Jackson-Position/Jackson-Haltung Explanation: Jackson-Position Nach Chevalier Jackson (1865 bis 1958), amerikanischer Laryngologe Synonym: Jackson-Haltung Als Jackson-Position bezeichnet man eine Lagerungsposition des Kopfes bei der endotrachealen Intubation. Bei der Jackson-Position wird der Kopf in den Nacken gelegt (Reklination) und nach vorne gezogen beziehungsweise auf einem Kissen gelagert (Elevation), während die Schultern flach auf der Unterlage aufliegen. Auf diese Weise soll eine ideale Annäherung der oralen, der pharyngealen und der laryngealen Achse hergestellt werden. Die Position ermöglicht dann das nahezu unbehinderte Vorschieben des Tubus. http://flexicon.doccheck.com/Jackson-Position Jackson-Haltung Kopfhaltung für die Intubation: Rückwärtsneigung (Reklination) bei gebeugtem Hals (Kissen unter Hinterhaupt) u. flach aufliegenden Schultern. http://gripsdb.dimdi.de/rochelexikon/ro17500/r18904.html To achieve the sniff position (which allows for optimal visualization of the glottic opening), elevate the patient’s head and extend the atlanto-occipital joint. This can be achieved by sliding your free hand (right hand if you are right handed, left hand if you are left handed) beneath the patient’s head and gently lifting it up and towards you. Or, you can gently position the chin up and mouth open before attemting laryngoscopy. http://www.healthsystem.virginia.edu/Internet/Anesthesiology...
