG positive. Per GI, since patient was
immunocompetant, they believed this was likely infectious and
recommended continuing antibiotics and setting up an outpatient
colonoscopy once the infection resolved.
# Mild normocytic anemia
Suspect reactive from illness however pt has prior hx of BRBPR
iso lipoma. Low iron. Hemolysis labs negative. No evidence of
active bleeding.
# Mild transaminitis
Initially presented with transaminitis that improved by
discharge. RUQUS negative for biliary process. Likely secondary
to infection as above. Hepatitis panels negative.</s> |

___ I fractures, right LeFort II fracture, and left LeFort
III fracture. OMFS and ophthalmology were consulted. OMFS
determined that operative repair would require a substantial
block of OR time and so scheduled the case for ___.
Ophthalmology evaluated the patient and determined that no acute
ophthalmologic operative intervention was indicated but that the
patient should follow up with the Mass Eye and Ear Institute
department of occuloplastics. He was given a full liquid diet
as he was not expected to go to the OR immediately.
On ___, the patient was noted to have substantial facial
swelling secondary to his injuries and so he was placed on
continuous O2 saturation monitoring and transferred to the SICU;
his condition did not worsen and he required no additional
interventions. A tertiary survey on that day did not reveal any
new injuries. He returned to the floor on ___ and was kept on
full liquids.
On ___, a syncope workup was initiated. EKG and CXR on
___ were not acutely concerning for evidence of a cause for his
syncopal episode. A carotid ultrasound was similarly
non-concerning. Ancef was initiated on that day per ___
recommendations. A TTE on ___ did not reveal any clear cause
of his syncope but was reassuring for his appropriateness as an
operative candidate.
Mr. ___ went to the OR on ___ and underwent ORIF of
facial fractures of his facial fractures and he tolerated the
procedure well; for full details please see the operative
report. He remained intubated for airway protection in the
context of edema and went to the ICU post-op; he was extubated
on POD#1, went to the floor in good condition, and was resumed
on a full liquid diet.
He initially was unable to tolerate the liquid diet due to
difficulty swallowing as a consequence of the packing in his
nose. He remained on IV fluids for hydration. ___ was
involved in discussion of disposition and it was decided to keep
Mr. ___ in the hospital for the time being. Ultimately,
packing was discontinued by ___ on ___ in the early afternoon
and the patient tolerated a full liquid diet very well after
this action.
On the day of his discharge, foley was removed and the patient
voided multiple times successfully. It was noted that his right
antecubital fossa was inflamed and indurated at his former IV
site and so an ultrasound was ordered which revealed superficial
clot but no DVT; he was advised to apply moderate comfortable

___ with history of presumed ETOH cirrhosis, GERD, BPH,
biliary colic s/p ERCP in ___ with sphincterotomy admitted
___ for recurrent right upper quadrant abdominal pain with
initial concern for cholecystitis. Given his Child ___ Class C,
he was deemed a high-risk surgical candidate and was therefore
managed medically with IV antibiotics. His pain persisted and he
began to develop low-grade fevers with rising T bili, so he went
for ERCP which revealed 2 stones in the Common Bile Duct which
were successfully removed with good drainage. Given these
findings and his clinical presentation, he was diagnosed with
cholangitis. He improved significantly after ERCP and with IV
unasyn and was subsequently narrowed to po ciprofloxacin. He
should continue on this ciprofloxacin through ___.
His blood pressure while inpatient was in the 90-100 systolic
range after resolution of his infection - likely due to poor
nutritional intake while hospitalized and amidst his acute
illness. For this reason, though, his home lasix/spironolactone
regimen and his new nadolol were NOT CONTINUED on discharge -
these should be re-addressed and possibly restarted at his
upcoming appointment on ___ ___.
Of note, he also underwent routine screening EGD for varices
while inpatient which discovered Grade I-II varices, no
intervention needed, with recommendation for nadolol
prophylaxis. He also underwent routine MRI screening which was
negative for HCC.
** TRANSITIONAL ISSUES **:

