Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Sorry! It is NOT Sellick's maneuver. Sellick's maneuver is done on the cricoid cartilage for the purpose of preventing regurgitation by closing off the esophagus. BURP is done above that, on the thyroid cartilage for the purpose of moving the airway structure backward and upward so as to make the vocal cords come into view.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Back Up Right Pressure. Toward the patient's back, up toward the head, to the right pressure. This is a technique used for intubation. The person performing the intubation uses this technique to visualize the cords. Lea Ann Bobbitt, RN, CCP Subject: B U R P ?
