so you have a big hunk of chicken/beef/whatever stuck in esophagus.
intubate?
if you consider topicalization/mac how confident are you that the GI doc can just push the food through easily? or watch him stuggle for over an hour, pulling it out piece by piece?
but they do it all the time in the ER, with just mild sedation. is this wise?
i decided to intubate, the gi doc said he hadn't seen it in 30 yrs.
how are you going to defend yourself from a lawyer, when you are asked to explain why is there a piece of chicken in the bronchus? (keep in mind you may be supervising)
