  5. Ice breaker • Think of a health scenario that you, a family member or family friend had to go through? • Were there a lot of surprises? Or did you know what to expect? • Was it overwhelming? • Did you feel like all of your questions were answered? • Did you feel like you could support your loved one?

Patient information • Medical information prior to admission • 12/20/13 Was seen by PCP for wound of left lower leg • 12/20/13 Antibiotic therapy and pain medication were initiated • Patient’s family were unaware of the details of the infection and medical history because the patient would not let her family in the room during doctor’s visits.

  10. Hospital admission day (12/27/13) • Hypoxic 85% • Fever 101 • BP 110/90, low at times with systolic between 80-100 • Atrial Fibrillation with rapid ventricular response up to 166 beats per minute • Hyponatremia 132 (normal 136-145 mEq/dl) • Hyperglycemia with an initial blood sugar of 1257 (normal 70-100 mg/dL) • CPK 286 (normal value 30-135 units/L) • WBC 13.6 (normal 5-10,000/ mm3) • Creatinine 2.2 (normal 0.5-1.1 mg/dL) • BUN 61 (normal 6-20 mg/dL)

  11. Hospital Admission Day Continued • Chest x-ray Does not show any acute disease with large goiter • Stabilized HR with Diltizem between 100-120 beats per minute • IV fluids to improve BP, 90 systolic • Blood sugars decreased to 400s with IV insulin • Transferred to ICU

  12. Current possible diagnoses • Sepsis • Hypotension • Atrial Fibrillation (what was it triggered by?) • Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemia Non-ketotic Syndrome (HHNS) • Acute Kidney Injury • Thyroid Storm

  13. Thyroid gland review • Normal Values TSH 0.4-4.0 mlU/L • Thyroid function • Role of T3 and T4

  14. Thyroid function

  15. Thyroid storm • What is it? • Causes • S/S • Treatment

  16. hyperosmolar hyperglycemia Nonketotic syndrome (HHNS) • What is it? • Causes • Warning S/S • Treatment

  17. Rd’s role in care for mrs. W? • Interview patient for information? • Calculate nutrient needs • Determine what form of nutrients PO, G-tube, TPN, NPO w/ IV fluids?( Po support vs Enteral support at Wing) • Are there any skin wounds to consider? • Chronic or acute illness that needs to be considered?

  18. NUTRITION ASSESSMENT • Physical Assessment • Breathing • Alert • Skin appearance • Wounds present • Odor present

  19. Nutrition assessment • Current diet • Swallow status determined • IV fluids running?

  20. NUTRITION ASSESSMENT • BP- WNL • RR-not labored 20/minute • TEMP- afebrile • Anthropometrics HT 67” WT 147 KG 67 BMI 23 UBW ? DESIRED BODY WT 135LBS- WT DOES NOT NEED TO BE ADJUSTED

  21. Nutrition assessment • Medications • Humalog SS • Propylthiouracil • Inderal • Solucortef • Zosyn • Lovenox • Dilaudid • Vancomycin • Cardizem • Lanoxin • ASA • INSULIN DRIP

  22. LABS

  23. NUTRITION ASSESSMENT • Level One Nutritional Risk • Patients Needs include • Protein: Minimum 67 grams of protein (1g/kg) • Calorie: 1675-2010 kcals (25-30kcal/kg) • Fluids: 1675-2010 ml (1ml/kcal) PES Inadequate oral food/beverage intake R/T DX , lethargy, DM and AKI as evidenced by patient is unable to take in PO at this time, elevated glucose, abnormal renal labs, open areas on left lower leg, heel and stage 11 skin ulcer on coccyx. Increased nutrient needs R/T increased demand for nutrient secondary to refeedingsyndrome as evidenced by labs values indicating hypophosphatemia, hypomagnesaemia, and hypokalemia.

