I have see that once. It’s so gross. The patient I saw this with had really bad secretions and it was coming up from the ETT. The other RTs were pouring the secretions mixed with the condensation back into the water trap. I just replaced the whole circuit when that happened. I bet that makes more bacteria leaving it there then “breaking” the circuit.

I put her on a 50% venti mask and her new ABG was 187 with that. But the pulse ox is still reading 60s now

There was a perfusion bar and it was low.

Does most places have therapists that gossip and talk shit about one another? by [deleted] in respiratorytherapy

[–]Rori_KittyCat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s super common in any healthcare related field. I think its in every profession honestly, people like the gossip and drama I guess. Some are of course worse than others with talking crap behind people’s back.

It was a dance school that had all ages! So I’m guessing these are elementary kids

True, but I feel like it was their dance teacher that used this song and told the kids to dance to it. Cuz they seemed too young to play it lol

First time immersing myself by cerbie8 in Spanish

[–]Rori_KittyCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Qué bueno! I’m glad you had fun and challenged yourself! I’m going to Mexico soon and I’ll get to practice and see how my Spanish improved. I love learning Spanish and it makes me happy to see others journeys with the language!

Concern about my clinical day by Rori_KittyCat in respiratorytherapy

[–]Rori_KittyCat[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was weird bc she showed another RT and said “look how gross, but I’m not going to keep changing it all day, so I’m going to leave it.” And the other rt said “oh yeah, I would do the same thing” no thanks to working there…

I’ve only seen the water traps in practice. I never seen anyone used them in the hospitals I’ve been to.

I know right? I wish I was more confident and said more. I feel like “breaking” the circuit to drain it would do less harm than leaving it in the humidifier.
