10 Emergent Airway Management Christopher Turner

11 Overview Evaluation of the airway Indications for definitive airway Key airway decision-making questions Non-invasive techniques Invasive techniques Realities of a surgical airway

12 Evaluation of Airway First step in ATLS primary survey In the awake nonintubated patient, ask their name Stridor or hoarseness may indicate a problem Look, listen and feel Pulse oximetery Airway compromise may manifest as agitation, confusion and combativeness

13 Indications for Definitive Airway Airway obstruction Hypoventilation Persistent hypoxemia despite supplemental O2 GCS 8 Severe hemorrhagic shock Cardiac arrest

14 Key Airway Decision-Making Questions 1. Does the patient need to be intubated 2. How rapidly does the patient need to be intubated 3. Will the intubation be difficult 4. What is the chosen method to control the airway 5. What are the back-up plans

15 Airway Management Non-Invasive Techniques

16 Chin Lift

17 Jaw Thrust

23 Invasive Techniques Endotracheal Intubation

24 Endotracheal Intubation Equipment Bag valve mask Laryngoscope Endotracheal tube Stylet Functioning suction End tidal CO2 detector Stethoscope

25 Endotracheal Intubation Rapid Sequence Intubation 1. Prepare equipment and supplies 2. Preoxygenate 3. Premedicate (etomidate) 4. Cricoid pressure 5. Paralyze (succinylcholine) 6. Intubate 7. Confirm tube by auscultation and capnography 8. Secure airway 9. Chest XR

26 Endotracheal Intubation Medications Etomidate (anesthetic and amnestic) 0.3mg/kg IV 20mg dose for 70kg patient 2mg/mL 10mL volume Succinylcholine (paralytic) 1.5mg/kg IV 100mg dose for 70kg patient 20mg/mL 5mL volume

51 Lessons for Surgeons in the Final Moments of Air France Flight 447 World Journal of Surgery June 2013, Vol 37(6): Method Review of crash reports of Flight 447 which lost speed after formation of ice prevented air from entering flight speed indicators during a storm Following a subsequent stall, the aircraft fell at a rate of 10,000 feet/min until it crashed into the Atlantic killing 228 passengers and crew

52 Lessons for Surgeons in the Final Moments of Air France Flight 447 World Journal of Surgery June 2013, Vol 37(6): Results There were errors in decision making, reasoning, communication, and teamwork A reliance on autopilot meant that the pilots were unfamiliar with high-altitude flying when the autopilot is disengaged The absence of the senior pilot in the critical final minutes slowed error recognition and recovery

53 Lessons for Surgeons in the Final Moments of Air France Flight 447 World Journal of Surgery June 2013, Vol 37(6): Conclusions Both simulation-based and non-simulation-based training should include surprise and startle events beyond the scenarios trainees might expect In the face of increasing reliance on modern technology, surgeons should ensure that they would be able to perform procedures in the absence of such technologies

54 Summary Do not hesitate to establish definitive airway Noninvasive methods Chin lift or jaw thrust Nasal or oral airways Bag valve mask Emergent cricothryoidotomy #10 blade, 6mm ETT, glove and mask Vertical incision

55 Question #1 What number blade is this?

56 Question #2 You are about to perform rapid sequence intubation. You ask the nurse to get what medications at what doses?

57 Question #3 At the oral boards, you are asked to describe the surgical steps of an emergency cricothyroidotomy. What do you say?
