Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.
So, one of our readers, Roy asked, how likely is it for someone at the age of 70 or above to get off the ventilator in intensive care? Now, that’s a great question Roy but it also needs to be broken down into two segments.
Number one is to come off the ventilator with a breathing tube and or an endotracheal tube when you know a patient is in an induced coma. Now, and then the second part we need to look at how likely is it to come off the ventilator at the age of 70 and above, with a tracheostomy?
So let’s quickly look at question one. How likely is it to come off the ventilator with a breathing tube at the age of 70 or above? Look, generally speaking from my experience, after having worked in intensive care for 20 years, and after having looked after thousands of critically ill patients and their families, you can get off the ventilator at or above the age of 70. You know, it might take a little bit longer, you know, compared to younger patients, but it’s still possible and the vast majority of patients at the age of 70 or above, come off the ventilator, with a breathing tube.
