Resident of Nalgonda.

Chief complaints

C/o pedal odema since 6 months 

C/ o shortness of breath since 3 months

History of present illness.

Patient was apparently asymptomatic one yr back, later he developed blurring of vision in both eyes, for which he went to the hospital and was diagnosed with Hypertension (hypertensive changes in the retina - papilledema) and Renal injury ( raised creatinine 1.6 mg/dl). Since then he was on conservative managenment. 6 months back, he developed bilateral lower limb swelling, insidious in onset, gradually progressive, pitting type, aggravated on work and prolonged standing, relieved on rest. Lower limb swelling was initially till ankle now progressed till knee.

He also complains of sob since 3 months, initially on ordinary physical activity that has gradually progressed to sob at less than ordinary physical activity, limiting his daily activities. Since jan, he also had complaints of Breathlessness in supine position (orthopnea). No seasonal or diurnal variation in breathlessness. Not associated with cough, cold. In December 2023, he also had complaints of vomiting 4-5 episodes per day, watery content, non projectile nonbilious relived on medication . 

He was only on milk from dec and did not take any food because of the vomitings. He also had complaints of facial puffiness since jan. Complaints of decreased urinary output since January 2024. In jan the severity and frequency of the episodes also increased hence he went to the local nalgonda hospital where they did the investigations and diagnosed as kidney failure and advised to go to NIMS, Hyderabad for further treatment; At NIMS, he underwent 4 cycles of hemodialysis in the month of feb. He came to our hospital in march and is continuing the hemodialysis.

02/07/24, 10:27 pm - Meta AI: Based on the case report, I'll thematically analyze the content by addressing the four points you specified:

*Coding:*

- Initial codes:

    - Hypertension

    - Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

    - Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF)

    - Anemia

    - Hemodialysis

    - Fluid restriction

    - Medications (Nifedipine, Telmisartan, Torsemide, Metaprolol, Shelcal-CT, Orofer-XT, Arkamine, EPO, Iron Sucrose)

*Categorization:*

- Categories:

    - Diagnosis

    - Medical History

    - Medications

    - Laboratory Results

    - Imaging Studies

    - Treatment Plan

    - Follow-up

- Subcategories:

    - Diagnosis: CKD, HFpEF, Anemia, Hypertension

    - Medical History: Hypertension, CKD, Hemodialysis

    - Medications: Antihypertensives, Diuretics, Iron supplements

    - Laboratory Results: Hemoglobin, Blood Urea, Serum Creatinine, eGFR

    - Imaging Studies: 2D Echo, Ultrasound (Renal Parameters)

*Theme Identification:*

- Emerging themes:

    - Management of CKD and HFpEF

    - Importance of fluid restriction and medication adherence

    - Impact of hypertension on cardiac function

    - Need for regular laboratory monitoring and imaging studies

*Theme Representation:*

- Learning points:

    - CKD and HFpEF require careful management to prevent complications.

    - Fluid restriction and medication adherence are crucial in managing HFpEF.

    - Hypertension can lead to cardiac dysfunction and must be controlled.

    - Regular monitoring of laboratory results and imaging studies is essential for effective management.

- Key findings:

    - Patient's HFpEF diagnosis was confirmed using the HFA-PEFF diagnostic algorithm.

    - Patient experienced acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema due to non-adherence to fluid restriction.

    - Patient's hypertension was controlled with the addition of clonidine to the treatment regimen.

These themes and learning points highlight the importance of careful management and monitoring of patients with CKD and HFpEF, as well as the need for patient education on fluid restriction and medication adherence.

11/07/24, 8:55 am - Dr Rakesh Biswas HOD: @13135550002 What are your thoughts on clinical complexity in the management of patients with both heart failure and renal failure? 

What is already known to the world about it now?

