Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.
So, one of our subscribers, Peter wants to know, how long can a patient survive on ventilation after they’ve been declared brain-dead?
Now, what a great question Peter. Current sort of approaches in ICU suggest that once a patient is brain-dead, they are legally dead and that’s also often backed up by state laws and national laws. However, there are now different approaches to that. So for example, if you are in a situation like that, or one of your family members is in a situation like that, you might not agree with that approach because you might have religious, cultural, spiritual beliefs that you know, as long as your loved one can be alive on a ventilator, irrespective if they are brain-dead, that they are alive from your point of view, so it really comes down to your school of thought.
Now, in theory, you could ventilate a patient on a ventilator, even if they’re brain-dead indefinitely, you could perform a tracheostomy, and you could keep them “alive”. To illustrate that with an example, a few years ago, I believe it was in 2014, maybe 2013, I can’t quite remember.
