His Sodium level is lower but within normal range. He is sweating severely which is because of the brain injury. His temperature is normal.
His scrapes & wounds are scabbing over & he still has staples in the back of his head.
The respirator is set st 40% oxygen - Peak 5. Allowed over peak 10. He is only taking shallow breaths. They'd like him to take deeper ones but decreased the respirator to allow him to breath more himself.
They decreased the narcotic pain medication - hoping he will be more awake so he can respond to commands.
He has a significant odor even though they are bathing him at least once daily. It's from his brain injury - fluid occasionally draining from his nose - from back of his throat - etc. it's considered normal although he'd probably be grossed out considering his vanity.
His eyes are more open today. They appear to be tracking together although it's unclear if he can see anyone or exactly what's going on around him.