Once you share that we shall share our case data one by one for you to analyse each of them thematically to demonstrate the markers of clinical complexity around the illness outcomes in each of those heart failure with renal failure patients, such as difficult diagnosis leading to over-testing and overtreatment or low resources in terms of information capture by clinicians reflected in poor information continuity around each patient. In your thematic analysis do explicitly mention what the world knew before it encountered each patient data and what new knowledge did the patient data contribute.

Patient sought for consultation at nalgonda govt. Hospital and was diagnosed to be having renal disease and started on conservative management.

After 2 months patient started noticing decreased urine output, and sought for review consultation and used medications that is increasing his urine output. After 1 years of treatment patient started having breathlessness on exertion that was gradually progressed to breathlessness at rest, and he was rushed to hospital and initiated on hemodialysis as his serum creatinine was high ( data not available), having swelling of entire body and no urinary output.

Course in the hospital:

A 40 year male known case of Stage V chronic kidney disease on maintainence hemodialysis and HFrEF was clinically presented to casuality with above mentioned complaints. Necessary investigations were done, he underwent 2 sessions of maintainence hemodialysis on 22nd and 25th January; On 28th he was brought to casuality with complaints of altered sensorium since 1 day (27th January); History of fever spike since 2 days, which are of high grade associated with chills and rigors, relieved upon taking after antipyretic medication. His PR 50bpm; BP 110/80 mmHg; RR 22 cpm; GRBS 60mg/dl, for which 25% dextrose was infused, then GRBS was 208 mg/dl; GCS E3V3M5. His blood urea 127 and serum creatinine was 6.0, he was taken up for hemodialysis. His sensorium improved after hemodialysis and GCS was E4V4M6. His Blood urea 44 and serum creatinine 3.9 mg/dl. He underwent another hemodialysis session on 29/01/23. He was started on oral antibiotic medications. He underwent maintainence hemodialysis on 1st, 3rd and 5th February. On 04/02/2023 his Hb was 7.2 gr/dl; On 06/02/2023 at 12:16 AM, patient complained of sudden onset breathlessness, and was tachypnic; he was shifted to ICU and connected to ECG monitor, which showed ventricular fibrillation, immediately 360J of shock was deivered but as patient became unresponsive, central pulses were absent and BP was non recordable; immediately CPR was initiated according to ACLS guidelines and was intubated during CPR, CPR was continued for 30 minutes. Inspite of the above resuscitative efforts, the patient was declared dead at 12:59 AM, as ECG showed flat line with no electrical activity.

11/07/24, 8:55 am - Meta AI: Thank you for sharing the case report. Based on the provided information, I'll analyze the data thematically, highlighting the markers of clinical complexity around the illness outcomes.

*Pre-existing knowledge:*

- Heart failure (HF) and renal failure are comorbidities that pose significant challenges in patient management.

- The coexistence of HF and renal failure increases the risk of adverse events, such as fluid overload, electrolyte imbalance, and medication toxicity.

- Accurate diagnosis and treatment of both conditions are crucial to prevent complications and improve patient outcomes.

*New knowledge from this case report:*

- The patient's young age (39 years) and occupation (insurance agent and farmer) highlight the importance of considering extrinsic factors in patient management.

- The presence of anemia, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage V on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) underscores the complexity of managing multiple comorbidities.

- The patient's history of alcohol and tobacco use adds another layer of complexity in terms of potential drug interactions and organ damage.

- The development of severe concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), moderate left ventricular dysfunction, and global hypokinesia emphasizes the need for close monitoring of cardiac function in patients with HF and renal failure.

- The patient's episodes of intra-dialytic hypotension, breathlessness, and eventual mortality despite receiving appropriate treatment underscore the challenges in managing HF and renal failure.

*Markers of clinical complexity:*

- Multimorbidity (HF, CKD, anemia, hypertension)

- Comorbid substance abuse (alcohol and tobacco)

- Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

- Need for close monitoring of cardiac function and fluid status

- High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

- Eventual mortality despite appropriate treatment

Please feel free to share the next case report, and I'll be happy to analyze it thematically, highlighting the markers of clinical complexity around the illness outcomes.

