Ruben Strayer of EMUpdates posted a great video on how to do a cricothyrotomy. The only things that I would change are
- I would likely be swearing a lot more out of sheer panic
- I’d have everything ready (syringe and bougie)
- I’d pass the bougie in before removing the scalpel, just paranoid of losing that entrance
- I would also have a change of underwear or two ready
Great video of a procedure we do not do often. The more we see it, the less freaked out we’ll be by it.

He actually has another video of the same. How many cameras does this guy have in the resusc bay?
