For her atrial fibrillation, she was started on diltiazem. For the pneumonia, she was treated with antibiotics. She was then transferred to the floor later that same night on metoprolol 50 mg tid. While on the floor, she had a bronchoscopy performed which showed external compression of her left mainstem bronchus, and she had a biopsy via fine-needle aspiration, which showed large cell carcinoma. She denies chest pain, shortness of breath and tachypnea. She does note some diaphoresis and occasional palpitations.


This 84-year-old man with a history of coronary artery disease presents with 2 days of melena and black colored emesis. Stools becoming less dark, but he had increased lethargy and presented to the emergency department today.  Initial systolic blood pressure recorded in the 60s,  but all in 110-120s after that.  In the ED, he had gastric lavage with coffee ground emesis that cleared with 600 cc of flushing. During the lavage he had chest pressure with mild ST depression V3-V5 that resolved spontaneously.  Patient is on ASPIRIN 81 mg Tablet by mouth daily.


A 96 y/o female found unresponsive on ground at nursing home.  Pt was in dining room and found by staff.  Unresponsive for 1 min after found.  Pt cannot recollect events preceding fall but with some c/o HA and some neck/shoulder discomfort. NCHCT showed ~9mm L parietal SDH.  C-spine negative.  Imaging: CT head w/o contrast Acute left subdural hematoma measuring 1.5 cm maximal dimensions with leftward subfalcine herniation of 8 mm, downward transtentorial herniation with obliteration of the left suprasellar cistern, and uncal herniation. No fx, destructive infiltrative lesion involving the skull base.


85 y/o F with PMHx of HTN, HL, h/o breast CA and 3cm renal pelvis transitional cell tumor who presented for nephrectomy.  Her post op course was complicated by agitation thought due to narcotics.  Today, she was restarted on her home meds and while on telemetry, pt was noted to be bradycardic to 40s.  Pt was triggered for SBP of 70 and HR of 40 during which she remained asymptomatic.  She was given 1L IVF and her HR/BP trended back up to baseline.  However, there was a second event an hour later when she sat up and became bradycardic in the 30s with associated hypotension. Second episode occurred with position change and again, pt developped junctional rhythm in 30s.


This is a 54 year old male patient with an idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, who called today with worsening dyspnea for 3 days. He had been in unusual state of good health at baseline respiratory status (using 4L nasal canula at rest and 6L with exertion) when 3 days prior to admission, he hugged his cousin who has rats for pets and also the heat came up from the basement of his house. He feels that with these two events, his breathing became acutely worse and he is concerned for allergen exposure. He denies any sick contacts, fevers, chills, rhinorrhea. He did receive flu and pneumovax vaccines.  He has had a recent admission last month with progressive dyspnea on exertion. The computed tomography revealed increased ground glass opacity in lower lobes superimposed on pulmonary fibrosis with elevated eosinophils peripherally (12%). A bronchoalveolar lavage was also positive for eosinophils. He was started on high dose steroids (prednisone 60mg) with plan for close outpatient follow up for eosinophilic lung disease. He was discharged on 2-3L nasal canula. He then represented to the emergency department for spontaneous pneumomediastinum of unclear etiology.  On day of current admission, the patient called his pulmonologist complaining of worsening shortness of breath since Saturday. Yesterday he was at pulmonary rehab and desaturated to the 70s on 6L with minimal exertion, and he is currently on 4L nasal canula at rest.  No sick contacts recently. He was asked to go to ED.  In the ED, initial vs were: 98.3, 96, 144/97, 24, 97% 6L NC.

   [**3120-12-11**] after developing acute pulmonary edema/CHF/unresponsiveness?.
   There was a question whether he had a small MI; he reportedly had a
   small NQWMI. He improved with diuresis and was not intubated.
   .
   Yesterday, he was noted to have a melanotic stool earlier this evening
   and then approximately 9 loose BM w/ some melena and some frank blood
   just prior to transfer, unclear quantity.

