Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: allergies: no known allergies / adverse drug reactions attending: chief complaint: wound drainage major surgical or invasive procedure: aspiration of right frontal csf collection , , history of present illness: this is a 66 year old man who underwent craniotomy for resection of frontal tumor on . he had been doing well but for two weeks he has noticed drainage on his pillow when he awakes in the morning. his wife also noted a fluid collection for about one week. he has had no fevers and there is no erythema along his incision. past medical history: hld hypothyroidism seizures craniotomy for tumor social history: past tobacco use (1 ppd x 34 years, quit 20 years ago). drinks vodka nightly. denies illicit drug use. manages a landscaping firm. married and lives with his wife.

head noncontrast: 1. new subgaleal fluid collection in the scalp overlying the right craniotomy site. 2. post-right frontal lobectomy, with resolved post-operative pneumocephalus. no superimposed acute intracranial process detected. cxr as compared to the previous radiograph, the patient has received a right pectoral port-a-cath. the port-a-cath is in correct position. there are no complications, notably no pneumothorax. otherwise, the radiograph is unchanged. no acute lung parenchymal changes. no pleural effusions. no pneumonia, no pulmonary edema. normal hilar and mediastinal contours, normal size of the cardiac silhouette. csf cytology negative for malignant cells. cxr the right port-a-cath is again visualized. there is no pneumothorax. there is a new area of opacity in the left lower lung that could represent volume loss or infiltrate. small amount of volume loss in the right lower lung as well. overall, the appearance has worsened compared to the study from two days prior ct head 1. unchanged size of a subgaleal fluid collection communicating with the epidural space, however, neighboring increased soft tissue swelling is present.this may represent a pseudomeningocele. 2. post-right frontal craniotomy changes. no superimposed acute intracranial process detected. no new mass effect. ct head unchanged appearance of a right frontal pseudomeningocele/extra-axial fluid collection. there is expected mild enhancement of the overlying subcutaneous soft tissues, with some stranding and swelling posteriorly. no abnormal intracranial enhancement is detected. while no definite signs of an abscess are seen, infection/inflammation of this collection cannot be excluded by imaging alone. ecg sinus tachycardia, rate 106. left atrial abnormality. the tracing is otherwise, within normal limits ct head stable to slightly decreased right frontal extra-axial fluid collection, with minimally increased size of right frontal subgaleal fluid collection. cta chest tiny, non-occlusive, marginal, filling defects in the subsegmental branches of right upper and left lower lobe are likely small pulmonary emboli, not necessarily acute. no evidence of emboli in main, lobar, and segmental branches. cxr in comparison with study of , there is a little overall change. continued opacification at the left base with poor visualization of the costophrenic angle is consistent with atelectatic changes in the left lower lobe and possibl small effusion. no vascular congestion or acute focal pneumonia. port-a-cath position is unchanged. le us no evidence of deep vein thrombosis in either leg cxr cardiac size is top normal accentuated by low lung volumes. left lower lobe atelectasis has improved. there is mild vascular congestion. there is no pneumothorax. right port-a-cath tip is in unchanged position. there are no enlarging pleural effusions. cxr reason for exam: fever and low saturations. cardiac size is top normal. the lungs are clear. there is no pneumothorax or pleural effusion. the right port-a-cath tip is in the right atrium, which is difficult to visualize. admission labs: 07:30pm blood wbc-5.3 rbc-4.16* hgb-13.3*

subgaleal fluid collection. aspiration of the collection was performed on at the bedside in a sterile fashion. he head was wrapped with coban. the gram stain showed no poly's and no organisms. on 5.4 the colelction had reaccumulated so ti was again tapped and the fluid was sent. the head was then wrapped again. the fluid showed 2+ gpcs in clusters and staph aureus. he was started on vancomycin and ceftaz and id was consulted. his mental status declined and his head wrap was loosened. on he was febrile to 102 and he was panculutred. he had a head ct with adn without contrast which showed no suigns of infection but persistent fluid collection. on 5.6 he had periorbital edema and a vanomycin rough of 15. he had blood cultures sent as well and his vancomycin was discontinued and he was started on nafcillin. on his o2 sats decreased to the 80's, was febrile to 102 axillary, and tachycardic to 117. he had a cta chest and head ct and was sent to the unit. prelim reads of his cta chest showed pe so he was started on a heparin gtt. final read of the cta chest showed rul and lll subsegmental non-occlusive pe likely subacute/chronic. on his exam was improved and had lenis which were

