DO NOT USE THESE TECHNIQUES
The only way I recommend performing cricothyrotomy since 2011 is the Bougie-Aided Cricothyrotomy
Actual Cric with Old Methods from Youtube
My Old Cric Methods
For historical purposes only, here is my video on performing open cricothyrotomy in 3 situations: with a trach set and an assistant, with a trach set when alone, and when you only have a scalpel.

Nice! Love the video. We’ll be making a few of these training models tomorrow to get sorted out on this procedure.

During the Lecture you mentioned a cheap way to practice cricothyrotomy can you post a quick video clip on how to do it.
It is posted. Search for Chris Bond
Awesome stuff. I’ve put most of it back together in a little online course for our trainees. I’d love to hear what you guys think. http://www.thesharpend.org/eeacc-7-surgical-airways
Dear Scott, Not sure if its my computer, but after trying multiple times the audio of your ‘open cric’ lecture (last one on this post) is not working (distorted). could you check this?
working fine on this end
