I am a brand new nurse in the ICU. And 90% of our patients are Covid patients. This video series helps alot.

[@ICUAdvantage]

Glad they have been of help for you. Hoping things improve soon for you all there.

My boyfriend suffered 2 massive strokes on bolth sides of his brain he went to the hospital diagnosed with covid and within 2 days this happened. He is only 46. We just had a baby, he is left basically in a vegetative state on a trach his family wouldnt let him go in peace. I am just here trying to research what and why this happened to him. I miss him so much. Thanks for the video.

[@ICUAdvantage]

So sorry to hear about your BF and that you are going through this.

[@kcslp4412]

Hi Chilla! I am sitting her 2 years and 5 months since my beautiful husband passed away. He was 48 years old. He was low energy, low appetite, not peeing too often and had a swollen leg for a couple days. On day 3 he had 2 massive strokes from clots in his carotid artery. No cough (that came later) and no one thought COVID. Within hours all they could tell me was they see clots all over. It was March 16, 2020 and nobody could explain this and everyone was arguing over who should even be tested for COVID. He was on a ventilator by that night and never regained full consciousness. He reached for me during the one visit they let me have when they pulled me in to tell me his poor prognosis - if he survived, at best he would be basically in a vegetative state. 8 days later, he had sudden cardio-pulmonary arrest and the nightmare ended. I just want you to know that you are not alone in this confusing, horrific experience. My hubby was 48 and we had our first IVF retrieval planned for the next week....we never made it. So happy you two had a baby....what a blessing! God bless you!....Not sure of your outcome by now, but YOU live on.

[@shilohpeterson5307]

Thank you. Interestingly enough I came down with Covid when I was 8weeks pregnant. Got through it with clinically mild symptoms and no known damage to the fetus so far (18 weeks now). OBGYN told me to start taking low dose aspirin because apparently they are seeing some cases of restricted uterine growth from micro clotting in the placenta. Just thought that was interesting!

[@ICUAdvantage]

Wow, it seems like every week there is something new to learn about this disease. I hadn't heard of this one, but honestly I don't have a lot of exposure in the OB world. Thanks for sharing!

[@loayalnasser2472]

More more please I really love your method actually your explanation is incredibly interesting

[@ICUAdvantage]

Thanks Loay. Glad you like them!

[@JAnuRockyssHare]

Is DIC S D major complication in post covid 19?

[@ryanfarkas106]

Can you please share links to studies showing benefits for therapeutic doses of anticoags vs prophylactic doses in COVID pts.? I still have MDs who resist this trend. Thanks!

[@ICUAdvantage]

Let me see what I can dig up...

[@kainatayub9264]

what is the resource for information between 4-5 min mark (RAAS system)

[@RN1BSN]

Thanks for another amazing video! Any videos on T1DM and Peds?

[@ICUAdvantage]

Thank you so much! I did briefly mention T1DM in my endocrine series. As for peds, I don't have any experience in that world so I can't really speak to that info.

Age 43 yrs Male - What is the treatment for high ddimer post covid ? I got covid in late April and was discharged in 2nd week of May. I lost my fistula during covid as it clotted . Currently dialyzing thru permacath. My ddimer levels haven't normalized even 6 mths after recovering from Covid. They are at 2000 (normal less than 500) right now. I'm under dialysis and my neph has prescribed Eliquis 2.5 mg once a day on non dialysis days (I'm on dialysis since the last 8 years). I've been having this tablet for the past 4 months but ddimer has not reduced . Have also tried a course of 6 clexane 40 injections but that had no effect. Any advice ?Thanks

[@gary5248]

I had 1.19 ug/mL when I was hospitalized. How bad is that?

[@anaisailovic3357]

I am 2,49 ug/ml and i’m not hospitalised. I’m on fraxiparin.

[@hannahasmr1080]

Hey! So quick question, would you recommend all people with a covid-19 infection take some form of anticoagulation (like baby asa), or just those who are hospitalized and have the cytokine storm, etc. I have a mild case and am almost 2 weeks out and a coworker told me to take aspirin, which I really don't think I need. I have no symptoms of DVT/PE.

[@ICUAdvantage]

I'm not sure a baby aspirin would be effective. I did a video covering the MATH+ protocol which specifically includes Low Molecular Weight Heparin (kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJa4mYyfrcqrfs0) as a part of the early intervention treatment. The anticoagulant isn't to prevent DVT/PE, but micro clotting that can be seen. I would think 2 weeks out you are past the stage where this would be of greater concern, but I would highly suggesting talking with your PCP/Provider about pros and cons and potential treatments.

[@ICUAdvantage]

My experience is with critically ill hospitalized patients, so I honestly can't speak much to the milder cases. Hope you stay mild and have a quick recovery!

[@BigDaddyCane777]

If a D-Dimer increases day by day 1000, 1400, 1600 etc., what does this indicate?

[@elpedro812]

I’m sorry, but why are factor 7 and VWF elevated, if we have too much coagulation?

[@TheMrfurrows]

This doesn’t seem as common with Covid these days…but I had a patient today who seemed to be heading down this path. Thank you for the info!

[@ICUAdvantage]

Yeah definitely rare now when it used to be so common.

[@shadisrm2676]

I have a question and I will be very thankful if you answer that: how can we estimate the number and the size of thrombosis in a alveolus capillary?

[@mymonster156]

Angiogenesis in Pulmonary vasculature may be stopped by Avastin and similar chemotherapeutics.

[@elizabethmonje3126]

Thank you for putting videos out there will educate us when covid hit my home my son and I we practice prevention but really didn't know anything about the virus my son went to Banner hospital emergency room because he was scared they told him he had pneumonia gave him antibiotics and prednisone by the third day of taking the meds had to call 911 the hospitalized them incubated him and he died no shocked had to find answers went to the hospital information portal and I found that they had given him a wrong diagnosis it's in the report 40 years old no underlying conditions breathing good the doctor checked his lungs at the lungs were clear his x-ray said they were not sure vague but the last doctor took it up on himself to say covid pneumonia she forgot to look at the details she was negligent she was in a hurry to get them out and it cost my son's life her negligence I'm not saying that all doctors are negligent I'm saying that this one was negligent so all I do is when the people check out your hospital make sure it's a good one don't go to the hospital unless you have to do your research lawyers will not touch covid cases so I can do is want people
