D/C: Discharge Summaries - All Notes (continued) PRESENTING SITUATION:
is a 9 year old boy who was treated as an inpatient at on the
Neurotrauma/Rehabilitation program from
to
following a hemispherectomy on
has been seen through the Psychology Programs in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine for
Health and Behavior Interventions to assess and treat biopsychosocial factors affecting his medical recovery,
in particular his adjustment to hospitalization, treatment and rehabilitation. NEUROCOGNITIVE STATUS:
In the Rehabilitation Psychology Initial Assessment,
pre-injury cognitive development was reported
to be significantly impaired for his age. His father reports normal development and health until 3 years of age
when he became quite ill with high fevers and subsequent coma. He was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.
was then hospitalized and began having seizures during this time. The family was subsequently
placed in a refugee camp and cared for there until coming to the United States in
of
Initially
his seizures occurred a few times per week but rapidly increased to several daily, despite medications. Since
his arrival in the U.S., he has had multiple admissions for status epilepticus. During his initial hospitalization
following his surgery,
had a prolonged period of generalized lack of arousal and orientation. His initial
score on the COAT was in the significantly impaired range, indicating deficient overall orientation.
was unable to answer any questions and/or follow any commands. At discharge, his score on the COAT was
also in the significantly impaired range, indicating deficient overall orientation. A neurocognitive screening
/evaluation was conducted on
. Procedures used included Wechsler Abbreviated Intelligence Scale
(WASI-2), Symbol Search and Digit Span. However,
was unable to complete any of the tests even
when provided with multiple cues and support.
Results of evaluation and interpretations:
Behavior:
had considerable difficulty participating in this evaluation. The entire assessment was done
with his father and interpreter.
had significant difficulty engaging in the assessment. Multiple
attempts were made to describe and help
understand instructions to tasks. However,
was
unable to learn how to perform the different tasks. For example, he was unable to do any of the following:
name objects in a picture, point to a picture to match with others, and/or draw a line over similar symbols.
had significant difficulties understanding what he was being asked to do. He demonstrated an
impulsive response style and appeared to have considerable difficulty understanding the task at hand. He
demonstrated good general effort, but did not understand what was being asked of him. This evaluation is
believed to adequately represent
current neurocognitive abilities.
General cognitive abilities:
cognitive abilities appear to be significantly and globally impaired. He will require a high level of
support in order to promote a successful return to school. Proactive home/school communication will be
essential to provide a context for new learning.
Attention and working memory:
Attention is made up of various components including selective, sustained, and divided attention. Selective
attention refers to the ability to focus on relevant information and ignore irrelevant information. Sustained
attention refers to the ability to maintain attention over extended periods of time. Divided attention refers to the
ability to successfully attend to more than one feature or aspect at a time. Significant difficulties across all
areas of attention were noted.
requires constant support and cues to pay attention to any particular
task. He is also easily distracted as in unable to sustain his attention without significant support.
is easily
distracted by both internal and external stimuli.
was able to repeat some words in English and Somali, but he was unable to repeat a list of numbers.
Even when provided with objects to point to, in order to assess working memory without requiring him to
answer verbally, he was unable to perform this task.

