Naqiuddin Dah Start Makan Bijirin Untuk Baby

Hari ni.. ehh bukan hari ni.. dah lepas pukul 12. Semalam Naqiuddin tak berapa mau minum susu. Tak tau mengapa. Maybe sebab sebelum ni susu ada campur ubat. Tu yang tak nak makan. Bagi ubat direct pun susah nak makan.

Malam pergi shopping cari susu. Sebab stok susu dah habis. Sambil tu beli nestum sekali.. Ehh.. bukan Nestum.. Tapi Bijirin Dumex (Nestum lak dapat nama) untuk 4 bulan keatas. Maklumle.. staff gomen dapat gaji semalam.

Balik rumah try bagi Naqiuddin makan (walaupun ada 5 hari lagi nak umur 4 bulan). Habis le juga 2-3 sudu baby tu. Kira OK la tu.. makan pun sambil gelak?. Esok lusa pandai le tu makan banyak.

Alhamdulillah.

Seminggu Di Rumah

Dah seminggu dah Naqiuddin balik rumah, baru kali ni nak menulis lagi kat ruangan ni.

Hari ni sepatutnya kenduri kahwin Pak Ngah kepada Naqiuddin kat Padang Serai Kedah. Tapi kami minta maaf tak dapat balik. Walaupun kenduri tu sambil buat aqiqah untuk Naqiuddin. InsyaALLAH kalau naqiuddin betul? sihat nanti kami balik. Raya haji ni pun raya di KL kot, walau cuti 4 hari.

Malam bawak Naqiuddin pergi buat suntikan DPT-Hib + Polio (untuk umur dua bulan sepatutnya, sekarang umur naqiuddin 3 bulan 24 hari). Dr buat suntikan, dia senyum je :). Agaknya dah lali dengan sakit? suntikan ni. Dia dah alami sakit yang lagi besar masa operation. Berat dah naik balik jadi 4.8 kg,elah turun 0.5 kg dua minggu lepas.

Naqiuddin dah Ada kat rumah

Alhamdulillah. Terima Kasih atas doa semua.

Naqiuddin kini dah kembali ke rumah di Pandan indahelah 1 bulan 10 hari di IJN.

—————————————————————————

Brief Hospital Course:

A). Post pulmonary artery banding and Blalock-Taussig Shunt.
1). Blocked shunt.
– About 2 hours postop, he was noted to desaturated to 40%.
– Urgent echocardiography revealed :

  • No pericardial effusion.
  • Tachycardic heart.
  • Poor left ventricular function LVEF = 32%.
  • Pulmonary artery band pressure gradient 39mm Hg.
  • Right Blalock-Taussig Shunt not seen.

– So heparin infusion lOunits/kg/hour was commenced immediately.
– Following that oxygen saturation gradually improved.
– About 7 hours later shunt murmur could be heard and his oxygen saturation maintain > 75%.
– Repeat echocardiography reveal Blalock-Taussig Shunt flow seen but minimal.

2). Pneumonia.
– Serial CXR done since post operative day 4 showed pneumonic changes.
– Initially he was treated with IV Rocephine and IV Amikacin.
– However as he still having low grade fever after 6 days of these antibiotics, he was started on IV Imipenam.
– All cultures were negative.

3). Ventilator dependent.
– On post operative day 5, he persistently had lowish oxygen saturation despite on high ventilatortings.
– So nitric oxide ventilation was commenced immediately.
– Following that his oxygen saturation improved.
– So his nitric oxide ventilation was gradually wean down and managed to off after 6 days.
– However he required quite high ventilatortings and had difficulty in weaning down histing.
– Discussion was done in the cardiothoracic – paediatric cardiology meeting and decided
to proceed with arterial switch and pulmonary artery debanding.

B). Post arterial switch operation:

1). Pulmonary hypertension.
– Immediately postop, he was noted to have high pulmonary artery pressure that is about 1/2 systemic.
– So nitric oxide ventilation and primacor infusion were commenced immediately.
– Following that his pulmonary artery pressure gradually decreased to 1/3 systemic.
– So his nitric oxide ventilation and primacor infusion were gradually wean down and was off by post operative day 3 and post operative day 6 respectively.

2). Renal impairment.
– Few hours postop, he was noted to have decreased urine output and his body became oedematous.
– So peritoneal dialysis was inserted and lasix infusion were commenced immediately.
– Following that he had good urine output.
– His peritoneal dialysis and lasix infusion were discontinued by post operative day 3.

3). Wound infection.
– On post operative day 6, his wound was noted to be infected.
– Wound swab C&S : no growth.
– Treated with IV Vancomycin and IV Amikacin for 10 days.

4). Presumed sepsis.
– On post operative day 12 he was noted to have thrombocytosis and leucocytosis.
– Treated with IV Imipenam for 1 week.
– Blood C&S : no growth.

5). Chronic lung disease.
– His serial CXR since post operative day 6 shows chronic lung changes.
– Had failed trial of extubation twice.
– Finally managed to extubate him by post operative day 10.
– He was given IV Dexamethasone according to BPD regime and was put on Budesonide MDI and combivent MDI.

