Nursing documentation dated February 13, 2025, at 4:47 PM indicated that Resident 1 was in her room yelling for help. Resident 1 was lethargic with confusion and stated that she did not feel well but could not explain why. Her skin was dusky in color, she could not hold her head up, and she was incontinent of a very large liquid stool. Nursing documentation dated February 14, 2025, at 12:11 AM revealed that Resident 1's blood pressure was low at 86/48 mm Hg (millimeters of mercury, the American Heart Association outlines a normal blood pressure reading of 130/80 mm Hg for adults.), her heart rate was low at 28 (The American Heart Association outlines a target heart rate for someone [AGE] years old or older as 75 to 128 beats per minute, bpm), she was pale in color, with increased respiratory effort, oxygen saturation was low on room air at 89 percent (normal oxygen saturation is greater than 90 percent). The writer contacted a provider on call who instructed staff to send Resident 1 to the hospital for evaluation. EMS (emergency medical service) personnel arrived at Resident 1's room and Resident 1's heart rate on a monitor varied from 24 to 32 bpm, and her blood pressure was 70/50 mm Hg. Resident 1 was transported out of the facility by EMS staff at 11:45 PM, .in guarded condition. Nursing documentation dated February 14, 2025, at 1:55 AM revealed that the hospital emergency department admitted Resident 1 for hyperkalemia (high blood potassium; potassium level was 8.8), and AKI with BUN of 96 mg/dL (blood urea nitrogen, test to measure the amount of urea nitrogen in your blood to see how well the kidneys are working, normal 6 to 20 milligrams per deciliter); creatinine 3.8 mg/dL (waste product of muscle breakdown, normal 0.5 to 1.0 milligrams per deciliter); and GFR of 12 (glomerular filtration rate, measure of how well your kidneys are removing waste from your blood, normal greater than 60). Review of hospital cardiology consult documentation dated February 14, 2025, at 10:42 AM revealed that Resident 1 was seen regarding hypotension (low blood pressure) and bradycardia (slow heart rate). Pt (patient) was discharged from (the hospital) to (the nursing home) back in Dec (December) where her digoxin, lisinopril and potassium were to be stopped but in review of the (nursing home) MR (medical record) and medication administration these medications were still being given, which then resulted pt to become (sic) back to (the hospital) in CHB (complete heart block) with AKI and digoxin toxicity. Her digoxin level was not drawn until later in admission after getting IVF (intravenous fluids) and her HR (heart rate) and electrolytes and kidney function starting to improve. And her digoxin level was elevated still at 1.9 ng/mL (nanograms per milliliter), which makes me assume it was even higher on admission. Recent admission in December with severe AKI (acute kidney injury) on CKD (chronic kidney disease) and at that time digoxin and lisinopril were discontinued given hyperkalemia and bradycardia .review of her med list from the nursing home indicates that despite discontinuation request in December has still been receiving metformin, lisinopril, potassium and digoxin, which have contributed to her current level of renal failure .digoxin should be discontinued, given her renal failure should not ever be resumed.

F 0684 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few bradycardic with HR in the twenties. Resident 1 was also found to have severe hyperkalemia of 8.8 mm/L (normal 3.5 to 5.1 millimoles per liter). Resident 1's AKI on CKD with metabolic acidosis (condition where blood becomes too acidic) and digoxin toxicity had since resolved. Of note, patient was discharged from (the hospital) to nursing home in December and it was recommended to stop digoxin, lisinopril and oral potassium but per nursing MR and medication administrations this (sic) were still being given. Which may have contributed to patient's current presentation. Interview with Employees 1 and 2 on February 27, 2025, at 1:45 PM confirmed that the facility did not implement Resident 1's hospital discharge physician orders for medication changes on December 29, 2024, and that staff continued to administer the medications until Resident 1's rehospitalization on February 14, 2025. 483.25 Quality of Care Previously cited deficiency 5/29/24 28 Pa.
