Where are my nurses, respiratory therapist, friends with trach knowledge…
I noticed her breathing pattern change, checked the lines… almost filled with water. I realize a small amount of water is to be expected. But I was told “this is normal” by 2 people, and then 2 other people said “no that’s not normal”
Which one is it??? All I know is if your breathing through a tube, and it’s filled with water……we ain’t fish…
I did try to get the water out and accidentally knocked a tube off and re attached it quickly.
I’m just trying to understand how this machine works and getting conflicting answers: so please help with any knowledge you have!
Please and thank you in advance!
I’m going to post another video in the comment showing the amount of water after and what is a “normal” amount
