In most infants and small children
respiratory arrest precedes cardiac arrest.
Characteristics of Newborn Respiratory System
1. Infant lung is a unique structure not a mini- adult lung
2. Airways, distal lung tissue and pulmonary capillary bed
continue to grow and develop after birth
3. Alveoli development complete and adult anatomy
by 8-10 years of age
4. Ossification of ribs and sternum complete
by 25 years of age
Nose
• Obligatory nasal breathing
• Poor tolerance to obstruction
Tongue
• Relatively Large
• Neck extension may not relieve obstruction
Head
• Relatively large
• Anterior flexion may cause airway obstruction
Epiglottis
• Relatively large and U- shaped
• More susceptible to trauma
• Forms more acute angle with vocal cords
Cricoid
• Narrowest portion of airway
• ↑ resistance with airway edema or infection
• Acts as “cuff” during tracheal intubation
Effect
Of
Edema
If radius is halved, resistance increases 16 x
Trachea
• Small diameter (6mm), high compliance
• ↑ resistance with airway edema or infection
• Collapses easily with neck hyperflexion or hyperextension
↑ pulmonary vascular resistance
(PVR)
Very sensitive to constriction by
hypoxia, acidosis and hypercarbia
WOB
• Weak resp muscles
Regulation of Breathing
• Response to ↓ O2/ ↑ CO2 minimal
• Tolerates hypoxia poorly
Assessment
• 30 second rapid cardiopulmonary assessment is
structured around ABC’s.
• Airway
• Breathing
• Circulation
Airway
• Airway must be clear and patent for successful
ventilation.
• Position
• Clear of foreign body
• Free from injury
• Intubate if needed

“Patients do not die from
lack of intubation
they die from
lack of oxygenation”
Cricoid Pressure
(Sellick's Maneuver)
• Cricoid pressure is indicated in the intubation of
those who are deeply unconscious and in those
who have been paralyzed for intubation.
Breathing
• Breathing is assessed to determine the child’s ability to
oxygenate.
• Assessment:
• Respiratory rate
• Respiratory effort
• Breath sounds
• Skin color
Impending Respiratory Failure
• Respiratory rate less than 10 or greater than 60 is an
ominous sign of impending respiratory failure.
Prearrest. s
Airway assessment
• Best to 1st look from afar. Infants and small children don’t
like strangers hard to assess baseline after they are upset.
• Is the chest moving?
• Can you hear breath sounds?
• Are there any abnormal airway sounds ?
(e.g.. Stridor, snoring)
• Is there increased respiratory effort with retractions or
respiratory effort with no airway or breath sounds?

Airway Management
• Simple things to improve airway patency
• Suction nose and oropharynx
• child/ allow child to assume position of comfort
• head-tilt-chin lift/ jaw thrust
• Use airway adjuncts - NPA/ OPA
Oral & Naso pharyngeal Suctioning
• Clean technique
• Negative pressure of 80 to 120 mmHg. Test suction level on
regulator prior to suctioning
• Nasal and oral suction can be performed with same catheter
• May result in hypoxia?, ↓ HR (vagal), bronchospasm,
larygospasm, atelectasis

Nasopharyngeal Airways
• Can use in conscious/ semi-conscious pt
Contraindications:
• Basilar skull fracture
• CSF leak
• Serious midline facial
fractures
If these don’t work…
• Pt may require more advanced interventions to
establish a patent airway
• CPAP
CPAP uses mild air pressure to keep an airway open. CPAP typically is used for people
who have breathing problems …. Continuous positive airway pressure, a
particular type of ventilation (breathing) therapy
• Intubation
• …….
Positionning
•
If pt has preferred position let them remain in
that position e.g. tripod
• Repositioning can greatly improve airway
patency
• Manual airway maneuvers can also help open
the airway (head tilt-chin lift/ jaw thrust)
Positioning
Bag-Mask Ventilation
• Indicated when the pt’s spontaneous breathing
effort is inadequate despite patent airway
• Can provide adequate oxygenation and
ventilation until definitive airway control is
obtained
• Can be as effective as ventilation through ETT
Bagging Units

