Making awake tracheal intubation a real option for managing the anticipated difficult airway in patient’s requiring emergency airway management

Guidelines for airway management in patients with an anticipated difficult airway universally include the option of performing an ‘awake’ tracheal intubation (ATI). Performing a rapid sequence intubation (RSI) using video laryngoscopy has become a standard approach to facilitate tracheal intubation for airway management in emergencies, whereas experience in performing ATI is limited. Awake tracheal intubation however remains a necessary alternative to RSI in not only anticipated anatomically difficult airway cases, but also for selected physiologically compromised apnea intolerant patients. This program provides attendees with with an approach and the skills necessary to safely perform ATI when indicated. Instructors from Emergency Medicine and Anesthesiology along with specially prepared clinical cadavers provide an unparalleled unique high fidelity skills learning experience.

Course Highlights

• This program uses specially prepared Clinical Cadavers

• 5:1 learner-to-instructor with pragmatic, experienced clinical educators from emergency medicine anesthesiology.

• Review decision-making/ indications for awake tracheal intubation (ATI) for management of anatomically and physiologically difficult airway cases.

• Practice topicalization techniques for ATI

• Repetitive practice in oral and nasal flexible endoscopic intubation

• Video laryngoscopy–assisted ATI training.

• Learn-do-repeat rapid cycle deliberate practice to consolidate learning and maximize exposures.

• Group discussions opportunities to review cases and address challenges clinician’s may encounter in their unique work environment.

Objectives

• Based on airway evaluation, indicate when ATI is the safest option for securing the airway.

• Identify the components of awake tracheal intubation (ATI).

• Communicate with the team and patient in preparation for and during ATI.

• Perform effective topical airway anesthesia to facilitate well-tolerated ATI.

• Use flexible endoscopy and video laryngoscopy to facilitate tracheal intubation in clinical cadavers.

• Recognize when to enhance the standard airway evaluation with awake internal airway assessment and use flexible endoscopy or video laryngoscopy for the purpose.

• Identify and manage difficulties that may arise during ATI.

A Hands-on, Advanced Airway Learning Experience Using Clinical Cadavers

A procedure focused program offering unique repetitive practice opportunities that reinforce core and advanced airway skills using a variety of currently available and increasingly accessible airway devices. Attendees will learn not only from experienced airway educators that understand the varied practice environments clinician’s face but also from the greatest teachers of all, specially prepared clinical cadavers producing unparalleled high fidelity skills learning opportunities.

Course Highlights

• This program uses specially prepared Clinical Cadavers

• 5:1 learner-to-instructor with pragmatic, experienced clinical educators from emergency medicine anesthesiology.

• Visualize the lung respond to ventilation strategies in real time, requiring learners to adjust technique based on dynamic anatomical feedback.

• Visualize dynamic and variable anatomy to reinforce optimized tracheal intubation by video laryngoscopy (VL) with a variety of commonly available Macintosh and Hyperangulated VL blades.

• Learn advanced skills such as managing the contaminated airway (SALAD), use a flexible endoscope for advanced airway assessment (nasal endoscopy and confirming tracheal tube location.

• Practice and perform airway rescue techniques using a supraglottic airway and performing a bougie assisted cricothyrotomy.

Objectives

• Formulate a plan for safely securing a patient’s airway, based on an appraisal and application of current published literature.

• Maintain patient oxygenation throughout the airway management sequence, using effective pre-oxygenation, face mask ventilation and apneic oxygenation techniques.

• Recognize upper airway anatomic landmarks during video laryngoscopy and interact with the exposed anatomy to maximize successful tracheal intubation.

• Recognize when difficulty is occurring with airway management and respond with a structured approach, to include supraglottic airway placement and/or use of a combination of more than one device to facilitate tracheal intubation.

• Distinguish between an unsuccessful and a successful attempt at patient ventilation (e.g., esophageal intubation).

• Recognize a “cannot ventilate, cannot oxygenate” situation and perform an emergency cricothyrotomy.

• Advocate for the equipment and medications required to facilitate standard-of-care airway management in their home workplace.
