Trial Off update

Hi everyone. We did our first trial off of ECMO yesterday (3/15). It went really well. He dropped his oxygen saturation a little but it came back up and his gases where not affected. So we went to our second trial off today (3/16). Today was a totally different story. He had dropped his oxygen saturation during the night a couple of times for no reason and his oxygen saturation stayed fairly low after that. They tried again anyway this morning. His oxygen saturation dropped so fast and so low, they stopped the trial off almost immediately. After that they changed his vent type, and restarted the nitric oxide, they also started him on antibiotics, just in case he has an infection. They have also done an EEG to check for seizure activity, there was no sign of any. So although today was a set back we are staying positive and doing well. The doctors do not want to try anymore trial offs until Monday. Please continue to pray for us, and think about us. We appreciate everything everyone has done for us. Thanks for reading.
Love
Kimberly and Adam
