Bigger trach = Better results
The ENT doc just came and changed his 4.0 PED cuffed trach to a 4.5 and, despite some bleeding, he is ventilating better and able to come off of the rate and back to his previous settings of just CPAP and pressure support (7 over 8). Mechanical problem indeed. Thank God!
