I was in the ICU 2 years ago. What I thought was just the flu turned into covid then pneumonia then severe ARDS. My lungs were filled with fluid and at one point my O2 got into the 60s. Had to go on a ventilator and nearly died. When I woke up, the staff was overjoyed to see me alive. One doctor nicely joked that he wanted a pic with me. No one thought I would make it. I still get flashbacks from the sedation and drugs I was on. Thought the hallucinations were real. My family never gave up on me and I'll never forget their faces when they saw me off the ventilator. I still go back on the anniversary of my extubation and bring the ICU staff donuts. I'm alive only by the grace of God.

these doctors do so much, and are underapreciated. my dad was admitted into the ICU in febuary and stayed there for around 2 weeks. he had a cardiac arrest and because of god and these wonderful doctors work, he made it out alive. amern and bless the souls who work here

I’m so grateful for these doctors, I’m 14 and I was dying in the ICU a few months ago and it felt like they were really careful and looked out for me and my mom. They tried to explain everything as clearly as possible when they were in the dark and kinda unsure themselves and made a scary experience feel safe. Yeah, it was loud and scary and very overstimulating and Also a life shattering amount of money to pay but those doctors and nurses saved my life and I’m forever grateful for that. We actually tried to leave because I felt fine, but they refused and told me I was dying. I wasn’t at all aware how badly my state was because of how much my body and the people around me normalized it. Everyone listen to your body and your doctors!

I have been in ICU a few times in 15 years. Amazing nurses and staff.

I had 2 blood clots in my brain & I had to experience what it's like in the ICU. This was in the midst of the Covid pandemic so no family could be up there with me. I had less then a 25 % chance of living. They went above & beyond and treated me Like family. I appreciate every nurse & doctor that saved my life. Not to mention God , God was the only reason I made it out..

ICU nurses go through a lot of ptsd which sucks they do so much for people and sometimes it doesn’t work . These people need more recognition

My mom was sent to 3 different hospitals for her fatty liver disease. The last hospital she was at they thought she was doing better but she ended up turning for the worst having cihrossis of the liver. They ended up taking her to ICU where she spent the remaining 2 days of her life in before having to tell me and out family she wasn’t gonna make it during the night. Me and some family members ended up having to drive quickly to this hospital which was a couple of hours away because we lived in the country to pull the plug in my dying mother before it was too late. We ended up getting there in the brink of time and we said our goodbyes before pulling that plug and watching her go....It was the worst thing I’ve ever experienced in my life

I'm dealing with a COVID-19 epidemic in my region and especially in my town right now and this is helping me because I had no idea of what happens in the ICU.

My youngest daughter had minor surgery and had a severe allergic reaction to anesthesia.. she crashed and was placed on life support ... She was in a coma.. her team was outstanding... they all worked together in her.. Drs , nurses , respitory , labs , pastors and more.. I was allowed to stay with her the entire time..She spent over 2 weeks on life support .. she had an IV line in her neck , monitors , my daughter did wake up and when she no longer required ET tubes to breathe she was transferred out of ICU..

I've been in the ICU for about 3-4 days after I've been diagnosed with T1D in December and the nurses i had there were amazing !!

My loved one was put in the icu for 44 days and died a few years ago. These people are highly trained professionals.

I was here because my cousin was in the ICU and I am curious why it is not allowed to stay with the patient atleast 1 relative to take care and oversee the patient. And now I know. Thanks for this video. I hope my cousin will survive in Jesus name😇🙏

I have just had a 2wk stay in ICU due to urosepsis. My memories of the unit are all muddled in with my dreams. I have lost touch with the reality of the stay. It's a frustrating state of mind. This video has helped fill in some of the blanks. Thank you.

In the ICU at the moment seeing my mom atm. She has a leaking valve and her kidneys are failing her. I remember walking in and seeing the oxygen mask amd tubes all over...as a grown man, I started crying. Not a sight you want to see...gotta stay positive.

Project Hospital first sent me down the medical rabbit hole. This is fascinating stuff!

I appreciate these videos; they are quite helpful to families.

My baby brother had a surgery to repair his colon and setup a G-Tube for him, and just today we found out it went wrong. His Blood pressure dropped to 50/30, and he went pale. Currently going thru the emotions, and while this helps it's scary nonetheless (Especially because I have no idea what is happening, and what's wrong)

I was admitted to ICU because I had developed (after a small op) NPPE Type 2. BIPAP for three days.

my dad was in ICU but he recovered :D

Thankx so much From moradabad u.p. India.

What about when you have to crap

I have breathing problems with my lungs

I had a critical illness and was in a coma, paralyzed, and had a tracheostomy. The hospital staff allowed a male stranger off the street in my room bc he said he was a pastor. He was not a pastor and neither I nor my family knew him! My family learned about it a few weeks later. I was terrified thinking he would return. The hospital admitted it happened. I was hospitalized 55 days altogether. I complained to the staff but they didn’t care. I tell this to let everyone know one is not safe in a hospital. I did file a complaint with JCAHO and the policy of just letting someone who ‘says’ they are a pastor in someone’s room without asking family may have changed. But I will never trust a hospital again. Beware of leaving your loved alone!!
