Mr. Quigg is a 42-year-old man with history of diabetes, end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis, left Charcot foot complicated by recurrent cellulitis who presented with left lower leg swelling, erythema, and pain. On admission, his temperature was 100.8, heart rate was 111, and blood pressure was 140/70. His left lower extremity had 1+ pitting edema with erythema on the anterior shin and foot. He was uptitrated to 5mg and also lopressor, started on Lyrica and oxycodone for breakthrough pain, and received Fentanyl PCA. His home medications included Colace 100 mg b.i.d., folate 1 mg p.o. daily, gemfibrozil 600 mg b.i.d., Lantus 30 mg subcu q.p.m., Lipitor 80 mg nightly, Nephrocaps, Neurontin 300 mg daily, PhosLo 2001 mg t.i.d., Protonix 40 mg daily, Renagel 3200 mg t.i.d., Requip 2 mg p.o. b.i.d., and Coumadin. His Lipitor was decreased to 20mg due to rhabdomylosis risk, and he was also started on low dose b-blocker to reduce perioperative MI risk prior to his surgery. His Vancomycin was continued given his history of MRSA cellulitis, with a goal of a level less than 20, and he was bridged with heparin with a goal PTT of 60-80. He was restarted on his Lantus and Aspart doses with meals, and his Coumadin was held prior to surgery and decreased to 20mg with a repeat lipid panel in 4-6 weeks. He required antibiotics which were discontinued at this time and he was discharged with dry sterile dressing changes to his residual limb daily, PTT goal 60-80, INR goal 2-3 until stable off of levofloxacin, monitoring of FS and adjustment of DM regimen, monitoring pain scale and decreasing pain medications as pain improves, hemodialysis M/W/F, and follow up with Dr. Carpino voice message left on his medical assistant's voice mail and Dr. Lynes 6/10/06 at 9:30am. Psychiatry service was consulted who recommended low dose Ativan prior to him going for dialysis. He was initially placed on a ketamine drip and given IV Levofloxacin and IV Flagyl to cover gram negatives and anaerobes respectively, and started on oxycontin 80mg tid with oxycodone for breakthrough pain and Lyrica for neuropathic pain. He was comfortable prior to discharge on this current regimen.

What medications if any has the patient tried for pain in the past

A 66-year-old gentleman with a medical history significant for coronary artery disease and two prior MIs presented with substernal chest pain while walking that lasted 2-3 hours and was relieved by rest and sublingual nitroglycerin. He was admitted and cardiac catheterization revealed 90% proximal LAD stenosis, 90% mid LAD and 100% distal LAD stenosis, 100% mid LVB1, 80% mid circumflex, 70% proximal D1, 70% proximal PDA, and a right dominant circulation, with diffuse coronary calcification and extensive diffuse disease with small distal vessels. LAD in stent restenosis and collateral flow diffusely small left main. On 4/15/05, the patient underwent CABG x4 with SVG1 to RCA, and sequential graft of SVG2 to D1 and then OM1, with LIMA to LAD and an LAD endarterectomy. On arrival to the hospital, he was given 150 mg of Plavix, heparin 500 units for 48 hours, and aspirin that same night.

Ms. Hesby is a 36-year-old woman with very poorly controlled type 1 diabetes, end-stage renal disease, right eye blindness, lower extremity neuropathy, gastroparesis, and a history of extensive infections. She presented to Path Community Hospital with a right thigh burn and infection, and was given a prescription for antibiotics, 20 units of IV insulin, 500 mL normal saline boluses, and several 250 mL boluses, as well as 2 amps of calcium gluconate, Kayexalate, albuterol nebs, and Augmentin and IV vancomycin for her right thigh cellulitis. For long-term management, she was prescribed Lantus 24 units subcu each night, NovoLog sliding scale, PhosLo, Nephrocaps, Vitamin D, Sevelamer 1600 t.i.d., Toprol 100 mg p.o. daily, Lisinopril 5 mg p.o. daily, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Keppra 500 mg p.o. b.i.d., Flovent two puffs b.i.d., Albuterol p.r.n., Baclofen 5 mg p.o. t.i.d., and Ambien 10 mg p.o. at bedtime p.r.n. The patient was admitted with a diagnosis of Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) and was stabilized in the MICU on an insulin waves. She was then transitioned to NPH and finally to Lantus 24 units subcu and her hypertension is being managed on her home dose of Lopressor 25 q.i.d. and switched to Captopril, which is being titrated. Her area of cellulitis has completely resolved, and if she becomes acidotic, the patient can be managed with sodium bicarbonate and D5W in small boluses. The patient is taking her Nephrocaps and sevelamer and is receiving prophylaxis with heparin 5000 units subcu t.i.d., however she has consistently refused her heparin. Of note, on the night of 1/26/06, the patient complained of severe cramping, right lower quadrant pain, which is new. She noted this pain has increased rapidly in the setting of diarrhea. Several C. diff studies, which were sent recently have been negative and the patient has had no blood in her diarrhea. Presumed cause is Augmentin, which has been stopped. The patient has continued to eat freely and is passing diarrhea despite her complaints of 10/10 severe abdominal pain. A CT scan of her abdomen was ordered, but she refused to take oral or IV contrast. The results of this CT scan are pending and will be followed up by the new medical team.

He was also prescribed Spironolactone 25 mg p.o. daily, Atorvastatin 80 mg daily, Niaspan 0.5 gm p.o. twice daily, and Coumadin 5 mg p.o. at night. The patient's diabetes was controlled with regular insulin and placed back on his oral hypoglycemics, which were discontinued on admission and was encouraged to stop smoking. He had runs of ectopy and SVT, so was placed on a heparin drip. Left heart cath revealed wall defect consistent with a right coronary artery infarct and the patient was continued on Spironolactone. He was discharged in a stable condition on Aspirin 325 p.o. daily, Lisinopril 4 mg p.o. daily, Nicotine patch 14 mg per day topical, Spironolactone 25 mg p.o. daily, Paxil 25 mg p.o. daily, Atorvastatin 80 mg daily, Niaspan 0.5 gm p.o. twice daily, Carvedilol 12.5 mg p.o. twice daily, Plavix 75 mg daily, Gemfibrozil 900 mg p.o. twice daily and Coumadin 5 mg p.o. at night, with instructions to follow up with PCP and Cardiology as well as EP, to check his daily weights and report any increases to his PCP, and to arrange to have his INR drawn on 6/21/06 and follow-up INRs to be drawn every seven days.

Did the patient ever take any medication for her severe mr. in the past

This 54-year-old female with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis had an apparent VFib arrest at hemodialysis and was admitted to the CCU after being intubated in the Vibay General Hospital ED. She was intubated, received amiodarone and dopamine, as her BP was low. An x-ray revealed diffuse bilateral opacities, possible pulmonary edema versus aspiration pneumonia, and an EKG showed normal sinus rhythm 100 beats per minute with no acute ST changes. Her first set of cardiac enzyme revealed a creatinine kinase of 116 and the MB fraction of 0.7 and troponin T of less than assay and lactate of 1.8. A fistulogram and angioplasty of her right AV fistula was performed on 9/14/06 with prednisone premedication but it was unsuccessful and therefore a left IJ tunneled dialysis catheter was inserted on 10/18/06 with the tip ending in the right atrium. HOME MEDICATIONS at the time of admission included amitriptyline 25 mg p.o. bedtime, enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. daily, enalapril 20 mg p.o. b.i.d., Lasix 200 mg p.o. b.i.d., Losartan 50 mg p.o. daily, Toprol-XL 200 mg p.o. b.i.d., Advair Diskus 250/50 one puff inhaler b.i.d., insulin NPH 50 units q.a.m. subcu and 25 units q.p.m. subcu, insulin lispro 18 units subcu at dinner time, Protonix 40 mg p.o. daily, sevelamer 1200 mg p.o. t.i.d., tramadol 25 mg p.o. q.6 h. p.r.n. pain. A bronchoscopy was performed on 9/14/06 with prednisone premedication but it was negative for aspiration. The patient had difficulty weaning from vent and was finally extubated on 0/22/06. She had a single set of coag-negative Staph positive blood cultures from Quinton catheter on 8/8/06 and was treated with vancomycin dose by renal levels. An Echo on 8/1/06 showed an EF of 60 to 65% with mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and no wall motion abnormalities. The patient was continued on telemetry and treated with her home dose of beta-blocker with good response and was gradually advanced to an oral diet with no signs of aspiration status post extubation. She was also given heparin subcutaneously and Nexium as prophylaxis. The patient is full code and will likely need rehab and is being screened by PT and OT and will likely be discharged to rehab when bed is available.

What is the dosage of the medication the patient was prescribed for her BP

This 62-year-old white male with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease and ischemic cardiomyopathy was admitted with syncope. He had a history of anterior MI in 1980 and 1986 as well as a CABG in 1987 with LIMA to LAD, SVG to OM and SVG to PDA. Evaluation for heart transplant found cirrhosis by liver spleen scan which ruled out the possibility of transplant. His captopril dose was reduced from 37.5 mg to 25 mg t.i.d. with marked improvement in his energy and less dizziness. SVGs and a patent LIMA were found by Dobutamine radionuclide study, revealing inferior and inferolateral infarct. The patient's admission medications included Captopril 25 mg p.o. t.i.d., Isordil 40 mg p.o. t.i.d., Lipitor 20 mg p.o. q.d., NPH insulin 65 units subcu b.i.d., Xanax p.r.n., torsemide 120 mg p.o. q.a.m., torsemide 80 mg p.o. q.p.m., digoxin 0.125 mg p.o. q.d., Synthroid 250 mcg p.o. q.d., and Prozac 20 mg p.o. q.d. He improved off diuretics, nitrates and ACE inhibitor as well as liberalization of his diet regarding salt and fluid intake. An endocrine consult was called to evaluate for possible contribution of autonomic insufficiency secondary to his diabetes mellitus. He was discharged home with services.

What was the dosage prescribed of lipitor

This is a 59-year-old female with a history of rheumatic heart disease, endocarditis, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and congestive heart failure who presented with increasing shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. She was given recent Levaquin for an upper respiratory tract infection, then started on Flagyl for a possible C. difficile infection and was diuresed with IV Lasix with good output per report. She complained of 10/10 abdominal pain and was given some Dilaudid. Her hematocrit at one point required two units of packed red blood cells, and she was placed on a heparin drip at 950 units per hour to maintain a PTT between 60 and 80 secondary to atrial fibrillation that has been rate controlled with a beta-blocker. She was discharged on diltiazem 30 mg q.i.d. and a normal dosing of Nexium 40 mg p.o. q.d. while in-house.

She was also transitioned to Lovenox 60 mg b.i.d. with a renal adjustment and was sent to the ED for diuresis where she was given 60 mg of Lasix.

Has the patient had previous senokot

Mrs. Wetterauer is a 54-year-old female with coronary artery disease status post inferior myocardial infarction in March of 1997, with sick sinus syndrome, status post permanent pacemaker placement, and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation controlled with amiodarone; also with history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension. On 1/11, she experienced severe respiratory distress and was unable to be intubated on the field. She was ultimately intubated at Sirose, and an echocardiogram showed an ejection fraction of 25 to 30 percent with flat CKs. She was diuresed six liters and a right heart catheterization showed a pulmonary artery pressure of 40/15, wedge of 12, and cardiac output of 5.2. Hemodynamics indicated her cardiac output was dependent on her SVR. At the outside hospital, a right upper lobe infiltrate was noted and she was given gentamicin 250 mg times one, and clindamycin 600 mg. She was diagnosed with pneumonia and treated with clindamycin, which caused resolution of her white count. She was also given Solu-Medrol 40 mg intravenous q.6 hours for possible asthma, and had an increase in her Lasix and lisinopril dose, as well as her amiodarone. Her last admission was on 10/6 for atypical chest pain, and she was placed on Bactrim Double Strength b.i.d. times a total of seven days, as well as Lovenox 60 mg b.i.d., aspirin 325 p.o. q.d., lisinopril 40 mg p.o. b.i.d., digoxin 0.25, Lopressor 100 mg b.i.d., Zantac, Albuterol, Flovent, Solu-Medrol, and amiodarone 300 mg once a day.

The patient had been having low grade fevers and a cough productive of a green sputum, and experienced diaphoretic episodes, both at rest and exertion, which was relieved by a sublingual nitroglycerin. The latest echocardiogram in May of 1997 showed an ejection fraction of 35% with mid to distal septal and apical akinesis and inferior akinesis with mild mitral regurgitation, and she went 4 minutes and 18 seconds on an exercise tolerance test with Thallium which showed only fixed defects, no reversible defects.

Has the patient ever had nitroglycerin

This is a 46-year-old morbidly obese female with a history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus complicated by BKA on two prior occasions, who was admitted to the MICU with BKA, urosepsis, and a non-Q-wave MI. On presentation to the Emergency Department, her vital signs were notable for a blood pressure of 189/92, pulse rate of 120, respiratory rate of 20, and an O2 sat of 90%. She was given insulin, sublingual nitroglycerin x three, 4 mg of morphine, 5 mg of Lopressor, and started on a heparin drip and IV antibiotics, and admitted to the MICU for further management. Her past medical history included insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus for how many years, positive ethanol use, approximately one drink per week, and denied IV drug use or other illicit drug use. She was placed on an insulin drip and hydrated with intravenous fluids, with improvement, and eventually transitioned to NPH with insulin sliding scale coverage. Despite escalating her dose of NPH up to 65 U subcu b.i.d. on the day of discharge, she continued to have elevated blood sugars >200 and required coverage with insulin sliding scale. This issue will need to be addressed as an outpatient. She was also placed on cefotaxime for gram negative coverage, with both her blood cultures and urine cultures growing out E. coli which were sensitive to cefotaxime and gentamycin. As she initially continued to be febrile and continued to have positive blood cultures, one dose of gentamycin was given for synergy, and she was eventually transitioned to p.o. levofloxacin and will take 7 days of p.o. levofloxacin to complete a total 14-day course of antibiotics for urosepsis. She was initially placed on aspirin, heparin, and a beta blocker, and once her creatinine normalized, an ACE inhibitor was also added. Heparin was discontinued once the concern for PE was alleviated, and her beta blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated up for a goal systolic blood pressure of <140 and a pulse of <70. On admission, the patient was on several pain medicines, including amitriptyline, Flexeril, and Valium for reported history of sciatica and low back pain, which were discontinued and she was placed on Neurontin for likely diabetic neuropathy. She was also placed on GI prophylaxis with Carafate and treated symptomatically with Imodium p.r.n. diarrhea. The patient was discharged with enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., NPH Humulin insulin 65 U subcu b.i.d., human insulin sliding scale: for blood sugars 151-200 give 4 U, for blood sugars 201-250 give 6 U, for blood sugars 251-300 give 8 U, for blood sugars 301-350 give 10 U, Imodium 2 mg p.o. q. 6 hrs. p.r.n. diarrhea, Niferex 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., nitroglycerin 1/150 one tab sublingual q. 5 min. x 3 p.r.n. chest pain, multivitamin one tab p.o. q.d., simvastatin 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., Neurontin 600 mg p.o. t.i.d., levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. q.d. x 5 days, Toprol XL 400 mg p.o. q.d., lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q.d. The patient was evaluated by the physical therapist, who noted her to walk around the hospital without significant difficulty.

