How this exercise works
Sort airway tools and ventilation strategies into the correct management categories — basic adjuncts, advanced airways, BVM, CPAP, and rescue techniques.
Fundamental concept
Categorizing basic adjuncts, supraglottic devices, intubation, BVM, CPAP, and rescue techniques for failing ventilation.
Read: Advanced Airway & Respiratory Management →Scenario
Witnessed VF arrest. CPR in progress. Team debating airway versus compressions priority.
Sort each intervention into the correct category.
Items
OPA during BVM without interrupting compressions
Passive oxygen via nasal cannula during compressions only
Continuous compressions with asynchronous ventilations after advanced airway
Endotracheal intubation by skilled provider with minimal pause
Waveform capnography to confirm tracheal placement
Supraglottic airway after failed BVM with adjunct
BVM 30:2 before advanced airway placement
Suction of upper airway secretions
