Efficacy of Surface Landmark Palpation for Identification of the Cricoid Cartilage in Obstetric Patients

London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute OR Lawson Research Institute of St. Joseph's·observational·Posted Apr 14, 2015·Updated Mar 3, 2016

In Brief

An observational study evaluating Cricoid pressure and Ultrasound for Aspiration Pneumonia. Completed, enrolled 90 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Rapid Sequence Induction (RSI), with cricoid pressure is advocated for all obstetric patients undergoing general anesthesia. Applying cricoid pressure correctly is crucial to prevent aspiration. Using Ultrasound guidance we will be assessing the ability of different disciplines of caregivers to correctly localize the cricoid cartilage in obstetric patients by anatomical landmark palpation.

Interventions

Cricoid pressureprocedure

participants will ask to mark the place where they will apply cricoid pressure if the patients was undergoing rapid sequence induction. US will be used to confirm how accurate they are in their estimation.
