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

So I’ve got a question here from Tara who says, “My husband has been admitted to ICU on Sunday in a hyperglycemic coma, so with high blood sugars. Now it’s Wednesday, the sugars are under control, and my husband is still not waking up. He has been induced into a coma. He was put on the ventilator with a breathing tube, also known as intubation. And now three days later, he’s still not waking up and I’m very worried that he isn’t waking up. What should I do?”

Okay, great question. And I guess, first thing is that you’re doing the right thing by reaching out because you need to learn how to ask the right questions and you also need to look at things from a different angle because, you’re also saying in your email that the ICU team is very doom and gloom and saying, your husband may never wake up, so let me put this in perspective for you.

So once the sugar’s under control, they can now slowly start waking up your husband. And that’s more of a process rather than an event. It’s like switching on a light with a dimmer rather than switching on a light with a switch. It can take days and sometimes take weeks. So you should be very patient. You should be very positive about your husband having gone through this and now that the sugars are under control and now the waking up process can start. And again, that can take from days to sometimes even weeks. And I will give you an example there in a minute.
