Suctioning a Patient (Open Sterile Technique) Procedure

In this video, George demonstrates how to perform sterile open suctioning of a patient's endotracheal tube. The same technique could also be used on any patient that has an artificial airway and various patient populations.
Please note that this procedure has many different variations or adaptations to it so please consult the procedural guide in your health care center prior to suctioning a patient

Physiotherapist can do this work

Although accurate, I suggest you film this a) with better lighting, b) closer video, c) positioned to the side of the patient like is typical in the ICU. Only an anesthesia provider would be behind the patient. Finally, hyperoxygenation with 100% O2 for 2 minutes is often done.

Hi: I haven't made any videos recently (as I've taken on more work) but plan on creating more quite soon. Thanks for watching them.

You are an awesome teacher

What considerations you should take with the suction procedures in Covid patiens?

[@kmctt]

In England they would wear another glove that would further ensure sterilisation. The angles on this could also be better although you seem like a very good educator
