FOMO!!

@ColinFranzMDphd @NatashaBhatiaMD @AbilityLab @NorthwesternPMR @NM_Lung @NMNeurology @DrNikeAde Honor and privilege to work with this group!

Check out @NatashaBhatiaMD @AbilityLab @NorthwesternPMR led study on value of Diaphragm Muscle Ultrasound for Ventilator Weaning after Spinal Cord Injury in #collaboration our colleagues @NM_Lung @NMNeurology including @lbfwolfe @DrNikeAde medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

@jeremyeorr @MegriMohammed @ArielG_RRT @DrMiguelIbarra1 @emireles_c @ParijatSen11 @_MSAMEED @OfVentilation Or there in no CO2 in dead space — I’m not fancy

@MegriMohammed @ArielG_RRT @DrMiguelIbarra1 @emireles_c @ParijatSen11 @_MSAMEED @OfVentilation Increasing magnitude suggests patient efforts (which are ineffective). Don’t need to entrain much fresh air to lower PawCO2 (since this is continuous capnometry it’s not PetCO2, which is a derived parameter)

What is the TAG and what’s going on? Note: The last scalar is the ETCO2 @ArielG_RRT @DrMiguelIbarra1 @emireles_c @ParijatSen11 @_MSAMEED @OfVentilation

@JustinFiala @AbilityLab Leak speech should be a standard part of PCCM training. Can your trach / vent pt’s talk? Do your fellows know how?

@ptreviewer @ColinFranzMDphd @AbilityLab @NorthwesternPMR @NMNeurology @NM_Lung @JustinFiala The US is awesome!

@ColinFranzMDphd @AbilityLab @NorthwesternPMR @NMNeurology @NM_Lung @JustinFiala @lbfwolfe Awesome! What was the treatment protocol?

Nothing makes me happier than seeing a #diaphragm that was paralyzed start to move again @AbilityLab @NorthwesternPMR @NMNeurology @NM_Lung. Worth working late for, right? @JustinFiala @lbfwolfe

@ERSpublications This is why I’m thankful daily for support from @emmcnally , @WilcoxHeart and @dominicfull

ERJOR: Cardiac death is the most common cause of death in adult patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy on home mechanical ventilation, and low left ventricular ejection fraction in Duchenne cardiomyopathy is strongly associated with reduced survival bit.ly/43md86m

@JustinFiala Lungs next please!!

@JustinFiala @DrRissman Back at ya!

Triple checked mgmt of a complex patient w someone who was my #PedsICU attending while in fellowship After talking through the case, they said “I’m proud of you + you should be proud too.” Do you ever stop looking for education + validation from an attending-er attending?

@AtulMalhotra13 @atscommunity Sleep in the broad sense — is the new bio marker for HFrEF!

@JustinFiala That much blue I’d expect a bigger RV!

@CatrinEmery @SiLVaH_UK 100%- I try to do pure leak speech

@lbfwolfe @SiLVaH_UK Thanks Lisa. Super helpful to think about the trache position when cuff deflated. Do you find inline PMV worsens airflow sensing in some patients?

Does anyone have advice on fine tuning vent synchrony for those with a cuffless trache / find it challenging? No difference between PCV vs PSV, perfect sync with cuff up. *specific difficulties with high SCI group* Do you favour a lower EPAP? Trigger sensitivity? @SiLVaH_UK

@somnoniv Even with partial glouttic closures— In the setting of CS — as EPAP goes “less is more”

Always the same question with Cheyne Stokes ventilation…are upperairway opened or closed during the « central » event. Here a CS in post stroke. Your opinion?
