Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.
So, today’s tip is about, “Weaning off ventilation and tracheostomy with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) in intensive care.” So, I have an email from a reader who says, “My mom has been in ICU now for three months with COPD on ventilation with tracheostomy, and she can’t be weaned off the ventilator, should she go home with Intensive Care at Home?” So, what should you be doing in a situation like that? Well, three months in ICU is a long time, and I would imagine your mom doesn’t have any quality of life. And therefore, the only way really to improve her quality of life is either to wean her off the ventilator, get her out of ICU as quickly as possible, go onto rehabilitation. If that can’t be achieved for whatever reason, you got asked the question, “Should she go home with Intensive Care at Home?”
So, for example, the first question that you should be asking is, is she getting mobilized? What’s stopping her from weaning off the ventilator? Is it high CO2 (carbon dioxide) with COPD? Is it that she can’t get mobilized and she can’t strengthen her breathing muscles because of it?
