The Nurse Anesthesia Team gets together on this episode to talk all things cricothyrotomy in preparation for the AANA Annual Congress in Nashville! Jeremy, Sass, and Mark will be hosting and running the Advanced Airway Skills Workshop at the Annual Congress. Part of that workshop includes practicing several cricothyrotomy techniques.
In this episode, they discuss the three cricothyrotomy techniques that include: (1) percutaneous needle cricothyrotomy; (2) percutaneous wire-guided cricothyrotomy; & (3) the surgical bougie-assisted cricothyrotomy. Even though this is a rare procedure, it is absolutely essential to have an understanding of these techniques and to regularly practice them so that you’ll be ready if you’re ever in an emergency airway situation where you cannot intubate and cannot ventilate/cannot oxygenate.
