In this episode I first announce the new ACCRAC website here at ACCRAC.com. Big thanks to Bryan Mariscalchi for his help setting it up. I also mention the problem the last two episodes had with only playing out of one ear on earphones. I hope I’ve cleared that problem up. I mention a fantastic book called “Missing Microbes” by Martin Blaser, here is a link to the NY Times review: Missing Microbes

The bulk of the episode is a description of the paraglossal approach to endotracheal incubation. Here is a youtube link to a video of the technique: Paraglossal video
Have you ever used this technique? Do you like it?

There are a few announcements I wanted to make including:
Check out pedsanesthesia.net. Dr. Robert Greenberg, a pediatric anesthesiologist here at Johns Hopkins runs it and it has lots of great information and topics in pediatric anesthesiology.
CME: https://cmefy.com/moment?id=VZ7M3tT
If you have suggestions for a better website than this one please let me know!
If you know a good way to set up an email list serve for these kinds of announcements please let me know that as well.
And, finally, I address a surgeon’s comment to one of our residents that you should always use 100% fio2 when ventilating one lung during a thoracic case. Listen to the podcast for details but the bottom line is you should NOT use 100% oxygen unless you have to in order to prevent hypoxia.

This is a very high yield episode to help you review for the anesthesia board exam. I cover the board key word section entitled gas laws which includes a focus on volatile anesthetics, their properties, and how they act on, and in, the human body.