Indications for intubation
• Respiratory distress
• Apnea
• Upper airway obstruction or the potential to
develop upper airway obstruction
• Actual or potential decrease in airway protection
(compromised neurological function)
• Inadequate ventilation and/or oxygenation
Preparing for Intubation
• Appropriate ETT for >1 yo: (age/4) + 4
Term infant: 3.0-3.5 ID
6 mo: 3.5-4.0 ID
1 yo: 4.0-4.5 ID
• Cuffed ETT’s for pt’s > 8 yo
• If you anticipate need for high PEEP or PIP (peak inspiratory pressure)
may want to use cuffed ETT with <8 yo. Use ½ size smaller
ETT.
• Remember SOAPME
SOAPME
Suction equipment
Oxygen: O2 flowmeter, preoxygenate 2-3 min, manual resuscitator
bag with mask
Airway equipment: ETT, stylet, syringe (cuffed ETT), laryngoscope
and blade, lubricating gel, OPA
Position, pharmacy, personnel: supine, rolls for positioning, bed
height up
Monitors
ETCO2 detector
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is the pressure in the lungs (alveolar pressure) above
atmospheric pressure (the pressure outside of the body) that exists at the end of expiration.[1] The two types
of PEEP are extrinsic PEEP (PEEP applied by a ventilator) and intrinsic PEEP (PEEP caused by a noncomplete exhalation). Pressure that is applied or increased during an inspiration is termed pressure support.
Complications
•
•
Decrease in systemic venous return
Pulmonary barotrauma can be caused. Pulmonary barotrauma
is lung injury that results from the hyperinflation of alveoli past
the rupture point.
• Increased intracranial pressure — In people with normal lung
compliance, PEEP may increase the intracranial pressure (ICP)
due to an impedance of venous return from the head.[7]
• Renal functions and electrolyte imbalances, due to decreased
venous return metabolism of certain drugs are altered and acidbase balance is impeded.[8]
“BURP”
“External Laryngeal Manipulation”
• Backward, Upward,
• Rightward Pressure:
manipulation of the
trachea
• 90% of the time the best
view will be obtained by
pressing over the thyroid
cartilage
Using The Miller Blade
Better in younger children with
a floppy epiglottis
Straight Laryngoscope Blade –
used to pick up the epiglottis
Post-Intubation
•
•
•
•
•
•
ETCO2 assessment for confirmation of placement
Auscultation for bilateral air entry
Placement of ETT documented
ETT secured with tapes
CXR to confirm placement
Place pt on ventilator
Suctioning ETT
• Suction frequency depends on ETT size and pt needs:
• 4.0 i.d. and smaller- a minimum of Q8H unless otherwise
•
ordered
• 4.5 i.d. and greater- prn or as ordered
Suction depth should only be 0.5 cm past the end of ETT
• Determine suction depth by using suction guide or
match number on catheter to number on ETT and
advance 0.5 cm.
Selecting suction catheter
• Use largest size that can pass easily down the ETT
• Ideally not larger than half the diameter of ETT to avoid
causing atelectasis
Instillation
• Normal saline unless otherwise ordered
• Should occur prn not routinely
• Recommended amounts:
Age
< 1 yo*
1-12 yo
13-18 yo
Volume
0.5-1.0 mL
0.5-3.0 mL
0.5-5.0 mL
*total volume is especially
important to limit and
document in infants and
small children
Closed Suction
• Ensure suction is on and set appropriately
• Ensure bagging unit attached to O2, adequate flow, and intact
• Attach sterile syringe with appropriate instillation solution to instillation
port
• Securely hold ETT with one hand and insert catheter to appropriate depth
with the other
• Apply continuous suction while slowly withdrawing the catheter
• Flush catheter by instilling into instillation port while applying suction
• Allow pt to re-oxygenate at least 30 sec between passes
Back-up Plan
• Can’t ventilate or basics not working
• Consider adjuncts (OPA/NPA/positioning)
• Intubation?
• Can’t intubate
• Rescue devices
• Can’t rescue
• Surgical procedure
Basics
• Positioning
• Adjuncts
• OPA - good choice if tolerated
• NPA - easy to tear mucosa
• Effective BVM use is most important skill
• Get a good seal (two person better)
• Don’t over ventilate
• Don’t forget the suction
Intubation -Preparation
• Preoxygenate
• Monitors - ECG, pulse ox
• Sellick’s
• Good basics
• Equipment selection
• Miller vs. Mac
• Cuffed vs. uncuffed
• ETT size
• Positioning
In general, blind techniques not useful in children
Blind Techniques
•
•
•
Exist but need practice for proficiency
Digital intubation
• Small work area
Blind nasotracheal intubation
• Tough angles for tube placement
• Remember anatomic differences
• Contraindicated until >10 years old
Laryngospasm
 common when extubation is done when the
patient is in a semiconscious state
 extubation should be done in a deep
anesthesia or when the protective laryngeal
reflex has returned
• ensure that the patient is recovering
Extubation
is breathing spontaneously with
adequate volumes
• evaluate the patient's ability to
protect his airway by observing
• ensure that the patient is not in a
whether the patient responds
appropriately to verbal commands semiconscious state
• Oxygenate patient with 100
percent high flow O2 for 2 to 3
minutes
• if secretions are suspected in the
tracheobronchial tree, remove
them with a suction catheter
through the lumen of the
endotracheal tube
• deflate the cuff and remove the endotracheal
tube quickly and smoothly during inspiration
• continue to give the patient O2 as required
