The baby was born at 36 weeks gestational age and spent 7 days in the NICU due to complications from aspiration pneumonia during birth. You received in report that this baby did not sleep well last night, she has been very irritable, has not eaten and has had very little oral intake. She has only had one 30-gram diaper since admission yesterday in the early afternoon. She last had a 3 oz bottle of Enfamil NeuroPro at 6:00 pm last night. Her respiratory rate is 68 with moderate intercostal retractions, coarse breath sounds throughout all lung fields and expiratory wheezes noted in bilateral upper lobes. Her temperature is 101.3 (axillary), HR 178, BP 88/52 (RLE). She also has had large amounts of thick yellow/green nasal drainage. Her O2 saturations have maintained 95-97% on 1.5 L by nasal cannula, but during report you notice she is only 91%.
