Today is the third anniversary of the EM Basic podcast. To celebrate this milestone, this is a screencast titled "Airway Update". I first prepared this lecture about two years ago for a conference but the topics are still relevant today. This will be most useful for medical students and EM interns who may not have been exposed to these airway topics. This screencast will help catch you up on what we have been talking about over the last two years on social media and FOAMed. We'll review apenic oxygenation, delayed sequence intubation, how to effectively use ketamine in your practice, awake cricothyrotomy, and more.

0:00.0 | Hey everybody. This is Steve Carroll and you're listening to the EM Basic Podcast. Today we're going to |
0:05.1 | be doing something completely different. Today is the first ever screencast on the EM Basic Podcast. |
0:10.9 | This isn't a presentation that I've titled Airway Update. Now as a background, I actually prepared |
0:16.4 | this about two years ago for a conference that unfortunately was canceled due to lack of funding. |
0:21.6 | But I've kept this around because I think that it displays some of the very basics of airway. |
0:28.6 | And while this is not cutting edge stuff, this is stuff that we've been talking about for a few years. |
0:32.6 | If you're a medical student or an intern just starting an emergency medicine or any other specialty, |
0:38.5 | then this is a really great review of kind of what we've been talking about for the past few years |
0:43.0 | in the airway and foam community. |
0:45.8 | So I have a few other titles for this presentation besides Airway Update. |
0:51.1 | My other title is The Best of the Airwayway literature, the web, and social media, |
0:55.8 | beyond 20 of Atominate, and 100 of Sucks, because we'll be going a little beyond the basics here. |
1:01.0 | And finally, ketamine, the solution to all your airway problems. So as always, I always have to |
1:05.9 | mention that this podcast is a percent of the views of your opinions of Department of Defense, |
1:09.0 | the U.S. Army, or the Fort Hood Post Command. |
1:17.3 | So let's talk about a few cases here. These will kind of help frame our discussion of what we're going to be talking about a little later. |
1:24.8 | So first of all, that 70-year-old female who's got pneumonia and severe sepsis, her oxygen saturation is 80%. How are you going to prevent her from desaturating when you do an RSI? |
1:29.1 | The 60-year-old male was COPD who's combative. How are you going to properly pre-actionate |
1:33.8 | this patient to ensure he doesn't have a Brady's systolic arrest when you do his RSI? |
1:39.1 | A 20-year-old male trauma patient with failed airway. How are you going to be able to get that |
1:43.3 | surgical airway when you need it? The 50-year-old male with upper airway obstruction from a foreign body. |
1:49.5 | What are there other options that we can do besides RSI to help get this person in an airway? |
