Still listening to the Backstreet Boys on the way to work? Clearly urgent intervention is required.
Here are some excellent podcasts, with blog pages including discussion, videos, and references:
Needle versus knife I – discussion between Minh Le Cong (prehospitalmed.com) and Scott Weingart (emcrit.org) about interventions for can’t intubate/can’t ventilate
“One of the best things Minh expressed is the need to say OUT LOUD: “This is a can’t intubate/can’t oxygenate situation.” Saying it out loud lets everyone in the room know, there will be no more screwing around with attempts at direct laryngoscopy.”
