Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.

So, yesterday we had an email from a reader from Bob who says, “My mom has been in intensive care and she’s breathing on pressure support/ CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) with a breathing tube. What do I need to do to get her off the ventilator and breathing tube?” Great question, Bob. There are a few boxes your mom needs to tick. Ideally, she needs to breathe on the pressure support/ CPAP for a few hours, at least 12 to 24 hours, I’d say. Depends how long she’s been on the ventilator, for you haven’t shared that. Her arterial blood gases need to be within normal range. Her pressure support needs to be less than 10. Generally speaking, PEEP (positive end expiratory pressure) needs to be less than 7. Her breathing rate per minute should be between 12 to 30 breaths per minute. She needs to breathe calmly. She needs to have minimal secretions from the breathing tube so she can clear her own airway.
