We present a case report that complements the conclusion of Stam et al. in their call to rehabilitation facilities to anticipate and prepare to address post intensive care syndrome in post-Covid-19 patients.
The case report presented here provides insight into treating mechanically ventilated post-Covid-19 patients.
Early intervention with dysphagia therapy and speech therapy and ventilator-compatible speak-ing valves, provided within an interprofessional collaborative team, can mitigate the potentially negative consequences of prolonged intubation, long-term use of cuffed tracheostomy, and post intensive care syndrome resulting from Covid-19.
Such a treatment approach can be used to address what is important to patients: to be able to speak with family and friends, eat what they want, and breathe spontaneously.
我们报告了一个病例,补充了 Stam 等人的结论,呼吁康复机构预测并准备好应对新冠后综合征患者的问题。
本病例报告提供了对新冠后机械通气患者治疗的深入了解。
通过多学科协作团队提供早期的吞咽障碍治疗和言语治疗,以及呼吸机兼容的说话阀,可以减轻因新冠而导致的长时间插管、长期使用带套囊气管切开和重症监护后综合征的潜在负面影响。
这种治疗方法可用于解决患者的重要问题:能够与家人和朋友交流、想吃什么就吃什么以及自主呼吸。
