Cannulacricothyroidotomy Equipment
Jet oxygenation You are trying to achieve 2 things with jet oxygenation in the CICO scenario: • Provide oxygen • Prevent/improve airway and alveolar collapse
Jet oxygenation Providing oxygen The ManujetTM Set at 1.0 bar (i.e., Infant setting, in the Yellow Zone) delivers inspiratory flow of approx250 mls/second Rapid - O2oxygen cricothyroidotomy insufflation device (nee Leroy) Connected to piped O2 at 15L/min, delivers inspiratory flow of approx 250 mls/second
Jet oxygenation in a 70kg male Prevent/improve airway and alveolar collapse Initial breath 4 seconds duration=approx 1000mL • If there is no response or improvement in SpO2after 30 seconds, a second jet of 2.0 seconds should be administered. • Whilst applying the first jet, signs of flow must be sought by checking the chest for movement, and listening for flow.
Jet oxygenation in a 70kg male Prevent/improve airway and alveolar collapse Subsequent breaths • Do not jet again until the SpO2 have dropped by 5% from the maximum achieved with the initial jet. • Subsequent jets should be of 2 seconds duration (Approx 500 mls)
Jet oxygenation IF jetting with the manujet, and there are no signs of expiratory flow THEN disconnect the manujet to allow some expiration through the cannula (taking care to not inadvertently remove the cannula). This is to ensure hyperinflation causing reduced venous return does not occur. The Leroy and ENK allow expiration through the cannula and do not require disconnection.
Jet oxygenation IF there is no saturation reading for whatever reason THEN it is safe to insufflate 500 mls every 30 seconds if using a 14g cannnula and Rapid - O2 (Leroy) / ENK (Or disconnected Manujet) even in complete upper airway obstruction.
Jet oxygenation • After connecting the cannula to the jet oxygenation device, never let go of the cannula. • Only jet oxygenate whilst watching the chest rise and fall • The rate-limiting step for the frequency of safe jet oxygenation is the patency of the expiratory pathway.

CICO infraglottic rescue Key points for success • CICO is recognised • CICO is declared • A plan is activated • Equipment is immediately available • People know their roles
