Lab Findings:

Impression and Plan:

1. Primary Diagnosis: Left frontal intraparenchymal hemorrhage with R hemiplegia. Since the patient fell on 8/2/06 and became symptomatic the next day, this could be secondary to fall rather than HTN.

2. Secondary Diagnosis: R hemiplegia, aphasia, hypertension, hypothyroidism, atrial fibrillation

3. Neuro: as above. No history of seizure. Monitor call light use and unsafe transfers. PT, OT and ST for improved ADL, cognitive function, communication, bed mobility transfers, wheelchair mobility, pregait and gait as appropriate, and energy conservation techniques.

4. Respiratory: Now on 1L O2 nasal canula. Will wean down O2.

5. DVT prophylaxis: SCDs and TEDs, OOB as tolerated.

6. Mood/behavior: Currently non-agitated. Monitor.

7. Pain: Tylenol prn. Oxycodone for severe pain.

8. GI Prophylaxis: Protonix 40mg po daily

9. Sleep: Ambien qhs prn. Follow sleep/wake chart.

10. B/B: d/c foley and follow I +O's and PVRs, BTP with Colace and dulcolax. Check UA, Urine C+S.

11. GI/FEN: Cardiac, low salt diet with thin liquids.

12. Atrial fibrillation: Continue labetalol for rate control. Hold coumadin due to intracranial bleed. Monitor INR until normal.

13. HTN: Well controlled. Continue labetalol to keep SBP < 150.

14. Hypothyroidism: Continue levothyroxine.

15. Arthritis: Pain management.
