Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: allergies: no known allergies / adverse drug reactions attending: chief complaint: wound drainage major surgical or invasive procedure: aspiration of right frontal csf collection , , history of present illness: this is a 66 year old man who underwent craniotomy for resection of frontal tumor on . he had been doing well but for two weeks he has noticed drainage on his pillow when he awakes in the morning. his wife also noted a fluid collection for about one week. he has had no fevers and there is no erythema along his incision. past medical history: hld hypothyroidism seizures craniotomy for tumor social history: past tobacco use (1 ppd x 34 years, quit 20 years ago). drinks vodka nightly. denies illicit drug use. manages a landscaping firm. married and lives with his wife.

head noncontrast: 1. new subgaleal fluid collection in the scalp overlying the right craniotomy site. 2. post-right frontal lobectomy, with resolved post-operative pneumocephalus. no superimposed acute intracranial process detected. cxr as compared to the previous radiograph, the patient has received a right pectoral port-a-cath. the port-a-cath is in correct position. there are no complications, notably no pneumothorax. otherwise, the radiograph is unchanged. no acute lung parenchymal changes. no pleural effusions. no pneumonia, no pulmonary edema. normal hilar and mediastinal contours, normal size of the cardiac silhouette. csf cytology negative for malignant cells. cxr the right port-a-cath is again visualized. there is no pneumothorax. there is a new area of opacity in the left lower lung that could represent volume loss or infiltrate. small amount of volume loss in the right lower lung as well. overall, the appearance has worsened compared to the study from two days prior ct head 1. unchanged size of a subgaleal fluid collection communicating with the epidural space, however, neighboring increased soft tissue swelling is present.this may represent a pseudomeningocele. 2. post-right frontal craniotomy changes. no superimposed acute intracranial process detected. no new mass effect. ct head unchanged appearance of a right frontal pseudomeningocele/extra-axial fluid collection. there is expected mild enhancement of the overlying subcutaneous soft tissues, with some stranding and swelling posteriorly. no abnormal intracranial enhancement is detected. while no definite signs of an abscess are seen, infection/inflammation of this collection cannot be excluded by imaging alone. ecg sinus tachycardia, rate 106. left atrial abnormality. the tracing is otherwise, within normal limits ct head stable to slightly decreased right frontal extra-axial fluid collection, with minimally increased size of right frontal subgaleal fluid collection. cta chest tiny, non-occlusive, marginal, filling defects in the subsegmental branches of right upper and left lower lobe are likely small pulmonary emboli, not necessarily acute. no evidence of emboli in main, lobar, and segmental branches. cxr in comparison with study of , there is a little overall change. continued opacification at the left base with poor visualization of the costophrenic angle is consistent with atelectatic changes in the left lower lobe and possibl small effusion. no vascular congestion or acute focal pneumonia. port-a-cath position is unchanged. le us no evidence of deep vein thrombosis in either leg cxr cardiac size is top normal accentuated by low lung volumes. left lower lobe atelectasis has improved. there is mild vascular congestion. there is no pneumothorax. right port-a-cath tip is in unchanged position. there are no enlarging pleural effusions. cxr reason for exam: fever and low saturations. cardiac size is top normal. the lungs are clear. there is no pneumothorax or pleural effusion. the right port-a-cath tip is in the right atrium, which is difficult to visualize. admission labs: 07:30pm blood wbc-5.3 rbc-4.16* hgb-13.3*

condition: stable discharge instructions: you were initially admitted to the hospital with chest pain. while you were in the hospital you had a cardiac arrest requiring defibrillation. the most likely reason this occurred was because you had an acute heart attack. you were taken to the catheterizartion lab where we found that one of your bypasses had clotted off. this was likely the reason why you had a cardiac arrest. . the following medications were changed during your hospitalization: your crestor was discontinued due to elevated levels of enzyme involved in muscle breakdown from your cardiac arrest. you should follow up with your cardiologist and restart a lipid lowering at his discretion. you were also started on plavix for the maintenance of your stent. you were also started toprol xl and lisinopril. note that your aspirin dose has also been increased for cardioprotective effect. you have also been started on a nicotine patch. you are being treated for a pneumonitis

lobe meaasuring 4.4 cm x 3 cm showing no interval change. also, surrounding vasogenic edema noted around lesion. the lesion produces mass effect compressing the adjacent occipital of the r lateral ventricle. previously seen hemorrhagic lesion mostly in the r occipital lobe is unchanged. brief hospital course: # delirium/hepatic encephalopathy: hepatic versus other etiology. although ammonia and lfts were elevated on admission, pattern not consistent with alcoholic cirrhosis, considered micrometastases to liver. no clear signs of infection, hepatitis serologies only showed prior immunity. considered effect of brain met and surrounding vasogenic edema although neuro-onc evaluation felt this was unlikely due to minimal mass effect and no midline shift. on discussion with hepatology, decadron and xrt likely overstressed pts liver, causing acute decompensation. he was started on aggressive lactulose and rifaxmin (initially required and ngt to administer this, but pulled this out within 24 hours and as mental status was improving to the point of being able to take pos safely, it was not replaced), and his mental status gradually improved significantly. # non-small cell lung ca: followed by providers at osh: medical oncologist (dr. who did the initial inpatient consultation when his diagnosis was made), radiation oncologist (dr. ), thoracic surgeon (dr. at hospital ). initial plan was for wbxrt to brain met and xrt to lung nodule, with plans for cyberknife to brain met (at that time, it was thought to be unresectable), then resection of lung nodule. had completed 5 out of 10 sessions of wbxrt. given possibility of liver mets, it was essential to establish whether or not there is diffuse disease elsewhere as this may impact decision to resect lung lesion (see below). the patient's family and dr. requested input from heme-onc service to discuss further treatment options given his liver disease and hemorrhagic brain met. thoracic surgery was consulted and felt the patient would not benefit for thoracic surgery. # cirrhosis with possible liver mets: cirrhosis was initially presumed to be from his history of heavy alcohol use, although the ast was not elevated more than the alt as would be expected. hepatitis panel was negative. the possibility of diffuse metastatic disease in the liver was considered. micrometastases may be giving liver a nodular appearance on imaging, leading to a picture of pseudocirrhosis. echogenic mass in liver seen on us was not visualized on ct because it was done without contrast due to contrast allergy. mri showed a lesion in segment 6, but per outpatient pet-ct report from , nothing lit up in the liver, so nontargeted us-guided liver biopsy was done . this showed cirrhosis but no evidence of tumor. # brain metastasis: pt has a hemorrhagic r occipital brain met. ct scan here of the head showed a significant amount of bleeding, and it wais unclear if this is increased or stable from prior. in setting of coagulopathy, this may have worsened. he has had wbxrt treatments by dr. (rad-onc, in , ). admitted on day 7 of decadron. discussed overall plan of care with dr. coverage on admission, and although pts thoracic surgeon has plans for potential cure, his radiation oncologist does not think pt will likely be curable, especially now with liver decompensation. patient's neuro deficit (left visual field cut) has been stable, repeat ct 24 hours after admission as well as mri showed stable lesion. dr. coverage recommended decadron taper on admission: 4 mg tid for 3-4 days, then taper to 4 mg for 3-4 days, then taper to 4 mg daily for 3-4 days, then 2 mg for 3-4 days, and then 2 mg qod for 3-4 days. per rad-onc here, no role for continuing wbxrt now given liver workup and possible resection of brain met; per discussion with dr. , he agrees with holding xrt in brain and lung for now. neurosurgery was consulted and felt the mass was resectable. dr. , dr. , and neuro-onc here (dr. all agreed to the resection, so he was transferred to the neurosurgery service on for the operation which he tolerated without difficulty he was monitored in the pacu and was transferred to the surgical floor. he remained neurologically intact without any deficits. # coagulopathy: inr elevated, likely from liver decompensation. he required aggressive ffp and platelets before procedures. heparin sc was held. # thrombocytopenia: likely from liver decompensation, splenic sequestration. he required platelet transfusions before procedures. # splenic infarct: seen on mri, may be related to hypercoagulable state from malignancy or thrombosis (cirrhotics may still be vulnerable to thromboses off of anticoagulation, but he has been ambulating), no evidence of afib to suggest that as an embolic source. he did not have pain or fever, and anticoagulation would not be started anyway because of hemorrhagic brain met. his symptoms were monitored. # h/o alcoholism: pt has h/o alcoholism, last drink 4 days pta. no signs of withdrawal. he was given thiamine and folate. a ciwa scale was ordered but he did not require any benzos. # dehydration: poor po intake for several days prior to admission, bun/cr ratio elevated on admission, hct likely hemoconcentrated. # hyperglycemia: no history of diabetes. hyperglycemia likely due to decadron, although given degree of blood sugar elevation, he likely had an element of undiagnosed diabetes before. his elevated sugars may also be exacerbated by family bringing in outside food and greater than normal po intake when he has not been npo. lantus and riss were started and titrated up as necessary. # hypertension: continued metoprolol # macrocytosis: b12/folate normal/high the patient was transferred to the neurosurgery service and underwent craniotomy for tumor resection. the surgery went well and he recovered in the pacu overnight. he was then transferred to the neurosurgery floor. the patient worked with pt and ot who felt that he was unsafe to go home due to his cognitive deficits. therefore he was screened for rehab. the patient required oxygen therapy while on the neurosurgery service and was unable to be weaned off. he will continue this at rehab. the patient will resume his radiation treatments at cancer center for the lung and brain. thoracic surgery was consulted who felt that lung resection was not possible due to the stage 4 lung ca. additionally palliative care was consulted who assisted in the plan for discharge to rehab with the daily transfer to the radiation center. his coags were followed as his plts continued to trend down (46 on discharge), hem onc was consulted and they did not recommend transfusing until it less than 10k. his inr was trending up, hepatology was consulted and did not recommend reversing unless evidence of bleeding. on discharge his neuro exam was normal with a flat affect, and short term memory problems. medications on admission: decadron 4 mg four times a day metoprolol 25 mg daily prilosec discharge medications: 1. thiamine hcl 100

Medical Report: allergies: lasix / metolazone / zeroxolyn attending: chief complaint: melena, abdominal pain, decreased hct major surgical or invasive procedure: egd with clips/cauterization egd without intervention colonoscopy history of present illness: mr. is an 81 year old man with a h/o thalamic hemorrhagic stroke 1 year ago, recent gi bleed s/p egd showing 3 duodenal ulcers who presents from rehab with melanotic stools, hct drop from 29->21. the patient was recently admitted from for melena and hct drop, and egd revealed 3 duodenal ulcers. he was given 1 unit of blood and discharged to rehab with plans for outpatient colonoscopy. biopsies were negative for h pylori, cmv, but did reveal infection, which has not yet been treated. since then he has complained of periumbilical pain, nonradiating, dull and achy that does not change with eating meals. he has not had nausea or vomitting. he denies recent nsaid or alcohol use. he does report melena. he was seen by the md on call at rehab who found his hct to drop from 29 to 21.5, and therefore sent him to the ed. in the ed, initial vs were: 98.3 84 138/74 16 100% ra. an ng lavage revealed red flecks of blood in clear fluid. two peripheral ivs were placed and he was given pantoprazole 80mg iv once followed by a drip at 8mg/hr. gi was consulted who recommended egd in the am. although he was never hypotensive, tachycardic or actively bleeding, he was admitted to the out of concern for impending gi bleed. on arrival to the , the patient was comfortable but complaining of mild periumbilical pain. the patient was subsequently stabilized in the medical icu with blood transfusions and he underwent egd with local therapy for the bleeding ulcer site. once he was hemodynamically stable, the patient was transferred

hemorrhagic stroke 1 year ago, recent gi bleed s/p egd showing 3 duodenal ulcers who presents from rehab with melanotic stools, hct drop from 29->21, eventually underwent an egd showing a bleeding vessel in the duodenum with successful hemostasis. he had a number of blood transfusions with a few more melanotic stools and hct drops throughout the hospitalization. a repeat egd showed healing ulcers and no evidence of bleed. # gi bleed: he had 3 duodenal ulcers on a previous hospitalization. a repeat egd () showed evidence of an active bleeding vessel in the middle of an ulcer on the lateral wall of the duodenum. several unsuccessful attempts to place hemostat clips were made. the vessel was eventually cauterized and hemostasis was achieved. he was treated with high dose pantoprazole. he remained hemodynamically stable. he received 2 packed rbcs and had a stable hematocrit for a few days. he was transitioned to an oral ppi and transferred to the general medical . he then had an episode of melena with a 4 point hematocrit drop. his hemodynamics were again stable. his hematocrit remain stable and uptrended for the next couple of days. however, he again had melena and had a 4 point hematocrit drop. due to this he was transfused 1 unit of packed rbcs with appropriate increase in hematocrit. he had a repeat egd with improvement of ulcers. given that no source of bleeding was found, he was prepped and underwent colonoscopy which did not show any area of bleeding but did show a polyp. he should have a repeat colonoscopy in 6 months for removal of this polyp. his hematocrit was stable for >72 hours at the time of discharge (and was increasing). he should get repeat hematocrit checks twice weekly for the next couple of weeks to make sure his hematocrit remains stable. this should be reported to the medical staff at rehab. # epigastric pain: he continued to have epigastric pain, which was somewhat improved throughout the admission. he was to continue ppi. # heart failure: the patient has a contraindication to acei. his ethacrynic acid was held during the admission. he was euvolemic and the medication was not re-started. he should be evaluated at rehab as this medication may need to be restarted in the future. # urinary incontinence: the patient was noted to have urinary incontinence without evidence of acute infection. we received information in collateral that this is not a new condition. he was checked for post-void residuals by bladder scanner on several occasions, which did not exceed 500cc. this was monitored throughout his admission. # urine cytology from prior admission: we were aware of his urine cytology result concerning for atypical cells on a recent admission. this would warrant further work-up including possible urology evaluation and consideration for cystoscopy if that were in keeping with the patient's wishes. given the acuity of his condition at this time, we did not specifically address this finding while he was an inpatient, and suggest it be re-addressed when his condition stabilizes. # bullous pemphigoid: well controlled on prednisone at 20mg, which was continued without change. # htn: due to initial bleeding, and later decreased oral intake, his amlodipine and hydralazine were held throughout much of his admission. the hydralazine was restarted at the time of discharge. his blood pressures will likely tolerate restarting amlodipine as well, however, i will defer this to rehab medical staff. # h/o stroke: his deficits were noted and confirmed from his prior stroke. he was not noted to have recrudescence beyond his baseline. # a fib: well rate controlled. not felt to be a good anticoagulation candidate likely due to major hemorrhagic stroke and also major gi bleeding. # code: confirmed full transitional issues: --monitor hct on oral twice daily ppi with pantoprazole, and consider if repeat endoscopy will be needed based on course --atypical cells in urine cytology will require consideration for follow-up once other conditions stabilized. --continue to address goals of care with patient, as able, and family, given multiple recent admissions and overall deconditioning.

discharge instructions: it was a pleasure to care for during this admission. as you and your family are aware, you were admitted for bleeding from your stomach despite taking pills against acid at your facility. you had a procedure where the bleeding site was treated and clipped, and you then stopped bleeding temporarily. you did require blood transfusions, as you lost a significant amount of blood from this ulcer. you required icu care early in your admission. on the floor, you had two episodes of bleeding, one of which required another transfusion. you were treated with another blood transfusion. you had a repeat procedure which showed healing of the ulcers. you then had a colonoscopy which showed a non-bleeding polyp but was otherwise normal. you will need follow up with the gastroenterologist, dr. (the gastroenterology office will contact you to set up this appointment). you will have a repeat colonoscopy in 6 months. the appointment is listed below and is with dr. . you were noted to have urinary incontinence, which your family tells us is usual for you. we also know that from a prior admission, you had tests in your urine that revealed atypical cells that could represent a malignancy. you should speak with dr. or dr. the doctors at the facility about seeing a urologist to further evaluate this condition, once you recover from this illness. we treated you with intravenous acid blocking medication, in addition to your procedure. these medications were changed to higher doses of pill medications after several days, at higher doses than you were taking when you came to the hospital. you should continue on this medication (pantoprazole) for at least 4-8 weeks, and until you speak with your doctors to if you need any further tests. you were started on fluconazole, because you had some fungus in your small bowel which may have been contributing to your ulcers. this medication should be continued for 5 more days. for the next two weeks, please have your hematocrit checked twice a week to make sure it remains stable. we made the following changes to your medications: -start pantoprazole at 40mg twice daily -stop amlodipine (this can be restarted once you do not show any more bleeding) -stop ethacrynic acid (you did not need this medication while you were inpatient, you may need to resume this medication in the future) -hold ibuprofen and other nsaids -start fluconazole for 5 more days followup instructions: you should see your primary care physician when you leave rehab, within one week. in the interim, you will be seen by the physician at the facility. you should proceed with the following previously-scheduled appointment for your kidneys: department: west clinic when: wednesday at 4:00 pm with: , md building: de building ( complex) campus: west best parking: garage department: endo suites when: friday at 9:00 am department: digestive disease center when: friday at 9:00 am with: , md building: building (/ complex) campus: east best parking: main garage procedure: colonoscopy endoscopic control of gastric or duodenal bleeding endoscopic control of gastric or duodenal bleeding diagnoses: esophageal reflux mitral valve disorders congestive heart failure, unspecified long-term (current) use of steroids acute posthemorrhagic anemia diabetes mellitus without mention of complication, type ii or unspecified type, not stated as uncontrolled chronic kidney disease, stage iv (severe) hypertensive chronic kidney disease, unspecified, with chronic kidney disease stage i through stage iv, or unspecified gout, unspecified atrial fibrillation other chronic pulmonary heart diseases chronic systolic heart failure late effects of cerebrovascular disease, hemiplegia affecting unspecified side chronic or unspecified duodenal ulcer with hemorrhage, without mention of obstruction urinary incontinence, unspecified pemphigoid candidal enteritis Answer: The patient is high likely exposed to

head ct : 1. diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage with a small amount of intraventricular blood layering in the occipital horns. the configuration and extent of the blood is similar compared to the earlier study. no new hydrocephalus. 2. no evidence of intracranial aneurysm in the arteries of the anterior or posterior circulation. atherosclerotic narrowing in all the intracranial vessels without high-grade stenosis or occlusion. 3. scalp hematoma along the right frontal convexity with enhancement on the arterial phase. ct torso : 1. right renal subcapsular hematoma as above with mass effect on the atrophic right kidney and delayed excretion of contrast from the right kidney as compared to the left. right perinephric stranding raises concern for perinephric hemorrhage/hematoma. small linear high density just medial to the mid pole of the right kidney may be within a vessel, but on single phase, difficult to exclude active extravasation, arterial or venous. consider patient return for delayed ct scanning for further evaluation. the above findings were discussed with dr. at 9:15 p.m. on . 2. right-sided rib fractures as above. 3. trace right pleural effusion. 4. borderline aneurysmal dilatation of the infrarenal abdominal aorta and the right common iliac artery. mildly dilated ascending aorta, as above. right wrist : 1. 2 mm bone fragment dorsal to the proximal carpal row on the lateral view with overlying dorsal soft swelling, raises concern for a triquetral fracture. 2. osteoarthritic changes. ct c spine : 1. non-displaced fracture through the base of an osteophyte from the right anterior superior endplate of c6, most likely chronic. minimal anterolisthesis at c4-5 and c5-6, more prominent on the hospital study than on the current study. if there is a concern for ligamentous injury, mri would be helpful. 2. intracranial hemorrhage, detailed in the same-day head ct and head cta reports. 3. paraseptal emphysema at the imaged lung apices. 4. fluid versus polypoid mucosal thickening in the left sphenoid sinus. cardiac echo : suboptimal image quality. the left atrium is normal in size. there is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. the left ventricular cavity size is normal. overall left ventricular systolic function is probably mildly depressed (lvef= 40 %) with mild global hypokinesis and regional infero-lateral severe hypokinesis. there is no ventricular septal defect. right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. the aortic root is mildly dilated at the sinus level. the ascending aorta is mildly dilated. the aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened (?#). there is no aortic valve stenosis. mild (1+) aortic regurgitation is seen. the mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. there is no mitral valve prolapse. trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. the pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. cta pelvis : 1. unchanged right subcapsular renal hematoma without evidence of active extravasation. there is no evidence of undelying mass lesion. 2. right perinephric stranding is stable in size and appearance from prior study of . 3. small pleural effusion on the right and minimal left pleural effusion. 4. stable borderline aneurysmal dilatation of the infrarenal abdominal aorta. cta head/neck : no aneurysm, moderate right vertebral artery stenosis, moderate -severe left vertebral artery stenosis, mild right ica stenosis, moderate right subclavian artery stenosis. head ct : diffuse subarachnoid hemorrhage with similar overall appearance compared to prior. eeg : abnormality #1: there are frequent bursts of diffuse theta slowing throughout the awake portion of the record. background: an 8.5-9 hz alpha rhythm with a normal anterior-posterior gradient was observed during the awake portion of the recording. hyperventilation: was not performed. intermittent photic stimulation: was not performed. sleep: the patient was observed to be awake and drowsy during the recording. cardiac monitor: showed a generally regular rhythm. impression: this is an abnormal routine eeg due the presence of frequent bursts of diffuse theta slowing during the awake portions of the recording. this pattern is consistent with a mild diffuse encephalopathy. there were no focal abnormalities or epileptiform features noted. brief hospital course: mr. was evaluated by the trauma team in the emergency room and scans were reviewed. he was admitted to the trauma icu for close neurological evaluation, serial hematocrits in light of his perinephric hematoma and for pain control secondary to right rib fractures. he was also evaluated by the hand service for his right wrist fracture and a splint was applied. he should not bear weight on the right arm. neurosurgery saw the patient and was unsure if the sah was traumatic vs. aneurysmal. patient then underwent an angio on which demonstrated no aneurysm and moderate right and moderate to severe left vertebral artery stenosis. also some mild r ica (prox cavernous segment) and moderate stenosis of left subclavian artery proximal to left vert in origin. neurology was then consulted for potential stroke as the cause for loc and for the vertebral artery stenosis. his neurologic exam was unchanged and he had no obvious seizures. an eeg was done which essentially showed diffuse encephalopathy. mr. was transferred to the trauma floor with a stable hematocrit in the 23-25 range and was able to continue with his hemodialysis as scheduled, tues/thurs/sat. his last hd was . his hemodynamics remained stable and his pain was well controlled. he was able to use the incentive spirometer effectively. his aicd was interrogated to assure it was functioning appropriately and no problems were identified. he remained in nsr without ectopy and had no further syncope in the hospital. from a neurologic standpoint, mr. was started on dilantin for seizure prophylaxis at the time of admission. due to their high suspicion of the syncopal events precipitated by seizures they would like to continue anti seizure medication indefinitely. currently for ease of management his dilantin is being weaned off and his last dose will be . additionally he will start keppra 500 mg daily on and on hemodialysis days he should receive an additional 250 mg post dialysis. the neurology and neurosurgical services will continue to follow him as an out patient. the physical therapy service evaluated mr. and he was well below his baseline functioning; thus acute rehab was recommended to help him regain strength, balance and hopefully maintain his independence. medications on admission: : aspirin, plavix 75mg daily, carvedilol 25mg , hydralazine 50mg , nephrocaps 1 cap daily, omeprazole 40mg , paroxetine 20mg daily,