Patient was admitted to the Toott Hospital surgery service after undergoing LRYGB and was transferred to the floor from the PACU in stable condition. Pain was controlled and no issues were reported overnight into POD1. The patient had an UGI on POD1 that was negative for obstruction or leak, and was started on a Stage I diet which was tolerated well. The following day the patient was started on a Stage II diet that was tolerated as well, but initially struggled to have adequate intake. The patient was started on ALBUTEROL INHALER 2 PUFF INH QID PRN Shortness of Breath, Wheezing, LANTUS (INSULIN GLARGINE) 60 UNITS SC DAILY, ROXICET ORAL SOLUTION (OXYCODONE+APAP LIQUID) 5-10 MILLILITERS PO Q4H PRN Pain, ZANTAC SYRUP (RANITIDINE HCL SYRUP) 150 MG PO BID, ACTIGALL (URSODIOL) 300 MG PO BID, and LEVAQUIN (LEVOFLOXACIN) 500 MG PO DAILY with instructions to administer iron products a minimum of 2 hours before or after a levofloxacin or ciprofloxacin dose dose, and to cycle (hold 1 hr before to 2 hr after) if on tube feeds, and to take 2 hours before or 2 hours after dairy products. Sugars remained high in 200's during admission and patient was seen by Endocrine service and sugars finally improving with lantus 60 sc hs. The patient also had some difficulties with urination on POD4 and required a foley catheter for about a day, but was d/c'd the AM before she was discharged and urinated without incident. Patient was noted to have a UTI at discharge and was started on three day course of levaquin. The patient was discharged in stable condition, tolerating stage II diet well, ambulating, voiding independently, and with adequate pain control. The patient was given explicit instructions to follow-up in clinic with Dr. Truglia in 1-2 weeks and sent home with VNA for wound checks and close sugar control with instructions to f/u with Leland Bredeson by phone and record fingersticks, and to f/u with her PCP if she has further problems with urination. The patient was also instructed to shower but not bathe, swim or otherwise immerse her incision, not to lift anything heavier than a phone book, not to drive or drink alcohol while taking narcotic pain medication, and to resume all of her home medications, and to call her doctor or go to the nearest emergency room if she has fevers > 101.5 F, vomiting, or increased redness, swelling, or discharge from her incision.

The patient is a 58-year-old female with chronic renal insufficiency, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and anemia who presented with two weeks of diffuse abdominal pain that acutely worsened one day prior to admission with associated nausea, nonbloody emesis, and chills. She was initially given a seven-day course of ciprofloxacin and oxycodone for pain, but stopped taking them after developing constipation. She currently presents with complaints of diarrhea and was given ampicillin 2 g IV, gentamicin 80 mg IV, Flagyl 500 mg IV and 8 units of insulin. She was put on levofloxacin, vancomycin, and Flagyl as her left foot had been encasted with evidence of underlying infection, and her blood cultures grew MRSA, which is presumed to need eight weeks of vancomycin. She was put on erythromycin with a change to Reglan on 8/6/06 per renal or liver disease and kept on Compazine for nausea. Later, it was determined that the patient was iron deficient and she was put on iron supplementation and darbepoetin initially and changed to erythropoietin later during dialysis.

Lisinopril was switched to captopril, then discontinued given her bumping which might suggest thalassemia. She is on iron and Epogen with Prophylaxis: Heparin and H2 blocker. Her minimally needed insulin was 5 units a day and her sugars were well controlled otherwise low. Lasix was decreased to 80 mg p.o. b.i.d. and the x-ray on the day of her discharge showed it was unlikely consolidated lobar pneumonia because of the improved forward flow from discontinuation of her ACE inhibitor. She was admitted with hypoglycemic diabetes possibly secondary to infection or logistical and social barriers, and was treated initially with levofloxacin for her right lower lobe pneumonia versus CHF, pleural effusion which decreased only minimally with diuresis of 1 to 2 liters overnight and for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes she underwent a thoracentesis on 2/11/05. Her chronic renal insufficiency was noted with creatinine at baseline of 2.6 and it decreased significantly on this admission possibly because of improved forward flow from discontinuation of her ACE inhibitor. She was on iron and Epogen with an improved hematocrit from the prior admission but no change in her MCV which suggests that she has more than renal disease causing her microcytosis. Her diabetc diet was low sodium, low fat, low cholesterol and prophylaxis included Heparin and H2 blocker. Her discharge medications included 1. Lasix 80 mg p.o. b.i.d., 2. Metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., 3. Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.d., 4. Amitriptyline 25 to 50 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n., 5. Multivitamins, 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Folate 100 mg p.o. q.d., 8. Lisinopril 20 mg p.o. q.d., 9. Iron gluconate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., and 10. Epogen 5000 units subcu. q. week. She was screened for admission to Jack Nor Medical Center Of where she will go today with intense physical therapy and learning greater independence in her daily functioning. Her pelvic films were negative for fracture. She should be ambulated t.i.d. with follow up with Dr. Rufener when she is able, Lasix dose can be increased as needed for better diuresis, and studies pending include cytology and culture of pleural fluid and follow-up chest x-ray on the day of her discharge.

Has this patient ever tried multivitamins.

Mr. Mauras is a 72-year-old man with history of stable angina, type 2 diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, former smoking history, and history of seizure disorder with cataracts. He had occasional anginal symptoms prior to discharge and took about two nitroglycerins per week. Over the past week, he had escalating chest pain requiring one nitroglycerin per day. The pain was relieved by rest and nitroglycerin. One week prior to admission, his digoxin was stopped and his amiodarone was decreased. His Plavix was stopped and his Coumadin was held. On the morning of admission, he had chest pain and received Lopressor, Enalapril, Lovenox treatment dose and a Plavix load in the ED. He was found to have flash pulmonary edema and in atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and was taken back to the catheterization lab and given four stents to his saphenous vein graft, OM1 with good resolution of his symptoms. He was transferred to the floor and was given an amiodarone load given his ejection fraction and increased ectopy on telemetry. His troponin had been trended down to the 0.2s by discharge and his beta-blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated to heart rate and blood pressure. Prior to anticipated discharge, he re-developed flash pulmonary edema secondary to atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and was re-loaded with digoxin. He was started on Mucomyst precath with good effect, had a difficult-to-place Foley, and was started on Flomax with good effect. His creatinine on discharge was 1.2, his metformin was held, and he was continued on Lantus with sliding scale insulin. He was given three units of packed red blood cells given his history of CAD and was prescribed with Amiodarone 200 mg, Enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg, Librium 10 mg, Colace 200 mg, Ferrous gluconate 324 mg, Lasix 40 mg, Nitroglycerin one tab, Dilantin 100 mg, Senna two tabs, Coumadin 3 mg, Lipitor 80 mg, Flomax 0.4 mg, Plavix 75 mg, Lantus 14 units, Metformin 500 mg, Ranitidine 150 mg, Digoxin 0.125 mg, Enalapril 10 mg, and Atenolol 50 mg, with follow-up appointments with his PCP, Dr. Kelley Hernon of Electrophysiology on 7/8/05, and Dr. Daft on 9/20/05, and INR checked on 8/4/05 or 7/8/05 with Coumadin adjusted accordingly.

Has the patient had lasix in the past

This is a 59-year-old female with a history of rheumatic heart disease, endocarditis, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and congestive heart failure who presented with increasing shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. She was given recent Levaquin for an upper respiratory tract infection, then started on Flagyl for a possible C. difficile infection and was diuresed with IV Lasix with good output per report. She complained of 10/10 abdominal pain and was given some Dilaudid. Her hematocrit at one point required two units of packed red blood cells, and she was placed on a heparin drip at 950 units per hour to maintain a PTT between 60 and 80 secondary to atrial fibrillation that has been rate controlled with a beta-blocker. She was discharged on diltiazem 30 mg q.i.d. and a normal dosing of Nexium 40 mg p.o. q.d. while in-house. She was given Darvon and Codeine as needed for pain, and was prescribed Caltrate plus Vitamin D 600 mg, Maalox tablets, Magnesium oxide 400 mg, Multivitamin, Niferex 150 mg, and Lovenox 60 mg subcutaneously b.i.d. with a renal adjustment and NovoLog 15 units subcutaneously with breakfast and dinner. The patient was instructed to call Dr. Mccutchan office to coordinate her appointment for her valve repair in the next one to two weeks pending her surgeon's return and to call Dr. Doug Schlanger on March 2005 to discuss surgical plans and also to follow up. All her blood cultures should be followed up prior to her surgery and if any of her blood cultures become positive in the interim, a long course of antibiotic therapy should be started and surgery should be delayed at the discussion of the Cardiovascular Service. Her medications included Lasix 40 mg p.o. q.o.d. alternating with 80 mg p.o. Lasix q.o.d., Digoxin 0.125 mg q.o.d. alternating with 0.25 q.o.d., Lisinopril 20 mg p.o. q.d., Coumadin 6 mg p.o. q.o.d. alternating with 4 mg q.o.d., Omeprazole 20 mg b.i.d., Metformin 500 mg daily, Insulin 70/30 65 units q.a.m., 35 units q.p.m., Calcium 600 mg p.o. b.i.d., Magnesium 400 mg p.o. b.i.d., Multivitamin, Iron tablets, Actonel every Wednesday, Caltrate plus vitamin D 600 mg one tablet p.o. b.i.d., Maalox tablets quick dissolve, Magnesium oxide 400 mg p.o. b.i.d., Niferex 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Senokot three tablets p.o. b.i.d., Codeine 15 mg to 30 mg p.o. q.4h. p.r.n. pain.

She was also transitioned to Lovenox 60 mg b.i.d. with a renal adjustment and was sent to the ED for diuresis where she was given 60 mg of Lasix.

Is the patient currently or have they ever taken senokot

This is a 46-year-old morbidly obese female with a history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus complicated by BKA on two prior occasions, who was admitted to the MICU with BKA, urosepsis, and a non-Q-wave MI. On presentation to the Emergency Department, her vital signs were notable for a blood pressure of 189/92, pulse rate of 120, respiratory rate of 20, and an O2 sat of 90%. She was given insulin, sublingual nitroglycerin x three, 4 mg of morphine, 5 mg of Lopressor, and started on a heparin drip and IV antibiotics, and admitted to the MICU for further management. Her past medical history included insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus for how many years, positive ethanol use, approximately one drink per week, and denied IV drug use or other illicit drug use. She was placed on an insulin drip and hydrated with intravenous fluids, with improvement, and eventually transitioned to NPH with insulin sliding scale coverage. Despite escalating her dose of NPH up to 65 U subcu b.i.d. on the day of discharge, she continued to have elevated blood sugars >200 and required coverage with insulin sliding scale. This issue will need to be addressed as an outpatient. She was also placed on cefotaxime for gram negative coverage, with both her blood cultures and urine cultures growing out E. coli which were sensitive to cefotaxime and gentamycin. As she initially continued to be febrile and continued to have positive blood cultures, one dose of gentamycin was given for synergy, and she was eventually transitioned to p.o. levofloxacin and will take 7 days of p.o. levofloxacin to complete a total 14-day course of antibiotics for urosepsis. She was initially placed on aspirin, heparin, and a beta blocker, and once her creatinine normalized, an ACE inhibitor was also added. Heparin was discontinued once the concern for PE was alleviated, and her beta blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated up for a goal systolic blood pressure of <140 and a pulse of <70. On admission, the patient was on several pain medicines, including amitriptyline, Flexeril, and Valium for reported history of sciatica and low back pain, which were discontinued and she was placed on Neurontin for likely diabetic neuropathy. She was also placed on GI prophylaxis with Carafate and treated symptomatically with Imodium p.r.n. diarrhea. The patient was discharged with enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., NPH Humulin insulin 65 U subcu b.i.d., human insulin sliding scale: for blood sugars 151-200 give 4 U, for blood sugars 201-250 give 6 U, for blood sugars 251-300 give 8 U, for blood sugars 301-350 give 10 U, Imodium 2 mg p.o. q. 6 hrs. p.r.n. diarrhea, Niferex 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., nitroglycerin 1/150 one tab sublingual q. 5 min. x 3 p.r.n. chest pain, multivitamin one tab p.o. q.d., simvastatin 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., Neurontin 600 mg p.o. t.i.d., levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. q.d. x 5 days, Toprol XL 400 mg p.o. q.d., lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q.d. The patient was evaluated by the physical therapist, who noted her to walk around the hospital without significant difficulty.

