Surgery progress at 1055 hr

One OR nurse just came to say everything has gone fine and they will finish in 30 minutes. The By-pass was done, they have finished inserting the stent and are doing some small patching somewhere. He is strong and doing well. Will sent another post as soon as he comes back to ICU
By the way, the attention at the ICU is unbelievable. Every minute of the day, repeat, every minute, he is under surveillance of never less than 2 RNs and at time up to 6 between RNs and technicians of some specialty.  He has over 12 tubes going somewhere and when a nurse heads for one of them, there is no hesitation, the level of efficiency and training is laudable.
