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

So, today’s tip is about an email that we had from a subscriber who says, “I was told that our family member is staying the same, no improvement on the ventilator, but his cognitive and mental status is improving, and the ICU and palliative care team are pushing to consider stopping medical intervention as well as turning off the ventilator.” Now, what should you be doing in a situation like that where you feel like you are not heard or understood by the intensive care team? Now, my advice here would be that if his mental status is improving, that you should ask your family member what he wants. If he’s cognitive, then I’m sure he can vote with a yes or with a no, whether he wants to have treatment pursued or not, or whether he wants to die. It’s as simple as that.