11/07/24, 12:42 pm - Meta AI: Thank you for sharing the case report. Based on the provided information, I'll analyze the data thematically, highlighting the markers of clinical complexity around the illness outcomes.

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

- Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension are comorbidities that pose significant challenges in patient management.

- The coexistence of CKD and hypertension increases the risk of adverse events, such as fluid overload, electrolyte imbalance, and medication toxicity.

- Accurate diagnosis and treatment of each condition are crucial to prevent complications and improve patient outcomes.

_New knowledge from this case report:_

- The patient's age (55 years) and occupation (farmer and daily wage laborer) highlight the importance of considering age-related changes and occupational hazards in patient management.

- The presence of CKD stage V on maintenance hemodialysis, hypertension, and a history of NSAID abuse emphasizes the complexity of managing multiple comorbidities.

- The patient's history of smoking and alcohol consumption adds another layer of complexity in terms of potential drug interactions and organ damage.

- The development of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), severe left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and moderate LV dysfunction highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment of cardiac conditions.

- The patient's irregularity with dialysis and medications underscores the importance of patient education and adherence to treatment plans.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

- Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension, HFrEF, LVH)

- Comorbid substance abuse (smoking and alcohol consumption)

- Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

- Need for close monitoring of cardiac function and fluid status

- High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

- Eventual mortality despite appropriate treatment.

Please feel free to share the next case report, and I'll be happy to analyze it thematically, highlighting the markers of clinical complexity around the illness outcomes.

CASE HISTORY:

59 year female, Farmer and home maker, resident of Nalgonda who was apparently asymptomatic till 30 years of age, she had alleged history of RTA, causing fracture of right leg, she was taken her to near by village for fixing her fractured leg with sticks, fixing was done but practice was not unioned. So she was taken to government hospital, where fracture fixation was done with surgery. Since then she had complaints of pain, for which she used to take NSAIDS, twice in a week tablets daily (exact dose was not known). 12 years ago, she had complaints of headache, neck pain for which she sought consulate at local hospital and was diagnosed with Hypertension, since then she was using antihypertensive medications. After 5 years, she had complaints of easy fatiguability, pedal edema for which she went to suryapet and at that time she was informed that her kidneys are in failure and has to use oral medications for the same. She used to get consultations every 2 months in hyderabad. 10 months ago she had complaints of nausea and vomiting, pedal edema till ankles, breathless on exertion, orthopnea and loss of appatite for which she went to regular checkup and her creatinine was high and advised to undergo dialysis (indication was not known).

Date of Follow-up: 05/06/2023

Case History : A 48 year female, farmer, resident who of Mallepalli who was apparently asymptomatic 2 years ago 

had complaints of generalized body pains, Fever and cold, headache for which she visited local practitioner. She was diagnosed to be Hypertensive and started on antihypertensive medications. She started taking OTC NSAIDS, as she was having body pains and knee pains after coming from work, she usually takes 1 tablet every 3 to 4 days and also gets Diclophenac injections once in a while. After 1 year, she started having complaints of burning micturition and took medications from the practitioner and got relieved. At that time her BP was high and the antihypertensive which she was using previously has been changed( Nicardia 20mg/OD). After 2 months, she started noticing decrease in urinary output and swelling of bilateral lower limbs that are not relieved on taking rest. After 8 months she had complaints of fever, nausea, vomiting and marked decrease in urinary output (less than previous output), for which she was taken to hospital by her son. There she underwent workup and diagnosed with renal failure and advised to undergo hemodialysis after staying in hospital for 3 days, as her edema was not resolving. She was initiated on henodialysis. She underwent 4 sessions of hemodialysis in our hospital and did not came for MHD. After 2 weeks she presented with complaints of facial puffiness and pedal edema till the level of thigh. She was initiated again on Maintainence hemodialysis.

