thyrotomy. Cummings Otolaryngology denes a
cricothyrotomy as “the establishment of a surgical opening into the airway through the cricothyroid membrane (CTM) and placement of a
tube for ventilation” [19]. The importance of
understanding the diagnosis and management of
a difcult airway and emergent treatment is critical to the practicing surgeon, as operative
catastrophes related to inadequate airway and
ventilation have continuously been found to be
some of the leading causes of serious and lifethreatening intraoperative and perioperative
complications [1, 20, 21].
25.3.2.2 Clinical/Diagnosis
ASA practice guidelines acknowledge the variation of denitions of “difcult airway” in the literature and dene this term as “the clinical
situation in which a conventionally trained anesthesiologist experiences difculty with facemask
ventilation of the upper airway, difculty with
tracheal intubation, or both.” They provide a
description of a “failed intubation” as “placement of the endotracheal tube fails after multiple
attempts.” Similarly, one could think of a “failed
airway” as the failure to achieve a controlled airway after multiple attempts by an airway expert
(or an experienced anesthesiologist). Failed airway, resulting from an inability to intubate and
ventilate, has been estimated to occur in the
range of 0.01–2 per 10,000 patients with difcult
endotracheal intubation ranging between 5 and
35 per 10,000 patients and difcult mask ventilation at an incidence of about 5% [19]. A failed
airway can quickly lead to anoxic brain injury
and death. The surgeon and operating room team
are encouraged to be prepared to quickly and
accurately diagnose and address this situation
and provide a mechanism for adequate ventilation and oxygenation when less invasive techniques have failed. A key piece of information in
the management of a failed airway is whether the
patient is able to receive adequate ventilation
(such as bag-mask ventilation) while further
decisions are being made (ranging from awakening the patient to considering alternative
approaches to securing the airway). Below, we
will describe and illustrate the necessary steps
for management of a failed airway including creating a surgical airway via a cricothyrotomy
while understanding that other invasive techniques may also be considered by the team (e.g.,
needle cricothyroidotomy).
25.3.2.3 Treatment
In a failed airway scenario, immediately calling
for help, designating a crisis manager/leader, and
requesting a difcult airway cart and video laryngoscope are all essential steps. If ventilation is
inadequate and an experienced anesthesiologist
has failed to achieve a controlled airway after
multiple attempts, the surgeon should communicate with the team and prepare for the possibility
that a surgical airway will be urgently needed.
While the anesthesiologist continues to attempt
to optimize ventilation, possibly through placement of a laryngeal mask airway, alternative
supraglottic devices, or other approaches, the surgeon should begin to consider what is available to
prep the neck (such as the prep solution available
for the surgical case) and how to obtain supplies
needed for an urgent surgical airway. Cummings
describes a modied “rapid ve-step technique”
which is “simple to learn and faster in obtaining a
surgical airway.” This technique is comprised of
(1) Identifying landmarks and stabilizing the airway, (2) making a vertical skin incision, (3) making a horizontal incision through the cricothyroid
membrane, (4) inserting a clamp to spread and
elevate the airway, and (5) inserting a tracheostomy tube or small endotracheal tube. The
Manual of Emergency Airway Management provides detailed illustrations of the technique used
for an emergency cricothyrotomy (Figs. 25.1,
25.2, 25.3, 25.4, 25.5, 25.6, 25.7) [22]. (Used
with permission from Walls RM, Murphy MF,
editors. Manual of emergency airway management; Fourth Edition. Philadelphia: Lippincott
Williams & Wilkins; 2013).
While ventilation status may change over the
course of treatment, which alters the acuity of the
situation, a surgeon who communicates well and is
prepared for the possibility of a surgical airway can
be a life-saving member of this critical scenario.

25.3.3.1 Hypotension andHypoxemia
Introduction
Hypotension and hypoxemia present a particularly difcult situation for operating room
teams due to their broad differential and subsequent difculty for accurate and efcient diagnosis and treatment. In these situations, clinical
judgment relative to the patient’s history, phys-

ical exam ndings, anesthetics given, and operating room course is key to adequate assessment
and optimal treatment. When faced with situations where the diagnosis is unclear, especially
when multiple abnormalities in signs and
symptoms are observed, it is important to
understand the abnormality representing the
primary problem as this will prevent unnecessary or invasive procedures that can cause harm
to the patient or delay of appropriate treatment.
Within the incident reports for 4000 cases of
the Australian Incident Monitoring Study
(AIMS), 438 reports included the words “hypotension,” “cardiovascular collapse,” or “cardiac
arrest” (~11%), and 706 contained the word
“desaturation” (~18%) [23, 24]. In both hypotension and hypoxemia, there were multiple
potential causes for the observed abnormality,
with other associated signs and symptoms. The
use of a structured algorithm was considered to
have resulted in a better and/or more prompt
resolution in 6% of hypotension cases and 15%
of hypoxemic cases. It is known that both of
these operative catastrophes have the potential
to result in irreversible damage to organs leading to a high degree of morbidity and mortality.
Thus, this time-critical need for efcient and

effective treatment highlights the importance
for the surgeon to have a structured set of key
steps to guide the differential diagnosis and
treatment management considerations inherent
to unclear/sustained hypotension/hypoxemia.
Clinical/Diagnosis andTreatment
Due to the broad differential for these common
scenarios, we present this section in the format of
crisis checklists that have been adopted by
aninstitution. Figures 25.8 and 25.9 are examples

