Airway Management

Discussion of Airway Managment devices

In this lesson we are taking a look at the various different devices that we use for airway management. Sometimes our patients are having issues breathing or even stopped completely and we need to intervene quickly with interventions including the use of devices such as the oropharyngeal airway, nasopharyngeal airway, laryngeal mask airway, endotracheal tube, or tracheostomy tube. The devices allow either temporary or permanent airway management to ensure our patients maintain an adequate airway to allow for breathing, ventilation and oxygenation.

Thanks Eddie! I’m sure you’re going to touch on it, but I know I would have loved some ETT as well Trach management when I was brand new in the ICU. Scariest thing ever was suctioning any pt, but especially a trached pt 😅😂

[johnresino]

While working in prehospital, and no the hospital icu.i feel that the dependence on the RT is very scary. Both from the hospitals policy and the nurses on he floor. All of these airways less the ET tube should be regularly checked off by hospital for nurses or rapid response teams. If a emt can use them so should you. And I don't mean this to be degrading. But covid had shown us that the need for multiple rapid response teams that a competent is highly important. Master the basics. Great video.

[Jumpboy]

From my pre-hospital experience we almost always go laryngeal mask (i-gel) or ET tube.

The esophageal tracheal airway has been deemed ineffective (at least in pre hospital) for quite a while.

[kpf]

Well done. Going into my first PALS class as an instructor and this is a really good review.

[olaebrhem]

Thank you thank you thank you 🥹😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ GOD bless you 🙏🤲🏻💜

[bestmulti-channel]

Love the simplicity of how you described it but you forgot the naso-tracheal tube

[RUAGoodNurse]

Hi There! Thank you for your excellent work: sorry I am posting this on one of your older videos and I hope you read this: what is the difference between joining (Paid membership) through patreon versus youtube? Maybe since this video is so old you might have current updated information
