Filter by:Neurogenic dysphagia occurs with disruption of neurological systems or processes involved in the execution of coordinated and safe swallowing. It is common in patients with neurological diseases, in particular in patients treated in Intensive Care Units (ICU) who are intubated (up to 62%) and / or tracheotomised (up to 83%). Dysphagia is one of the most common and most dangerous symptoms of many neurological diseases. In addition, neurogenic dysphagia can have a significant impact on quality of life, medication efficacy, and malnutrition. Dysphagia is currently treated conservatively on evidence-based exercises, individually adapted to each patient. In the recent years pharyngeal electrostimulation has been established and shown a positive impact on outcome. In fact, this type of therapy has not only become an addition to the existing therapy, but an important alternative for patients difficult to treat by other means. The Phagenyx® is a medical device, which has lately been used more frequently in multiple hospitals for treatment of neurogenic dysphagia. For nearly two decades pharyngeal electrostimulation has been further developed and optimised. This therapy initiates changes in the swallowing motor cortex through neuroplasticity as well as local changes in peripheral sensory architecture associated with swallowing. Bath and colleagues (2020) recently reported the efficacy of pharyngeal electrostimulation (Phagenyx®) in various neurological conditions. As a result, of current published studies, the use of pharyngeal electrostimulation probe, in selected patients, with neurological diseases with moderate to severe neurogenic dysphagia will be evaluated. This trial will initially start as quality assurance project with the aim to extent it into a monocentric based register study. The Investigators aim to validate the effectiveness of pharyngeal electrostimulation for the treatment of moderate to severe neurogenic dysphagia by systematically recording specific dysphagia-relevant parameters. At present, it is still uncertain to what extent patients with neurogenic dysphagia in the context of a non-acute neurological disease could benefit from this method. The research questions: Does the use of the pharyngeal electrostimulation probe have an influence on the outcome of dysphagia in patients with moderate to severe neurogenic dysphagia? How long after therapy, can the use of the pharyngeal electrostimulation probe lead to oral food intake and/or removal of a tracheal cannula?
Either uses two different endotracheal tubes to pass the nasal cavity and to compare the effects on the secretion and bleeding volume of patients during intubation to facilitate nasotracheal tube advancement.
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 as a pandemic in April 2020. COVID-19 first discovered in Wuhan, China in December 2019. As of May 4th, 2020, the total number of patients in China was 82,880, the number of deaths was 4,633, the death rate was 3.7%. In Indonesia, until May 4th 2020, there were 11,192 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with a total of 845 deaths. High transmission and death due to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, patients with respiratory failure symptoms were suspected of having COVID-19 until declared negative. A potential and continuing threatening complication is acute respiratory failure. Patient with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) require both respiratory support and oxygen therapy. The choosing of endotracheal intubation is generally indicated in moderate to severe ARDS. Apart from respiratory failure, endotracheal intubation is also commonly performed in patients undergoing surgical procedures under general anesthesia for the management of the patient's airway. To prevent transmission to medical personnel, intubation is carried out using PPE according to the guidelines. Guidance for intubation in COVID-19 patients is recommended to use a video laryngoscope because it offers several advantages such as assisting glottis visualization and making the intubation operator more distant from the patient's mouth when compared to direct laryngoscopes. This study aims to see the effect of using PPE and the type of laryngoscope on the intubation process carried out in the COVID-19 pandemic. This study is a preliminary study aimed at seeing the effect size of the recommended PPE use on the process and success of intubation.
Uses the video stylet with different angulation to assist the nasotracheal tube passing the nasal cavity, oropharynx and advanced into the trachea.

The investigators decided to conduct a longitudinal study that compares the pulmonary tomographic patterns found in patients with viral pneumonia (i.e. influenza H1N1 and SARS-CoV-2) at a regional hospital. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the association between the radiological CT pattern and the need for invasive mechanical ventilation. A secondary aim is to assess the mortality within the first 28 days of intensive care unit admission.
This study is being done to compare hemodynamic response upon endotracheal intubation using either conventional laryngoscopy with Macintosh blade versus C-Mac video laryngoscope in patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting without anticipated difficult airway.
This study evaluates the learning and performance of tracheal intubation by first year anaesthesia trainee in Nepalese population using either Airtraq or Macintosh laryngoscopes.
Examining the effectiveness of cricoid pressure using ultrasound imaging. Pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents during tracheal intubation, although rare in pediatrics, is a potentially catastrophic complication of anesthesia. Cricoid pressure is applied during rapid sequence induction to occlude the esophagus and prevent aspiration of gastric contents. Accumulating evidence in adults suggests that cricoid pressure often is not effective, either because the esophagus normally lies lateral to the cricoid cartilage, or because downward pressure on the cricoid cartilage laterally displaces (rather than compresses) the esophagus. The investigator proposes to examine the effectiveness of cricoid pressure in children in the peri-operative setting using non-invasive ultrasound imaging. Using this approach, the investigator will investigate the normal anatomical relationship of the esophagus and the cricoid cartilage, as well as how cricoid pressures influences this relationship. Further, the investigator will examine whether alternatives to downward cricoid pressure, such as laterally directed pressure, are more effective at occluding the esophagus.
