The pretreatment workup is summarized below. Pathology: 47-year-old female with new diagnosis of infiltrating intraductal adenocarcinoma involving the left breast and regional node. Further tests on tumor samples indicated ER (8%), PR (negative), HER2 (negative), Ki-67 (72%), and grade (poorly differentiated). Intrinsic subtype (luminal B, HER2-negative). Radiology: FDG-PET/CT indicated a 5.3 x 2.5 cm mass in the left breast which appeared to extend to the epidermis of the skin; one node in the left axilla was also involved with tumor. No other evidence of distant disease was visualized. Laboratory: CBC, liver, and kidney function tests WNL, alkaline phosphatase and calcium are normal also. Stage: IIB (T, N, M) List the most important prognostic factors in this patient with newly diagnosed breast cancer. Assess the patient's level of risk for relapse.

Patient: Winston Waller Physician: Morris Johnston, MD August 1, 2018 History This patient is a 73-year-old male nonsmoker with type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension. He presented to this ED with shortness of breath and was found to have had an acute myocardial infarction of the anterior wall of his heart showing an ST elevation that had previously been left untreated. He developed several complications, including renal failure from a combination of cardiogenic shock and toxicity from the dye used for emergency catheterization of his heart. Hemodialysis was started during this hospitalization because of his renal failure. After spending almost a month in the hospital and…
The following complete blood count (CBC) is completed for a client with chemotherapy-induced bone marrow suppression include: hemogiobin of 8.2 g/dL, hematocrit of 29%, platelet count of 160,000/ul, and white blood cell count of 2500/µL. The client was placed on filgrastim (Neupogen) 480 mcg SQ for 2 weeks. Which laboratory finding indicates that this therapy is effective? O The client's hemoglobin is 8.6 g/dL The client's hematocrit is > than 30% O The client's white blood cell is 3500/µl The client's platelet count is 165,000/µL
16-) Which of the following statements about Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRGS) is false? DRGS are used to standardize prospective payments by applying the formula "payment - case weight x adjusted payment rate", where the case weight represents the relative cost of a case in the DRG classification system and the adjusted payment rate converts that weight into a monetary value. Prospective payments calculated through DRGS are a way of introducing supply-side cost sharing. MS-DRGS stands for Medicare Severity-Diagnosis-Related Groups. They are the DRG classification system used by Medicare since 1983 to calculate prospective payments. There are over 750 MS-DRGS and each is assigned a relative weight to approximate the resource usage of the average case within that diagnosis category. Roughly speaking, MS-DRGS are similar to another classification system used by Medicare called Resource- Based Relative Value Scale (RBRVS). In fact, the MS-DRG classification system is used to calculate…
