At SAM2015 Dr. Awad gave a wonderful lecture about the future of robotic in intubation. I interviewed him afterwards and challenged the need for this technology (I think he will win in the end!). I also talk about upcoming meeting and why you should go !
Dr. William Rosenblatt delivers the first Ovassapian Lecture at the American Society for Anesthesiologists meeting in New Orleans, October 12, 2014. After a tribute to Dr. Ovassapian, Dr. Rosenblatt describes the Airway Approach Algorithm which he published in 2006. The video version can be seen on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdu15Di2qP8&list=UUY2mivGgN23XzoE6zZOVTvA
Dr Paul Baker deals with numerous children with difficult airways. In this AODpi interview he gives us some pointers on working with these kids using the flexible intubation scope and awake intubation.
General and vascular surgeon, Jack Pacey discusses the development of the glidescope. I think this discussion is vital for anyone who has ever considered "invention" in or outside of medicine.
Our first SAM2014 interview... once again the pendulum swings in favor of aggressive intubation use in the pre-hosptial environment. Dr. Wayne speaks not only about the use of videolaryngoscopy but the importance of training for these providers. He reveals some key elements which are applicable to the OR.
Dr. Paul Baker has developed a virtual reality simulator for FOB leading. We speak about its development and the future of FOB practice.
In this AODpi episode, Dr. Urdaneta interview me regarding the Ovasspian lecture at the ASA... the first ever.
Johns Hopkins Medical Center has a sophisticated difficult airway response team which we decided to model at Yale. Lauren Berkow, MD, the co-director of the team talks about its history and logistics
SAM Executive Director joined me on AODpi for a discussion about the upcoming meeting and the World Airway Meeting (WAM) in November 2015.
AODpi has been podcasting for 16 weeks. Its time to hear from you. Please let me know how you listen to AODpi - iTunes ? SoundCloud ? Have you been getting my tweets or do you come via the SAM website ? How about YouTube - Ive started posting the older episodes there. In any case, if no one is listening, it's time to say goodbye. Otherwise I will keep to posting. Contact me at info@AirwayOnDemand.com or @AirwayOnDemand or TXT me if you know my phone number. By the way, let me know if you have any requests.
Dr. Richard Dutton of the ASA's Quality Institute will be speaking at the upcoming SAM meeting in Seattle, Washington. I spoke to Richard about the goals of the airway management quality reporting effort
This interview took place in May at the IARS meeting in Montreal. Dr. Cooper is the current President of the Society For Airway Management, and has for many years been a advocate of extubation precautions. The closed claims database has demonstrated how there has been a reduction in claims related to induction and intubation, yet no change in claims related to the phase of extubation. Dr. Cooper gives concrete suggestions on who to be concerned about and what actions to take.
Mario Castro will be a highlighted speaker at the 2014 SAM meeting in Seattle. In this AODpi interview he speaks about new interventional pulmonology procedures for the severe asthmatic adult.
The ASA has announced an update of the 2005 OSA Guidelines. Dr. Foley discusses this update and her lecture at the SAM meeting in Seattle September 19-21, 2001. Topics included are the STOP-BANG tool, pre and post-op CPAP, when do you cancel a case for suspected OSA and the use of IV acetaminophen in these patients.
Nick Chrimes and his colleague, Peter Fritz, both anesthesiologists in Australia, have developed a cognitive tool for managing the emergency, failed airway. The Vortex Approach describes a simple algorithm which can easily be applied in a crisis situation. The Vortex is easy to follow and communicate and makes multi-specialy attended patient management more efficient.
We talk about rescuing a failed airway with the use of a suprglottic airway. But what now ? Dr. David Wong gives options for changing an SGA to an ETT in a difficult airway patient.
At our meeting during IARS in Montreal, Canada, Dr Suresh and I chatted about the special airway circumstances of the patient in the delivery suite. As you may know, a recent database from SOAP has updated information in this field. Dr. Suresh speaks on the highlights of this data.
Dr. Osborn talks about the airway management and anesthetic management particular to the AAA craniotomy.
Richard Cooper did the earliest trials with the Glidescope. His series of 728 patients has now been called a "Classic" by the Canadian Journal of Anesthesia. I met Dr. Cooper at the IARS in Montreal, and we had a great conversation.
AODpi interviews Dr Lenhardt during the 2014 IARS meeting in Montreal, Canada. Dr. Lenhardt speaks about his recently published paper on combining videolaryngoscopy and a single-use flexible tracheoscope in difficult airway patients.
The Maxillofacial Surgery Patient and Airway Management With Andrew Herlitch
Severe Rheumatic Syndromes and Airway Management with Richard Galgon, MD
Dr. Keith Haller has been researching children with facial and airway hemangiomas. In this podcast Dr. Haller will discuss the precautions a generalist should take if confronted with such a patient. "Keith, pretend you are an anesthesia generalist on call in a small hospital and one of these kids comes in for an urgent orthopedic procedure. What are my main concerns? How do I evaluate this kid for anesthesia." Dr. Haller will be starting his fellowship in pediatric anesthesia this July in Boston.
This week, AODpi speak to Dr. Lynette Mark of the John Hopkins Hospital. Starting in the early 1990's Dr Mark, along with Andy Ovassapian, Martin Norton and others developed the idea of an airway registry. The fruits of their labor resulted in over 12,000 patients being entered into the registry housed at the Medicalert Foundation. (go to www.medicalert.org/difficultairway) and the founding of the Society For Airway Management (www.SAMhq.org). Dont miss this piece of history, and a modern tool for your patients!
Dr Felipe Urdaneta from the University of Florida discusses an editorial in Anaesthesia 2014 regarding the lack of true scientific trials in the airway managment literature.
An exciting look into the (airway) future is the theme of the upcoming Society for Airway Management meeting in Seattle this September. Program director, Professor Valerie Armstead will talk about the innovative speakers and program format which will make this a memorable meeting. The social events alone is worth the trip to Seattle !