- check full labs (CBC, basic chemistries, LFTs) on ___ ___ - ensure stable liver function and also renal
function.
- on ___ ___ blood pressure should be
assessed to determine whether he is safe to restart his normal
lasix 40mg daily and spironolactone 25mg daily, as these are
HELD on discharge. Nadolol prophylaxis can also be re-addressed
since this was NOT STARTED on discharge due to his BP
- his home potassium supplements were HELD since his lasix is

s/p LURT in ___ (from his wife), presenting with ___. Hospital
course complicated by BK viremia, and biopsy proven acute
humoral rejection.
.
>> ACTIVE ISSUES:
# Acute Humoral Rejection: Patient initially presented with an
increased creatinine, and there was question of rejection given
outpatient testing which was significant for low titer of donor
specific antibodies. 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
started to undergo dialysis sessions ___ to increased volume,
although urine output consistently stayed between 500-1L per
day. 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. Patient also started to
have resolution with anxyiolitic, thought to be more panic
attack with pain ___ bronchoscopy.
.
# Gout: Patient was continued on allopurinol renal dose without
flare.
.
# History of C. diff: Patient would be classified as severe C.
diff in the past, and was finishing a course of PO vancomycin to
prevent recurrence. His course was extended given antibiotics
while inpatient and higher dose immunosuppression, and was
continued until ___ per ID recommendations. Patient did not
have diarrhea while inpatient and reported resolution of
symptoms.
.
# Anemia: Patient was found to be anemic several times during
hospital stay, requiring multiple transfusions. Anemia was
thought to be ___ to TMA evidenced by hemolysis and peripheral
smear findings. Further, patient's renal biopsy also
demonstrated thrombi as well. Patient also encountered a
dialyzer reaction, and therefore had an acute blood loss as
well. Patient's renal biopsy site was ultrasounded given
increased pain, but not significant for bleeding as well.
Patient remained hemodynamically stable, and will require checks
as an outpatient.
.
>> TRANSITIONAL ISSUES:# Dialysis: Set up ___. Plan for
transition to home HD
# TMA?: Concerns while inpatient for hemolysis, stable H/H.
Continue to trend as outpatient.
# C. diff: Patient completed course with PO Vanc, CTM for
diarrhea.

<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. Small to moderate loculated left pleural effusion, chronicity unknown,

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

nausea and vomiting with intolerance to tube feeds who was
readmitted from nursing facility <12 hours from discharge with
recurrent symptoms and isolated fever.
# Fever
# Abdominal pain
One isolated fever to 101 without new or focal symptoms. 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> |

anterior position of the tunneled right pleural drainage catheter.
New epicardial edema. Even though the volume of right pericardial effusion is
small, it should be monitored with echocardiography to detect any evidence of
developing purulent pericarditis.
The bronchus intermedius is stented. Narrowing of the right main and upper
lobe bronchi has improved. Right hilar mass still occludes right middle and
lower lobe bronchi and those lobes are collapsed. CHEST (PA AND LAT) showed In comparison to ___ radiograph, a pleural catheter is in place in
the right hemi thorax, with a persistent large, loculated right pleural
effusion with associated air fluid level and locules of pleural gas, more
fully evaluated by recent chest CT performed less than 1 hr earlier.
Postoperative and post radiation changes in the right hemi thorax are more

=============
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. She was discharged
on 12.5 bid metoprolol with holding parameters (to be
administered if HR ?60).
#Supratherapeutic INR: The patient was hospitalized ___ ___
for a supratherapeutic INR ___ the setting of poor PO intake, and
was again found to have a supratherapeutic INR during this
admission. 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. After talking
with the PCP, this is a new diagnosis, and according to the PCP
the patient has never experienced CHF symptoms. ___ consider
starting ACE/statin ___ the future after further discussion
regarding patient goals.
#Chest pain: The patient reported chest pain on two occasions,
once while working with ___. Pain was described as dull and
intermittent, ___ the ___ her chest. No SOB. EKG showed no
evidence of ischemia.
CHRONIC ISSUES

HTN: Patient is on metoprolol and amlodipine at home, these
medications were continued and her BPs remained stable.
TRANSITIONAL ISSUES
===================
-Ms. ___ need a CBC checked on ___ to ensure that her
Hgb/Hct is stable (she required 1U PRBC's on ___.
-Patient was discharged on ceftriaxone only with her course
ending on ___.
-Patient's metoprolol should be administered only if HR is >60
to avoid bradycardia; it is important to continue this
medication when possible, however, to prevent A-fib with RVR.
-Patient needs assistance with feeding and should be encouraged
to take po's.
-The patient was started on Apixaban due to INR lability on
warfarin. Will need to continue discussions as an outpatient
with the patient's son regarding risks and benefits.

