Two nights ago, Maria Cristina and her two colleagues, plus the pneumologist on duty, assisted only 15 patients: ten under the larger helmet, for patients in critical condition, two with the smaller one, and "three elderly people under morphine", with no hope of survival. From 50 to 80 years "with a prevalence of 60 years". "The helmets sound," he explains, "because as soon as one moves a little bit loses a little air and the helmet warns you that there is little oxygen. We never take it off because the lung is always extensive and oxygenated." His defines it as "the purgatorydepartment, between that of resuscitation, upstairs, and the one below, reserved for those who have a more favorable prognosis and go towards discharge. " A few days ago, we resuscita fenced off a 42-year-old man. As I shook his hand, he begged me:'Tell me I wake up, I have two little girls at home. My mask filled with tears. In my life as a nurse, I cried once at 18 and sometimes when long-term patients were missing, which I had become fond of. Now you cry every day, especially when you have to write three letters: NCR. Not a candidate for resuscitation."
