twoday posted:how was it? well pulm floors are kinda the newspaper at the bottom of the birdcage in that they catch everything. everyone in critical care dies of respiratory failure. my typical patient was on a vent, renal failure, congestive heart failure, COPD, diabetes. We ran a bunch of codes, bronchs, and intubations, but other than that it was mostly managing patients i learned a poo poo load though

twoday posted:https://twitter.com/suilee/status/1227765359022755841?s=20 in any flu or pneumonia, concrete testing will often times lag behind clinical symptoms. for example, in pneumonia in the elderly especially, chest xrays can lag by as a much as a week following presentation.

Regarding that video of patients lying on the floor, you can see that in basically every big city ER in the United States.

Had a patient tonight who got lockdown procedures for possible coronavirus. From an area effected, timeline fit, flu symptoms, etc. Turns out he just had metastatic lung cancer with mets to the brain. So bullet dodged, I guess.

Tei posted:Old people have a lot of political power in technology, science and politics. Sometimes the only way for society to progress is to wait for the next generation to take place. even your conservative chuds are generally in favor of things like healthcare, relaxed drug laws, etc. the boomers are against all these things because they feel it'll interfere with their already free healthcare, and since the politically active ones are heavily invested in the markets they'll do everything they can to make sure number go up, regardless of the connection to reality

Notorious R.I.M. posted:ICU beds are used for other things beside COVID-19. Maybe someone with more health worker knowledge knows what the normal % of availability in flu season is. I just did a pulmonary rotation in a specialty hospital within one of the two main hospitals for east tennessee. We had 28 beds for pulmonary ICU, then another 20 or so for general ICU. Then we had a couple of stray ventilators that would usually find their way to the neuro floor. But people loving desat all the time, and the decision to intubate has to be made quickly and requires quite a few people. like this is kinda nuts. It means that they're running out of pulmonologists and RTs, and are just treating acid base disorders on the fly by pamphlet https://twitter.com/jasonvanschoor/status/1237144317610819585?s=20 a freshly minted ortho surgeon hasn't had to worry about lungs in like 4 years lmao

please stop smoking everyone if you're in your thirties and don't already have smoker's cough it won't drastically increase your chances of contracting boomerflu but just stop smoking anyway also vaping. when the literature is written we're going to see a huge uptick in pneumothorax attributed to vaping

if you are going to an airport, you will be exposed if you are exposed, there's a good chance you'll get it if you get it, you'll be miserable for a few days if you don't have a preexisting condition or aren't  the biggest threat on this forum is someone passing it to someone who is susceptible so basically ask your parents if they voted for biden, and if they did use these cheap flights to go see them and give them a big hug. also spit in their food

Pryor on Fire posted:I listened to a podcast with a smart doctor that said flu season is basically over now and nobody has the flu. Then I listened to another podcast with a smart doctor who said the flu is still going around like crazy in March on top of covid. Which is it? I’m diagnosing about 10 people a day with flu.

The Skeleton King posted:I'm wondering what the long term effects on the world will be, especially if Corona proves to be as strong as it claims to be. It’s going to be like seasonal flu where ya have to get your corona shot every year. Some years will be worse than others, some years the vaccine won’t be as good. This is just our life now.
