Walking Home from The ICU Episode 34: Recommendations From a 4 -Time Ventilator Survivor
Kali talks with Ann Bannon, who was intubated four times and awake on the endotracheal tube and ventilator for months. She gives us valuable insight into how to help the new flood of ventilated patients. Episode Transcription Kali Dayton Ann, thank you so much for joining us. Appreciate you coming on our show and helping
When patients are so ill that they require a ventilator in the ICU, the antiquated approach of heavy sedation and immobilization should be avoided in order to help prevent the immense burden of physical and cognitive disabilities suffered during survival.
Kali is leading ICU teams to become Awake and Walking ICUs through true mastery of the ABCDEF Bundle. I endorse her mission and look forward to the standardization of this evidence-based approach in ICUs all over the world.
Dr. Wes Ely, author of Every Deep Drawn Breath, leading founder of the ABCDEF Bundle and ICU CAM delirium screening tool, and Professor of Medicine in the Division of Allergy, Pulmonary, and Critical Care Medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center
