🆔 About regularcrisis and ESBICM
Regularcrisis.com is now also affiliated with Educational Society of Bedside Intensive Care Medicine (ESBICM) for creating educational videos for health care professionals specially working in ICU and ER. esbicm.com
Inspiration behind the project:
Intensive care unit and emergency department are the backbones of any hospital where all critical situations are managed. Everyday is a crisis like situation there and with time the team working there get used to it with. With time, their skill gets more sharpen with which they manage these situations more and more efficiently each time.
But most importantly, the experience which they accumulate is invaluable; their experiences teach them things which at times are not mentioned in the regular textbooks. What if this experience is shared with the doctors and nurses who are newly joined in ICU and ER!
Regularcrisis.com serves this purpose only. We share educational material (mainly videos and forums discussion) which is a blend of latest guidelines and rich experience of ICU and ER teams.
🤝 We hope that this small effort of ours will be of some help to those working in ICU and ER.
Note: regularcrisis is founded by Dr. Ankur Gupta, an Intensivist. #drankurgupta

Sir can you please make vedio on significance of dilution of drug.bcoz there is no uniformity in doc's order, m sharing my experience peds surgeon says dilute all antibiotics in 50 ml, someone says 80 ml and NICU doc's says don't dilute to much give it in 2ml that we understand newborn is there so much dilution can cause fluid overload but what about peds and adult patients.m asking this question to clear my concept so that in future I can implement in my clinical practice.dilution is important or giving slow antibiotics is important.

[@TheICUChannel]

Nice point raised . Will get back to u on this

[@jaishivajimaharaj4588]

Very well explain mam

[@MyChannel-gi6pi]

Thing is to just find the Break-point to MIC Quotient ( i.e., ratio ). The higher the ratio of that sensitive antimicrobial, higher is its effectiveness.

[@rizaragasa]

simple but excellent explenation.

Thanks a lot , this comment was nice

[@durganandyadav3794]

Very useful sir

[@ros5171]

Mic of isolate for teicoplanin (0.5) is far from susceptible break point (8), compared to mic of isolate for vancomycin (1) and susceptible break point (2). Thus teicoplanin concentration very low, thus more sensitive than vancomycin

How and when do we use the resistance breakpoints Sir?

[@TheICUChannel]

That’s what exactly shown in the video … can u specify the specific issue

[@avinabd4501]

@@TheICUChannel i mean we are comfortable enough to choose an antibiotic out of the lot when its sensitive ,but my query is can we use the resistance breakpoints in choosing combination therapies for mdr or pdr strains?

[@TheICUChannel]

@@avinabd4501 without breakpoints , technically MIC has got no or little value .
