Hunter, ER doc, believer in democracy. I’m here to rant, combat medical misinfo, shitpost, and get social therapy. Posts aren’t medical advice. This is the only platform I am currently on. If you find “me” elsewhere, it isn’t me. A whole of people are about to find out how the world actually works, and they aren't going to like it. He/him/or whatever, because fuck the “get pronouns out of your emails” shitweasels.

In light of the blackouts in Cuba, US threats to stop power in Iran, Israeli strikes on Lebanon, and Russian strikes on Ukraine’s power grid, I will remind everyone that trying manually ventilate patients who can’t breathe for themselves is exhausting, technically challenging, and often fatally inadequate. It is very hard to sit there manually delivering 6 cc/kg of air with the right pressure, inspiratory time, and expiratory time, over and over again, for hours.
