LOCATION: Inpatient, HospitalPATIENT: Florence DodgePHYSICIAN: George Orbitz, M.D.DIALYSIS PROGRESS NOTE: The patient is evaluated on peritoneal dialysis. She is doing well with that. She is using 1.5%. No ultrafiltration. In fact, ultrafiltration is negative. Her peritonitis seems to be improving today since she has no pain. Her appetite is good and she is not having any more diarrhea. Her vital signs are stable except that her blood pressure is a little high, 180s/90s, due to hypertensive kidney disease with ESRD. Temperature is 37deg C. We will continue with antibiotic treatment and continue to watch her blood pressure. She has no edema right now and will continue to use 1.5%. We possibly could use 2.5% over the weekend. The patient agrees with the plan. Will probably plan on discharging her soon.
