Summary
This document provides detailed information on airway management, encompassing both basic and advanced techniques. It covers various aspects, such as opening the airway, using different airway devices (oropharyngeal, nasopharyngeal), bag-mask ventilation, and more advanced procedures like endotracheal intubation and supraglottic devices. It also touches on pre-medication protocols for these procedures.

AIRWAY MANGEMENT DR/ Mohamed Hassan Basic Airway Management Opening Airway Oropharyngeal & Nasopharyngeal Airway Bag Mask Ventilation Basic Airway Management Opening the Airway Head tilt–chin lift Basic Airway Management Opening the Airway Triple airway maneuver Basic Airway Management Opening the Airway Modified Jaw Thrust in Trauma Basic Airway Management Oropharyngeal Airway Basic Airway Management Oropharyngeal Airway Basic Airway Management Sizing An Oropharyngeal Airway Basic Airway Management Oropharyngeal Airway Basic Airway Management Nasopharyngeal Airway Basic Airway Management Nasopharyngeal Airway Basic Airway Management Bag Mask Ventilation Crucial airway management skill. Takes practice to perform correctly. Gives time for well-planned approach to definitive airway management. 3 keys: 1.Patent airway 2.Good mask seal 3.Proper ventilation Basic Airway Management Bag Mask Ventilation Difficult Bag Mask Ventilation MOANS Mask seal: cant approximate mask Obesity: redundant tissues impede airflow Age >55: loss of elasticity tissues No teeth: mask doesn’t sit properly Stiff (lungs/body): need increased pressure Basic Airway Management Bag Mask Ventilation C&E Basic Airway Management Mouth-to-Mask Ventilation Basic Airway Management Mouth-to- Shield Ventilation Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Supraglottic Devices LMA Intubating LMA I-Gel Combitube Alternative Airway Fiberoptic Intubation Glidescopes Retrograde Intubation Blind Nasal Surgical Airway Tracheostomy Cricothyrotomy Jet Ventilation Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps & Confirmation RSI, BURP, Sellick’s maneuver Complications Failed intubation Common Mistakes Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps 7Ps: 1)Preparation (Patient, Equipment) 2)Pre-oxygenation 3)Positioning 4)Pretreatment 5)Paralysis 6)Placement 7)Post intubation management Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps 1)Preparation of the patient Cardiac monitoring IV access and patency ensured Briefly airway assessment (LEMON) Pre-oxygenation Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps 1)Preparation of the equipment Suction Oxygen Bag Valve Mask (BVM) device Airway adjuncts - appropriately sized oropharyngeal airways available – - appropriately sized LMA available Laryngoscope (appropriate blade, light source & spare handle) ETT – size, cuff checked, plus a size above and below Bougie Monitoring and EtCO2 ( mandatory ) Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps Direct Laryngoscopy Miller Macintosh Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps 1)Preparation of the equipment Tube Size Male: 8 + 0.5 ….

Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps Premedication Sedative-hypnotics: Sodium Thiopental & Propofol Benzodiazepines: Midazolam Opioids: Morphine, Fentanyl & Remifentanil Dissociative Anaesthesia: Ketamine Neuromuscular blocking drugs (NMBDs): Depolarizing: Succinylcholine Non Depolarizing: Pancuronium, atracurium & Cis-atracurium Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps Sniffing position. MILS in the neutral position if suspected C-spine injury Open mouth AND inspect oral cavity. Remove dentures or debris. Place laryngoscope with left hand into the right side of the patient’s mouth, sweeping the tongue to the left. Elevate the laryngoscope to lift the mandible without levering on the teeth. The end of the blade should rest in the epiglottic vallecula allowing direct visualization of the larynx. Advanced Airway Management Endotracheal Intubation Steps Suction the airway as required. Introduce bougie gently through the cords – tracheal clicks and hold-up should be appreciable. Advance the endotracheal tube over the bougie until the cuff is seen to pass through the cords. Approximate ETT length at lips for women is 20 – 21 and men 22 – 24 centimeters. Remove bougie. Inflate cuff. Connect BVM and commence ventilation. Confirm tube placement.

The failed airway is something one experiences. Definition of Difficult Airway: A clinical situation in which conventionally trained anesthesiologists experiences difficulty with mask ventilation, tracheal intubation or both Can’t intubate Can’t Ventilate (CICV) is the most dangerous CVCI syndrome can occur unexpectedly to even most expert Anesthesiologists and will occur in the career of every anesthesiologist Difficult Endotracheal Intubation : “Using conventional laryngoscopy, it requires more than three attempts or more than 10 min. for proper positioning of endotracheal tube” Remember : LEMON Difficult Mask Ventilation : : “The clinical situation where using 100% oxygen and bag/valve/mask ventilation, an unassisted anaesthesiologist is unable to maintain oxygen saturation greater than 90% in a person who was capable of doing so before intervention” Remember : MOANS
