The Hottest Questions About Curtain

Do you want to know about curtain? Here are some frequently asked questions.

1. Curtain pannels aren't wide enough, what can I do?

Buy a double curtain rod. Hang sheers on the inner rod (very inexpensive, usually around $10) to extend the entire width. Then hang the curtains on the outer rod and plan to leave them open, either with tie backs and hanging loose

2. i think my son has a tattoo on his back? how can i catch him ?

i wouldnt even spend money. the next time he is in the shower sneak in and look. the sound of the shower should drown out the door opening and he would never see you comeing, unless you have a see threw curtain. if you did even better. kind of hard to cover it up when his completely naked. or just make him lift his shirt and tell you. hes your son and its your house

3. Introducing the "Corona Curtain”: an innovative technique to prevent airborne COVID-19 exposure during emergent intubations

The "Corona Curtain" is built with common, low-price plumbing materials available from community hardware stores. These include the following specific items: None Cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) tubes of inch (1.9 cm) diameter, cut to a length of 6 ft (1.8 m) and 10 ft (3 m), respectively. Two tubes of either length are needed for the assembly of one tent. None Two air chambers of in. (1.3 cm) diameter and 8 in. length (20 cm). None One 45 curved coupler of in. (1.3 cm) diameter. None One T-type coupler of in. (1.3 cm) diameter. None One diameter-reducing coupler of in. (1.3 cm) to 3/8 in. (1 cm) diameters. None One copper coil tube of 3/8 in. (1 cm) diameter and 3 in. length (7.6 cm). None Plastic drape of size 10 ft 12 ft (3 m 3.7 m), to cut off a roll at the appropriate length (for example, use D250 bagging film with temperature rating of 200 F/93 C). The schematic drawing in Fig. 1 depicts the assembly steps for the "Corona Curtain". The specific underlying materials are shown in Fig. 2. The PEX tubes are cut at a length of 6 ft (blue tubes) and 10 ft (red tubes). Distinct tube colors were selected to allow easy differentiation of the two sizes in daily practice. The two copper pressure air chambers of 8 in. length (20 cm) are cut at the following distinct lengths: None Cut 2 in. (5 cm) off the open end (#2 in Fig. 2, panel d), and use the residual part for the 45 riser (#2 in Fig. 2, panel c). None Cut 4 inches (12 cm) off the open end (#4 in Fig. 2, panel d) and use the residual part for the vertical riser (#4 in Fig. 2, panel c). The copper parts are welded together for assembly of the tube post (Fig. 2, panel c). The posts are inserted to the bed through the 3/8 in. (1 cm) connecting coil tube which fits different types of commonly used patient beds in the ED (Fig. 3). The PEX tubes are then inserted to the receiving ends on the copper post, by connecting the two vertical risers and the two 45 risers each with one tube (Fig. 3). The plastic drape roll is mounted in a convenient and easily accessible place in the ED, and the predetermined length of the drape to be cut off is marked by a line on the floor (Fig. 4). The drape is attached to the proximal PEX tube with a binder clip and the construct is then ready for use in the ED bay for emergent intubations (Fig. 5). 5). Alternatively, the equipment can be stored in the respective ED bays for fast ad-hoc assembly within one minute. The clear plastic drapes are precut at the determined length and stored with the other tent materials. The length of the PEX tubes depends on the specific patient needs. We utilize blue PEX tubes at 6 ft length (1.8 m) for standard intubations in patients placed in supine position, which also allows to perform chest compressions, if indicated during a resuscitation. The red PEX tubes are longer, at 10 ft length (3 m), and thereby provide a larger tent size. This is helpful for situations when the patient's head needs to be elevated, e.g. during patient transport on high-flow nasal cannula or BiPAP. Once the frame is set up and the patient is positioned on the bed, the plastic drape is expanded over the PEX tubes and the patient. The edge of the drape at the head of the bed needs to extend to the floor for complete occlusion. A binder clip is applied to hold the drape to the first PEX tube which prevents the drape from sliding (Fig. 5). Subsequently, all of the work on the patient's airway is performed under the tent (Fig. 6). Healthcare personnel can reach under the drape, and there is ample space to use a bag valve mask prior to intubating the patient, with the provider standing at the head of the bed and the nurse or respiratory therapist on the side. We recommend to utilize video laryngoscopy for improved visibility and to increase the distance between provider and patient (Fig. 6). Our ED physicians' preference is to wear "hazmat" suits during emergent intubations (Fig. 7). The other team members wear standard PPE with N95 masks, goggles, and face shields (Fig. 7). The single-use drape is discarded after intubation and the remaining tent construct materials are terminally cleaned with bleach to be reutilized in a subsequent case.
