Anatomy: Larynx

Narrowest point = cricoid cartilage

Physiology

�Tongue - Posterior Displacement

�Tongue – Difficult to Control

�Epiglottis – Difficult to Control

�Vocal Cords – Difficult Intubation

�Tube size relative to Cricoid Diameter

�Small Airway Edema causes High Resistance

Two Steps Before…

1. Ensure the Safety of Rescuer and Victim( the scene, gloves, barrier devices)

“Partial” CPR: Is Something Better than Nothing?

2. Stimulate and Check Responsiveness

Ventilation withOxygen

� Mouth-to-Mouth ventilation provides only 17% O2

� Indicated to all seriously ill or injured patients even if pCO2 is high

� If Possible – humidify Oxygen

� Use of reduced FiO2 is uncommon

I.S.

Devices to Monitor Respiratory Function

�Pulse Oxymetry

�End-Tidal CO2

�Arterial Blood Gas Analysis

Laryngeal Mask

Contraindicated if gag-reflex is intact

Higher success rate

Does NOT protect from aspiration

Difficult to maintain during transport

Intubation

Intubation: Indications

�Failure to oxygenate

�Failure to remove CO2

�Increased WOB

�Neuromuscular weakness

�CNS failure

�Cardiovascular failure