and he did not eat anything for dinner last night. he denies fever, chills, or cough. he also denies dysuria. he has had constipation fo rwhich he took milk of magnesia tablets last evening and today with his last bm this morning. . of note the patient was recently admitted to from for dyspnea. he was admitted to the micu for tachypnea to 50s and oxygen requirement. in the icu, he required bipap which was gradually weaned off to his home 2.5l nc with sats in the 89-91 range. patient symptomatically felt better. a chest x-ray showed rul infiltrate consistent with pneumonia. he continued solumedrol and abx were tapered to levaquin alone. he developed new onset a fib and was started on diltiazem for rate control. he was discharged home on prednisone taper and completed 7 day course of levofloxacin. . in the emergency department initial vs were bp 114/54 hr 108 rr 36 o2 sat 99% 4l. ct abdomen was performed and showed new ascites and worsening of his liver and omental mets. surgery evaluated him for ? sbo. they did not see signs of obstruction, felt that he had likely ileus from progressive metastatic disease and is not a surgical candidate. ngt was placed for comfort. labs were notable for k 6.0 without ekg changes. he was given d50 and insulin. he also received solumedrol 125mg iv, vanco 1gm, zosyn 4.5gm, combivent nebs x2 and 2l ns. . currently the patient states his breathing feels much better. he continues to have some abdominal discomfort with exam. he denies chest pain, fever, cough, nausea or vomiting. he reports that the ngt is uncomfortable when he swallows. past medical history: 1) cad s/p mi in by ekg diagnosis, no admission, no symptoms, ett/mibi showing partially reversible defect in rca distribution. no interventions performed. 2) htn 3) hyperlipidemia 4) copd 5) djd 6) thoracic artery aneursym, stable 7) nonsmall cell lung cancer (see below) oncologic history: mr. was in his usoh until when he presented with hemoptysis and weight loss of 10 pounds over previous 1-2 months. he had a ct scan of the chest on and it showed a 4.1 x 4.0 right hilar mass with subcarinal lymphadenopathy, 19 mm right axillary lymph node as well as multiple right lower lobe and left lower lobe nodules concerning for lung cancer. on , he was admitted to with chest pain and ruled out for a non-st elevation mi. he was seen by the hematology-oncology consult service while in the hospital and underwent fna of the right axillary lymph node, the pathology of which showed nonsmall cell cancer, squamous cell type. he was discharged on the third of and then on , he had a bronchoscopy done for evaluation of his hemoptysis as well as bronchial biopsy and the cytology confirmed metastatic nonsmall cell lung cancer. he has subsequently completed 2 cycles of navelbine. social history: he lives in . he is married and has a daughter and a son. has two grandchildren. he is here today with his wife & son. smoked for at least 50 years, stopped smoking 3-4 years ago. he drinks occasional alcohol. he used to work as a carpenter, it is unclear if he has had asbestos exposure. family history: father died at age 43 of unknown

with a similar degree of narrowing of segmental pulmonary arteries, but exerting greater mass effect on descending airways serving the right lower lobe, some of which are now occluded. 3. patchy new peribronchovascular consolidation in the right lower lobe, most suspicious for post-obstructive pneumonia. 4. interlobular septal thickening in each lower lobe, more prominent on the right than left. the appearance may reflect fluid overload or lymphatic congestion, but the possibility of lymphangitic carcinomatosis on the right should also be considered. 5. ng tube terminating in the stomach, but

were sent to microbiology and cytology. brief hospital course: 81y/o m with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer on chemotherapy with alimta last given on who presents with abdominal pain and sob. . #. shortness of breath: this was likely multifactorial, with contributions from copd, extensive lung cancer disease burden, possible post-obstructive pneumonia, and increased abdominal girth. cta chest negative for pe but showed tumor invasion of bronchi and pulmonary artery. ng tube for decompression was placed, vancomycin and zosyn were started, and he was given standing nebulizer treatments and supplemental o2. he underwent two 2-l paracenteses with some improvement in shortness of breath. several days into his hospital course he developed episodes of chest pain and increased shortness of breath without ekg changes, responsive to nitroglycerin and morphine. these were thought to represent unstable angina with a possible contribution from aspiration events. goals of care were discussed with the palliative care team and eventually revised to include comfort measures only. antibiotics were stopped. morphine was given to help with shortness of breath and nitroglycerin as needed for comfort. . #. abdominal distention: found to have new ascites in setting of worsening metastatic disease to liver and omentum. also found to have ileus in setting of this and combination of these is likely contributing to his worsening discomfort. surgery evaluated pt. in ed and were not concerned for sbo. ngt was placed for comfort. he was found to have c diff, which was treated with po vanc and zosyn. he underwent two 2-l paracenteses under ultrasound guidance. antibiotics were stopped when goals of care were revised to cmo. . #. leukocytosis: wbc on admission 88k rose to >100k during this admission, increased from 68k on . this had been discussed with heme/onc in the past and previously attributed to his cancer. the acute rise may have been related to infections (c diff, possible pneumonia). after goals of care were revised, labs were no longer checked. . #. non-small cell lung cancer: widely metastatic with worsening disease despite alimta. followed by dr. .

Medical Report: allergies: sulfa (sulfonamides) attending: chief complaint: ams major surgical or invasive procedure: a-line ir guided paracentesis history of present illness: mr. is a 53 year old male with a history of end-stage liver disease secondary to hepatitis c, hiv (cd4 322) and pulmonary hypertension who presented to the emergency room with weakness, nausea and cough. mr. was recently discharged from this hospital on . he was at home doing realtively well on tube feeds per dobhoff but had recently switched to oral feeding only for the past 1.5 weeks. per his caregiver , he was in his usual state of health until 4 am on the morning of presentation. he has baseline abdominal discomfort and nausea but these were at baseline. at 4 am he was found slumped towards the left side on the couch, incontinent of urine and stool (he wears depends at baseline), and disoriented. prior to this event he was not experiencing any confusion, hematemasis, melena or change in his abdominal pain. he was compliant with his medications including lactulose. he was transferred to the emergency room by ems. in the emergency room his initial vitals were t: 98.1, bp: 98/70, hr: 103, rr: 24, o2:

load: - not detected urine legionella: - negative brief hospital course: 53 year old male with a history of end-stage liver disease secondary to hepatitis c, hiv (cd4 322) and pulmonary hypertension who presented to the emergency room with weakness, nausea and cough found to have colitis and aspiration pneumonia. sepsis/altered mental status: patient initially presented with confusion, hypotension, leukocytosis and bandemia, and elevated lactate. initial imaging studies revealed evidence of a right sided pneumonia in addition to potential colitis. he initially required significant iv fluids but did not required pressors. he was initially started on broad spectrum antibiotics with vancomycin, zosyn and flagyl for hospital acquired pneumonia and possible clostridium difficle. subsequent blood, urine, stool and peritoneal cultures were negative and his antibiotics were changed to levofloxacin and flagyl with plans to complete a 10 day course for aspiration pneumonia. aspiration pneumonia: patient presented with cough and worsening hypoxia on admission. chest ct on admission showed bilateral pleural effusions and rml pneumonia. viral respiratory screen was negative. urine legionella was negative. sputum cultures were unable to be obtained. he did not require intubation. he was treated with levofloxacin and flagyl to complete a ten day course. his oxygen was weaned off and he is currently statting 95% on room air. elevated lactate: on presentation the patient had a lactate of 8.0. it was felt that this was multifactorial secondary to liver disease, haart medications and hypotension. his haart medications were initially held and he received aggressive ivf. his lactate trended down to 2.4. his haart medications were restarted and his lactate did not worsen. hypoglycemia: on presentation the patient was noted to have hypoglycemia in the setting of sepsis and end stage liver disease. the etiology was unclear but resolved as his illness improved. end stage liver disease: secondary to hepatitis c with a history of encephalopathy and varices. no history of sbp. not on list secondary to pulmonary hypotension. his propranolol and lactulose were initially held in the setting of diarrhea and hypotension but were subsequently restarted. he was also continued on rifaximin. given his weight loss and poor nutritional status calorie counts were performed and it was determined that he needed supplemental nutrition via tube feeds to satisfy his caloric intake. he will receive 16 hours per day of tube feeds at rehab. anemia/thrombocytopenia: likely related to liver disease. blood counts near recent baseline of hematocrit (25-30) and platelets (80-12). acute renal failure: creatinine on presentation was 1.2 from baseline on 0.6 in the setting of volume depletion and sepsis. this resolved with ivf. ? seizure: etiology of initial presentation unclear and seizure was considered in the differential, particularly given his hypoglycemia. he had no focal neurologic deficits on exam. he was initially kept on seizure precautions but these were discontinued after over a week without seizure activity noted. his blood sugars were monitored closely. no further workup indicated at this time. hiv: most recent cd4 count 322 in , viral load undetectable. concern in icu that elevated lactate might be secondary to hiv medications and his haart medications were reheld. they were restarted after his elevated lactate resolved without complication. pulmonary hypertension: documented on right heart catheterization . mean pa pressures 40 with 40% reduction in vascular resistance with oxygen but not no. he will be started on sildenafil as an outpatient but is awaiting prior authorization for this medication. he will followup with his pulmonologist. fen: tube feeds 16 hours per day, low sodium diet prophylaxis: he received subcutaneous heparin for dvt prophylaxis access: picc code: full code communication:

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: allergies: sulfa (sulfonamides) attending: chief complaint: respiratory failure major surgical or invasive procedure: intubation history of present illness: 88m pmh htn, transferred from hospital ed where he had been admitted for respiratory distress, s/p intubation by ems. per his daughters, he was in his usoh, other than a uri with mild cough, up until this afternoon, when in the evening he called his daughter c/o acute onset shortness of breath. when they found him, he appeared to have "facial swelling," felt warm, and was struggling to breath. ems arrived and intubated him. prior to this event, he reportedly had no f/c/ns, chest pain or sob. he was very active, and reportedly walked 2 miles without difficulty 2 weeks ago. * in ed, he was initially found to be hypertensive to 239/130. he was noted to be very agitated and was given initially 4mg ativan iv, then succinylcholine 60mg iv. he was then given tylenol 650mg, toradol 30mg, zosyn 3.375 iv. he continued to be agitated, and was given 4mg ativan more, as well as diprivan 20mg bolus then drip at 10mcg/kg/hr. abg prior to transfer 7.30/56/477. . on further review after extubation, he had noted

prolongation. occasional ventricular ectopy. no previous tracing available for comparison. . echo : the left atrium is mildly dilated. the right atrium is moderately dilated. there is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy. the left ventricular cavity size is normal. overall left ventricular systolic function is normal (lvef>55%). transmitral doppler and tissue velocity imaging are consistent with grade i (mild) lv diastolic dysfunction. right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. the ascending aorta is mildly dilated. the aortic valve leaflets are mildly thickened. there is a minimally increased gradient consistent with minimal aortic valve stenosis. no aortic regurgitation is seen. the mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. no mitral regurgitation is seen. the left ventricular inflow pattern suggests impaired relaxation. there is no pericardial effusion. . single ap portable view chest : ett tip is 4.3 cm above the carina. ng tube is out of view below the diaphragm. there is mild pulmonary edema. left lower lobe retrocardiac opacity is consistent with atelectasis and/or pneumonia. note is made that the right cp angle was not included on the film. there is a suggestion of small left pleural effusion. . ct of the chest without contrast : there is a moderate right pleural effusion and small-to-moderate left pleural effusion, simple in nature. there is no pericardial effusion. there is no consolidation or pulmonary edema. there is a 1 mm opacity along the inferior right major fissure, possibly representing a tiny subpleural lymph node. no other nodular opacities are visualized. the central airways are patent to the level of the segmental bronchi bilaterally. there are calcifications of the aortic valve, and coronary artery calcifications. no lymph nodes within the axillae, mediastinum or hila meet ct size criteria for pathologic enlargement. in the imaged portion of the upper abdomen, the visualized portions of the liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas and adrenal glands are unremarkable. the examination is not tailored for evaluation of the structures, and assessment is limited without iv contrast. bone windows: there are no suspicious osteolytic or sclerotic lesions. irregularity of the left scapula may be related to a remote injury. coronal reformatted images were generated and confirmed the described findings. impression: 1. moderate right pleural effusion and small-to-moderate left pleural effusion, simple in nature. no pulmonary edema at the current time. 2. calcifications of the coronary arteries, aorta and aortic valve. brief hospital course: 1) respiratory failure: suspect secondary to bronchospasm in the setting of parainfluenza tracheobronchitis with perhaps an initial component of chf. patient was extubated on hospital day # 3. his bronchospasm was managed with combivent and flovent inhalers. he also received 5 days of levofloxacin for question of bacterial superinfection. urine legionella and sputum culture were unrevealing. patient received pneumovax prior to discharge and was up to date on the influenza vaccine. he was stable on room air at the time of discharge without wheezing. . 2) left sided chf: tte showed ef >55%. creatinine bumped with diuresis despite mild chf noted on initial cxr. i suspect the failure was due to his underlying pulmonary process. he received initial diuresis in the icu but this was not continued given a rise in his creatinine. on the day of discharge, he appears euvolemic and his blood pressure is well controlled. . 3) acute renal failure: resolved prior to discharge. fena <1% consistent with pre-renal state. likely due to initial diuresis. . 4) cad: patient has a history of non-flow limiting cad on cath. he denied any chest pain but did have a bump in troponins but with a negative ckmb. perhaps this was due to some demand ischemia. no focal wall motion abnormalities on echo and patient denied any complaints of exertional symptoms prior to admission. he was unable to continue on an asa due to hematuria but is on as statin and beta blocker. . 5) htn: blood pressure improved with the addition of amlodipine and an increase in his beta blocker. . 6) bph: finasteride . 7) hematuria: patient had foley in place in the icu to monitor i/o. this was discontinued on the floor but patient failed his voiding trial (450 cc retained in bladder). foley was replaced but then patient subsequently developed gross hematuria, primarily bleeding from the penis, around the catheter, while on asa. the urine remained relatively clear. his aspirin and sq heparin were discontinued and his hematocrit was rechecked in the am. his hematocrit was stable and he had no issues with obstruction. he was thus discharged home with gu follow-up for further management of his urinary retention and hematuria. likely hematuria due to trauma from foley but would consider cystoscopy for further evaluation if it persists after foley removed. . 8) type ii diabetes: well-controlled w/o complications. hgba1c 6.9. riss. restarted glipizide prior to discharge. . 9) ventricular ectopy: k/mg repleted, ef >50% .

fracture(non-displaced), basilar skull fracture. repeat head ct: slightly worse intra-parenchymal bleed. -ct neck: negative -cxr: rotated, low lung volumes, pelvis: negative -l. ankle films: subtle, minimally displaced transverse lucency of left medial malleolus consistent with avulsion fracture. -tls -ct chest/abd/pelvis: no acute process echo conclusions: 1. left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size, and systolic function are normal (lvef>55%). regional left ventricular wall motion is normal. 2. the aortic root is mildly dilated. 3. the aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened. 4. the mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. 5. there is a trivial to small pericardial effusion. mr cxr impression: persistent congestive heart failure. more confluent opacities at the bases, right greater than left, with slight worsening in right lower lobe and slight improvement in the left lower lobe. these findings may be due to changing distribution of dependent edema in this patient with congestive heart failure mr head impression: stable-appearing intraparenchymal, subarachnoid and subdural hematomas without evidence of cerebral infarction cxr impression: 1. improving chf, with improving left lower lobe atelectasis. 2. continued cardiomegaly with tortuous and widened thoracic aorta brief hospital course: admitted to sicu for further management of sdh, sah, iph, skull fractures, and ankle fracture. neuro: electively intubated for airway protection. q1 hour neuro checks were unchanged overnight, however repeat head ct after admission demonstrated likely worsening of iph. neurosurgery elected not to do intracranial pressure monitoring and managed him expectantly. neurologic status remained poor throughout the admission, despite stable repeat head cts and minimal to no sedation, the patient remained only intermittantly following commands. speech remains a problem, pt has been fit for passe muir valve but makes no move to try to speak, will need intense neuro rehab and speech therapy. gi: pt failed multiple speech and swallow tests, largely likely bc of his neuro status. peg tube placed, which patient tolerated well, and tube feeds were advanced to goal without complication. fup with speech and swallow for continued need for peg in one month or earlier per acute rehab. pulm: hospital course was complicated by inability to extubate the patient at first due to s/s congestive heart failure which resolved with diuresis, however patient still with episodes of exhaustion on trials of cpap therefore patient got a tracheostomy on hd 11 which he tolerated well-- after trach, patient maintained good ox/vent on trach mask of 8l and was transferred to the floor for further management. on floor pt remained stable although requires frequent suctioning and 70% trach mask. id: course was also complicated by several febrile episodes for which no source was identified, patient was maintained on broad spectrum antibiotics x 10days and remained afebrile after that point. ortho: left medial malleolar avulsion fracture managed with pain control prn and a bivalve cast at all times, patient was seen and evaluated by physical therapy and is to maintain a partial weightbearing status at time of discharge. cvs: patient with known hypertension on several bp meds, difficult to control here requiring polypharmacy. renal wup negative. bp stable on po meds. signs of chf on cxrs and difficulty weaning from ventilator in tsicu and from trach mask on floor, required intermittent lasix boluses. dispo:

rheumatology for complaints of joint pains, psoriasis and chemosis with highly positive . the patient was seen for evaluation of pain in her pip joints with associated swelling (patient noted to take ibuprofen intermittently). the patient was noted to have been suffering a dry cough with associated low-grade temperatures and general fatigue since with reported "normal" renal function at that time (creatinine not documented). the patient was noted to have no raynaud's, weight loss, oral/genital ulcers, chest pain, photosensitivity, alopecia, headache or dysuria. at this office visit a unifying diagnosis was not immediately made but further evaluation for underlying cvd was undetaken with consideration of skin biopsy to confirm psoriasis vs. other, cpk levels, ua, c3/c4, hep serologies and plain films. ibuprofen was also increased this visit to 800mg twice daily. labs at this visit were revealing for +, 1:640 with low c3/c4 (17/4), urine with proteinurea and trace blood. on the on-call attending rheumatologist received a call for concern for evolving symptoms. the patient was recently diagnosed with peri-orbital inflammation for which an mri head had been performed revealing a mastoid opacity for which the patient was started on antibiotics although no clinical evidence of sinusitis. the patient was noted to have glaucoma with intraocular pressures of 40mm thought secondary to periorbital inflammation with drop in visual acuity from 20/20 to 20/40. the patient's ophthamologist subsequently prescribed 80mg daily prednisone given the orbital inflammation but the patient wanted to discuss this further with her rheumatologist before starting. the patient was noted by covering attending to be confused and reported passive suicidal ideation. the patient was discussed with the patient's parents and sibling (ed physician) as well as outpatient ophthalmologist with recommendation that patient be admitted given she was having neurologic problems, orbital inflammation

fertility given that cytoxan would cause ovarian failure, however would have required approx 3 weeks of lupron prior to cytoxan, and patient declined. finally, decision to start cellcept was made. psychiatry followed ms. throughout her admission and felt outpatient follow-up was appropriate. she was treated with ativan prn for anxiety and has scheduled follow-up with her therapist. . # sinus tachycardia: the patient was tachycardic during the beginning of her hospitalization. she was initially treated with iv fluids but quickly became volume overloaded and began third spacing. tsh was normal. she had intermittent complaints of dyspnea, and on imaging was found to have a large pleural effusion and small pericardial effusion. heart rate improved initially after thoracentesis, however the procedure was stopped early due to negative pressures after less than 1l of fluid was removed. the patient was transferred to the ccu due to persistent tachycardia. a repeat thoracentesis removed more fluid which improved her symptoms. upon acheiving a stable rhythm she was transferred to the medical floor. she remained in normal sinus rhythm for the remainder of her admission. . # pericardial effusion: thought to be secondary to sle. during her admission, two transthoracic echos were performed to follow the effusion. both showed no signs of expansion or tamponade. she was continually monitored for hemodynamic instability indicating signs of tamponade or decompensation but remained stable. . # acute pleural effusion: the patient developed an acute pleural effusion during her hospital stay. as above, thoracentesis was done on and pleural fluid studies were consistent with a transudate. cultures were negative for infection. repeat thoracentesis on removed another 1l of fluid which significantly improved her dyspnea. on cxr her bilateral pleural effusions remained stable for the remainder of her stay, without any worsening shortness of breath. prior to discharge her o2 saturation was 98-100% on room air with activity. . # hypertension: patient normotensive on admission on acei, which was held in setting of acute renal failure. it is likely her pressure worsened given her extended steroid course. on transfer to ccu, patient concerned about ace and ccb causing exacerbation of lupus/psoriasis. labetalol and lisinopril were initiated, however ms. preferred not to take ace inhibitors given their effect on lupus. on transfer to the medicine service, she was started on lasix and labetalol. valsartan was added and, over the course of days her blood pressure improved to sbp 140s. her pressures remained labile, with an average of 140-150s during the day, 120-130s overnight. vna would be available post-discharge for frequent blood pressure checks, and the patient was scheduled for her first pcp within 2 weeks of discharge for further of her hypertension. . # acute renal failure: patient last noted to have "normal" creatinine with gfr > 60 in although no actual creatinine/gfr was available for review. the patient had potential etiologies including active lupus nephritis, nsaid toxicity, and pre-renal etiologies. renal was consulted. nsaids and her ace-i held. patient's creatinine continued to improve with iv fluids. the renal team considered a biopsy at first but later deferred the biopsy as it was not going to affect at that time. she was started on bactrim prophylaxis for cytoxan treatment (mwf). she will be followed as an outpatient by the renal service for further evaluation and . . # positive blood cultures: on admission 2 of 4 blood cultures grew coag negative staph. it was unclear at the time whether this was real infection or contaminant, however given her acute illness on presentation vancomycin was administered for approximately 10 days. a leukocytosis was also present however it was unclear whether this was secondary to her steroid course. the remaining cultures drawn during her admission were negative. . # periorbital edema/chemosis: ophthalmology was consulted to evaluate her edema and marked chemosis. per ophthalmology there were no changes consistent with vasculitis in the eye. prednisolone and bacitracin ointment were recommended, plus artificial tears while her edema resolved. over the course of her admission, during her resolving renal failure and active diuresis, her periorbital edema slowly improved. her vision remained intact. she will be seen in ophthalmology clinic as an outpatient. . # follow-up: the patient has a new primary care doctor who she will see within two weeks of discharge. she has follow-up appointments with ophthalmology, renal, and rheumatology. she will also continue to see her therapist as an outpatient. medications on admission: clobetasol 0.05% cream up

found to have active signs of systemic lupus, including kindey failure, pleural effusion and pericardial effusion. you were followed by the renal service and your bun/creatinine levels were trended for resolution of your renal failure. your pericardiac effusion was followed by echo and was found to be unchanged and not causing concerning symptoms. you had two thoracenteses to remove fluid from the lungs. the rheumatology service was also consulted and recommended treating with steroids (prednisone) and cell cept. you were also found to be hypertensive. this was treated with amlodipine, labetalol, and valsartan. your medications will need to be adjusted as your elevalted blood pressure changes with your steroid medications. it is important to follow up with your primary care doctor of these medications. you were also seen in ophthalmology clinic for ocular involvement of your lupus. you should follow up with an ophthalmologist after your discharge (see appointment below). you