—————————————————————————

Condition of Patient upon Discharge :

Pink with oxygen saturation > 95% on air.
Mildly tachypnoeic.
Afebrile.
Lungs : clear.
Cardiovascular system: Ejection systolic murmur at left sternal edge 3/6.
Echo:
– No pericardial effusion / pleural effusion.
– Both diaphragm moving well.
– Normal chambers size.
– Good left ventricular function ejection fraction 70%.
– No mitral regurgitation / tricuspid regurgitation.
– Mild pulmonary regurgitation pressure gradient 11mm Hg ( normal pulmonary artery pressure ).
– Proximal right pulmonary artery / left pulmonary artery well seen and no obstruction.
– Small patent foramen ovale with left to right shunt.
* Pleural and pericardia! effusion are common complications following cardiac surgery. They should be suspected if the patient presents with cardio-respiratory symptoms.

Naqiuddin Dah Boleh Balik Rumah. Alhamdulillah.

Setelah 1 bulan 10 hari di IJN…. Akhirnya.. di hari Jumaat penghulu segala hari…

Ibu Naqiuddin baru bayar bil wad IJN. InsyaAllah tengahari ni abah naqiuddin nak ambik bawak balik rumah.

Kena bayar bil RM 264.00 sebab guna Guarantee letter (GL) staff kerajaan. Kalau bayar sendiri kena RM 64, 989.19. Alhamdulillah, dapat kerja dengan kerajaan 2 minggu sebelum Naqiuddin lahir. Kalau tak.. tak tau kat mana nak korek duit.

Esok Naqiuddin Balik Rumah

Hari ni buat Echo. Alhamdulillah, OK tak ada masalah. Esok akan diberi ubat untuk kali terakhir, dan petang InsyaALLAH boleh balik rumah. Alhamdulillah.

Malam esok juga Pak Ngah dan bakal Mak Ngah Naqiuddin akan bernikah kat Kg Manjoi, Ipoh. Minta maaflah sebab kami tak dapat join sekali majlis tu. Moga majlis berjalan lancar.

Naqiuddin Dah Bebas


5 Januari 2005, 6:30 pm Wad Melur IJN

Bebas, bukan bebas dah keluar wad. Tapi bebas daripada segala sambungan? ke peralatan perubatan. ECG dah tak diambil, so Naqiuddin dah dipakaikan seluarelah sebulan 2 hari berlalu (sejak operation BT Shunt). Jadi boleh la ibunya bawak pusing? wad & IJN. Tak ada lah duduk di katil je.

Alhamdulillah.

Pemberian Oksigen, Antibiotik Dihentikan

Sebelum tu nak ucapkan tahniah kepada Pak Dik kepada naqiuddin (Adik kamilz http://sidik.org) sebab dah dapat tawaran bertugas di salah sebuah anak syarikat PETRONAS (MTBE/Polypropylene (M) Sdn. Bhd), sebagai Eksekutif Perkhidmatan Kewangan, di Gebeng Kuantanelah menanti 8 bulan selepas tamat pengajian. Semoga dapat menempuhi alam pekerjaan dengan tabah dan berjaya.

Hari ni saluran oksigen diluar hidung naqiuddin dah dicabut dan pemberian antibiotik dah dihentikan. X-ray dah diambil dan kalau OK hari ni naqiuddin akan dipindahkan ke wad asal di wad Tanjung, Aras 2 IJN menanti masa untuk discharge. Alhamdulillah..

Naqiuddin Dah Nak Meniarap

Memang dah sampai masa untuk meniarap. Perkembangan bayi normal kalau dah 3 bulan memang sepatutnya dah meniarap. Nampaknya naqiuddin pun macam tu. Jenuh tegakkan badan dia, mesti dia mengiring lagi nak meniarap. Tapi terpaksa dihalang le. Takut kesan operation tu jadi sakit.

Tengahari tadi ada timbang berat badan naqiuddin. Banyak juga turunnya. Sebelum operation pertama hari tu berat dia 4.6 Kg. Hari ni turun 4.1 Kg. Mana taknya. Makan susu sikit. Lepaih tu kene ikut time pulak.

Hari ni tak ada ura-ura lagi bila nak balik rumah. Memang kene tunggu habis bekalan ubat antibiotik tu ler. tapi tak tau bile.

Terima Kasih Abang Arif, Kak Hana dan Mak serta ayahnya kerana datang melawat petang tadi.

Semua Jahitan Dah Dicabut

Tengahari ni semua benang jahitan operation yang lepas dah di cabut/buang. Jadi sekarang ni cuma dalam fasa menjaga luka je.

Ikut kata Nurse Rohana tadi, kalau ikutkan dah boleh balik dah Naqiuddin. Tapi pemberian antibiotik tak habis lagi. Ada lagi dalam 2-3 hari. Pagi tadi Dr arab dah suruh tutup oksigen (yang letak kat luar hidung tu). Pun dah ok. Bacaan SpO2 atas 96%. Tapi datang Dr lagi sorang suruh pasang balik pulak. Dia kata antibiotik tak habis bagi lagi. Bila dah habis nanti baru buka oksigen.