11/07/24, 6:54 pm - Meta AI: Thank you for sharing the case report. Based on the provided information, I'll analyze the data thematically, highlighting the markers of clinical complexity around the illness outcomes.

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

- Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension are comorbidities that pose significant challenges in patient management.

- The coexistence of CKD and hypertension increases the risk of adverse events, such as fluid overload, electrolyte imbalance, and medication toxicity.

- Accurate diagnosis and treatment of each condition are crucial to prevent complications and improve patient outcomes.

_New knowledge from this case report:_

- The patient's age (49 years) and occupation (farmer) highlight the importance of considering age-related changes and occupational hazards in patient management.

- The presence of CKD stage V on maintenance hemodialysis, hypertension, and a history of NSAID abuse emphasizes the complexity of managing multiple comorbidities.

- The patient's history of generalized body pains, fever, and headache highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment of renal impairment.

- The development of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and left ventricular systolic dysfunction highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment of cardiac conditions.

- The patient's irregularity with dialysis and medications underscores the importance of patient education and adherence to treatment plans.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

- Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension, HFrEF, LVH)

- Comorbid substance abuse (NSAID abuse)

- Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

- Need for close monitoring of cardiac function and fluid status

- High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

- Eventual mortality despite appropriate treatment.

Please feel free to share the next case report, and I'll be happy to analyze it thematically, highlighting the markers of clinical complexity around the illness outcomes.

DOD:1/12/2022

Date of Follow-up: 05/06/2023

Case History : A 48 year female, farmer, resident who of Mallepalli who was apparently asymptomatic 2 years ago 

had complaints of generalized body pains, Fever and cold, headache for which she visited local practitioner. She was diagnosed to be Hypertensive and started on antihypertensive medications. She started taking OTC NSAIDS, as she was having body pains and knee pains after coming from work, she usually takes 1 tablet every 3 to 4 days and also gets Diclophenac injections once in a while. After 1 year, she started having complaints of burning micturition and took medications from the practitioner and got relieved. At that time her BP was high and the antihypertensive which she was using previously has been changed( Nicardia 20mg/OD). After 2 months, she started noticing decrease in urinary output and swelling of bilateral lower limbs that are not relieved on taking rest. After 8 months she had complaints of fever, nausea, vomiting and marked decrease in urinary output (less than previous output), for which she was taken to hospital by her son. There she underwent workup and diagnosed with renal failure and advised to undergo hemodialysis after staying in hospital for 3 days, as her edema was not resolving. She was initiated on henodialysis. She underwent 4 sessions of hemodialysis in our hospital and did not came for MHD. After 2 weeks she presented with complaints of facial puffiness and pedal edema till the level of thigh. She was initiated again on Maintainence hemodialysis.

12/07/24, 12:12 am - Meta AI: Based on the provided case report, I'll highlight the key points and my analysis:

Key Points:

1. 66-year-old male with a history of hypertension (8 years) and CKD (3 years), on hemodialysis for 2 years.

2. Presented with shortness of breath, pedal edema, and decreased urine output.

3. Diagnosed with stage V CKD, hypertension, and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.

4. Received treatment, including hemodialysis, medications, and dietary restrictions.

Analysis:

This case report highlights the complexity of managing multiple comorbidities, including CKD, hypertension, and heart failure. The patient's history of UTI, abdominal pain, and nausea/vomiting underscores the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment. The patient's ongoing dialysis and medication regimen emphasize the need for close monitoring and aggressive management of comorbidities.

Markers of clinical complexity:

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension, heart failure)

2. Comorbid musculoskeletal symptoms (pedal edema)

3. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

4. Need for close monitoring of cardiac function and fluid status

5. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

6. History of UTI and abdominal pain, which adds complexity to CKD management

7. Long-standing hypertension, which increases the risk of cardiovascular events

Key Points:

1. 59-year-old male with a history of hypertension (20 years), CKD (2.5 years), and dialysis dependence (1.5 years), presented with SOB, decreased urine output, and pedal edema.

