Q

RSI is not indicated for

A

comatose or cardiac arrest pts

17
Q

RSI - what do we do beforehand

A

preoxygenate, we don’t hyperventilate

18
Q

ET intubation procedure - before intubation

3

A
  1. preoxygenate using BVM with 100% O2 for 3-5 mins
  2. limit each intubation attempt to <30 s
  3. ventilate pt between successive attempts using BVM with 100% O2
19
Q

-auscultate
-observe
-obtain
-secure
-obtain
A
  1. inflate cuff and confirm placement of ET tube while manually ventilating pt with 100% O2
  2. end-tidal CO2 detector is place between BVM and ET tube - measures exhaled CO2 from lungs
  3. auscultate lung bases and apices for bilateral breath sounds
  4. observe for symmetric chest wall movements
  5. obtain chest x ray
  6. secure ETT and connect to mechanical ventilator
  7. obtain ABGs and continuously monitor pulse ox
20
Q

ET intuabtion - what should to tube typically fall on adults

A

3-5 cm above carina

21
Q

increase Vt and RR will do what

A

drop CO2

22
Q

what to parameters, if increased will drop CO2

A

Vt

RR

23
Q

decrease the Vt and RR will do what

A

help bring CO2 back up if it’s low

24
Q

what to parameters will help bring CO2 back up if it’s low and you decrease these

A

Vt and RR
