Sydney discusses the importance of implementing in-line speaking valves for patients on a ventilator as part of the weaning process. In-line speaking valves also serve as an opportunity for chronically ventilated patients to use their voice. In part 1 of a two-part series, Sydney compares the implementation of in-line speaking valves in her experiences with an LTAC and an acute hospital. Sydney is a fount of information and your brain will feel 10x bigger after listening to her discuss the ins and outs of in-line speaking valves.
