low pressure alarm if trach comes out?

Published

This might be a dumb question, but it's never happened to me before.

Does a low pressure alarm on an LTV 950 turn on if the trach comes out?

Really? You're going to internet bully me on a nursing forum? Get off my thread. I don't need your help. You need to work on your people skills. FYI No one cares how much you know if you don't share it without being a complete jerk about it. I know I don't.

I don't really want to explain this to you, because I don't like going out of my way to explain things to people I don't respect. But, I haven't had this patient for 3 months, and the low pressure setting has just been changed by a doctor at the request of my RT. Furthermore, I was not relying on the alarm, I was watching my patient. Go where you are most needed. You know? Somewhere someone wants to hear your crap.

Oh, and for the sake of your character, stop belittling people for asking questions.

The best policy is to not engage bullies and people who want to make you feel bad. Don't let them under your skin..;). Some people have a need to make other people feel bad to make themselves feel superior....for whatever reason. I never allow people like this get under my skin. I have always felt that if you really have the knowledge, there is no problem sharing it.