lobe meaasuring 4.4 cm x 3 cm showing no interval change. also, surrounding vasogenic edema noted around lesion. the lesion produces mass effect compressing the adjacent occipital of the r lateral ventricle. previously seen hemorrhagic lesion mostly in the r occipital lobe is unchanged. brief hospital course: # delirium/hepatic encephalopathy: hepatic versus other etiology. although ammonia and lfts were elevated on admission, pattern not consistent with alcoholic cirrhosis, considered micrometastases to liver. no clear signs of infection, hepatitis serologies only showed prior immunity. considered effect of brain met and surrounding vasogenic edema although neuro-onc evaluation felt this was unlikely due to minimal mass effect and no midline shift. on discussion with hepatology, decadron and xrt likely overstressed pts liver, causing acute decompensation. he was started on aggressive lactulose and rifaxmin (initially required and ngt to administer this, but pulled this out within 24 hours and as mental status was improving to the point of being able to take pos safely, it was not replaced), and his mental status gradually improved significantly. # non-small cell lung ca: followed by providers at osh: medical oncologist (dr. who did the initial inpatient consultation when his diagnosis was made), radiation oncologist (dr. ), thoracic surgeon (dr. at hospital ). initial plan was for wbxrt to brain met and xrt to lung nodule, with plans for cyberknife to brain met (at that time, it was thought to be unresectable), then resection of lung nodule. had completed 5 out of 10 sessions of wbxrt. given possibility of liver mets, it was essential to establish whether or not there is diffuse disease elsewhere as this may impact decision to resect lung lesion (see below). the patient's family and dr. requested input from heme-onc service to discuss further treatment options given his liver disease and hemorrhagic brain met. thoracic surgery was consulted and felt the patient would not benefit for thoracic surgery. # cirrhosis with possible liver mets: cirrhosis was initially presumed to be from his history of heavy alcohol use, although the ast was not elevated more than the alt as would be expected. hepatitis panel was negative. the possibility of diffuse metastatic disease in the liver was considered. micrometastases may be giving liver a nodular appearance on imaging, leading to a picture of pseudocirrhosis. echogenic mass in liver seen on us was not visualized on ct because it was done without contrast due to contrast allergy. mri showed a lesion in segment 6, but per outpatient pet-ct report from , nothing lit up in the liver, so nontargeted us-guided liver biopsy was done . this showed cirrhosis but no evidence of tumor. # brain metastasis: pt has a hemorrhagic r occipital brain met. ct scan here of the head showed a significant amount of bleeding, and it wais unclear if this is increased or stable from prior. in setting of coagulopathy, this may have worsened. he has had wbxrt treatments by dr. (rad-onc, in , ). admitted on day 7 of decadron. discussed overall plan of care with dr. coverage on admission, and although pts thoracic surgeon has plans for potential cure, his radiation oncologist does not think pt will likely be curable, especially now with liver decompensation. patient's neuro deficit (left visual field cut) has been stable, repeat ct 24 hours after admission as well as mri showed stable lesion. dr. coverage recommended decadron taper on admission: 4 mg tid for 3-4 days, then taper to 4 mg for 3-4 days, then taper to 4 mg daily for 3-4 days, then 2 mg for 3-4 days, and then 2 mg qod for 3-4 days. per rad-onc here, no role for continuing wbxrt now given liver workup and possible resection of brain met; per discussion with dr. , he agrees with holding xrt in brain and lung for now. neurosurgery was consulted and felt the mass was resectable. dr. , dr. , and neuro-onc here (dr. all agreed to the resection, so he was transferred to the neurosurgery service on for the operation which he tolerated without difficulty he was monitored in the pacu and was transferred to the surgical floor. he remained neurologically intact without any deficits. # coagulopathy: inr elevated, likely from liver decompensation. he required aggressive ffp and platelets before procedures. heparin sc was held. # thrombocytopenia: likely from liver decompensation, splenic sequestration. he required platelet transfusions before procedures. # splenic infarct: seen on mri, may be related to hypercoagulable state from malignancy or thrombosis (cirrhotics may still be vulnerable to thromboses off of anticoagulation, but he has been ambulating), no evidence of afib to suggest that as an embolic source. he did not have pain or fever, and anticoagulation would not be started anyway because of hemorrhagic brain met. his symptoms were monitored. # h/o alcoholism: pt has h/o alcoholism, last drink 4 days pta. no signs of withdrawal. he was given thiamine and folate. a ciwa scale was ordered but he did not require any benzos. # dehydration: poor po intake for several days prior to admission, bun/cr ratio elevated on admission, hct likely hemoconcentrated. # hyperglycemia: no history of diabetes. hyperglycemia likely due to decadron, although given degree of blood sugar elevation, he likely had an element of undiagnosed diabetes before. his elevated sugars may also be exacerbated by family bringing in outside food and greater than normal po intake when he has not been npo. lantus and riss were started and titrated up as necessary. # hypertension: continued metoprolol # macrocytosis: b12/folate normal/high the patient was transferred to the neurosurgery service and underwent craniotomy for tumor resection. the surgery went well and he recovered in the pacu overnight. he was then transferred to the neurosurgery floor. the patient worked with pt and ot who felt that he was unsafe to go home