  24. Nutrition assessment • Interventions: • Inform kitchen of allergies (seafood, strawberries and chocolate) • Monitor for PO feasibility and assess for nutritional supplements as feasible • Diet Order: Diabetic/ Cardiac • Recommend once daily MVI with minerals, (zinc ,vitamin C) due to open areas

  25. Nutrition progress note (12/30/13) • Patient could not breath on own intubated and sedated • Diet order: NPO • Med Changes: Versed, Fentanyl, Kphos, Magnesium • Current labs: BG 147, BUN and Creatinine improving, Phos 2.2 and Mag 1.6 being replaced, albumin 2.2 s/p IV fluids, H+H decreased ? Infectious process • WT: increased 15.6 LBS since admission on 12/27/13- large positive fluid balance • Abdominal CT scan showed an small bowel ileus • Interventions: Monitor labs, replace electrolytes as indicated, if unable to extubate in next 2-3 days would consider tube feeds, pending resolution of ileus

  26. Nutrition progress note (12/31-1/2) • Diet Order: NPO • Intubation continues, weaning attempted • Med: Lasix • Labs: BG 314 w/ Humalog SS, NA WNL, Phosphate 2.0, will receive 1000 mg/day with KPHOS, K+ WNL , MG++ decreased 1.5, H+H decreased at 9.6, 29.4 • WT: 161.6 LBS, (using 69 KG for calculations)

  27. Intervention (12/31-1/2) • Intervention: • Tube feeding initiated Jevity 1.2 started at 30 ml/hr, tolerated without residuals • Receives 100ml water flushes four times daily • Goal Rate Jevity 1.2 60 ml/hr with 100 ml water flushes four times daily • Provide 1728 kcal (25ml/hrABW), 80 grams protein (1.1g/kg ABW), 1562 ml free water (22ml/kg ABW) • Provide 1 tab of KPHOS four times daily (each tab: 250 mg Phos, 45mg K+, 298 mg NA), zinc, vit C • Patient at high risk for refeeding syndrome, advance tube feed by 15 ml every 8 hours as tolerated to goal rate of 60 ml/hr • Monitor wts, labs, follow refeeding syndrome, adjust water flushes as indicated

  28. Refeeding syndrome • What is it? • Causes • Treatment • Prevention

  29. Nutrition Progress note (1/3/14) • Extubated, swallow evaluation pending at this time • Diet Order: NPO, tube feed D/C’d, IV fluids D5 1/2 NS AT 100 ML/HR, ice chips are tolerated • Labs: Indicate Refeeding Syndrome NA elevated 147, K+ decreased 3.3, Phos decreased 1.9, MG++ decreased 1.6 All with supplementation Glucose 216, A1C >15, prealbumin decreased 6.9 (wounds, sepsis, doxycycline added), H+H stable • Intervention: • 1. Follow swallow evaluation/PO feasibility, labs, weight change • 2. Add nutrition supplements as able (vanilla only) • 3. If PO not feasible, recommend start tube feed with Jevity 1.2 at 30 ml/hr and maintain at this rate until electrolytes normalize

  30. Nutrition Progress Note (1/4/14) • Patient Diet: NPO, IVF D5W 75 ml/hr • Breathing status change-currently on high flow nasal cannula • Unable to swallow today • Meeting set for consultation on transition to hospice/palliative (per patients wishes) • RD consulted for TPN recommendations • TPN 940 ml of 10% Aminosyn, 275 ml 50% Dextrose, 225ml sterile water and 250 mls 20% lipids would provide 1690 mls total volume (25ml/kg), 1344 kcals (20kcals/kg), 94 grams of protein (1.4 g/kg) • Monitor phosphate, magnesium, potassium closely, when stable increase to 25kcal/kg • 3. Use standard additives, provide extra phosphate, magnesium, potassium, via IV if necessary. If sodium level is still above normal limits, consider custom additives and omit sodium chloride from TPN. • 4. Follow plan of care, (SLP consult?), labs
