Treatment & Procedures
Airway management is critical to the practice of emergency medicine. It is an essential skill when caring for severely injured or ill patients. RSI or rapid sequence intubation is one of the most used means of intubating the trachea for airway management.
A collapsed lung can pose a severe danger to a patient, in addition to pain and distress. A quick and effective emergency procedure known as needle aspiration allows a doctor to remove air from the chest cavity, reducing the pressure on the collapsed lung and allowing it to function normally. In some cases, a more advanced procedure known as Percutaneous…
In cases where a patient is unable to breathe due to restricted airways, an emergency procedure known as a tracheostomy is performed to allow the patient to breathe directly from an opening in the throat which is connected to a ventilator. This is a key life-saving emergency procedure that prevents the patient from asphyxiating.