due to his cognitive deficits. therefore he was screened for rehab. the patient required oxygen therapy while on the neurosurgery service and was unable to be weaned off. he will continue this at rehab. the patient will resume his radiation treatments at cancer center for the lung and brain. thoracic surgery was consulted who felt that lung resection was not possible due to the stage 4 lung ca. additionally palliative care was consulted who assisted in the plan for discharge to rehab with the daily transfer to the radiation center. his coags were followed as his plts continued to trend down (46 on discharge), hem onc was consulted and they did not recommend transfusing until it less than 10k. his inr was trending up, hepatology was consulted and did not recommend reversing unless evidence of bleeding. on discharge his neuro exam was normal with a flat affect, and short term memory problems. medications on admission: decadron 4 mg four times a day metoprolol 25 mg daily prilosec discharge medications: 1. thiamine hcl 100

Medical Report: allergies: lasix / metolazone / zeroxolyn attending: chief complaint: melena, abdominal pain, decreased hct major surgical or invasive procedure: egd with clips/cauterization egd without intervention colonoscopy history of present illness: mr. is an 81 year old man with a h/o thalamic hemorrhagic stroke 1 year ago, recent gi bleed s/p egd showing 3 duodenal ulcers who presents from rehab with melanotic stools, hct drop from 29->21. the patient was recently admitted from for melena and hct drop, and egd revealed 3 duodenal ulcers. he was given 1 unit of blood and discharged to rehab with plans for outpatient colonoscopy. biopsies were negative for h pylori, cmv, but did reveal infection, which has not yet been treated. since then he has complained of periumbilical pain, nonradiating, dull and achy that does not change with eating meals. he has not had nausea or vomitting. he denies recent nsaid or alcohol use. he does report melena. he was seen by the md on call at rehab who found his hct to drop from 29 to 21.5, and therefore sent him to the ed. in the ed, initial vs were: 98.3 84 138/74 16 100% ra. an ng lavage revealed red flecks of blood in clear fluid. two peripheral ivs were placed and he was given pantoprazole 80mg iv once followed by a drip at 8mg/hr. gi was consulted who recommended egd in the am. although he was never hypotensive, tachycardic or actively bleeding, he was admitted to the out of concern for impending gi bleed. on arrival to the , the patient was comfortable but complaining of mild periumbilical pain. the patient was subsequently stabilized in the medical icu with blood transfusions and he underwent egd with local therapy for the bleeding ulcer site. once he was hemodynamically stable, the patient was transferred

hemorrhagic stroke 1 year ago, recent gi bleed s/p egd showing 3 duodenal ulcers who presents from rehab with melanotic stools, hct drop from 29->21, eventually underwent an egd showing a bleeding vessel in the duodenum with successful hemostasis. he had a number of blood transfusions with a few more melanotic stools and hct drops throughout the hospitalization. a repeat egd showed healing ulcers and no evidence of bleed. # gi bleed: he had 3 duodenal ulcers on a previous hospitalization. a repeat egd () showed evidence of an active bleeding vessel in the middle of an ulcer on the lateral wall of the duodenum. several unsuccessful attempts to place hemostat clips were made. the vessel was eventually cauterized and hemostasis was achieved. he was treated with high dose pantoprazole. he remained hemodynamically stable. he received 2 packed rbcs and had a stable hematocrit for a few days. he was transitioned to an oral ppi and transferred to the general medical . he then had an episode of melena with a 4 point hematocrit drop. his hemodynamics were again stable. his hematocrit remain stable and uptrended for the next couple of days. however, he again had melena and had a 4 point hematocrit drop. due to this he was transfused 1 unit of packed rbcs with appropriate increase in hematocrit. he had a repeat egd with improvement of ulcers. given that no source of bleeding was found, he was prepped and underwent colonoscopy which did not show any area of bleeding but did show a polyp. he should have a repeat colonoscopy in 6 months for removal of this polyp. his hematocrit was stable for >72 hours at the time of discharge (and was increasing). he should get repeat hematocrit checks twice weekly for the next couple of weeks to make sure his hematocrit remains stable. this should be reported to the medical staff at rehab. # epigastric pain: he continued to have epigastric pain, which was somewhat improved throughout the admission. he was to continue ppi. # heart failure: the patient has a contraindication to acei. his ethacrynic acid was held during the admission. he was euvolemic and the medication was not re-started. he should be evaluated at rehab as this medication may need to be restarted in the future. # urinary incontinence: the patient was noted to have urinary incontinence without evidence of acute infection. we received information in collateral that this is not a new condition. he was checked for post-void residuals by bladder scanner on several occasions, which did not exceed 500cc. this was monitored throughout his admission. # urine cytology from prior admission: we were aware of his urine cytology result concerning for atypical cells on a recent admission. this would warrant further work-up