Oldie but Goldie: Medical Mnemonics

16/5/2015

 
Recovered from an old hard disk we proudly present a collection of medical mnemonics that were collected in the year 2000. Some of them might be a little outdated, but remain helpful for all students and newcomers... and it proves, the idea of open access meducation existed then already.

Feel free to share!

Trick for Successful Intubation over a Bougie

12/5/2015

 
Picture
One frequent problem that occurs when intubating over a bougie is that you might get caught with the tip of the endotracheal tube (ETT) in the epiglottic area and therefore can't advance into the trachea.

When you look at the ETT the way it is fabricated you will notice, that the distal opening is shaped angularly and the foremost tip of the tube is on the right. This tip has a good chance of getting caught at one of the structures in the epiglottic region.

The simplest solution is to retract the tube a little and perform an anti-clockwise turn.
