Feel for tracheal corrugations with left index in pool of blood, following trachea with finger downward from superficial Adam's apple. 9. Pass knife along index and incise trachea (not too deeply, may cut posterior wall). 10. Don't mind bleeding; but keep middle line and keep head straight; keep head low; don't bother about thyroid gland. 11. Don't expect hiss when trachea is cut if patient has stopped breathing. 12. Start artificial respiration. 13. Amyl nitrite. Oxygen. 14. Practice palpation of the neck until the tracheal landmarks are familiar. 15. Practice above technic, up to point of incision, at every opportunity. 16. Jackson's tracheotomic triangle: A triangulation of the front of the neck intended to facilitate a proper emergency tracheotomy. Apex at suprasternal notch. Sides anterior edge sternomastoids.
