Objectives • Identify setting • Regonize AWO • Manage airway • Define definitive airway
Coma Aspiration Facial trauma Neck trauma Picture of bomb to face Airway obstruction
Airway Obstruction Regonition • Listen
Adequate Breathing • Provide oxygen • Subtle deterioration of breathing • Caution! • Coma • SCI • Chest trauma
Look Listen Inadequate Breathing
Feel Adjuncts Inadequate Breathing
Adequate oxygenation • Requires • Oxygen • Definitive airway • Ventilation • Caution • Protect C-spine
Airway Maintenance • Chin lift • Jaw thrust • Oral airway • Nasal airway
Need for Airway Coma Maxillofacial injury Aspiration Airway injury Need for Breathing Apnea Hypoxia Hypercapnia Brain injury Definitive Airway Definitive aw = cuffed tube in trachea
Definitive Airway • Orotracheal • Nasotracheal • Surgical airway
Right Bronchial intubation • Xray of right bronchial intubation
RSI • Be prepared for surgical airway • Requires skill and training • Urgency must justify risk
Surgical Airway • Indications • Inability to intubate the trachea • Maxillofacial trauma • Neck injury • Methods • Needle • Surgical
Defnintive Airway:Immediate need:Apneic patient • Protect c spin • Oxgyenate ventilate • Orotracheal intubation (No nasotracheal intubation b/c of apnea) • If unable to intubate surgical airway
Defnintive Airway:Immediate need:Breathing patient • Protect c spine • Oxgyenate ventilate • Oro or nasotracheal intubation, maintain c-spine position • If unable to intubate surgical airway
Defnintive Airway:Immediate need:Maxillofacial trauma • Protect c spine • Oxgyenate and ventilate as needed • If unable to intubate surgical airway
Oxygenate and Ventilate • Goal = achieve maximal cellular oxygen • O2 at 10-12 L/min • Tight fitting mask with resevoir • Ventilate • Avoid prolonged intubation attempts
Pulsoximeter Measures oxygenated hemoglobin Utility Difficult intubation Transport Pa02 vs sat 90 = 100% 60 = 90% 30 – 60% Monitor Oxygenation
Summary • Suspect airway compromise • Protect C-spine • Open airway and ventilate • If in doubt definitive airway • Adequate oxygen delivery
