Patient Scenario #1:
Ms. Jones is here for AKI on CKD, stage 3. She also has a PMH of CHF, COPD, DM2, a R BKA, and a CVA
in 2002. She is A&O x2, and has L sided weakness. The HOB needs to be >30 degrees because she has an NG
with TF running at 40 cc/hr. Once her AKI resolves, she is going to have a PEG placed in IR. She is at high risk
for aspiration, so she is currently NPO. NKA, but there is a note about an ADR to morphine. She is on tele, SR
with 1st degree AVB and frequent PACs. She tolerates PROM exercises BID and is on SQ heparin for DVT
prophylaxis. The lab didn’t draw her CBC this morning. VSS. She
is A2 with transfers. She has APAP
scheduled QID. She last had pain meds with the HS med pass. They might do a MRI tomorrow.
