In the epidemic, I think some families should stock a ventilator, after all, each family and each family his situation is different, but also should have the appropriate knowledge to be able to, stock a ventilator is not all patients need to stock. Ventilator in the hospital treatment is mainly used for severe pneumonia, respiratory failure patients, if only on the infection of the new coronary virus to do the preparation, then, completely unnecessary, because now the new coronary virus infected patients with serious illnesses are rare.
It can be said that since the outbreak of the epidemic, many people have panic buried in their hearts, from the rush to buy Banlangen, to Lianhua Qingdian capsule sold out, and now to the respiratory machine, it can be said that this wave of operation, really dazzling.
Shanghai, a hospital famous respiratory department director to prepare a ventilator family, said the ventilator in the hospital treatment is mainly used for severe pneumonia, respiratory failure patients, if only to the infection of the new coronary virus to do the preparations, then, there is no need, because now the new coronary virus infection of patients with serious illnesses are very few.
There are also very few severe cases of neocoronavirus infections with the Omicron variant, as shown in data from a very large sample. A study published in the June 18 issue of the CDC's weekly newsletter showed that between March 22 and May 3 of this year, 33,816 patients infected with non-serious cases of omicronjon in Shanghai had a zero rate of serious illness, according to the study.
So what is a ventilator all about? And what is its principle? Only after understanding these can you judge whether it is necessary to have a ventilator in your home!
The ventilator is divided into two categories: non-invasive and invasive, and according to the principle of the ventilator, it is also divided into two categories: medical ventilator and home ventilator.
In the hospital, the medical ventilator according to the patient's condition, physical characteristics, blood oxygen saturation and a series of other conditions, through a series of parameter monitoring and feedback system, the doctor uses the knowledge and all the equipment to supply gas and the patient to achieve respiratory synchronization, this set of complex equipment system on the operation of the requirements of the high, as long as there is any deviation, the respiratory machine may be problematic, endangering the life of the patient, so the Professional medical use.
Home ventilators, generally non-invasive ventilators, the use of the conditions are also very convenient and simple, is a medical ventilator "simplified version". The home ventilator is easy to carry, and to achieve the therapeutic purpose, the home ventilator by the motor, the main board, the flow sensor, humidifier, mask, and tubing and other parts of the composition.
Home ventilators are generally necessary for the following three kinds of patients:
1, sleep apnea patients, the most prominent manifestation of such patients is to sleep "snoring" loudest. Usually also obese people, there will be apnea and hypoxia.
2, tachycardia , is the motor neuron is affected by the patient, these patients respiratory no matter, but this kind of patients because of the "no strength" breathing, but also according to the development of the disease is also the need for family back-up ventilator.
3, chronic respiratory failure patients . Chronic lung disease, asthma, pulmonary heart disease and so on these patients, in the development of the disease to a certain stage, there will be respiratory failure, hypoxia and a series of symptoms, then you need oxygen, breathing support. However, such patients also need a ventilator under the guidance of a doctor. Help the patient to expel carbon dioxide to inhale oxygen. And it also needs to be based on the patient's condition. Sometimes it is also necessary to home ventilator with oxygen machine to work.
Don't know see here readers, you still think there is a need to have a respirator in the family?
Many families do not have such patients, there is no need to have a ventilator. The price of a ventilator ranges from 3,000 to 10,000 yuan, and the most popular ventilators are those that cost about 5,000 yuan. Although the average family can afford this ventilator. But I don't think it's necessary to pay all this money for a ventilator that the average family can't afford, and it takes up a lot of space if you keep it at home.
Of course, when the epidemic was at its worst, some patients could only be treated at home in self-isolation, and these patients could not go to the hospital because of breathing difficulties, so it occurred to them that they should stock up on a ventilator when there was no epidemic, and I think such families should stock up on a ventilator!
First of all, we should first understand the role of the ventilator, there is no knowledge in this regard, can not listen to others to prepare a ventilator, they also rush to prepare a, in this case, there is no such thing as a necessary, Chronic respiratory disease of the family, it is necessary to prepare for a respiratory machine at home to prepare for a rainy day, but the general patient, once a respiratory distress is serious, then the
People, do you think what I said makes sense? You can comment in the comment section below, we *** with the discussion, look forward to your participation.
