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

Currently, we are working with a client who has their 67-year old father on continuous BiPAP in intensive care, alternating with high flow nasal prongs. And the client has been diagnosed with end-stage COPD and the intensive care team says, he might be able to live on the BiPAP for a little bit longer. But they’re saying that the best way forward is to look at palliative care options and to look at end-of-life care options without actually asking the client, what would they want?

So what they haven’t discussed as well is, for example, they haven’t discussed a tracheostomy as an option. They haven’t discussed BiPAP at home as an option with Intensive Care at Home. They haven’t discussed tracheostomy and then again, Intensive Care at Home as an option.

So, today I want to shed more light on options for a client besides palliative care and end-of-life care because that’s what intensive care units generally speaking do. They’re always very quick at pulling the plug, so to speak, to be quite blunt. They are very quick at talking about palliative care and end-of-life care options without looking at how can we prolong life that’s with an acceptable quality of life for the client and for their family.