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: allergies: no known allergies / adverse drug reactions attending: chief complaint: dyspnea, chest pain major surgical or invasive procedure: endotracheal intubation with mechanical ventilation history of present illness: mr. is a 41m with cad s/p prior lad and lcx, s/p right mca ischemic stroke with hemorrhagic transformation, s/p hemicranitomy and cranioplasty , s/p peg/trach now removed, type 1 dm, htn, hyperlipidemia, etoh and cocaine abuse, depression, and acute cholecystitis now transferred to s/p pea arrest for possible cardiac catherization. . the patient was in his usual state of health until today when he presented to osh with fever of 101 from his rehab. prior to this, he was being treated for a uti with macrobid but had no other recent illness or medication change. at the osh, concern was for aspiration pna (cxr demonstrated large right basal lobe and left lower lobe pna), so he was started on antibiotics (vancomycin, zosyn, azithromycin). he was desatting to the 70s and was satting 89% on 10l nc so he was started on bipap. when placed on bipap he vomited and went into hypoxia respiratory failure with subsequent pea arrest. he was urgently intubated and underwent cpr with rosc. after event, patient complained of chest pain and ekg showed ste's in iii, avf, avr, v1-v3. there was concern for acs and cardiogenic shock so he was started on pressors and transferred to for possible catheterization. of note, the patient was recently hospitalized 3 months ago for inferior nstemi, has been discharged to a nursing home since then. he has had multiple episodes of aspiration pneumonia since then. . upon transfer, patient was sent to cath lab, where it was found that his stes were resolving. his inr was 5, so no cardiac cath was performed. tte showed global hypokinesis consistent with recent arrest. given resolving ekg changes and echo findings inconsistent with acs, he did not undergo cardiac catheterization. . of note, patient was in ccu in for an inferior nstemi. he initially underwent cardiac cath where he was found to have severe diffuse 3vd and had bms to lad and cx lesions. this was complicated by worsening cardiogenic shock requiring intra-aortic balloon pump and after, when no improvement was seen in cardiac function, a tandem heart lvad was placed. he was paralyzed while on the tandem heart and when taken off paralysis, it was noted he left sided weakness. ct head showed a large r mca infarct w/ 3mm midline shift. tte done at that time showed large lv thrombus and an ef of 35%. neurology was consulted and it was decided to continue anticoagulation. serial head cts the next 2 days showed that the infarct was stable and no evidence of hemorrhagic conversion but on ct head showed worsening midline shift and uncal herniation. he then underwent r hemicraniectomy for urgent decompression . he remained on heparin gtt given high risk for thromboembolism. his course was also complicated by nstemi (up-trending ce's on ), chronic renal failure, and persistent fevers with unclear source for which he was covered broadly with vanco, meropenem, and tobramycin. past medical history: cad with 3vd with

history of aspiration with subsequent pea arrest, makes acs less likely. patient did not undergo catheterization on arrival to due resolving st elevations and elevated inr. he is on aspirin, plavix. based on previous cath data, he has known rca and lad disease. globally depressed systolic function could also be secondary to known pea arrest. patient was thought to be in cardiogenic shock at osh and was started on levophed but it was weaned by the time he arrived to . tte showed globally depressed ef inconsistent with new infarction. based on previous cath data, he has known rca and lad disease. globally depressed systolic function could also be secondary to known pea arrest. patient was thought to be in cardiogenic shock at osh and was started on levophed but it was weaned by the time he arrived at . he was cooled, intubated and intermittently on dopmaine pressor support. eventually, he was warmed, liberated from the vent, and taken off of dopamine. repeat tte showed return of cardiac function post-arrest with ef 40%, and another tte ruled out lv thrombus. for this reason, warfarin and heparin gtt (bridging patient while he was subtherapeutic) were both stopped. patient was continued on aspirin 325, plavix 75mg in am, carvedilol 37.5mg , lipitor 10. he is not on an ace secondary to renal failure. . # hypoxic respiratory distress- likely secondary to aspiration pna. the patient was febrile at osh with shortness of breath that acutely worsened when he was placed on bipap. he has extensive history of aspiration pna. he was intubated and underwent cpr for pea arrest with rosc. as mentioned, ekg was concerning for acs but changes are resolving. patient was initially intubated and sedated, but was eventually liberated from the vent. he was diuresed 1-2l daily, as his renal function would tolerate. picc line was placed and patient received 8 days of iv antibiotics (vanc, zosyn, levofloxacin)for hcap. at the time of discharge, he had one remaining day of antibiotics and was breathing well on room air. he also received nebs and pulmonary toilet. . #.aspiration pna: patient treated with 8 day course of vancomycin/levoquin/zosyn. given his h/o frequent aspiration pneumonias, pt had video swallow eval with ot, who recommended month trial of nectar thick liquids and regular solids, followed by repeat video swallow, to attempt to decrease risk of aspiration events. . #dm- patient was hyperglycemic continuously throughout admission, originally with blood sugars in the 500s, then with adjustments to insulin, blood sugars downt o 300s-400s. in the icu, he was intermittently placed on an insulin drip to maintaing euglycemic levels. insulin sliding scale was readjusted when patient came off tube feeds and began a regular, soft diet. patient will need outpatient f/u with a dibetes provider. . #- creatine was 0.9 in and was found to be 2.3 on arrival to osh. patient's family reports he was "dehydrated" prior to admission making prerenal azotemia a likely etiolgy. pre-renal etiology was confirmed by urine lytes/ foley catheter currently in place with good uop. his cr was trended and nephrotoxic agents were avoided. . #blood pressure - patient was hypotensive on presentation secondary to cardiac arrest, and was maintained on dopamine. as the dopamine was weaned off, patient became hypertensive. home blood pressure medications were slowly introduced and his bp monitored. at the time of discharge, patient was taking imdur 60 daily, carvedilol 37.5 and amlodipine 10 daily. . # normocytic anemia: hct somewhat lower than baseline on admission. has history of tranfusion dependant anemia during prior admission. hemolysis labs indicate no hemolysis; no evidence of blood loss. hct was stable throughout admission wit range 21-25. hemolysis labs were negative, patient was guaiac negative. he was continued on omeprazole 20mg po daily. . #depression. he was continued on home celexa 20mg daily. . #seizure prophylaxis. he was continue home depakote 1000mg , started for seizure prophylaxis after large stroke last admission. . #hyperlipidemia. continue lipitor 80mg daily (home dose was lipitor 10). . #right mca infarct: patient with residual left sided weakness after cva in , which was complicated by hemorrhagic conversion and now s/p cranial decompression. he was continued on seizure prophylaxis as above and was seen by pt/ot. . # gerd: he was continued on protonix 40mg daily. . ========================================== transition of care: ****aspiration risk: pt should have month trial of nectar thick liquids and regular solids while at rehab, followed by repeat video swallow (not modified) in attempt to decrease risk of aspiration events. ot is contacting pcp to determine whether f/u should occur via ot or elsewhere**** patient's picc is technically in midline position. it needs to be advaned 6.5cm, per iv team, and has been in similar position for several days. he has only one remaining day

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: social history: both parents have been very involved in his care. they have just recently moved into a new home. due to concerns of fetal deceleration and progressive maternal preeclampsia, the infant was delivered by cesarean section. neonatology was present at the delivery. apgar scores were seven at one minute and eight at five minutes. in the nicu, the infant was initially started on cpap. however, minimal aeration, increased work of breathing, so the baby was intubated and given the first dose of surfactant. physical examination on admission: growth parameters: weight 695 grams, just below the tenth percentile. length 32 cm, 10th percentile. head circumference 23.5 cm, 10th percentile. small hypotonic premature infant with respiratory distress. anterior fontanelle soft and flat. regular rate and rhythm. pulses 2+ times four. palate intact. clavicles intact. lungs with poor crackly aeration yet symmetrical. cv: no murmurs. abdomen: soft, full, with minimal bowel sounds. gu: normal preterm male. testes were high in the inguinal canal, left not palpable. patent anus. no sacral anomalies. extremities: pink, well perfuse. tone, hypotonic, yet symmetrical movement. hospital course: 1. respiratory: the baby had an initial blood gas of 7.37, 43, 46, 26, 0, and was on a conventional ventilator. the baby received a total of two doses of surfactant and was transitioned on day of life number five to cpap. he remained on cpap until day of life number eight when he was reintubated for increased work of breathing. he remained intubated on the conventional ventilator until day of life number 16, was again transitioned to cpap until day of life number 54. during this time, he had several attempts off cpap which required resumption of cpap because of increased work of breathing. he weaned to room air on which is day of life number 92. he was started on diuril on and supplemental kcl. his current dose of diuril is 70 mg p.o. b.i.d. which equals 40 mg per kilogram per day and his current dose of kcl is 3.4 milliequivalents b.i.d. which equals 2 milliequivalents per kilogram per day. the baby was loaded with caffeine citrate on day of life number three and remained on caffeine citrate maintenance dose until day of life number 61. it was discontinued at this time and the baby has been free of apnea and bradycardia for greater than seven days. the plan for follow-up is with the primary pediatrician as well as with dr. , pulmonary at on . per the recommendation of dr. , a cardiac echocardiogram was done to assess for pulmonary hypertension on . the study revealed normal cardiac anatomy and no current evidence of pulmonary hypertension. 2. cardiovascular: the baby has been cardiovascularly stable in his first few days of life. he did not require any pressor support. he has had most recently a soft intermittent murmur thought to be pps. he has had a stable heart rate in the 130s to 170s with blood pressures of 70s/40s, means in the 50s. echo performed on as noted was unremarkable. 3. fluids, electrolytes, and nutrition: the baby initially had a double lumen uvc line in for access. he had some transient hyper/hypoglycemia which responded to glucose infusion rate alteration. he was started on parenteral nutrition on day of life number one. enteral feedings were started on day of life number three and he advanced to full feedings by day of life number 12. caloric density was then increased to 30 calories of breast milk with promod at 150 cc per kilogram. his double-lumen uvc line came out on day of life number eight when a picc line was introduced and remained in place until day of life number 14. he is current taking either breast milk or enfamil 20 ad lib, taking in greater than 145 cc per kilogram per day. he is voiding and stooling without issue. his last nutritional laboratories were on ; sodium 136, potassium 4.1, chloride 100, c02 40, bun 1, creatinine 0.2, alkaline phosphatase 572, calcium 9.8. his last electrolytes were on , and they are pending at the time of this dictation. discharge weight is 3540gm, 50th to 75th percentile; length 49 cm, 50th percentile; and head circumference 41 cm, greater than 90th percentile. he is also receiving supplemental fer-in- 2 mg per kilogram per day of 25 mg per ml which equals 0.3 ml p.o. q.d. 4. gastrointestinal: the baby was treated for physiologic jaundice. his peak bilirubin on day of life number one was 5.7/0.2. he responded to double phototherapy. his rebound bilirubin on day of life number six was 1.7/0.5. 5. gu: the baby has a left hydorocoele. he was also initially thought to possibly have a left inguinal hernia. he was seen by dr. from the surgical team at the who did not find a hernia on exam at the time of his consult and was not palpable at the time of discharge. the plan is to follow-up with dr. at and that appointment is on at 1:20 p.m. the telephone number is . the parents have been instructed on how to assess for an inguinal hernia. he also has a small soft umbilical hernia. 5. hematology: the baby's blood type is o positive. during this hospitalization, he has received four transfusions of packed red blood cells, last being on . his last hematocrit on was 29% with a reticulocyte count of 3.6%. he had an initial platelet count of 116,000 and on day of life number five was noted to have a platelet count of 36,000 for which he received a platelet transfusion, bumping him up to 98,000. his last platelet count on was a part of a cbc with a white count of 14.7, 20 polys, 0 bands, 74 lymphs, platelets 432,000, and hematocrit of 27.9%. 6. infectious disease: the baby had an initial cbc drawn and blood culture because of his premature birth. he had a white count of 5,100 with 12 polys, 0 bands, and platelet count of 116,000 and 56% nucleated red blood cells, and an admission crit of 41.5%. he was started on a 48 hour course of ampicillin and gentamicin. at 48 hours, the baby was clinically stable. cultures remained negative and the neutropenia was thought to be related to his growth restriction. he did have an evaluation for cmv which was negative. he has had no further issues with infection. 7. neurology: the baby has had serial head ultrasounds showing no intraventricular hemorrhage and no periventricular leukomalacia. last head ultrasound was on and again ws an

regular strength aspirin on saturday. he had a bowel movment on saturday. on sunday he felt fine but had no bowel movement. this morning at 5am pt awoke and felt the urge to defecate, which was unusual as he never feels this in the mornings, and he passed a large volume of what he thought was diarrhea but saw dark red blood in the toilet. called his primary oncologist who advised him to go to the ed. in the ed he had another large volume bloody diarrhea around noon. pt states he has never had red blood per rectum before. of note, pt had a colonoscopy on that showed diverticulosis of the sigmoid colon and ascending colon, a polyp at 80cm in the colon (single piece polypectomy with cold snare), and friability and congestion in the sigmoid colon. pt does also have a history of hepatitis

thickening of his sigmoid colon seen on ct scan. sigmoid not well visualized, but biopsies showed ulceration consistent with radiation proctitis. he also had a polypectomy at that time. then admitted to after recurrence of his dlbcl was seen on r buttock biopsy. he received chemotherapy and got r-ice therapy. his lasix was continued but held due to concern for thrombocytopenia from chemotherapy. he was then readmitted for painless hematochezia episodes. his hct and hemodynamics were stable, and he had elevated wbc's after being given neulasta recently. had sigmoidoscopy which was unrevealing due to poor prep. repeat colonoscopy was done and was concerning for necrosis of mid-sigmoid and proximal sigmoid. he went to the or on where he had ex-lap, sigmoid colectomy, and end colostomy. he

transition point in the right lower quadrant has increased in severity since . 2. multiple bubbly air pockets in the pelvis could be either within the bowel loops or could be extraluminal, likely from previous surgery. however there is no walled off fluid collection. 3. residual pneumoperitoneum in the right perihepatic region improved and mild free fluid in abdomen and pelvis has resolved. 4. multiple pulmonary nodules in the lower lung have grown smaller since . 5. 3-3.5 cm infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm, stable since . 6. cholelithiasis without evidence of cholecystitis. brief hospital course: 79m with very complicated course and >3wk admission, but briefly: h/o dlbcl s/p rice chemotherapy, adriamycin-induced cardiomyopathy, hepatitis c, prostate cancer, and diabetes. . in the past few months, he had recurrence of lymphoma and was admitted for r-ice chemo in 11/. he had a ct abdomen which showed colonic thickening, and had colonoscopy with biopsies showing ulceration consistent with radiation proctitis, but given poor prep, was difficult to visualize; also had polypectomy. he then presented with brbpr (radiation proctitis vs lymphoma?) and had sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy concerning for necrosis of mid-sigmoid and proximal sigmoid. he went to the or on where he had ex-lap, sigmoid colectomy, and end colostomy (). he was doing fairly well post-operatively, except for kub showing multiple dilated loops of small bowel consistent with ileus. on post-op day 4, in the setting of fevers, pt underwent ct abdomen showing a 5.7 x 2.7cm partially organized fluid collection in the pelvis - likely representing a seroma given the time-frame post-op (as the patient had no intraabdominal intestinal anastomosis, there was no possibility that this could represent an anastomotic leak). he was then noted to have large r knee effusion and this was tapped by rheumatology, showing acute gout flare. fevers and r knee pain resolved after aspiration. . on he began having chest pressure, acutely sob and hypoxic, so started on nrb and cxr showed flash edema and transferred to micu for diuresis. there, on he nstemi'd with positive uptrending cardiac enzymes and ekg changes, thought to be due to demand ischemia, so taken to cardiac cath which showed bad 3vd and 60-70% left main disease, but he was not felt to be an operable / intervenable candidate, so it was medically managed with , , and acs medications. heparin drip was stopped. . he was then transferred out of icu to general , where he was ok initially but after a few days, he began to feel very weak and was dwindling, not getting oob, and seen to be very weak and orthostatic. his cardiac regimen including antihtn meds were adjusted. however, he then started vomiting and had abdominal pain, had a wbc count, and was tachycardic and found to have on ctap to have sbo with high grade transition point in the rlq. he was also noted to have some purulence coming from the inferior-most part of his surgical wound -- this grew ecoli but was not thought to be the sole reason for his fevers/leukocytosis as the supposed wound infection was quite small. he was started on empiric broad spectrum abx, surgery consulted, ngt placed, tpn started eventually. most of his oral medication regimen at that time was held. . he defervesced, but over the next ~5-6 days his sbo was not getting better, ngt was putting out >1l of bilious vomit per day, wbc count back up, and he was persistently tachycardic. repeat ct abdomen showed persistent high grade sbo in same location, getting worse with larger loops of bowel. surgery came and saw him, and said he was not operable because extremely poor prognosis and surgery would likely kill him. . so his sbo was medically managed with broad spectrum abx, ngt to suction, octreotide for secretions, and family was very aware and involved in the grim prognosis. on the night of he again flashed, got more hypoxic and required nrb mask, and was diuresed. at this point, in discussion with family, especially his wife, it became more and more apparent that the pt was dwindling further, and spiraling towards cmo. broad spectrum abx were stopped on , morphine was given more liberally. . patient was discharged to a skilled nursing facilty with comfort measures only. prior to discharge his pain was well controlled with concentrated oral morphine ml q2h:prn pain and air hunger. additionally he recieved 8 mg ondansetron odt q8h:prn for nausea and ativan 0.5-1 mg po q2h:prn anxiety, nausea or air hunger. his sbo was not active at the time of discharge, but earlier in his course his secretions and symptoms were well controlled with sc ondansetron tid. . transitional issues: -the patient is cmo and is not to be readmitted to the hospital. -would recomend sub cutaneous octreotide if bowel obstruction symptoms worsen -patient stable on oral morphine, ativan and zofran prn for symptom management as above. medications on admission: latanoprost 0.005 %

stress-related heart attack, fluid in your lungs causing low oxygen levels, fevers, a high white blood cell count, a fast heart rate. you had a cardiac catheterization that showed diffuse severe coronary artery disease but you were felt to be too high risk for interventions at this time, so your heart attack was treated medically. after the catheterization, you also had evidence of a small bowel obstruction, for which you were given broad spectrum antibiotics and were watched. this did not end up resolving, and our surgery colleagues felt you to be extremely high risk for surgery, and

shower because he slipped on some soap, and at that time denied any chest pain or shortness of breath. however, subsequently upon presenting to the emergency room, he started to develop chest pain, which felt similar to the pain he had had a few months ago at lgh. at lgh at that time, apparantly he was told that he might be a candidate for cardiac surgery; he was also evaluated at several years ago for surgery, which ultimately did not materialize. regardless, he had an cxr at lgh that was interpreted as congestive heart failure, and was dialyzed with the removal of four liters of fluid. he