Mr. [**Known patient lastname 4075**] is a 63 yo man with h/o biphenotypic ALL, now Day + 32
   from allogeneic SCT, who presents to clinc with one week of worsening
   SOB and two days of a clear productive cough.  The patient states his
   SOB occured when lying flat, but not with activity.  Also admitted to
   chest pressure which would come and go in his left chest no related to
   the SOB.  Sleeps with 3 pillows (no change from baseline), denies PND;
   admits to a slight increase in lower extremity edema.  Admits to low
   grade fevers to the 99's and crampy abdominal pain.  Denies chills,
   night sweats, vomiting, or diarrhea.
   Assessment and Plan
   Assesment: This is a 63 year-old male with a history of h/o
   biphenotypic ALL, now Day + 32 from allogeneic SCT, who presents with
   hypoxia, one week of worsening SOB, and two days of productive cough.
   Plan:
   # Hypoxia: The patient developed acute onset of hypoxia accompanied by
   fever and a one day cough with sputum production.  Given that the
   patient is about 1 month s/p allogenic SCT the differential is broad
   and would include bacterial pneumonia, viral pneumonia (CMV, flu), and
   opportunistic infections including fungal infections.  Patient also has
   a history of CMV infection, aspergillus and Leggionare's disease and is on
   posaconazole.  His CXR showed an opacification of the left basilar lobe
   and also right upper lobe concerning for pneumonia as well as a small
   loculated right pleural effusion.  Also in the differential is
   noninfectious causes such as PE, CHF, or MI.  US were negative for clot
   and his first set of CE were negative.


94 M with CAD s/p 4V-CABG [**3420**] and CRI had been doing well until this
   AM when he was out walking with his wife.  [**Name (NI) **] abruptly syncopized and a bystander started CPR quickly.  The local fire department delivered two shocks without success.  Then EMS came and gave two more shocks and he went back into sinus.  It is unclear whether he regained
   consciousness.  He was intubated then brought to [**Hospital1 5**] ED.
   .
    In the ED, his intial SBP was reported to be 110.  Labs show K 2.7 and
   Hct 25.  He was given 40mEq of KCL.  On repeat labs, his K normalized
   and his Hct was 33 without any blood.  It is unclear whether one of the
   labs was erroneous.
   the vitals were recorded as: T=34.8, HR 62, 132/74, 18, 100% on AC 18x500, FiO2 100%.

   EKG: Sinus at 80 BPM with LAD, prolonged PR, TD 0.5 to 1mm in V4-V6
    .
   ECHO:
   The left atrium and right atrium are normal in cavity size. There is
   mild symmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with normal cavity size.
   There is mild global left ventricular hypokinesis (LVEF = 45-50 %). The
   right ventricular free wall is hypertrophied. Right ventricular chamber
   size is normal. with normal free wall contractility. The aortic root is
   mildly dilated at the sinus level. The ascending aorta is moderately
   dilated. The aortic valve leaflets (3) are mildly thickened but aortic
   stenosis is not present. Mild to moderate ([**1-13**]+) aortic regurgitation
   is seen. The mitral valve leaflets are mildly thickened. There is no
   mitral valve prolapse. Mild (1+) mitral regurgitation is seen. The
   tricuspid valve leaflets are mildly thickened. The estimated pulmonary
   artery systolic pressure is normal. There is a trivial/physiologic
   pericardial effusion.
   IMPRESSION: Mildly depressed global left ventricular function. Mild to
   moderate aortic regurgitation. Mild mitral regurgitation.