Was the patient on any medication for her sciatica

Mr. Raffo is a 59-year-old male with a history of coronary artery disease status post small non-ST elevation myocardial infarction in March of 2000 and also status post cardiac catheterization with 2 vessel disease, small left PICA cerebrovascular accident, congestive heart failure with an echocardiogram in March revealing an ejection fraction of 30%, diabetes mellitus type II complicated by retinopathy, nephropathy and question neuropathy, and hypertension and hypercholesterolemia. On admission, he was on medications including Aspirin daily, Lasix 80 mg p.o. q day, Zaroxolyn 2.5 mg p.o. q day, toprol XL 50 mg p.o. q day, insulin 70/30 65/45, Actos 45 q p.m, Avapro 300 mg p.o. q day, Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., and sublingual nitroglycerin p.r.n. For his cardiovascular issues, he was diuresed with doses of Lasix 200 mg b.i.d. IV, as well as Zaroxolyn, with a weight on admission of 135 kg and on discharge of 132 kg. A repeat echocardiogram at Ethool Hospital showed an ejection fraction of 30-35, left ventricular dimensions of 47 mm, 1 plus mitral regurgitation and global hypokinesis, as well as moderate right ventricular dysfunction. His chronic renal insufficiency is likely secondary to poor diabetic control, with a creatinine of 2.5 on March, 2001 and 3.3 at the time of admission. Acute renal failure with increasing creatinine of 6 after aggressive diuresis with a mean of 0.8 percent was treated with Dopamine started on November, 2001 to aid with renal perfusion and diuresis, which was then weaned off on August, 2001. He was discharged home with services and medications including Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q day, Lasix 80 mg p.o. q day, Zocor 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., insulin 70/30 65 units q a.m., insulin 70/30 45 units q p.m., Toprol XL 50 mg p.o. q day, Levaquin 250 mg p.o. q day for a duration of 7 days, and Actos 45 mg p.o. q p.m. He was in stable condition on discharge.

Ms. Dube is a 58-year-old female with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and a history of a left circumflex coronary artery stent placed three months prior to admission. She presented to the emergency room with left jaw pain, which was relieved with three sublingual nitroglycerin and later with Percocet to which she got some relief. She was started on Lovenox 1 mg per kg subcutaneously b.i.d., beta-blocker, Zocor and ACE inhibitor, t.i.d., glucophage 500 mg b.i.d., Celexa 40 mg p.o. q.d., Zestril 2.5 mg q.d., atenolol 25 mg p.o. q.d., Lipitor 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., Plavix. The patient's Lovenox was reversed with protamine and her hematoma continued to expand overnight, so she received one unit of fresh frozen plasma as well as a third unit of packed red blood cells, resulting in a total of five units of packed red blood cells due to blood loss secondary to her anticoagulation with Lovenox, Plavix, aspirin and a possible STONDE MEDICAL CENTER trial drug. Her headache was treated with Tylenol to which it did not respond and her discharge medications included aspirin 81 mg p.o. q day, Klonopin 0.5 mg p.o. q.h.s., and her home medications of Zocor, Lopressor, captopril, Celexa, Klonopin. Vascular surgery was consulted due to concern for developing compartment syndrome and she was restarted on aspirin. Her head CT was negative for bleeding and she was discharged home on March, 2003 with instructions to follow up with her primary care physician.

Has this patient ever been treated with plavix.

Ms. Hesby is a 36-year-old woman with very poorly controlled type 1 diabetes, end-stage renal disease, right eye blindness, lower extremity neuropathy, gastroparesis, and a history of extensive infections. She presented to Path Community Hospital with a right thigh burn and infection, and was given a prescription for antibiotics, 20 units of IV insulin, 500 mL normal saline boluses, and several 250 mL boluses, as well as 2 amps of calcium gluconate, Kayexalate, albuterol nebs, and Augmentin and IV vancomycin for her right thigh cellulitis. For long-term management, she was prescribed Lantus 24 units subcu each night, NovoLog sliding scale, PhosLo, Nephrocaps, Vitamin D, Sevelamer 1600 t.i.d., Toprol 100 mg p.o. daily, Lisinopril 5 mg p.o. daily, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Keppra 500 mg p.o. b.i.d., Flovent two puffs b.i.d., Albuterol p.r.n., Baclofen 5 mg p.o. t.i.d., and Ambien 10 mg p.o. at bedtime p.r.n. The patient was admitted with a diagnosis of Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) and was stabilized in the MICU on an insulin waves. She was then transitioned to NPH and finally to Lantus 24 units subcu and her hypertension is being managed on her home dose of Lopressor 25 q.i.d. and switched to Captopril, which is being titrated. Her area of cellulitis has completely resolved, and if she becomes acidotic, the patient can be managed with sodium bicarbonate and D5W in small boluses. The patient is taking her Nephrocaps and sevelamer and is receiving prophylaxis with heparin 5000 units subcu t.i.d., however she has consistently refused her heparin. Of note, on the night of 1/26/06, the patient complained of severe cramping, right lower quadrant pain, which is new. She noted this pain has increased rapidly in the setting of diarrhea. Several C. diff studies, which were sent recently have been negative and the patient has had no blood in her diarrhea. Presumed cause is Augmentin, which has been stopped. The patient has continued to eat freely and is passing diarrhea despite her complaints of 10/10 severe abdominal pain. A CT scan of her abdomen was ordered, but she refused to take oral or IV contrast. The results of this CT scan are pending and will be followed up by the new medical team.

What are the different medications that have been used on this patient for an infection

This is a 66-year-old man with spinal sarcoidosis and secondary paraplegia who presented with altered mental status, hypoxemic respiratory failure, and hypotension. He became hypotensive with intubation despite using etomidate with Levophed, and was started on vancomycin, gentamicin, Flagyl, and stress dose steroids with 1 liter of IV fluid. His urine was found to have Proteus, resistant to Macrobid, and Klebsiella, resistant to ampicillin, so he was started on Levophed with a systolic blood pressure in the 130's on 7 to 10 of Levophed and Levofloxacin was continued at 500 mg per day for a total 10-day course on in the evening, Regular Insulin sliding scale, levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. daily, to end on 10/16/2006 for a total course of 10 days. Urology replaced the suprapubic catheter and he was started on maintenance IV fluids until cleared to eat by Speech and Swallow. His home medications included Regular Insulin sliding scale a.c. and at bedtime, NPH 54 units in the morning and 68 units in the night, baclofen 10 mg t.i.d., amitriptyline 25 mg at bedtime, oxybutynin 5 mg t.i.d., gabapentin 300 mg t.i.d., iron sulfate 325 mg t.i.d., vitamin C 500 mg daily, magnesium 420 mg t.i.d., Coumadin 5 mg daily, ranitidine 150 mg b.i.d., and calcium 950 mg daily. He was given a head CT without contrast and a chest x-ray that showed no obvious infiltrate. His INR was found to be elevated and he had a suprapubic catheter obstruction with bilateral hydronephrosis and distended bladder. He was given Nexium and Coumadin for prophylaxis and was started on a low dose of captopril on 8/14/2006 for diabetes, and was started on 12.5 mg b.i.d. metoprolol on 0/14/2006 with good results. He was given NPH 20 b.i.d. through his hospitalization and Regular Insulin sliding scale. His creatinine came down to 1.2 and he was given the new beta-blocker and the ACE inhibitor as well as baclofen 10 mg p.o. t.i.d., Caltrate 600 Plus D one tablet p.o. b.i.d., ferrous sulfate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., gabapentin 300 mg p.o. t.i.d., NPH human insulin 54 units in the morning, 68 units in the evening, Regular Insulin sliding scale, levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. daily, magnesium oxide 420 mg p.o. t.i.d., metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., oxybutynin 5 mg p.o. t.i.d., Panafil ointment t.i.d., and ranitidine 500 mg p.o. b.i.d. He was admitted with severe sepsis due to UTI, suprapubic catheter/ostomy for 12 years, diabetes type II, right DVT, on Coumadin, status post chronic UTI, and CPAP at night for pneumonia with ceftazidime, levofloxacin, and vancomycin. His sugars were controlled with no complications and was able to maintain blood pressures in the 130's. His creatinine was initially 2.7, and after receiving IV fluids, it came down to 1.2. He likely had acute renal failure secondary to postrenal obstructive etiology. His INR was found to be therapeutic and he had half of his home Coumadin dose while he was on levofloxacin, so he was given half of dose and his INRs came down to a nadir of 1.7. At discharge, his hematocrit was 27.2, down from 29, which was closed to his baseline of 34, and his INR was 2.1. He was placed on maintenance IV fluids until cleared to eat by Speech and Swallow, and was given amitriptyline 25 mg p.o. at bedtime, vitamin C 500 mg p.o. daily, baclofen 10 mg p.o. t.i.d., Caltrate 600 Plus D one tablet p.o. b.i.d., ferrous sulfate

He was intubated with etomidate, succinylcholine and kept sedated with Versed and fentanyl. He received intraoperative vancomycin and levofloxacin as well as 2200 mL of lactated Ringer's. In an attempt to reverse anticoagulation, one unit of FFP was begun but then aborted due to hypotension, which resolved with epinephrine injection, likely due to transfusion reaction. Another unit of FFP was administered, with platelets also given at the request of the Plastic Surgery Team in light of aspirin and Plavix, which were continued due to the patient's cardiac stents. Despite bolus Lasix, the patient did develop CHF with symptomatic pulmonary edema and increased oxygen requirement, concomitantly becoming delirious. He developed hypertension refractory to beta-blockade, calcium channel blockers and IV ACE inhibitors, and was thus placed on a nitroglycerin drip, a furosemide drip with ginger blood product resuscitation to address bleeding and an elevated INR, responding well to this regimen and aggressive pulmonary toilet. The patient was advanced to clear liquids, on medications including Amiodarone 200 mg p.o. daily, Calcium, Colace 100 mg by mouth t.i.d., Coumadin alternating doses of 4 mg and 3 mg, Diltiazem CD 360 mg p.o. daily, Aspirin 81 mg p.o. daily, Folate 1 mg p.o. daily, Lisinopril 10 mg p.o. daily, Metamucil p.r.n., Clopidogrel 75 mg p.o. daily, Potassium, Protonix 40 mg p.o. daily, Simvastatin 80 mg p.o. daily, Synthroid 25 mcg p.o. daily, Thiamine 100 mg p.o. daily, Metoprolol SR 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Zyprexa 2.5 mg at bedtime p.r.n., and Vancomycin for MRSA-infected mesh. He does experience more significant delirium with morphine and less so with sparing Dilaudid p.r.n., and Haldol is written p.r.n. as needed. Weaning off nitroglycerin drip, nitro paste added, hematocrit 25%, one unit of packed red blood cells with Lasix and potassium to be given, RISS, and PICC line consult ordered for anticipated long-term vancomycin. Services following the patient include Medicine, Dr. Harcar, patient's PCP, Cardiology, Dr. Pagliari, and Plastic Surgery, Dr. Dunshie. Patient anticipated to be transferred to the floor on 9/28/06.

Why was ace inhibitors prescribed

The patient is a 42-year-old white man who presented with complaints of fever to 103 and chills, a productive cough, and groin pain lasting three days. At age three, he was diagnosed with Wilms' tumor on the left, which was resected and subsequently treated with wide field radiation, after which he developed radiation-induced tyroid cancer, at which time he underwent subtotal thyroidectomy. In May of 1997, he underwent living related donor renal transplantation for chronic renal failure, however, the postoperative course was complicated by cytomegalovirus infection, presenting with diarrhea and requiring hospitalization in February 1997. He was treated with ganciclovir and subsequently maintained on Cytovene. He had one fever spike on hospital day one and Levaquin was initiated on hospital day three along with intravenous antibiotics, after which he was switched to oral antibiotics, including Levaquin and Augmentin. His blood pressures were stabilized at 130/80 with the initiation of a second antihypertensive medication, Nifedipine XL, for which he was maintained for two days at 30 mg. Hematologic studies revealed that he was continued on anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation at 4 mg daily with an INR remaining in his goal parameters. His creatinine level was 2.5 and his cyclosporine level was 303 on admission, reaching a maximum of 19.8 on hospital day four. Endocrine studies revealed a TSH of 0.02, a T4 of 6.0, and a THPR of 1.47. The patient's pulmonary status improved on oxygen and on intravenous antibiotics, and all studies for atypical organisms were negative. Prior to discharge, the patient's pulmonary status had returned to baseline and had entirely resolved. The patient was discharged on Augmentin 250/125 mg t.i.d., Levaquin 250 mg q.d., CellCept 500 mg b.i.d., Neoral 100 mg b.i.d., Prednisone 10 mg q.d., Synthroid 125 mcg q.d., INP insulin 14 units subcu q.a.m., regular insulin subcu p.r.n., Axid 150 mg q.d., nadolol 80 mg q.d., nifedipine XL 30 mg q.d., Coumadin 4 mg q.d., and iron sulfate 300 mg q.d., and follow-up was scheduled for bone densitometry in July 1998, with Dr. Clinton Ardizone in January 1998, and with Dr. Win in March.

Has the patient ever had ganciclovir

This 70-year-old woman with a complex medical history, including cerebrovascular accident x two in 1980s without deficits, seizure history probably secondary to ETOH withdrawal, hypertension x 30 years, asthma, gout, and status post repair of subclavian artery stenosis in 1993, presented to the Dagha Medical Center with severe chest pain. A chest CT revealed a 2.3 x 2.8 cm lobulated mass in the right lower lobe involving the pleura, with extensive hilar and mediastinal constitutions consistent with prior granulomatous disease, and tests were positive for multiple precarinal and right peritracheal areas of adenopathy recent from metastatic disease. The patient was admitted to the Thoracic Surgery Service on 3/27/99 and taken to the Operating Room for a video assisted thorascopic right lower lobe lobectomy by Dr. Minick. Postoperatively, the patient did well, with no complications, and was followed by the Internal Medicine Service. The patient went into rapid atrial fibrillation postoperatively, and was successfully converted into a normal sinus rhythm using Diltiazem IV, which was converted to p.o. Diltiazem. The patient's postoperative course was largely unremarkable but for dysrhythmia, and the patient's pain was well controlled with p.o. pain medications, Percocet. Final pathology was read as squamous cell carcinoma, 4.0 cm., moderately differentiated with focal characterization with extensive necrosis. The patient was discharged to home with medications including Adalat 200 mg p.o. b.i.d., Zantac 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Magnesium Oxide 40 mg t.i.d., Ultram 300 mg q.d., Trazodone 100 mg q.h.s., Azmacort 80 mg p.r.n., aspirin 81 mg q.d., Dyazide 25 mg q.d., nose spray b.i.d., calcium chloride pills q.d., Colchicine 600 mg q.d., cyproheptadine hydrochloride 4 mg b.i.d. q.h.s., anticholesterol med., Albuterol nebulizers 250 mg q.4h., Allopurinol 300 mg q.d., Colchicine 0.6 mg q.d., cyproheptadine hydrochloride by mouth 400 mg q.d., Digoxin 0.125 mg q.d., Diltiazem 30 mg t.i.d., Colace 100 mg t.i.d., Lasix 40 mg p.o. q.d., Percocet 1-2 tablets p.o. q.4h. p.r.n., Dilantin 200 mg p.o. b.i.d., and Trazodone 100 mg p.o. q.h.s., with follow-up with Thoracic Surgery Service as well as with primary care physician and Cardiology as needed.

