The attention times that a patient has on average in VAT have gone from 16 days of spring to 9.
Two doctors that Swedish Radio spoke to noted how patients do not stay at all to the same extent as last spring.
– They don’t get as super-inflammatory as last spring. Even if there are two patients every day, we get rid of one or two a day, and it’s hopeful, says Karin Frisell, chief physician and medical manager of the intensive care unit at Mälar Hospital in Eskilstuna.
“Many” who have been on a respirator have gotten rid of it after a few days, she says.
Better medicines and knowledge
The reason is believed to have several causes, according to Frisell:
• That has improved in the treatment with anticoagulants
• That many patients have often had time to receive a high dose of cortisone before ending VIA.
Magnus Gisslén, professor and chief physician at the Sahlgrenska infection clinic in Gothenburg, has also noticed a difference from this spring. According to him, it is also, in addition to better medication, that you have a greater knowledge of who can do without a respirator. Further:
– We have noticed that many patients seeking medical attention and are hospitalized now arrive a little earlier, before getting so sick. And in many cases, you can get better faster and go home faster. Then you have to remember that the health service asked him to wait, which was a bit unfortunate, he tells Ekot.
