A fire company is on scene providing high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and has defibrillated twice with an automated external defibrillator (AED). They plan to use a supraglottic airway as their initial airway strategy during the arrest, but they wonder if either of these two devices is superior.

It was a secondary analysis of an observational study which showed an association between decreased favourable neurologic outcomes in the IO group compared to the IV group. This is because of the ease of finding anatomic landmarks and their location away from other procedures like defibrillation, CPR, and airway management.

In studies including patients with trauma or Glasgow Coma Scale less than 8, intubation without sedation led to poorer neurological outcomes. This is referred to as CPR I nduced C onsciousness ( CPRIC ). Key take-home points While Ben’s case is tragic, we can learn important points about airway management.

His primary interests are resuscitation, prehospital critical care, airway management, and point-of-care ultrasound. Bystander CPR is initiated prior to EMS arrival. More advanced skills such as airway management, vascular access, and cardiac medications are being de-emphasized.

Results of this study showed that the use of low-dose insulin infusion led to similar clinical outcomes and fewer adverse events compared to the standard-dose insulin infusion. Also, the study was conducted in a centre where clinicians commonly use a bougie for airway management. Why does it matter? O’Connell et al.
