PURPOSE: Our primary objective was to assess the difference in position of the ultrasound-guided landmark of the cricothyroid membrane (CTM) when performed with the supine patient positioned at different head of bed (HOB) elevations.
METHODS: In this prospective observational study of patients presenting to the emergency department with non-life-threatening complaints, subjects underwent ultrasound-guided landmarking of the CTM with HOB elevation at 0°, 30°, and 90°. A linear mixed effects regression model was used to assess the change in the CTM landmark associated with head position. We used a second adjusted linear mixed effects model to assess possible confounding patient factors associated with these changes.
RESULTS: One-hundred and ten patients were enrolled, with a median [interquartile range] age of 39 [29-59] yr and 51:49 female:male ratio. Head of bed elevation at 30° and 90° resulted in a cephalad change in the CTM landmark of 2.7 mm (99% confidence interval [CI], 1.7 to 3.8; P < 0.001) and 4.2 mm (99% CI, 3.2 to 5.3; P < 0.001) respectively compared with the landmark at 0°. Body mass index (BMI) was associated with a change of 4.6 mm (99% CI, 0.5 to 8.7; P = 0.004) for BMI ≥ 30 compared with < 18.5 kg·m-2 The impact of patient age on distance depended on HOB elevation, where patients > 70 yr had a change of 2.6 mm (99% CI, 0.01 to 5.1; P = 0.009) at 90° HOB elevation compared with 30°.
CONCLUSION: The location of the ultrasound-identified surface landmark of the CTM moves in a cephalad direction by changing the position of the HOB from supine 0° to elevation at 30° and 90°. This may be clinically important when attempting cricothyrotomy using a percutaneous (blind) technique, particularly when CTM identification and cricothyrotomy are performed at different head elevations.
