The Critical Care Triad - The Ventilator Podcast
Episode #11 - Case Study: The Asthmatic Patient
Send a text...we would love to hear from you!
In this episode we discuss a case scenario of Asthma exacerbation. This can be one of the most challenging patients to manage on the ventilator. If at all possible we try not to intubate these patients, however there are times when this happens. We will discuss clinical treatment, ventilator management, and what our rolls are as transport clinicians in the transport of these patients.
