He was [**Date Range **] by C-section to a 41yo Mom who is G-2 now P-2 for bleeding. Mom had [**Name2 (NI) 2369**] at 18 wks which was followed by PROM and placenta previa. Mom was on bedrest and followed and then presented again with PROM. Mom received Beta.
Baby was [**Name2 (NI) **] with apgars of 6,6 and 7 at 1,5 and 10 minutes of life. Infant cried and had HR >100 but had poor color and perfusion and fair tone. Infant was noted to spit up blood with attempted intubation in OR. ( Mom had [**Name2 (NI) 2543**] and there was blood in amniotic fluid that infant swallowed.) Blood was found by in stomach by sxn, no blood in lungs. Infant was intubated in OR after several attempts and was transferred to NICU in heated isolette after breif visit at Mom's bedside.
In NICU infant had normal vitals except for O2 Sat. Hand bagging took much effort with litte increase in O2 Sats. Decision was made to start Nitric Oxide with HFOV as life saving measure for this atypical 28 weeker who appeared to present with significant pulmonary HTN. Infant showed remarkable improvement in both pre and post ductal sats moments after NO started. Infant has had several blood gases and has been treated accordingly.
Echo showed no cardiac abnormalities. Infant BP began to drop and was started on Dobutamine and then Dopamine with improvement. Infant received several NS boluses as well before Dopa and Dobuta.
Infant started on TF of 100cc/kg/d of D10w via PIV. Received D10 bolus for low 2nd Dstick with good results. UAC and DLUVC placed. IVF then switched to those lines. Currently [**12-19**] NaAcetate w/ 1/2u heparin/cc via UAC, D10W w/[**12-19**] u hep/cc via primary port and Starter TPN D10 via secondary port. Infant remains NPO and has voided. Abd exam benign.
Blood cx and CBC w/diff drawn and sent. No shift. Started on Amp/Gent.
Infant received several doses of Pavulon and Fentanyl for comfort and sedation to better treat him. Infant now on Fentanyl drip.
Infant has stable temp on open warmer. Infant is nested on sheepskin with boundries for comfort and positioning during sedation.
This infant has gone up and down on both sats and BP's throughout the day, meds and vent setting have been adjusted to meet infant needs. Infant has also had to be hand bagged multiple times to rescue him from decreasing Sat's. Several Xrays have been done of chest and abdomen to evaluate clinical status and tube and line placement. Changes have been made as needed.
This infant remains critical and unstable. MD, NNP, RNs and RT's will continue to monitor closely and treat infant as needed.
