UPDATE . IN PROCEDURE ROOM
Colleen is in the procedure room. Her cardiac electrophysiologist is Ronald Berger, MD, Ph.D., Professor of Medicine, who came by Colleen's room this morning, introduced himself, and went into more detail about the particular plan for giving her new pacemaker. (Dr. Ishigawa, the doctor who would have done Colleen's procedure had it happened last Friday, is out of town today.) Colleen's CP anesthesiologist is Ramola Bhambhani, MD.

MINOR TIME CORRECTION
A staff member just explained the digital monitor more completely to me. GREEN represents Pre-Op/Prep as well as the Procedure itself. Colleen clocked into Green at 2:25. No way of knowing exactly when the Prep finished and the Procedure itself began, but we can assume it's underway. Remember three to four hours for the procedure is projected.
