description Introduction: Emergency Cricothyroidotomy (ECT) is a life-saving procedure where the cricothyroid membrane is incised to access the larynx to establish breathing in ‘can’t intubate, can’t ventilate’ situations. This procedure can be taught along with midline neck anatomy to the first semester medical students and their understanding and application of knowledge could be assessed on cadavers. Materials and methods: Total three sessions was organized to expose and assess the first semester medical students about the Emergency Cricothyroidotomy (ECT) procedure. In each session, a two hour long integrated lecture was delivered regarding the surgical anatomy and the procedure. After that, randomly selected students were assigned a cadaver to locate and puncture the cricothyroid membrane with a sharp pointed wide probe. The time was recorded and pre and post session questionnaire was distributed and response was analysed. Result: The total study participants were 154. Analysis revealed knowledge and confidence of performing the procedure was statistically significantly increased (p <0.005) among the participants after the session. 90% participants successfully pierced the cricothyroid membrane as a team and the average time was 2 minutes 35 seconds. The most students gave a ‘good’ or ‘very good’ rating of this session. Conclusion: The medical students should be exposed to emergency life-saving procedures in relation to their anatomy course in earlier days of medical school. This could make them aware and oriented about the procedures which could be beneficial during their clinical training.

Introducción: La cricotiroidotomía de emergencia (TEC) es un procedimiento que salva vidas en el que se realiza una incisión en la membrana cricotiroidea para acceder a la laringe y establecer la respiración en escenarios de "no se puede intubar, no se puede ventilar". Este procedimiento se puede enseñar junto con la anatomía de la línea media del cuello a los estudiantes de medicina del primer semestre y su comprensión y aplicación del conocimiento podría evaluarse mediante la práctica de habilidades en cadáveres. Materiales y métodos: Se organizaron tres sesiones en total para exponer y evaluar a los estudiantes de medicina del primer semestre sobre el procedimiento de cricotiroidotomía de emergencia (TEC). En cada sesión se impartió una charla integrada de dos horas sobre la anatomía quirúrgica y el procedimiento. Después de eso, a los estudiantes seleccionados al azar se les asignó un cadáver para localizar y perforar la membrana cricotiroidea con una sonda ancha puntiaguda y afilada. Se registró el tiempo y se distribuyó el cuestionario pre y post sesión y se analizó la respuesta. Resultado: El total de participantes del estudio fue de 154. El análisis reveló que el conocimiento y la confianza en la realización del procedimiento aumentó de manera estadísticamente significativa (p <0.05) entre los participantes después de la sesión. El 90% de los participantes fueron perforados con éxito la membrana cricotiroidea como equipo y el tiempo promedio fue de 2 minutos y 35 segundos. La mayoría de los estudiantes calificaron esta sesión como "buena" y "muy buena". Conclusión: Los estudiantes de medicina deben estar expuestos a procedimientos de emergencia que salvan vidas en relación con su curso de anatomía en los primeros días de la escuela de medicina. Esto podría sensibilizarlos y orientarlos sobre los procedimientos que podrían ser beneficiosos durante su formación clínica.   Asociación Argentina de Anatomía Clínica (Argentine Association of Clinical Anatomy) 2021-11-26 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/anatclinar/article/view/35049 10.31051/1852.8023.v13.n3.35049 Revista Argentina de Anatomía Clínica (Argentine Journal of Clinical Anatomy); Vol. 13 No. 3 (2021): Nov 2021; 124-130 Revista Argentina de Anatomía Clínica; Vol. 13 Núm. 3 (2021): Nov 2021; 124-130 1852-8023 10.31051/1852.8023.v13.n3 eng https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/anatclinar/article/view/35049/35812 Derechos de autor 2021 Anasuya Ghosh, Subhramoy Chaudhury http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0
