Based on the simple description of "stab, twist, bougie, tube", the ScalpelCric is meant to facilitate the execution of eFONA (emergency Front Of Neck Access) in a CICO situation (Cannot Intubate – Cannot Oxygenate). The set is packed in a specific sterile pouch with each component organised in the order of use. This can be important at the critical time of the procedure.
