AB  - This  procedure  involves  the  creation  of  a  communication  between  airway  and  skin  via  the  cricothyroid  membrane.  An  over-the-needle  catheter  is  then  passed  through  the  membrane.  This  procedure  provides  a  temporary  secure  airway  to  oxygenate  and  ventilate  a  patient  in  severe  respiratory  distress  when  less  invasive  measures  have  failed  or  are  unlikely  to  be  successful.