Has the patient ever been on albuterol nebulizers

This 79 year old male was admitted to OCMC on 8/9/05 with a 1 cm left renal stone that had caused left hip and flank pain with nausea and vomiting. His cardiologist, Dr. Cannizzo, was consulted and Coumadin was held for the operation. It was originally planned to reverse INR with FFP, but the patient felt throat tightness after 5 minutes of FFP transfusion and FFP was stopped. He then underwent laser lithotripsy and stent placement on 8/0/50 and tolerated the procedure well. Post-op, he had frequent PVC but cardiac enzyme was negative. On POD2, he tolerated regular diet and was ready to be discharged home with Bactrim and low dose Coumadin. He was also noticed to have an enlarged prostate and needs to follow up with Dr. Domebo for further management. The discharge medications included CAPSAICIN 0.025 % TP BID (apply to legs), LASIX (FUROSEMIDE) 40 MG PO QD, MICRONASE (GLYBURIDE) 2.5 MG PO QD, L-THYROXINE (LEVOTHYROXINE SODIUM) 50 MCG PO QD, POTENTIALLY SERIOUS INTERACTION: DIGOXIN & LEVOTHYROXINE SODIUM (Reason for override: home), PYRIDIUM (PHENAZOPYRIDINE HCL) 100 MG PO TID (PRN Other:bladder/stent pain), PROBENECID 1,500 MG PO BID, COZAAR (LOSARTAN) 75 MG PO QD (HOLD IF: sbp <100), FLOMAX (TAMSULOSIN) 0.4 MG PO QD, NEXIUM (ESOMEPRAZOLE) 40 MG PO QD, BACTRIM DS (TRIMETHOPRIM/SULFAMETHOXAZOLE DOU...) 1 TAB PO Q24H, and Number of Doses Required (approximate): 5. He was advised to follow up with his PCP for INR check and Coumadin dose adjustment, take Coumadin at 3 mg for tonight and tomorrow night, resume his regular Coumadin dose schedule, call his Coumadin clinic on Monday for follow up regarding to blood check and Coumadin dosage adjustment, no lifting more than 10 lbs., no driving while on narcotics, and call Urology office 865-655-3733 for appointment and questions.

Has this patient ever been treated with l-thyroxine ( levothyroxine sodium )

The patient is a 64 year-old gentleman with a history of chest discomfort, dyspnea on exertion and fatigue who was scheduled for a coronary artery bypass grafting. He had cardiac catheterization at Ryhoagberg Spisus Community Hospital on November, 1999 which demonstrated a 30% tapering lesion of the left main coronary artery, 70% proximal lesion of the left anterior descending coronary artery, 80% lesion distal to D1, 100% occlusion of his left circumflex and a 100% occlusion of his right coronary artery. On March, 1999, he underwent coronary artery bypass grafting times three with a left internal mammary artery to the left anterior coronary artery, saphenous vein graft to the aorta and a saphenous vein graft from the obtuse marginal to the aorta. His intraoperative course was uncomplicated and he was weaned to extubation and he was treated with stress steroids to prevent steroid withdrawal. He was taken back to the operating room for bleeding and was reintubated and was returned in good and stable condition to the intensive care unit on renal Dopamine. He was again extubated and was seen in consultation by the Gastrointestinal Service for a question of gastrointestinal bleed since there was a clot seen on the transesophageal echocardiogram probe at its withdrawal from his first surgery. The Gastrointestinal Service saw any evidence of any upper gastrointestinal bleed and he was maintained on H2 blockers. He was sent to the step down unit on routine postoperative day number two and his Captopril was increased for afterload reduction. He continued to improve and continued to have care for his respiratory situation with continued diuresis and nebulizer treatments and ambulation. He was discharged to the care of Dr. Lou Pineault at Potmend Rehabilitation Hospital, Moorlberl Street with medications including Prednisone 5 mg p.o. twice a day, Enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q. day, Zantac 150 mg p.o. twice a day, Niferex 150 mg p.o. twice a day, Atrovent nebulizer 0.5 mg four times a day, Timolol eye drops 0.5% one drop in both eyes twice a day, Atenolol 25 mg p.o. twice a day, Captopril 12.5 mg p.o. three times a day, Lasix 40 mg p.o. q. day, Potassium SR 20 mEq p.o. q. day, Simvastatin 40 mg p.o. q. day, and Ibuprofen 200-800 mg as needed for pain q.4-6h.

Has the patient taken any medications for pain management

Mr. Slunaker is a 56-year-old gentleman who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting x4 and was discharged to home in stable condition on 10/20/06. He presented to see Dr. Emory Bebeau in clinic with a warm and swollen left lower leg with redness and was placed on levofloxacin and vancomycin and had him admitted for left lower leg cellulitis. On admission, he was taking Toprol 25 mg daily, diltiazem 30 mg t.i.d., aspirin 325 mg daily, Lasix 40 mg daily, atorvastatin 40 mg daily, Tricor 145 mg daily, Zetia 10 mg daily, metformin 500 mg daily and potassium chloride slow release 20 mEq daily. Infectious disease was consulted and recommended discontinuing the vancomycin and levofloxacin and changing to Ancef 1 gm IV q.8h. and monitoring his wound. The patient remained afebrile and his white count trended down and leg wound improved on exam. On the day of discharge, he was evaluated by Dr. Manvelyan and cleared for discharge to home with Augmentin 875/125 mg b.i.d. for a total of 10 days, enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg daily, Lipitor 40 mg daily, diltiazem 30 mg t.i.d., Zetia 10 mg daily, Tricor 145 mg nightly, Diflucan 200 mg daily for one dose for a penile yeast infection, due to antibiotic use, Metformin 500 mg q.p.m., Toprol-XL 25 mg daily and oxycodone 5-10 mg q.4h. p.r.n. pain. He was instructed to monitor his leg wound and call if he had any increased weight, temperature greater than 101 degrees, any drainage from the wound, redness, swelling or change of any kind in his leg wound. He was cleared by Infectious Disease Service and discharged to home in stable condition and will follow up with Dr. Noah Schaffhauser on 5/7/06 at 1 o'clock, Dr. Aaron Phung in three-four days, his primary care physician, and his cardiologist, Dr. Jonathon Sopata in one to two weeks.

Has the patient had lasix in the past

The patient is a 64 year-old gentleman with a history of chest discomfort, dyspnea on exertion and fatigue who was scheduled for a coronary artery bypass grafting. He had cardiac catheterization at Ryhoagberg Spisus Community Hospital on November, 1999 which demonstrated a 30% tapering lesion of the left main coronary artery, 70% proximal lesion of the left anterior descending coronary artery, 80% lesion distal to D1, 100% occlusion of his left circumflex and a 100% occlusion of his right coronary artery.

Activity was limited to Walking as tolerated, and the patient was also given instructions to give ECASA on an empty stomach, and to avoid grapefruit with Zocor unless instructed otherwise. Upon discharge, the patient was given a Full Code status and was sent Home with a follow up appointment with Sandler on 11/28/02. The patient also underwent cardiac catheterization and stent placement of RCA with the medications Heparin, ASA, Plavix, Metoprolol, nitrates, ACE-I, statin, lasix, and nebs for wheezing, and was monitored for lytes. Upon discharge, the patient was stable and advised to follow up with Dr. Lidstone and Dr. Darlin for post-cath management and overall management of CHF and flash pulmonary edema.

has there been a prior metoprolol

Mr. Mauras is a 72-year-old man with history of stable angina, type 2 diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, former smoking history, and history of seizure disorder with cataracts. He had occasional anginal symptoms prior to discharge and took about two nitroglycerins per week. Over the past week, he had escalating chest pain requiring one nitroglycerin per day. The pain was relieved by rest and nitroglycerin. One week prior to admission, his digoxin was stopped and his amiodarone was decreased. His Plavix was stopped and his Coumadin was held. On the morning of admission, he had chest pain and received Lopressor, Enalapril, Lovenox treatment dose and a Plavix load in the ED. He was found to have flash pulmonary edema and in atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and was taken back to the catheterization lab and given four stents to his saphenous vein graft, OM1 with good resolution of his symptoms. He was transferred to the floor and was given an amiodarone load given his ejection fraction and increased ectopy on telemetry. His troponin had been trended down to the 0.2s by discharge and his beta-blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated to heart rate and blood pressure. Prior to anticipated discharge, he re-developed flash pulmonary edema secondary to atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and was re-loaded with digoxin. He was started on Mucomyst precath with good effect, had a difficult-to-place Foley, and was started on Flomax with good effect. His creatinine on discharge was 1.2, his metformin was held, and he was continued on Lantus with sliding scale insulin. He was given three units of packed red blood cells given his history of CAD and was prescribed with Amiodarone 200 mg, Enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg, Librium 10 mg, Colace 200 mg, Ferrous gluconate 324 mg, Lasix 40 mg, Nitroglycerin one tab, Dilantin 100 mg, Senna two tabs, Coumadin 3 mg, Lipitor 80 mg, Flomax 0.4 mg, Plavix 75 mg, Lantus 14 units, Metformin 500 mg, Ranitidine 150 mg, Digoxin 0.125 mg, Enalapril 10 mg, and Atenolol 50 mg, with follow-up appointments with his PCP, Dr. Kelley Hernon of Electrophysiology on 7/8/05, and Dr. Daft on 9/20/05, and INR checked on 8/4/05 or 7/8/05 with Coumadin adjusted accordingly.

Is there a mention of of enteric-coated aspirin usage/prescription in the record

Ms. Elter is an 83-year-old Spanish-speaking female with history of CAD, distant three-vessel CABG, CRI, NSTEMI in 4/20 and type II diabetes who presented to the ED with PND, dyspnea on exertion, and chest heaviness with no fevers or chills and no sick contacts, and EMS had given her Lasix and Nitrospray. She was briefly on a nonrebreather mask and responded to 80 mg of IV Lasix, with her potassium level reaching 5.8 and Kayexalate administered. Her medications included aspirin, metoprolol, allopurinol, valsartan, glipizide, Lipitor, and nifedipine, with her oxygen saturation eventually reaching the high 90s on a couple of liters of oxygen and her chest x-ray full set negative. She was treated with aspirin, beta-blockers, and statin for coronary artery disease, experienced a CHF flare with an elevated BNP which was managed with Lasix and Diuril, and her after load was reduced with ARB and her previous home calcium channel blocker was weaned off. She had a transient new atrial fibrillation and ventricular ectopy which resolved spontaneously, and was placed on humidified room air with nasal saline sprays and Afrin due to her coronary artery disease. She was transfused a total of 3 units to keep her hematocrit greater than 30 and Coumadin was initially started given her new onset of atrial fibrillation, but ultimately only aspirin was given after consideration of risks versus benefits. She had some constipation which was relieved with stool softeners and the patient received a PPI. Her DM-2 was managed with regular sliding scale insulin with good blood sugar control and her glipizide was held given her worsening creatinine clearance, and her allopurinol was changed to q.72h. from q.o.d. due to the creatinine clearance and she had some left heel and foot pain thought to be secondary to gout, which improved at the time of discharge. Her hematocrit dropped from 29 to 25, her guaiac was negative on the 3/20/04, and she was sent home with VNA support to follow up on her weights and fluid status and with home physical therapy. Her medications at the time of discharge included Lasix 20 mg p.o. q.d., Lipitor 80 mg p.o. q.d., Metoprolol sustained release 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d. p.r.n. for constipation, Allopurinol 100 mg p.o. q.72h., Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., and Valsartan 160 mg p.o. q.d.

Has this patient ever tried colace

Ms. Heit is a 67-year-old female who received a heart transplant in March 2006 and was transferred from an outside hospital after sustaining a right hip fracture. On admission, her plain films revealed a nondisplaced right femoral fracture and her EKG showed sinus tachycardia.

She had a history of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, which was treated with fondaparinux daily prior to the procedure and then discharged on aspirin for four weeks postprocedure. She underwent a dynamic hip screw procedure which was uncomplicated and allowed her to begin weightbearing on postoperative day 1, and was transfused with 2 units of packed red blood cells on the day after surgery with appropriate hematocrit rise. She received additional 2 units of packed red blood cells prior to discharge. DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS: Tylenol 650 mg every four hours as needed for pain, Protonix 40 mg daily, Pravachol 40 mg daily, Neoral (cyclosporine) 150 mg b.i.d., diltiazem extended release 360 mg daily, Caltrate plus D one tablet daily, Neoral (cyclosporine) 150 mg b.i.d., diltiazem extended release 360 mg daily, Fosamax 70 mg weekly, Dulcolax p.r. 10 mg as needed for constipation, and oxycodone 5-10 mg every six hours as needed for pain. She will continue her home medication regimen, be maintained on aspirin 325 mg for four weeks to prevent clot formation postsurgery, and take oxycodone as needed for pain. She has a followup appointment with orthopedic surgery, and will also be closely followed by transplant clinic in the Angeles with a walker and should continue aspirin 325 mg daily.

Has the patient ever taken asa for their ischemia.

The patient was admitted on 4/20/2006 with an Altered Mental Status. A team meeting was held on 3/25/06 and the patient was started on 250 mg b.i.d. of Depakote and Haldol was reduced to just Monday-Wednesday-Friday 1 mg before hemodialysis and 1 mg p.r.n. agitation. On 0/16/06, the patient was diagnosed with pneumonia and started on ceftriaxone IV and Flagyl, which was switched to cefpodoxime and Flagyl for discharge. The patient began to spike fevers on 11/29/06 and was started on antibiotics of ceftriaxone and Flagyl, which was switched to cefpodoxime and Flagyl for discharge, and the cefpodoxime should be dosed after dialysis on Monday-Wednesday-Friday. In terms of endocrine, the patient ultimately discontinued on a regimen of 7 units of Lantus q.a.m. and q.p.m. with 5 units aspart q.a.c. breakfast and lunch and 4 units of aspart q.a.c. dinner. His sliding scale was very light and he is only to be covered with one to two units of aspart during the night as insulin stacks in this patient very easily. At the time of discharge, the patient's fingersticks were well controlled in the 100-200 range and his mental status was A&amp;O x3 and appropriate.

