Diaphragmatic flutter in a patient on mechanical ventilation: challenging! @JmNunezSilveira @ArielG_RRT @emireles_c @OrlandoRPN @ecgoligher

@curso_vm @JmNunezSilveira @ArielG_RRT @emireles_c @OrlandoRPN @ecgoligher Here's an example from me.

This rare condition is diaphragmatic myoclonus also known as belly dancer's dyskinesia or diaphragm flutter.

In 132 ICU patients in Australia, 50% adherence to the ABCDEF bundle did not reduce incidence or duration of delirium.
Data of adherence and delivery are important performance parameters in bundles. I remember >80% being crucial for success

Finally saw a respiratory therapist using an Aerogen vibrating mesh nebulizer for acute severe asthma in The Pitt S2E13.
Accurate aerosol delivery on prime time. Small win, big pride for RTs. 👏🏼

İlk gördüğümde valf hatası olabilir mi diye düşünmüştüm fakat değil..

What you think about spikes? TAG?

45 years old woman. asthma, congestive heart failure and hypertension diagnosed. Admitted ICU after ROSC.

@ArielG_RRT @ventilacionmeca @DocMusician @DrMiguelIbarra1 @emireles_c @critconcepts @IM_Crit_ @JVentilation @CCF_PCCM @RespiratorySCCM @SaudiRTs @DrSateeshPCCM Does increase PEEP always confirm the thesis that plateau pressure (Pplat) will increase conventionally? So, Is dynamic hyperinflation a loop? Holds exp and insp should be done, and airway opening pressure (AOP) should be measured in my opinion..

Very nice discussion about "Automode - BIPAP"

@msiuba Congratulations 👏🏿

A test will clarify the result of our conversation. check pressurization during 0/0 with any triggerable mode. In addition some ventilators have active exhalation valve. What do you think how it works?

@ArielG_RRT @DrSateeshPCCM @ventilacionmeca @DocMusician @DrMiguelIbarra1 @emireles_c @CCF_PCCM @OfVentilation @IM_Crit_ @critconcepts @MegriMohammed @SaudiRTs @RespiratorySCCM Most of them have flow sensitive pressure triggering. If you look at the datasheets or user manual of the ventilator, this value is assigned without distinguishing pressure/flow. It is best to test it with a model with precision…

It may be wrong to say all of them, you are right, but I think this is the case since the second generation of ventilators. If there is flow, there is also pressure. Physics...
