Global Assessment Assess underlying need for airway control Duration of intubation Permanent support Temporary support Slide 3
Global Assessment Pathophysiology of the respiratory failure Hypoxic respiratory failure Hypercapnic respiratory failure Assessment Code status should be clarified prior to proceeding. Slide 4
Global Assessment Oxygenation Respiratory rate and use of accessory muscles Amount of supplemental oxygen Pulse oximeter or arterial blood gas Slide 5
Global Assessment Airway Anatomy Patency Airway device in place Slide 6
Oxygen Delivery Devices(In order of degree of support) Nasal Cannula Face tent Ventimask Nonrebreather mask Slide 7
Oxygen Delivery DevicesNoninvasive Positive Pressure CPAP is a continuous positive pressure BiPAP allows for an inspiratory and expiratory pressure to support and improve spontaneous ventilation Slide 8
Oxygen Delivery DevicesNoninvasive Positive Pressure Consider when to intubation Patient status Device considerations: Some devices allow respiratory rate to be set. Up to 10 L of oxygen can be delivered into the mask for 100% oxygen delivery. Nasal or oral (full face) mask can be used; less aspiration potential with nasal. Slide 9
Degree of Respiratory Distress Respiratory pattern Need for artificial airway Pulse oximetry Arterial blood gas Slide 10
Temporizing Measures Naloxone for narcotic overdose 40 mcg every minute up to 200 mcg 0.4 - 2 mg of naloxone is indicated in patients with respiratory arrest and history suggestive of narcotic overdose Caution in patients with history of narcotic dependence Naloxone drip can be titrated starting at half the bolus dose used to obtain an effect Slide 11
Temporizing Measures Flumazenil for benzodiazepine overdose Artificial airway for upper airway obstruction in patients with oversedation 100% oxygen and maintenance of spontaneous ventilation in patients with pneumothorax Slide 12
Oral/Nasal Airways Slide 13
Indications for Intubation Depressed mental status Head trauma patients with GCS 8 or less is an indication for intubation Drug overdose patients may require 24 - 48 hours airway control. Upper airway edema Inhalation injuries Ludwig’s angina Epiglottitis Slide 14
Underlying Lung Disease Chronic obstructive lung disease Pulmonary embolus Restrictive lung disease Slide 15

Neuromuscular Blockers Succinylcholine 1 - 2 mg/kg IV, 4 mg/kg IM Rocuronium 0.6 - 1.2 mg/kg Vecuronium 0.1 mg/kg Cisatricurium 0.2 mg/kg Slide 20
Rapid Sequence Intubation Preoxygenate for three to five minutes prior to induction Crycoid pressure should be applied from prior to induction until confirmation of appropriate placement. Succinylcholine 1 - 2 mg/kg Rocuronium 1.2 mg/kg Avoid mask ventilation after induction. Slide 21
Y BAG PEOPLE (Reference #6) Slide 22
Cricoid Pressure Cricoid is circumferential cartilage Pressure obstructs esophagus to prevent escape of gastric contents Maintains airway patency Koziol C, et al. AORN. 2000;72(6):1018-1030. Slide 23
Sniffing Position Align oral, pharyngeal, and laryngeal axes to bring epiglottis and vocal cords into view. Hirsch N, et al. Anesthesiology. 2000;93(5):1366. Slide 24
Mask Ventilation Mask ventilation crucial in patients who are difficult to intubate Slide 25
Laryngoscope Blades and Endotracheal Tubes Mac blade: End of blade should be placed in front of epiglottis in valecula ETT for Fastrach LMA Pediatric uncuffed ETT ETT for blind nasal Standard ETT Miller blade: End of blade should be under epiglottis Slide 26
Graded Views on Intubation Grade 1: Full glottis visible Grade 2: Only posterior commissure Grade 3: Only epiglottis Grade 4: No glottis structures are visible Yarnamoto K, et al. Anesthesiology. 1997;86(2):316. Slide 27
Confirmation of Placement Direct visualization Humidity fogging the endotracheal tube End tidal CO2 which is maintained after > 5 breaths Refill in 5 seconds Symmetrical chest wall movement Bilateral breath sounds Maintenance of oxygenation by pulse oximetry Absence of epigastric auscultation during ventilation Slide 28
Additional Considerations Additional personnel and an experienced provider as backup Suction available No a muscle relaxant if difficult mask ventilation is demonstrated or expected Awake intubation should be considered Slide 29

Alternative Methods Blind nasal intubation Eschmann stylet Fiber optic bronchoscopic intubation Laryngeal mask airway Light wand Retrograde intubation Surgical tracheostomy Combitube Slide 31
Eschman Stylet Use if Grade III view achieved Perform direct laryngoscopy Place Eschman where trachea is anticipated Feel tracheal rings against stiffness of stylet Thread 7.0 or 7.5 ETT over stylet with laryngoscope in place Slide 32
Fiberoptic Scope Fiberoptic Scope is used For bronchoscopy To thread an endotracheal tube into the trachea Via laryngeal mask airway in place Slide 33
The Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA) Slide 34
LMA Placement LMA Placement: Guide along the palate Position underneath the epiglottis, in front of the tracheal opening, with the tip in the esophagus FOB placement through LMA positions in front of trachea Martin S, et al. J Trauma Injury, Infection Crit Care. 1999;47(2):352-357. Slide 35
The FastrachTM Laryngeal Mask Airway Reinforced LMA allows for passage of ETT without visualization of trachea. 10% failure rate in experienced hands 20% failure rate in inexperienced Slide 36

Case Studies The following are case studies / review questions that can be used for review of this presentation Cases Studies Review Questions Skip All
Case Scenario #1 The patient is 70 kg with a 20-year history of diabetes. On exam, the patient has intercisor distance of 4 cm, thyromental distance is 8 cm, neck extension is 45 degrees, and mallampati score is 1. Your staff wants to use thiopental and pancuronium. Do you have any further questions for this patient or would you proceed with your staff? Slide 43
Case Scenario #1 - Answer A diabetic for 20 years needs assessment for stiff joint syndrome. You should have the patient demonstrate the prayer sign. If the patient is unable to oppose their fingers, you should not give pancuronium. You may want to proceed with an LMA and FOB at your disposal. If the patient has a history of gastroparesis, you may want to consider an awake FOB. Slide 44
Case Scenario #2 43-year-old patient with HIV, likely PCP pneumonia who had been prophylaxed with dapsone RR is 38, oxygen saturation is 90% on 100% NRB mask The patient is on his way to get a CT scan. Is it appropriate to proceed without intubation? Slide 45
Case Scenario #2 - Answer Dapsone will produce some degree of methemoglobinemia. Therefore, some degree of desaturation may not be overcome. The patient is in significant respiratory distress and will be confined in an area without easy access. Intubation should be considered as an extra measure of safety, especially as this patient is likely to get worse. Slide 46
Case Scenario #3 40-year-old, 182-kg man has a history of sleep apnea and systolic ejection fraction of 25%. He has a Strep pneumonia in his left lower lobe and progressive respiratory insufficiency. He extends his neck to 50 degrees and has a mallampati score of 2. Would you proceed with an awake FOB? Slide 47
Case Scenario #3 - Answer The patient’s airway anatomy is not suggestive of difficulty. However, with supine position, subcutaneous tissue may impair your ability to visualize or ventilate. Use of gravity, including a shoulder roll, extreme sniffing position, and reverse trendelenburg may be helpful with asleep DL. Prudent to have some accessory equipment, including an LMA and FOB, for back up Slide 48
