Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from INTENSIVECAREHOTLINE.COM , where we instantly improve the lives of Families of critically ill Patients in Intensive Care, so that you can have PEACE OF MIND, real power, real control and so that you can influence decision making fast, even if you’re not a doctor or a nurse in Intensive Care!

This is another episode of “YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED” and in last week’s episode I answered another question that our readers ask quite frequently and the question last week was

“How long can a critically ill Patient stay on ECMO?”

You can check out the answer to last week’s question by clicking on the link here.

In this week’s episode of “YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED” I want to answer another question from one of our readers and this week, Chris from Denver asks.

My father has been weaned off the ventilator in Intensive Care and still has the Tracheostomy in. When can the Tracheostomy be removed?

Hi Patrik,

My 75 year old father has been on a ventilator with tracheostomy for about four weeks after he developed a severe Pneumonia after he had open heart surgery for a bypass.