including possible urology evaluation and consideration for cystoscopy if that were in keeping with the patient's wishes. given the acuity of his condition at this time, we did not specifically address this finding while he was an inpatient, and suggest it be re-addressed when his condition stabilizes. # bullous pemphigoid: well controlled on prednisone at 20mg, which was continued without change. # htn: due to initial bleeding, and later decreased oral intake, his amlodipine and hydralazine were held throughout much of his admission. the hydralazine was restarted at the time of discharge. his blood pressures will likely tolerate restarting amlodipine as well, however, i will defer this to rehab medical staff. # h/o stroke: his deficits were noted and confirmed from his prior stroke. he was not noted to have recrudescence beyond his baseline. # a fib: well rate controlled. not felt to be a good anticoagulation candidate likely due to major hemorrhagic stroke and also major gi bleeding. # code: confirmed full transitional issues: --monitor hct on oral twice daily ppi with pantoprazole, and consider if repeat endoscopy will be needed based on course --atypical cells in urine cytology will require consideration for follow-up once other conditions stabilized. --continue to address goals of care with patient, as able, and family, given multiple recent admissions and overall deconditioning.

discharge instructions: it was a pleasure to care for during this admission. as you and your family are aware, you were admitted for bleeding from your stomach despite taking pills against acid at your facility. you had a procedure where the bleeding site was treated and clipped, and you then stopped bleeding temporarily. you did require blood transfusions, as you lost a significant amount of blood from this ulcer. you required icu care early in your admission. on the floor, you had two episodes of bleeding, one of which required another transfusion. you were treated with another blood

gastroenterologist, dr. (the gastroenterology office will contact you to set up this appointment). you will have a repeat colonoscopy in 6 months. the appointment is listed below and is with dr. . you were noted to have urinary incontinence, which your family tells us is usual for you. we also know that from a prior admission, you had tests in your urine that revealed atypical cells that could represent a malignancy. you should speak with dr. or dr. the doctors at the facility about seeing a urologist to further evaluate this condition, once you recover from this illness. we treated you with intravenous acid blocking medication, in addition to your procedure. these medications were changed to higher doses of pill medications after several days, at higher doses than you were taking when you came to the hospital. you should continue on this medication (pantoprazole) for at least 4-8 weeks, and until you speak with your doctors to if you need any further tests. you were started on fluconazole, because you had some fungus in your small bowel which may have been contributing to your ulcers. this medication should be continued for 5 more days. for the next two weeks, please have your hematocrit checked twice a week to make sure it remains stable. we made the following changes to your medications: -start pantoprazole at 40mg twice daily -stop amlodipine (this can be restarted once you do not show any more bleeding) -stop ethacrynic acid (you did not need this medication while you were inpatient, you may need to resume this medication in the future) -hold ibuprofen and other nsaids -start fluconazole for 5 more days followup instructions: you should see your primary care physician when you leave rehab, within one week. in the interim, you will be seen by the physician at the facility. you should proceed with the following previously-scheduled appointment for your kidneys: department: west clinic when: wednesday at 4:00 pm with: , md building: de building ( complex) campus: west best parking: garage department: endo suites when: friday at 9:00 am department: digestive disease center when: friday at 9:00 am with: , md building: building (/ complex) campus: east best parking: main garage procedure: colonoscopy endoscopic control of gastric or duodenal bleeding endoscopic control of gastric or duodenal bleeding diagnoses: esophageal reflux mitral valve disorders congestive heart failure, unspecified long-term (current) use of steroids acute posthemorrhagic anemia diabetes mellitus without mention of complication, type ii or unspecified type, not stated as uncontrolled chronic kidney disease, stage iv (severe) hypertensive chronic kidney disease, unspecified, with chronic kidney disease stage i through stage iv, or unspecified gout, unspecified atrial fibrillation other chronic pulmonary heart diseases chronic systolic heart failure late effects of cerebrovascular disease, hemiplegia affecting unspecified side chronic or unspecified duodenal ulcer with hemorrhage, without mention of obstruction urinary incontinence, unspecified pemphigoid candidal enteritis Answer: The patient is high likely exposed to

