Article Synopsis
- A critical "cannot-ventilate, cannot-intubate" situation emphasizes the need for effective airway management techniques like transtracheal jet ventilation (TTJV), which requires specialized equipment.
- This study aimed to compare the performance of TTJV using two devices: a manual jet ventilator (MJV) and an oxygen flush device from an anesthetic machine (AM), focusing on the impact of upper airway resistance (UAR).
- Results showed that while UAR affected the forward flow during TTJV with the MJV, the AM did not deliver an adequate flow, indicating that the devices respond differently to changes in UAR.
