DY 63 yo Male Ishemia of LR and Hematoma
Patho:
DY is a current smoker, 2 packs a day which plays a huge factor in his HTN and this ischemia incident. The chemicals that are in the cigarettes causes damage to the arterials and triggers inflammation. These mechanisms can cause plaque buildup which than on occlude an artery, cutting off blood flow causing an ischemia attack. His chronic HTN play a factor as it is also harms the arterials and makes them resilient, causing them to harden.

Psych/Soc: DY lives with his wife and works in construction. He has suffered from chronic back pain and has had prior opioid dependancy and he is adamant of minimal use of opioids to address his pain d/t this. He also feels that his wife is unable to handle the stress of his pain and the management of it and told me many times "i take care of my wife, she doesn't need to deal with my pain." DY is honest, straighforward with his limitation, but is motivated to get better and is compliant with cares and PT activities. I asked if he had any other family support in the area and he said no. He is in alot of pain d/t the swelling of his scrotum and penis and started to get frustrated that the only way we could address his pain was with an opioid.
DC:
He will be going home. His wife is not comfortable with helping with his cares at this time.
DY would like to get his pain more under control and managed before he goes home as he doesn't feel his wife could help him with it.
He will have a FWW and is ambulating with PT to help with the swelling of his scrotum and penis.
DY received education on his medications and was encouraged to follow the regiment.
Broached cessation of smoking and is not intereseted at this time.
