Yesterday Baby Bear started having episodes of bradycardia. It wasn't too bad, only in the 90s until later in the evening when it dropped to the low 60s. That caused all the alarms to go off and nurses to come running in.

They did an ECG and the results were okay so after the nurses, doctors and cardiologist consulted, it seems it's just one of those things.

The cultures that were done yesterday came back fine. Possible signs of a slight UTI, maybe from the catheter during surgery, or it could have been due to some common post-op lung thing but they gave him antibiotics last night and he hasn't had a high temp since.

The docs just came by on their round and I think they may be taking him off fluid restrictions. I also asked about removing his central line as two of the lines are blocked and as long as the two peripheral lines in his feet are working then they will take the CVC out today.