85y/o m w/ hx AD, diverticulosis, recently dx colon ca

   lung disease, chronic constipation and SBOs s/p ileostomy, multiple
   UTIs (also s/p suprapubic tube) presents with SBO and UTI.  Of note he
   was just recently discharged from the [**Hospital1 52**] on [**10-2**] for an admission
   for a UTI (negative cultures) treated with cipro, shingles treated w/
   acyclovir and SBO evaluated by surgery but managed conservatively.  He
   returns today as his home health aide had noticed his Urine output was
   low, 75cc overnight when he usually has about 1 liter of UOP
   overnight.  His ostomy output has been high.  He has not noticed any
   symptoms.  Over the past two weeks he has had mild earaches, a
   sorethroat as well as some rhinorrhea.  He has not noticed any watery /
   itchy eyes.  He has not sure if he has had a change in his ostomy
   output or suprapubic output.  He has not noticed any visual changes, he
   has not noticed any new neurologic si/sx.  He denies any abdominal
   pain, has not sujectively noticed any change in abdominal distention.
   He denies any pain in regards to his zoster (now or when diagnosed).
   Denies CP, has an occasional cough that is not worsening.
   .
   In the ED, he was noted to be severely dehydrated on exam.   His BP
   nadir was 79/43 and HR peak was 97.  T 99 (he usually "runs low"), new
   ARF 1.4 up from 0.6.


A 64 yo F w/PMHx sx for AF, COPD, HTN, hyperlipidemia who initially had
   an open ASD repair c/b sternal wound infection and post-operative AF in
   [**11-15**] treated with amiodarone. On [**2-20**], she was initially admitted
   through the ED with SOB and back pain, and was noted to have atrial
   fibrillation with RVR. A CTA demonstrating diffuse LAD and
   post-obstructive PNA concerning for malignancy. For her atrial
   fibrillation, she was started on diltiazem gtt, for which she was
   transferred to the [**Hospital Unit Name 42**] for monitoring. The atrial fibrillation was
   thought to be in the setting of a post-obstructive pneumonia, for which
   she was treated with antibiotics. She was then transferred to the floor
   later that same night on metoprolol 50 mg tid. While on the floor, she
   had a bronchoscopy performed which showed external compression of her
   left mainstem bronchus, and she had a biopsy/FNA performed, which
   showed large cell carcinoma. She was then readmitted to the [**Hospital Unit Name 42**]
   yesterday with atrial fibrillation with HR 130s, and was started on a
   diltiazem gtt.
   .
   In the [**Hospital Unit Name 42**], she was started on po diltiazem, which was rapidly
   uptitrated to 60 mg qid. She was called out this morning. Tonight, at
   8:30 pm, she was noted to have HR 160s, w/EKG c/w AF with RVR, for
   which she received metoprolol 5 mg IV x2, followed by diltiazem 10 mg
   IV x2 without conversion. She denies chest pain, SOB, tachypnea. She
   does note some diaphoresis and occasional palpitations.


Briefly 79 yo F w/ a h/o CAD s/p RCA stenting BMS to mRCA [**3421**] and pLAD
   [**3423**], diastolic CHF (2 pillow orthopnea), 1+ MR, HTN, Hyperlipidemia,
   previous smoking history, and atrial fibrillation initially p/w cough,
   dyspnea.
   .
   Briefly, pt's symptoms began [**Month (only) 760**]. At that time pt was admitted
   with GI bleed, transfused and discharged without resolution of
   symptoms. Furthur workup noted bilateral atrial thrombi and
   anticoagulation was reinitiated. CTA did not show PE but was concern
   for small peripheral emboli as cause of dyspnea. Pt was had multiple
   PFTs, echos, CT scans and CXRs without definitive cause of dyspnea.
   Most recent PFTs on [**3432-12-27**] c/w restrictive ventilatory defect and low
   DLCO suspicious for interstitial pulmonary process (worsening). She has
   been followed by cardiology and pulmonology and is being treated for
   dCHF and reactive airway disease.
   .
   On current admission pt presented with cough, thought to be URI, rather
   than worsening of chronic dyspnea.  Current etiology considerations
   include CHF vs intrinsic pulmonary disease (infiltrative) vs embolic
   disease.
   In order to optimize cardic function with atrial kick, pt was
   pretreated with Sotolol and underwent TEE and cardioversion of afib on
   [**3433-1-11**].  After cardioversion, patient developed junctional HR to 45bpm
   with SBPs in 80s.  She was placed on dobutamine and HR increased to 80s
   (sinus vs antrial escape rhythm).  Off of dobutamine, HR and BP
   decreased with EKG demonstrated QTc of 700.