D/C: Discharge Summaries - All Notes (continued) Mental processing speed:
Mental processing speed is the rate at which we take in, understand, integrate and respond to information. It is
an indicator of overall brain functioning efficiency that is highly sensitive to injury.
speed of mental
processing has been significantly affected by his injury, as expected given his significant cognitive
impairments.
New learning and memory:
ability to learn and recall newly learned information is severely impaired. He was unable to repeat
information regardless if it was given to him in English or Somali. He was able to learn and recall one phrase
in Somali used during a group activity. I had asked the interpreter how to say "good job" in Somali. Whenever
did something well, I used this phrase. From that moment on,
use this phrase whenever he saw
me.
is capable of learning and retaining information, if provided and practiced in rote fashion.
Social/Emotional status
Throughout his rehabilitation stay,
emotional presentation was predominately relaxed and friendly,
because he was with family members during the entire stay. Due to his extreme level of cognitive impairment,
will need to have careful attention paid to familiarizing him with new environments and people. Slow and
supported exposure to new people, positive reinforcement and encouragement have been helpful.
SUMMARY and RECOMMENDATIONS
1.
neurocognitive abilities are significantly affected at present and he demonstrates diminished
overall verbal, visual-perceptual, new learning, memory and attention abilities. He has significant reduced
speed of processing at the current time. Easy fatigability should be expected when he returns to more
stimulating and busy home and school environments.
2. It is recommended that
gradually increase his level of participation in his typical activities, including
return to school. The best situation for children and their families, during this important transition home, is a
well educated and well-functioning parent school team. Recommendation specific to
current needs
are included at the end of this report in the section titled Return to School. Finally,
Medical
Discharge, Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy and Speech-Language reports include assessment
information and further recommendation, including physical activity restrictions, for consideration in planning
his successful return to school. will return to Children's Hospital Colorado's Rehabilitation clinic on
and his Neurology physician for his one-month follow up appointments. at 8:30am to meet with me A more comprehensive evaluation through the Multidisciplinary Outpatient Rehabilitation Evaluation (M.O.R.E.)
Team in the Department of Rehabilitation of is recommended in one year in order to attain an updated
assessment of
neurocognitive profile and offer
consultation/recommendations. Please contact Chris Moores at (720-777-5470) to schedule an appointment
for the next year.
It was a pleasure working with
and his parents during his hospital stay. I will look forward to meeting
with them one month following his discharge, on
. Please do not hesitate to contact me or bring
questions/concerns to be discussed at this appointment. I am happy to be available for consultation or
questions at 720-777-3901 or [email protected] Javier Negron, Psy.D.

[email protected] RETURN TO SCHOOL PROTOCOL
Schedule and timing:
should re-enter school gradually starting with a few hours per day, increasing to
a half day and progressing to a full day as he tolerates it.
IEP:
will require significant Special Education support.
parents and school personnel are
encouraged to meet to develop IEP (Individualized Education Plan) before his return to school to identify the
appropriate school program for his level of needs.
Academic overview: Currently,
does not demonstrate any preschool level concepts, nor does he clearly
benefit from modeling of skills. He requires a classroom setting that provides maximal supports. Proactive
home/school communication will be essential in developing a safe and accessible learning environment for
at school. Electronically signed by Negron, Javier I. at

Brief Reason for Hospitalization:
is a 9 year old male admitted on for Seizure disorder [345.90] Please refer to H+P note for complete details of presenting illness.
The patient was admitted to the hospital on
and taken to the operating room that day where he
underwent an uncomplicated left functional hemispherectomy. He tolerated the procedure well and was
managed initially in the PICU. Endocrine was consulted and involved with the management of his diabetes and
insulin dosing. An EVD was placed at the time of surgery. He stayed in PICU until POD #2 secondary to poor
glucose control. Unable take po initially so NG placed and tube feedings started. His right hemiparesis was
dense postoperatively, with a right facial, but did begin to show signs of movement (especially with
unintentional movement). PT and OT were involved. His incision was healing well. He mobilized. He remained
afebrile. He had no seizures. He tolerated his tube feeds but did have tenuous glucose control with tube
feedings. On POD #7-8 he began to take po much better so NG feeds were held and he took all nourishment
by mouth. This also resulted in improved glucose control. His EVD was raised on POD #6 and clamped on
POD #7. MRI shunt series on POD #8 showed stable vents and expected postop change. His EVD was
removed. He continued to do well without seizures, fevers, or leaks from drain site or incision. He had just a
small subgaleal fluid collection. He was ready for transfer to the inpatient Rehab service. Brief Hospital Course (summary of care, services provided and significant findings):
