Emergency Cricothyrotomy in a Harsh Environment: A Case Report of Complete Airway Obstruction Following a Lightning Strike.
A lightning strike is an extreme event with the highest mortality rate among electrical injuries. Death from a lightning strike is caused by either cardiac arrest or respiratory arrest. It is rare for upper airway damage to occur, but in these cases, airway control is recommended. If transoral intubation is unsuccessful, an emergency cricothyrotomy should be considered. Our case report describes an emergency cricothyroidotomy performed in a harsh environment on a mountain 2300 m above sea level on a patient with extensive burns of his supraglottic structures, after being directly hit by a lightning strike.
期刊介绍:
A & A Case Reports, our new online journal publishing Case Reports, related Editorial Commentary, and Correspondence. Anesthesia & Analgesia 1 and Anesthesiology 2 recently announced that they were suspending publication of Case Reports. One reason is that Case Reports typically reduce the Impact Factor of a journal because they are rarely cited. Regardless of the merits of Impact Factor as a metric of journal worth, journals and their editors necessarily consider Impact Factor in strategic planning. At the same time, Case Reports are appreciated by readers for describing “real life” management of difficult or unusual cases not often encountered by practitioners. In a recent issue of Anesthesia & Analgesia, Steven Shafer1 identified many Case Reports whose publication launched productive careers dedicated to solving the puzzle posed by an unusual observation in a single patient.