Was the patient ever given medication for wheezing

This 64-year-old male with a history of coronary artery disease, CHF, EF of 15%, status post AVR, and NSTEMI initially presented to outside hospital with chief complaint of shortness of breath and was found to have a BNP of 747 as well as a troponin I of 0.43. He was diuresed, started on Carvedilol and improved, and placed on a heparin drip. His medications on admission included Aspirin 81, Lisinopril 20, Plavix 75, Verapamil 240 sustained release, Gemfibrozil 600 b.i.d., Nystatin 500 b.i.d., Paxil 20 daily, Glipizide 10 daily, Coumadin 4 prior to admission to outside hospital, Carvedilol 6.25 daily, heparin drip and Spironolactone. During his hospital stay, he was continued on Aspirin, Plavix, beta-blocker and ACE inhibitor, which were titrated to effect, started on a statin and continued on Niaspan, and maintained on a nicotine patch. He was also prescribed Spironolactone 25 mg p.o. daily, Atorvastatin 80 mg daily, Niaspan 0.5 gm p.o. twice daily, and Coumadin 5 mg p.o. at night. The patient's diabetes was controlled with regular insulin and placed back on his oral hypoglycemics, which were discontinued on admission and was encouraged to stop smoking. He had runs of ectopy and SVT, so was placed on a heparin drip. Left heart cath revealed wall defect consistent with a right coronary artery infarct and the patient was continued on Spironolactone. He was discharged in a stable condition on Aspirin 325 p.o. daily, Lisinopril 4 mg p.o. daily, Nicotine patch 14 mg per day topical, Spironolactone 25 mg p.o. daily, Paxil 25 mg p.o. daily, Atorvastatin 80 mg daily, Niaspan 0.5 gm p.o. twice daily, Carvedilol 12.5 mg p.o. twice daily, Plavix 75 mg daily, Gemfibrozil 900 mg p.o. twice daily and Coumadin 5 mg p.o. at night, with instructions to follow up with PCP and Cardiology as well as EP, to check his daily weights and report any increases to his PCP, and to arrange to have his INR drawn on 6/21/06 and follow-up INRs to be drawn every seven days.

Logan Czaplinski, an 833-08-42-8 patient, was admitted on 1/27/2001 and discharged on 5/18/2001 to his home with a prescription of ASA (Acetylsalicylic Acid) 81 MG PO QD, Allopurinol 300 MG PO QD, Digoxin 0.25 MG PO QD, Folic Acid 1 MG PO QD, Lasix (Furosemide) 80 MG PO BID, Ativan (Lorazepam) 1 MG PO BID PRN anxiety or insomnia, Lopressor (Metoprolol Tartrate) 12.5 MG PO BID, Thiamine (Thiamine HCl) 100 MG PO QD, Coumadin (Warfarin Sodium) 5 MG PO QHS, Simvastatin and Warfarin, Levofloxacin 250 MG PO QD starting in AM (7/21), Insulin 70/30 (Human) 30 units SC BID, Imdur (Isosorbide Mononit.(SR)) 60 MG PO QD, KCL Slow Rel. 20 mEq x 1 PO BID, Allegra (Fexofenadine HCl) 60 MG PO QD, and Levofloxacin 250 MG PO QD Starting in AM (7/21). An override was added on 10/10/01 by Kent R. Kazee, MD with Potentially Serious Interactions: Aspirin & Warfarin, Simvastatin & Warfarin, and Levofloxacin & Warfarin. Food/Drug Interaction Instructions were also given. This 60-year-old male patient with ischemic CMP and AFib was started on Coumadin 5 weeks ago and was cardioverted via the AICD last Tuesday. He then developed SOB and fever, so he went to the local ED and was given Lasix and Rocephin. His WBC was elevated at 12.2 and he was sent to LMH where he had a low grade fever and required FM O2. He was treated empirically with Levofloxacin, diuresed, and assessed for underlying rhythm. His CXR showed interval improvement and his BCXs from LWMH were negative at 3 days. He was discharged on PO diuretics and a 14-day course of Levofloxacin, with ASA 81 MG PO QD, Allopurinol 300 MG PO QD, Digoxin 0.25 MG PO QD, Folic Acid 1 MG PO QD, Lopressor 12.5 MG PO BID, Thiamine 100 MG PO QD, Coumadin 5 MG PO QHS, Simvastatin and Warfarin, Levofloxacin 250 MG PO QD starting in AM (7/21), and Ativan 1 MG PO BID PRN anxiety or insomnia. He should seek immediate medical attention if he develops chest pain, SOB, lightheadedness, fever, chills, palpitations, or falls.

Is the patient currently or have they ever taken lasix ( furosemide )

The patient is a 70-year-old woman with a history of Congestive Heart Failure due to diastolic dysfunction, Crohn's colitis, right breast carcinoma, diabetes mellitus, obstructive sleep apnea, gastroesophageal reflux disease, hypercholesterolemia, and osteoarthritis. She was admitted with volume overload for diuresis, having developed fluid retention with gradual worsening, shortness of breath and lower extremity edema. During the hospitalization, she was started on IV Lasix along with Zaroxolyn and oral torsemide, and heparin while starting anticoagulation with Coumadin. The patient was also treated for a urinary tract infection with IV levofloxacin, which was subsequently changed to p.o. cefixime which she completed a five-day course of. Her diabetes mellitus was maintained with insulin subcutaneous injections. Upon discharge she was prescribed Vitamin C 500 mg p.o. q.d., ferrous sulfate 300 mg p.o. q.d., insulin Lente subcutaneous 30 U q.h.s., insulin Regular subcutaneous 30 U q.h.s., Synthroid 200 mcg p.o. q.d., Zaroxolyn 5 mg p.o. q.a.m., tamoxifen 20 mg p.o. q.h.s., Vitamin E 400 U p.o. q.d., Coumadin 5 mg p.o. q.h.s., multivitamins 1 tablet p.o. q.d., Zocor 40 mg p.o. q.h.s., insulin 70/30 35 U subcu. q.a.m., Neurontin 300 mg p.o. q.a.m., 100 mg p.o. at 2:00 p.m., 300 mg p.o. q.h.s., Serevent inhaled 1 puff b.i.d., torsemide 100 p.o. q.a.m., Trusopt 1 drop b.i.d., Flonase nasal 1-2 sprays b.i.d., Xalatan 1 drop ocular q.h.s., Pulmicort inhaled 1 puff b.i.d., Celebrex 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Avandia 4 mg p.o. q.d., Hyzaar 12.5 mg/50 mg 1 tablet p.o. q.d., Nexium 20 mg p.o. q.d., potassium chloride 20 mEq p.o. b.i.d., Suprax 400 mg p.o. q.d. x4 days, albuterol inhaled 2 puffs q.i.d. p.r.n. wheezing, miconazole 2% powder applied topically on skin b.i.d. for itching. During the hospitalization, she responded with a brisk diuresis over the course of the admission, resulting in a 5.2 kg weight decline and estimated 15 liters of fluid removed. Atrial fibrillation was noted and anticoagulated with IV heparin and Coumadin, reaching a therapeutic INR of 2.5 within 4-5 days. Urinalysis showed evidence of an urinary tract infection with 20-30 white blood cells and was leukocyte esterase positive, and a urine culture grew out E. coli, which was subsequently determined to be resistant to levofloxacin and the patient had been started on IV levofloxacin and subsequently changed to p.o. cefixime. The patient completed a five-day course of p.o. cefixime while in the hospital and was discharged on that medicine to complete a 10-day course. Of note, the initial symptoms the patient presented with indicated a bacterial urinary tract infection. Subsequent urine culture grew out E. coli, which was subsequently determined to be resistant to levofloxacin. The patient has a long history of diabetes requiring insulin treatment and was followed by an endocrinologist at the Kingnix Lowemar W.kell Medical Center, and her blood sugars were maintained with insulin subcutaneous injections. Upon discharge, the patient was prescribed Vitamin C 500 mg p.o. q.d., ferrous sulfate 300 mg p.o. q.d., insulin Lente subcutaneous 30 U q.h.s., insulin Regular subcutaneous 30 U q.h.s., Synthroid 200 mcg p.o. q.d., Zaroxolyn 5 mg p.o. q.a.m., tamoxifen 20 mg p.o.

Has this patient ever been on xalatan

Mr. Lumadue is a 68-year-old man with significant cardiac history and vascular disease who came in with a chief complaint of hip pain after a mechanical fall. At that time, his hospital course was complicated by a non-Q wave MI, and Cardiology recommended medical management with Lopressor. An echocardiogram revealed an ejection fraction of 45%, and Dobutamine MIBI revealed a severe fixed perfusion defect in the inferoposterior and inferoseptal left ventricle with an ejection fraction of 26%. His medications included HCTZ 50 mg PO q.d., enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg PO q.d., Zestril 20 mg PO q.d., glyburide 5 mg PO q.d., multivitamins, and cough medicine PRN. Upon admission, his vital signs were afebrile, temperature 97.3, tachycardia, heart rate 106, blood pressure 162/77, oxygenation 94% on room air. X-rays of his left pelvis and femur revealed fracture of the left intertrochanter and subtrochanteric fracture with lesser trochanteric fracture intact by 3 cm, less than five degrees angulation. His femoral head was reduced. During his hospital course, the patient was started on a beta blocker, Ace inhibitor, and continued on an aspirin. He was aggressively diuresed with Lasix for diuresis and was treated with vancomycin, Flagyl, and levofloxacin for presumed aspiration pneumonia. He was continued on Lovenox 60 mg subcu. b.i.d. for prophylaxis against DVT post-hip surgery to continue for six months minimal followed by orthopedic surgery, and restarted on oral hypoglycemics prior to discharge in addition to sliding scale insulin. He was discharged on standing 20 mEq of K-Dur q.d., lisinopril 5 mg PO q.d., hold for systolic blood pressure less than 100, Lasix 100 mg PO q.d., Lovenox 60 mg subcu. b.i.d. x6 months, glipizide 2.5 mg PO q.d., sliding scale insulin, Nexium 20 mg PO q.d., Silvadene wet-to-dry dressing, DuoDerm to left lower leg wound and change q.3 days, and Lopressor 12.5 mg PO t.i.d., hold for systolic blood pressure less than 100. He was maintained on Nexium prophylaxis in the setting of his anticoagulation and on two liters of nasal cannula oxygen at the time of transfer to rehab. Upon discharge, he was instructed to follow up with his primary care physician, orthopedic surgery, cardiology, and pulmonary medicine within two weeks, with labs for a metabolic panel, magnesium, and calcium q.o.d. and physical therapy as needed, with a weightbearing status of non-weightbearing on the left lower extremity and weightbearing as tolerated on the right lower extremity.

Why is the patient on duoderm

The patient is a 76-year-old female with a history of mitral regurgitation, congestive heart failure, recurrent UTIs, and uterine prolapse who presented with chills and hypotension and was admitted to the Medical ICU for treatment of septic shock. Mean arterial pressures were kept above 65 with Levophed and antibiotics were changed to penicillin 3 million units IV q.4h. and gentamicin 50 mg IV q.8h. An ATEE on 10/19 showed severe mitral regurgitation with posterior leaflet calcifications and linear density concerning for endocarditis, for which a PICC line was placed on 1/19 for a six-week course of penicillin 3 million units IV q.4h. and two-week course of gentamicin 50 mg IV q.8h. until 2/25. The patient was initially treated with Levophed for her hypotension until 11/0, and was placed on Levofloxacin and Vancomycin to treat Gram-positive cocci bacteremia and UTI. She was maintained on telemetry and was found to be a normal sinus rhythm with ectopy, including short once of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia. She was started on Lopressor 12.5 mg t.i.d. on 3/18, and this was increased to 25 mg b.i.d. at discharge, with her heart rates continuing to be between the 70s and the 90s, however, with less episodes of ectopy. Aspirin was given, and Lipitor was initially held for an initial transaminitis presumed to be secondary to shock liver. She had guaiac positive stools in the medical ICU, her hematocrit was stable around 33%, and her iron studies suggested anemia of chronic disease with possibly overlying iron deficiency. She had a normal random cortisol level of 35.3, and her Hemoglobin A1c was 6.5, so she was maintained thereafter only on insulin sliding scale and rarely required any coverage. The patient was kept on Lovenox and Protonix and her DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS include Aspirin 81 mg daily, iron sulfate 325 mg daily, gentamicin sulfate 50 mg IV q.8h. until 2/25 for a two-week course, penicillin G potassium 3 million units IV q.4h. until 0/12 for a six-week course, Lopressor 25 mg b.i.d., Caltrate plus D2 tablets p.o. daily, Lipitor 10 mg daily, and Protonix 40 mg daily. She was discharged to rehabilitation at Acanmingpeerra Virg Tantblu Medical Center in order to be able to get her antibiotic therapy, and her physicians will attempt to add the ACE back onto her medical regimen for better afterload reduction as her blood pressure tolerates, and potentially they will add her back on to the Lasix as well. She will require weekly lab draws to check her electrolytes and CBC while she is on the antibiotics.

has there been a prior humalog insulin

This is a 46-year-old morbidly obese female with a history of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus complicated by BKA on two prior occasions, who was admitted to the MICU with BKA, urosepsis, and a non-Q-wave MI. On presentation to the Emergency Department, her vital signs were notable for a blood pressure of 189/92, pulse rate of 120, respiratory rate of 20, and an O2 sat of 90%. She was given insulin, sublingual nitroglycerin x three, 4 mg of morphine, 5 mg of Lopressor, and started on a heparin drip and IV antibiotics, and admitted to the MICU for further management. Her past medical history included insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus for how many years, positive ethanol use, approximately one drink per week, and denied IV drug use or other illicit drug use. She was placed on an insulin drip and hydrated with intravenous fluids, with improvement, and eventually transitioned to NPH with insulin sliding scale coverage. Despite escalating her dose of NPH up to 65 U subcu b.i.d. on the day of discharge, she continued to have elevated blood sugars >200 and required coverage with insulin sliding scale. This issue will need to be addressed as an outpatient. She was also placed on cefotaxime for gram negative coverage, with both her blood cultures and urine cultures growing out E. coli which were sensitive to cefotaxime and gentamycin. As she initially continued to be febrile and continued to have positive blood cultures, one dose of gentamycin was given for synergy, and she was eventually transitioned to p.o. levofloxacin and will take 7 days of p.o. levofloxacin to complete a total 14-day course of antibiotics for urosepsis. She was initially placed on aspirin, heparin, and a beta blocker, and once her creatinine normalized, an ACE inhibitor was also added. Heparin was discontinued once the concern for PE was alleviated, and her beta blocker and ACE inhibitor were titrated up for a goal systolic blood pressure of <140 and a pulse of <70. On admission, the patient was on several pain medicines, including amitriptyline, Flexeril, and Valium for reported history of sciatica and low back pain, which were discontinued and she was placed on Neurontin for likely diabetic neuropathy. She was also placed on GI prophylaxis with Carafate and treated symptomatically with Imodium p.r.n. diarrhea. The patient was discharged with enteric coated aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., NPH Humulin insulin 65 U subcu b.i.d., human insulin sliding scale: for blood sugars 151-200 give 4 U, for blood sugars 201-250 give 6 U, for blood sugars 251-300 give 8 U, for blood sugars 301-350 give 10 U, Imodium 2 mg p.o. q. 6 hrs. p.r.n. diarrhea, Niferex 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., nitroglycerin 1/150 one tab sublingual q. 5 min. x 3 p.r.n. chest pain, multivitamin one tab p.o. q.d., simvastatin 10 mg p.o. q.h.s., Neurontin 600 mg p.o. t.i.d., levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. q.d. x 5 days, Toprol XL 400 mg p.o. q.d., lisinopril 40 mg p.o. q.d. The patient was evaluated by the physical therapist, who noted her to walk around the hospital without significant difficulty.

