<after> post-tube placement
AIRWAY SURGICAL PREP
[probe] linear
[preset] superficial
[parts] anterior neck
[position] mid-sagittal
[picture] cricoid & thyroid cartilage
AIRWAY SURGICAL PREP
anticipate your difficult airway
identify CTM from cartilage borders
mark your site
airwaY intubation
[probe] linear
[preset] superficial
[parts] suprasternal
[position] transverse
[picture] tracheal ring, esophagus
AIRWAY intubation
TRUE protocol (2011) during emergent intubation ---
93% concordance : w ave-capnography
median operating time: 9sec
---
Chou recommends real-time US to
confirm airway during CPR in trained hands
AIRWAY INTUBATION
i ndirect confirmation
real-time observation
use other modalities to corroborate
AIRWAY TUBE PLACEMENT
[probe] linear or curvilinear
[preset] superficial
[parts] left chest
[position] longitudinal
[picture] ribs, pleura
AIRWAY TUBE PLACEMENt
AIRWAY Tube placement
diagnosis of non-ventilated lung
(RMS, atelectasis)
---
93% sensitivity
100% specificity
---
no previous pulm disease

AIRWAY paracentesis thoracentesis SUBCLAVIAN CENTRAL LINE
paraCENTESIS prep
[probe] linear & curvilinear
[preset] superficial & abdominal
[parts] infraumbilical, lateral abdomen
[position] longitudinal, transverse
[picture] bladder, bowel, epigastric artery
Paracentesis technique
empty the bladder
reclining or lateral decubitus
mark epigastrics
survey area around target entry
measure bowel to wall
PARACENTESIS TECHNIQUE
do not move after position and US
Paracentesis stats
US guidance = 95%
Landmarks = 65%
250cc fluid
complications (US vs LM) = 1.4% vs 4.7%
PARACENTESIS pitfalls
distended bowel, bladder, cysts (renal, ovarian)
AIRWAY paracentesis thoracentesis SUBCLAVIAN CENTRAL LINE
THORACENTESIS prep
[probe] linear & curvilinear
[preset] abdominal or lung
[parts] dorsal, subscapular
[position] longitudinal
[picture] ribs, diaphragm, lung tissue
THORACENTESIS TECHNIQUE
VIDEO
Thoracentesis technique
patient position
diaphragm & lung
zone of safety

Subclavian lines prep
[probe] linear [preset] vascular [parts] clavicle, 1st rib [position] infraclavicular, supraclavicular [picture] SC artery, SC vein, pleura, IJ, ---| |---
SUBCLAVIAN LINES TECHNIQUE
VIDEO
infraclavicular technique
laterally @ shoulder in sagittal
ID axillary artery, axillary vein in short
INFRACLAVICULAR TECHNIQUE
VIDEO
infraclavicular TECHNIQUE
track SCV rotate to long view (45deg)
---| |--- to confirm venous flow (valsalva)
visualize needle, wire, catheter
check IJ for misplacement
check for PTX

subclavian lines stats
Success rates US vs Landmark
SupraCLAVICULAR technique
IJ --> sternoclavicular junction
ID brachiocephalic vein (BCV)
slide slightly laterally
ID junction of SCV to BCV
aim anteriorly (@ sternum)
Supraclavicular TECHNIQUE
VIDEO
SUBCLAVIAN LINES pitfalls
THINK coagulopathies
contralateral PTX
mistaking SCA for SCV
practice anatomy, in-plane ONLY
Limitations
airway
paracentesis
thoracentesis
subclavian lines
