Good post from the covid group

sure, flu is worse... :/

This is what the public doesn't see.

A dedicated tracheostomy team! (A person needs a tracheostomy if they continue to be vented at 2 weeks time). But the mask is way more uncomfortable!

Is the renal replacement rate higher than ventilation rate? -- nm - loosilu Jun 25, 08:06 4
- Hmm good question. I think someone is more likely to get intubated than need renal replacement theory but I don't have exactly numbers. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jun 25, 08:20 2
  - Thanks. I had heard that some places ran out of dialysis machines but not ventilators. -- nm - loosilu Jun 25, 08:23 1
    - They may just have more ventilators to begin with. In general I imagine hospitals have more ventilators than dialysis as intubation is more common. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jun 25, 08:25
- ventilate the renals? -- nm - budice Jun 25, 08:09
the guy I bought my house from is a paediatric anaesthesiologist. he said there have been a lot of learnings about intubation here. - mafic Jun 25, 08:06 1
- Patients can gag and cough during intubation so they have to switch to a more rapid way of intubating plus some places made these boxes that you put -- (edited) - James Bond (aka Igor) Jun 25, 08:19
