What else can I help you with?
Once the victim has an advanced airway ventilation should be delivered?
Once the victim has an advanced airway in place, such as an endotracheal tube or supraglottic airway, ventilation should be delivered using a bag-mask device or a ventilator. It's crucial to ensure proper placement of the airway to prevent complications and maintain effective ventilation. The goal is to provide adequate oxygenation and ventilation while monitoring the victim's response. Continuous assessment of the patient's condition is essential to adjust ventilation rates and volumes as needed.
An EMT who has advanced training specific areas of advanced life support is called?
Depends on which state you are in. Michigan has several levels. An EMT with advanced airway and IV skills is called a Specialist. An EMT with advanced airway, IV, cardiology and pharmocology is called a Paramedic.
What is positive airway pressure?
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)-- A ventilation device that blows a gentle stream of air into the nose during sleep to keep the airway open.
What is a suction device used for in a crash cart?

What advanced airway is inappropriate for a patient at high risk of vomiting and aspiration?
uncuffed endotraceal tub
What is a tracheostomy cuff?
A tracheostomy cuff is the part of the airway device that inflates to hold the tube in place.
Essential airway skills include manual clearing airway manual maneuvers suctioning and what?
Essential airway skills also include the use of advanced airway devices, such as endotracheal intubation and supraglottic airway devices, to secure and maintain an open airway. Additionally, bag-mask ventilation is crucial for providing adequate oxygenation and ventilation in patients who cannot breathe effectively on their own. Mastery of these skills is vital for emergency responders and healthcare professionals in managing airway emergencies.
What is the proper ventilation rate for a patient in cardiac arrest who has a advanced airway in place?
One breath every 5 seconds
What is the correct CPR for 2 rescuer with advanced airway in adult?
compressions and ventilations ata constant rate for two minutes
HUMSA is a device of which type?
HUMSA is a advanced sonar
What is an Oral device to help sleep apnea?
An oral device for sleep apnea, often referred to as a mandibular advancement device (MAD), is a custom-fitted mouthpiece designed to keep the airway open during sleep. It works by repositioning the jaw and tongue to prevent airway obstruction. These devices are typically prescribed for individuals with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea and can be a comfortable alternative to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is essential to ensure effectiveness and comfort.
When connected properly to a victim an AED device will advise you to do what?
It will first advise that it will analyze (in which case nobody should touch the patient). Next, it will advise if a shock is or isn't required.
