Sir, can u start new series, how to manage individuals cases in icu as per guidelines. Show us how to manage , history, investigation, day to day progress, what went wrong, how u did and how we should have done

[@strange7529]

I didn't even search for this video it was showing in home screen and my first icu duty will start from day after tomorrow. What a coincidence

Thanks sir this video is soo helpfull 👍🏻👍🏻

[@rutwikdeore8479]

Sir.. would you like to give. Information about MI ..like how to manage it?.. loading doses....and on which things one should pay attention??

[@Drsuman-mu3ne]

Please teach us something on sedation in icu. This is a very undermined topic. And if possible please teach the practical aspect showing on realtime patients. Like induction, reversal etc.
Second request is for tracheostomy care in detail.
We all are doing this but still need more confidence by learning standard protocols.

[@aryac5599]

Excellent video, very comprehensive. Covered almost everything I needed to know

[@TheICUChannel]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Drsuman-mu3ne]

I watch your videos regularly. Particularly I listen to your shorts while in my car most often. Today I was tired and opened my CZcams for listening to some soothing song but ended up seeing your video. It feels like we alrdy know everything but after watching every time some new informative crunch comes out.

[@TheICUChannel]

Thanks for your kind words … hoping that this Sunday morning video which is coming will connect with loyal members like u 🤝

[@auditigupta4697]

I was taught about FAST HUG BIDS during my md training as the first assessment of any pt in the icu. It's very helpful and simple to not miss anything about the patient, apart from the emergency situations at hand obviously like desaturation hypotension shock delirium and others. So for patients with relatively stable vitals after resuscitation especially for daily rounds in icu, FAST HUG BIDS is easy

[@TheICUChannel]

We added ONE also before .., ONE FAST HUG BID … O - oral care , N - Nebulization, E - eye care … this my personal modification

I love this channel, thank you😊. Like to suggest you show the components like facemask, bipap mask etc taken out of the plastic wrap, as the latter reflects light and one is not able to see them well. Ideally demonstrate them on some volunteer 😂
All the very best 👍🏼👍🏼

Sir one simple question. While connecting ventilator tubing with MV after intubation how to know which one is inspiratory and expiratory limb.

[@TheICUChannel]

the one which is connected to inspiratory port of ventilator is the inspiratory limb and the one which is connected to the expiratory port is the expiratory limb. Its mention on the ventiator.

[@vijayalakshmicmsunderaj595]

First day Orientation is essential.

Yup . 👍🏼

[@kanniahmutharasan3083]

You did not mention about arterial blood pressure monitoring which is most often used in icu patients

[@TheICUChannel]

Covered in part 2 , check the comment and description

[@ooolala152]

Actually theres a slight mistake... coz as per the new AHA guideline.. ABC has changed to CAB

It’s for BLS. Not for ACLS when trained people available.
