Yesterday, while rounding in the morning, we visited a patient who was suddenly gasping for breath. He had to be urgently intubated in order to keep breathing. It was fast and furious for 15 mintues while we crash intubated him. It was exciting, exhilarting and terrifying. And then I had to go talk to a whiny lady about her poop. Not my favorite kind of rebound, but it was a rebound...
