AIRWAY: TUBE IT:WHAT TO DO IN A PINCH

8-14% of patients become a difficult intubationOnly 0-1% become difficult in the OR environment12-26% become hypoxemic6-26% become severely hypoxemic
Tips:HAVE A BACK UP PLANUSE THE BOUGIEUSE THE VIDEO (GLIDESCOPE) Trauma considerations:full stomach--should avoid RSIcervical instability--Is there an airway? Remember, a surgical airway is not a failure!these patients are at high risk for extubation, and may be difficult to re-intubate

Take away thoughts: Think about intubation early, BEFORE it becomes emergent. (ie...morbid obese patient, hypotensive, and now is hypoxic on bipap. This is an example of late thinking).
RSI simply means: pre-oxygenate, induce, paralyze, put the tube in

BREATHING: BRACE YOURSELVES: UPDATES IN RIB
FIXATION FOR THORACIC TRAUMA
Presented by Dr. Reza Khodaverdian, Dept of Cardiothoracic Surgery, HCMC
![Page 6: I recently attended a conference in Minneapolis: "Care Across the Continuum: A Trauma and Critical Care Conference“. I wanted to share my notes…..Toni](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081007/56649db95503460f94aa9742/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Use of titanium internal fixation devices are proven to decrease pain, decrease risk of developing pneumonia, decrease ventilator days, decrease morbidity and decrease hospital stay.
Indications: >or= 3 rib fractures with flail segment, intractable pain and chest wall deformity.

CIRCULATION: RED RIVERS: REVERSAL OF
ANTICOAGULATION CRITICAL SETTINGS
Presented by Dr. Scott Chapman, PharmD, Assoc. Prof, Dept of Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology, College of Pharmacy, Univ of MN and North Memorial

Warfarin reversal:
Vit K and FFP are currently the primary choiceIV Vit K is the quickest route of reversal (subcut is not a very predictable onset)PCC-(prothrombin complex concentrate products) amount of factor 7 varies in this product, and the appropriate dosing is still yet to be determined--currently 7units to 50units/kg seems to be effectivestudies show that PCC and Vit K have a rapid onset drop in INR but both had rebound INR---need to re-doseRFVIIa(recombinant factor VIIa)-- after administration, 27 minutes INR from 2.8 down to 1.2, similar onset as PCC, but shows less re-dosing needed than the PCC

PEDIATRIC HEAD TRAUMA UPDATE
Presented by Dr. Christopher Johnson , Dir. PICU at St. Cloud Hospital

------injury is the leading cause of death in PEDS------40% come from head injuries------475,000 TBI a year---30%<4 years oldOverall mortality of all kids presenting to the ED with a head injury =4%
Primary injury=direct injury, and often irreversableSecondary Injury=subsequent injury, preventable and profoundly affected by intervention (ie..prolonged seizure post head injury, uncontrolled ICP, fever control)
Goal: optimizing treatment to prevent secondary injury.

FALLING DOWN STAIRS: ABUSE or BAD LUCK
Presented by Dr. Jeffrey Louie
![Page 12: I recently attended a conference in Minneapolis: "Care Across the Continuum: A Trauma and Critical Care Conference“. I wanted to share my notes…..Toni](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081007/56649db95503460f94aa9742/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
932,000 pediatric stair falls a year in the US= child falls down the stairs every 6 minutes----97% of those seen in the ED discharge home----76% have head injury (includes lacerations etc…)----11% have an upper extremity injury----4% concussion/intracranial bleed----<1% mortality, AND OF ALL STAIR FALLS NONE = ABDOMINAL INJURY
Age guidelines:6 months old = roll over9 months old = sit up or pull up12 months old = walking18 months old = independent walkingTypical injury with stair falls related to age:<4 years old = head> 4 years old = forearm injury, lower extremity injury, and head
BE AWARE (red flag!!!!): Trunk injuries are rare!!!, Femur fractures are rare. Start thinking about abuse.
