The critical care pain observation tool is used to measure pain in a person who is not able to express their pain level themselves due to being intubated or extubated with minimal or no forms of expression. It is often used in intensive care units.

By guest blogger Reve P. Our son was born at 31 weeks and 4 days gestation after I was on hospital bed rest for 2 weeks in preterm labor.  Thankfully, his lungs were well-developed due to steroid shots I had received and he did not need to be intubated.  We were told his major hurdle […]

🫁 Types of Pneumonia: 1️⃣ Community Acquired Pneumonia * Obtained outside of the hospital * Most common cause: streptococcus pneumoniae 2️⃣ Hospital Acquired Pneumonia * Obtained in the hospital * Patient must be admitted for >48 hours * More resistant to antibiotics 3️⃣ Ventilator Associated Pneumonia * Obtained after being placed on a ventilator * Patient must be intubated >48 hours 4️⃣ Aspiration Pneumonia * Inhalation of fluid, food, or secretions into the lungs

At a recommendation of a Member I put together this General overview of Intubation and weaning parameters. Since, Patients that require intubation will require a ventilator to manage the Respiratory Failure. Once Intubated the patient is set on a Initial Ventilator settings according to the comorbidity then another ABG is drawn to see what adjustments need to be made to the vent. Management of Ventilator care is done by nurse through interventions included in the “Vent Care Bundle” this will pre

Throughout the night, her condition continues to escalate. The oxygen in her blood isn't enough, it is drifting lower and lower, requiring more oxygen, more support. During rounds with the team the next morning, we are told that she will need to be intubated. I cry.Feels like a bomb has exploded on my insides. The resident asks, "How are you doing?" "It feels like a death sentence" I tell her through my tears.They assure me, as best they can, that they are doing everything possible to help her,

Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) analysis is a rapidly growing field of research and may be a useful non-invasive technique to evaluate lung pathology. There is little information in the literature on the safety of collecting these samples in acutely ill infants needing mechanical ventilation. Viral bronchiolitis is a common lower respiratory tract infection contributing to the majority of hospitalizations in children under 2 years of age. The pathophysiology of severe bronchiolitis resulting in ventilatory support is illdefined. Our study objective was to evaluate the tolerability of collection and utility of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) in molecular evaluation of viral bronchiolitis. We obtained proteomic profile of sequential EBCs over three days of illness from two infants who were intubated and ventilated. Mass spectrometry analysis of these samples identified cytokeratin at all time-points and time-dependent increase of proteins related to intracellular adhesions, epidermal morphogenesis, cell repair and differentiation that may be used to monitor the status of epithelial barrier function and integrity of intercellular communication in the bronchiolitis lung in the future. Our pilot study highlights that EBC collection is a well- tolerated procedure to obtain meaningful longitudinal data to profile and study the molecular parameters in acutely ill bronchiolitis infants.

4 ATLS Post Tests. Includes MCQ and Q&A. 2019. More than 150 Questions Answered. 1. The primary indication for transferring a patient to a higher level trauma center is: unavailability of a surgeon or operating room  staff. multiple system injuries, including severe  head injury. resource limitations as determined by the  transferring doctor. resource limitations as determined by the  hospital administration. widened mediastinum on chest x-ray  following blunt thoracic trauma. 2. teen-aged bicycle rider is hit by a truck traveling at a high rate of speed. In the emergency department, she is actively bleeding from open fractures of her legs, and has abrasions on her chest and abdominal wall. Her blood pressure is 80/50 mm Hg, heart rate is 140 beats per minute, respiratory rate is 8 breaths per minute, and GCS score is 6. The first step in managing this patient is to: obtain a lateral cervical spine x-ray. insert a central venous pressure line. administer 2 liters of crystalloid solution. perform endotracheal intubation and ventilation. apply the PASG and inflate the leg compartments.      3. Contraindication to nasogastric intubation is the presence of a: gastric perforation. diaphragmatic rupture. open depressed skull fracture. fracture of the cervical spine. fracture of the cribriform plate.      4. Which one of the following statements regarding patients with thoracic spine injuries is TRUE? Log-rolling may be destabilizing to fractures from T-12 to L-1. Adequate immobilization can be accomplished with the scoop stretcher. Spinal cord injury below T-10 usually spares bowel and bladder function. Hyperflexion fractures in the upper thoracic spine are inherently unstable. These patients rarely present with spinal shock in association with cord injury.      5. young man sustains a ritle wound to the midabdomen. He is brought promptly to the emergency department by prehospital personnel. His skin is cool and diaphoretic, and his systolic blood pressure is 58 rnm Hg. Warmed crystalloid fluids are initiated without improvement in his vital signs. The next, most appropriate step is to perform: a celiotomy. an abdominal CT scan. diagnostic laparoscopy. abdominal ultrasonography. a diagnostic peritoneal lavage.      6. young woman sustains a severe head injury as the result of a motor vehicular crash. In the emergency department, her GCS score is 6. Her blood pressure is 140/90 mm Hg and her heart rate is 80 beats per minute. She is intubated and is being mechanically ventilated. Her pupils are 3 mm in size and equally reactive to light. There is no other apparent injury. The most important principle to follow in the early management of her head injury is to: administer an osmotic diuretic. prevent secondary brain injury.   aggressively treat systemic hypertension.  reduce metabolic requirements of the  brain. distinguish between intracranial hematoma  and cerebral edema. 7. 22-year-old man is brought to the hospital after crashing his motorcycle into a telephone pole. He is unconscious and in profound shock. He has no open wounds or obvious fractures.

His heart rate is 180 beats per minute, and his respiratory rate is 48 breaths per minute with no breath sounds heard in the left chest. A tension pneumothorax is relieved by immediate needle decompression and tube thoracostomy. Subsequently, his heart rate decreases to 140 beats per minute, his respiratory rate decreases to 36 breaths per minute, and his blood pressure is 80/50 inm Hg. Warmed Ringer's lactate is administered intravenously.
