St Boniface RT department was supported with an adjunct to one of our ventilators which allows us to ventilate patients with status asthmaticus using a mix of helium and oxygen. In addition, SBH RT has also rolled out a continuous nebulization policy in the critical care units which allows for continuous delivery of concentrated Ventolin continuously without constant refilling of the medication. Recently also adding syringe pump management competency to the list<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When this was rolled out, we soon received a patient from HSC for an ECMO consult following decompensation due to worsening status asthmaticus. With the foresight and courage to put education they just received to use, J-C preemptively placed the appropriate ventilator in the room prior to the patient coming and Kyle managed to pitch a case to the attending physician at the time to trial this therapy. This foresight eventually led to no indication for ECMO and the management of the patient with heliox and continuous nebulization until extubation and discharge from the ICMS. Both J-C and Kyle have been working at SBH since graduation and we are proud to have them as part of the team and for the continued bedside excellence!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id_f7d2e1-96 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id_f7d2e1-96 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id_f7d2e1-96 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}.kb-row-layout-id_f7d2e1-96 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id_f7d2e1-96 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id_f7d2e1-96 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id_f7d2e1-96 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-2-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column_ef659c-8a > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_ef659c-8a > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_ef659c-8a > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_ef659c-8a > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_ef659c-8a > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_ef659c-8a > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_ef659c-8a{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_ef659c-8a > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_ef659c-8a > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column_ef659c-8a\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-Kyle.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13534\" width=\"435\" height=\"311\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-Kyle.jpg 647w, https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-Kyle-600x429.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 435px) 100vw, 435px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Kyle Nickart<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column_4bca78-d5 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_4bca78-d5 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_4bca78-d5 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_4bca78-d5 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_4bca78-d5 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_4bca78-d5 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_4bca78-d5{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_4bca78-d5 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_4bca78-d5 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column_4bca78-d5\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-JC.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13535\" width=\"328\" height=\"328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-JC.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-JC-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-JC-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-JC-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cardiacsciencesmb.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Jan-13-JC-250x250.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 328px) 100vw, 328px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">J-C Simard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Some Good News<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Reported from SA Nancy Luxa-La Blanc<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We performed an EVH saphenous vein harvest January 13, 2023 for the first time on a young man in his 50&#8217;s who was a daily runner.&nbsp; The support from the foundation for this opportunity will improve patients post op care and lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The incision was approximately one inch and I was able to retrieve 2 pieces of vein from the thigh.&nbsp; Normally that would require an incision from the knee up to the groin.&nbsp; Over time and experience we will be able to harvest vein from the ankle to groin with the same one inch incision.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, patients are able to ambulate quicker.&nbsp; In centres where the leg infection rate is 17-20% the EVH system decreased the risk to less than 1%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, tomorrow will be the next harvest.&nbsp; My goal will be for the same success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cheers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nancy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fantastic news, Nancy.\u00a0 Thank you for sharing and congratulations!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Physician of the Week<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Doctors Manitoba publication, our very own Dr. Malik has been awarded physician of the week.&nbsp;