200 mg . we continued his atorvastatin 80 mg daily, and increased his lisinopril to 40 mg daily (up from 2.5 mg daily at home). ldlcalc was 27, but in the setting of nstemi can be falsely low. hgba1c is low at 5.3%, indicating good control of his diabetes. the patient left the medical floor on appropriate medical therapy for his cad with a beta , , lisinopril, and high dose statin. # pump: per osh echo, patient has hypokinesis of the mid inferior, the apical inferior, and the basal inferior segments. ef on our echo does not demonstrate any focal hypokinesis, but confirms the ef aroudn 55% percent. patient is very volume overloaded given his hypertension in the setting of esrd. he underwent two dialysis sessions prior to his transfer to surgery, and were ultimately able to take off approximately 5 l of fluid. # esrd: secondary to longstanding diabetes, osh cr was 6.65. patient recieves dialysis as per hpi three times a week. he underewnt two sessions of dialysis prior to his transfer to surgery. we decreased his insulin glargine regimen from 15 u a day to 10 u a day given his excellent a1c control, and continued his sevelamer carbonate 800 mg po tid. # dm: patient hgba1c indicates excellent control of his home diabetes, and patient has had some issues with partially low bs. therefore we continued his long acting insulin at 10 u instead of 15 u. # bone scan findings: osh bone scan showed mild degenerative changes over the si joint, moderate focal skeletal lesions anterior left lateral aspect l2, anterior right latrael aspect l3, possibly suggesting focal traumatic changes or focal compression changes. the patient does not appear to have a colonoscopy per lgh records, but the patient's t-protein and albumin are both low. a psa screen is negative. as an outpatient, it will be appropriate for the patient to get age appropriate screen. # pna: patient has had a fever at osh to 103, and per cxr report had what looked like a multifocal pna. during his medicine admission he did nto have any fevers or elevations in his white count, or any cough with productive sputum. lgh records indicate that hte patient was treated for at least 7 days with both azithormycin as well as zosyn. given an appropriate treatment for what we believed to be a cap pna, we did not continue his antibiotics without any ill effects in terms of symptoms, wbc count, or fevers. repeat cxr shows possible pna in the rll, but we will presume that this is old in the setting of appropriate antibiotic treatment. urine cultures have been negative. cardiac surgery hospital course the patient was brought to the operating room on where the patient underwent cabg x5 (lima>lad, svg>diag, svg>om, svg>pda>plv). overall the patient tolerated the procedure well and post-operatively was transferred to the cvicu in stable condition for recovery and invasive monitoring. pod 1 the patient was extubated, alert and oriented and breathing comfortably. the patient was neurologically intact and hemodynamically stable. beta was initiated. nephrology continued to follow for hemodialysis. insulin was titrated to maintain fsbs < 120. the patient transferred to the telemetry floor for further recovery. chest tubes and pacing wires were discontinued without complication per cardiac surgery protocol. the patient worked with the physical therapy service for assistance with strength and mobility. by the time of discharge on pod 5 the patient was ambulating with assistance, the wound was healing and pain was controlled with oral analgesics. the patient was discharged to - in good condition with appropriate follow up instructions. medications on admission: lasix 40 mg po renagel 800 mg po simvastatin 80 mg daily toprol xl 30 mg po omeprazoel 20 mg po

(vascular medicine/cardiology attending) was consulted to evaluate for thrombolysis. after consultation with drs. and , a ivc filter was placed on via left brachial site without complication. please see procedure note for further details. on hd 1 he was transferred to the sicu where he spiked a temperature of 103.5. he was pancultured for fever. he was hydrated with iv d5w with bicarbonate and heparin was adjusted by q2 hour coags. his abg was improved. bilateral leg duplex ultrasound was done revealing old small clot in l sfv. on hd 3 he was experiencing increaed chest pain on the left side. this was concerning for reinfarction of lung. a cardiac echo revealed the following: the left atrium was normal in size. overall left ventricular systolic function appeared normal. due to suboptimal technical quality, a focal wall motion abnormality could not be fully excluded. right ventricular systolic function appeared normal. the aortic valve leaflets (3) appearred structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic regurgitation. the mitral valve appeared structurally normal with trivial mitral regurgitation. moderate tricuspid regurgitation was seen. there was moderate pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. there was no pericardial effusion.compared with the findings of the prior study (tape reviewed) of , there was no diagnostic change. an ekg was done that suggested signs of strain with rate of 110 in nsr. twave was down in va5-v6, inferior and lateral leads. cardiology was asked to evaluate. findings were reviewed with dr. and a repeat cta was suggested to assess stability of the thrombus. a cxr revealed no acute changes. zosyn and vancomycin were started for fever and iv fluid changed to d51/2ns at 75. urine output was good, pain was controlled with prn iv dilaudid and nebs were given. o2 sat was 99% on 50% face mask. he received a unit of prbc on for a hematocrit of 26. neurology was consulted on hd 4 for medication review for history of seizures and myoclonus. he was noted to be quite ataxic on exam. continuation of clonazepam and keppra were recommended as well as corrected dilantin level of 15-20. recommended eventual taper of dilantin with keppra as monotherapy, but not in the acute care setting due to high risk of seizure. dilantin was increased to 100mg tid with an extra dose given for corrected level of 10.9. on he was noted to be breathing better. cultures were normal. a ct of the abdomen without and with iv contrast was done for persistent elevated lfts. this revealed: the lung base images reveal the known pe demonstrated as big filling defects within the lower lobe arteries blaterally. there is a large consolidation within the right lower lobe, demonstrating either pneumonia or unusual infarct. the transplanted liver demonstrates numerous low-attenuation lesions throughout both lobes of the liver, all of them small, up to 3 cm except for one in segment v of the liver, which measures 6 x 4 cm. there is no enhancement within or around any of these lesions and there is no free air within them. they all demonstrate fluid attenuation, around 10 hounsfield units. periportal edema is demonstrated. there is no intra- or extrahepatic biliary dilatation. no arterial supply is demonstrated within the liver and a hepatic artery is demonstrated only proximally outside the liver. the portal vein, hepatic veins and ivc are patent. there are no enhancing lesions within the liver. there is a trace amount of fluid around the liver. the spleen is homogeneous and enlarged. the kidneys, adrenal glands, pancreas, and unopacified loops of small and large bowel are unremarkable. there is a filter in the ivc. there are multiple small lymph nodes, but no significant lymphadenopathy. given the liver findings, drainage was planned after hct of 24.7 was treated with 2 units of prbc. ast was108, alt 97, alk phos 436, t.bili 0.8 and hep c viral load was 13.1m. on he had drainage of a right lobe bilioma and a drain was placed. bilioma felt to be secondary to bile duct ischemia do to known hepatic artery thrombosis. he was relisted for liver transplant. neuorology reassessed h/o nonconvulsive seizures and myoclonus. dilantin taper was initiated. no seizures were noted during this hospital stay. a cardiac cath was performed on for evaluation of arterial hypertension and pe.pa mean was 22. he remained in icu on iv vancomycin, zosyn, bactrim, gancyclovir and fluconazole. cultures were negative. he was transfered to the transplant unit on hd 8. vital signs were stable. blood glucose increased to 400 which required iv insulin therapy. glucoses trended down and was consulted. insulin sliding scale with glargine was initiated.iv hydration was continued for decreased po intake and hyperglycemia. a foley was left in place do to difficulty with incontinence. urine cx negative. lung sounds remained diminished with o2 sat of 95%. coumadin 5mg was initiated on hd 15. inr increased to 3.5 after a second dose of 5mg of coumadin. heparin iv was stopped. inr decreased to 3.0 on hd 16. coumadin was resumed at 2mg. an cholangiogram was done on revealing small amount of contrast passing into a small normal size bile duct. extravasation was noted under capsule. study was stopped and normal size bile ducts were noted. a triphasic liver ct was performed.impression: 1) no hepatic arterial flow visible within the liver, as documented on prior imaging studies. patent portal vein. 2) multiple low-density areas within the liver consistent with infarct/biloma. a drain is located within one of these collections and contains some residual contrast material, which does not appear to connect to the biliary tree. 3) bilateral pulmonary emboli. right internal iliac vein thrombus visible, but ivc filter is also noted to be in place. 4) increased consolidation at the right lung base with increase in size of right partially loculated pleural effusion. pneumonia should be considered. on hd 16 () patient was insistent upon discharge to home against medical advise. he had been advised to stay another day to repeat coags. he refused and signed ama form. he will follow up in am for labs at hospital. the transplant coordinator will obtain results and adjust. he was given medication schedule with script for percocet# 20 and coumadin 2mg po qd. labs will be drawn twice weekly with results fax'd to transplant center. follow up appointments were reviewed. pt evaluated him and felt he was stable for discharge with home pt and a cane. vna will follow him at home. he was

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: history of present illness: baby boy (whose name is ) is a 39-week gestation infant admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit with hypoglycemia. mother is a 31-year-old gravida 1, para 0 (to 1). she had regular prenatal care. prenatal screens included blood type o positive, antibody negative, hepatitis b surface antigen negative, rapid plasma reagin nonreactive, rubella immune, and group b strep status negative. on fetal ultrasound, renal fullness was noted, although no true hydronephrosis was reported. the pregnancy was otherwise uncomplicated. delivery was by spontaneous vaginal delivery with apgar scores were 9 at one minute and 9 at five minutes. the baby was noted to be borderline small for gestation, and initial dextrose stick was 16 in the labor and delivery area. he was transported to the neonatal intensive care unit for further management. upon admission, he had an intravenous line placed and received d-10-w 2 ml/kg, and a follow-up glucose was drawn at that time and that was 67. physical examination on presentation: weight was 2588 grams (which is approximately the 10th percentile), length was 46 cm (the 25th percentile), and the head circumference was 33 cm (the 50th percentile). in general, the baby was , very , and appeared borderline small for gestational age, term infant. his temperature was 98.2, his heart rate was 110, his respiratory rate was 40, and his blood pressure by cuff was 63/39 with a mean of 48. head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat examination revealed his anterior fontanel was soft and flat. his eyes had equal and reactive pupils. he had bilateral red reflexes present. his chest was clear with equal breath sounds. cardiovascular examination revealed a regular rate and rhythm. normal first heart sound. split second heart sound. no murmurs. femoral pulses were strong, and perfusion was good. the abdomen was soft. no distention or fullness was noted. genitourinary revealed testes were descended bilaterally. normal penis. distal foreskin hypoplasia was noted. normal anus. neurologically, tone was within normal limits. the baby was jittery in the upper and lower extremities. he had a symmetric tone. he was alert and responsive. summary of hospital course by issue/system: 1. respiratory issues: was on room air and remained so during his hospital course. 2. cardiovascular issues: heart rate ran in the 110s to 130s with normal blood pressures throughout his hospital course. 3. fluids/electrolytes/nutrition issues: was maintained on intravenous fluids of d-10-w to remain euglycemic. he was also started on enteral feeds on days of life one to two with breast milk. he is breast feeding ad lib with occasional supplements. his intravenous fluids were weaned off gradually by day of life four. his blood glucose ranged from 55 to 82 during his intravenous wean. he was off intravenous fluids on the day of discharge () with normal blood sugars while breast feeding solely. he had normal electrolytes. he had good urine and stool output noted. 4. gastrointestinal issues: the baby was upon admission and had a bilirubin checked on day of life three which peaked at 10.8/0.4. a follow-up bilirubin the next day was 9.8/0.3. there was no phototherapy treatment. 5. hematologic issues: due to hypoglycemia upon admission, a complete blood count was checked. this showed a white blood cell count of 18 (with 80 polys, 3 bands, 11 lymphocytes, and 6 monocytes). his hematocrit was notable for polycythemia with a hematocrit of 68% and platelets of 90,000. due to the polycythemia and hypoglycemia, a partial exchange transfusion was performed on the newborn day. a follow-up hematocrit after a partial exchange transfusion was 53.7. platelets had increased to 98,000 at that time. white blood cell count remained stable at 16.6 (with 63 polys and 0 bands). a follow-up hematocrit on day of life four revealed a hematocrit of 57.8% and platelets of 105,000. reticulocyte count was 4.9% at this time. 6. infectious disease issues: the baby had a blood culture drawn upon admission and did not receive antibiotics. clinically, he remained well throughout his hospital stay. he also received a hepatitis b vaccine. 7. neurologic issues: the baby had a hearing screen prior to discharge and passed this. 8. renal/genitourinary issues: the baby had a circumcision done on without incident. he voided status post circumcision prior to discharge. due to the fullness in the renal pelvis during the prenatal ultrasound, recommendation is for a follow-up renal ultrasound approximately 2 weeks after discharge. 9. psychosocial issues: discharged home with parents with follow up with primary pediatric appointment in place with dr. of . condition at discharge: good. discharge disposition: is being discharged home today with his parents. primary pediatrician: dr. of . care and recommendations: 1. feeds at discharge: by breast feeding. 2. medications: none. 3. the

chest, . indication: metastatic renal cell carcinoma, with increasing hypoxia and hypotension. ? pe. comparison: multiple priors, most recently torso ct from . cta chest: there is no pulmonary embolism. thoracic aorta is normal in caliber and contour throughout. there is no dissection. right pleural effusion has increased in size, now moderate. small left pleural effusion is new. extensive mediastinal lymphadenopathy is not significantly changed. large conglomerate nodal mass in the right upper paratracheal area is grossly unchanged, now measuring 6.2 x 4.8 cm (previously 6.2 x 5.1 cm). large subcarinal and bulky right hilar lymphadenopathy is not significantly changed. ap window lymph node is stable in size. partial occlusion/invasion of the superior vena cava is unchanged. a tracheal y-stent has been placed since previous ct, which is patent. there is apparent slight narrowing of the right upper lobe bronchus (3, 44) which appears increased since previous exam. right main pulmonary artery passes directly through the conglomerate lymphadenopathy, but is not attenuated. small pericardial effusion is unchanged. multiple parenchymal nodules and pleural-based nodules are not significantly changed. moderate right basilar atelectasis is new. scattered small centrilobular ground-glass and semi-solid nodules in the left lower lobe, and in portions of the anterior right upper lobe, and superior segment of the right lower lobe may represent small foci of infection or aspiration. this study is not specifically tailored for subdiaphragmatic evaluation. limited views of the upper abdomen show multiple foci of early arterial hyperenhancement in the liver parenchyma which have not been visualized on previous imaging (though there is no prior imaging) which includes an early arterial phase for direct comparison. partially imaged hardware is seen at the site of recent c7 corpectomy, bone graft, and plating, at the location of known pathologic fracture, which is better evaluated on recently performed mri of the cervical spine. there is no other definite osseous lesion suspicious for malignancy. impression: 1. no pulmonary embolism. 2. increased pleural effusions, right greater than left. 3. no significant change in widespread pulmonary/pleural, and mediastinal metastases. 4. unchanged thrombus/partial occlusion of the superior vena cava. 5. multiple small foci of early arterial hyperenhancement in the liver. given absence of prior arterial phase imaging for comparison, it is unclear if this is a new finding. most likely, these represent hemangiomas, but if there are liver function abnormalities, or clinical concern for liver metastases, abdominal ultrasound could be performed for correlation. echocardiography report , portable tte

hospital course: pt was admitted to neurosurgery service after complaints of weeks of progressive weakness in the left hand. after hospitalization it was revealed that the pt had an outpt bronchoscopy that left her with some upper extremity weakness x 1 week. she then sought chiropractic care for neck pain that left her with some lue weakness. imaging of the cervical spine revealed c7 pathological fracture renal cell mets. after she was admitted she was placed in a hard collar. she was readied for the or and on went to neuro interventional radiology for pre-op embolization prior to or. after the embolization she remained intubated but appeared to have left leg weakness. her sedation was lightened on the way to the or and she was unable to move all 4 extremities. she was then placed in traction in or and underwent c7 corpectomy. she was also started on solumedrol protocol for spine injury. she tolerated the procedure and was kept intubated and transferred to pacu where she remained overnight for close monitoring. she also underwent mri of brain which demontrated the following: metastasis in the left frontal lobe and left occipital lobe. tiny areas of acute infarct in the cerebellum seen as restricted diffusion. normal mra of the head. she also underwent mri c-spine which showed increased signal within the spinal cord from c2-t1 level could be due to ischemia or cord

motor exam improved slightly and she was moving her right arm with slight movement left hand/wrist. dressing was clean and dry. on pt. was extubated and then re-intubated secondary to failure to clear secretions. two days later she was started on broad spectrum antibiotics for fevers and empiric coverage of vap. family meeting held to decide on another trial of extubation and then trach if needed. no further oncological treatment offered. pt aware and agrees with this plan. the patient was successfully extubated a few days later and is tolerating a face tent for oxygenation. on the patient was observed to have some focal motor seizures characterized by arm tremmors. she required frequent bolus' of dilantin and was transition to keppra for sz control. she was seen by speech therapy and was ultimately cleared for a diet after extubation and when she was able to tolerate it safely. in the meantime she was fed via ngt. her respiratory status was fluctuating and there was some discussion as to if the pt should be electively trached if she required reintubation. ultimately she did not require reintubation so this became a mute point. she did express that she did not want hospice and that she would like to pursue agressive therapy and be transferred to rehab. she was bronch'd on the for increasing rll infiltrates and right lung collapse. neurologically she improved in her upper extremity exam with more stength proximally than distally. her lower extremity exam has remained poor. ultimately her respiratory status improved so that she could tolerate a video swallow eval. her ngt was removed and she was placed on thin liquids and moist ground solids. nutrition consult was obtained to assess caloric intake. she was re-seen by interventional pulmonary to assist in clearing

lobe, the lungs are grossly clear. there is no pneumothorax or pleural effusion. brief hospital course: mr. is a 58 year old man with a history of metastatic melanoma with brain metastases who presents with constipation and abdominal pain. his initial kub and c-xray on admission did not show evidence of free air in the abdomen, and revealed only fecal loading in the colon. he was initially admitted to the medical service for further evaluation of his abdominal pain and treatment of his presumed constipation. he was given stool softeners and a bowel regimen and hydrated with iv fluids. his dexamethasone was continued. blood and urine cultures were obtained on admission which have no growth. on his abdominal pain did not improve and a ct of abd/pelvis was contained which demonstrated sb perforation with contrast extravasation. the acute care surgery service was consulted and took mr. to the operating room on for a small bowel resection with primary anastomosis. findings intra-operatively included diffuse intra-abdominal metastatic melanoma including two areas of proximal small bowel perforation with related purulent peritonitis. please see note by dr. for further details. pt tolerated the procedure well and was brought to the sicu intubated for further care under the acs service. shortly after arrival to the sicu patient was deemed stable for extubation. pain was initially controlled with dilaudid pca though switched to intermittent dilaudid poor patient comprehension of pca usage. patient remained a&ox3 though confused and perseverative as was apparent preoperative baseline. remained hemodynamically stable without pressor requirement and did require intermittent iv hydralazine for hypertension. pulmonary toilet was encourage and patient complied with this appropriately. pt kept npo and hydrated w ivf. ngt placed intra-operatively was self-d/c'd by pt following extubation. foley catheter was kept in place throughout icu stay and patient made adequate urine without need for ivf bolus. from an endocrine standpoint pt was restarted on preoperative dose of steroids on pod1. stress dose steroids were not given or required. consideration given to fludrocortisone though electrolytes remained within appropriate balance and this was deferred. insulin sliding scale was utilized to maintain euglycemia. cipro and flagyl were continued postop while in sicu to prophylax against tertiary peritonitis and pt remained afebrile while in sicu. on pt deemed appropriate for floor xfer given stable hemodynamics and appropriate recovery. his vitals signs were routinely monitored on the floor and he remained hemodynamically stable and afebrile. of note, he continued to have an oxygen requirement of only 1-2l nc, and mild crackles were noted on lung exam on . a cxray was obtained which showed only mild lll atelectasis. incentive spirometry was encouraged and his oxygen saturations remained stable in the low 90's on room air at discharge. on he reported passing flatus. he was started on sips of clear liquids and his diet was advanced slowly over the next 48 hours. prior to discharge he had a bowel movement and was tolerating a regular diet without nausea or abdominal pain. however, it was noted that he had a decrease in appetite and poor po intake. he was started on an appetite stimulant (marinol) as well as ensure supplements. his poor intake was thought to be related to his depressed/flat affect, and he was also started on a low dose of lexapro for this. palliative care was consulted who recommneded changing the marinol to ritalin. he continued to pass flatus and deny symptoms of nausea or abdominal pain. a foley catheter was placed intraoperatively and removed on , at which time he voided without difficulty. his intake and output were closely monitored throughout the remainder of his hospitalization. physical therapy was consulted to evaluate the patient's mobility status who recommended rehab when medically cleared. he was encouraged to mobilize out of bed as tolerated throughout his hospitalization. he was also started on sc heparin for dvt prophylaxis. palliative care was also consulted given the patient's prognosis and diagnosis of metastatic melanoma. the discussion of post hospital care included options of rehab, home with hospice, or home with vna bridging to hospice care. the discussion occurred with both the patient and his wife, who expressed the desire for rehab upon leaving the hospital. today, he feels well from his abdominal surgery and is preparing for discharge. his vital signs are stable and he is without complaints of abdominal pain. he has evidence of bowel function. he is scheduled for acs follow as well as follow up with dr. . medications on admission:

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: history of present illness: patient is a 54-year-old gentleman who presented with dysphagia last year with endoscopic diagnosis of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the esophagus with a lesion seen 30 to 33 cm with partial esophageal obstruction and two similar masses more distal. endoscopic ultrasound at the time showed tumor through the muscularis and one enlarged lymph node clinically stated at t3. there was no evidence of distal metastasis at the time of staging. he next underwent adjunctive chemotherapy and radiotherapy followed by esophageal gastrectomy in . approximately three weeks later, the patient developed severe lower back pain with further work up. he was found to have metastatic lesions at the l2, l3 level. needle biopsy was positive for mets for poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. the patient underwent a vertebroplasty at per dr. in and subsequently completed xrt. he was admitted most recently to with recurrent respiratory distress and hypotension, stabilized in the icu. it was noted that his lower back pain was increasing in the past two to three days. he complained of mild onset of paresthesias to the left lower extremity and he was diagnosed with a right middle lobe and right lower lobe pneumonia by chest x-ray. ct scan of the chest was positive for infiltrates. he was transferred to for further management of his l2-l3 metastasis. mri showed significant compression of the thecal sac. patient also has a past medical history of diabetes type 2 and past surgical history of distal esophagectomy and partial gastrectomy.

