Jude's Tuesday night update.

Jude had another rough night last night. At one point even on 9 liters of Oxygen he couldn't keep O2 stats above 88. We went through all his medications again to get him stablized and resting. I began reading up on the Sundowners syndrome our other nurse mentioned http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sundowning_(dementia).  Granted this is more for elderly patients that suffer Dementia but Jude does have similiar symptoms. Today Charlotte said he did much better and even went from 8:30-1:00 on room air. That's the first time he has done that! However, she did have to put him back on 2 liters.  

We will see how tonight goes.
