Can it be done?


Can you effectively bag a pt in a semi-fowlers position?

Well, feel free to contribute to the conversation now. I'm glad I bumped it so you could see it!:D

Oh I was a member of the page back then lol.  We bag people sitting up all the time, especially the exacerbations that we are prepping to intubate, RT will bag them in fowlers while we're drawing up the RSI meds.

yep..no reason not too, there. Intubating sitting up, or semi fowler's makes things a little easier too.