patient underwent anterior vertebroplasty from the l2-l4 levels by dr. on without inter-procedure complication. the patient was stable neurologically. he was taken to the or on for l2-l3 vertebrectomy. during the removal of the methacrylate from the l2-l3 disc space, a large amount of anterior bleeding was encountered emanating from the region of the aorta. this was quickly packed off with large sponges and manual pressure. this was maintained until vascular cardiac surgeons arrived. they achieved vascular control and repaired the laceration of the aorta. due to ongoing pressure requirements and metabolic derangements following vascular repair, the decision was made to not proceed with the vertebrectomy and spinal stabilization. during closure of the skin, the patient developed a wide complex heart rhythm, v-tach, v-fib and requiring cpr. normal sinus rhythm was achieved and patient was transferred to the csru for close monitoring. he had four liters of blood loss at the time and also had a clot in the distal aorta on cross clamping which caused loss of pulses in the lower extremities below the femoral arteries. on , the patient was awake, alert, following commands and moving all extremities spontaneously and to command. he had positive pulses in his lower extremities with the exception of the right dp. his temperature was 100.3 f, blood pressure was

requiring liver transplantation, the patient is currently on liver transplant list. 2. hypertension. 3. history of nephrolithiasis. medications on admission: 1. aldactone 50 mg. 2. lasix 20 mg. 3. flagyl 250 mg three times per day. 4. quinine 325 mg once per day. 5. protonix 40 mg once per day. 6. magnesium oxide 800 mg twice per day. 7. oxycodone 2 mg to 4 mg as needed. allergies: the patient has allergies to codeine (which causes gastrointestinal upset). social history: he lives at home with his wife. is a past alcohol abuser who now works as a substance abuse counselor. family history: significant for father who died of a myocardial infarction at the age of 38. physical examination on presentation: on admission, the patient was afebrile. he had a blood pressure of 130/58, a pulse of 70, a respiratory rate of 20, and was saturating 97% on room air. he was in no apparent distress. he was anicteric. his pupils were reactive. his extraocular movements were intact. the lungs were clear bilaterally. his cardiac examination showed normal first heart sounds and second heart sounds with a 2/6 systolic murmur at the right upper sternal border. his abdomen was soft, mildly distended, and nontender. he had no peripheral edema. pertinent laboratory values on presentation: he had a white blood cell count of 5.6, his hematocrit was 28.4, and he had platelets of 101. he had an inr of 1.9. chemistry-7 showed an initial creatinine of 4.2 with a potassium of 6.7. after gentle fluids and treatment for his potassium, he had a repeat potassium of 5.7 and a creatinine of 3.9. he had an alanine-aminotransferase of 57, his aspartate aminotransferase was 166, his alkaline phosphatase was 101, and his total bilirubin was 3.7. pertinent radiology/imaging: an electrocardiogram showed a normal sinus rhythm. there were no peaked t waves. otherwise, his electrocardiogram was normal. brief summary of hospital course: the patient was admitted for his acute renal insufficiency. his lasix and his aldactone were held. his hyperkalemia responded well to his kayexalate therapy. the patient was noted to have some mild periorbital erythema and edema on the right side of his face. he was initially started on doxycycline for this presumed preseptal cellulitis. the patient's creatinine did initially improve; however, it started to increase again slowly during the course of his hospital stay. initially, it was felt that the patient's initial presentation of acute renal insufficiency was secondary to aggressive diuresis; however, in the setting of his diuretics being held and his continued increase in his creatinine, it was possible that he could have the initial stages of hepatorenal syndrome. the patient has had elevated creatinines on previous hospitalizations, presumed to be related to hepatorenal syndrome. the patient was started on octreotide and midodrine. also in the setting of his acute renal insufficiency, his tetracycline was held as it was possible that this could be a contributing factor. an ophthalmology consultation was obtained which showed just some very mild preseptal cellulitis with no orbital signs or symptoms suggestive of an orbital cellulitis. the patient's doxycycline was discontinued in favor of keflex. the patient did have urine eosinophils and sediment checked. he had bland sediment which was not consistent with an acute tubular necrosis type picture. the patient was also transfused with 2 units of packed red blood cells for a low hematocrit early on during the course of his hospital stay. the patient did not have any upper endoscopy as his anemia was not suspected to be secondary to esophageal varices. the patient's creatinine continued to rise in the setting of his octreotide and midodrine therapy. because of this, albumin 25 grams intravenously once per day was also started. on , the patient became encephalopathic. blood cultures and urine cultures were sent, and he did have an episode of occult-blood positive stools. in the setting of his encephalopathy, his renal function did improve; however, he was transferred to the unit for further observation. a nasogastric lavage was done in the setting of his occult-blood positive stool. the nasogastric lavage was negative for blood. he did have a stat head computed tomography which was negative for bleed. all sedatives were discontinued, and he was started on lactulose therapy. a chest x-ray there was negative for a pneumonia. the patient did have serial blood cultures done. he did have a total of blood cultures positive for methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococcus. his mental status did improve on lactulose therapy. the origin of his staphylococcal bacteremia was still uncertain. in this setting, he did have a diagnostic paracentesis done which was negative for spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. the patient was started on vancomycin for his high-grade bacteremia. he did have a transesophageal echocardiogram done which was negative for endocarditis. per the infectious disease staff, it was recommended that he be treated with four to six weeks of vancomycin from the date of his last positive blood cultures which were . the patient was transferred back to the floor with an improved mental status and improved renal function. he did well on the floor. his hematocrit remained stable. he remained afebrile on vancomycin. the patient also completed a course of levofloxacin for his preseptal cellulitis. for his preseptal cellulitis, he received a total of 10 days of antibiotics which included doxycycline, keflex, and levofloxacin. the patient did have good nutritional intake while on the floor. his creatinine remained in the 1.6 to 1.9 range on the floor and stable. his baseline creatinine is around 1. he was not started on diuretics at discharge. a peripherally inserted central catheter line was placed for administration of intravenous vancomycin for his high-grade methicillin-resistant staphylococcus epidermitis bacteremia. the patient was seen by physical therapy and was discharged from their service as he had no acute physical therapy needs. the patient did have a candidal infection of his groin area which was treated with topical anti-fungal medications, to which he responded well to. toward the end of his hospital stay, the patient did have increased diarrhea. his lactulose was held which improved his diarrhea somewhat; however, he did complain of increased diarrhea. he did have clostridium difficile toxins times three days which were sent. these were negative for clostridium difficile. the patient was discharged on no diuretics; however, the possibility of restarting aldactone 50 mg will be considered as an outpatient. he will be discharged with a total course of four to six weeks of vancomycin. the start date on his vancomycin was . condition at discharge: fair. discharge status: to home. discharge diagnoses: 1. hepatitis c cirrhosis; awaiting liver transplantation. 2. acute renal failure. 3. methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococcal bacteremia; on vancomycin. medications on discharge: 1. miconazole nitrate powder applied three times per day as needed to groin rash. 2. protonix 40 mg q.12h. 3. lactulose 30 ml by mouth three times per day (titrated to four to five bowel movements per day). 4. vancomycin 1 gram intravenously q.12h. (for a total of six weeks); his vancomycin dose will be changed per trough levels and his renal function. discharge instructions/followup: the patient was to follow up in the liver clinic in two days from discharge. , m.d. dictated by: medquist36 procedure: venous catheterization, not elsewhere classified diagnostic ultrasound of heart percutaneous abdominal drainage gastric lavage transfusion of packed cells transfusion of other serum diagnoses: hyperpotassemia cirrhosis of liver without mention of alcohol chronic hepatitis c without mention of hepatic coma acute kidney failure, unspecified bacteremia other sequelae of chronic liver disease staphylococcus infection in conditions classified elsewhere and of unspecified site, other staphylococcus other diuretics causing adverse effects in therapeutic use Answer: The patient is high likely exposed to

effusion. his coumadin was later resumed at a lower dose. he was hypertensive and started on lisinopril and betablockade increased as tolertated. he has had brief episodes of svt/afib but nothing sustained. he was started on a statin for the first time which he is tolerating well. his renal function has remained stable and he is being discharged to home on one week course of lasix for continued gentle diureses. his blood sugars have been stable and he is on his pre-op dose of glucophage. he was seen by pt and cleared for discharge to home on pod# 6. his follow-up appointments were not arranged at the time of discharge and the office will need to call with dates. his coumadin will be managed by the cardiac surgery service # until arrangement can be made for him to f/u with his

patient is high likely exposed to

malaria

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: allergies: patient recorded as having no known allergies to drugs attending: chief complaint: altered mental status major surgical or invasive procedure: r ij central line picc line placed for long term iv access for intravenous antibiotics. cholecystostomy tube placed by radiology foley catheter history of present illness: mr. is a 62 year old gentleman with history of multiple sclerosis, disorder, dementia, and chronic indwelling foley with recurrent utis (including esbl klebsiella) presented from his nursing home with altered mental status. in communication with his pcp and , the patient's baseline mental status is alert and talkative(occasionally rambling), but he became lethargic and somnolent beginning the day prior to admission at the nursing home. he reportedly had a u/a and culture sent 3 days prior to admission which revealed vre (reportedly only sensitive to macrodantin) and proteus. his nurse practitioner felt he was likely colonized with vre and proteus was sensitive to ampicillin, thus he was started on ampicillin at that time. at that time, he was also felt to be fecally obstructed, so he was given a fleets enema to which he responded well. on the evening prior to admission, in addition to his change in mental status, he was found to be tachycardic to the low 100s. he was, however, afebrile and systolic blood pressures were consistently in the 100s-120s. his mental status declined overnight at the nursing home and he was transferred to the ed for further evaluation and management. . in the ed, his initial vitals revealed: hr 107 bp 98/28 rr 14 o2sat 100%on nrb-->ra; no temperature was recorded. he was noted to have abdominal discomfort and suprapubic fullness. his foley was found to be obstructed and when resolved, was noted to drain frank pus from his bladder. labs demonstrated wbc count of 27 with 16% bandemia and an elevated lactate to 10.5 which decreased to 8.6 with iv fluids. a ct abd/pelvis was obtained to rule out bowel ischemia and surgery was consulted. ct abd/pelvis did not reveal ischemia of the gut, but did note thickening of perirectal and sigmoid wall believed consistent with chronic laxative use vs. infectious/inflammatory etiology. a cxr showed a retrocardiac opacity thought to represent atelectasis vs. consolidation. blood and urine cultures were sent and he received vanco/levofloxacin/flagyl. given his altered mental status, a head ct was obtained which was negative for hemorrhage and mass effect. . although it is not clearly documented, he reportedly received 7l ns iv fluid resuscitation. his ed course was complicated by multiple attempts at central venous access and he was initially started on peripheral dopamine to maintain his blood pressure. a right ij was then placed and maps remained in the low 50s so levophed was started in addition to dopamine prior to his transfer to the icu. . ros: unable to obtain secondary to altered mental status. past medical history: # secondary progressive ms: first symptoms in ;

decision: following the injection of autologous white blood cells labeled with in-111, images of the whole body were obtained. these images show no abnormal foci of tracer accumulation. the above findings are consistent with no radiologic evidence of any fever focus. however, the sensitivity of the study for detection of occult infection is decreased by prolonged antibiotic use. impression: no radiologic evidence of any focal fever source with limitations as noted above. picc change - impression: successful exchange of a previously placed picc line over the wire with a new placement of 35 cm double-lumen line picc line with tip in the distal part of the svc. the line is ready for use. cxr - lung volumes remain quite low. subsegmental atelectasis in the left mid lung is unchanged since , new since . upper lungs clear. no pneumonia or pulmonary edema. small bilateral pleural effusion may be present. heart size normal. tip of the right pic catheter projects over the superior cavoatrial junction. upep -

icu course: on presentation the patient met criteria for sirs and sepsis: wbc of 27, tachycardic and a source of infection, thought to be most likely urosepsis given frank pus drainage from the bladder, history of recurrent infections and his foley found to be obstructed. in review of past culture data, utis in the past have grown pansensitive e. coli and esbl resistant klebsiella previously sensitive to meropenem, imipenem, zosyn. per nursing home report, urine cultures from 3 days pta grew vre (sensitivities unknown) and proteus. he has also had multiple wound swabs that revealed mrsa and pseudomonas, thus, it was thought also reasonable to initially cover for mrsa. his wounds, however, do not appear to be infected and were thought unlikely to be a contributing source of sepsis. the ct of the abdomen did not appear consistent with bowel ischemia, but the patient was initially started on flagyl given colonic thickening. upon arrival to the icu, his cvp initially was , on a dopamine, levophed and vasopressin drip. a cortisol stimulation test was negative for adrenal suppression. with input from id, the patient was started on meropenem and daptomycin and flagyl was continued. we were able to wean the dopamine to off on day 1 in the icu, and levophed and vasopressin were weaned on day 2. cvp was maintained between with 500cc lr boluses on day 3, and the patient did not require additional boluses on day 4. by day 4 he was assessed as stable, recovering from the septic picture, and fit to be called out to the floor. blood cultures grew gnrs which were identified as proteus on day 3 (sensitivities above) (). based on sensitivities, iv meropenem was continued and daptomycin was discontinued. on the floor, meropenem was continued. however he started having fevers again and hence flagyl was restarted. multiple tests done to identify source of infection - mri spine - no abscess or osteomyelitis, echo no ie. cultures neg. no c diff. no picc infection, foley changed. id was consulted and ct abd, hida done that confirmed acute cholecystitis. surgery deemed the patient a poor surgical candidate and hence a cholesystostomy tube was placed by ir. abx were changed to aztreonam. wbc scan prior to dc was normal. patient finally remained afebrile for > 4 days prior to discharge. he is to complete a 2 wk course of iv aztreonam - day 1 . flagyl was stopped after about a 3 wk course. patient advised a follow up appointment with dr from infectious disease in 2 weeks as well as on - patient should get a cbc, chem 7 for monitoring and results to be faxed as stated below to dr who will check the results. brief ca work up as a fever source (psa, spep, upep) normal. acute retention of urine was resolved after foley was placed. patient may be advised if an spc is desired to see dr in clinic given recurrent utis and obstruction due to ms. disorder: the patient had a tonic-clonic on the first night of admission, that resolved spontaneously within 2 minutes. this was likely exacerbated by his septic state. his phenytoin and carbamazapine levels were normal. he has been -free since then. he was maintained on his outpatient doses of phenytoin and carbamazapine. after a speech and swallow evaluation, his diet was advanced as below. regular diet per second swallow evaluation. acute renal failure: baseline creatinine is 0.4-0.9. initial bump in creatinine most likely was secondary to obstruction, but also given hemoconcentration and response to fluids, appeared to be prerenal as well. given frank pus from bladder, ascending b/l pyelo was a concern, but ct a/p, albeit without contrast, did not show evidence of this. creatinine back to baseline 2-3 days after initiation of volume resuscitation. coagulopathy: inr was elevated to 1.5, then 2.2 in the absence of blood thinning agents. given his poor nutritional status, may be a result of vit k deficiency, but certainly was concerning in the setting of sepsis. platelet count was normal. d-dimer decreasing steadily, stable fibrinogen reassuring that dic is unlikely. - inr normalized with 3 daily doses of vitamin k . # ekg changes: t wave inversions in septal leads most likely reflected lead placement, but new from most recent ekg. mb index negative x2. ruled out for mi by cardiac enzymes, cardiac ischemia was unlikely. no events were seen on tele during the icu stay. patient remained cp free. . # elevated lfts: initially the process could be related to the sepsis. however, later he did have acute cholecystitis refer above. lft continued to trend down during admission. normal at discharge. # pancreatitis attributed to ileus from ms -

view of the chest is compared to previous exam from . compared to prior, there has been interval improvement of aeration at the lung bases. there are some persistent bibasilar opacities, right greater than left. cardiomediastinal silhouette is stable as are the osseous and soft tissue structures. impression: mild interval improvement in the previously seen bibasilar opacities which persist. these could be due to resolving infiltrates or atelectasis or potentially aspiration. ct head findings: there is no acute intra-axial or extra-axial hemorrhage, mass, midline shift, or territorial infarct. right occipital lobe encephalomalacia as well as regions of encephalomalacia centered in the right middle cerebellar peduncle are again seen. global volume loss of the cerebellum is again noted. elsewhere, -white matter differentiation is preserved. there is partial opacification of the inferior right mastoid air cells. mucous retention cyst seen in the right maxillary sinus. other paranasal sinuses and left mastoids are clear. the skull and extracranial soft tissues are unremarkable. impression: no acute intracranial process. encephalomalacia within the right occipital lobe and right middle cerebellar peduncle, unchanged from prior tte: poor image quality.the left atrium is normal in size. no atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale is seen by 2d, color doppler or saline contrast with maneuvers. no late contrast is seen in the left heart (suggesting absence of intrapulmonary shunting). there is mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size and regional/global systolic function (lvef>55%). there is no ventricular septal defect. the right ventricular cavity is dilated with mild global free wall hypokinesis. there is abnormal septal motion/position. the diameters of aorta at the sinus, ascending and arch levels are normal. the aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic stenosis is not present. no aortic regurgitation is seen. the mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. there is no mitral valve prolapse. trivial mitral regurgitation is seen. the tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. the tricuspid regurgitation jet is eccentric and may be underestimated. the pulmonary artery systolic pressure could not be determined. there is no pericardial effusion. compared with the prior study (images reviewed) of , due to poor image quality on prior study, a direct comparison of rv size nad function is not possible. the current study suggests a more dilated/dysfunctional rv though. lower-extremity venous u/s impression: no deep vein thrombosis. cxr 1. nasogastric tube is seen coursing below the diaphragm with the tip not identified. left internal jugular central line has its tip in the proximal svc. there continues to be diffuse bilateral airspace process with probable associated layering effusions. this may reflect worsening pulmonary edema, although superimposed bilateral pneumonia cannot be entirely excluded. clinical correlation is advised. no pneumothorax is seen. overall, cardiac and mediastinal contours are likely stable, but somewhat difficult to assess due to diffuse airspace process. head ct impression: no acute intracranial process identified to explain patient's neurologic decline. eeg (from neurology note) eeg was done and showed spikes of 3hz with right hemispheric predominance. video swallow findings: barium passes freely through the oropharynx and esophagus without evidence of obstruction. there was evidence of intermittent penetration of thin, as well as intermittent aspiration of nectar consistency. for further details, please refer to speech and swallow division note in omr. preliminary report impression: penetration of thin consistency and aspiration of nectar consistency, both intermittently. brief hospital course: active problems #rhabdomyolysis- pt found on the ground for an extended period of time which could be the cause for his rhabdo. pt received aggressive iv fluid to try to maintaine a 200cc urine output while not compromissing his respiratory status. his ck eventually came down but cr was still elevated. renal was consulted and recommended no hd. pt still producing urine and cr was stable. creatinine stabilized at 1.6-1.7. this likely represents his new baseline. he continued to have good urine output throughtout rest of admission. #elevated trop- pt has signigicant elevation of trop. ekg similar to previous. pt received 325 . his ck-mb index was never elevated and trop was not raising so a cards consult was not obtained. #atn: muddy brown cast found in urine . most likely to rhabdo. improving toward baseline. most likely ckd at this point. cr remains stable at 1.7. good urine output maintained throughout admission. pt. to follow-up with renal as outpatient #hypoxemia- chronic o2 requirment likely multifactorial related to pulmonary htn, copd, osa, ohs. current increase in o2 requirement likely pe vs heart failure. unable to obtain cta at this time due to pt . has been improving with diuresis and thus it is most likely chf/pulmonary edema, less likely pe, heparin was switched to subcut. as patient continues to improve with diuresis, did not pursue further pe work-up. treated with vanco and cefipime after 8 day hcap coverage. currently no clinical evidence of pneumonia. pt. responded well to iv lasix 40mg . upon discharge, pt. likely at his baseline hypoxemia. no evidence of significant pulmonary edema on most recent cxr and only mild bibasilar crackles on exam. still 5 liters net positive for length of stay aggressive fulid resuscitation for severe rhabdo upon initial presentation. would recommend continued diuresis to achieve euvolemia and optimize respiratory status. renal function slowly improving, so patient likely able to autodiurese soon. though not confirmed, pt. likely has significant pulmonary htn based on old tte, recent chest ct with enlarged pa, and multiple pulmonary htn risk factors as outlined above. pt. scheduled to follow in pulmonary clinic with dr. for further w/u and treatment of this presumed pulmonary htn. at time of discharge, pt. saturating in low 90s on nasal canula, which is likely around his baseline oxygenation. no pulmonary symptoms. #new onset seizure activity- pt experienced change in mental status while in the icu with echolalia, confusion, and leftward gaze deviation with random leftward saccadic eye movements.. a ct head was ordered which showed nap and eeg which showed epileptiform discharges. neurology was called and pt was placed on keppra. his mental status improved significantly back to baseline without any further evidence of seizure activity or changes in mental status. pt. to be discharged on keppra 500mg . pt. will f/u in epilepsy clinic in weeks time after discharge for furthur management. #nutrition - video swallow. speech therapy recommend ground solids with nectar thickened liquids. likely chronic aspirator to prior cva. pt. to be discharged on this diet. chronic problems #htn - antihypertensives were held throughout admission, particularly in setting of agressive diuresis following resolution of rhabdo. metoprolol and triamterene-hctz can be restarted once pt. back to euvolemia. #hiv - pt. was maintained on his regimen of saquinavir and ritonavir transitional issues #volume overload - upon discharge, pt. net positive 5 liters for length of stay. has been getting iv lasix 40mg . would recommend continuing diuresis with goal of euvolemia. diuresis was associated with significant improvement of pt.'s respiratory status. discharged on 5l nc, with saturations in low 90s. probably will only require a couple more days of diuresis, as renal function continues to improve toward his baseline. would recommend checking daily electrolytes while actively diuresing and while cr continuing to normalize. medications on admission: 1. aspirin 81 mg

