  • @DISCIPLEofFIGHTNIGHT The name of the song is SHIT!!!!

  • please tell me the name of this song, thank you

  • thats not it.... a few more steps left out.  and as everyone else stated , a vertical incision is much safer

  • thanks.. for the video.....this safe live...!!!!

  • vertical through skin.

    horizontal through membrane.

    vertical through membrane can result in inward collapse.

  • First, a vertical incision should be done to open the skin and expose the cricoid cartilage. The vertical incision limits the chances of cutting the major blood vessels around the cricoid. Then, a horizontal incision is done to cut through (Between the c-rings of the cricoid) the cartilage to gain airway access.
