Clinical narrative: Document Type: History and Physical   Document Subject: History & Physical Note   Encounter Info: Hospital, Inpatient, 11/15/22 -     * Final Report *        Chief Complaint   respiratory arrest  History of Present Illness/Subjective     53-year-old male with a past medical history of Charcot-Marie-Tooth and diaphragmatic paralysis who was supposed to use Trelegy at night, among other conditions listed below who was intubated in the field for respiratory arrest and inability to protect his airway as per EMS.  The patient is following with pulmonology outpatient who he saw last month, and according to chart review of the visit note, the patient has been experiencing worsening difficulty breathing due to his diaphragmatic dysfunction/paralysis and the plan was to follow-up with a neurologist for his progressively worsening condition.  According to the ED provider, his mother stated he was not wearing his trilogy device when she found him not breathing, she states that some nights he enjoys falling asleep without having to use it. She also notes it has been increasingly difficult for him to ambulate independently.   In the ED the patient was found to have high lactate, elevated troponin, however CT head and CTA of chest were negative.  He was also found to have mild leukocytosis as well as a anion gap of 18 and elevated glucose in the 250s.  Patient is being accepted to ICU for continued ventilatory support, close monitoring, and possible initiation of insulin drip.  Patient may need a neurology evaluation in the a.m., if the neurologist feels an in person evaluation is passed then patient may need to be transferred to another facility at that time however patient is currently appropriate for our ICU.   Mother is at bedside and states she is not aware of an active advanced directive and believes her son would want cpr and mechanical vent if required and therefore patient is full code.  This patient is critically ill due to metabolic, hemodynamic and/or respiratory instability. They require high complexity evaluation, decision making, and care. They require ICU level of care and monitoring due to high risk of clinical decompensation with high risk of morbidity and mortality. Critical care time includes, but is not limited to, bedside assessment, review of medical record, radiographic and laboratory results, ventilator and/or respiratory management, review of ekg and/or cardiac monitoring, critical decision making, coordination of care with consultants and/or care team, and documentation of critical intervention/plans, and consultation with patient and/or family. Time excludes any procedural time.  I spent greater than 65 minutes in the evaluation and management of this patient with more than 50% of the time spent counseling and/or coordinating care.  I counseled the patient and/or family about the findings, differential diagnoses, my assessment, recommendations, and plan.  I coordinated care with the multidisciplinary healthcare team.
