Establishing of an airway 1 (for paramedics, doctors). Help me with correction please Hi guys. My fried is a paramedic and she has written an abstract for her Master Thesis (in Czech). She asked me to translate it to English, so I have tried. I must say, that it was really hard for me, as I am not paramedic and I do not understand the topic well. I would like to ask you to read my translation and write me, if it is understandable for native speaker (even better if you are paramedic or familiar with the topic). As the text is too long for one notebook entry, I had to devide it in more parts.Thank you for help This thesis deals with the possibilities of establishing an airway in terms of pre-hospital emergency care. Breathing is one of the basic and very important vital functions necessary for life. Securing the airway is one of the most important achievements in emergency care with which we meet mostly at the sudden, acute situations. Effective establishment the airway means effective ventilation and adequate oxygenation of tissues. Establishment the airways is not always possible by usual method, and therefore we should have prepared an alternative tool that would help us resolve difficult situation. The theoretical part deals with the complex issue of establishing an airway. The first chapter is focused on the history, and we can find out how the methods for restoring and security ofrespiration were developing over time. Than there is a brief acquaintance with the work of the medical rescue service and the competence of paramedics in the Czech Republic. In other chapters is described the anatomy of the upper and lower respiratory tract of an adult. The following chapters are devoted directly to secure the airway, airway obstruction and its most common cause of airway protection without the use of tools and equipment. For security airways without tools is mentioned revision of the oral cavity, head bent backward, triple maneuver and Heimlichovým and Gordon maneuver. For tools used to secure the airway is described the airways and endotracheal intubation and for alternative non-invasive tools to protect the airway, I included Combitube, laryngeal tube and laryngeal mask. The last chapter is devoted to the invasive techniques of airway protection, and coniopunction coniotomy. In this charter is also mentioned one of the latest invasive methods, Buzi assisted coniotomy.