25.3.4 Other Emergencies
As noted above, the goal of this chapter was to
familiarize the surgeon with some common operative catastrophes that every surgeon should
know. However, we hope that this chapter also
encourages the reader to obtain familiarity with
other operative emergencies that simply could
not be covered due to the space constraints.
Hemorrhage, for example, is an operating room
emergency that crosses many different disciplines (surgery, obstetrics, anesthesia, nursing,
hematology, and potentially trauma, vascular,
interventional radiology, and other specialties)
and is often presented with dedicated chapters in
and of themselves. For this specic emergency,
we provide Fig.25.10, which is an example of

In the suggested reading section, we refer to
some essential resources for emergency cognitive
aids specic to the O.R. environment. For example, for malignant hyperthermia, an exceptionally
rare but life-threatening event, there exist a crisis
checklist [

the pediatric population [http://www.pedsanes-

tive catastrophes that they are likely to encounter
over the course of their practice. The practice patterns of the surgeon and institution are relevant
considerations (i.e., certain catastrophes may be
more common for the orthopedic surgeon, otolaryngologist, gynecological surgeon, pediatric surgeon, and others).
25.4 Current Controversies/
Future Directions
At present, there are no guidelines mandating
crisis checklists or emergency manuals be available or used during patient care [26]. This point
is amplied by existing cultural perceptions
which attribute the use of cognitive aids to less
clinical competence and overall skills by healthcare providers. A survey done at the University
of California, San Francisco, found that one
is also available at: www.projectcheck.org/crisis. Image
compressed to meet publication requirements. For native
version, see URL provided. Accessed April 23, 2017
potential reason for providers to not use checklists was the “perception of them being less
skilled because they needed to use a ‘cheat
sheet.’” Survey results showed 17% of providers
felt uncomfortable using a checklist in front of
their team members and only 45% of providers
feeling comfortable [27]. Additionally, those
reporting uncomfortable feelings were more
likely to have fewer years of experience.
Addressing these issues necessitates cultural
shifts and implementation from leaders within
the eld to foster a culture that embraces the use
of checklists and emergency manuals. To this
end the Emergency Manuals Implementation
Collaborative (EMIC) was formed to encourage
the use of manuals and address barriers to implementation and dissemination by providing free
access to multiple versions of emergency aids at
www.emergencymanuals.org. Ultimately, these
tools must be readily available to be used in cri-

sis situations and implementation is a key step in
ensuring availability and appropriate use. This
requires both an awareness of availability and
training with the use of crisis checklist and emergency manuals [28].
An additional point of controversy in the use
of crisis checklists/emergency manuals suggests
that the doctors’ use of a cognitive aid may cause
providers to become reliant on these cognitive
aids, to the point where clinical judgment is no
longer used and xation on one particular course
of action can lead to a lack of exibility and delay
in appropriate care [29]. As we have stated
throughout this chapter, all clinical signs and
symptoms associated with the operative catastrophe must be interpreted in the context of patient
history, physical exam, and current patient presentation, such that clinical judgment continues
to be a primary driver of ultimate decisionmaking. In this setting, cognitive aids are implemented as an additional tool in the surgeon’s
armory, utilized in situations where high stress or
high stakes may limit memory and recall of key
steps and negatively impact team dynamics.
As with anything else in medicine, there is no
“one solution ts all” approach. The recommendations presented in this chapter must be taken in
context with the culture and resources of individual institutions and adapted for best use, prior
to the occurrence of such events. Surgeons play a
unique role in coordinating and executing care
for patients in the operating room, as they are
tasked with the responsibility of not only the
knowledge, clinical expertise, and technical skills
to treat patients but must also serve a leadership
role in managing and maintaining successful
team dynamics, incorporating effective communication skills, assigning appropriate task management, maintaining situational awareness, and
ensuring successful team decision-making [30].
Take-Home Points
• Operative catastrophes are rare events
that require time-sensitive diagnostic
and management decisions to be
recalled by even the most experienced
I. Franco et al.
clinicians under highly stressful
conditions.
Under stressful circumstances that come
•
from rare life-threatening events, failure
to adhere to best practices can be common when relying on memory alone. In
these cases, cognitive aids can serve as
an additional tool in the surgeon’s
armory, utilized in situations where high
stress or high stakes may limit memory
and recall of key steps and negatively
impact team dynamics.
•
Clinical judgment relative to the
patient’s history, physical exam ndings, anesthetics given, and operating
room course is key to adequate assessment and optimal treatment.
• In any operative catastrophe, the rst
steps should include calling for help,
designating a crisis leader/checklist
reader, and requesting additional
resources needed.
• Crisis checklists and emergency manuals should be adapted to reect the most
up-to-date guidelines available and consistently be evaluated for effectiveness
of content, design, and implementation,
ensuring that these tools meet the needs
of the institution and practicing
providers.
As such, we present the topics in this chapter to
equip the surgeon with evidence-based guidelines and tools to successfully address operative
catastrophes and feel prepared to lead teams in
these high-stress and high-stakes situations.
