My sister is in ICU on a ventilator.

Breathing is not an automatic function. In the case of some spinal cord injury cases, the patient can't breathe on their own, therefore mechanical assistant is required.

That’s is dumb and you do not understand intubation

Do you see that blue tube going into patients mouth, that is oxygen with moisture. They do not pump in dry oxygen air, you idiots

Good grief GLP at its finest

You would never see this conversation on a medical forum obviously including a respiratory medical forum

Every respiratory doctor in the world would stand up and say
“Listen world Intubation does not work”

Although it is not the best method
it is the only method
and used in last resort circumstances.

Do you breathe non automatic?

So sorry for this awful circumstance.

Praying for strength and healing for your sisters lungs and body. May God giver her the strength to make it through this terrible situation.

we are not talking about spinal cord injury’s. We are talking about respiratory problems from pneumonia. Whether it be aspiration or viral.

The primary inspiratory muscles are the diaphragm and external intercostals. Relaxed normal expiration is a passive process, happens because of the elastic recoil of the lungs and surface tension. However there are a few muscles that help in forceful expiration and include the internal intercostals, intercostalis intimi, subcostals and the abdominal muscles.

You use more muscles to inhale and exhale is relaxing. FYI

You can't go by color coding because the breathing circuits can be connected differently. If you zoom into this pic you can see there are actually 5 tubes. One for inhalation, one for exhalation an two for measuring the airflow and one for controlling an exhaust valve. You can see a diaphragm valve also. That for controlling the airflow moving out of the lungs.

You just confirmed my point.

Prayers for you, your sister and your family....you’re in God’s healing hands now.

My point,

they have moisturized oxygen being pumped through the tubing.

That was the post I was responding.

They said “DRY” oxygen. I said. Incorrect.

Follow now?

I'm so sorry, OP.

My husband recently lost his dad, so we understand the sadness and fear this brings.

We'll be praying, not only for your sister, but peace for you and your family as you walk through this. But most important, we'll be praying for guidance for the doctors and you as you make these important decisions.

Remember that the Lord is close, as close as your next breath and He'd love to hear from you.

Yeah that makes it all better with a plastic tube down your throat for days on in. Thanks AC Doc for the advice.

Prayers requested for healing & health.

May the Lord strengthen your sister, and comfort you and your family if is time for her to return home

It is called protocol, life support or death

Never said it was a 100 percent effective procedure

You are the one claiming it does not work

I am giving some education on the reasoning

Yeah it sucks but this is a reality that many will face in the future.

And many will not be able to cope

Death is never easy, even to doctors, but doctors and nurses are trained professionals that will do everything to save a patient’s life

Something you do not understand. And that is understandable in the grieving process

Sorry for your loss, but I assure you the medical professionals did every other could

But you are giving bad advice

Prayers for her, snd also you and the family.

Then you take the tube down your throat in a Coma tell if you come out okay

I am praying for your sister and your family. They use an echo machine to get gases out of the blood to put oxygen in blood ask the dr about it.

Amen.

Praying

Really hope she is okay and I prayed for her but of not it will be COVID not anything else. 40K on top of the insurance cost guaranteed. These people are banking on the sick and injured. Simple procedure can be deadly if it cost more to keep you alive then dead. They collect from your death if it is not worth it.

Sending love her way..
Bless her and all family.

What you say is supported logically. We see this also if hormones are administered. The production of hormones by the body shuts down and this is not easily reversed.
Since breathing is regulated by the brain, it appears logical that the brain centers regulating breathing become inactive.

1 time I did dark room therapy, depriving myself of light as much as possible with a blindfold for like 7 days or longer, and when I took it off my brain sort of short-circuited.
It was like I was dazed, like my visual brain center wasn't used in a long time and went inactive during all that time.
And now that it was being used again, it lacked nutrient flow / energy flow or it just became weakened.
It was like I was sort of sick, like my head didn't feel right. This happened just from light deprivation and exposing myself to light. Now imagine not breathing yourself for a few days as you stated. This would be far far more intense than just light deprivation I would imagine.

Every retard knows there is no point in artificially letting someone else breathe. Administering oxygen is something entirely different.

Those assholes with 1 liners are pure demons. They think they are soo amazing and soo smart but they are just dumb savage demonic creatures.
Probably doctors who administer the same killing routines, petting themselves at the back because they are soo smart and counting their money.

no one was ever saved by a ventilator

they put them on that to get more gov money

then they let them die

I can assure you I know what a ventilator is. I can assure you that I know what ventilator associated pneumonia is. I'm the person working the ventilator in this pic. You are just overly emotional and can't control your anger. Maybe do some reading?

That is absolutely awful sounding.

Sorry guy but she will be dead soon

Ventilators are killing machines. A quick search would've shown you that. You were too lazy and didn't stop her.

RIP

Prayers sent. Why is she on a ventilator? Is it the COVID?

You worship doctors like gods. I know you are a weak soul.
Like a sheep, and sheep get killed by wolves.
You can look to us as your shepherds.
You are tripping over your panties because you hear 'judgments' boohoo. Go cry in a corner.
A life is more important than your feelings or whatever words are used. What good does it do if you use sugary cuddly words if someone ends up dying because of your methods and wordings? 'Ow I must be careful not to upset anyone, better that his sister dies, than to get OP upset'.
Your mentality is sick and twisted, go search for an exorcist.

Overly concerned with name calling while others like me are trying to save her life from doctor worshipping cultists such as yourself. Followers go with the flow and assimilate into the borg hive-mind. Like a leaf in the wind.

Don't you know many doctors just care about their money?
If you cut the salaries of doctors in half, how many would still want to become a doctor do you think?
Never trust someone's integrity when it comes to high paying jobs. Trust someone's integrity when the job pays little but they choose to do it anyway.

Sheeps gonna Baaaahhhh.
