1/ 🫁 Recently bronched a patient with a gunked up ETT and wonder how often this happens? From #journal_CHESTCritCare:
369 ETTs cut and measured degree of blockage (see pic)
📊 Moderate blockage common (CICU 28%, MICU 17%)

Staycation: meant to relax, but no meetings = deep focus mode unlocked. Actually finished two long-procrastinated paper drafts. 😮 Now I really deserve this #ClairObscur #Expedition33 and cat snuggle time. 🧠🎮 🐱🌸
