That was great! Thanks! Dr. Basu ( India)
Very good explanation and the demonstration on the model was very helpful in understanding.
I understand the potential problems, and what not to do. However, I was waiting to hear what TO do?
place the tip into the lumen of the ETT Tube and not the eye. This will use the diameter of the Bougie x 2 inside the lumen of the tube causing the plastic on plastic as a keeper. You can keep your ETT in a tighter loop therefore using more Bougie length
Important question.
Can you always cannulate with this technique???
It’s a problem I agree. Honestly, I see pros and cons between the D-grip, Shaka Grip, and naked bougie methods. Depends on the circumstances and provider comfort
