Episode 38 - Cricothyrotomy Considerations with Scott Weingart

Dr. Dennis Kim Season 2

Dr. Scott Weingart joins us on Rounds to discuss a topic that's of great interest to the both of us - surgical cricothyroidotomy. Tune in to hear how Scott's approach to performing a cric has evolved over time and why "trauma surgeons are the worst people to learn crics from?!" From  3 strikes and your out to the use of bougies, this episode covers all things cric.
