I know, I know ...it’s long. Would love to hear what some of the OT docs think about it.
Cliff notes: vents may do more harm than good in some cases

Anyone can publish on Medium per our Policies, but we don’t fact-check every story.

Actually I was talking to a very experienced surgeon who says the thinking is becoming just that, vents are doing more harm than good.

And this is a theory as to why that may be the case. If so, could drastically change outcomes. It may not have any validity, but I found it interesting.

I admitted that much bc it's a bullshite opinion article that they admit isn't checked.

We got to stop spreading everyone's opinion posted on every fake news page like this BS. So much wrong from a medical verbiage standpoint I don't even know where to start. NO....just no STOP

A good OP would include a number of selected quotes from the liked article that the OP finds interesting.

Like the projections of millions dying that are updated hourly? No one really has a clue, quit acting like some do.
The theory virus attaches to the hemes, so it's not even a lung issue at first. The ventilator isn't doing anything

If they had the IQ to read it I doubt they could understand it, it's all about muh ventilator and muh no clinical trials

That's a very stupid article if it can be summed up with that statement.
I read the first 5ish paragraphs and skimmed the rest and can conclude that the summary, which I thought was stupid, is smarter-sounding than the article.

I can almost guarantee it includes a quote like this"
"I'm not a doctor, but. . . "
and, probably even closer to the end as well.

Didn’t the doc that did a Q & A last week on here say, “do everything possible to NOT get on a bent?”

It’s an interesting theory. He does a decent job of describing the virus abd vent, and hemoglobin. But did a terrible job describing the drug. And that’s not the mechanism by which we think it works.
However, this virus is something we’ve never seen before. Meaning it’s causing the medical community to rethink how we handle diseases. It’s causing things we wouldn’t expect.
And because of that premise, thinking “outside the box” is what we need. We do know it binds the beta 1 heme chain. Whether that causes disassociation, with resulting hypoxia, who knows. Something we need to study

This is so last week it isn't even funny.
Plus who is this douchebag who authored the blog?
Not saying he's wrong but this vents bad, Hydrox good thing has been going around for the past two weeks for real yo. Just don't want to hear it the tenth time from a hack blogger for Jezebel with absolutely no medical credentials.
