Elizabeth has been off Nitric since 5 Am this morning! They have also started weaning her rate and pressure on the ventilator. The doctors are meeting on Monday to disscus her and try to decide if we need to do a Cath Lab on her heart again before they take her off the ventilator or if that is something that can be done later as an outpatient procedure. They need to do the Cath Lab to get a better measure of the pulmonary hypertension. So its been a good day for her so far, hopefully they can keep weaning the ventilator today and tomorrow and then we should know Monday when they plan to take her off of it.
