Hi Patrik,
My name is Lalaine. I would like to ask few questions on tracheostomy.
My mom is admitted in ICU and currently on mechanical ventilator. Her breathing is ok now. She is able to breathe on her own and ventilator oxygen reduced to 30%, PEEP 6. Doctors are suggesting tracheostomy, but for her condition of still in recovery of sepsis and lung infection she is not fit for surgery, GA is also dangerous for her.
Today she is 14 days ventilated and doctors are not able to wean her off the ventilator even though she is breathing on her own because she is in minimal conscious state. Her other parameters are all normal but general well-being is not good.
In this case what would be your advice? We are confused to go for tracheostomy or not. If prolonged on mechanical ventilator for another 2 weeks, will it be fine? Any other option than tracheostomy? Please advise.
Thank you.
Lalaine
