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.

Patient Scenario #3:
Mr. Smith is POD #3 after a CABG. He has a h/o HTN, CAD, and DM. He also uses a CPAP overnight for
OSA. He is AxO x4 and able to make his needs known. PERRLA. Mr. Smith is on tele, his EKG this morning
showed NSR with a HR in the 80s and occasional PVCs. BP has been 120s/80s. CMS is intact. He was
experiencing new onset SOB this morning with a RR of 30, so the MD ordered a CXR and a CT to r/o a PE. He
is on O
2
via nc at 3 lpm with sats in the low 90s and normal ABGs. It is possible that he has HAP. He has a
Foley cath in place, that will likely be removed this afternoon to reduce the risk of CAUTI, then we will PVR
him Q6H and SIC for >400 ml. His BG levels have been extremely high since surgery and he has a history of
DKA, so he remains on an insulin gtt. His last FBS was 110 and we are checking them Q1H. He has a PICC in
his RUA and a 20G PIV in his LFA. His sternal dressings are c/d/i. PT and OT saw him yesterday and said he
can be SBA for transfers and that he can ambulate ad lib with the FWW and use the w/c for longer distances.
You will want to watch for DOE and maybe have him be A1 or CGA instead. He has SCDs for DVT
prevention. His BMP was drawn this morning and his K+ and Mg were both WNL. He c/o 6/10 pain on the
NOC shift, he has PO pain meds Q4H PRN. I&O can be found in the chart.