instructions: dear mr. , it was a pleasure taking part in your care here at . you were admitted for muscle breakdown known as rhabdomyolysis caused by your fall. this muscle breakdown caused damage to your kidneys, which was treated with iv fluids. your kidneys and the muscle breakdown improved with iv fluids. you also developed a pneumonia, which was treated with iv antibiotics and your breathing improved. you continued to require more oxygen than normal. this was likely due to some of the fluid that you received backing up into your lungs. we treated this with a medicine called lasix, which helped to remove fluid, and your breathing improved. you also had a period during which you were very confused. we performed a brain activity test called an eeg which showed some seizure activity. we treated this with an anti-seizure medication called keppra. your mental status improved significantly and is now back to normal. you are being transferred to a rehabilitation facility where they will continue to remove fluid to help improve your breathing. they will also work on regaining your strength through physical therapy. it is likely that you have a lung disease known as pulmonary hypertension. this is likely why your oxygen levels are always low. it will be very important that you follow-up with your pulmonologist (lung doctor) dr. . followup instructions: department: medical

eosinophils. hematocrit 31.8, baseline in the 30s. platelets 243, inr 1.2, bun 100, creatinine 3.4, baseline creatinine 1.2. chest x-ray was performed in the emergency department. trach was seen to be in place, cardiomegaly, pleural effusion left greater then right. portable ap film upon admission demonstrated patchy bilateral opacities. electrocardiogram was sinus rate of 75, t wave inversion in 1 and avl. hospital course: 1. cardiovascular: the patient has a history of atrial fibrillation. his outpatient regimen of sotalol and metoprolol was continued as the patient was stable in normal sinus rhythm. an echocardiogram was obtained demonstrating left ventricular ef of 40%. normal rv wall motion and size, 1+ ar, 1 to 2+ mitral regurgitation, moderate . no pericardial effusion. the patient was continued on aspirin and statin for his coronary artery disease. he was continued on hydralazine and isosorbide dinitrate prn for his hypertension and congestive heart failure. the patient had rare ectopy and was monitored on telemetry. 2. pulmonary: the patient was stabilized on pressure support of 5, peep of 5 early in his hospital stay. his trach was removed to allow for healing of the pharyngeal tissue. an endotracheal tube was placed with a cuff just above the carina. the tube unfortunately resulted in frequent desaturations with large leaks. the tube was emergently changed and eventually the patient's tracheostomy was replaced. on the morning of this dictation the patient had a desaturation. chest x-ray demonstrated new onset mass consistent with a large intraparenchymal bleed. prior to this the patient's chest x-rays were negative except for diffuse pulmonary edema. this intraparenchymal bleed was in the context of thrombocytopenia. the patient was stabilized with platelet transfusion and was put on assist control. 3. renal: on prior admissions the patient's bun and creatinine were within normal limits. the etiology of his acute renal failure is unknown, however, it is believed to be acute tubular necrosis as many brown casts were observed in his urine. the renal service was consulted. eventually the patient required hemodialysis. 4. infectious disease: the patient demonstrated peritracheal necrosis and infection. vre, pseudomonas and mssa grew from his cultures. he was initially treated with one week of vancomycin and ceftazidime, however, once cultures and sensitivities grew back he was switched to linezolid and cefepime. as a result of his developing thrombocytopenia he was switched to synercid and estrianam. on the day of this dictation the patient received 18 days of antibiotics in addition to the one week of vancomycin and ceptaz. he has been afebrile with a normal white count for over a week, however, his tracheostomy site continues to exude green foul smelling discharge. 5. gastrointestinal: the patient was initially started on tube feeds. these were not well tolerated with high residuals. the possibility of changing the g tube to a j tube was discussed, however, due to the patient's other medical issues, we are currently holding off on this decision. as the patient's thrombocytopenia worsened, he began to develop clots in the j tube aspiration. the stomach was lavaged to clear. nevertheless, gastroenterology was consulted who recommended holding off on scope unless platelets were greater then 100 and continued to bleed. 6. hematology: the patient has anemia of chronic disease. he receives epo at hemodialysis. he received several units of packed red blood cells when his hematocrit was low. over the course of his stay he developed a gradual thrombocytopenia initially felt to be related to linezolid, however, after a switch to synasid the thrombocytopenia did not improve. hib antibody was negative. nevertheless heparin was held. there was no evidence of improvement in the platelet count from that either as the patient developed complications listed above, he was transfused with platelets. hematology was consulted. the dic panel was checked and felt to be borderline. ultimately the diagnosis of thrombocytopenia of critical illness was made. 7. endocrine/diabetes mellitus: the patient was initially started on half his outpatient nph dose and regular insulin sliding scale. when he required total parenteral nutrition instead of tube feeds insulin was included in his total parenteral nutrition. he had occasional hyperglycemia, but in general his finger sticks were well controlled. the patient is also hypothyroid. synthroid was continued during his stay. 8. fen: as the patient was not tolerating tube feeds and demonstrated aspiration and tube feed leakage out of his trach site, he was started on total parenteral nutrition via his picc line. he developed hyponatremia felt to be related to his renal failure, which improved with withholding free water. the patient's fluid overload was managed with dialysis. this summary includes hospital events through . the remainder of the hospital course will be dictated by separate cover by the incoming team. , m.d.11-685 dictated by: medquist36 procedure: continuous invasive mechanical ventilation for 96 consecutive

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: history of present illness: mr. is a 67 year old man who was in his usual state of health until four to five months prior to admission when he began experiencing shortness of breath on exertion and at rest, which he attributed to his asthma. the patient's symptoms worsened, causing him to see his primary care physician , who sent him to the hospital. the patient was found to have a non-q wave myocardial infarction with a troponin of 8.5 and to be in rapid atrial flutter / atrial fibrillation. he was treated with lovenox and lopressor in the emergency department. cardiac catheterization was performed on , which revealed total occlusion of the left anterior descending and 90% stenosis of the right coronary artery. his ejection fraction was estimated at 20%. the patient was rate controlled and diuresed and then transferred to the for cardiothoracic surgery consultation and possible cardiac catheterization and stenting. upon arrival, the patient denied chest pain, pressure, nausea, vomiting, diaphoresis, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea. past medical history: 1. status post non-q wave myocardial infarction on . 2. status post atrial fibrillation. 3. asthma. 4. hypertension. 5. status post left knee replacement in . 6. status post colon cancer. 7. status post radiation therapy and chemotherapy with resection of colon times two in and . 8. status post surgery for basal cell carcinoma on the left ear. 9. status post ventral hernia repair in . allergies: 1. penicillin. 2. aspirin, shortness of breath, laryngeal swelling. family history: mother died at 85 from heart disease. social history: the patient is employed as a manager of a laundry plant in , . he lives with his wife in . he has a 50 pack year history of tobacco. he has not smoked tobacco for the past 25 years. he has occasional alcohol use. physical examination: on physical examination in general, a pleasant man in no apparent distress appearing his stated age. heent: pupils are equal, round and reactive to light. extraocular muscles are intact. normal buccal mucosa. normal dentition. mucous membranes were moist. chest with mild crackles at the left base; otherwise no wheezing or rhonchi. cardiovascular is regular rate and rhythm without murmurs, rubs or gallops. abdomen obese, soft, nontender, nondistended, without guarding, rebound or rigidity. extremities warm with mild bilateral leg edema symmetrically. no clubbing or cyanosis. no varicosities. palpable pulses. hospital course: the patient was initially referred to cardiac surgery, however, it was unclear how much of the infarcted area supplied by the left anterior descending was still viable. thus, a decision was made to take the patient to cardiac catheterization. the patient underwent repeat cardiac catheterization on . the patient underwent a limited coronary angiography to the right coronary artery as the left anterior descending had already been shown to be totally occluded. an right coronary artery focal 80% mid vessel lesion was noted. the patient underwent successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and stenting of the mid right coronary artery using a 3 by 8 millimeter cypher stent which was then post dilated using a 3.5 millimeter balloon. a good post procedure affect was noted. because the patient reported a severe allergy to aspirin, aspirin therapy was withheld. instead, the patient was started on an alternative anti-platelet , sulfinpyrazone. in addition, he was started on plavix 75 mg p.o. q. day. since the patient had a history of recent plavix use, he was not loaded with plavix prior to starting him on his daily 75 mg. two days after the procedure on , the patient suffered a witnessed ventricular fibrillation arrest on telemetry and was promptly defibrillated. ekg at that time showed a complete heart block with a ventricular escape rhythm. at this time, he was emergently transferred to the cardiac catheterization laboratory for evaluation and treatment. the patient's cardiac catheterization revealed that the right coronary artery stent that had been previously placed was totally occluded with thrombus just proximal to the mid vessel stent. an ibp was placed and the patient showed marked elevation of right and left heart filling pressures with a normal cardiac index. a successful rheolytic thrombectomy with percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of the right coronary artery was performed using the angioject catheter. the patient was then admitted to the coronary care unit for further care. an echocardiogram was obtained the following day which showed that the left ventricular wall size was normal but that the left ventricular systolic function was severely depressed with hypokinesis and akinesis of all visualized segments. the patient remained intubated after his ventricular fibrillation arrest and cardiac catheterization. the balloon pump was successfully weaned over the following days and the patient was extubated uneventfully. he was then seen by the electrophysiology service who recommended placement of an icd prior to discharge. the patient was then transferred to the floor status post icd placement. because of the patient's history of atrial fibrillation and his history of severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction, he was started on heparin and coumadin with a plan to discharge him once he became therapeutic on coumadin. on the day after the initiation of heparin and coumadin therapy, the patient developed a hematoma at his cardiac pacemaker site. the heparin was thus discontinued and a repeat consultation with the electrophysiology service was obtained. a consensus decision was made to maintain the patient on coumadin 2.5 mg p.o. q. day as his hematoma at the pacemaker site resolved. the patient was seen by physical therapy who felt that he could perform activities of daily living. at the time of discharge, he was able to climb five flights of stairs and to walk around the hospital floor without shortness of breath or difficulty. in addition, the patient was maintained on amiodarone after his episode of ventricular fibrillation arrest and he was started on aspirin after undergoing aspirin desensitization. his plavix dose was also increased from 75 mg to 150 mg p.o. q. day. aspirin desensitization was uneventful. condition on discharge: stable. discharge status: to home. discharge diagnoses: 1. congestive heart failure, systolic and diastolic dysfunction. 2. acute myocardial infarction. 3. old myocardial infarction. 4. ventricular tachycardic arrhythmia. discharge medications: 1. plavix 150 mg p.o. q. day. 2. atorvastatin 10 mg p.o. q. day. 3. pantoprazole 40 mg p.o. q. day. 4. captopril 25 mg p.o. three times a day. 5.

male with cad s/p cabg and mechanical avr p/w syncope, found to have 1st degree heart block, in addition to left anterior fascicular block and rbbb. . # heart block: the diagnosis of ventricular fibrillation from the outside hospital was in doubt, given that no tele strips or ekg's were produced which detected ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation. given this information, and the fact that his ekg continued to show first degree heart block, left anterior fascicular block, and right bundle branch block, it was thought that the patient's episode at the outside hospital was secondary to syncope from bradycardia. in addition, cardiac catheterization showed diffuse three vessel disease but active lesions which may have precipitated an ischemic event. therefore, it was decided not to implant an icd. the patient was kept on a temporary pacer for the first several days of admission. the patient's native heart rate eventually outpaced the pacer, at a rate ranging in the 50's, and his temporary pacer was removed. he remained with a heart rate in the 50's over the next several days. he was asymptomatic at rest. however, he continued to have heart rates as low as the 20's and 30's, and was developing frequent second pauses while being monitored on telemetry. therefore, a dual chamber pacemaker at setting ddd was placed on . on , he began having runs of atrial tachycardia in the 120-130's, secondary to atrial sensed ventricular pacing. his pacemaker setting was therefore changed to ddi, and he did not experience further tachycardia. the pacemaker implantation was without complications. he was continued on iv heparin and transitioned to po coumadin. his goal inr is 2.5 to 3.5. he has follow-up with device clinic and dr. as per discharge

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: history of present illness: mr. is a pleasant 78-year- old gentleman who was previously seen on byros service and discharged on . he had previously undergone evacuation for right acute subdural hemorrhage. during his prior admission, he had a traumatic foley placed and subsequently had copious excretion of blood from his catheter. he required placement of a three-way catheter with continuous irrigation for several days. ultimately, he was discontinued to rehabilitation with a regular foley. on , he was brought to the emergency room from his rehabilitation facility with increasing hematuria. he had previously been doing well. per report, the nurse the foley due to minimal urine output and had been noticing an increasing amount of clots being excreted. he had a creatinine of 4.5 at rehabilitation. ultimately, he was sent to the for further evaluation and management of acute renal failure with hematuria. when he was seen at , he complained of pain in his penis, as well as secondary to foley placement. he denies any nausea, vomiting, chest pain, palpitations or shortness of breath. he otherwise denied complaint of any new issues. past medical history: chronic right subdural hematoma, status post right parietal bur hole evacuation. he was noted to have a left subdural collection, which was not evacuated on his prior admission. coronary artery disease. congestive heart failure with an ejection fraction of 50 percent. diabetes mellitus. hypercholesterolemia. right rotator cuff injury. cerebrovascular accident. chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. benign prostatic hypertrophy. hematuria. medications: 1. folic acid 1 mg p.o. once daily. 2. percocet. 3. ____________ p.o. b.i.d. 4. lopressor 325 mg p.o. b.i.d. 5. sliding scale insulin. 6. subcutaneous heparin. 7. dilantin 100 mg p.o. b.i.d. physical examination: he is afebrile with a temperature of 98.7, blood pressure 115/55, heart rate 77, respiratory rate 18, saturation of 96 percent on room air. he appeared awake, oriented and well. he had equal pupils and full extraocular movements. his face was symmetric and his tongue was midline. cranial nerves ii-xii are grossly intact. he had bilateral rhonchi, right greater than left, and slight crackles at the right lower base. otherwise, his heart rate was regular. he had a normal pulse. his abdomen was soft and nontender to palpation. he had slight pitting edema of his bilateral lower extremities below the knees. hospital course: he was admitted to the medicine service initially for management of his acute renal failure. he was believed to have acute renal failure secondary to obstruction given his decreased urine output from the foley. ultrasound showed no hydronephrosis. his foley was replaced and he was ultimately switched to continuous irrigation. during his course in the hospital, he was seen by neurology and followed. the repeat head ct showed slight progression of the left subdural. ultimately, he was taken to the operating room for drainage of the left subdural. upon admission, his aspirin was discontinued. on , the neurosurgery service was involved for assessment of his increasing left subdural collection. he was alert and oriented with fluent speech. he did not complain of any worsening weakness compared to his prior baseline but did have four to four plus weakness throughout bilateral extremities. his speech and language function remained intact. during his course in the hospital, his hematocrit stayed stable in the range of 20-30. on , he was taken to the operating room for drainage of his left subdural hemorrhage. he underwent two bur hole drainage and placement of subdural catheter. he tolerated the procedure well with no complications. please see operative note for further details. he spent the night in the recovery area and did well. subsequently, he was slowly elevated from his bed and ultimately, the drain was removed. postoperative ct scans showed a stable appearance of his fluid collection and likely some cerebrospinal fluid accumulation in the cavity. he was seen by physical therapy and continued to do well. he continued to have some hematuria and was seen by urology. ultimately, urology recommended continuous irrigation until he cleared for 24 hours and then switching the three-way catheter to a foley. however, his hematuria persisted for several days. ultimately, urology took him for cystoscopy. on , he underwent cystoscopy showing some bladder stones and a small laceration that has scarred over. he underwent lithiasis and currently is doing well. he currently has a foley in place. he should continue on ciprofloxacin 500 mg p.o. b.i.d. for four days. the foley should remain in until he is fully ambulatory and then can be removed. urology would like to hold the antiplatelet medications for ten days. however, neurosurgery would prefer to hold it for 14 days until follow- up with dr. and a repeat head ct. discharge medications: 1. folic acid 1 mg p.o. once daily. 2. _______ 150 mg p.o. once daily. 3. nystatin oral suspension 5 mg p.o. once daily p.r.n. 4. zolpidem tartrate 5 mg p.o. q h.s. p.r.n. 5. colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d.

csf - vzv, vdrl, hsv, hsv, ms profile, cmv, ebv, hhv6. these all returned negative other than the csf vdrl, which is pending on discharge. she had a head mri which revealed periventricular white matter lesions, nonenhancing. her symptoms and imaging were thought to be consistent with demyelinating myelitis, perhaps an aggressive form of transverse myelitis or neuromyelitis optica. due to her acute and aggressive presentation, she was started on plasmapheresis on with 5 treatments total. after 2 treatments, she was found to have an elevated ptt and a slowly dropping hematocrit. the ptt fell with discontinuation of subcutaneous heparin alone. however, the hematocrit fell more rapidly and she became hypotensive with sbp in the 80s. evaluation revealed a left gluteal hematoma. she was transferred to the icu. there, she was transfused two units of prbcs with improvement of her hematocrit. further plasmapheresis was held. she was stabilized in the icu and remained stable on the floor. she had a repeat t-spine mri, which was improved with decreased extent of signal abnormality and decreased cord expansion, as well as resolution of previously seen enhancement. she did have a new small syrinx visualized. clinically, she had improved minimally in leg movement, as well as urinary and bowel control. she will go to rehab to improve her strength, and follow up for further treatment in neurology clinic. she will taper down the prednisone as directed to eventual dose of 60mg every other day. medications on admission: - asa - lisinopril - simvastatin discharge medications: 1. prednisone 20 mg tablet sig: asdir tablet po asdir: 60mg daily alternating w/ 40mg daily x4 days then 60mg daily alternating w/ 20mg daily x4 days then 60mg daily alternating w/ 10mg daily x4 days then 60mg every other day. 2. calcium carbonate 500 mg tablet, chewable sig: one (1) tablet, chewable po bid (2 times a day). 3. cholecalciferol (vitamin d3) 400 unit tablet sig: one (1) tablet po daily (daily). 4. pantoprazole 40 mg tablet, delayed release (e.c.) sig: one (1) tablet, delayed release (e.c.) po q24h (every 24 hours). 5. docusate sodium 100 mg capsule sig: one (1) capsule po bid (2 times a day). 6. bisacodyl 5 mg tablet, delayed release (e.c.) sig: two (2) tablet, delayed release (e.c.) po bid (2 times a day). 7. senna 8.6 mg tablet sig: two (2) tablet po bid (2 times a day). 8. tizanidine 2 mg tablet sig: one (1) tablet po qhs (once a day (at bedtime)) as needed for muscle spasm. 9. gabapentin 100 mg capsule sig: one (1) capsule po tid (3 times a day). 10. simvastatin 10 mg tablet sig: two (2) tablet po daily (daily). discharge disposition: extended care facility: rehab unit at - discharge diagnosis: transverse myelitis heparin sensitivity anemia urinary tract infection constipation discharge condition: slightly improved - able to lift left leg just off bed, extend both legs at knees, flex the left leg, wiggle toes on the left, sense need to urinate. discharge instructions: take all medications as prescribed. prednisone should be tapered as follows: 60mg daily alternating w/ 40mg daily x4 days then 60mg daily alternating w/ 20mg daily x4 days then 60mg daily alternating w/ 10mg daily x4 days then 60mg every other day. follow up in dr. office as scheduled. call your doctor or return to the ed with any worsening weakness, sensation, urinary or bowel control, or with change in mental status, difficulty speaking, vision loss, or any other concerning symptom. followup instructions: follow up with dr. by calling for an appointment: (. call your pcp (, a. ) for a follow up appointment as well. procedure: venous catheterization, not elsewhere classified spinal tap incision of lung therapeutic plasmapheresis diagnoses: pure hypercholesterolemia urinary tract infection, site not specified unspecified essential hypertension iron deficiency anemia secondary to blood loss (chronic) hematoma complicating a procedure long-term (current) use of anticoagulants anticoagulants causing adverse effects in therapeutic use accidental fall from bed accidents occurring in residential institution other and unspecified coagulation defects diplopia contusion of buttock acute (transverse) myelitis nos Answer: The patient is high likely exposed to

