#Oropharynx
hyperangulated videolaryngoscopy pearl:

this is your daily reminder to *look* at the oropharynx while you’re passing the ETT through it.

don’t stare anxiously at the screen while blindly jabbing at the oropharynx, waiting for the tube to magically appear on the screen. #EMIMCC
During hyperangulated #videolaryngoscopy #HAVL the ETT was passed through the soft palate

The authors discuss a ‘blind spot’ of the oropharynx during videolaryngoscopy.

Any thoughts?

These are horrendous infections that track from the oropharynx into nearby vital structures (up to brain, down to mediastinum/heart/vessels).

Horrible way to die 😳
Emmanuel Damas, 56, died at a Scottsdale hospital on Monday due to complications from a tooth infection after being held at the Florence Correctional Center in Arizona. The death was first reported by the Arizona Daily Star.

Crowd funding medical research in the US. Aren’t we proud!! Give if you can. Tax deductible. Papilloma can cause primary cause of cervical cancer, are associated with cancers of the vulva, vagina, penis, anus, and oropharynx as well as genital warts in humans.
The moose in our study area shed papillomavirus with no scarring and no adverse effects on their reproductive capabilities, we want to know how they do that.

You can read up on what we've got so far right here on our website.

HPV does not spontaneously generate in female bodies — it is transmitted there. Nor is it an affliction solely to women.

Virtually everyone is exposed to the virus, which can cause not only cancer of the CERVIX, but also cancers of the PENIS, ANUS, VAGINA, OROPHARYNX, VULVA, ORAL CAVITY & LARYNX.

So I'll look at the oropharynx and say, "Oh man, that looks raw. No wonder you're miserable!" Or up the nose and say, "Jeez, I bet you can't even breathe out of that right side!" But also, "Well, at least your lungs sound clear!" 2/5
