He is usually admitted for treatment of problems related to his severe COPD. He has been progressively short of breath. He has just started with an occasional cough productive of moderate amount of yellow sputum. His current temperature is 99.8. His history reveals no known allergies. He has difficulty voiding in the past with complaints of voiding frequently in small amounts and nocturia. He was diagnosed last year with Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy and underwent Transurethral Resection of the Prostate. He has suffered from Rheumatoid Arthritis for the last 5 years.

Because of his COPD, which greatly limits his physical exertion; J.P. is considered 100% disabled and has not worked for the past 8 years. In between hospital stays, he lives in a two-room apartment. He has a hot plate on which he cooks, but does not have a refrigerator. He shares a bathroom with ex-Navy buddies. In the hospital, J.P. is rather well-known and generally liked, because he is so familiar with the environment, he is often in an informal leadership position with new patients. His major complaint with the hospital is its non-smoking policy, strictly enforced.

Despite repeated teaching J.P. smokes, a pack and a half of unfiltered cigarettes a day. The basic physiology of his disease and its relationship have been explained to him repeatedly. He tells others that smoking is the only source of pleasure left to him. Whenever he is breathing easy enough, he walks to the sun room and lights a cigarette. “Live fast, love hard, die young—that’s my motto,” he frequently tells the nursing staff.

Upon exam J.P. states along with his other recent symptoms, he has not had much of an appetite and has been slightly nauseous. His doctor felt it was due to his medications. He has drunk 400 mL in the last 24 hours. He is alert and oriented x3, pupils are equal and reactive @3mm. He is HOH and wears glasses for reading. His color is dusky, skin is warm and dry. His resp are 26, regular with some use of shoulder and abdominal accessory muscles. O2 sat 88% RA. He always in orthopneic position in bed or in the chair. He is barrel chested and uses pursed lip breathing when he becomes SOB. Scattered rhonchi and expiratory wheezing are heard throughout both lung field. He has an occasional cough productive of a moderate amount of thick yellow sputum. His AP is 104 with 4 irregular beats per minute and a fair volume. BP 160/80. Bowel sounds are present in all 4 quadrants. His abdomen is soft and nondistended. Currently he has been voiding every 4-5h. His 24-hour urine output was 1000 mL (300 7-3, 400 3-11, and 300 11-7). His last BM was this AM-mod. soft brown BM. His lower extremities are pale and slightly cool to touch, Peripheral pulses are palpable bilaterally. Has 2+ pitting bilateral ankle edema.