2. He had a history of alcoholism (30 years) and smoking (25 years).

3. Echo cardiogram showed mild LVH, dilated RA and LA, good left ventricular systolic function, grade-I left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, and moderate TR with PAH.

4. He experienced intra-dialytic hypotension, post-dialytic hypotension, and acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema.

5. He died due to cardiogenic shock and multi-organ failure.

Analysis:

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. CKD and hypertension can lead to heart failure.

2. Diabetes can increase the risk of CKD progression.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of close monitoring and aggressive management of comorbidities in patients with CKD, hypertension, and heart failure.

2. The potential for CKD progression despite medical management.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension, heart failure, CAD)

2. Comorbid substance abuse (alcoholism and smoking)

3. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

4. Need for close monitoring of cardiac function and fluid status

5. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

6. History of non-adherence to medication and diet, which adds complexity to management

7. Long-standing hypertension, which increases the risk of cardiovascular events

Key Points:

1. 61-year-old male with a history of hypertension (8 years), diabetes mellitus (6 years), and chronic kidney disease (1.5 years), presented with decreased urine output, pedal edema, and shortness of breath.

2. He was diagnosed with Stage V CKD and was on maintenance hemodialysis.

3. Echo cardiogram showed mild LVH, good left ventricular systolic function, grade-I left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, and minimal pericardial effusion.

4. He experienced acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema and died due to cardiogenic shock and multi-organ failure.

Analysis:

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. CKD and hypertension can lead to heart failure.

2. Diabetes can increase the risk of CKD progression.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of close monitoring and aggressive management of comorbidities in patients with CKD, hypertension, and diabetes.

2. The potential for CKD progression despite medical management.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension, diabetes)

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of cardiac function and fluid status

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

5. Long-standing diabetes and hypertension, which increase the risk of cardiovascular events

2. She was initiated on dialysis and managed with fluid and salt restriction, medications (Nicardia, Telma, Lasix, Shelcal), and iron sucrose injections.

3. Echo cardiogram showed mild LVH, good left ventricular systolic function, and minimal pericardial effusion.

4. She did not experience any major adverse events during the follow-up period.

Analysis:

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. CKD and hypertension can lead to heart failure.

2. Close monitoring and management of fluid status and blood pressure are crucial in patients with CKD and hypertension.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of regular follow-up and monitoring of patients with CKD and hypertension to prevent complications.

2. The potential for improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms with appropriate management.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension)

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of fluid status and blood pressure

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

The patient's history of headache and pedal edema, as well as the presence of shortness of breath, suggest a complex clinical picture. However, with appropriate management, the patient did not experience any major adverse events during the follow-up period, highlighting the importance of regular monitoring and management in patients with CKD and hypertension.

12/07/24, 7:25 am - Meta AI: Based on the provided case report, I'll highlight the key points and my analysis:

Key Points:

1. 54-year-old male with a history of hypertension (2 years), chronic kidney disease (2.5 years), and coronary artery disease, presented with bilateral pedal edema and decreased urine output.

2. He was initiated on dialysis and managed with fluid and salt restriction, medications (Nicardia, Orofer XT, Shelcal CT, Lasix, Telma, Metaprolol, Arkamine), and iron sucrose injections.

3. Echo cardiogram showed mild LVH, good left ventricular systolic function, and minimal pericardial effusion.

4. He experienced a decrease in breathlessness and pedal edema, and an improvement in renal function during the follow-up period.

Analysis:

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. CKD and hypertension can lead to heart failure.

2. Close monitoring and management of fluid status and blood pressure are crucial in patients with CKD and hypertension.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of regular follow-up and monitoring of patients with CKD and hypertension to prevent complications.

