Anyone has a link to a description of the actual ventilator? I'm an anesthesiologist/intensivist so I'm a specialist in mechanical ventilation. Would be fun to see what they came up with!

- hdjrorkdk 7y agoI have an oxygen concentrator, a CPAP/APAP machine and a finger oxymeter. Do you maybe have any links to a crash course into how to use them as an improvised non invasive ventilator, more specifically on how to decide what pressure to use, or maybe can suggest some relevant keywords?
- rckoepke 7y agohttps://pastebin.com/BE2aTQJ4 https://pastebin.com/BE2aTQJ4 This Seattle ICU doctor is recommending that other doctors just generally skip positive pressure ventilation and move directly to intubation, because they feel it's inevitable that the patient will shortly need intubation if they currently need positive pressure. > "given the inevitable rapid progression to ETT once resp decompensation begins, we and other hosps, including Wuhan, are doing early intubation. Facemask is fine, but if needing HFNC or NPPV just tube them. They definitely will need a tube anyway, & no point risking the aerosols."
