The Ultimate Induction
• Two rules– air goes in and out
– blood goes round and round
• Many different recipes– Pick your own
– As long as the cake rises………………..
• Expertise comes down to time at the wheel

Induction in Critical Care
• A different contract with the patient than inducing anaesthesia
1. Keep the alive
2. Keep them comfortable
3. Prevent recall
4. Make them unconscious
• Awareness of induction is not the worst possible outcome
![Page 12: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Induction in Critical Care
• Data (e.g. NAP4) highlights difference between OT and ICU/ED
• Often no bail out option
• Many things are done by experts are intuitive
• Induction is a complex process, need to fly at high altitude
![Page 13: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

What I should be feeling
![Page 18: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What I really felt
![Page 19: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
What are our options?
• RSI and look?
• Video Laryngoscope?
• Awake FOI?
• Avoid GA?
![Page 20: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Meanwhile
![Page 21: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Discussed plan with Patrick
• Decided FOI was not reasonable
– Pain, Opioids, Moderate Hypoxia
– Unable to sit up
• Plan
A. Modified RSI +/- bougie
B. Videolaryngoscopy
C. Blind bougie +/- proseal (if still not in trachea)
D. Prearranged second consultant backup
![Page 22: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Plan A……….
• Normal modified RSI
• Attempted laryngoscopy
– Proper Grade 4
– Narrow crowded teeth
– Early use of bougie – unable to find trachea
– Abandoned while sats still OK
– Bag & mask
– Pulse Ox lag ++++
![Page 23: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Plan B…………….
• Attempt with Videolaryngoscope
– Unable to get into mouth
– Pulled apart – no joy
– Bailed 2nd time
– Able to bag/mask
– Called for assistance
![Page 24: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Plan ??????????
• Second Anaesthestist inserted Proseal
• Attempted to use FO scope down Proseal to guide bougie – unsuccessful
• Things are starting to look ugly
![Page 25: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

15 Years of Anaesthetic Adventures
• Airway not ideal……………
• Air going in and out
• Relatively short case
• Decided to accept the supraglottic airway
![Page 27: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

A failure of airway management
• Anxious in my first week back as a consultant
• Unfamiliar with the VDL
• The second consultant was not involved in the airway management planning
• I bailed on my own plan – never got to C
![Page 29: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Lessons Learnt
• It is better to be lucky than good!
• Accepting a less than perfect airway is sometimes appropriate– Air goes in and out
– Repeated goes at the larynx is not wise
– FOI can be tricky in trauma
• Maintaining situational awareness and dynamic decision making ability

Checklists
![Page 32: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Information Overload
![Page 33: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
M.A.I.D.E.For Every Induction
• Monitoring
• Assistance
• Intravenous access
• Drugs
• Equipment
![Page 34: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Monitoring
• Check it is connected and reading
• NIBP Cycle time
• Arterial line?
• ETCO2
![Page 35: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Assistance
• Need skilled help
• Two questions to assess level of experience
– Cricoid pressure?
– Pass the bougie?
• Critical Care Induction will often require another doctor
– Delineate roles
![Page 36: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Intravenous Access
• Often overlooked in a crisis
• In non-haemorragic induction, don’t need huge bore
• Must run freely
• Low threshold for replacing
![Page 37: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Drugs
• What you will use plus emergency drugs
• Endless debate about best induction recipe
• Ketamine/Rocuronium seems reasonable in shock
• Use what you know best
• Don’t skimp on paralysis
![Page 38: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Equipment
• Airways – 3 options– Through Cords (ETT)
– Over Cords (LMA)
– Under Cords (Crico)
• Laryngoscopes– Classic
– Video
– Fibreoptic
• Positive Pressure– Bag/Mask
– O2 outlet
• Negative Pressure– Sucker under head
• Adjuncts– Guedel
– Bougie
![Page 39: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Sounds Sweet?

CT Report
• “A large mass extends from the anterior mediastinum into the middle mediastinum, and superiorly towards the left, partially compressing the left pulmonary artery. There is severe compression of the trachea from the carina to the thoracic inlet, with a minimum diameter of 3.6mm”
![Page 46: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
ICU Ward Round

Plan?
• Thoughts……………………
• Options………………………..
• The only thing going through my head was…..
![Page 48: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

We consulted Townsville
• Definitive diagnosis via mediastinal biopsy
• Possible Cardiothoracic resection
• Probable Radiotherapy
• Advised us to secure her airway for transfer….
![Page 50: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Mission Impossible?
![Page 51: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
What are the options?
• Standard Induction – “Sux and see?”
• Awake FOI – Smallest bronchoscope is 4mm
• Gas induction?
• Retrieval with ECMO/CPB?
![Page 52: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Group Mined
• Collaborative decision making
• Robust discussion with trust
• Anaesthesia, Intensive Care, ENT and General Surgery
• We came to a consensus…………..
![Page 53: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
This is a crisis, a large crisis
In fact, if you got a moment, it's a twelve-storey crisis with a magnificent entrance hall, carpeting throughout, 24-hour portage, and an enormous sign on the roof, saying 'This Is a Large Crisis'.
A large crisis requires a large plan. Get me two pencils and a pair of underpants.
![Page 54: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
“Two pencils and a pair of undies”
![Page 55: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
M.A.I.D.E.For Every Induction
• Monitoring
• Assistance
• Intravenous access
• Drugs
• Equipment
![Page 56: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
First use of ‘Staged Intubation’
• Airway too narrow for anything other than a wire
• Big team involved, clear communication of plan
• Principle was to keep patient awake and in control of her own airway for as long as possible
![Page 57: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Precarious Position
• Three senior anaesthetists + two techs
– FO Scope
– Staged Extubation Kit
– Drugs and Monitoring
• Theatre cleared of all unnecessary personnel
• ENT surgeons scrubbed and standing by
![Page 58: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Steady, steady
• Regulation topicalization and fibreoptic visualisation of cords
• Through cords and guidewire fed down bronchoscopic biopsy channel
• Position confirmed with Image Intensifier
![Page 59: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Point of no return
• IV Induction
• Bougie fed over guidewire
• Size 6 Microlaryngoscopy ETT railroaded over bougie into right main bronchus
• Confirmed with subsequent brochoscopy
![Page 60: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Transferred to Townsville
• Poorly differentiated tumour
• Extubated after 22 days post radiotherapy
• First time it has been done (we think), submitted for publication
• Rejected!
![Page 61: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)

Anaesthetists Trade Secrets
• New Zealand Crisis Algorithm– Assume nothing
– Trust no-one
– Give oxygen
• We always ventilate in RSI
• Cricoid pressure tells everyone the airway is important, but doesn’t really help the patient
![Page 63: BCC4: Sean McManus on The Ultimate Induction](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032114/55a7234c1a28ab13188b46ad/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Anaesthetists Trade Secrets
• Dealing with a beard

Anaesthetists Trade Secrets
• Optimal Positioning
– ‘Sniffing the morning air’
– ‘Drinking a pint of lager’
• Need flexion of cervical spine
• Only use for Voluven