2. The potential for improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms with appropriate management.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension, CAD)

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of fluid status and blood pressure

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

The patient's history of pedal edema, decreased urine output, and breathlessness, suggest a complex clinical picture. However, with appropriate management, the patient showed improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms, highlighting the importance of regular monitoring and management in patients with CKD and hypertension.

12/07/24, 8:50 am - Meta AI: Based on the provided case report, I'll highlight the key points and my analysis:

Key Points:

1. 54-year-old male with a history of hypertension (10 years), diabetes mellitus (5 years), and stage V CKD (5 months), presented with decreased urine output, pedal edema, and shortness of breath.

2. He was initiated on dialysis and managed with fluid and salt restriction, medications (Lasix, Nicardia, Orofer XT, Telma, Shelcal CT, iron sucrose, and epoetin).

3. Echo cardiogram showed good LV systolic function, grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction, and trivial TR with PAH, mild AR.

4. He experienced an improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms during the follow-up period.

Analysis:

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. CKD, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus can lead to heart failure and kidney disease progression.

2. Close monitoring and management of fluid status, blood pressure, and blood glucose are crucial in patients with CKD, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of regular follow-up and monitoring of patients with CKD, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus to prevent complications.

2. The potential for improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms with appropriate management.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension, diabetes mellitus)

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of fluid status, blood pressure, and blood glucose

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema)

The patient's history of pedal edema, decreased urine output, and shortness of breath, suggest a complex clinical picture. However, with appropriate management, the patient showed improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms, highlighting the importance of regular monitoring and management in patients with CKD, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus.

12/07/24, 9:58 am - Meta AI: Based on the provided case report, I'll highlight the key points and my analysis:

Key Points:

1. 55-year-old male laborer with a history of type 2 diabetes (20 years), hypertension (15 years), CKD (1 year), and hemodialysis (6 months), presented with fever, generalized weakness, burning micturition, cough, multiple joint pains, and altered sensorium.

2. He was managed with fluid and salt restriction, medications (Nicardia, Lasix, iron sucrose, and epoetin), and dialysis.

3. Echo cardiogram showed mild LVH, good LV systolic and diastolic function, trivial AR, and mild TR.

4. He experienced an improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms during the follow-up period, but later succumbed to mortality due to acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema.

Analysis:

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. Diabetes, hypertension, and CKD can lead to heart failure, kidney disease progression, and increased risk of infections.

2. Close monitoring and management of fluid status, blood pressure, and blood glucose are crucial in patients with diabetes, hypertension, and CKD.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of regular follow-up and monitoring of patients with diabetes, hypertension, CKD, and hemodialysis to prevent complications.

2. The potential for improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms with appropriate management.

3. The high risk of adverse events like acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema and mortality in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (diabetes, hypertension, CKD, hemodialysis)

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of fluid status, blood pressure, and blood glucose

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, mortality)

12/07/24, 10:14 am - Meta AI: This case report describes a 35-year-old male farmer who presented with pedal edema and decreased urinary output, diagnosed with stage V chronic kidney disease (CKD) on hemodialysis, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), mild atrial regurgitation (AR), tricuspid regurgitation (TR) with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), and mild mitral regurgitation (MR).

The patient had a history of hypertension for 10 years, which was not well-controlled, leading to kidney damage and progression to CKD. He also developed heart failure, which was managed with medications and dialysis.

The patient's condition improved with treatment, as evidenced by the reduction in blood urea and creatinine levels, and the improvement in eGFR. The echo cardiogram also showed improvement in left ventricular function and reduction in valve regurgitation.

The patient did not experience any adverse events or complications during the follow-up period, such as intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, or mortality.

This case report highlights the importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, hypertension, and heart failure to prevent complications and improve outcomes.

_Case Report 36_

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. Hypertension, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) can lead to heart failure, kidney damage, and anemia.

2. CKD can progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis.

3. Heart failure can lead to shortness of breath, pedal edema, and decreased urine output.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, hypertension, and heart failure to prevent complications.