head ct : 1. diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage with a small amount of intraventricular blood layering in the occipital horns. the configuration and extent of the blood is similar compared to the earlier study. no new hydrocephalus. 2. no evidence of intracranial aneurysm in the arteries of the anterior or posterior circulation. atherosclerotic narrowing in all the intracranial vessels without high-grade stenosis or occlusion. 3. scalp hematoma along the right frontal convexity with enhancement on the arterial phase. ct torso : 1. right renal subcapsular hematoma as above with mass effect on the atrophic right kidney and delayed excretion of contrast from the right kidney as compared to the left. right perinephric stranding raises concern for perinephric hemorrhage/hematoma. small linear high density just medial to the mid pole of the right kidney may be within a vessel, but on single phase, difficult to exclude active extravasation, arterial or venous. consider patient return for delayed ct scanning for further evaluation. the above findings were discussed with dr. at 9:15 p.m. on . 2. right-sided rib fractures as above. 3. trace right pleural effusion. 4. borderline aneurysmal dilatation of the infrarenal abdominal aorta and the right common iliac artery. mildly dilated ascending aorta, as above. right wrist : 1. 2 mm bone fragment dorsal to the proximal carpal row on the lateral view with overlying dorsal soft swelling, raises concern for a triquetral fracture. 2. osteoarthritic changes. ct c spine : 1. non-displaced fracture through the base of an osteophyte from the right anterior superior endplate of c6, most likely chronic. minimal anterolisthesis at c4-5 and c5-6, more prominent on the hospital study than on the current study. if there is a concern for ligamentous injury, mri would be helpful. 2. intracranial hemorrhage, detailed in the same-day head ct and head cta reports. 3. paraseptal emphysema at the imaged lung apices. 4. fluid versus polypoid mucosal thickening in the left sphenoid sinus. cardiac echo : suboptimal image quality. the left atrium is normal in size. there is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. the left ventricular cavity size is normal. overall left ventricular systolic function is probably mildly depressed (lvef= 40 %) with mild global hypokinesis and regional infero-lateral severe hypokinesis. there is no ventricular septal defect. right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. the aortic root is mildly dilated at the sinus level. the ascending aorta is mildly dilated. the aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened (?#). there is no aortic valve stenosis. mild (1+) aortic regurgitation is seen. the mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. there is no mitral valve prolapse. trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. the pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. cta pelvis : 1. unchanged right subcapsular renal hematoma without evidence of active extravasation. there is no evidence of undelying mass lesion. 2. right perinephric stranding is stable in size and appearance from prior study of . 3. small pleural effusion on the right and minimal left pleural effusion. 4. stable borderline aneurysmal dilatation of the infrarenal abdominal aorta. cta head/neck : no aneurysm, moderate right vertebral artery stenosis, moderate -severe left vertebral artery stenosis, mild right ica stenosis, moderate right subclavian artery stenosis. head ct : diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage with similar overall appearance compared to prior. eeg : abnormality #1: there are frequent bursts of diffuse theta slowing throughout the awake portion of the record. background: an 8.5-9 hz alpha rhythm with a normal anterior-posterior gradient was observed during the awake portion of the recording. hyperventilation: was not performed. intermittent photic stimulation: was not performed. sleep: the patient was observed to be awake and drowsy during the recording. cardiac monitor: showed a generally regular rhythm. impression: this is an abnormal routine eeg due the presence of frequent bursts of diffuse theta slowing during the awake portions of the recording. this pattern is consistent with a mild diffuse encephalopathy. there were no focal abnormalities or epileptiform features noted. brief hospital course: mr. was evaluated by the trauma team in the emergency room and scans were reviewed. he was admitted to the trauma icu for close neurological evaluation, serial hematocrits in light of his perinephric hematoma and for pain control secondary to right rib fractures. he was also evaluated by the hand service for his right wrist fracture and a splint was applied. he should not bear weight on the right arm. neurosurgery saw the patient and was unsure if the sah was traumatic vs. aneurysmal. patient then underwent an angio on which demonstrated no aneurysm and moderate right and moderate to severe left vertebral artery stenosis. also some mild r ica (prox cavernous segment) and moderate stenosis of left subclavian artery proximal to left vert in origin. neurology was then consulted for potential stroke as the cause for loc and for the vertebral artery stenosis. his neurologic exam was unchanged and he had no obvious seizures. an eeg was done which essentially showed diffuse encephalopathy. mr. was transferred to the trauma floor with a stable hematocrit in the 23-25 range and was able to continue with his hemodialysis as scheduled, tues/thurs/sat. his last hd was . his hemodynamics remained stable and his pain was well controlled. he was able to use the incentive spirometer effectively. his aicd was interrogated to assure it was functioning appropriately and no problems were identified. he remained in nsr without ectopy and had no further syncope in the hospital. from a neurologic standpoint, mr. was started on dilantin for seizure