adjacent to the liver parenchyma. the gallbladder is distended but not tense and no stones or sludge are seen within the gallbladder. these findings are not typical of acute cholecystitis, however, cannot be entirely excluded and clinical correlation is essential. if clinical suspicion remains, a hida scan or repeat ultrasound could be performed to document resolution of this pathology. ct abd impression: 1. bilateral pleural effusions and bibasilar consolidations. 2. one-centimeter obstructing stone in the right mid ureter with proximal ureteral dilatation and right hydronephrosis. 3. sludge in the gallbladder this could be further evaluated with ultrasound. echo conclusions: the left atrium is mildly elongated. left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size, and systolic function are normal (lvef>55%). regional left ventricular wall motion is normal. right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. the aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but not stenotic. no aortic regurgitation is seen. the mitral valve leaflets are structurally normal. mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. there is mild pulmonary artery systolic hypertension. there is a very small circumferential pericardial effusion. impression: mild mitral regurgitation with normal valve morphology. mild aortic sclerosis. preserved global and regional biventricular systolic function. prominent bilateral pleural effusions. very small circumferential pericardial effusion. if clinically suggested, the absence of a vegetation does not exclude the diagnosis of endocarditis. conclusions: the left atrium is normal in size. no spontaneous echo contrast or thrombus is seen in the body of the left atrium/left atrial appendage or the body of the right atrium/right atrial appendage. no atrial septal defect is seen by 2d or color doppler. left ventricular wall thickness, cavity size, and systolic function are normal (lvef>55%). right ventricular chamber size and free wall motion are normal. the ascending, transverse and descending thoracic aorta are normal in diameter and free of atherosclerotic plaque. the aortic valve leaflets (3) appear structurally normal with good leaflet excursion and no aortic regurgitation. no masses or vegetations are seen on the aortic valve. the mitral valve leaflets are structurally normal. no mass or vegetation is seen on the mitral valve. no mitral regurgitation is seen. there is a trivial pericardial effusion. impression: normal biventricular systolic function. no evidence of endocarditis. ct head impression: 1. no intracranial hemorrhage, evidence of stroke, or mass effect. 2. mild mucosal thickening of the ethmoid and mastoid sinuses. rue u/s impression: no right upper extremity dvt. ct abd mpression: 1) multiple areas of low attenuation in the spleen likely representing multiple splenic infarctions. 2) nephrostomy tube in place in the right kidney. moderate sized bilateral pleural effusions and basilar atelectasis. brief hospital course: 62 yo female w/ pmhx of htn, glaucoma admitted to micu for urosepsis. brief hospital course by problem: 1) urosepsis/id: pt transfered to from osh with urosepsis complicated by hypotension, respiratory distress and vt s/p code. pt found to have right hydronephrosis/pyelonephrosis with stalhorn stone; s/p nephrostomy tube placement. initially started on ceftriaxone/amp/gent. aggressive fluid hydration and pressors (levo, vaso and dobuta) to maintain map >65. abx narrowed to vanc/flagy/ctx and then onto ctx and flagyl. bcx and ucx - pan-sensitive e.coli. briefly maintained with stress steroids. pressors quickly weaned to off over next few days as blood pressors recovered. in response to contiued fevers, abd ct obtained showing splenic infartcs. follow up tee was negative for any signs of endocarditis. blood culture from grew out mrsa for which pt was restarted on vancomycin. c diff negative but since pt improved on flagyl it was continued for a 7 day course regardless. upon transfer to medical service was continued on ceftriaxone for e.coli-uti and flagyl(completed 7 day course) and vancomycin for mrsa-bcx. ceftriaxone subsequently changed to levofloxacin 500 mg qd (). total goal of treatment being 14 day for urosepsis and 14 day total course of vanco for mrsa (started ). pt is to follow up with urology, appt made for with dr. , after completion of abx to discuss management of renal stone and status of nephrostomy tube. 2) respiratory failure: ? ards secondary to urosepsis, but more likely distress overwhelming met acidosis. pt intubated upon admission and tolerated vent well. hd#2 trial of psv. return to ac since pt became somewhat unstable cardiac wise (see below). , began to wean off psv as tolerated and extubated succesfully on . pt did well, requiring minimal o2 via nc initially and then tolerated room air. 3) cvs: tachy-brady syndrome/nstemi. cardiology consulted on for tachy/brady syndrome with junctional escapes as well as nstemi. pt with peak trop of 0.23, most likely demand ischemia in response to hypotension. cardiology recommended low dose beta blocker and asa when clinically able. as per tachy-brady syndrome, cardiology thought it to be best to delay therapeutic decisions until stable, to see if condition continues. if so they believed that she would be a good candidate for eps with svt ablation +/- pacer if pt did not recover after urosepsis resolved. once tolerable, pt started on metoprolol, asa and lisinopril. during the remaining stay, pt without evidence of continued ischemia or tachy-brady syndrome. pt should have stress-mibi as an outpateint to better evaluate cardiac function. being d/c on both a beta-blocker and acei. 4) gu: pt with one-centimeter obstructing stone in the right mid ureter with proximal ureteral dilatation and right hydronephrosis, requiring nephrostomy tube placed by ir. at time of discharge, nephrostomy tube draining well without problems. pt is to follow up with urology, dr , for nephrostomy tube managment as well as decision regarding surgical or lithotripsy for renal stone treatment. 5) dispo: pt recovered quite well, and was to be discharged with iv vancomycin via picc and nephrostomy tube in place. pt felt weak and per pt, it was felt appropriate for pt to have a short term rehab stay upon discharge. pt is to follow up with pcp and urology upon discharge. she might also have to follow up with intervential radiology regarding nephrostomy tube, but that decision will be made after seeing an urologist. medications

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: allergies: patient recorded as having no known allergies to drugs attending: chief complaint: elective admission for mass resection major surgical or invasive procedure: : right craniotomy for mass resection history of present illness: patient is a 72m known to the neurosurgery service for prior hospitalization for avm hemorrhage. at that time, incidental mass was identified, and he now presents electively for resection of said mass. past medical history: ivh/avm bleed h/o lt temporal avm, htn, depression , bph, uti, seizure, bladder stone s/p vp shunt, cyberknife (avm ), cysts removal from skin, lithotripsy, extra-ventricular drain social history: resides at home with wife family history: non-contributory physical exam: on discharge: the patient is oriented x 3. his

sagittal and axial and flair t2 susceptibility and diffusion axial images of the brain were acquired before gadolinium. t1 axial and mp- rage sagittal images were obtained following gadolinium. 3d time-of-flight mra of the circle of obtained. gadolinium-enhanced mra of the neck and fat-suppressed axial images of the neck were acquired. findings: brain mri: comparison was made with the previous mri of . since the previous study, the patient has undergone resection of a large meningioma in the right frontal region. extensive right-sided brain edema is again identified. there are blood products at the surgical site. although no residual nodular enhancement is seen, there is enhancement seen along the sulci and meningeal enhancement identified in the region. these findings indicate both pachy and leptomeningeal enhancement. mild slow diffusion in the surrounding area on diffusion images is indicative of postoperative change. there is blood in the left lateral ventricle. there is persistent mass effect on the right lateral ventricle. changes of small vessel disease are seen. a left frontal drainage catheter is identified. note is made of new areas of slow diffusion in the right medial thalamus. these findings are indicative of acute infarcts which are new since the previous study. again noted is enhancing meningioma in the tuberculum sella region. additionally, enhancement and flow void in the left medial temporal lobe region indicative of an aneurysm at the site of previously noted arteriovenous malformation. post-craniectomy changes are seen in the right frontal region. pneumocephalus identified. impression: previous mri examination, the patient has undergone resection of a large frontal meningioma with blood products at the surgical site without residual nodular enhancement. leptomeningeal and pachymeningeal enhancement is seen which appears postoperative. acute right-sided thalamic infarcts are seen which are new since the previous study. other findings are stable as described above. mra of the neck: the neck mra demonstrates normal flow in the carotid and vertebral arteries. the fat-suppressed images demonstrate subtle increased soft tissues adjacent to the proximal right common carotid artery as seen on the cta. this could be related to small amount of blood in the surrounding soft tissues from recent attempted central venous line placement. there is no definite dissection seen. impression: normal mra of the neck. mra of the head: the head mra demonstrates no evidence of vascular occlusion or stenosis. the previously seen aneurysm in relation with the left posterior cerebral artery is not apparent on the mra. the left medial temporal lobe arteriovenous malformation is also not clearly visualized. impression: no vascular occlusion or stenosis seen on the mra of the head. postoperative changes are noted following removal of frontal lobe tumor. acute right thalamic infarcts are identified. mra of the neck is normal without dissection. mra of the head demonstrates no stenosis or occlusion. brief hospital course: patient was electively admitted on to undergo resection of his brain mass. post-operatively, he was transferred to the icu for continuous monitoring. during his perioperative course, central line placement was complicated by access to the carotid artery. post-op, vascular surgery was consulted, duplex studies performed, and determined to be without injury to the carotid artery. mri/a was also done to further confirm this as well as evaluate surgical resection. the vascular surgery team agreed that there was no carotid artery dissection and no intervention needed on their part. the patient was extubated in the icu and was then transferred to the floor. he did well over the weekend. the patient was able to eat without difficulty. pt and ot evaluated him and recommended rehab placement. on the patient was noted to have bloody urine in the foley. a urinalysis revealed a uti. he was

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: history of present illness: this is a 78 year old male who fell down 13 steps and was found unconscious on a cement landing with a pool of blood beneath his head. he had coma scale when the paramedics found him and he was intubated in the field and transferred to hospital where by verbal report he was reintubated secondary to concern of esophageal intubation. at that time he was given vecuronium succinylcholine and etomidate. his vital signs remained stable throughout. he had multiple transports at that stage and it was decided to transfer him to emergency room where he was received as a trauma plus. past medical history: significant for parkinson's, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension and status post left lens implant one week prior to admission. past surgical history: none. allergies: no known drug allergies. physical examination: on examination he was 96.2 for temperature, heart rate 89, blood pressure 166/palpable and saturations of 100% on 100% fio2. on examination, pupils were both fixed and dilated. he had a laceration on his right scalp which was stapled shut beneath the laceration with a depressed skull fracture. his heart was regular rate and rhythm. his lungs were clear bilaterally. he had no crepitus and no instability of the chest wall. his abdomen was soft, nondistended. his pelvis was stable. his back had no stepoffs. he did have an abrasion of his left sacrum. his rectal examination was guaiac negative with decreased tone secondary to paralysis. his right upper extremity had a 2 cm right posterior forearm laceration without bony deformity. the rest of his extremities were without deformity as well. both feet were warm. he has coma scale of 3t and had recently been paralyzed and sedated in the trauma bay. he had a chest x-ray which showed mediastinal air and a pelvis film which was negative for fracture. hospital course: he was then taken to the computerized tomography scanner where he underwent a head cervical spine, chest and abdominal computerized tomography scans. the head computerized tomography scan showed a large left subdural hemorrhage with midline shift as well as a left interparenchymal bleed and clear ungual herniation. the computerized tomography scan of his neck was read as normal. computerized tomography scan of his chest showed a small right pneumothorax and air in his mediastinal. the computerized tomography scan of the abdomen and pelvis was negative. neurosurgery was called to consult and dr. , after reviewing the films discussed with the family the poor prognosis and likely unsurvivability of his injury. the family was clear in that the patient did not want aggressive resuscitation. he was made do-not-resuscitate until the family was able to arrive at the hospital at which point the wide open fluids were stopped and the ventilator was turned off. it was determined prior to the families arrival that a right chest tube was not something the patient would have wanted. it should be noted that in the trauma bay the patient received mannitol as well as ceftriaxone and vancomycin for his open skull fracture. the patient passed away at 5:19 am on . his chief cause of death was respiratory failure and the immediate cause was subdural hematoma. the family was notified and the medical examiner was notified. the medical examiner chose to accept the case. , m.d. dictated by: medquist36 procedure: continuous invasive mechanical ventilation for less than 96 consecutive hours insertion of endotracheal tube diagnoses: pure hypercholesterolemia unspecified essential hypertension paralysis agitans accidental fall on or from other stairs or steps traumatic pneumothorax without mention of open wound into thorax open fracture of vault of skull with subarachnoid, subdural, and extradural hemorrhage, with prolonged [more than 24 hours] loss of consciousness, without return to pre-existing conscious level Answer: The patient is high likely exposed to

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: allergies: no known allergies / adverse drug reactions attending: chief complaint: bleeding per rectum major surgical or invasive procedure: 1.colonoscopy 2.right femoral line placement/removal history of present illness: ms. is a pleasant 79 year-old female with severe pvd (s/p right bka in and left great toe amputation), hemorrhoids, complicated diabetes mellitus, htn, hyperlipidemia, diabetic related nephropathy and neuropathy and pulmonary emboli diagnosed in () who had been on combination of asa/plavix/coumadin when she presented on this admission complaining of bright red blood per rectum for 1.5 weeks before transfer for evaluation. on arrival to ed, outside facility reported that patient's last inr was 7.1 a week before and coumadin was held temporarily. per the patient, she had bright red blood with bowel movements for a little over a week that the nursing home staff were monitoring. she notes her bm's have most recently been diarrhea which she attributes to stool softeners at the nh and reportedly just finished a course of flagyl in recent weeks for suspected c.difficile. she had 5-10 episodes of brbpr the past week that were painless, definitely bright red without melena, mixed in with the stool (not necessarily streaked), and there was blood on the toilet paper as well. no episodes of dizziness, chest pains, dyspnea, presyncope, weakness, blood loss anywhere else. of note, had a negative screening colonoscopy in here at . . on she was brought into the ed, initial vs: f, hr 72 bp 118/49, rr 16 and 100%ra. labs significant for hct 25.3, inr 2.7, and normal plts. gi was consulted in the ed. k was also 6.2 so she was given ca gluconate, insulin/d50. she had brb on rectal exam and ng lavage was negative. access was an issue and she was unable to get secure peripherals, so after failed bilateral central line (ij) attempts, she got a triple lumen in her right femoral region, then got 1l ns ivfs, 1u prbc's, 2u ffp, and vitamin k. . ros was negative for any associated abdominal pains, nausea, emesis, vision changes, heent problems, headaches, poor po intake, dysphagia, odynophagia, sob, cough, palpitations, dysuria or problems with urination, skin changes. vitals before transfer to the icu were hr 75, bp 148/60, rr 20 and o2 sat 100%ra. she has very stable blood pressures despite gib and her hct was also stable in the 24-25 ranges in the icu so she was sent to the general medical floor on where was followed until time of discharge with a fairly unremarkable course. the gi consult service followed patient closely and she had colonoscopy performed on with notable avms in lower gi tract/sigmoid area that were treated with argon coagulation. . past medical history: - peripheral arterial disease: s/p r bka

history: patient was a music teacher and was living in the same apartment for 22 years. from and has limited family in the area. she had been quite independent before her leg amputation and has been living in rehabilitation facilities/nursing homes for the past 6 months after r bka and toe amputation, most recently at lights. distant history of tobacco use for 4 yrs, quit 20yrs ago, rare alcohol use. no ivdu. family history: father died at 76yo from mi, mother died at yo, sister and maternal grandfather with dm. physical exam: temp 97, hr 81, bp 137/79, rr15-16, 100%ra . pleasant, well

diagnostic interim change. . colonscopy report: findings: contents: poor prep was noted throughout the whole colon, however there were no obvious massess visualized. significant amount of stool was found in the right colon limiting the view. mucosa: abnormal vascularity typical of avms with spontaneous bleeding. there were associated pale/white mucosal plaques also noted in the rectum, and distal sigmoid colon. they were not able to be washed off. cold forceps biopsies were performed for histology. other procedures: an argon-plasma coagulator was applied for hemostasis successfully in the rectum and distal sigmoid colon. cold forceps biopsies were performed for histology of the white musosal lesions at the distal sigmoid colon. impression: abnormal vascularity in the rectum, and distal sigmoid colon (biopsy) stool in the whole colon (thermal therapy, biopsy) otherwise normal colonoscopy to cecum . ***gi biopsies : pending . labs at discharge : 06:40am blood wbc-7.5 rbc-2.85*

79 year old female with h/o pvd s/p r bka in and l toe amp; htn/hl/dm with nephropathy and neuropathy; pe in and currently on asa/plavix/coumadin, and h/o hemorrhoid surgery who presents with blood per rectum x1 week. 1. gib: given history of bright red blood and negative ng lavage, mostly suspected lower gib. given h/o hemorrhoidal surgery and hct being fairly within her baseline, this seems high the differential. however, other common causes of lgib were considered such as diverticular bleed and avm's. given normal colonoscopy in , lower suspicion for malignancy. lack of pain, fevers, wbc count makes infectious vs ischemic colitis less likely. she had very stable hcts in the 24-25 range and only required one unit of blood on entire admission as no excessive bleeding noted. she never had any concerning hypotension or tachycardia which was also reassuring. gi scoped the patient on hospital day 3 after preparation with moviprep overnight. reports revealed abnormal vascularity typical of avms with spontaneous bleeding. there were associated pale/white mucosal plaques also noted in the rectum, and distal sigmoid colon. biopsies were performed for histology. biopsies are pending now. an argon-plasma coagulator was applied for hemostasis successfully in the rectum and distal sigmoid colon. bleeding was blamed on lgi avms that were noted. she had all of her anti-htn medications held and her aspirin, plavix and coumadin all held for 3 days. team opted to hold her usual home plavix at time of discharge and she will discuss restart with her new pcp and her vascular surgeon at upcoming appointment in a few weeks. she will plan to still continue her coumadin for her known pe and her asa 81mg daily with close monitoring of her coags/inr at her facility. she was tolerating a regular (diabetic/cardiac healthy) diet at time of discharge. recheck hct level tomorrow and on monday with additional labs. . 2. pulmonary emboli: patient explained she had shortness of breath complaints when she was living at center in and was sent to hospital for evaluation and was then diagnosed with a pulmonary emboli and placed on coumadin. during this hospitalization she was saturating well on ra, no tachycardia, no respiratory distress. supratherapeutic inr just prior to admission in the 7 range and she needed 2 units ffp and vitamin k in ed and inr settled down to 2 range and drifted to 1.5 range for colonoscopy to be done safely and then she was restarted on 5mg daily coumadin prior to discharge with plans for close inr follow-ups at lights to be followed by over the coming weeks with possible transition to anticoagulation management through pcp if patient prefers this option in the near future. specific dates outlined for lab draws and enclosed in nursing instruction page. . . 3. diabetes: well controlled during hospital course. patient had glargine decreased to 6 units while npo and then placed back on usual 8 units qhs along with a humalog sliding scale. . 4. hypertension: well controlled and even off of her anti-htn medications her sbps ranged in the 120-140s ranges. she had her amlodipine discontinued at time of discharge but can plan to continue her usual dose of valsartan, metoprolol and her low dose 20mg lasix daily. please have dose held if her blood pressures fall below 100 systolic. . 5. peripheral vascular disease: severe disease and known hyperlipidemia, smoking history. she underwent a right bka in followed by a left great toe amputation 6/. she will continue her 20mg daily simvastatin, 81mg aspirin and plans to restart her plavix at a later date once her gi bleeding has been stable for several weeks. patient was set up for outpatient vascular follow-up appointment with dr. on . . 6. hyperkalemia: this was felt to be from worse renal dysfunction and medication effects may have also played a role. she may need some dose adjustments in her valsartan medication as an outpatient as this medication can increase k. she no longer takes lisinopril which was recently discontinued. at time of discharge, her k was back in the 4 range with plans for recheck at lights within a few days of discharge on lab

was noted to have slurred speech, l facial droop, and left hemiparesis. he was intubated, got mannitol, and was taken to the or emergently where he had a right craniectomy on . subdural drain was removed, patient extubated, and dilantin held for level of 21.9 on . he was noted to be febrile to 102 with + mrsa screen, at which time a fever work up started. a sling was applied to lue due to clavicle fracture. on he was reintubated with question of aspiration. trach was placed on , however no peg was placed due to previous gastrectomy. he continued to improve, and was transferred to step down, where physical and occupational therapy are working with him. on he was scheduled to have a swallowing evaluation but was unable to have this due to significant secretions. on his trach site was evaluated by the surgery attending who felt that it was too early too downsize due to edema at the site. the patient was briskly following commands with the right but had no movement on the left. the patient was more alert and able to follow commands so it was determined safe to remove his cervical collar when he had no point tenderness on . the following day the trach was downsized. on the patient pulled out his trach and that was then replaced by the surgery team. he was saturating well and had no respirator distress. on a repeat swallow evaluation was unsuccessful. he failed the video swallow and was to continue to be npo. j tube was therefore placed in the operating suite without complications. pt remains stable and cleared for rehabilitative transfer. medications on admission:

"large left mca territory infarction with ischemia involving the entire left mca territory and abrupt occlusion at the distal left m1 segment. the appearance on the perfusion map with increased mtt and reduced blood volume suggest irreversible injury. no hemorrhage." . at , he underwent clot retrieval by merci followed by 2 mg of ia tpa to each m2 branch. all m1 and m2 vessels were opened successfully. he was started on asa 325 mg daily. he was also maintained on heparin 5000 units tid for anticoagulation and bridged to coumadin 5 mg daily. . his last ct scan on showed the presence of a large volume mca stroke with hemorrhagic conversion as well as intraventricular hemorrhage. the ct on did not show any signs of local vasogenic edema concerning enough to start on osmotic therapy. . his persistent neurological symptoms include significant right hemiparesis, difficulty following commands, right sided hyper-reflexia, and weak withdrawal to noxious stimuli on the right side. . *)pulmonary: upon presentation, mr. was emergently intubated for airway protection. he subsequently required a tracheostomy because of an inability tolerate secretions and impaired swallow/gag function. during his icu stay, he developed intermittent fevers and leukocytosis. cxr revealed right pleural effusions and lower lobe opacity consistent with aspiration pneumonia. as patient was transferred from icu to general floor, he was placed on a vap antibiotic bundle (vancomycin, tobramycin, cefepime) which helped reduce his fevers and leukocytosis and resulted in clearing of the cxr over the course of 3 days. at that time, an attempt at placing a pmv failed because of significant secretions. the recommendation was to forgo the placement of pmv until patient was further stabilized. . *)cardio: upon admission, blood pressure medications were withheld to allow for autoregulation. a cardiac enzyme assay returned negative. during the first two to three days of icu stay, he developed a rapid ventricular rate required a bolus of amiodarone over the course of 24 hours. he was subsequently stabilized with regiment of metoprolol and diltiazem which have been carefully titrated to 37.5 mg tid and 90 mg qid respectively. his rhythm remains irregularly irregular. . *)infectious disease: mr. was started on treatment for presumed ventilator associated pneumonia. he continued to have low fevers during the first days of treatment, however all cultures, including blood, urine, and sputum/bal were negative. cdiff was also tested and was negative. he was initially on vancomycin, tobramycin, and cefepime per vap protocol but was then taken off the tobra given the negative cultures. however, due to the continued fevers, we decided to treat for a total 10 day course with vancomycin and cefepime which will be completed on . . *)endo: diabetes medications were held and patient was placed on insulin sliding scale for better control of blood sugars per stroke protocol. his hgba1c taken at admission returned a value of 8.3%. his blood sugar control has been complicated during this hospital admission with blood glucose values ranging from 150-300. he was restarted on his metformin, and was also continued on insulin. . all his lipid modifying agents were held out of concern for worsening hemorrhagic process. additionally, his ldl with a value of 41 is at goal. . *) abdomen: patient suffered a pneumoperitoneum, thought to be secondary to placement of peg tube. it was noticed on daily cxrs obtained in the icu. the patient did not suffer from belly tenderness of peritoneal signs following the noticed pneumoperitoneum, and it has since resolved on repeat x-rays. . *) transitional care issues: mr. suffered a severe stroke to his left brain and his course has been complicated. he has been stabilized and begun to show improvement. however, he remains paralyzed on the right side and has difficulty following commands. his requires comprehensive care outside of the hospital. of note, he developed aspiration pneumonia while in the hospital, requiring his placement on an antibiotic regiment. this regimen must be completed outside of the hospital, and a close watch on his infectious disease status must be maintained. mr. will also benefit from appropriate physical therapy to help him regain function where possible. on day of discharge, his inr was 2.0 on the aspirin bridge to coumadin. we have continued him on both aspirin and coumadin and his inr will need to be rechecked, the aspirin can be discontinued once his inr is stable between . medications on admission: -