Why did the patient need gentamycin

The 43 year old male patient presented with atypical chest pain radiating to the left arm, diaphoresis, nausea, and mild shortness of breath. An EKG with T-wave inversion (TWI) concerning for anterolateral ischemia was also noted, and a Troponin I at ASH was negative (0.04 and 0.05) but the pain persisted, requiring a nitroglycerin (NTG) drip. The patient was admitted to the ward and started on ECASA (Aspirin Enteric Coated) 81 mg PO qd, ferrous sulfate 325 mg PO tid, furosemide (Lasix) 60 mg PO bid, hydralazine HCL 90 mg PO tid, labetalol HCL 600 mg PO tid, nitroglycerin 1/150 (0.4 mg) 1 tab SL q5min x 3 PRN chest pain hold if SBP <100, claritin (loratadine) 10 mg PO qd, losartan (Cozaar) 100 mg PO qd hold if SBP 95, metformin 850 mg PO bid, and Vytorin 10/40 (ezetimibe 10 mg - simvastatin 40 mg) 1 tab PO qd. An Adenosine MIBI showed LV dilation with an ejection fraction of 44%. The patient remained chest pain free overnight and the NTG drip was tapered, with hydralazine and labetalol increased. The patient was discharged with instructions to follow up with Dr. Pulfrey for BP check within 1 week, take discharge medications as prescribed, comply with a low cholesterol, low fat, and <2g sodium diet, and seek medical attention for worsening chest pain, shortness of breath, and marked weight gain, not to resume the Norvasc or Enalapril until instructed to by Dr. Kozola, and to consider further w/u anemia.

has the patient used ferrous sulfate in the past

MAZINGO, THOMAS 281-40-01-4 was admitted for CHF and discharged on 7/14/04. The patient, a 63 year old female with a history of resistant diabetes, morbid obesity, coronary artery disease, and hypertension, presented with one week of shortness of Breath. Examination revealed a respiratory rate of 22, oxygen saturation of 98% on 2L, bibasilar crackles, decreased breath sounds, scattered wheezes, and a normal heart exam. Labs and studies were notable for cardiac enzymes negative x3, BNP marginally elevated at 191, glucose of 286, A1c elevated at 10.3, and TSH of 3.847. An elevated PTT of 64.9 of uncertain significance was also found. The patient was ruled out for ischemia and given low-salt and ADA 1800 diets. She was prescribed Tylenol (Acetaminophen) 650 mg PO Q4H PRN Headache, ECASA (Aspirin Enteric Coated) 325 mg PO QD, Colace (Docusate Sodium) 100 mg PO BID, Lasix (Furosemide) 80 mg PO BID starting today, Insulin NPH Human 110 units SC QAM, NTG 1/150 (Nitroglycerin 1/150 (0.4 mg)) 1 Tab SL Q5min x 3 PRN Chest Pain, Verapamil Sustained Release 240 mg PO BID, Flovent (Fluticasone Propionate) 220 mcg Inh BID, Diovan (Valsartan) 160 mg PO QD, Vioxx (Rofecoxib) 12.5 mg PO QD, Duoneb (Albuterol and Ipratropium Nebulizer) QID with Q2H Albuterol O/N, Lipitor (Atorvastatin) 10 mg PO QD, Prilosec (Omeprazole) 20 mg PO QD, Albuterol Nebulizer 2.5 mg Neb Q2H PRN Shortness of Breath, 3/0.5 mg Inh Q6H PRN Shortness of Breath, and Heparin 5000 SC TID for DVT prophylaxis, as well as 80 IV Lasix in the ED and put out 1200 cc.

Mrs. Wetterauer is a 54-year-old female with coronary artery disease status post inferior myocardial infarction in March of 1997, with sick sinus syndrome, status post permanent pacemaker placement, and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation controlled with amiodarone; also with history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension. On 1/11, she experienced severe respiratory distress and was unable to be intubated on the field. She was ultimately intubated at Sirose, and an echocardiogram showed an ejection fraction of 25 to 30 percent with flat CKs. She was diuresed six liters and a right heart catheterization showed a pulmonary artery pressure of 40/15, wedge of 12, and cardiac output of 5.2. Hemodynamics indicated her cardiac output was dependent on her SVR. At the outside hospital, a right upper lobe infiltrate was noted and she was given gentamicin 250 mg times one, and clindamycin 600 mg. She was diagnosed with pneumonia and treated with clindamycin, which caused resolution of her white count. She was also given Solu-Medrol 40 mg intravenous q.6 hours for possible asthma, and had an increase in her Lasix and lisinopril dose, as well as her amiodarone. Her last admission was on 10/6 for atypical chest pain, and she was placed on Bactrim Double Strength b.i.d. times a total of seven days, as well as Lovenox 60 mg b.i.d., aspirin 325 p.o. q.d., lisinopril 40 mg p.o. b.i.d., digoxin 0.25, Lopressor 100 mg b.i.d., Zantac, Albuterol, Flovent, Solu-Medrol, and amiodarone 300 mg once a day.

What was the indication for my patient's insulin

Ms. Halnon is a 67-year-old female with multiple medical comorbidities and a past medical history significant for cardiac transplant in 1993, and hip replacement in July 2005, complicated by wound infection, and need for prolonged rehabilitation who presented from Port Medical Center to Ephma Mersources Ni Memorial Hospital with three days of progressive worsening shortness of breath. Upon admission, her mental status was borderline, but it improved with discontinuation of standing analgesic and decreasing of her clonazepam. A head CT showed no acute processes. She had a right upper arm cellulitis and urinary tract infection on screening urinalysis. She was anemic and was found to be vancomycin resistant Enterococcus positive, but repeated cultures demonstrated MRSA negative. For her heart failure, she was diuresed with IV and transitioned to oral torsemide and they entered discharge dose of torsemide 200 mg p.o. twice per day. She was given a five-day course of levofloxacin (used to address recurrent UTI) and then a two-day course of Ancef, her cellulitis was initially treated with levofloxacin and transitioned to Bactrim based on antibiogram sensitivities. A long-term Foley was placed for comfort with catheter in place. While on Bactrim for her UTI, her creatinine rose from 1.5 to 1.6, but cleared with this regimen. For her chronic anemia, the patient was continued on iron (which was increased to three times per day) and darbepoetin, folate was added. She was asymptomatic from her chronic anemia. She was given two units of packed red blood cells in March, 2005, and two more units on February, 2006. Her admission weight was 133 kg and her creatinine was 1.6. At discharge, she was hemodynamically stable, afebrile, and breathing comfortably on three liters of oxygen. Her discharge medications included Vitamin C 500 mg twice per day, Imuran 25 mg daily, PhosLo 667 mg three times per day, clonazepam 0.25 mg twice daily, iron sulfate 325 mg three times per day, folate 1 mg daily, Dilaudid 2 mg every six hours as needed for pain, lactulose 30 mL four times per day as needed for constipation, prednisone 5 mg every morning, Sarna topical every day apply to affected areas, multivitamin daily, Coumadin 2.5 mg daily, goal INR 2 to 3, zinc sulfate 220 mg daily, Ambien 5 mg before bed as needed for insomnia, torsemide 200 mg by mouth two times per day, cyclosporine 50 mg twice daily, Colace 100 mg twice daily, insulin NPH 14 units every evening, insulin NPH 46 units every morning, esomeprazole 20 mg once per day, DuoNeb 3/0.5 mg inhaled every six hours as needed for shortness of breath, Aranesp 50 mcg subcutaneously once per week, NovoLog sliding scale before meals, Lexapro 20 mg once per day, Maalox one to two tablets every six hours as needed for upset stomach, and Lipitor 20 mg once per day. Outstanding issues include following INR the goal of 2 to 3, following weight and clinical signs of volume overload, following up on loose stools for possible Clostridium difficile infection, and following clinical signs for evidence of urinary tract infection treating with antibiotics as necessary.

What was the dosage prescribed of iron sulfate

Ms. Veltin is a 72 year old woman with a PAST MEDICAL HISTORY significant for coronary artery disease, diabetes, and hypertension. On admission, her CURRENT MEDICATIONS included Atenolol 50 b.i.d., hydrochlorothiazide 25 q.d., Lisinopril 40 q.d., simvastatin 10 q.d., metformin 500 q.d., and NPH 43 q.a.m. and 24 q.p.m., while her PAST MEDICAL HISTORY was significant for diabetes for which she took insulin and checked her sugars at home which ran 170 range to 200 range. During admission, she was maintained on metformin, her blood pressure was controlled with Lisinopril at 40 milligrams, she was given nifedipine extended release 120 q.d., and her sugars at home on her regimen of 43 q.a.m. and 24 q.p.m. were in control. She was also maintained on her aspirin and simvastatin, and given Lasix 20 q.d. times seven days and four liters through admission with Lasix at 40 intravenously. Her cardiovascular evaluation showed three vessel disease, diastolic dysfunction, and pulmonary artery systolic pressure of 36 plus RA, but no wall motion abnormalities. Her blood pressure regimen was advanced with the addition of Atenolol 50 b.i.d. and titration up to 120 milligrams q.d. of nifedipine extended release. For congestive heart failure, she diuresed approximately four liters through admission with Lasix at 40 intravenously and would be discharged on a seven day course of Lasix at 20 p.o. q.d. Pulmonary evaluation showed hypoxia on admission to 85% on room air, D-dymer greater than 1000, V/Q scan low probability, negative lower extremity noninvasives, chest CT without interstitial lung disease, and pulmonary function tests consistent with restrictive picture. Endocrine evaluation revealed that she was maintained on metformin during admission and also on half of her dose of NPH given her decreased p.o. intake. She took insulin and checked her sugars at home, which were 170 to 200, and she was discharged on her normal regimen of 43 q.a.m. and 24 q.p.m. of NPH.

What treatments has patient been on for diabetes in the past

Ms. Wentz, a 51-year-old female, was found to have an adenomatous polyp at the ileocecal valve, which was not amenable to colonoscopy resection. She has a past history of pulmonary embolism, diabetes mellitus type 2, obesity, hypercholesterolemia, probable COPD, hypertension, and moderate obstructive sleep apnea. The patient also has a long history of smoking, but quit five months before her admission. The patient is allergic to IV erythromycin, which causes rash. She was taking Lipitor 10 mg once a day, Metformin 500 mg in the morning, 100 mg in the afternoon, Coumadin 11 mg, and Tylenol p.r.n. for joint pain. The patient's Coumadin was withheld a week before operation and was placed on heparin. Her Coumadin was restarted on 7/3/05 and on her home dose of 11 mg. Her INR steadily increased over the course of her hospital stay up to 1.7 at her discharge. The patient was on metformin for her diabetes mellitus, which was withheld on the day of her surgery, and was placed on Regular Insulin sliding scale. She also complained of white creamy discharge from her vagina on 9/29/05 and miconazole suppository was prescribed for five days. At the time of discharge, her discharge from her vagina had resolved. The patient was discharged with DuoNeb 3/0.5 mg q.6h, Coumadin 12 mg p.o. nightly, Lipitor 10 mg p.o. once a day, Metformin p.o. 500 mg in the morning, 1000 mg in the afternoon, Colace 100 mg twice a day p.o., and Dilaudid 2-4 mg q.3h. p.o. The patient will arrange to have her INR draw on 1/1/05 with follow-up INRs to be drained every two days and INR will be followed by her primary care physician, Dr. Afonso. The patient is full code.

What medications have been previously used for prevention of joint pain.

