Diabetes, htn, obesity, OSA other major issues.  He reportedly was doing ok 2 days ago, but yesterday and today had a couple of falls out of bed, and then could not get up off the sofa, so ultimately was brought to a local clinic.   Denies fever/chills, diarrhea, dysuria,  sob.  Maybe a mild cough.  How reliable a historian he is may be questionable.  Was found to be COVID +.   Had prior vaccination.

ASSESSMENT & PLAN: Active Hospital Problems   Diagnosis   POA o COVID-19   Yes o Rhabdomyolysis   Yes o UTI (urinary tract infection)   Unknown o Dementia with behavioral disturbance (*)   Yes o Hyperlipidemia (*)   Yes o Type 2 diabetes mellitus without retinopathy (*)   Yes o Generalized weakness   Yes o Morbid obesity (*)   Yes o OSA (obstructive sleep apnea)   Yes o Hypertension (*)   Yes   COVID-19:    Symptom onset: ? 9/6/21 Date of diagnosis: 9/6/21 Date of admission at hospital:  9/6/21   Potential end of isolation:  Inpatient guidelines: 20 days since first positive test (symptomatic).9/26/21 Discharge guidelines: Per local health department.   Treated with:  Remdesivir: Dates started/completed: no indicated Dexamethasone: Dates started/completed: not indicated Antibiotics: rocephin (UTI) Anticoagulation/DVT prophylaxis: lovenox  Other: Tocilizumab/Baricitnib/Monoclonal aby not indicated   - Current O2 requirement: RA (baseline RA).  Goal SPO2 92-96% with continuous pulse oximetry.   - Self proning as tolerated   - Code status: DNR/DNI- ACP on file: (no) if not on file place ACP consult     COVID:  No significant pulmonary manifestations, hence not a candidate for covid-directed medications at this time. Likely his weakness is due to covid, vs from UTI. -PT/OT evals -supportive care   UTI:  Continue rocephin pending UC results. Check post-void residual.     Htn:  Usual meds   DM:  Hold oral meds; continue basal insulin partial dose (50 units)with high dose SSI for now.   Rhabdo:  Mild, fluid bolus and encourage oral intake of fluids.   Htn:  Hold ace pending recheck creat tomorrow, given mild rhabdo   Dementia:  Cont namenda       Patient's current Medical Level of Care is OBSERVATION.    OBSERVATION level of care is appropriate because I am NOT certain that hospital confinement (including time spent in the ED or at an outside institution prior to transfer) will be medically necessary for at least 2 midnights.
