As someone who is about to come into asthma season in the region(300 in one
day last year) and who has actually ventilated a few asthmatics(without a
death) i would be interested in anything that staves it off especially with
JHO's about to face it alone off 5 minutes until they can get help
putting the tube in these people is easy
its keeping them alive while you are doing it that is the problem
Did anyone ever write these up?
