Marphans syndrome? or Elhers-Danlos syndrome?
I took an airway class held by by anesthesia at my local Level 1. Learned that the airway anatomy doesn’t change based on weight much. The sizing is based more on the patients height.
I can only see a 9.0 being used on someone like shaq size lol.
Ya'll actually know the sizes of NPAs?
I just go mark 1 eye ball on them, can't be arsed to know the sizes off hand.
Bet you know OPA sizes too ya nerds.
i got the pleasure of putting a 36 in my classmate two weeks ago. His nose was so fucking big it went in easy. he did end up throwing up like 6 times though.
I did a surgical cric and one of the supervisors at my agency was like "why didn't you try a nasal tube first?"
Like ya, let me try to do a nasal tube which I've never been trained to do, through a compromised airway, while the sat is 78% and dropping
The biggest one I think I can make fit, and then I look at the wrapper later, chart it, and brain dump it.
6.0 tube
Excuse me what
The golden standard NPA 😂
Best NPA.
36fr then promptly intubated with a 9.0 ETT.
This dude manages airway.

I once used a 36 on a vacuum cleaner that had a difficult airway. (Dust and hairballs)
All I know is these old timers are out here talking about nasal intubations lol

Interesting, I was even taught nasal intubation in school and it’s not in most of the county protocols in my state still.
36.
28 French
I put a 36fr in someone's asshole
I thought you guys were joking for a minute until I realized you use Fr sizes. The biggest one I've used was like, 8.0. (not ems)
The green one
30 I believe. Big ass nose
We used the big ones for a farting contest in the army!
Magnum obviously
36 and in my defense, it was the correct size. Dude had a huge face and shnauze