2. The potential for improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms with appropriate management.

3. The high risk of adverse events like acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, cardiac tamponade, and mortality in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, hypertension, diabetes, heart failure, anemia)

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of fluid status, blood pressure, and blood glucose

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, mortality)

This case report highlights the importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, hypertension, and heart failure to prevent complications and improve outcomes. The patient's condition improved with treatment, but he still experienced adverse events like acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema and mortality, emphasizing the need for close monitoring and aggressive management.

Chief complaint :

A 58 year male who was apparently asymptomatic till 4 years ago, then he had complaints of nausea, vomiting, burning sensation in feet, decreased urine output  for which he went to local hospital and was diagnosed with diabetes and renal failure, and was started on medication. 

Since 2 years he wasy having increase in pedal pH and decresed urinary output. Since 6 days he was having compalints 

   of Breathlessness on exertion.

_Case Report 41_

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. Diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease (CKD) can lead to anemia, fluid overload, and electrolyte imbalances.

2. CKD can progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis.

3. Heart failure can lead to shortness of breath, pedal edema, and decreased exercise tolerance.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, heart failure, and diabetes to prevent complications.

2. The potential for improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms with appropriate management.

3. The high risk of adverse events like acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, cardiac tamponade, and mortality in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, heart failure, diabetes, hypertension)

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of fluid status, blood pressure, and blood glucose

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, mortality)

This case report highlights the importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, heart failure, and diabetes to prevent complications and improve outcomes. The patient's condition improved with treatment, but he developed moderate TR with PAH, emphasizing the importance of close monitoring and aggressive management.

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can lead to anemia, fluid overload, and electrolyte imbalances.

2. CKD can progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis.

3. Heart failure can lead to shortness of breath, pedal edema, and decreased exercise tolerance.

4. Hypertension can lead to cardiac complications like left ventricular hypertrophy and pulmonary arterial hypertension.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, heart failure, and hypertension to prevent complications.

2. The potential for improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms with appropriate management.

3. The high risk of adverse events like acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, cardiac tamponade, and mortality in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of fluid status, blood pressure, and blood glucose

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, mortality)

This case report highlights the importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, heart failure, and hypertension to prevent complications and improve outcomes. The patient's condition improved with treatment, but he developed severe concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and moderate tricuspid regurgitation with pulmonary arterial hypertension, emphasizing the importance of close monitoring and aggressive management. Unfortunately, the patient expired due to complications.

12/07/24, 12:02 pm - Meta AI: Based on the case report, I will highlight the following points:

*Chief Complaints:*

- Shortness of breath (SOB) for 3 months

- Pedal edema for 3 months

*History of Present Illness:*

- Difficulty breathing, SOB grade III-IV

- Pedal edema, pitting type, worsened on exertion

- Diagnosed with kidney failure at Nalgonda hospital

- Treated at KIMS Narketpally and NIMS Hyd

- Condition worsened, leading to ICU admission and hemodialysis

*Investigations:*

- Hb: 7.8 g/dL (initial), 7.5 g/dL (follow-up)

- Blood Urea: 219 mg/dL (initial), 70 mg/dL (follow-up)

- Sr. Creatinine: 11.0 mg/dL (initial), 5.3 mg/dL (follow-up)

- eGFR: 6 mL/min/1.72m² (initial), 14 mL/min/1.72m² (follow-up)

- 2D Echo: Severe concentric LVH, moderate TR with PAH (initial), mild TR with PAH (follow-up)

*Diagnosis:*

- Stage V CKD on hemodialysis

- HFpEF with severe concentric LVH

- Anemia of chronic kidney disease

- Hypertension

*Outcomes:*

- Intra-dialytic hypotension: No

- Post-dialytic hypotension: No

- Hypotension requiring inotropic support: No

- Acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema: Yes

- Cardiac tamponade: No

- Ischemic heart disease: No

- Arrhythmias: No

- Mortality: Yes

- Emergency hospitalization: Yes

Please let me know if you would like me to highlight anything else.

