Q

compare a cricothyroidotomy and traceoctomy

A

both create an opening for airflow through through the neck cricothyroidotomy: safer by avoiding blood vessels and nerves, is more commonly performed in emergency situations tracheoctomy: is performed lower where blood supply and nerves are at a greater risk, performed in hospitals for longer term
