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

So today’s tip is about, again, a frustration that one of our readers shared, and the reader says, “My 74-year-old mom has been in ICU for three weeks now. She’s had a tracheostomy seven days ago, but she’s not waking up even though all sedation has been off for a week since she had the tracheostomy. What should I expect?” Well, here is what you can expect.

First off, it would’ve been good to know why your mom is in ICU, you haven’t shared any of that. Your mom might be in ICU for a pneumonia, for some form of surgery, for a neurological condition such as a hypoxic brain injury, traumatic brain injury, seizures, stroke. You haven’t shared any of that because clearly there would need to be a distinction made between whether your mom is in for any condition or for a neurological condition.

For example, if she’s in it with a brain injury , seizure, stroke, whatever the case may be, then, you almost, you can’t expect that. And I come to a solution in a minute, but if your mom is in ICU for a pneumonia, for trauma, for, maybe she’s post-surgery, maybe she had open heart surgery, whatever the case may be, then you should definitely have your mom expect to wake up.
