Cricothyroidotomy needle length is associated with posterior tracheal wall injury: A randomized crossover simulation study (CONSORT)

BACKGROUND: Cricothyroidotomy is the final strategy in the “cannot intubate, cannot oxygenate” scenario, but half of needle cricothyroidotomy attempts result in failure. The most frequent complication in needle cricothyroidotomy is posterior tracheal wall injury. We hypothesized that needle length i...
