Non-invasive monitoring is a crucial aspect of critical care. This pair of ICU #OnePagers explains how pulse oximetry (#SpO2) & end tidal CO2 (#ETCO2) monitoring work and what factors can cause them to read incorrectly. #FOAMed #FOAMcc

Sharing some of the top pairs of ICU #OnePagers this week.

First up, two topics that go🖐in🤚: #ECMO fundamentals & troubleshooting. Great for learning/teaching ECMO for the first time or for brushing up on basics.

Another high-yield pair of ICU #OnePagers: invasive and non-invasive ventilation.
Reviews all the common ventilator modes (VC, PC, SIMV, PRVC, APRV, etc) & the non-invasive modes (CPAP, S/T, Bilevel/BiPAP, AVAPS). Also covers how to adjust settings based on ABG/VBG results.

We had a great discussion on respiratory mechanics and physiology in our fellow-led #PedsICU journal club this month, inspired by this paper from the October issue of @PedCritCareMed . What is everybody else reading this month? https://t.co/F4CFND8Vgc

I’ve been tweeting about Covid for nearly 2 years. But this week it became personal when my 28-year-old younger son got it.
With his permission, I’ll describe his experience & how I approached his situation, given the realities of life and the rapidly changing evidence.(1/25)

Thank you @SapnaKmd and @lilliansu for your editorial: "If a technology existed that achieved such astonishing clinical results, it would receive extraordinary attention." We can't wait to answer more questions and spread this work. #PedsICU #PICUQI https://t.co/spuiRrZHnr

"Omicron’s main threat is its extreme contagiousness. It is infecting so many people that even if a smaller proportion need hospital care, the absolute numbers are still enough to saturate the system," writes @EdYong209. https://t.co/zt9A6OK3hf

We MUST implement paid leave.

We’re the only industrialized nation on the planet that doesn't have some form of paid leave.

We CAN do this.

People talk about the cost of doing this — but we can’t afford NOT to do it.

There’s a billboard near my house that says, “Thank you for being a friend, Betty“.

It put a smile on my face 💜 @BettyMWhite

They have definitely been working on high gear… I have gotten several texts and messages from their organizing leaders….

Trump and groups allied with him are planning policy summits, rallies and an elaborate forum next month at his Mar-a-Lago resort for candidates he has endorsed and donors who give as much as $125,000 per person to a pro-Trump super PAC. https://t.co/RxBYfCxzpw

At a time when Florida is in need of leadership that respects local authority, believes in science, and does right by all its people, I could not be more proud to endorse @Annette_Taddeo for Governor!

She’s more than ready and I’m confident she’ll make families everywhere proud.

[Peter Schorsch @PeterSchorschFL]

If the Governor is gonna take the state plane to an event, said event should be open to everyone, not just the Gov, his staff, and the media.

[Rick Morgan, BPA, RRT-NPS, ACCS, AE-C @RT_Rick]

@doug_hanks @culvert @LevineCava @Annette_Taddeo @GovRonDeSantis Get it, @Annette_Taddeo ! Change is needed & long overdue!