12/07/24, 12:03 pm - Meta AI: Based on the case report, I would suggest the following:

1. *Continuation of hemodialysis*: The patient is currently undergoing hemodialysis, which is necessary for their survival. The goal is to maintain adequate fluid and electrolyte balance, manage blood pressure, and reduce symptoms.

2. *Blood pressure control*: The patient's blood pressure needs to be closely monitored and controlled to prevent further cardiac damage and fluid overload.

3. *Fluid and salt restriction*: The patient should continue to follow a fluid and salt-restricted diet to minimize fluid overload and prevent further cardiac strain.

4. *Management of anemia*: The patient's anemia needs to be managed with iron supplements and erythropoietin injections to reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications.

5. *Close monitoring of cardiac function*: Regular echocardiograms and electrocardiograms should be performed to monitor the patient's cardiac function and detect any potential complications.

6. *Medication adjustment*: The patient's medications may need to be adjusted to optimize blood pressure control, fluid management, and cardiac function.

By following these recommendations, the patient's quality of life can be improved, and their risk of adverse events and complications can be minimized.

_Case Report 48_

_Pre-existing knowledge:_

1. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can lead to anemia, fluid overload, and electrolyte imbalances.

2. CKD can progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis.

3. Heart failure can lead to shortness of breath, pedal edema, and decreased exercise tolerance.

4. Hypertension can lead to cardiac complications like left ventricular hypertrophy and pulmonary arterial hypertension.

_New knowledge from the case report:_

1. The importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, heart failure, and hypertension to prevent complications.

2. The potential for improvement in renal function and reduction in symptoms with appropriate management.

3. The high risk of adverse events like acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, cardiac tamponade, and mortality in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease.

_Markers of clinical complexity:_

1. Multimorbidity (CKD, heart failure, hypertension, anemia)

2. Complexity in medication management (multiple drugs, potential interactions)

3. Need for close monitoring of fluid status, blood pressure, and blood glucose

4. High risk of adverse events (intra-dialytic hypotension, acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema, mortality)

This case report highlights the importance of regular monitoring and management of patients with CKD, heart failure, and hypertension to prevent complications and improve outcomes. The patient's condition improved with treatment, but he developed mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy, grade I diastolic dysfunction, and trivial AR and MR, emphasizing the importance of close monitoring and aggressive management.

History of present illness.

Patient was apparently asymptomatic one yr back, later he developed blurring of vision in both eyes, for which he went to the hospital and was diagnosed with Hypertension (hypertensive changes in the retina - papilledema) and Renal injury ( raised creatinine 1.6 mg/dl). Since then he was on conservative managenment. 6 months back, he developed bilateral lower limb swelling, insidious in onset, gradually progressive, pitting type, aggravated on work and prolonged standing, relieved on rest. Lower limb swelling was initially till ankle now progressed till knee.

He also complains of sob since 3 months, initially on ordinary physical activity that has gradually progressed to sob at less than ordinary physical activity, limiting his daily activities. Since jan, he also had complaints of Breathlessness in supine position (orthopnea). No seasonal or diurnal variation in breathlessness. Not associated with cough, cold. In December 2023, he also had complaints of vomiting 4-5 episodes per day, watery content, non projectile nonbilious relived on medication . 

He was only on milk from dec and did not take any food because of the vomitings. He also had complaints of facial puffiness since jan. Complaints of decreased urinary output since January 2024. In jan the severity and frequency of the episodes also increased hence he went to the local nalgonda hospital where they did the investigations and diagnosed as kidney failure and advised to go to NIMS, Hyderabad for further treatment; At NIMS, he underwent 4 cycles of hemodialysis in the month of feb. He came to our hospital in march and is continuing the hemodialysis.
