No angiographic evidence of coronary artery disease.,2.  Normal left ventricular systolic function.,3.  Normal left ventricular end diastolic pressure.,INDICATION:  ,The patient is a 58-year-old male with past medical history significant for polysubstance abuse, chronic tobacco abuse, chronic alcohol dependence with withdrawal, atrial flutter, history of ventricular tachycardia with AICD placement, and hepatitis C. The patient was admitted for atypical chest pain and scheduled for cardiac catheterization.,PROCEDURE IN DETAIL:,  After informed consent was signed by the patient, the patient was taken to the cardiac catheterization laboratory.  He was prepped and draped in the usual sterile manner.  The right inguinal area was anesthetized with 2% Xylocaine.  A 4-French sheath was inserted into the right femoral artery using the modified Seldinger technique.  JL4 and 3DRC catheters were used to cannulate the left and right coronary arteries respectively.  Coronary angiographies were performed.  These catheters were removed and exchanged for a 4-French pigtail catheter, which was positioned into the left ventricle.  Left ventriculography was performed.  The patient tolerated the procedure well.  At the end of the procedure, all catheters and sheaths were removed.  The patient was then transferred to telemetry in a stable condition.,HEMODYNAMIC DATA: , Hemodynamic data shows aortic pressures of 100/56 with mean of 70 mmHg and the LV 100/0 with LVEDP of 10 mmHg.,AORTIC VALVE:  ,There is no significant gradient across this valve noted.,LV GRAM: , A 10 mL of contrast were delivered for 3 seconds for a total of 30 mL.

Heart Catheterization, Ventriculography, & Angiography - 7  ( Cardiovascular / Pulmonary)
Description:  Left heart catheterization, coronary angiography, left ventriculography.  Severe complex left anterior descending and distal circumflex disease with borderline, probably moderate narrowing of a large obtuse marginal branch.

PROCEDURE: , Left heart catheterization, coronary angiography, left ventriculography.,COMPLICATIONS: , None.,PROCEDURE DETAIL: , The right femoral area was draped and prepped in the usual fashion after Xylocaine infiltration.  A 6-French arterial sheath was placed in the usual fashion.  Left and right coronary angiograms were then performed in various projections after heparin was given 2000 units intraaortic.  The right coronary artery was difficult to cannulate because of its high anterior takeoff.  This was nondominant.  Several catheters were used.  Ultimately, an AL1 diagnostic catheter was used.  A pigtail catheter was advanced across the aortic valve.  Left ventriculogram was then done in the RAO view using 30 mL of contrast.  Pullback gradient was obtained across the aortic valve.  Femoral angiogram was performed through the sheath which was above the bifurcation, was removed with a Perclose device with good results.  There were no complications.  He tolerated this procedure well and returned to his room in good condition.,FINDINGS,1.  Right coronary artery:  This has an unusual high anterior takeoff.  The vessel is nondominant, has diffuse mild-to-moderate disease.,2.  Left main trunk:  A 30% to 40% distal narrowing is present.,3.  Left anterior descending:  Just at the ostium of the vessel and up to and including the bifurcation of the first large diagonal branch, there is 80 to 90% narrowing.  The diagonal is a large vessel about 3 mm in size.,4.  Circumflex:  Dominant vessel, 50% narrowing at the origin of the obtuse marginal.  After this, there is 40% narrowing in the AV trunk.  The small posterior lateral branch has diffuse mild disease and then the vessel gives rise to a fairly large posterior ventricular branch, which has 70% ostial narrowing, and then after this the posterior descending has 80% narrowing at its origin.,5.  Left ventriculogram:  Normal volume in diastole and systole.  Normal systolic function is present.  There is no mitral insufficiency or left ventricular outflow obstruction.,DIAGNOSES,1.  Severe complex left anterior descending and distal circumflex disease with borderline, probably moderate narrowing of a large obtuse marginal branch.  Dominant circumflex system.  Severe disease of the posterior descending.  Mild left main trunk disease.,2.  Normal left ventricular systolic function.,Given the complex anatomy of the predominant problem which is the left anterior descending; given its ostial stenosis and involvement of the bifurcation of the diagonal, would recommend coronary bypass surgery.  The patient also has severe disease of the circumflex which is dominant.  This anatomy is not appropriate for percutaneous intervention.  The case will be reviewed with a cardiac surgeon.
High PT-INR - ER Visit  ( Cardiovascular / Pulmonary)
Description:  Very high PT-INR.  she came in with pneumonia and CHF.  She was noticed to be in atrial fibrillation, which is a chronic problem for her.

REASON FOR THE VISIT:,  Very high PT/INR.,HISTORY: , The patient is an 81-year-old lady whom I met last month when she came in with pneumonia and CHF.  She was noticed to be in atrial fibrillation, which is a chronic problem for her.  She did not want to have Coumadin started because she said that she has had it before and the INR has had been very difficult to regulate to the point that it was dangerous, but I convinced her to restart the Coumadin again.  I gave her the Coumadin as an outpatient and then the INR was found to be 12.  So, I told her to come to the emergency room to get vitamin K to reverse the anticoagulation.,PAST MEDICAL HISTORY:,1.  Congestive heart failure.,2.  Renal insufficiency.,3.  Coronary artery disease.,4.  Atrial fibrillation.,5.  COPD.,6.  Recent pneumonia.,7.  Bladder cancer.,8.  History of ruptured colon.,9.  Myocardial infarction.,10.  Hernia repair.,11.  Colon resection.,12.  Carpal tunnel repair.,13.  Knee surgery.,MEDICATIONS:,1.  Coumadin.,2.  Simvastatin.,3.  Nitrofurantoin.,4.  Celebrex.,5.  Digoxin.,6.  Levothyroxine.,7.  Vicodin.,8.  Triamterene and hydrochlorothiazide.,9.  Carvedilol.,SOCIAL HISTORY:  ,She does not smoke and she does not drink.,PHYSICAL EXAMINATION:,GENERAL:  Lady in no distress.,VITAL SIGNS:  Blood pressure 100/46, pulse of 75, respirations 12, and temperature 98.2.,HEENT:  Head is normal.,NECK:  Supple.,LUNGS:  Clear to auscultation and percussion.,HEART:  No S3, no S4, and no murmurs.,ABDOMEN:  Soft.,EXTREMITIES:  Lower extremities, no edema.,ASSESSMENT:,1.  Atrial fibrillation.,2.  Coagulopathy, induced by Coumadin.,PLAN: , Her INR at the office was 12.  I will repeat it, and if it is still elevated, I will give vitamin K 10 mg in 100 mL of D5W and then send her home and repeat the PT/INR next week.  I believe at this time that it is too risky to use Coumadin in her case because of her age and comorbidities, the multiple medications that she takes and it is very difficult to keep an adequate level of anticoagulation that is safe for her.  She is prone to a fall and this would be a big problem.  We will use one aspirin a day instead of the anticoagulation.  She is aware of the risk of stroke, but she is very scared of the anticoagulation with Coumadin and does not want to use the Coumadin at this time and I understand.  We will see her as an outpatient.
