Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care. So I’ve got an email from a reader who says, “My mom is in ICU with multi-organ failure with underlying severe acute pancreatitis. She’s ventilated requiring 50% FiO2 support on the ventilator, blood pressure support and dialysis. What are our next steps? What questions should we ask regarding further treatment? Today, she has had a cytosis drained via ultrasound, endoscopy, and fluid drain from a pulmonary edema. 700 mls was drained. She’s only 67 years old”. Thank you so much for this question. Let’s break down what’s happening.

Unfortunately, many patients in ICU that end up with pancreatitis can go into a multi-organ failure, but I’ll come back to that in a minute. Let’s just carry on with that email where our reader says she’s ventilated requiring FiO2 (fraction of inspired oxygen) support 50%. So, she’s on the ventilator on 50% oxygen. Room air, the air that you and I are breathing is 21%. So that’s a fair amount of support, but it’s only one of many numbers on the ventilator that need to be considered. I would be curious to know what ventilation settings is your mom on? What are her arterial blood gases?
