Discharge Disposition:  Hospice   Medications, instructions, follow up information: See patient Discharge Instructions/AVS.   Hospital Course and Significant Findings: Patient is a 92 Y male with h/o AV Block s/p cardiac pacemaker implantation in 2015, HTN, BPH, AOA, hypothyroidism, and emphysema who presented to ED on 10/13 and 10/15 with worsening back pain after sustaining fall on back and ultimately found to have +CT finding of an unstable L5 vertebral ftx deemed inoperable by neurosurgery due to his comorbities (ie. Aortic stenosis, DHF) and recommended to wear a TSLO brace. Patient was also found to be hypoxic (76%) on RA with wet CXR and mildly elevated trops in 300s thought to be d/t demand ischemia later discovered to not be adherent to home HF medications so, given 40mg IV Lasix 6x from 10/15-10/17 with good response. On HD#2, he became newly altered above baseline likely multifactorial given his baseline dementia, +COVID infection, acute CHF exacerbation, and current hospitalization environment although he also presented with new onset leukocytosis. Also, despite adequate UOP from diuresis, patient still required elevated O2 requirements of 5.5L (despite not being on O2 at home) so a repeat CXR was done and was significant for multiple opacities as compared to last so, started on IV Ceftriaxone 2g daily + IV Doxycycline 100mg bid for CAP. Delirium eventually improved mid-hospitalization and cycled up and down throughout suspected d/t Decadron and Oxycodone treatments so, Oxycodone held for 1 day during an acute delirium phase which eventually led return to near baseline on 10/23. TTE (10/16) shows normal EF (55-60%) with mild dilatation of atria although assessment of LV diastolic function limited so still likely an acute CHF although difficult dgx given no prior TTE to compare. His leukocytosis was also thought to be due to him being on Decadron for his current COVID infection. Eventually, leukocytosis resolved on HOD#3 with gradually decreasing O2 requirements to 2L. Patient was held until 10/25/22 due to COVID isolation requirements of 10 days before the hospice facility would be able to accept him for transfer. As a result, patient's pain and comfort care protocol was prioritized with successful removal of staples prior to discharge.
