    I just want to commend you on such a good lecture. I am an ICU physician at an academic center and the PSV trick to see what the patient wants is exactly how we teach the fellows and residents. Keep up the good work.

      @@RespiratoryCoach My concerns are the vent setting, alarms and knowing what everything means right now. It's confusing at time and there is a lot of stuff to know. I wanted to ask you if you know where I can find a sample oral presentation for a patient that is on a vent. We have a big project due in 9 weeks. We are assign a patient from our clinical instructor and have to get all the info and put it together, then present it to the class via powerpoint. I want to see how other people put their presentation together so I have a general idea. Any input would help

    Great Video!!!A very interesting tip that you mentioned about switching to PSV in order to help determine whether a patient is either flow or volume hungry is definitely a strategy that I want to apply. However, if my patient has really bad lungs like in ARDS wouldn't switching to PSV possibly lead to more VILI due to the concept surrounding Patient Self Inflicted Lung Injury (P-SILI). I was wondering if there are any ways or bedside tools we can utilize to help limit or prevent P-SILI. Also, when switching to PSV does it matter how much PSV we set? You mention to switch to a PSV 10, would there be a difference if I switch to a PSV 5??Thanks again for these awesome videos!!!!!

    • @RespiratoryCoach
      @RespiratoryCoach  4 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      First, thanks for watching and commenting! To answer your first question, I don't overly concern myself with P-SILI, if my intentions are to watch my patient in PSV for 30-90 seconds. The risk of P-SILI have been linked to prolonged, vigorous spontaneous effort. That's not what I propose. My purpose for going into PSV is solely to observe the patient's spontaneous inspiratory flow. This gives me an idea of where to set the peak flow on my vent, in order to meet my patient's inspiratory flow and reduce their flow hunger. Which in turn, hopefully improves patient-ventilator synchrony and reduces/avoids vigorous spontaneous efforts. I believe that if I can make my vent breathe like my patient wants to breathe then my patient will spend less energy, rest better, and heal quicker while on the vent. I hope that makes sense. And yes, there would be a difference if you placed them on PS-5 vs PS-10. The PS-5 imposes a greater workload onto the patient, than PS-10. This could cause an increased level of respiratory distress, which would alter your patient's resting peak inspiratory flow. I'm only using PS-5 when assessing readiness for weaning during a SBT. Great question, BZM!!!

    Hi dear
    Is the p-v asechrony happening in fully sedated pt?

    • @RespiratoryCoach
      @RespiratoryCoach  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hello, Alaawy! It all depends on the level of sedation. I assume when you say "fully" sedated, you mean sedated to the level that the patient isn't initiating any breaths. In this case, most asynchrony is eliminated. However, asynchronies such as auto-trigger and airtrapping may still occur. So it is safe to say that sedation helps to reduce the risk of p-v asynchrony, yet doesn't completely eliminate all asynchronies. Hope that makes sense.

      Great question. When you assess and compare day 1 values with day 2 values, you'll see that your airway resistance and static compliance have both worsened. So this case is an example of both an airway resistance and alveolar compliance concern. Hope this makes sense.

      Need more info, but there's only four possibilities.
      1. Airtrapping - look at your flow wavefore. If it's not returning to baseline... that's it!
      2. Breath stacking - are your volumes alternating between small TV and large TV? If so...that's it.
      3. Your patient is hitting there high insp pressure limit, which will terminate the breath before the full TV is delivered.
      4. You have a leak - look at your volume waveform. If it's not returning to baseline, but your flow waveform is then ....that's it.

      Hello Gela! Either your oxygen supply is low if you're running on a cylinder, maybe during transport? Or your oxygen supply tubing is not connected to the oxygen outlet. Or your patient is pulling a significantly greater inspiratory flow from the vent/niv, than what the vent/niv is providing. Any of those sound like the problem?
