Is Pregnancy Possible While On Xulane Birth Control Patch?

My girlfriend is on the xulane birth control patch. Since her last period week she has wore a patch non stop every day for the past 2 weeks. However, Saturday morning she took her patch off to change it and discovered that she was out of patches. By the time she got them refilled it was Sunday afternoon before she put a new patch on, so she went a full day and a half without a patch on. We had unprotected sex Saturday night. Should we still be protected by the patch even though she left it off for a day and a half?
