Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from INTENSIVECAREHOTLINE.COM  , where we INSTANTLY improve the lives of Families of critically ill Patients in Intensive Care, so that you can have PEACE OF MIND, real power, real control and so that you can influence decision making FAST, even if you’re not a doctor or a nurse in Intensive Care!

This is another episode of “YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED” and in last week’s episode I answered another question from our readers and the question last week was

 “MY PARTNER IS IN INTENSIVE CARE AFTER A BLEED ON A BRAIN! WE ARE WORRIED THAT THE INTENSIVE CARE TEAM WANTS TO SWITCH OFF THE VENTILATOR! HELP!”

You can check out the answer to last week’s question by clicking on the link here.

 In this week’s episode of “YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED” I want to answer another question from one of our readers and the question this week is

“MY MOTHER IS IN INTENSIVE CARE VENTILATED WITH SEVERE FLU! THE DOCTORS WANT TO PERFORM A TRACHEOSTOMY AND THEY ARE NOT ANSWERING MY QUESTIONS! HELP!”

Jaclyn from New York writes

 

Hi Patrik,

My mother has been in Intensive Care since the 11^th January and she’s been on a ventilator since the 12^th January. She’s morbidly obese, with sleep apnea, COPD and she has been admitted to ICU due to having the flu.

I’m the power of attorney for my mother and the doctors are not answering my questions or telling me the things I should know.

They want to do a Tracheostomy in the next few days. I feel like I’m not asking the right questions.

Please help.

Thank you,

Jaclyn
