KB21 Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 He’s still intubated in the PICU. They had planned on getting him ready to extubate in the next 48-72 hours, but he spiked a fever. CRP and pro calcitonin are elevated. CT shows some fluid in the abdomen that could be forming an abscess. The concern is that there may be a leak at the anastomosis. Waiting on the plan from surgery now. They may have to go back in, wash out the fluid, and give him a temporary or possibly permanent ostomy. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member sturt Posted July 11 Premium Member Report Share Posted July 11 Praying, KB. Do you mind sharing a first name? It just feels a little more personal that way, but if that's too much, and it might be, I'll just make up an alias. And how old? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
