You've never had a single complication?

You think intensivists, pulmonologists, and neonatologists can’t manage a vent? lol

I see pulmonologists, intensivists, cardiac surgeons, anesthesiologists, trauma surgeons, and triple board certified critical care cardiologists managing vents. I appreciate what you do but to think you know more about pulmonary physiology than a physician is ignorant.

These people also know more about ECMO (so there’s my tertiary ivory tower cred you are obviously impressed by).

What is your favorite Ponzi scheme?

OP said that MDs couldn’t “manage” a vent optimally. None of what you said has to to with actual vent management. “Gathering supplies” & assembly are not the difficult parts of vent mgmt. I have respect for what RTs do but to act like a pulmonologist can’t manage a vent is stupid.
