1
Q

What are the angulation angles and the field of view angles for a 2.7 diameter FFOB?

A

Angulation angles =130 -180 Field of view = 90°

2
Q

What lubricant spray is used for FFOBs?

A

Dimethylpolysiloxane

3
Q

What are the components of an FFOB?

A

Light source angulation control injection and suction ports Instrument ports Suction attachment

4
Q

What should you always do when you’re setting up the F FOB

A

You should wear gloves never use bare hands

5
Q

How should you clear the channel when cleaning Up the FFOB

A

Clear the channel With Saline suctioning

6
Q

What three directional movements are possible with the FFOB?

A

1) Longitudinal movement along the long axis allows you to enter and leave the airway 2) Rotational movement around the long axis permits you to move through approximately 180° either clockwise or counterclockwise 3) Angulation movement using the angulation control provides flexion and extension of the tip from 90°- 180° in opposite Directions

7
Q

If the FFOB has an outside diameter of 2.8 mm what field of view, in degrees, will it allow?

A

120°

8
Q

What type of breathing circuit connections are available with an FFOB

A

Mask LMA ETT EBT (endobronchial tube)

9
Q

What techniques can be used to create air space for an FFOB

A

Jaw thrust Pulling the tongue out of the mouth with either section for a gauze

10
Q

What type of catheter can be used with the FFOB as a guide for the ETT into the glottis

A

Aintree Catheter

11
Q

CDC disinfection guidelines for endoscopes

A

To prevent the spread of health-care–associated infections, all heat-sensitive endoscopes (e.g., gastrointestinal endoscopes, bronchoscopes, nasopharygoscopes) must be properly cleaned and, at a minimum, subjected to high-level disinfection after each use. High-level disinfection can be expected to destroy all microorganisms, although when high numbers of bacterial spores are present, a few spores might survive

12
Q

A

ETT introducer

13
Q

According to Dr. Hall’s slides plan D would include what for the difficult airway

A

HPOV/retrograde Guide wire assisted intubation
