I am 10 yrs RN in U.S. training for new job in home care for vent patients. Kudos to this nurse for her calm, thorough teaching. The way she teaches and demonstrates goes directly into my brain for immediate comprehension and permanent storage. For me, it doesn’t get any better than this. Thank you for making this video.
This is actually one of our incredible critical care physicians. She developed the curriculum for emergency tracheostomy management on our website. Definitely worth checking out!
I had a tracheotomy in 2019, they were surprised that I had such a strong voice when the ventilation tube was removed, I've had swallowing issues since and following a recent reduction in MST, morphine, in 24, my voice has become horse with spasms when speaking and total loss of voice. I was ventilated for almost 2 months. Is this a result of the tracheotomy? The loss of voice started after the opioids were reduced and the oesophagus was tested positive for spasms when drinking. I also had an emergency tracheotomy before they inserted another tube for the ventilator.
Thank you. But you said that you cannot use the one way valve with a non-fenestrated trache but this is not true. We use valves all the time in intensive care (in the UK) during the weaning process and we never use fenestrated traches. This is because with the cuffed traches we can drop/deflate the cuff, to allow airflow around the cuff and into the upper airway so the patient can breath out.
@@quranandrecitationbyabidma1833 the one way valve will allow the patient to speak as it forces the air into the upper airway rather the back through the trache. If you watch another video on RUclips it should explain it visually which is easier to understand. This is when the cuff is down of course (if there is a cuff).
Random question but i figured id ask, As a UK healthcare worker, do you think UK could benefit from having respiratory therapists as part of the healthcare team??? Im a registered nurse is US, and its nice to have a specialized group here who knows a bit more about airway than the average nurse. 😂
In the UK our physiotherapist (I think you call them physical therapists) are respiratory trained and support the medical team instead of respiratory therapists
