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

So, I’ve got this email from a reader who says, “The doctors are saying my 79-year-old mother needs a tracheostomy, but they cannot keep intubation in her after 14 days. She has a neck injury they found in an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan, and they won’t send her to the Medical Center for surgery because there are no beds. She has been in hospital for three and a half months and was left off liquids and not being fed by nurses. She had to have emergency dialysis and is fully awake and answering questions for the last five days or so. Her partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) level was at 98 millimeter per mercury before they sent her to ICU, when I found her almost dead in her hospital room on October 29, 2022. She’s fully alert but cannot speak or write due to weakness in her arms. An intravenous (IV) cannula was put into her arms and swelled severely. Now, her skin tears easily. What should I do? I don’t want her to have a tracheostomy.” Okay, great question to ask.
