You have just inserted a Combitube in a 59-year-old cardiac arrest patient. You attach the bag-mask device to the pharyngeal (blue) tube, begin ventilations, and note the presence of bilaterally equal breath sounds, absent epigastric sounds, and visible chest rise. You should:
A) perform laryngoscopy to visualize placement of the Combitube. B) continue to ventilate and use additional confirmation techniques. C) continue ventilating the patient at a rate of 10 to 12 breaths/min. D) ventilate through the clear tube and auscultate all four lung fields.
