      I disagree, this male is a Moron and the disparaging remark I am making is because untrained professionals or lay People will watch this and think this is a party trick. Like eating the Tide Pods, or swallowing bleach, or playing the Assassin Game with water guns. We have enough people coming into the ER, OR, and Trauma center trying to practice medicine without being properly Trained and could kill themselves. When this idiot decided to inhale the soap liquid into the Endotracheal Tube he could have aspirated and Died!; That is an inaccurate and precarious method of exposing people to unnecessary RISKY Practices! He needs to be Sanctioned by the AMA and Licence Permanently Removed!;End of Story. Good Riddance!

    I have a patient with severe ankylosing spondylitis, unable to move his neck and back, scheduled for umbilical hernia surgery.
    We will try to perform an awake intubation.
    Your video and insight for the procedure is priceless

    Hey everyone, this is Ian here! I just wanted to elaborate on a few things that I didn't mention in the video.
    1. Administering IV glycopyrrolate or another antimuscarinic is important not only for improving your view on the fiberoptic scope, but also for increasing the efficacy of your topicalization by drying the laryngopharyngeal mucosa.
    2. Although I implied it, I should explicitly state that when performing a transtracheal block, your target injection site is through the cricothyroid membrane. You want to aspirate as you advance the needle and STOP advancing once you aspirate air in order to avoid lacerating the posterior tracheal mucosa. Also, it is helpful to have patients at least partially expire before injecting and then subsequently take a deep inspiration to trigger a robust cough, which will help aerosolize the local onto the inferior aspect of the vocal cords. A secondary benefit of performing transtracheal blocks is that they offer you some experience locating and entering the cricothyroid membrane, which may be a life-saving skill if you ever need to perform a cricothyrotomy in can't intubate/can't ventilate scenario.

    Thanks for doing this. I'm an anesthesiologist who didn't do transtracheal blocks in residency, but I took a job at a cancer hospital and I've had to do them a couple times this year and found they work great. I am starting to gain trust in my awake fiber optic technique but not sure if I will even believe in it enough to try it on myself 😂. Thanks again for a great video

    • @xChickenoftheSeax
      @xChickenoftheSeax 2 роки тому +5

      Most definitely! I am glad you enjoyed the video and appreciate you sharing your experiences. Since leaving residency, I have been very surprised that so few of my colleagues got the opportunity to practice airway blocks or topical-only awake intubations during training! Granted, I have only ever done transtracheal blocks, but I think they are incredibly useful, especially if you need to rapidly secure an abysmal airway, as you have undoubtedly experienced. I also think it's helpful to show trainees just how well airway topicalization/blocks can work if you take just a little bit of time. Finally, I think it can help patient buy-in if you let them know that you've done it to yourself to no ill effect 😁.

    You should have connected yourself to the ventilator, and given us an ETCO2. You know. Connect to the ventilator, go on Volume control, and then stay after a few minutes, discontinue mechanical ventilation, and propperly extubate yourself.

    Does not look fun, but no where even close to as bad as the doctor that preformed his own IO. That is like an IV but with a 16ga needle and a cordless drill into the bone. I had it done twice a few minutes a part just below my knee. You can not mentally prepare for that kind of pain. Then the guy drills hole one and says...." You are going to hate me.. Dry hole we need to do it again." But I thought that was going to be the worst of it as I screamed like a little baby, but it turned out the pushing of the meds into it was so much more painful than even the drill. I had meds pushed into it for 6 hours wide awake. Just an IV but into a bone instead of a vein. Never never ever again while I am a wake!!!
