Outstanding! The 9th edition (2013) of ATLS Student Course Manual recommends using a 12- or 14-gauge, 8.5 cm over-the-needle catheter (p 59). Inchildren, it recommends a 16- to 18-gauge catheter (p 45).The manual further states: "The cannula is then connected to oxygen at 15 L/min (40 to 50 psi) with a Y-connector or a side hole cut in the tubing between the oxygen source and the plastic cannula (p 45)."

The DIY connector with side hole is fantastic !

Very clear and concise. The best demonstration I've seen. Thank you for sharing :-)

I also recommend 2 cc of NS in the syringe used to entre the trachea. This will aid, from bubbles, in determining when the lumen is entered.

You are great doctor , very clear

Got stuck in a situation like this... But trust me.. There was no time to find something to cut a hole.. And no time to match the ett connector with the right syringe..

Excellent demonstration 👍👍

Great explanation and demonstration.

Great demonstration of diy stuff

I find it very hard to locate the cricothyroid membrane

Thank you for this useful demonstration. I have a question: Why do we only allow oxygen to be delivered for 1 second at a time? Would more oxygen not be beneficial?

Thanks dude 👌
