Hazards of Manual Resuscitation
Gastric distention Aspiration Diminished cardiac output
May be avoided by ventilating the patient using an inspiratory to expiratory (I:E) ration of 1:2, which allows the heart to fill during the expiratory phase when there is no pressure in the thoracic cavity
![Page 22: Airway Management Part I RET 2275 Respiratory Care Theory 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649dd45503460f94acc3ce/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Insertion Using a head-tilt-chin-lift, a modified jaw-thrust, or by grasping the
tongue and jaw by placing your thumb in the patient's mouth, move the tongue forward. Position the OPA as shown with the tip in the patient's mouth and slowly insert the OPA. As the OPA is being inserted, slight resistance will be felt.
![Page 28: Airway Management Part I RET 2275 Respiratory Care Theory 2.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062308/56649dd45503460f94acc3ce/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Insertion At the point resistance is met, insertion should continue while
simultaneously rotating the OPA 180°. Advance the OPA until the flange is resting on or just above the patient's teeth.

Cuff Pressure Monitoring Techniques
Auscultate over trachea Minimal Occluding Volume – inflate cuff until cuff air
leak stops Minimal Leak Technique – inflate cuff until cuff air leak
stops, then withdraw enough air to allow a small air leak at peak inspiration

Cuff Pressure Monitoring Techniques
Cuff Pressure Measurement Cufflator Checked once per shift Pressures not to exceed:
27 – 34 cm H2O (20 – 25 mm Hg)
Excessive pressures my cause tracheal damage if cuff pressures are greater than tracheal perfusion pressures

Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA)
This tube, when inserted into the larynx and the laryngeal cuff inflated, provides a closed seal system to ventilate the lower airway and protect against aspiration.
