"Otherwise, how about inserting a tube?" Li Qian'an started thinking and suggested an idea.
Did this guy have experience in obstetrics? Did he know that it was time to intubate the baby? Lin Hao looked at Li and asked, "What kind of tube should be intubated?"
You need to know which tube to insert so that you can run to the ambulance and find the emergency equipment.
There are several options for intubating children, just like intubating adults. Is it an oropharyngeal airway or tracheal intubation via laryngoscopy?
"This, this--" Anxious Li Qian'an felt his brain freeze again, digging for knowledge points in his memory, "That thing doesn't look like the oropharyngeal ventilation tube used by adults. It has a mask. I think I've seen it in the operating room?"
"There are masks and endotracheal intubation tubes. Are you talking about laryngeal mask?" As he said this, Lin Hao wanted to kick Li on the butt. After all this time, he, who had never been to the obstetrics and gynecology department, needed to remember what this thing was called.
"Yes, yes, it's a laryngeal mask." Li Qian'an nodded vigorously. "They said that the laryngeal mask can be inserted blindly without a laryngoscope. We can definitely give it a try."
Laryngeal mask refers to the laryngeal mask airway, which is an artificial airway established by doctors like the oropharyngeal ventilator and endotracheal tube, and is mainly used in emergency resuscitation and operating room anesthesia. Although the laryngeal mask is connected to a tracheal tube on one side and is similar to an endotracheal tube, it is not an endotracheal tube. Its endotracheal tube is short in length, and the insertion depth is not as deep as the endotracheal tube into the trachea, but only into the throat cavity to reach the upper end of the esophagus.
The exhaled gas entering the laryngeal mask airway tube is aimed at the glottis, which can also serve as an artificial airway. As for the other end of the laryngeal mask connected to the mask, it can act as a sealing ring in the patient's larynx, sealing the airway tightly to maintain a more effective ventilation effect, which is a unique design feature of the laryngeal mask itself.

Because the tube of the laryngeal mask is designed to be short enough for oropharyngeal ventilation, it can be boldly inserted blindly in clinical practice. Unlike endotracheal intubation, if the tube is inserted blindly, there is a risk that the tube will not enter the trachea but go into the esophagus.
The newborn baby in front of me is too small, weighing only about 6 pounds at full term. It is hard to intubate the child through laryngoscopy. It is even harder to intubate the child during cardiopulmonary resuscitation. It sounds like a laryngeal mask can be used to try to establish an artificial airway.
Lin Hao asked: "Yingying, what do you think? If you think it's okay, we will go find a laryngeal mask right away. If there is no laryngeal mask in the ambulance, we will run to the hospital to get it."
Perhaps Lin Hao had just been to the ambulance to look for something and knew that there might not be a laryngeal mask in the ambulance.
Xie Wanying did not respond to her classmates immediately. Her brows were furrowed as she continued to focus on a certain line of thought.
Knowing that Xie would not be able to regain his composure once he became stubborn, Lin Hao could only look at Song Xuelin unwillingly to see if this Beidu talent agreed with their suggestion.
Not surprisingly, Song Xuelin's brown eyes seemed to be completely speechless about the two guys beside him again.
It is not random to use your own brain to give others suggestions. When you think of ideas, please think about whether what you think of is clinical common sense. If so, what clinical doctors will think of does not need a bunch of students to give suggestions. This is also why some clinical doctors often remain silent when they hear students making suggestions, because the teachers have already considered these students' opinions.
