10/29/2019
Go from cric-disaster-cursed to cric-educationally-versed. We will discuss a real interfacility HEMS transport case of a Can’t Intubate Can’t Oxygenate (CICO) patient requiring a surgical airway after an unrecognized false passage. This session will review the pertinent anatomy regarding the surgical airway, common and uncommon pitfalls, and techniques to overcome them by looking at the available literature on this topic. A discussion will examine what the future holds for this advanced procedure as the availability of ultrasound increases.
