Elderly pt with supraglottic cancer presents with ⬆️ difficulty breathing. Biphasic stridor & no subglottic extension on CT. Minimal accessory muscle use. Can speak sentences. Fiberoptic exam below. How would you handle this patients airway? #medtwitter #airway Tim Cook

Yes, bougies do increase intubation first pass success…with both DL & VL Having a device specifically designed to facilitate passage of the bougie further increases intubation FPS. Thats the magic! bmcanesthesiol.biomedcentral.com/counter/pdf/10… #airway #medtwitter

1. Yes, this pt had an awake tracheostomy as we were in hospital I was waiting for other vocal airway experts to offer their opinions but they are strangely silent For everyone else, this is the issue with airway - there’s no one solution & folks need options that work

Justin Morgenstern A great review! I’m surprised by the ‘presence of an ENT surgeon’ when making recommendations regarding what to do! Peds airway scares everyone but #ENT has more options which we would like others to know about & use Our bebe Vie Peds laryngoscope is one of them - way easier

Losing track of time! A lot of fuss is made regarding time to intubation but in this study, #EMS underestimated the time Did it make any difference? Is it like surgeons estimating blood loss? escholarship.org/uc/item/3tp314… #airway #paramedic #intubation #Emergency

Nose Coloured Glasses - Stavros Prineas PedsAnesthesia.Net 😷 @ben_cloyd Tim Cook Note that there is no monitor attached to the spork. Will people know how to use it without video? How will they know if they get the spork into their mouths without confirmation from their buddies looking at the screen? The spork is old school DL & it works!😉

Repeat after me. A habitable planet is more important than the profits of a few fossil fuel companies. Pass it on. #ActOnClimate

𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘢 Nicholas Chrimes When we came out with our devices we were lambasted for not showing evidence despite the technique being used for decades. Subsequently, EBM showed merit incl in RCTs. I’m surprised that ‘feelings’ can now be used to counter an RCT. Interesting times!😳

This is the response that I got for asking if the Airway Triage app is duly registered with the FDA (since apps that perform functions such as diagnosing conditions and recommending treatments require FDA clearance....)... Hans Huitink Airway Triage App US FDA MedWatch U.S. FDA

If VL is much easier to use, why is it that #UK #paramedics generally are not allowed to intubate? FYI: the UK uses special airway teams that race towards the victim(s) (if their services are known to be needed) i.e. separately to hopefully save them. Tim Cook

Dr Aidan Baron Tim Cook The fear of intubation failure over the high chance of success with modern equipment including VL tells me that folks don’t trust paramedics to save their patients. Thats why many are not allowed to use RSI…which ironically makes intubation harder This is a training issue.

Dr Aidan Baron Tim Cook This is a tough pill to swallow for many Intubation is hard bc the equipment used is not easy to learn or use That’s why there are so many airway courses. Unfortunately, many teach you the same old stuff over & over Innovative courses offer alternative solutions Go to those.

First day of Trauma Bootcamp Was a wonderful time More sim based training With Trauma Teams from all around E2 Al Ahsa Health Cluster Today will be a full day We got everyone And.. Nilesh Vasan I am holding the VieScope.. Great opportunity to practice Airway Management

Really like this ad, since it’s a reminder that even the biggest corporations can’t overlook the details. With dozens of people in their marketing department, you’d expect better attention to accuracy. Mario Trudeau
