gynecological history is negative and reports no vaginal discharge. The only new
information reported is that she recently had sexual intercourse with a new male

J.S. is an 80 -year-old patient who resides in a local nursing home. He recently
became confused and then fell while ambulating to the bathroom three days ago.
Because of his confusion and fall, he was transferred to the acute care facility for
evaluation and treatment. Lab work revealed that the patient was very dehydrated
with hypernatremia identified and appropriate intravenous fluids started. Cystitis

excoriated skin between the buttocks and inner thighs due to urinary frequency and
dribbling. To help with skin healing and to prevent further urine leakage, an
indwelling catheter was inserted. Two days after the catheter was placed, the
