Errors To Avoid In Suspected Foreign Body CasesCategory: FOREIGN BODIES IN THE AIR AND FOOD PASSAGES Source: A Manual Of Peroral Endoscopy And Laryngeal Surgery 1. Do not reach for the foreign body with the fingers, lest the foreign body be thereby pushed into the larynx, or the larynx be thus traumatized. 2. Do not hold up the patient by the heels, lest a tracheally lodged foreign body be dislodged and asphyxiate the patient by becoming jammed in the glottis. [143] 3. Do not fail to have a roentgenogram made, if possible, whether the foreign body in question is of a kind dense to the ray or not. 4. Do not fail to search endoscopically for a foreign body in all cases of doubt. 5. Do not pass blindly an esophageal bougie, probang, or other instrument. 6. Do not tell the patient he has no foreign body until after roentgenray examination, physical examination, indirect examination, and endoscopy have all proven negative.
