We are doing the anomalous symptom of the day lately. Today there was a cough assist useage that brought up bloody and orange mucus. We have been having trouble with secretions and have been trying different controls to limit and thin them. The nurse doesn't think its pneumonia. There was a suggestion that the mucus can attach to an inflamed part of the airway and bring up blood that way.
Does that mean we should dial down the cough assist pressure? She reports no pain during either inspiration or expiration.
