Patient was noted to have shallow breathing per EMS staff, and was subsequently brought to the hospital. Per family, patient lives alone and was feeling well - they had spoken to her two days prior to the event. Per family patient did not have recent fevers, vomiting, diarrhea, or cough. Also no recent medication changes or trauma. PMH includes stroke approx. 8 years ago, gout, HLD, HTN, and RLS. BP upon admission was 126/93, HR 123, temp 37.1 degrees Celcius, RR 28. Patient noted to smell of urine. CT showed large completed right sided infarct consistent with MCA stroke. Per neurology the lesion was not recoverable and patient would be unlikely to regain any function. Family was notified and poor prognosis was discussed.

Daughter requested to pursue comfort measures for patient, therefore she was transferred to hospice care. Patient passed away the following day on 3/23/21.

Patient became lethargic, extremely tired, unable to care well for self. Patient had no appetite, refused most food and spent many hours simply sitting in her chair. She felt that she was having a heart attack and called 911 using her emergency response button on 2/21/2021. Doctors indicated that the patient's life was in serious danger, but because of age they were hesitant to try to remove the clot pressing on her heart. She was only allowed to go back home because we utilized Hospice. When asked about her life expectancy, we were told she could die any minute or might live a few more months, but that she was not expected to live much longer. SHE WAS IN GOOD HEALTH PRIOR TO THE IMMUNIZATION!
