Dr. Cameron Kyle-Seidel on Ventilator Protocol Risks
Dr. Cameron Kyle-Seidel, an ICU physician in Brooklyn, warns that standard ventilator protocols for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) may be damaging the lungs of COVID-19 patients. He argues that these patients primarily need oxygen rather than the high-pressure air delivery currently being used. The doctor calls for an immediate national change in medical protocols to prevent further injury.