prophylaxis at the time of admission. due to their high suspicion of the syncopal events precipitated by seizures they would like to continue anti seizure medication indefinitely. currently for ease of management his dilantin is being weaned off and his last dose will be . additionally he will start keppra 500 mg daily on and on hemodialysis days he should receive an additional 250 mg post dialysis. the neurology and neurosurgical services will continue to follow him as an out patient. the physical therapy service evaluated mr. and he was well below his baseline functioning; thus acute rehab was recommended to help him regain strength, balance and hopefully maintain his independence. medications on admission: : aspirin, plavix 75mg daily, carvedilol 25mg , hydralazine 50mg , nephrocaps 1 cap daily, omeprazole 40mg , paroxetine 20mg daily,

evaluated him for ? sbo. they did not see signs of obstruction, felt that he had likely ileus from progressive metastatic disease and is not a surgical candidate. ngt was placed for comfort. labs were notable for k 6.0 without ekg changes. he was given d50 and insulin. he also received solumedrol 125mg iv, vanco 1gm, zosyn 4.5gm, combivent nebs x2 and 2l ns. . currently the patient states his breathing feels much better. he continues to have some abdominal discomfort with exam. he denies chest pain, fever, cough, nausea or vomiting. he reports that the ngt is uncomfortable when he swallows. past medical history: 1) cad s/p mi in by ekg diagnosis, no admission, no symptoms, ett/mibi showing partially reversible defect in rca distribution. no interventions performed. 2) htn 3) hyperlipidemia 4) copd 5) djd 6) thoracic artery aneursym, stable 7) nonsmall cell lung cancer (see below) oncologic history: mr. was in his usoh until when he presented with hemoptysis and weight loss of 10 pounds over previous 1-2 months. he had a ct scan of the chest on and it showed a 4.1 x 4.0 right hilar mass with subcarinal lymphadenopathy, 19 mm right axillary lymph node as well as multiple right lower lobe and left lower lobe nodules concerning for lung cancer. on , he was admitted to with chest pain and ruled out for a non-st elevation mi. he was seen by the hematology-oncology consult service while in the hospital and underwent fna of the right axillary lymph node, the pathology of which showed nonsmall cell cancer, squamous cell type. he was discharged on the third of and then on , he had a bronchoscopy done for evaluation of his hemoptysis as well as bronchial biopsy and the cytology confirmed metastatic nonsmall cell lung cancer. he has

#. shortness of breath: this was likely multifactorial, with contributions from copd, extensive lung cancer disease burden, possible post-obstructive pneumonia, and increased abdominal girth. cta chest negative for pe but showed tumor invasion of bronchi and pulmonary artery. ng tube for decompression was placed, vancomycin and zosyn were started, and he was given standing nebulizer treatments and supplemental o2. he underwent two 2-l paracenteses with some improvement in shortness of breath. several days into his hospital course he developed episodes of chest pain and increased shortness of breath without ekg changes, responsive to nitroglycerin and morphine. these were thought to represent unstable angina with a possible contribution from aspiration events. goals of care were discussed with the palliative care team and eventually revised to include comfort measures only. antibiotics were stopped. morphine was given to help with shortness of breath and nitroglycerin as needed for comfort. . #. abdominal distention: found to have new ascites in setting of worsening metastatic disease to liver and omentum. also found to have ileus in setting of this and combination of these is likely contributing to his worsening discomfort. surgery evaluated pt. in ed and were not concerned for sbo. ngt was placed for comfort. he was found to have c diff, which was treated with po

who presented to the emergency room with weakness, nausea and cough found to have colitis and aspiration pneumonia. sepsis/altered mental status: patient initially presented with confusion, hypotension, leukocytosis and bandemia, and elevated lactate. initial imaging studies revealed evidence of a right sided pneumonia in addition to potential colitis. he initially required significant iv fluids but did not required pressors. he was initially started on broad spectrum antibiotics with vancomycin, zosyn and flagyl for hospital acquired pneumonia and possible clostridium difficle. subsequent blood, urine, stool and peritoneal cultures were negative and his antibiotics were changed to levofloxacin and flagyl with plans to complete a 10 day course for aspiration pneumonia. aspiration pneumonia: patient presented with cough and worsening hypoxia on admission. chest ct on admission showed bilateral pleural effusions and rml pneumonia. viral respiratory screen was negative. urine legionella was negative. sputum cultures were unable to be obtained. he did not require intubation. he was treated with levofloxacin and flagyl to complete a ten day course. his oxygen was weaned off and he is currently statting 95% on room air. elevated lactate: on presentation the patient had a lactate of 8.0. it was felt that this was multifactorial secondary to liver disease, haart medications and hypotension. his haart medications were initially held and he received aggressive ivf. his lactate trended down to 2.4. his haart medications were restarted and his lactate did not