She also had a Venous Cutdown during the surgery because her Main IV lines can't handle all the meds coming in.
Venous cutdown is an emergency procedure in which the vein is exposed surgically and then a cannula is inserted into the vein under direct vision. It is used to get vascular access in trauma and hypovolemic shock patients when peripheral cannulation is difficult or impossible. The saphenous vein is most commonly used.
In the ICU she recovered well. After a day we are able to talk to her and converse to her well. She had a lot of cravings like Halo-Halo, Puto, Ponkan, Palabok, Gatorade, Yakult, etc...
This good smile lasted for a couple of days. We'd thought this will last until he was transferred from ICU to a regular room.
