Nursing Report Notes:
Mrs. Smith is a 77-year-old female patient admitted to the Women's Health Unit at RIH. She has a 3-day
history of abdominal pain and bloating. She has not had a bowel movement in 7 days and reports
minimal po intake due to pain and fullness in the abdomen. She had a CT of her abdomen that revealed
a bowel obstruction with large, distended loops of bowel. In the emergency department, a 16Fr
nasogastric tube was placed in the left nares at 55 cm. A chest x ray confirmed placement. She
immediately put out 730 ml of coffee ground emesis in the ED. Transport just brought the patient up
from the emergency department. The ER RN tells you that the patient said she has been taking
metolazone for the past few days to help with her abdominal pain and bloating.
