feeling better

Maisie had a tough night with a lot of de-saturations. Maisie's oxygen supply was 80% at 6 litres. Maisie also required extra oxygen at times during the night.

Maisie had several blood gas checks with results that were as expected for Maisie so the nurses were not sure what was wrong. Maisie was also checked for infection and had a chest x-ray. The results of which aren't available yet.

Maisie's Hi-flow equipment was also changed a couple of times in case there was something wrong with it.

It is not sure what was wrong with Maisie yesterday nor during the night but this morning it was noticed that there was a vent open on the Hi-flow - once this was realised Maisie made a rapid recovery back to 40% oxygen and 4 litres and seems alot happier.

Maisie seems more like herself today and had gone to bed with oxygen down at 35%. Maisie is back on tube feeds for the moment to help her rest and recuperate after the last 24hrs.

Mummy and Daddy feel a little better today now that Maisie is back to her usual self.