worsen. hypoglycemia: on presentation the patient was noted to have hypoglycemia in the setting of sepsis and end stage liver disease. the etiology was unclear but resolved as his illness improved. end stage liver disease: secondary to hepatitis c with a history of encephalopathy and varices. no history of sbp. not on list secondary to pulmonary hypotension. his propranolol and lactulose were initially held in the setting of diarrhea and hypotension but were subsequently restarted. he was also continued on rifaximin. given his weight loss and poor nutritional status calorie counts were performed and it was determined that he needed supplemental nutrition via tube feeds to satisfy his caloric intake. he will receive 16 hours per day of tube feeds at rehab. anemia/thrombocytopenia: likely related to liver disease. blood counts near recent baseline of hematocrit (25-30) and platelets (80-12). acute renal failure: creatinine on presentation was 1.2 from baseline on 0.6 in the setting of volume depletion and sepsis. this resolved with ivf. ? seizure: etiology of initial presentation unclear and seizure was considered in the differential, particularly given his hypoglycemia. he had no focal neurologic deficits on exam. he was initially kept on seizure precautions but these were discontinued after over a week without seizure activity noted. his blood sugars were monitored closely. no further workup indicated at this time. hiv: most recent cd4 count 322 in , viral load undetectable. concern in icu that elevated lactate might be secondary to hiv medications and his haart medications were reheld. they were restarted after his elevated lactate resolved without complication. pulmonary hypertension: documented on right heart catheterization . mean pa pressures 40 with 40% reduction in vascular resistance with oxygen but not no. he will be started on sildenafil as an outpatient but is awaiting prior authorization for this medication. he

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: allergies: sulfa (sulfonamides) attending: chief complaint: respiratory failure major surgical or invasive procedure: intubation history of present illness: 88m pmh htn, transferred from hospital ed where he had been admitted for respiratory distress, s/p intubation by ems. per his daughters, he was in his usoh, other than a uri with mild cough, up until this afternoon, when in the evening he called his daughter c/o acute onset shortness of breath. when they found him, he appeared to have "facial swelling," felt warm, and was struggling to breath. ems arrived and intubated him. prior to this event, he reportedly had no f/c/ns, chest pain or sob. he was very active, and reportedly walked 2 miles without difficulty 2 weeks ago. * in ed, he was initially found to be hypertensive to 239/130. he was noted to be very agitated and was given initially 4mg ativan iv, then succinylcholine 60mg iv. he was then given tylenol 650mg, toradol 30mg, zosyn 3.375 iv. he continued to be agitated, and was given 4mg ativan more, as well as diprivan 20mg bolus then drip at 10mcg/kg/hr. abg prior to transfer 7.30/56/477. . on further review after extubation, he had noted

prolongation. occasional ventricular ectopy. no previous tracing available for comparison. . echo : the left atrium is mildly dilated. the right atrium is moderately dilated. there is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. the left ventricular cavity size is normal. overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (lvef>55%). transmitral doppler and tissue velocity imaging are consistent with grade i (mild) lv diastolic dysfunction. right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. the ascending aorta is mildly dilated. the aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened. there is a minimally increased gradient consistent with minimal aortic valve stenosis. no aortic regurgitation is seen. the mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. no mitral regurgitation is seen. the left ventricular inflow pattern suggests impaired relaxation. there is no pericardial effusion. . single ap portable view chest : ett tip is 4.3 cm above the carina. ng tube is out of view below the diaphragm. there is mild pulmonary edema. left lower lobe retrocardiac opacity is consistent with atelectasis and/or pneumonia. note is made that the right cp angle was not included on the film. there is a suggestion of small left pleural effusion. . ct of the chest without contrast : there is a moderate right pleural effusion and small-to-moderate left pleural effusion, simple in nature. there is no pericardial effusion. there is no consolidation or pulmonary edema. there is a 1 mm opacity along the inferior right major fissure, possibly representing a tiny subpleural lymph node. no other nodular opacities are visualized. the central airways are patent to the level of the segmental bronchi bilaterally. there are calcifications of the aortic valve, and coronary artery calcifications. no lymph nodes within the axillae, mediastinum or hila meet ct size criteria for pathologic enlargement. in the imaged portion of the upper abdomen, the visualized portions of the liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas and adrenal glands are unremarkable. the examination is not tailored for evaluation of the structures, and assessment is limited without iv contrast. bone windows: there are no suspicious osteolytic or sclerotic lesions. irregularity of the left scapula may be related to a remote injury. coronal reformatted images