Video editing and narrating

Posted by DavidStHubbins on 8/23/21 at 11:13 am
I'm looking to narrate over a video as well as add pop-up text (though narration is priority over text). I'd like to be able to create pauses in video and have narration continue, then resume the video with narration continuing. A friend of mine recommended Lightworks, but this is my first try at...

What color is it? Do you use a steroid inhaler or using antibiotics lately?...

Decision-making for tracheostomy in COVID patients is not quite the same as in non-COVID patients. We hadn't really established guidelines for this until well into April. Many of our critical care colleagues frequently consult us to sort through this, particularly in LA as many of our patients hav...
They are using evidence from a multitude of studies regarding ARDS. First, they delay intubation with other means of oxygenation for longer than we usually do with things like BIPAP and high flow nasal cannula. The remaining items are for after intubation, and they include use of tidal volume based...
[link=(https://youtu.be/Ngu5-iOHdS4)]The algorithm for COVID treatment at UMC New Orleans[/link] I can’t speak for the ED folks who have prescribed it for early infection, but I have not seen it be useful in the ICU setting where I am currently, nor have my colleagues in Nola had much success.

I mean if you want to invent this CPAP converted machine, what’s stopping you? You’re very focused on the machine, but you’re forgetting the bigger side of the equation. The human physiology needs to be accounted for....
Except an oropharyngeal airway doesn’t go into the windpipe. If you insert something down the windpipe (trachea), it would be called an endoTRACHEAL tube. We call that intubating. In regards to allowing the lungs to expirate, the alveoli (smallest unit of lung tissue involved with CO2 and O2 exch...
Another thing to also consider is the recommendations against positive airway pressure via mask ventilation due to concern of aerosolizing particles. If you don’t have proper seal when masking someone, you risk aerosolizing a room which in the case of Covid has been shown to remain aerosolized up to...
You have to think of breathing as a spectrum. CPAP/BIPAP is used with certain degrees of respiratory difficulties. The end of the spectrum for respiratory distress/ARDS though is intubation and mechanical ventilation. Last ditch efforts are placing people prone and sometimes the controversial changi...
Start with a GI specialist then. They might refer you to ENT to rule out throat stuff at some point, but if you’ve answered No to the questions I’ve asked you, it’s not likely to do with upper esophagus and above (as you’ve probably figured out by now). Is it just solids at this point? Any diffi...
Do you smoke/use tobacco? Did you at some point smoke or use tobacco for a while? Pain with swallowing? Frequent throat clearing? Change in voice? Cough? Any inner ear pain or an itchiness that just wouldn’t go away?...
You can get either of the shingles vaccines after already having shingles. If you have had shingles recently, you can perhaps give it a few years as your immune system is still probably “revved up” and preventing another outbreak (according to the advisory committee on immunization practices).

Save the money and live in metry near Bucktown. Can take 610 in, get off at St Bernard and take the service road to the school. If you have to do CBD, you can take canal or Tulane to Carrollton, take that up to Desaix. Shouldn’t come close to taking 30m either way....
Though they both have LSU in the name, they really aren’t affiliated with each other except that they are both state institutions. My understanding is that your wife basically took an option to transfer class credit from LSU main campus into LSUHSC’s nursing program and foregoing getting a degree at...

If it’s foggy enough, they’ll block off a lane, lower the speed limit, and have a cop drive through every so often....
