Not sure how I didn’t answer this!!!! We’ve all been there! You r got this!!!

Oh wow that’s so fantastic!! So impressive you were able to apply it in the thick of a stressful situation!!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us- so encouraging :)

I can’t tell you how happy your message has made us! Exactly why we wanted to make these videos!!! What you feel is what every single person in medicine has felt numerous times. It’s great that instead of giving up- you’re working to get better. Your patients are very lucky to have you!

So glad you found this helpful

Thank you for being here! Wish we had time to release a couple a week but they’re quite time consuming- we’re slow and steady!!!!

Oh thank you! Everyone becomes an expert when they’ve done 100s or maybe 1000s of something- right? Thank you so much for being here!

Love this so much. It really is amazing the access we have now to excellent free education. I'm going to do a video on free websites etc we can use (and I do use)!

Thank you so much! Appreciate you watching! Let me know if you’re interested in a video or some questions at all!!

Thank you so much for watching- hopefully it’s clinically helpful!

Absolutely! Thank you so much for watching and for subscribing and being such a great supporter!

Thank you so much for watching! Appreciate you taking the time to comment :)

So glad you find them encouraging too! Everyone can get there!!

Oh great! Thanks so much for watching and for commenting :)

Changed my life!!!! Ha! It’s nice knowing that the issue is fixable though!!!!

So glad you found it helpful! Thank you for taking time to write!

Thank you for taking time to write )

This is something we all struggle with- the key thing is putting the tube in from the side of the mouth- to maximize your view as long as possible. In the tiny ones this is harder because there’s so little room! Keep going- this is a relatively easy aspect of intubation to fix!!!

Hello- that's so interesting- and apparently completely cultural. I have a colleague who can do either, but apart from him, every intubation I've done or seen has been oral.

Hello- so sorry took so long to reply! We did another view showing the steps of intubation- is that what you were thinking? Would love some advice on what you think would be most helpful way to show in a video!!! Thanks!!!

@@TalaTalksNICU I know that you are too much busy to reply I mean for showing videos for neonatal intubation and to comment on it that is true and beneficial and help in intubation success and that is make intubation difficult and failed.thanks

I love that you do things a different way! Cannot emphasize enough that a lot of what we do- especially with procedures is personal opinion!!! I’m not sure if that comes through enough in our videos- this is just the way I do it- not how you need to do it! Thank you for sharing and for watching!!!

about the higher refractive index you mentioned, are you suggesting a particular no or the same one I use for reading at home. Thanks@@TalaTalksNICU

Higher than you use for reading!!! Like maybe 1 higher!! I love it!

It's difficult to appreciate how important experience is when you don't have it. Either we feel- I'll never be able to do that, or the opposite- I've done this a few times, so I've got it. Experience teaches a lot but also very humbling!!! Thank you for your comment! I have been about the same weight for a long time0 just bigger scrubs! :)

Please don't speak for younger generations. A lot of people from YOUR generation have exactly the same problem. It's an uncomfortable situation having to learn a new skill as an adult. It comes with a lot of feelings of inadequacy. The less huge of an ego you have, the easier it is to accept you cannot know everything and cannot learn without failing. All this to say, please stop acting like this is a problem reserved for "younger generations". It's simply not true.

@ceciliai.ogwude2845 Sorry. It is not good to generalise. Thanks for bringing it.

I think something was lost in what I was saying. By NO means was I saying that my generation knows everything!!!! It is really really difficult learning a new skill and my point was that the more everyone does the better they are. Literally everyone can become proficient. It was supposed to be very encouraging- in no way disparaging anyone!!!! Literally last thing on my mind

@@docvaruna thank you🙏🏾

Hello! thank you so much! I work in Texas in US. (We actively keep our hospital and practices out of this channel because even though they allow us to continue the channel, we are not speaking on their behalf)!!

@@TalaTalksNICU ty a lot for the feedback! Do they accept fellowship program?

@felipeguinancio7456 hello! No we don’t have fellows in our hospitals (that would be nice though!)

@@TalaTalksNICU so sad!

Hello! I love you called me Dr. Nala- my maiden name began with an N, so people called me that all the time! Congrats on your baby! I would think it would be very unlikely from the intubation- maybe that caused irritation or something at the time- but that would have resolved. I'm not sure how long he was intubated for? I hope he continues to improve XX

@@TalaTalksNICU oh gosh, darn autocorrect! Thank you so much for your response Dr. Tala! My daughter was intubated for 2 weeks. I wondered, because she also has a short neck, but who knows. Anyways, love your videos! I am learning so much, and I’m not even a doctor, just a graduated NICU mom!

@rritalimaj8186 ha! That’s a safe autocorrect compared to some of the howlers I’ve sent!!! I don’t know why we see feeding issues in patients who have been intubated for some time. It does seem to affect their coordination. But those speech therapists work miracles and babies do get better (especially with thicker foods)! Thanks so much for being here!

I’d start with 1 or 1.5! (Obviously I’m not an ophthalmologist but would literally be using for 15 seconds or whatever takes to intubate!)

@@TalaTalksNICU Thank you. I will give it a try!