Medical Report: allergies: haldol / fluphenazine / chlorpromazine / clozapine / risperidone / zyprexa / reglan / promethazine / flagyl / trileptal / clindamycin / cefazolin / erythromycin base / amoxicillin attending: chief complaint: abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea major surgical or invasive procedure: intubation/sedation to allow medical care early in hospital course history of present illness: ms. is a 24 year-old woman with recent diagnosis of sle vs possible crohn's on steroid taper and pervasive development disorder (resides in a group home) who presents with worsening abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. she was noted to be vomiting starting last night. she has been having diarrhea, no brbpr or melena. the mother feels that she is in pain as she brings her knees up to her chest. she was doing very well since until 2 weeks ago when she developed nausea/vomiting thought to be from plaquenil. this was changed to azathioprine a few days ago at 25mg. her prednisone was increased to 10mg. her symptoms began this weekend as above. howevever, her symptoms are different than in , given her emesis is clear and she is having watery diarrhea. per her mother, there is no reported fever/chills, cp/sop/ cough, or rash. she also denies recent sick contacts. she was seen at health alliance this morning at 3 am. ct showed no obstruction but diffuse colitis. pt received zofran, reglan (with benadryl), and hydrocortisone 100mg prior to transfer. in the ed, initial vs were: 98 106 122/90 14 99%. exam was notable for soft abdomen, guaiac negative. labs were notable for wbc 8.5. esr, crp pending. gi was consulted. currently she is doing well with no clear abdominal pain. past medical history: - sle vs crohns disease, followed by dr. and dr. . admitted for colitis/sbo. improved on steroids. imuran also started. - pervasive developmental disorder - ocd - bipolar disorder - question of seizure disorder social history: she is single, lives in a group home in , with visitations from the family on weekends. she does not smoke, does not drink. family history: there is a family history of colitis, crohn's, adhd, tourette's and asperger's in the family. physical exam: vs: t 98.2, bp 104/75, hr 111, rr 16, 100%ra gen: well appearing, smiling, nad heent: anicteric sclera, mmm, op clear neck: supple no lad heart: tachy, regular, no m/r/g lung: ctab

+mssa, +ecoli blood cx : +coagulase negative staph aureus urine cx : +ecoli ct abd & pelvis with contrast : 1. diffuse colitis, infectious, inflammatory, or vasculitis etiologies should be considered. there is associated abdominal ascites, and small bowel dilatation. 2. small bowel acute on chronic inflammatory change with dilated loops and wall edema. favor inflammatory vs. vasculitis, though findings are not specific for either. no small bowel transition point is seen to suggest a mechanical bowel obstruction, and any component of partial obstruction is likely to be functional as the result of inflammation. 3. no ct signs of vasculitis of the abdominal vessels and no arterial or venous occlusion. 4. small right pleural effusion. sigmoidoscopy : - moderately severe colitis with likely pseudomembrane in the sigmoid and descending colon (biopsy, biopsy) - loss of vascularity in the rectum - internal hemorrhoids - otherwise normal sigmoidoscopy to splenic flexure recs: await pathology report. likely c.diff colitis, but cannot rule-out crohn's disease based on endoscopic appearance alone. send stool studies for c.diff toxin/pcr, and would initiate empiric therapy for c.diff colitis with po/pr vancomycin. would recommend against increasing steroid therapy for now given the concern and high likelihood for c.diff colitis, unless histologic evaluation appears otherwise. sigmoid and descending colon biopsies: - colonic mucosa with abundant surface mucin (highlighted by mucicarmine stain). - no pseudomembranes, vasculitis, or cryptitis seen (additional levels were examined). portable abdomen : unchanged prominent loops of small bowel with some contrast seen in the ascending as well as descending colon likely representing essentially unchanged partial small bowel obstruction brief hospital course: 24 year-old woman with sle, pervasive developmental disorder, who presented with nausea and vomiting feculant material recurrent ileus vs. partial sbo associated with a probable vasculitis-induced colitis. management is complicated by behavioral issues (pulling out all lines), requiring sedation and intubation to enable medical management. decompression with -gastric tube was performed. ct demonstrated bowel wall thickening suggestive of colitis. c.diff toxin and c.diff pcr were negative. given patient's h/o lupus, there was concern for a possible vasculitic process. patient was started on a course 1000 mg methylprednisolone x3d followed by a taper. of note, azathioprine, which she had been on for lupus treatment, was transiently held. flex was performed to determine the etiology of colitis. biopsies were non-dagnostic and did not demonstrate signs of vasculitis, cryptitis or psuedomembranes. nonetheless, it was the opinion of the rheumatology consult service that this likely represent vasculitis-associated colitis and her symptoms improved with ongoing prednisone and restarted azathioprine use. the patient will continue on 30mg daily of prednisone and 75mg daily of azathioprine with calcium, vitamin d, atovaquone prophylaxis with weekly blood draws for azathioprine toxicity monitoring. she will follow-up with rheumatology in approximately 1 week. symptomatically the patient had significant improvement with apparent improvement in abdominal pain and distention. he hospital course was complicated by pneumonia, with sputum growing out gi flora consistent with aspiration pna, as well as uti with ecoli. she was treated with meropenem for 8 days (). treatment with vancomycin was planned for 14 days (), but the patient pulled out her iv access and was converted to po linezolid. the patient will reufse po meds sometimes, so because of clinical stability and difficulty with administering iv or po meds, treatment for coag-neg staph was stopped at 12 days (stopped ). ms. was followed by psychiatry during her admission for behavioral issues and developmental disorder. in addition to her klonopin she received prn valium. on , she was noted to have increased agitation and stated she had abdominal pain. she was also unable to void. foley catheter was placed which found the bladder to be retaining 900cc urine. she was given a voiding trial on and failed, so foley catheter was replaced. subsequently the patient pulled her foley catheter and repeat post-void residual measurement revealed <100cc residual on multiple repeat measurements. it appears that the patient's urinary retention resolved. she has no signs of ongoing urinary difficulty. for recurrent abdominal complaints or changes in urinary patterns, this issue should be re-investigated. the patient had signs of a significant fungal infection of the perineum and intercrural region. attempts were made at treating this with antifungal powder however the patient intermittently refused this therapy and she did not show clinical response. she was therefore started on a 2 week course of oral fluconazole. she requires ongoing attempts at keeping the area clean and dry to allow adequate healing. medications on admission: azathioprine 25 mg daily clonazepam 0.5mg benadryl 25 mg daily prednisone 10 mg

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: history of present illness: this is a 62-year-old woman who presented as an outpatient with left flank pain and a 20-pound weight loss over a 5-month period. a ct scan at that time revealed a left renal mass with apparent tumor thrombus in the left renal vein. a subsequent magnetic resonance imaging scan confirmed this finding and also noted that this mass extended into the vena cava. a ct of the head and lungs, as well as a bone scan, did not demonstrate any obvious metastatic disease; however, there were several lung nodules which were not definitely excluded as representative of metastatic disease. after discussions with medical oncology and urology attending dr. , it was determined that the patient would undergo a left radical nephrectomy with excision of the tumor thrombus in the vena cava as well as a perirenal lymph node dissection. hospital course: the patient was admitted to the hospital on and underwent an uncomplicated preoperative embolization of the left renal artery in the interventional radiology suite. on , the patient went to the operating room and an uncomplicated left radical nephrectomy with a left renal vein tumor thrombectomy as well as a left periaortic lymph node dissection. the patient tolerated the procedure well and was transported to the postanesthesia care unit intubated, in stable condition. the patient's postoperative course was relatively uneventful with the exception of a transient elevation of her bilirubin thought to be secondary to a transfusion reaction from the 8 units of packed red blood cells that she received during the operative procedure. the pain service was consulted to manage postoperative pain. her medical oncologist, dr. , was contact and a fellow from medical oncology met with the patient to set up follow-up appointments as an outpatient. by postoperative day four her bowel function had returned, her diet was advanced, and she was tolerating a regular diet by the day of discharge. her pain was well controlled, and she was ambulating independently. her bilirubin continued to normalize, reaching a level of 2.7 from a high of 7.5 on the day of discharge. her alkaline phosphatase, however, was slightly increased; again, thought to be secondary to transfusion reaction. amylase and lipase remained normal. the patient's urine output throughout her postoperative course was excellent. the pain service came up with a regimen of a fentanyl patch with the addition or oral dilaudid for breakthrough pain as her outpatient regimen. the patient was discharged on , postoperative seven, afebrile with stable vital signs. the patient's pathology report subsequently revealed renal cell carcinoma (a clear-cell type, grade iii) demonstrating invasion through the capsule into the perinephric fat with venous invasion; 0/2 perihilar nodes were positive for malignancy; periaortic nodes were positive for malignancy. medications on discharge: 1. fentanyl patch 25-mcg q.72h. 2. dilaudid 2 mg to 4 mg p.o. q.6h. p.r.n. for breakthrough pain. 3. colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d. condition at discharge: condition on discharge was stable. discharge diagnoses: renal cell carcinoma of the left kidney with tumor thrombus into the vena cava, status post left radical nephrectomy and left renal vein thrombectomy. , m.d. dictated by: medquist36 procedure: venous catheterization, not elsewhere classified nephroureterectomy other excision of vessels, abdominal veins radical excision of periaortic lymph nodes injection of sclerosing agent into vein diagnoses: unspecified pleural effusion malignant neoplasm of kidney, except pelvis paralytic ileus calculus of gallbladder without mention of cholecystitis, without mention of obstruction secondary and unspecified malignant neoplasm of intra-abdominal lymph nodes other venous embolism and thrombosis of renal vein Answer: The patient is high likely exposed to

Medical Report: history of present illness/continuatin: his hospital course was complicated by agitation/confusion. in addition, on the patient was noted to have increased respiratory rate, decreasing o2 sat in the 80s and rigors with a fever of 102. he was noted on chest x-ray to have a right lower lobe infiltrate. he was started on levofloxacin and metronidazole. however, the patient continued to decline and had to be intubated. he was extubated on . at this time he was noted to have elevated troponins. he was treated with aspirin, nitro, lasix and metoprolol. on he was reintubated and his antibiotics were changed to tobramycin and zosyn when culture results were positive for staph aureus in the sputum. the patient was switched to zosyn only therapy on . he was able to be extubated on and at that time the patient was transferred to the for cardiac catheterization. at the the patient had a cardiac catheterization, which revealed diffuse disease in the left anterior descending coronary artery, and 80% obtuse marginal one lesion. his pulmonary capillary wedge pressure was 26. a selective coronary angiogram revealed a left dominant system. the lmca was normal. the previously placed stent in the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery was patent. the rest of the left anterior descending coronary artery had moderate diffuse disease. the d1 had 70% stenosis. the previously placed proximal lcx stent was patent. the obtuse marginal one had an 80% stenosis and a total occluded lower pole. the right coronary artery was a small nondominant vessel without critical lesions. the patient underwent successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and stenting of the obtuse marginal one. unsuccessful pci on d1. the final diagnosis was a two vessel coronary

failed a speech and swallow evaluation and thus was not started on oral intake. he was continued on zosyn and remained afebrile. his hospital course was mainly complicated by change in mental status. he required a one on one sitter. he was able to be transferred to the floor as he was stable from a cardiac standpoint. a cardiac echocardiogram was obtained, which showed that his left atrium was normal in size. his left ventricular wall thickness and cavity size were also normal. he had mild regional left ventricular systolic dysfunction with mid to distal septal hypokinesis and inferior hypokinesis. the patient's ejection fraction was 55 to 60%. on the floor the patient continued to improve. he was seen by physical therapy who was able to walk the patient. the patient continued to receive rehabilitation from an orthopedic standpoint for his knee replacement. unfortunately, however, the patient continued to fail his speech and swallow evaluation. the patient was thus seen by the

Consider the following medical report that includes the patient's historical health records. Use it to predict the disease that the patient is high likely exposed to. Medical Report: history of present illness: mr. is a 45 year-old man with known three vessel coronary disease, type 1 diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and celiac sprue who presents to the emergency department following an episode of nausea and diaphoresis. several months prior he had a stress test for symptoms of dyspnea on exertion that showed inferoposterior hypokinesis and a subsequent catheterization revealed a three vessel disease. at that time it was decided to give him a trial of medical therapy including nitrates, beta blocker and ace inhibitor given the presumed difficulty of intervening on his right coronary artery lesion and the likelihood of restenosis. in the meantime the patient notes that he has been doing very well. his dyspnea on exertion and shortness of breath has been very stable. he denies having any other chest pain, orthopnea or paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea or pedal edema. on the morning of admission he states he was doing some yard work when he had the sudden onset of diaphoresis and nausea, but frankly denies having any chest pain, shortness of breath or vomiting. he initially believed that this was due to hypoglycemia, but checked his blood sugar and found that it was 105. he then took one sublingual nitroglycerin and his symptoms resolved within the hour. his symptoms of nausea returned in the emergency department at the outside hospital he presented to, but resolved again following nitroglycerin. however, this did leave him with a systolic pressure in the 80s with a heart rate of 45 that was then treated with a 1 mg of atropine. he was transferred to for further care. past medical history: 1. coronary artery disease, catheterization in shows an ejection fraction of 55%, posterior hypokinesis and three vessel disease. 2. type 1 diabetes mellitus for thirty years with complaints of neuropathy and retinopathy. 3. peripheral vascular disease status post multiple vascular procedures most recently a left femoral to anterior tibial artery bypass graft. 4. celiac sprue diagnosed by colonoscopy performed secondary to anemia. 5. status post head injury 25 years ago. 6. depression. 7. anemia. past surgical history: 1. status post repair of malfunctioning penile prosthesis . 2. status post right inguinal hernia . 3. status post left femoral thromboendarterectomy and profundoplasty with stem to above the knee bypass graft using nonreverse saphenous vein with immediate revision with vein patch angioplasty in . 4. status post left external iliac to deep femoral artery bypass with 8 mm gortex graft and

pack year history. he has quit for two years, but recently restarted. he drinks occasional alcohol. family history: notable for a father with a history of myocardial infarction in his sixties and mother with a history of a myocardial infarction in her fifties. physical examination: his temperature is 97.8. heart rate 54. respiratory rate 18. blood pressure 128/65. o2 sats 99% on room air. in general, he is comfortable and in no acute distress. he has chronic slightly slurred speech. head, eyes, ears, nose and throat his pupils are equal, round and reactive to light. extraocular movements intact. oropharynx is unremarkable. there is no observed soft tissue swelling. neck is supple without jvd or lymphadenopathy. heart has a regular rate and rhythm without murmurs, rubs or gallops with a normal s1 and s2. lungs are clear to auscultation bilaterally. abdomen is soft, nontender, nondistended with normoactive bowel sounds and no hepatosplenomegaly. extremities without clubbing, cyanosis or edema. there is 1+ palpable dorsalis pedis pulses bilaterally. neurologically he is awake and oriented times three. his cranial nerves ii through xii are intact. laboratory studies on admission: his white blood cell count 8.2, hematocrit 33.6, platelets 242, pt 12.4, ptt 37.1, inr 1.1, sodium 139, potassium 4.9, chloride 105, bicarb 24, bun 10, creatinine 0.8, glucose 253. his cks at the outside hospital were 71 and 58. his troponin is less then 0.3. hospital course: the patient was admitted to the medicine service for a suspicion of myocardial ischemia. the cardiology team was involved and they recommended that the patient receive a treadmill stress echocardiogram. they also discovered that the patient had complaints of some poorly characterized episodes of blood tinged sputum over the past without months without hemoptysis. for that reason a pulmonary consultation was obtained. they performed a ct scan on his chest that was essentially normal. they believed that the combination of aspirin, plavix and a questionable history of vioxx use may be leading to some minor mucosal irritation and bleeding, possibly due to smoking. the patient had an exercise stress echocardiogram that was stopped prematurely for a drop in his systolic blood pressure. he had no symptoms or electrocardiogram changes. given his history of three vessel coronary disease and diabetes mellitus it was believed that he would strongly benefit from a cardiac bypass. on the patient was taken to the operating room where he had a coronary artery bypass graft times three. he had a left internal mammary coronary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery, left radial artery to distal right coronary and saphenous vein graft to obtuse marginal. his cardiopulmonary bypass time was 69 minutes, his cross clamp time was 58 minutes. postoperatively, he s taken to the cardiac surgery intensive care unit. he was extubated on the evening of his operation and the following day was transferred to the floor. he still had his chest tubes in place when he was transferred. these were subsequently discontinued on the third postoperative day. in addition, his sternal wires were discontinued in a normal fashion. the team was involved given his long history of diabetes and problems with hyperglycemia. he did have blood sugars as high as 430 during this admission. we had to make adjustments to both his lantus and his humalog sliding scale. by the fourth postoperative day we believed the patient was almost ready for discharge, however, he was sitting up and upon coughing had a notable amount of serous drainage expressed from his sternum while coughing. he was started on intravenous vancomycin. his sternum was painted with betadine and was covered with a dry sterile dressing. he was kept in the hospital for further observation and by the following day he had only scant drainage. it was felt he was safe to be discharged home with a week of keflex. in addition, his blood sugar was under better control. on the patient was discharged home in stable condition. he was instructed to keep his follow up appointment in approximately one week. at that time he could come back here and have a wound check to check the status of his sternum. in addition, he is instructed to follow up with his primary care physician . in approximately two weeks and dr. in four weeks.

Medical Report: allergies: patient recorded as having no known allergies to drugs attending: chief complaint: hypotension major surgical or invasive procedure: intubation history of present illness: 83 year old male with pmh of esrd on hd and chf presenting from hd session with lethargic and hypotension. patient was noted to be hypotensive and lethargic on arrival at hd session and throughout his treatment and was noted to have no urine output (oliguric at baseline). he was given vanc and gent at hd and at the end of the session sent to the ed. . on arrival to the ed his initial bp was 88/47 and he was noted to be somnolent but responsive to voices. he was bolused with ivf and briefly went up to a sbp of ~100 but then went back down. an attempt to place an ij line failed and during the procedure he became bradycardic. . levophed was started peripherally and a femoral line was placed. he was then intubated. a cxr showed a rll pna and he was started on levoquin. an ekg showed precordial depressions, ii and avf, v4-v6, and a troponin was 0.08 (near baseline in setting of arf). given an aspirin. . at the time of transfer his blood pressures were failing to adequately respond to levo at 0.27. bps were ~88/44 and he was being given additional fluids. last temperature in the ed was 100.0. fs was 147. he received a total of ~3l ivf in the ed. . on arrival in the icu initial

110/40-80/30 with heart rate of 80. neo and dopamine were initiated to keep sbp greater than 120. urine output was low postoperatively. she was transferred to the sicu for administration of neosynephrine and dopamine. urine output picked up to 100cc/hour with pressor support keeping sbp >120. renal ultrasound on revealed "no evidence of perinephric fluid collections or hydronephrosis. there is flow in the main renal artery and vein. there is no detectable diastolic flow within the upper, mid, or lower poles." prograf was initiated on pod 1. one unit of prbc was given for hct of 27.5 on pod 2. repeat hct was 33.8. urine output decreased to 36-40cc/hour. she was medicated with morphine sulfate pca for pain with fair relief. creatinine dropped from 11.8 preoperatively to 8.8 on pod 2. nephrology followed the patient closely and recommended iv hydration with 1/2 saline and d/c of neosynephrine as urine output was ~30ml/hour. glucoses ran in the 300 range. this was managed with an insulin drip. glucoses improved to the low 100s. the attending was consulted and lantus insulin was initiated in addition to sliding scale humalog when the insulin drip was stopped. she will follow up with as an outpatient for diabetes management. she was transferred to the transplant unit on pod 3 after neosynephrine and dopamine were stopped. bp was stable at 115-125/60. she was started on po bicarb for level of 15. wbc dropped to 1.5 on pod 4. this was felt to be partially related to cellcept. she received six doses of atg. a repeat ultrasound was done on . this demonstrated "a

low volume dwells 1.5 liter 1.5% on (pod 6). she did not tolerated these dwells very well due to abdominal fullness and pain over llq. she was unable to pull off fluid and was actually positive 250cc on pod 7. leg edema decreased a small amount, but weight remained above dry weight. physical therapy was consulted as she experienced difficulty ambulating secondary to fluid retention. pt did not recommend need for rehab and felt that she would be able to manage at home with pt. the wbc dropped on pod 6 to 1.7. she received neupogen 480mg sc once and valcyte was decreased to every other day. wbc increased to 12.9 after neupogen. on pod 8 it was decided that patient could be discharged home without peritoneal dialysis as she was not short of breath, nauseated or so edematous that she couldn't ambulate. she was tolerating a regular diet and moving her bowels. pain was moderately well controlled with oral dilaudid. percocet were ineffective. dialysis was stopped secondary to leaking of clear fluid from tenckhoff site and discomfort. jp was removed on pod 7. in conjunction with nephrology, it was decided to discharge with follow up labs in 2 days. pt, ptt and inr was ordered in
