Every deep breath. The dangerous side of resuscitation that no one talks about
Can saving lives cause harm? At first glance, this statement is paradoxical. However, once you find yourself in the therapy department, your life is divided into before and after: the longer you are there, the more time it takes to...
become yourself again. Resuscitation physician Wes Ely has taken the courageous step of going against the system and proposed important innovations that have changed the devastating treatment in resuscitation: he minimized sedation, ensured maximum mobility, and provided supportive postoperative care. His groundbreaking research has been endorsed by the entire medical community and shifted the focus of treatment from diagnosis to the patient’s identity. This is the story of how one doctor brought humanity into the intensive care unit and helped several thousand patients reclaim the lives they had outside the hospital walls.
