Description

Alcohol withdrawal can send our patients into a spiral of delirium and downstream complications in the ICU. What are the risks of benzodiazepines for our patients even during alcohol withdrawal? How can we give our patients the best chance to walk away from ETOH withdrawal and critical illness? Dr. Obiajulu Anozie, MD joins us in this episode to explore the benefits of phenobarbital for alcohol withdrawal. www.daytonicuconsulting.com

Kali Dayton, DNP, ACNP-BC, is an ICU nurse practitioner and ICU consultant. She hands the microphone to ICU survivors and bedside caregivers to reveal the realities of ICU experience and patients' journeys after discharge. The big picture of sedation and immobility is discussed and we explore how to improve short and long-term patient outcomes. We shift the vision from transferring out of the ICU to walking straight home after the ICU. www.DaytonICUconsulting.com Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/restoringlife/support