A 63-year-old male with a history of CAD (Coronary Artery Disease) and two prior MIs (Myocardial Infarctions) presented with atypical chest pain and was admitted with a 100% LCx lesion unable to be stented. He was on medical management with Atenolol, Ace-I, and Aspirin (ECASA) 325 mg PO QD until the day of admission when he woke up with left arm and shoulder pain reminiscent of an old MI. Attempts at relief with nitroglycerin 1/150 (0.4 mg) 1 TAB SL q5min x 3 were unsuccessful, so he called EMS. In the ED, EKG and TnI were flat and he was started on heparin for unstable angina. Serial CKs were flat and he had no recurrence of chest pain in the hospital. He is to follow-up with Dr. Tollner with the possibility of ETT-MIBI as an outpatient. Discharge medications included Wellbutrin (Bupropion HCl) 200 mg PO QD, Colace (Docusate Sodium) 100 mg PO BID, FESO4 (Ferrous Sulfate) 300 mg PO BID, and Zocor (Simvastatin) 40 mg PO QHS. Additional instructions included taking the increased dose of Zestril 10 mg PO QD, making a follow-up appointment with Dr. Cyrus in the next week or two, and returning to the hospital if experiencing an increase in chest pain or shortness of breath at rest. The discharge condition was stable and he was discharged home with instructions to do an ETT-MIBI as an outpatient, check K and Cr within 1-2 weeks, and get a referral to GI and EGD as an outpatient.

has the patient had colace ( docusate sodium )

The patient is a 60 year-old woman with adult onset diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and elevated cholesterol admitted with chest pain, bradycardia, and decreased blood pressure. When her blood pressure is elevated, she takes Nifedipine and the pain became three to four out of ten, so she took Cardizem without relief and called EMS. The pain was relieved with the EMTs gave nitroglycerin times two and they found her to have blood pressure of 190/100, heart rate 76, and normal sinus rhythm. They gave two nitrospray, blood pressure decreased to 150/80, heart rate 76, and after two minutes in the vehicle, she had sinus bradycardia at 30-40, blood pressure 120/80. She was given 0.5 mg of Atropine times one without any affect and brought to the hospital with a systolic blood pressure of 100, then suddenly she had bradycardia with heart rate of 30-40 and systolic blood pressure of 75. She was given intravenous fluids and Atropine 0.5 mg times one which increased her blood pressure systolic to 100 and her heart rate increased to 60. On admission, she was given Nifedipine 10 mg p.r.n. for elevated blood pressure, Lasix 20 mg q. day, Glucotrol 15 mg q. day, Cardizem 300 mg q. day, Coumadin 3.75 mg q. day, Colace 100 mg b.i.d., and Iron 325 mg q. day. On discharge, she was given Aspirin 325 mg q. day, Atenolol 50 mg q. day, Lisinopril 10 mg q. day, Pravachol 20 mg q. day, Glucotrol XL 15 mg q. AM, Lasix 20 mg q. day, and Nitroglycerin tablets sublingual p.r.n. chest pain. She underwent exercise tolerance test on a standard Bruce protocol and angiography which showed left main OK, LAD proximal 20%, D2 60%, ostial 90% mid, left circumflex mid 30%, OM2 distal 60-70%, OM1 mild diffuse disease. She underwent PTCA of her diagonal two which went from 90% to 0% stenosis and she received Heparin overnight and the sheaths were pulled on the following day. She is to follow-up in the VERAREA UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL Clinic with Dr. Van Rothenberg.

What is the dosage of the medication the patient was prescribed for stenosis

The patient is a 54-year-old man with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy who presents with weight gain, weakness, and azotemia. He was admitted with decompensated heart failure and was treated with dobutamine, seretide, and diuretics with good effect, functioning on ACE inhibitor. Two weeks prior to presentation, Digoxin 0.125 mg q.o.d., Imdur 30 mg q.d., hydralazine 25 mg t.i.d., torsemide was being held, Coumadin 1 mg q.d., carvedilol 3.125 mg b.i.d., allopurinol 100 mg q.d., Glucophage, and glyburide were administered. On 2/19/03, Diuril was added to his regimen and his creatinine was noted to increase from 2.6 to 3.6 and diuretics were subsequently held. The patient was loaded on amiodarone, unfortunately still required low dose dobutamine to maintain his cardiac output and was transferred back to the floor and continued to have decrease urine output on maximal diuretic doses and ionotropes. On 6/8/03, the renal surgery recommended that the dobutamine be stopped in order to enhance renal perfusion and Lasix be increased to 80 mg per hour. He has beyond less invasive measures such as digoxin and ACE inhibitors, and he is now dobutamine dependent dobutamine between 1 and 2.5 mcg/kg/minute to maintain his cardiac output, currently loaded on amiodarone without any further events. He has a chronic osteomyelitis, currently in a six-week course of ceftazidime, vancomycin, Flagyl, and Diflucan for complicated osteomyelitis, end date is on 2/30/03. He has diabetes and was on oral hypoglycemic as an outpatient, however, now this renal function, he has been transitioned over to insulin with his standing doses of Lantus with a lispro sliding scale. The patient was started on TPN for quite severe malnutrition and has increasing albumin with increased appetite. Additionally, he is on maintenance doses of hydrocortisone and was seen by Psychiatry, who suggested starting low dose of Zyprexa in the evening, which has greatly improved his mood. He is planned to be evaluated by Plastic Surgery prior to discharge for final plans whether a flap or healing by secondary retention. The patient currently is stable and would be discharged with home dobutamine and frequent and careful follow up by his primary cardiologist Dr. Mongiovi.

Has the patient taken medication for diabetes.

This 63 year-old male with a history of peripheral vascular disease, hypertension, non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, aortic stenosis, and status post bilateral lower extremity bypass grafts presented to the hospital with increasing left lower extremity pain. At which time tPA infusion was commenced and an occlusion of the left lower extremity vein graft was found in the area of the mid-thigh with no passage of contrast and minimal reconstitution of collaterals to his foot. He was managed medically for a few days and underwent catheterization which revealed a right dominant system, a discreet 40% lesion in the proximal left main, a discreet 30% lesion in the proximal left anterior descending artery, 100% lesion in the first marginal branch of the left circumflex artery, as well as 100% lesion in the second marginal branch of the left circumflex artery. He was taken to the operating room on 0/27/02 for an aortic valve replacement with a #23 Carpentier-Edwards pericardial valve and mitral valvuloplasty with an Alfieri suture repair, as well as coronary artery bypass graft times three with left internal mammary artery to the left anterior descending artery, left radial to obtuse marginal one, and left radial to posterior descending artery. During his hospital course he was on MEDICATIONS: Glipizide 5 mg b.i.d., Hydrochlorothiazide 50 mg q.d., Lisinopril 20 mg q.d., Simvastatin 20 mg q.d., Amlodipine 5 mg q.d., Imdur 30 mg q.d., and Toprol 100 mg q.d. and enteric coated aspirin, and he remained on his aspirin and Lopressor, as well as Coumadin. He was placed on the Portland protocol and remained on a full ten-day course of Flagyl and Cefotaxime for his preoperative pneumonia. On his pre-discharge examination he was discharged to rehabilitation with DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS: Coumadin 4 mg p.o. q.hs to maintain INR between 2 and 3, aspirin, Diltiazem 30 mg t.i.d., Simvastatin 20 mg q.d., Colace 100 mg t.i.d., Nexium 20 mg q.d., Niferex-150 b.i.d., Glipizide 5 mg b.i.d., Lasix 40 mg b.i.d., and Lopressor 50 mg b.i.d. with CZI sliding scale.

Is there history of use of cefotaxime

Patient Isaac Vanover, Jr., a 44-year-old man with a history of CAD s/p MI x2 4/14 with PCI, in stent thrombosis, and re-stenting, was admitted multiple times for CP with associated fatigue and SOB. He was placed on ECASA (Aspirin Enteric Coated) 325 MG PO QD, COLACE (Docusate Sodium) 100 MG PO BID PRN constipation, ENALAPRIL MALEATE 5 MG PO QAM HOLD IF: SBP<100, POTENTIALLY SERIOUS INTERACTION: POTASSIUM CHLORIDE & ENALAPRIL MALEATE (on order for KCL IMMEDIATE RELEASE PO (ref #56599393)), ATIVAN (Lorazepam) 1 MG PO TID Starting Today March PRN anxiety HOLD IF: RR<12 or pt is lethargic, NITROGLYCERIN 1/150 (0.4 MG) 1 TAB SL q5min x 3 PRN chest pain HOLD IF: SBP < 100, ZOLOFT (Sertraline) 100 MG PO QD, ZOCOR (Simvastatin) 20 MG PO QHS, PLAVIX (Clopidogrel) 75 MG PO QD, VIOXX (Rofecoxib) 25 MG PO QD, ZANTAC (Ranitidine HCl) 150 MG PO BID PRN dyspepsia, and ATENOLOL 25 MG PO QD with Food/Drug Interaction Instruction. Managed on Hep, TNG gtt, Plavix, ACE, B blocker, and Demerol, the pain recurred and he was transferred to BVH for cath. Cardiac catheterization on 8/18/02 showed non-obstructive CAD with LMCA, LAD, LCx, and RCA all OK. Pulmonary level of suspicion for PE is low, so D-dimer is sent and PE ruled out. Mild fluid overload was managed with Lasix to keep I/O's 500-1000cc neg. Pain could represent pericarditis, but psychiatric etiology for CP becomes more likely and psychiatric follow-up and treatment for anxiety and depression is recommended. WBC count increased 4/10 but no other sign/symptom of infection, CXR showed no infiltrates, and the patient was discharged stable with instructions to schedule an appointment with the primary doctor within 2-4 weeks, and if chest pain changes in character or is associated with new symptoms, the patient is to notify their doctor or call 911.

The patient is a 76-year-old female with a history of mitral regurgitation, congestive heart failure, recurrent UTIs, and uterine prolapse who presented with chills and hypotension and was admitted to the Medical ICU for treatment of septic shock. Mean arterial pressures were kept above 65 with Levophed and antibiotics were changed to penicillin 3 million units IV q.4h. and gentamicin 50 mg IV q.8h. An ATEE on 10/19 showed severe mitral regurgitation with posterior leaflet calcifications and linear density concerning for endocarditis, for which a PICC line was placed on 1/19 for a six-week course of penicillin 3 million units IV q.4h. and two-week course of gentamicin 50 mg IV q.8h. until 2/25. The patient was initially treated with Levophed for her hypotension until 11/0, and was placed on Levofloxacin and Vancomycin to treat Gram-positive cocci bacteremia and UTI. She was maintained on telemetry and was found to be a normal sinus rhythm with ectopy, including short once of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia. She was started on Lopressor 12.5 mg t.i.d. on 3/18, and this was increased to 25 mg b.i.d. at discharge, with her heart rates continuing to be between the 70s and the 90s, however, with less episodes of ectopy. Aspirin was given, and Lipitor was initially held for an initial transaminitis presumed to be secondary to shock liver. She had guaiac positive stools in the medical ICU, her hematocrit was stable around 33%, and her iron studies suggested anemia of chronic disease with possibly overlying iron deficiency. She had a normal random cortisol level of 35.3, and her Hemoglobin A1c was 6.5, so she was maintained thereafter only on insulin sliding scale and rarely required any coverage. The patient was kept on Lovenox and Protonix and her DISCHARGE MEDICATIONS include Aspirin 81 mg daily, iron sulfate 325 mg daily, gentamicin sulfate 50 mg IV q.8h. until 2/25 for a two-week course, penicillin G potassium 3 million units IV q.4h. until 0/12 for a six-week course, Lopressor 25 mg b.i.d., Caltrate plus D2 tablets p.o. daily, Lipitor 10 mg daily, and Protonix 40 mg daily. She was discharged to rehabilitation at Acanmingpeerra Virg Tantblu Medical Center in order to be able to get her antibiotic therapy, and her physicians will attempt to add the ACE back onto her medical regimen for better afterload reduction as her blood pressure tolerates, and potentially they will add her back on to the Lasix as well. She will require weekly lab draws to check her electrolytes and CBC while she is on the antibiotics.

What medications if any has the patient tried for prophylaxis: in the past

A 79-year-old male with history of non-insulin dependent diabetes, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, hypertension, chronic renal failure, and left toe amputation on 7/1/06 was admitted for debridement and antibiotics. An MRA on 10/3/06 demonstrated on the right a multifocal high-grade stenosis of the proximal, anterior tibial, the tibioperoneal trunk and the proximal, posterior tibial arteries and included peroneal artery at the midcalf, two-vessel runoff and on the left diffuse high-grade stenoses of the anterior tibial, posterior tibial arteries and occlusion of the peroneal artery in the dorsalis pedis. The patient presented with bleeding from the site of the left toe amputation beginning two weeks ago associated with throbbing pain, soreness, erythema and swelling and exacerbated blood pressure when walking and only treated by narcotics. Neuro and Psych: The patient has delirium postoperatively for which he was placed on soft restraints and received Zyprexa. Cardiac: Upon admission, potassium was noted to be elevated and the patient had EKG changes associated with hyperkalemia and received Aspirin, Lopressor, Norvasc, Zocor, Plavix, PhosLo, Prandin for coronary artery disease related event prophylaxis.

A 65 year old African-American female with a history of chronic pancreatitis was admitted to the Staho Health 10 of November to 3 of May for her chronic pancreatitis and returned on the 24 of January with recurrent abdominal pain and symptoms consistent with her chronic pancreatitis. On admission, she had a low grade temperature of 100.2, was tachycardic with a heart rate of 131, respiratory rate 20, blood pressure 132/80. Abdominal exam was significant for decreased bowel sounds and abdominal tenderness in the midepigastric region with guarding. Laboratory data showed sodium 128, potassium 4.1, chloride 95, bicarb 26, BUN 23, creatinine 0.8, glucose 433, WBC 17.8, hematocrit 33, platelets 370, alk level of 434, T-bili was 0.6, D-bili was 0.2, lipase was 123, and amylase was 37. An ultrasound showed no gallstones and a 6 cm cyst in the region of the pancreatic head. EKG showed her to be in sinus tachycardia with the rate of 122. Her past medical history was significant for pancreatitis, asthma, insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, history of vascular necrosis of both hips, status post a total hip replacement on the right and left, known coronary artery disease, history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, history of GI bleed, status post a Nissen fundoplication with redo, hypertension, alpha thalassemia, history of congestive heart failure, and chronic low back pain secondary to spinal stenosis.

At the time of discharge, the patient was relatively pain-free, tolerating a p.o. diet, and afebrile and was discharged to the Triadnockum for rehabilitation on her usual medications plus the above-mentioned antibiotics, to complete a seven-day course, and will follow up in the Gug University in the next one to two weeks and will be followed by her primary care physician, Dr. Lorenzo.

