Study Notes
- The hyoid is approximately 1-2 fingerlengths superior to the cricoid cartilage.
- Atropine reduces oral secretions from etomidate administration.
- A patient with airway and chest burns requires emergent intubation after being rescued from a house fire.
- A patient presenting with singed nasal hairs and carbonaceous sputum after exiting a house that was on fire, needs emergent intubation.
- During intubation, the patient is placed in the modified sniffing position.
- An analgesic/sedative-hypnotic like a Benzodiazepine and Isotonic crystalloid are used.
- Immediate intubation and supraglottic airway are the response/actions taken.
- Apneic oxygenation, not recent studies assist in elimination.
- High flow from a nasal cannula adds PEEP to open alveoli.
- Ketamine use is a risk of emesis.
- Catecholamine release may be precipitous.
- ETCO2 values, Head positioning, and Post-SGA placement are the actions that require chest x-ray confirmation.
- A patient with a history of sleep apnea may precipitously drop the cerebral perfusion pressure.
