Additional Information for Emergency Percutaneous Airway Kit
Emergency Percutaneous Airway Kits are medical devices used in emergency situations to establish an airway in patients who are experiencing difficulty breathing or are unable to breathe on their own. These kits are part of the supply class Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies, which falls under the supply group Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies.
The Emergency Percutaneous Airway Kit typically includes various components such as:
1. Needle: A large bore needle used for puncturing the cricothyroid membrane, which is located between the thyroid and cricoid cartilages in the neck.
2. Catheter: A flexible tube that is inserted through the puncture site to establish an airway. It allows for the passage of air into the lungs.
3. Syringe: Used to inflate the cuff of the catheter once it is inserted into the airway to secure its position.
4. Scalpel: A small surgical knife used to make a small incision in the skin overlying the cricothyroid membrane, creating an entry point for the needle and catheter.
5. Dilator: A device used to widen the puncture site and facilitate the insertion of the catheter.
6. Securing device: This can be a strap or tape used to secure the catheter in place once it is inserted.
Emergency Percutaneous Airway Kits are designed to be used by trained medical professionals in emergency situations where traditional methods of airway management, such as intubation or bag-valve-mask ventilation, are not feasible or unsuccessful. These kits provide a quick and effective means of establishing an emergency airway to ensure adequate oxygenation and ventilation of the patient.
