Episode 35 - The Trachea

Published: Oct. 6, 2015, 11:38 p.m.

In this episode, we cover the New York Times article, "What Comes After The Heimlich Maneuver"\xa0and Dr. Seth Trueger's take on this article, "Bad Idea Jeans." The take home message - cricothyrotomies should be done by experts and we should probably traine ourselves for these a little better.

\n

Then, we cover core content pearls on tracheostomy emergencies and a quick summary of infections in or near the trachea. \xa0Visit foamcast.org\xa0for more as well as generously donated Rosh Review questions.

Thanks y'all!
