Study Notes
Bag Valve Mask Ventilation
- Allows higher concentrations of oxygen to be delivered than a non-rebreathe mask
- Increases the potential for cross infection compared to mouth-to-mouth ventilation
- Does not inflate the stomach
- Can be attached to an I-Gel supraglottic airway
- Recommended to be used with a one-handed technique
Oropharyngeal Airways
- Should ideally be inserted using the inverted technique
- Not suitable for patients with a high GCS (e.g. 12)
Nasopharyngeal Airways
- Relatively contraindicated in basal skull fractures
Airway Management
- Formal assessment of the airway requires a “Look, Listen and Feel” technique
- Patients with a low GCS (e.g. 6) are less likely to protect their own airway
- Airway maneuvers ideally lift the tongue forward, relieving obstruction
- With Manual In-Line Stabilization (MILS) in place, an inferior approach to the Jaw Thrust may be easier
