Day 37: Tuesday 29/05/2012

Sergio’s saturation levels were lower than normal during the night and therefore he required more frequent suctioning. This might have been due to the position of his trachea in his windpipe and they reckon that once his sleeping position was re-adjusted, his saturations levels returned back to normal immediately afterwards. The Esophageal Atresia Team have informed us that the plan is to just to wait for 2 weeks and then perform a gap study to check his esophagus. They are happy with Sergio’s progress and delighted that they haven’t encountered any major complications so far in their treatment of Sergio’s rare condition.

Los niveles de saturación de Sergio fueron inferiores de lo normal durante la noche y por lo tanto Sergio requirio frecuentes aspiraciones. Esto puede haberse debido a la posición de la tráquea y que una vez que le cambiaron de postura, sus niveles de saturacion regresaron a la normalidad. El equipo de atresia esofágica nos informo que el plan es simplemente esperar 2 semanas y luego realizar un estudio para comprobar su esófago. Ellos están contentos con el progreso de Sergio y encantados de que no han encontrado mayores complicaciones hasta el momento en su tratamiento.
