Background
• Airway complications involving endotracheal tubes
(ETT), (Husain et al., 2012 and Kiekkas et al., 2012) and
tracheostomy patients (Morris, Whitmer and McIntosh, 2013)
are relatively common in critical care.
• Increase in the amount of emergency airway
incidents reported on a cardiac ICU

Education & development
plan
• To develop an educational package to address the
learning and development needs of nurses
relating to incidents involving airway
complications
• Simulation based training to help staff manage
emergency airway situations more effectively.
• Reduce number of reported airway incidents.
• Maintain patient safety and improve patient
outcomes

Aims & Learning ObjectivesAim:
• To ensure nurses receive training and achieve competence in airway
management of the CICU patient.
Learning objectives:
1. Recognise signs of airway complications in the ventilated patient.
2. Demonstrate immediate airway management following dislodgment of the ETT
or tracheostomy.
3. Undertake appropriate care of a patient with an ETT or tracheostomy to
prevent dislodgment.
4. Demonstrate immediate management of tube obstruction for a patient with a
tracheostomy.
5. Demonstrate appropriate skills to assist in emergency intubation.
6. Familiarisation with difficult airway intubation equipment - ‘Unanticipated
Difficult Intubation Strategy - ‘Call for help’ (Dr Nicholas Wharton, consultant Anaesthetist BRI)

Training Sessions
• Airway workshop
• Five emergency airway simulated clinical experiences.
• 15 sessions were delivered, 5/6 nurses attended per session
• A total of 76 CICU nurses have attended the training

Storyboard: Morris Evans 68 yrs
3/52 post CABG x 4 and AVR. Failure to wean from ventilator. Tracheostomy 2/52 ago. He has been
weaned from the ventilator but his trachea has not been removed as his swallow is still unsafe and he is
intermittently agitated and not complying with physio. He is still regularly coughing up large amounts of
thick, yellow sputum. IVAB. PMH: CHD – Angina 10years, Diabetic – Type 2, Hypertension

Scenario scripting
Scenario briefing:
Info for candidate:
You are caring for a level 2 patient in CICU and you hear a commotion in the next bedspace which you go in
to investigate.
Info for facilitator:
CICU nurse needs to recognise the tracheostomy is blocked, Call for help, deflate cuff, recognise patient
continues to deteriorate, remove tracheotomy and cover stoma, ventilate patient with BVM via facemask,
prepare emergency equipment & drugs for re-intubation.
Escape routes:
If the nurse struggles to manage the situation, confederate nurse will present tracheostomy guidelines
Debrief points:
1. Recognition of blocked tracheostomy tube
2. Management of blocked tracheostomy tube following the clinical guidelines
3. Communication – SBAR
4. Teamwork – Getting help, emergency airway equipment and drugs

Feedback
Simulation is a safe,
effective use of learning
and teaching.
All the scenarios used were
good as they are typically
happening in the unit
The different scenarios
were really useful to
improve our confidence
The realism of
the situation.
Small teaching groups –
opportunities to practice
and ask questions.
Very hands on, very
good way of learning
Felt supported and
not too pressured
This session has given me
confidence and to share
information with new
starters.
The debrief after each
scenario was very useful for
both improving confidence
and learning from mistakes.
Simple debrief for each scenario
– good to debrief them
individually… Safe place to talk.

Summary
• Initial emergency airway incidents reported
significantly reduced on CICU, following a simulation
based training program
• Recent increase in reported incidents April – June
2016
• Learner’s confidence levels increased following the
training.
• Feedback from staff suggests they would like more
simulation training.

Future plans
• Education and Simulation based learning for
all new starters to CICU
• Regular updates using a simulation based
learning approach - 6 month
• Future development of simulation based
training sessions for nursing staff on CICU.
• Plans to extended training for the band 6 and
band 7’s
