Clinical Signs
Needle
Decompression of a pneumothorax
Decompression
can be performed bilaterally by
(Prehospital inserting a needle at the
Only) midclavicular line of the second
intercostal space.
Laryngospasm Closes the patient's vocal cords and
(Prehospital prevents both ventilation and
Only)
intubation.
Posterior Swelling of the posterior
Pharynx oropharynx (posterior airway
Swelling/ occlusion) obstructs the view of the
Airway larynx and prevents intubation, but
Occlusion
allows mask ventilation of the
patient's lungs, thereby creating a
"cannot intubate, can ventilate"
scenario.