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> |

Summary
=========
___ year old man with PMH of GERD, CVA, DMII, celiac disease,
pressure ulcer on coccyx, depression and poor hearing who
presented with GI bleeding. Colonoscopy revealed stercoral
ulcer. Hgb stabilized, no further bleeding.
=============================
Acute Medical/Surgical Issues
=============================
# GI Bleed:
# Acute blood loss anemia
Patient presented with hgb drop in the setting of dark stools
without hematemesis with a history of GERD on daily aspirin. No
history of liver disease, malignancy, trauma. Required 3 units
pRBC and 1 unit FFP and H/H stabilized with no further
melena/hematochezia. BPs recovered with blood and fluid. EGD
unrevealing. Colonoscopy on ___ revealed a stercoral ulcer in
the rectum with no signs of bleeding. Biopsies were take which
are pending at discharge. His home aspirin 81 was held but
restarted at discharge.
# Hypotension: initially hypotensive to ___ (baseline is
100s systolic), felt to be related to hypovolemia/blood loss. He
was pancultured without revealing infectious source to
contribute to a sepsis etiology of hypotension. BP improved to
95-105 systolics which appears to be his baseline.
#DMII: Hyperglycemic on admission, unclear etiology but could be
due to stress of infection or bleed. Given that he is NPO, dosed
reduced home insulin regimen of glargine 14U qHS with ISS while
on clear liquid/NPO diet here. Once diet resumed, restarted on
home dose.
CHRONIC
# Coccyx wound: in the setting of bedbound status and potential
malnutrition. Wound does not currently look infected on
admission. CRP low making osteo less likely. Wound care was
consulted and recommended pressure relief per pressure ulcer
guidelines with turn and reposition every ___ hours and prn off
affected area. Nutrition consulted and given celiacs disease,
started on supplementation with vitamin C, zinc sulfate for 14
days, vitamin D, and calcium carbonate.
# Potential HIV
Chart diagnosis without labs or medications by history. Patient
confused and does not know if he has diagnosis. CD4 and HIV
viral load negative making HIV unlikely. Would remove from past
medical history
#CAD primary prevention: continued Atorvastatin 20 mg PO QPM and

ambulance after sustaining mechanical fall face forward while
showering. Reportedly, patient was intubated at OSH for airway
protection after an episode of bloody emesis. Upon arrival she
was sedated and had visible diffuse facial ecchymosis and a lip
laceration. Repeat imaging studies showed interval increase in
prepontine and interpeduncular subarachnoid hemorrhage tracking
inferiorly, and confirmed the presence of a small
intraventricular and a left subdural hemorrhage. Given findings,
the neurosurgery team was consulted and recommended conservative
management and monitoring for further interval changes. Patient
was thus admitted to the ___ for further care.
Regarding her facial injuries, the ___ team was consulted to
assess the lip laceration and dental injuries. Evaluation and
repair was initially difficult given the presence of an
endotracheal tube. A repeat head CT scan showed no interval
changes 24 hours later. Upon stabilization of her respiratory
status, patient was extubated on hospitalization day #1. A
tertiary survey revealed no further injuries. At this point,
___ was able to repair the lip laceration. There was avulsion
of tooth #9, as well as mild mobility in teeth #8 and 10. At
this point, decision was made not to place a dental splint given
time elapsed from injury and questioned benefit from it. She was
advised to stay on a full-liquid diet and follow-up with outside
dentist once medically stable for definitive care.
On hospitalization day #2 patient was started on ciprofloxacin
for a urinary tract infection (confirmed by urinalysis and
cultures positive for Klebsiella). Home medications were
restarted upon diet tolerance, except for Plavix, to be held for
one week post-injuries per neurosurgery recommendations. Given
favorable response, she was transferred to the floor on
hospitalization day #4. Foley catheter was then removed and
patient had several episodes of incontinence. Anticipating
discharge, physical therapy was consulted and determined need

