Of course you visit me

Page views: 1,347 This question is very popular. Am I allowed to visit you or are you uncomfortable? In itself, the question is understandable. But hey, I don't necessarily look like that, but I'm still the same complete idiot I used to be. Nothing has changed about the fact that I like company and can get anyone into bed. And let's see...

I told you so

Seitenaufrufe: 1,243 Um Sheldon zu zitieren, under normal circumstances I’d say I told you so. But, as I have told you so with such vehemence and frequency already the phrase has lost all meaning. Therefore, I will be replacing it with the phrase, I have informed you thusly. Fürn Arsch. Ich bin am Arsch. Oder bin ich am End...

If I don't do everything myself

Page views: 1,230 Prepared article, deliberately not up to date. I could have published this article a few days or weeks ago and deliberately decided against it in order to rule out any possible conclusions about the carers on duty at the time. I will clarify this with the QM and QB of the nursing service, but certainly not here. But the background is necessary for the story, otherwise...

Putting on the nose mask

Page views: 1,109 Attention! The manufacturer's instructions only describe the basic procedure for patients who require ventilation for support and can still breathe independently while the mask is being changed. As the mask is necessary for life support in my case, for example, we have to reconnect the tube much earlier and my ventilator is never switched off. This one...

Description of the individual parts of the nose mask

Seitenaufrufe: 1,002 Wie bei allen zitierten Herstelleranleitungen werde ich auch hier beizeiten um Erlaubnis bitten, bedanke mich aber schon im Vorfeld dafür. Die Nasenmaske kann zum Reinigen auseinandergebaut werden (siehe Abschnitt „Auseinanderbau“). Wenn der Schlauch straff gespannt ist – was nie so sein soll, aber täglich passiert – dann fällt die Nasenmaske aber auch schon mal im aufgesetzten Zustand...

ResMed AirFit N20 Classic Nasal Mask

Seitenaufrufe: 1,041 Tagsüber trage ich die Nasenmaske. Sie gibt mir ein sicheres Gefühl und erlaubt mir zumindest eine teilweise mündliche Kommunikation. Die Nasenmaske hat neben der weiteren Möglichkeit zu essen und zu trinken noch einen anderen, ganz entscheidenden Vorteil gegenüber der Nasen-Mund-Maske. Durch Öffnen von Mund und Gaumen kann ich einen Überdruck im Hals aufbauen, über den ich Sekret...

Lose weight

Seitenaufrufe: 1,163 Wenn du Tipps zum Abnehmen brauchst, da habe ich ein paar auf Lager. Mit ALS geht das noch konsequenter als mit den 25 km, die ich vor einiger Zeit noch in 2:35 gelaufen bin. Wie das Abnehmen der Maske funktioniert, erkläre ich im Punkt „Maskenwechsel“.

Putting on the nose-mouth mask

Page views: 1,005 For a basic understanding of the process of putting on the mask, I will first refer you to the manufacturer's instructions and translate the whole thing for you. Attention! The manufacturer's instructions only describe the basic procedure for patients who require ventilation for support and can still breathe independently while the mask is being changed. Since the mask in...

Philips Respironics Amara View Nasal-Mouth Mask

Page views: 987 Let's start with one of my most important tools of all. It is also the tool with which the most mistakes are made, because nobody explains it properly and apparently everyone thinks it will work somehow. From my experience with over 40 intensive care nurses (or supposed intensive care nurses), I can assure you that this is a dangerous fallacy. What...

My tools

Page views: 977 As we have already established, everything always seems to be different for me than for everyone else. I need to be ventilated, but I still opted for mask ventilation. Unfortunately, that puts most people off at first. But it's easy to put the masks on comfortably and accurately. Even without pressure points despite zero leakage. You just have to...
