3. Patient Update for Sunday, Jan. 16, 2011

Three patients from the tragic shooting a week ago remain at UMC. Two are listed in good condition and U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords has been upgraded to serious condition from critical because she is no longer on a ventilator.

The Congresswoman continues to do well. She is breathing on her own. Yesterday’s procedures were successful and uneventful.

PLEASE NOTE: This is all the information available today, and physicians are not available today for interviews. However, a media briefing to provide a full update on patients’ conditions is scheduled for 11 a.m. Monday, Jan. 17, at Kiewit Auditorium, Arizona Cancer Center, 1515 N. Campbell Ave. http://www.azumc.com.Until then, please refer to the University Medical Center website for updates:
