Episode 8 - Dr. Wes Ely and Every Deep Drawn Breath
Jan 12, 2023 Season 1 Episode 8
Matt Pavlichko, Jonathan Butler, and John Walsh

Dr. Wes Ely, the author of Every Deep Drawn Breath, describes his mission to prevent ICU patients from being harmed by the technology that keeps them alive. This is a powerful episode on how RTs, RNs, and MDs can do better by "aiming for the human heart...as we rebuild humanism in the ICU" and the A2F bundle as a toolbox to do just that.
