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

So today’s tip is about, should you send your loved one to LTAC with multiple comorbidities?

Now, we are currently working with a client who’s been in ICU for three weeks after COVID pneumonia. He’s got several comorbidities, including severe chronic heart failure and his ejection fraction is only around 15 to 20%, which is very low, which means the heart is not pumping properly. The contractility of the heart is decreased and that’s in and of itself a significant issue that often keeps people in ICU and it needs involvement of a cardiologist. Potassium levels need to be maintained. There’s often ongoing monitoring that needs to be done because of the risk of atrial fibrillation, of PVCs (Premature Ventricular Contractions) potentially going into VT/VF (Ventricular Tachycardia/Ventricular Fibrillation). There’s all sorts of issues attached with that.

Next issue this particular client has, he might have had a mini stroke in the last few weeks which has been shown on a CT scan of the brain. Next issue, this gentleman does have is elevated LFTs (liver functions tests).
