Hi all,
A short update from this morning. Nothing major other than a couple of instances last night where Anna's heart rate and blood pressure went below the comfort level. The night nurse explained that it is mainly because of the prongs of her SiPAP. Turns out the SiPAP doesn't fit her little nose very well and the prongs keep ending up loose. CPAP is Continuous Positive Air Pressure which has a single rate of oxygen % that it provides and SiPAP is a more advanced ventilator that provides bi-nasal CPAP with a high sensitivity so that the nurse can increase or decrease the level of oxygen as the saturation of the oxygen goes up or down.
Either way Anna is holding up pretty good. I will try to update again tonight after our visit.
