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.
