re: Have you ever been on a ventilator?

Yeah, woke up on one (uniinformed beforehand) after open heart. Tied down, thank the Lord. Didn't have a clue about being on one. Total nightmare. Every breath the machine did was ten seconds later than I hoped it would be and I mentally panicked everytime. I was very paranoid and on a lot of drugs.
I told two of my friends if I'm ever on a vent again and I'm not tied down, I would shoot them after I got well. But, in reality, I'd be dead from yanking that life-saving crap out of my body.
Thank the Lord for vents, btw.

I’m a PICU nurse and I’ve seen some kids just chill intubated and play their phones like it’s no big deal. In my experience anyone intubated is on some pretty serious sedation but it really depends on the vent settings.
