A decision was made to intubate her
-
after we ascertained that her lungs were okay.
-
And how did that intubation go?
-
Terribly at first.
-
I couldn't visualize her cords,
-
and due to her girth, the tube wouldn't pass.
-
She started turning cyanotic,
-
so I decided to bag her to get her O2 sat back up.
-
A decision was then made to perform an emergency tracheostomy.
-
That decision was made by you?
-
- Dr. Villanueva, actually. - Was he there?
-
He was treating the husband nearby.