Is there a mention of of elavil usage/prescription in the record

This 75-year-old female vasculopath was admitted for further evaluation of her peripheral vascular disease which was suspected to be contributing to her new ulcerations and progressively worsening bilateral foot pain, foot mottling and wrist pain as an exacerbating factor to likely atheroembolic phenomenon, status post coronary catheterizations earlier in the year. She was placed on broad-spectrum antibiotics and plan was made for an MRA to evaluate her anatomy, unfortunately, the patient was unable to tolerate the MR and did experience some mental status changes that prevented further noninvasive imaging when she received some narcotic following her hemodialysis round. Over the ensuing days she required rather significant doses of Zyprexa and Haldol to contain agitation and delirium, as the patient would also get physical and violent. This appeared to sedate her sufficiently and over the following days, she did manage to calm significantly and returned to her baseline mental status. Cardiology was consulted during this time to optimize her prior to the OR and her primary cardiologist, Dr. Fugle, did make some recommendations including an echocardiogram that showed preserved ejection fraction and no wall motion abnormalities. Her beta blockade was titrated up and she was instructed to follow up with cardiology. She did tolerate hemodialysis throughout this time without undue difficulty and they offered an angiogram to delineate aortic and bilateral lower extremity runoff anatomy. After extensive discussions with the patient and the patient's family, the patient did agree to a left femoral to dorsalis pedis bypass graft which was performed on 0/25/2006 without complication. By time of discharge, she was tolerating a regular diet and ambulating at baseline with her rolling walker. The pain was well controlled with minimal analgesics that were not narcotic based. Medications on admission included Aspirin 325 mg p.o. daily, Plavix 75 mg p.o. daily, Cardizem 60 mg p.o. t.i.d., Lipitor 80 mg daily, Atrovent 2 puffs four times a day, Albuterol 2 puffs b.i.d., Renagel 806 mg p.o. every meal, Allopurinol 100 mg p.o. daily, Zaroxylyn 2.5 mg p.o. daily p.r.n. overload, Lantus 10 units subcutaneous nightly, Regular insulin sliding scale, Valium 5 mg p.o. b.i.d. p.r.n., Isordil 40 mg p.o. t.i.d., Hydralazine 20 mg p.o. t.i.d., Lopressor 75 mg p.o. t.i.d., Zantac 150 mg p.o. b.i.d., Aciphex 20 mg p.o. daily, Neurontin 300 mg p.o. post-dialysis, Metamucil, Nitroglycerine p.r.n., Procrit 40,000 units subcutaneously every week, Lilly insulin pen, unknown dosage 20 units every morning and 10 units every evening, Loperamide 2 tabs p.o. four times a day, Ambien 10 mg p.o. nightly p.r.n., Tylenol 325 mg p.o. every four hours p.r.n. pain, Albuterol inhaler 2 puffs b.i.d., Calcitriol 1.5 mcg p.o. every Monday and every Friday, Darbepoetin alfa 100 mcg subcutaneous every week, Ferrous sulfate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., Prozac 40 mg p.o. daily, Motrin 400 mg p.o. every eight hours p.r.n. pain, Insulin regular sliding scale, and Sevelamer 800 mg p.o. t.i.d. Discharge instructions included touchdown weightbearing on the left heel, legs are to be elevated as much as possible while sitting or lying down, all home medications were to be resumed except for Lopressor, VNA was ordered to assist with wound care including Betadine paint to incisions daily, showering only, no bathing or immersion in water for prolonged periods of time, and follow-up visits with Dr. Amorose in one to two weeks and Dr. Morici primary care physician in one week.

Has the pt. ever been on metamucil before

The patient is a 42-year-old white man who presented with complaints of fever to 103 and chills, a productive cough, and groin pain lasting three days. At age three, he was diagnosed with Wilms' tumor on the left, which was resected and subsequently treated with wide field radiation, after which he developed radiation-induced tyroid cancer, at which time he underwent subtotal thyroidectomy. In May of 1997, he underwent living related donor renal transplantation for chronic renal failure, however, the postoperative course was complicated by cytomegalovirus infection, presenting with diarrhea and requiring hospitalization in February 1997. He was treated with ganciclovir and subsequently maintained on Cytovene. He had one fever spike on hospital day one and Levaquin was initiated on hospital day three along with intravenous antibiotics, after which he was switched to oral antibiotics, including Levaquin and Augmentin. His blood pressures were stabilized at 130/80 with the initiation of a second antihypertensive medication, Nifedipine XL, for which he was maintained for two days at 30 mg. Hematologic studies revealed that he was continued on anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation at 4 mg daily with an INR remaining in his goal parameters. His creatinine level was 2.5 and his cyclosporine level was 303 on admission, reaching a maximum of 19.8 on hospital day four. Endocrine studies revealed a TSH of 0.02, a T4 of 6.0, and a THPR of 1.47. The patient's pulmonary status improved on oxygen and on intravenous antibiotics, and all studies for atypical organisms were negative. Prior to discharge, the patient's pulmonary status had returned to baseline and had entirely resolved. The patient was discharged on Augmentin 250/125 mg t.i.d., Levaquin 250 mg q.d., CellCept 500 mg b.i.d., Neoral 100 mg b.i.d., Prednisone 10 mg q.d., Synthroid 125 mcg q.d., INP insulin 14 units subcu q.a.m., regular insulin subcu p.r.n., Axid 150 mg q.d., nadolol 80 mg q.d., nifedipine XL 30 mg q.d., Coumadin 4 mg q.d., and iron sulfate 300 mg q.d., and follow-up was scheduled for bone densitometry in July 1998, with Dr. Clinton Ardizone in January 1998, and with Dr. Win in March.

What was the dosage prescribed of inp insulin

The patient had continued to remain stable from an ischemia standpoint and a beta-blocker was added back to his regimen and was titrated to a dose of Lopressor 12.5 mg p.o. t.i.d. He continues on aspirin and statin, and he also continues on Isordil 20 mg p.o. t.i.d. and hydralazine 50 mg p.o. t.i.d. for after load reduction, as well as digoxin at 0.125 mg p.o. q.o.d. The patient was aggressively diuresed with intravenous Lasix and Zaroxolyn followed by conversion to oral diuresis with torsemide at the dose of 100 mg p.o. q.d. He was also found to have atrial clot on transesophageal echocardiogram and thus was started on a heparin drip and transitioned on Coumadin, but after a discussion with the CHF Team, the decision was made not to continue Coumadin anticoagulation and instead he was given aspirin and Plavix at full doses. The patient's medication regimen also includes Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., Folate 1 mg p.o. q.d., Robitussin A-C 5 mL p.o. q.4h. p.r.n. cough, Simethicone 80 mg p.o. q.i.d. p.r.n. upset stomach, Multivitamin one tab p.o. q.d., Compazine 5-10 mg p.o. q.6h. p.r.n. nausea, Tessalon 100 mg p.o. t.i.d. p.r.n. cough, Lipitor 80 mg p.o. q.d., Plavix 75 mg p.o. q.d., Lantus 5 units subcu q.p.m., NovoLog 3 units subcu a.c. and NovoLog sliding scale. The patient is on ACE inhibitor and was restarted on a low-dose beta-blocker at 12.5 mg p.o. t.i.d. as well as his insulin regimen can be adjusted as an outpatient and possibly oral diabetes medications restarted. He is to be discharged to the Com Medical Center for further rehabilitation, with follow-up appointments with Dr. Kyle Yandle in the T Las on 2/28/05 at 08:30 a.m., Dr. Clyde Chatampaya of Elmert Hospital Cardiology 9/26/05 and Raymond Banaag of TRISTONTERN MEDICAL CENTER PCP on 10/3/05 at 01:50 p.m. His sister, Alexis Fernendez, is his health care proxy and is providing substantial social support.

What is her current dose of colace

A 42-year-old male was admitted on 4/30 with congestive heart failure exacerbation, hyperhomocysteinemia, chronic renal failure, obesity, hypercholesterolemia, h/o DVT, asthma, OSA, and a worsening of his dyspnea of exertion (DOE) to 3 miles of flat ground with a suspicion of multifocal pneumonia (PNA). He had a D-dimer of 1400, BNP of 2009, and Troponin of 0.84-0.54, which was not considered ischemic, and was not treated. On this admission, his D-dimer was 1207, BNP was 2917, and Troponin was not sent. He had a JVP to earlobe, bibasilar rales, no wheezes, and diffuse pitting edema to his bilateral shins. He had a chest X-ray (CXR) showing increased bilat LL opacities to the periphery with some cephalization of vessels and some opacification. An electrocardiogram (ECG) showed 98 bpm with left anterior fascicular block (LAE) and strain. A chest CT scan from 8/18 (comparing to 4/30) showed per pulm c/w scarring/persistent changes after recent multifocal PNA 4/30, no e/o of new primary lung path, and ground glass c/w pulmonary edema. An echocardiogram showed an ejection fraction (EF) of 25%, moderate right ventricular (RV) dysfunction, and severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR). A follow-up cardiac MRI from 10/16 showed an EF of 23%, global hypokinesis, no wall motion abnormality (WMA), normal RV, and no valve disease. In the ED, he received Duonebs, ASA 325, and Lasix 80mg. His shortness of breath was secondary to CHF exacerbation and fluid overload with no evidence of an infectious pulmonary process contributing to his symptoms. His hypertension was most likely due to taking the wrong dose of Coreg (taking QOD instead of BID). On a BID Coreg regimen, his BP was much better controlled. His renal function remained stable but impaired while he was being evaluated for dialysis as an outpatient but no vascular access was placed yet. He was discharged on 6/7/05 with a full code status and disposition to home with food/drug interaction instruction to take consistently with meals or on empty stomach and activity to walk as tolerated with follow up appointments with Dr. Sackrider at ACH 5/6/05 at 1:30 PM scheduled, Dr. Dauphin at CMC 0/4/05 at 1:40 PM scheduled. He was discharged with ACETYLSALICYLIC ACID 81 MG PO QD, on order for COUMADIN PO (ref #55946845) to address a POTENTIALLY SERIOUS INTERACTION: ASPIRIN & WARFARIN, PHOSLO (CALCIUM ACETATE) 667 MG PO TID, FOLATE (FOLIC ACID) 1 MG PO QD, DIOVAN (VALSARTAN) 160 MG PO QD prescribed by his cardiologist, CARVEDILOL 6.25 MG PO BID HOLD IF: HR < 60, or SBP < 100, NEPHROCAPS (NEPHRO-VIT RX) 1 TAB PO QD, with an alert overridden: Override added on 4/7/05 by ALAMIN, NORMAN B., M.D. POTENTIALLY SERIOUS INTERACTION: SIMVASTATIN & NIACIN, VIT. B-3 Reason for override: MD Aware, LIPITOR (ATORVASTATIN) 20 MG PO QD with an alert overridden: Override added on 6/7/05 by: POTENTIALLY SERIOUS INTERACTION: NIACIN, VIT. B-3 & ATORVASTATIN CALCIUM Reason for override: home med, and LASIX (FUROSEMIDE) 80 MG PO BID, with a d/c JVP 10cm. He had not been taking his Lasix for 2d prior to d/c. Pt was instructed to diurese further at home on Lasix 80 BID and continue on Coumadin for his h/o recent DVT (4/30) and INR 2-3.

Has the pt. ever been on lasix ( furosemide ) before

This is a 66-year-old man with spinal sarcoidosis and secondary paraplegia who presented with altered mental status, hypoxemic respiratory failure, and hypotension. He became hypotensive with intubation despite using etomidate with Levophed, and was started on vancomycin, gentamicin, Flagyl, and stress dose steroids with 1 liter of IV fluid. His urine was found to have Proteus, resistant to Macrobid, and Klebsiella, resistant to ampicillin, so he was started on Levophed with a systolic blood pressure in the 130's on 7 to 10 of Levophed and Levofloxacin was continued at 500 mg per day for a total 10-day course on in the evening, Regular Insulin sliding scale, levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. daily, to end on 10/16/2006 for a total course of 10 days. Urology replaced the suprapubic catheter and he was started on maintenance IV fluids until cleared to eat by Speech and Swallow. His home medications included Regular Insulin sliding scale a.c. and at bedtime, NPH 54 units in the morning and 68 units in the night, baclofen 10 mg t.i.d., amitriptyline 25 mg at bedtime, oxybutynin 5 mg t.i.d., gabapentin 300 mg t.i.d., iron sulfate 325 mg t.i.d., vitamin C 500 mg daily, magnesium 420 mg t.i.d., Coumadin 5 mg daily, ranitidine 150 mg b.i.d., and calcium 950 mg daily. He was given a head CT without contrast and a chest x-ray that showed no obvious infiltrate. His INR was found to be elevated and he had a suprapubic catheter obstruction with bilateral hydronephrosis and distended bladder. He was given Nexium and Coumadin for prophylaxis and was started on a low dose of captopril on 8/14/2006 for diabetes, and was started on 12.5 mg b.i.d. metoprolol on 0/14/2006 with good results. He was given NPH 20 b.i.d. through his hospitalization and Regular Insulin sliding scale. His creatinine came down to 1.2 and he was given the new beta-blocker and the ACE inhibitor as well as baclofen 10 mg p.o. t.i.d., Caltrate 600 Plus D one tablet p.o. b.i.d., ferrous sulfate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., gabapentin 300 mg p.o. t.i.d., NPH human insulin 54 units in the morning, 68 units in the evening, Regular Insulin sliding scale, levofloxacin 500 mg p.o. daily, magnesium oxide 420 mg p.o. t.i.d., metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., oxybutynin 5 mg p.o. t.i.d., Panafil ointment t.i.d., and ranitidine 500 mg p.o. b.i.d. He was admitted with severe sepsis due to UTI, suprapubic catheter/ostomy for 12 years, diabetes type II, right DVT, on Coumadin, status post chronic UTI, and CPAP at night for pneumonia with ceftazidime, levofloxacin, and vancomycin. His sugars were controlled with no complications and was able to maintain blood pressures in the 130's. His creatinine was initially 2.7, and after receiving IV fluids, it came down to 1.2. He likely had acute renal failure secondary to postrenal obstructive etiology. His INR was found to be therapeutic and he had half of his home Coumadin dose while he was on levofloxacin, so he was given half of dose and his INRs came down to a nadir of 1.7. At discharge, his hematocrit was 27.2, down from 29, which was closed to his baseline of 34, and his INR was 2.1. He was placed on maintenance IV fluids until cleared to eat by Speech and Swallow, and was given amitriptyline 25 mg p.o. at bedtime, vitamin C 500 mg p.o. daily, baclofen 10 mg p.o. t.i.d., Caltrate 600 Plus D one tablet p.o. b.i.d., ferrous sulfate

Has the patient had multiple panafil prescriptions
