Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care. So, currently we are working with a client who has been told their 84-year-old mother needs a tracheostomy after Day 3 in ICU of mechanical ventilation with a pneumonia, and they have not been told any reason. They’ve just said, “well, the only way for your mother to survive is to do a tracheostomy”. And that’s only after Day 3.
Now, if you look at the research, a tracheostomy should be done after day 10 to 14 in intensive care. And obviously we advise the client to help us with access to the medical records and then we can advise once we have more access to the medical records.
But the reality is that, after Day 3 in ICU, it is way too early to talk about the tracheostomy. So it’s really all about changing the narrative. And the narrative needs to be from the family to the ICU. Can you show us that you are trying to wean my mom off the ventilator beyond the shadow of a doubt? That is a conversation that should take place here and not a conversation, whilst she needs to have a tracheostomy, that’s the only option after Day 3.
