Invasive
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracheal_intubation
- Intensive Care Unit, extreme risk cases, invasive intubation
- Typically done with anaesthesia, but can be done without in extremes
- Associated devices - Intubation is normally facilitated by using a conventional laryngoscope, flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope, or video laryngoscope to identify the vocal cords and pass the tube between them into the trachea instead of into the esophagus.
Not Intubation - non-invasive mechanical ventilation
See reference for critical care procedures - in this interview - [1]
- Day 8-9 shortness of breath occurs
- CPAP - from [2]. See [CPAP on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_positive_airway_pressure]
- B-PAP - bi-level CPAP - has one pressure for exhale, another for inhale - [3] , CPAP,
- high flow nasal cannula oxygen - [4]
- COVID room protocol - Powered Air-Purifying Respirator + shoe covers.
Worst Case Scenario
From [5] - a peak of patients rushing to hospitals (beyond improvised # of IC beds). All medical personel functioning while sick. PPE's will no longer be relevant, etc, but number of beds will. and ventilators will then become an issue?
