Prehospital sugical airway procedural success is highly variable, ranging from 17% to 93% [58–61]. Survival after perhospital surgical airway placement is poor, ranging from 15% to 37%. Limited data describe the complications associated with prehospital cricothyrotomy [62–65]. Some medical directors question the role of cricothyrotomy in the prehospital setting, citing the difficulty of the procedure and the rarity of the intervention with associated need to maintain appropriate clinical skills.