were generated and confirmed the described findings. impression: 1. moderate right pleural effusion and small-to-moderate left pleural effusion, simple in nature. no pulmonary edema at the current time. 2. calcifications of the coronary arteries, aorta and aortic valve. brief hospital course: 1) respiratory failure: suspect secondary to bronchospasm in the setting of parainfluenza tracheobronchitis with perhaps an initial component of chf. patient was extubated on hospital day # 3. his bronchospasm was managed with combivent and flovent inhalers. he also received 5 days of levofloxacin for question of bacterial superinfection. urine legionella and sputum culture were unrevealing. patient received pneumovax prior to discharge and was up to date on the influenza vaccine. he was stable on room air at the time of discharge without wheezing. . 2) left sided chf: tte showed ef >55%. creatinine bumped with diuresis despite mild chf noted on initial cxr. i suspect the failure was due to his underlying pulmonary process. he received initial diuresis in the icu but this was not continued given a rise in his creatinine. on the day of discharge, he appears euvolemic and his blood pressure is well controlled. . 3) acute renal failure: resolved prior to discharge. fena <1% consistent with pre-renal state. likely due to initial diuresis. . 4) cad: patient has a history of non-flow limiting cad on cath. he denied any chest pain but did have a bump in troponins but with a negative ckmb. perhaps this was due to some demand ischemia. no focal wall motion abnormalities on echo and patient denied any complaints of exertional symptoms prior to admission. he was unable to continue on an asa due to hematuria but is on as statin and beta blocker. . 5) htn: blood pressure improved with the addition of amlodipine and an increase in his beta blocker. . 6) bph: finasteride . 7) hematuria: patient had foley in place in the icu to monitor i/o. this was discontinued on the floor but patient failed his voiding trial (450 cc retained in bladder). foley was replaced but then patient subsequently developed gross hematuria, primarily bleeding from the penis, around the catheter, while on asa. the urine remained relatively clear. his aspirin and sq heparin were discontinued and his hematocrit was rechecked in the am. his hematocrit was stable and he had no issues with obstruction. he was thus discharged home with gu follow-up for further management of his urinary retention and hematuria. likely hematuria due to trauma from foley but would consider cystoscopy for further evaluation if it persists after foley removed. . 8) type ii diabetes: well-controlled w/o complications. hgba1c 6.9. riss. restarted glipizide prior to discharge. . 9) ventricular ectopy: k/mg repleted, ef >50% .

minimally displaced transverse lucency of left medial malleolus consistent with avulsion fracture. -tls -ct chest/abd/pelvis: no acute process echo conclusions: 1. left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size, and systolic function are normal (lvef>55%). regional left ventricular wall motion is normal. 2. the aortic root is mildly dilated. 3. the aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened. 4. the mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. 5. there is a trivial to small pericardial effusion. mr cxr impression: persistent congestive heart failure. more confluent opacities at the bases, right greater than left, with slight worsening in right lower lobe and slight improvement in the left lower lobe. these findings may be due to changing distribution of dependent edema in this patient with congestive heart failure mr head impression: stable-appearing intraparenchymal, subarachnoid and subdural hematomas without evidence of cerebral infarction cxr impression: 1. improving chf, with improving left lower lobe atelectasis. 2. continued cardiomegaly with tortuous and widened thoracic aorta brief hospital course: admitted to sicu for further management of sdh, sah, iph, skull fractures, and ankle fracture. neuro: electively intubated for airway protection. q1 hour neuro checks were unchanged overnight, however repeat head ct after admission demonstrated likely worsening of iph. neurosurgery elected not to do intracranial pressure monitoring and managed him expectantly. neurologic status remained poor throughout the admission, despite stable repeat head cts and minimal to no sedation, the patient remained only intermittantly following commands. speech remains a problem, pt has been fit for passe muir valve but makes no move to try to speak, will need intense neuro rehab and speech therapy. gi: pt failed multiple speech and swallow tests, largely likely bc of his neuro status. peg tube placed, which patient tolerated well, and tube feeds were advanced to goal without complication. fup with speech and swallow for continued need for peg in one month or earlier per acute rehab. pulm: hospital course was complicated by inability to extubate the patient at first due to s/s congestive heart failure which resolved with diuresis, however patient still with episodes of exhaustion on trials of cpap therefore patient got a tracheostomy on hd 11 which he tolerated well-- after trach, patient maintained good ox/vent on trach mask of 8l and was transferred to the floor for further management. on floor pt remained stable although requires frequent suctioning and 70% trach mask. id: course was also complicated by several febrile episodes for which no source was identified, patient was maintained on broad
