14 May 2009“Jodie, Steph and I just came back from the shift change and little Max’s potassium level is still high. Before she left, Jennifer called the doctor and he prescribed an aerosol medication (albuterol) to help with the potassium level. They administered one dose at 6pm, will do the next at 9pm and will check the level again at 11pm 11:30pm.”
“Shelly and Kim are his RNs for the night and Christi is his RT. Shelly just weighed him at 7 lbs 10 ounces … which some may be from the edema and some from the fact that he is receiving alot of fluids but is not urinating very much.”
“He is only on Dextrose right now for his fluids, but once they bring up another potassium-free mixture, he will be back on the nutrients.”
