J.S. is an 80 -year-old patient who resides in a local nursing home. He recently
became confused and then fell while ambulating to the bathroom three days ago.
Because of his confusion and fall, he was transferred to the acute care facility for
evaluation and treatment. Lab work revealed that the patient was very dehydrated
with hypernatremia identified and appropriate intravenous fluids started. Cystitis
was also identified from the urinalysis. He was also noted to have red and
excoriated skin between the buttocks and inner thighs due to urinary frequency and
dribbling. To help with skin healing and to prevent further urine leakage, an
, indwelling catheter was inserted. Two days after the catheter was placed, the
patient spiked a fever of 102 degrees Fahrenheit associated with shaking chills. An
intense, foul odor was noted in the urine. On examination of the flank area, the
patient yelled out -ANSWER-C. This patient would be diagnosed with
pyelonephritis.
