Hello, I am Maria, the nurse in the PACU. I’m giving report on Mrs. Amrit Mamuji, aged 64, who has just undergone a modified radical mastectomy of the left breast with resection of lymph nodes. She is a patient of Dr. Chen. The surgery went as planned without major problems. She’s been in the recovery room for 45 minutes. She is drowsy but easily awake and she is oriented to person, place and time; respirations are 16 / min, SpO2 at 96% on room air. HR is 72 / min, BP is 122/75 mmHg; Ringers Lactate is running at 100 mL / hr; her chest bandage on the left breast is serosanguinous over an area of approximately 1 x 2 cm; a Jackson Pratt drain is in place at the level of the left axilla and has drained 30 ml of serosangiunous fluid; she has an indwelling urinary catheter which will be taken out tomorrow, her urine output is normal. She rated her pain at 5/10 when she woke up. The initial loading dose of 3 mg via the PCA pump was administered 15 minutes ago. A reminder of the preoperative instructions for self-administration of analgesia via PCA was given. The VS should be repeated at 1345., following the PCA bolus.
