The New England Journal of Medicine in their Videos in Clinical Medicine section have released a video that covers performing positive pressure ventilation with bag-valve and face mask.
This video demonstrates how to perform orotracheal intubation. Specific indications are discussed, along with contraindications, troubleshooting, and complications.
Specific topics covered in the video include:
- Overview
- Indications
- Contraindications
- Equipment
- Procedure
- Complications
The video can be viewed and downloaded at the NEJM. The video also has a PDF summary to accompany it.
Some previous Videos in Clinical Medicine include endotracheal intubation, arterial line insertion, nasogastric tube insertion, lumbar puncture and thoracentesis.
These are great learning/teaching tools and I definitely recommend checking them out.
