Two years and I have had four pedi codes. Tonite was the first one in which I was the primary nurse and we lost him. Mom said he had been running a fever for three days with a runny nose. Also found out from dad later that he had not urinated in at least 48 hours and he was almost two months behind on his shots. Day three he started having a hard time breathing and was turning blue. Mom brought him into the ER threw triage. When I got him he had a HR of about 200 and was breathing about 48-54 per minute. He was mottled and dusky. He just decompensated before we could get a tube down him. We got it but if we could have gotten to him just a little sooner he probably would have made it.
