OR Update
MKI patient, Carlos, just successfully had his aortic valve repaired and is resting in the ICU at Clinica Guayaquil.  He'll stay at this ICU for two days or until stable and then he'll be transferred to Bustamante del Nino Hospital.

The surgical team was pleased with Carlos's results.  They took a moment afterwards to take pictures in the doctor's lounge to celebrate the occasion of MKI working with both Clinica Guayaquil and Hospital del Nino Bustamante.  Then the surgical team took a short break for lunch and just went back into the OR for another surgery--the second aortic valve repair for today.
