| Intubation Step:1 | Position Patient Head in sniffing position slight hyperextension
🗑
|
||||
| Intubation Step:2 | Adequately hyperoxygenate (resuscitation bag with 100% for 2 minutes
🗑
|
||||
| Intubation Step:3 | Hold laryngoscope in left hand
ET Tube in right hand
🗑
|
||||
| Intubation Step:4 | Insert blade down the right side of the mouth, sweep tongue to the left.
🗑
|
||||
| Intubation Step:5 | Advance blade, lift epiglottis visualize vocalcords,
(curve blade tip) = vallecula
(straight blade tip) = epiglottis
have suction available
🗑
|
||||
| Intubation Step:6 | Cricord Pressure = (Selleck Maneuver)
is indicated if the larynx is in an anterior location
🗑
|
||||
| Intubation Step:7 | Insert tube, inflate cuff, assess tube position, ventilate, and oxygenate
🗑
|
||||
| Minimal Occluding Volume (MOV) | technique used to inflate cuff = 20-25 mmHg/25-30 cmH20
listen for air leak as cuff is inflated during positive pressure ventilation: STOP inflating at minimum volume necessary to eliminate air leak via trach or ET Tube
🗑
|
||||
| Minimal Leak Technique (MLT) | slowly inject air into the cuff during positive pressure inspiration until leak STOPS;
A small amount of air is removed to allow a slight leak during peak inspiration.
Remove the small amount to PREVENT aspiration
🗑
|
||||
| Assessment Of Tube Position Notice Sequence | 1. Inspection
(look for bilateral chest expansion during inspiration)
2. Auscultation
(breath sounds should be heard bilateral)
3. Capnography
(CO2 Detector)
4. Chest X-ray
( tip of tube 2cm or 1 in ABOVE carina or at aortic knob/notch
🗑
|
||||
| Tube Maintenance Suctioning | Maintain patency
🗑
|
||||
| Tube Maintenance Humidification | * Prevent dehydration of tissue (100% Humidity @ 37.C)
* Best way to prevent obstruction
🗑
|
||||
| Tube Maintenance Cuff Pressure | *Minimal leak
*Minimal occluding volume
*Use high volume/low pressure cuff =to or< 20mmHg)
🗑
