Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.

So, today’s tip is about a reader who writes in, and he says, “My dad’s been in ICU for a few weeks now. He’s ventilator dependent and he’s having a tracheostomy. The ICU team has been trying the CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) or pressure support mode for a few times, but every time they switch him into CPAP or pressure support mode, his respiratory rate goes up and they need to put him back to SIMV (synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation) or a controlled ventilation mode. I need help to move my dad away from the ventilator. How can he be weaned off pretty quickly?”

So, the biggest challenge for families in intensive care is simply that they don’t know what they don’t know. They don’t know what to look for. They don’t know what questions to ask, they don’t know their rights, and they don’t know how to manage doctors and nurses in intensive care. And that’s exactly what you are dealing with here.

Now, if someone can’t come off the ventilator or if they can’t even pass the spontaneous breathing trials, like in the case in your dad’s situation, they need to start physical therapy. They need to start mobilization.
