Percutaneous translaryngeal ventilation

Percutaneous translaryngeal ventilation
Other names: Jet ventilation, needle cricothyrotomy, percutaneous transtracheal ventilation
Equipment required (14-gauge angiocatheter and transtracheal jet ventilator)
SpecialtyEmergency medicine

Percutaneous translaryngeal ventilation is the delivery of oxygen to the lungs through an over-the-needle catheter inserted through the skin into the trachea.[1] It may be delivered by high pressure gas source or bag valve mask.[2][3][4]

Percutaneous transtracheal ventilation may be mistaken for transtracheal jet ventilation, which is not considered conventional ventilation and refers to high-frequency ventilation; a low tidal volume ventilation and needs specialized ventilators only available in critical care units.
