Hospital Course Patient is a 74 yo male who presented to the ED with complaint of weakness and was placed in observation due to elevated LFT's. He has a past medical history is significant for type 2 diabetes mellitus, debility, coronary artery disease, and chronic indwelling foley catheter. The patient had recently been hospitalized at hospital due to septic shock from an UTI associated with his chronic indwelling foley catheter. Since that time he had been on multiple hepatotoxic medications to help treat the infection as well as prevent further infections. On admission he was found to be COVID-19 positive but was quickly at his baseline oxygen needs. CT showed resolving pneumonia. Patient was noted to have an ejection fraction of 20-25% from an echo performed 9/21. His liver enzymes were elevated on admission and the following meds were held: Atorvastatin, Ciprofloxacin, fluconazole, Pantoprazole, methanimine, Acetamenophen, Hydrocodone-Acetamenophen, Orgovyx, Pregabalin. Acetaminophen level when drawn was zero. The enzymes were noted to be improving by the second day. His sacral ulcers have been treated with mepilex. Diabetes was treated with home dose basal, but his needs were less than expected. On discharge he will be decreased to 45 units daily without change to his mealtime. Patient's inflammatory markers were trended down. On 8/1/22 patient was found to have some hematuria and clotting. Patient's foley was exchanged and minimal irrigation resulted in clear urine. His family has been urged to keep appointments with Dr. and Dr. . We have also sent referral information to infectious disease, to help manage patient's chronic antibiotics.

Patient has been resolving during his stay. His liver enzymes have improved greatly and his inflammatory markers are also down. He requests to go home.  Patient should keep his appointment with Dr. (8/2/22) for hospital follow up. I have voiced this to the family.  Follow up for hematuria with Dr. on 8/16/22.   Patient is to complete his antibiotics as prescribed until complete. Patient will be called by facilities should they accept my referral.  Patient has been connected to services through data. He will have nursing assistance, PT and OT services.   Patient's medications have been reconciled with resuming most of his medications. I have suggested holding acetaminophen products until his liver derangements are fully resolved. I have sent 10 lidocane patches for pain during this timeframe.  Plan of care was discussed with Dr. and staff via phone and agreed to. Patient also agrees with plan of care.  DO  Primary Care Provider DO  Electronically signed by RESIDENT on Aug-01-2022 1412
