Adelina was still having a lot of air in her belly from the CPAP and since she tolerates having it out for a bit, Dr Cleary decided to give her a test drive on a nasal cannula. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_cannula Her heart rate was high today, so we're waiting on a call from the doctor and her respitory treatments were put on hold (so they don't increase it more).
She was set at 30% and her respitory was in the 70s and O2 at 100% the entire time. GO ADDY! Hopefully her belly was getting a rest from all that forced air from the CPAP. She was on the cannula for a total of 2.5 hours. Of course my camera battery was dead when I went to take her picture... but she looked very peaceful w/o the contraption on her face!
Feedings were put back on after a second round of belly and chest xrays to rule out inflamation in her intestines.