<s>[INST] <<SYS>> Act as a health expert <</SYS>> create brief hospital course of the following text: The pt is a ___ year-old right-handed female with history of ADHD
on stratera who presents with onset of slurred speech and left
sided speech this afternoon.
She was in her usual state of health until this afternoon/this
morning when she was with friends in a car smoking K2. She felt
like she was having an "anxiety attack" and went home. ___
describes shortness of breath, palpitations and says she "felt
like [she] was going to die of a heart attack". 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. He called another friend who picked her
up and took her to the ED in ___. Per mom, she thinks she
was left at the ED without much of a history being given.
.
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. Radiology showed Overall, no significant change in mass effect on the right
lateral ventricle compared to the prior study of ___. No hemorrhage
seen. No evidence of herniation. Radiology showed Unchanged appearance of a large right MCA territory infarct, with
continued mild effacement of the right lateral ventricle. Slight deformity on
the right uncus. Consider close followup. No new mass effect or hemorrhagic
conversion. Asymmetry in the lateral atlanto-axial distances is likely
positional and can be correlated clinically for significance. The patient was diagnosed with CEREBRAL ART OCCLUS W/INFARCT, UNSPEC HEMIPLEGIA UNSPEC SIDE, DRUG ABUSE NEC-UNSPEC. The patient was treated with PICC line placement.. At the time of discharge, the patient had Right middle cerebral artery stroke..

ADHD on atomoxetine, on oral contraceptive therapy, and a
history of tobacco use who presented with dysarthria and left
sided weakness with a subsequent finding of a large right MCA
territory. This notably occurred in the setting of synthetic
cannabis abuse (smoking K2). She was found to have a mid-M1
occlusion of unknown etilogy with otherwise normal blood vessels
of the neck and head. She was initially admitted to the SDU but
overnight developed a headache. An NCHCT revealed 4mm of
parafalcine herniation and she was started on hyperosmolar
therapy with mannitol. She was transferred to the ICU for closer
monitoring.
.
Her NCHCTs remained stable for the next few days (except for
small amounts of hemorrhagic transformation), and her exam
continued to improve with more wakefulness, attention, and
improved speech. She remains hemiplegic with no movement on the
LEFT side, including to noxious stimuli.
.
She was found to have a PFO on her TTE, but negative lower
extremity dopplers and an MRI of her pelvic region did not
reveal any venous clots (anticoagulation is not an option for
her at this time). Hypercoagulability labs were sent, and some
remain pending at the time of discharge (see above results
section). These can be followed up at her appointment with Dr.

.
She conditionally passed her bedside dysphagia screen but
requires 1:1 supervision and soft consistency solids. She was
left-sided plegic when initially starting physical and
occupational therapy, and remained this way throughout her stay

# Fatigue/Confusion: Patient reported to have acute confusion
night prior to admission, and to be lethargic morning of
presentation. Apparently self-resolved spontaneously, as patient
was at her baseline cognitive status on arrival to the medicine
floor. Delirium in this patient with reported dementia has a
wide differential and most commonly may include medication
effect, infectious etiology, electrolyte abnormality or other
metabolic disturbances, seizures also considered. No new
medications per report, however patient is on clonazepam which
certainly could cause delirium in the elderly as well as
amitriptyline. These medications were held and should be used
cautiously or at decreased doses if indicated. Dig level was
also checked and was normal. She had no symptoms or signs of
infection including clean u/a and negative CXR along with any
clinical symptoms of infection. The rash on her abdomen appears
more consistent with irritation dermatitis or candidal rash
rather than cellulitis. Basic chem panel was all within normal
limits. Patient lacked any reported worrisome symptoms for
seizures such as myoclonus, tongue biting, urine incontinence,
though difficult to know whether post-ictal state was possible.

131 now intubated and sedated after apneic episode with
respiartory failure likely secondary to toxic metabolic
encephalopathy.
#Hypercarbic Respiratory Failure
Patient with respiratory failure secondary to altered mental
status and inability to protect the airway. Hypercarbia now
improved with intubation with normal pH and pCO2. Patient was
quickly weaned from mechanical ventilation and extubated
successfully and on RA prior to discharge.
#Toxic Metabolic Encephalopathy
Patient found down with bottle of EtOH with pinpoint pupils
unresponsive to narcan. Serum EtOH level of 131 supports EtOH
intoxication. Tox screen otherwise negative with negative CT
head. Upon awakening patient endorsed taking a half tab of
suboxone with alcohol. Infectious etiology also less likely
given absence of leukocytosis, normal UA, and normal CXR. Mental
status improved post-extubation.

Patient noted to develop pancytopenia on labs while in the ICU
likely secondary to bone marrow suppression from alcohol use and
dilutional effect from IVF since all counts were down.We
requested that patient stay to have repeat CBC to ensure
stability but patient refused to stay for blood draw. Otherwise
was stable without bleeding so recommended he should have this
rechecked upon follow up as outpatient if not willing to stay.
