A lot of discussion on self #proning for #COVID19, but is this strategy potentially increasing patient risk of delayed intubation (similar to NIV) in patients on an ascending disease trajectory?

Agree. I suggest something even better: avoid the word "withdrawn" "After discussion of prognosis and pt's values/preferences; the decision was made to transition to comfort care and prioritize pain & symptom control." @Surgpallcare @RedMDND @iwashyna @GioraNetzer @MdCCProject
#TipsForNewDocs “Family decided to withdraw care” is never appropriate in the chart. Better: "After discussion of prognosis and pt's values/preferences; life-prolonging measures to be withdrawn." Families don’t make medical decisions- don't document as such. #kittlesonrules
Interested in learning more about basic stats? I'm a huge fan of Dr. Burton Lee's series on mastering Numeracy via @MdCCProject: Part 1: maryland.ccproject.com/2014/… Part 2: maryland.ccproject.com/2014/… You will NOT be disappointed if you check these out.
