Episode 35 - The Trachea

FOAMcast - An Emergency Medicine Podcast - A podcast by FOAMcast

Categories:

In this episode, we cover the New York Times article, "What Comes After The Heimlich Maneuver" and Dr. Seth Trueger's take on this article, "Bad Idea Jeans." The take home message - cricothyrotomies should be done by experts and we should probably traine ourselves for these a little better. Then, we cover core content pearls on tracheostomy emergencies and a quick summary of infections in or near the trachea.  Visit foamcast.org for more as well as generously donated Rosh Review questions. Thanks y'all! -Jeremy Faust and Lauren Westafer
