Episode 27: Airway Adventures Volume I

Episode SummaryIn this episode of the nurse anesthesia podcast, Jeremy dives into some Airway Management Adventures! He discusses three airway cases from the Emergency Department to the Operating Room. Each case illustrates critical decision-making under challenging circumstances where key actions by the CRNA are essential. The cases include information on preoxygenation with nasal cannula and a non-rebreather mask, RSI, successful first-pass intubation using video-laryngoscopy, cricothyrotomy, and awake intubation. Major themes discussed in this episode involve preparation with airway plans, checklist use, stress preparation, adaptability, team coordination, and continuous learning from both success and difficulty in airway management. Resources/information discussed in podcast·         Get your free The Nurse Anesthesia Crisis Checklists at www.thenurseanesthesia.com·         Sign up for our Crisis Management Video Series.
