Podcast 747: Food Impaction
Manage episode 317756027 series 1397179
Contributor: Ricky Dhaliwal, MD
Educational Pearls:
- Esophageal food impaction can be managed in the ED prior to calling GI for endoscopy
- Coca-cola, glucagon, benzodiazepines, calcium channel blockers, and dissolved nitroglycerin are all options to try
- For pediatric patients, weighted bougies can be used under sedation to attempt retrieval of the food bolus
- Always evaluate airway status, especially if the patient cannot maintain secretions
