Abstract:
Jacob or Nat will take the audience through the issues of CICO in paediatric patients
- high likelihood of failure with needle techniques
- HALO procedure with no clear solution for non-ENT
We will then showcase the evolution of the custom built task trainer (named Hemsworth), a 9m old sized manikin with interchangeable neck modules, and our practiced steps for infant and paediatric tracheostomy.
We might try to include a case study (fictional)…
The audience will learn
- why needle techniques are not the ideal end-of-algorithm step
- a simple rundown of the steps of the technique
- our key learning points and top tips
