day 4 in PICU

Sunday March 17, 2013

Aaron continues to struggle with his oxygen level but has been able to stay on the high flow cannula. Hey have added hypertonic water to his breathing treatments.The Dr also wanted him to try the vest for CPT. We tried it twice and he had a seizure both times. They decided to go back to the Flimm Fighter since he tolerated that better. His xray this morning was worse than yesterday so they switched his antibiotic to Zosan. He continues to need insulin to manage his blood sugar so they have discontinued the TPN and inserted a NG tube. This afternoon his sats dropped to 0 and he stopped breathing for a few moments during a seizure. His neuro increased his Vimpat and we are still waiting for his Sabril to arrive. He has been awake for a few seconds today but is stil very lethargic.
