NO and PGI inhaled works great for dilating vessels in the ventilated parts of lungs to improve shunting. But not always avaliable #YACC

ECMO will be ICU’s next ‘dialysis machine’: commonly used to oxygenate pt while you let sick lungs rest – @RogerRdharris #YACC — Thomas D (@thomas1973) June 17, 2015
Proning is a great rescue therapy when normal tricks don’t work in ventilation problems. Takes mech pressure off lungs @RogerRdharris #YACC

How to pick your LMA for intubation conduit – by @jducanto #YACC pic.twitter.com/rcOBSyjayZ — Thomas D (@thomas1973) June 18, 2015
LMAs -we often put them in too deep! With flexible scope, might need to adjust (withdraw) LMA slightly to center larynx to LMA opening #YACC — Thomas D (@thomas1973) June 18, 2015

Also the Air-Q has largest inner diameter of those LMAs. Air-Q 4.5 will fit 8.5 tube, Air-Q 3.5 will fit a 7.5 tube. @jducanto #YACC15

RSI mods: Paralytics give best view, but with VL view is “always” good. So w VL, use KSI – Ketamine Supported Induction @emupdates #YACC15 — Thomas D (@thomas1973) June 18, 2015
DSI -sedation for preoxygenation in agitated @emupdates #YACC15 — Minh Le Cong (@ketaminh) June 18, 2015
KSI Ketamine only intubation .useful in select cases where apnoea bad and assisted withVL =easier #YACC15 @emupdates — Minh Le Cong (@ketaminh) June 18, 2015

Obesity is not a predictor of difficult airways in itself, but do individual assessment (esp for Mallampati, neck circumf & OSA) — Thomas D (@thomas1973) June 19, 2015
Obese pts difficult to mask ventilate, usually not diff to intubate (as long as ramped).
— Thomas D (@thomas1973) June 19, 2015
Obese pts desaturate quickly due to high metabolic demand combined with low FRC= small lungs in big body. Like small kids. — Thomas D (@thomas1973) June 19, 2015
For obese pt intubations, consider some variation of rapid induction to bypass difficult mask ventilation and go straight to intubation.
