Common Daily Orders

Electrolyte Replacement

  • Potassium

– (goal 4-4.5)-do not replete if pt is on HD – Example Order – KDUR 20meq PO Q.I.D. x 1 day (MAKE SURE YOU PUT AN END TIME ON ORDER) – 10mEq of K raises serum K by 0.1mmol.

  • For mild renal failure, cut the dose in half.
  • For severe renal failure (CrCl<30) ask senior resident for help.
  • Administration Consideration

– PO tabs are huge – Liquid tastes gross, fast-acting – IV can be painful through a peripheral line. Go Slow

  • KCL 20mEq in 100ml sterile H20 IV, run at rate of 10mEq/hr

– Ideally run through a Central line – Can be added to maintenance IVF

Common Daily Orders

Electrolyte Replacement

  • Magnesium (goal>2)-do not replete in HD

– 1 g of Mg will raise Mg level by 0.1. – PO: Mag Oxide.

  • Causes diarrhea, consider not replacing if K+ is WNL
  • Mag oxide 400mg PO BID (x4 doses if Mg 1.5-1.7, x6 if

<1.4) – IV: Mag Sulfate

  • 8mEq if Mg 1.6-1.9
  • 16mEq if 1.3-1.5
  • 32mEq if 1-1.2

In 100 ml D5W In 250ml D5W

Common Daily Orders

Electrolyte Replacement

  • Phosphate (goal 3-4.5, usually replace if <2.5)
  • Replacement options

– Neutraphos 1 packet PO TID x 1 day – Kphos 1-2 Tabs PO QID x 1 day – Kphos 15mmol in 100ml NS IV, infuse over 6 hrs, x 2 doses

Common Daily Orders

Electrolyte Replacement

  • Calcium (goal 8.5-10) –don’t replete in HD unless dangerously low and nephrologist aware
  • Remember to correct for albumin.

– Corr. Calcium=Ca + 0.8 x(4-Alb)

  • Be very cautious when giving Calcium- Can precipitate MI, HypoTN, arrythmia etc
  • Indicated when decreased level causing increased QTC, seizure, arrhythmia
  • PO:

– Tums – Calcium Carbonate 500mg PO BID/QID for 1-2 grams total

  • IV:

– Calcium Gluconate 1-2g IV runs (1st choice for peripheral IV) – Calcium Chloride 1-2g IV runs (through central IV’s only ~4-5x as potent!)

Discharge Summary

  • A vital tool for transferring information

between the hospitalist and primary care physician

  • Extremely important for continuity of

care

  • Discharge planning should start at the

time of admission

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Shaping the Future of Healthcare | www.thewrightcenter.org

Discharge Summary

  • The Joint Commission mandates that discharge

summaries contain certain components:

– reason for hospitalization – significant findings – procedures – treatment provided – patient’s discharge condition – patient and family instructions – attending physician’s signature

slide-17
SLIDE 17

Shaping the Future of Healthcare | www.thewrightcenter.org

Discharge Summary

  • Research suggests summaries contain

insufficient or unnecessary information and fail to reach the primary care physician in time for the patient’s follow-up visit, if they arrive at all.

  • Delay can cause

– patient harm/frustration – repeated and unnecessary tests – medical error

slide-18
SLIDE 18

Shaping the Future of Healthcare | www.thewrightcenter.org

Discharge Summary

  • A structured, standard discharge summary

form ensures that all the important information is included

  • Allows the receiving physician to more quickly

identify how to respond to the patient’s hospitalization

  • Should be completed within 24 hours of

discharge

Important Notes for DC

  • As residents we often take patients who do

not have a PCP

  • These patients are frequently asked to follow

up at a WCGME clinic

  • If that is the case YOU MUST

– call the clinic – make an appointment for the patient – Relay any FU instructions/tests patient is scheduled for to the proper care coordinator

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Shaping the Future of Healthcare | www.thewrightcenter.org

Important Notes for DC

  • Patients on COUMADIN or INSULIN

– NEED to have inr, coumadin dose or insulin regiment communicated verbally to the clinic via telephone – Very important for patient safety
