Sustained, exhaled carbon dioxide by waveform capnography is an essential component of tracheal intubation.

But what if there is bronchospasm?

Tracheal intubation can be confirmed using flexible bronchoscopy.

In this case, the pulmonary artery catheter had been inadvertently sutured to the pulmonary artery likely when an injury occurred at the base of the pulmonary artery during an ascending aortic replacement.

It was noticed when the PAC was difficult to remove.

Have you heard of the psoas sheath block?

It is a novel approach to the lumbar plexus.

Local anaesthetic goes into the potential space between the psoas major muscle and its surrounding fascia.

Methaemoglobinaemia can arise due to the administration of local anaesthetic agents.

This patient experienced a rapid onset of methaemoglobinaemia following airway topicalisation with lidocaine and benzocaine sprays for bronchoscopy.

During hyperangulated #videolaryngoscopy #HAVL the ETT was passed through the soft palate

The authors discuss a โ€˜blind spotโ€™ of the oropharynx during videolaryngoscopy.

Any thoughts?

The Safe Anaesthesia Liaison Group recommends standardising waveform capnography as a white solid filled-in graph at the bottom of the monitor display.

Is there compliance with the SALG standard in the UK?
