3 - Pre-ox, ap ox > expanding safe apnea time - Ventilate during onset of muscle relaxants? Are we responsible for the Difficult Airway? Why is cutting the neck the ultimate response to Cannot Intubate, Cannot Oxygenate?

4 What lessons should we take away from the Elaine Bromiley case? Elaine Bromiley Case 2005 Clinical Human Factors Group, UK cannot intubate, ventilate in FLAT position via MOUTH

5 Jones, DH & Cohle, SD Anesth Analg. 1993; 77: Are we responsible for the difficult airway?

6 Two year old in cardiac arrest.bagged en route supine positioning gravity causes airway collapse midline head position tongue obstruction heart collapses posterior lung segments anterior lung collapses posterior alveoli face-mask seal created by pushing down Ergonomics of ventilation from above Gas into shared aero-digestive tract Insufflation pressure > stomach distention Stomach distention > decreased lung excursion Breath stacking decreases cardiac return Stomach and head same level > regurgitation

7 Hypoxia, Hypotension, Aspiration No difference between experts vs non-experts Experts provided cricoid pressure significantly less often (56 vs. 81%), and did less attempts

8 Incidence and factors associated with cardiac arrest complicating emergency airway management. Heffner AC, et. al. Resuscitation Nov;84(11): pa(ents; CA occurred in 17/410 (4.2%), median 6 min post intuba(on. Pulseless electrical ac(vity was the ini(al rhythm in the majority of cases. CA associated with increased odds of hospital death (OR 14.8; 95% CI: ). CA more common w pre intuba(on hypotension (12% vs 3%; p<0.002). Pre RSI shock index (SI) and weight were independently associated with CA. CONCLUSIONS: In this series, 1 in 25 emergency intuba(ons was associated with the complica(on of CA.

20 Mean Apnea Time 14 minutes No desaturation <90% Opti-Flow 70 lpm

21 4 Requirements of Apneic Diffusion Oxygenation - Open alveoli (no diffusion if collapsed or fluid filled) POSITIONING - Oxygen gradient allowing diffusion from alveolus into plasma (leave O2 on ) - Red cells to bind oxygen to hemoglobin - Forward blood flow, so RBCs reach alveolus 4 binding sites 92 A- 94 A Binding of one O2 molecule changes shape of molecule for more binding

22 Pre-oxygenation: How it works Optimizing preoxygenation in adults Issam Tanoubi, et al. Can J Anesth/J Can Anesth (2009) 56: Oxygen reserves in a normal healthy adult when breathing room air (left), after breathing 100% oxygen (right), at onset of apnea, and when reaching an oxygen saturation (SpO2) of 90%. In this example, a subject with an oxygen consumption of 250 ml per min could sustain a period of apnea of 228/250 =0.9 min after breathing air and 2267/250 = 9 min after breathing oxygen Oxygen Reserves (ml) Lungs Hemoglobin Plasma Air SpO2 = 90% Oxygen SpO2 = 90%

23 Apneic Oxygenation in Man Frumin MJ, Epstein RM, Cohen G. Anesthesiology, Nov-Dec 1959, pp minutes without any ventilation Saturation O2 98%-100% Gas absorption CONTINUES without ventilation

24 Pharyngeal Insufflation of Oxygen Prevents Arterial Desaturation During Apnea Teller LE, et al. Anesthesiology 1988; 69: n=20, nasal airway s/p induction (36 Fr) 8 Fr Catheter inserted just beyond nasal trumpet, 3 liters per minute Sux, sedation, apnea until pulse ox 92% or, 10 minutes had elapsed Each patient served as their own control (with and w/o 3 lpm)

25 Nasopharyngeal oxygen insufflation following pre-oxygenation using the four deep breath technique. Taha SK, et al., Anaesthesia, 2006, 61, pages Preoxygenation 4 deep breath technique within 30 s, 30 ASA I or II patients - Study group (n = 15), pre-oxygenation and insufflation O2 5 liter per min via a nasopharyngeal catheter commenced at the onset of apnoea. - In the control group, pre-oxygenation was not followed by nasopharyngeal oxygen insufflation (n = 15). - In the control group, SpO2 fell to 95% within a mean (SD) apnoea time of 3.65 (1.15) min, - in the study group, SpO2 was maintained in all patients at 100% throughout the 6 min of apnoea - Nasopharyngeal oxygen insufflation following pre-oxygenation using the four deep breath technique can delay the onset of haemoglobin desaturation for a significant period of time during the subsequent apnoea.
