#CCR23: In the DEVICE trial, the use of video laryngoscopy in critically ill patients undergoing intubation in the ED or ICU resulted in a higher incidence of successful intubation on the first attempt than direct laryngoscopy. nej.md/43H2t79


Another great day of awakes! Still floored that I’m afforded the privilege to work and teach with these legends. @SowersMD included.

AIME Awake cadaver course in Halifax. Awesome to spend the day soaking up pearls with master clinicians/mentors Adam Law and George Kovacs again. @ParxEM @CAEP_Docs

First time seeing/using the peds Glidescope HAVL blade. Found the handle extremely small rendering laryngoscopy challenging. Any tips/tricks on troubleshooting this from #AirwayTwitter?

For Ace inhibitor-induced angioedema should we be doing steroids/epi/antihistamines? What about FFP? TXA? Icatibant? Ecallantide? C1 esterase? What ACTUALLY works? Dr. Murray has our answers: emottawablog.com/2022/11/ace-in…

We often talk about performing awake intubations in the ED, but there are some nuances in the actual process to consider. Dr. Nicholas Choi has a great approach to increase your procedural comfort, with some insights from @ParxEM and @airwaycam emottawablog.com/2022/12/awake-…

Historically, we have approached angioedema the same way we do anaphylaxis, out of a paucity of evidence. Dr. Murray takes a deep dive into ACE inhibitor-induced angioedema, and gives us the best evidence-based wisdom on approaching these patients: emottawablog.com/2022/11/ace-in…

Be sure to check your kids' Halloween candy this year. I cut into my son's Butterfinger and it's recommending he routinely perform cricoid pressure.

More evidence showing high rates (7.4%) of awareness of paralysis among ED patients 😬😬😬 journal.chestnet.org/article/S0012-…

Pretty jarring study in Annals of EM showing prevalence of awareness following ED intubation of 2.6% (more common in patients who received rocuronium)...(1/3) A few recommendations below. annemergmed.com/article/S0196-…
