    Author: Kohler P, van Ackern K, Huber RM.
    Journal: Anasth Intensivther Notfallmed; 1985 Aug; 20(4):213-5. PubMed ID: 4073416.
    Abstract:
    The successful clinical application of a new emergency cricothyrotomy device is reported. We used it first in a patient who was in acute respiratory insufficiency and could not be intubated because of a large tumour in the pharynx. Emphasis is placed on the description of the easy handling especially for less experienced physicians and of the atraumatic procedure.
