Filter by:The aim of our study is to observationally examine our unexpected difficult airway incidence and intervention times. In addition, it is aimed to discuss the clinical effect of a team specialized in airway intervention intervening in cases by call on the success of airway intervention. In this discussion, it is aimed to use the opinion-opposition method.
Comparison of preparation times (in seconds) for emergency airway management (equipment only) with and without a template.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the overall performance and patient outcomes of two video-assisted laryngeal mask airways (VLMAs) devices called Safe and Comfortable (SaCo) VLM and SafeLM® (Safe VLM) versus video laryngoscopy for airway management in adult patients, without an anticipated difficult airway, that are undergoing elective general anesthesia procedures. The main question it aims to answer is: Can both VLMAs improve patient-centered outcomes in the perioperative and postoperative periods in comparison to endotracheal tube (ETT) intubation? Thirty participants will undergo randomized VLMA with either the Safe VLM (15 participants) or the SaCo VLM (15 participants). And 15 participants will be intubated with ETT using video laryngoscopy, as the control group. Researchers will evaluate the efficacy of these two video-assisted devices in adult patients without an anticipated difficult airway in elective general anesthesia procedures. Other patient outcomes and exploratory endpoints will be recorded as well.
There are a significant number of studies identifying risk factors for misplacement of LMAs. However, despite objective data indicating that tracheal intubation is performed inappropriately, such as air leaks, high air pressures, insufficient lung ventilation and single lung ventilation, which are easily identified after tracheal intubation, there are no objective data to define the misplacement of LMAs. The aim of the study was to describe unsuccessful LMA placement in pediatric patients with objective data.
The objective of this study was to investigate the application of new oropharyngeal airway management in patients undergoing painless gastroenteroscopy.To see if it can really solve the problem of airway obstruction during anesthesia.The incidence of hypoxia (Spo2<90%, t>10s) and severe hypoxia (Spo2<85%) during anesthesia and sedation, as well as the incidence of cough and laryngeal spasm, as well as the dose, endoscopist satisfaction, and the incidence of various adverse events were observed.To accumulate clinical experience and reference of anesthesia in obese patients.
Effective respiratory ventilation is achieved by moving the right amount of air to and out of the lungs while keeping the pressures at a safe level. A disposable safety device, Adult Sotair®, was created to improve manual ventilation delivery. In this superiority study, the investigators will perform two-group cross over randomized design to test the superiority of the Adult Sotair® device compared to manual ventilation alone.
Supraglottic airway devices (SAD) provide ventilation of patients requiring respiratory support without tracheal intubation. Therefore, SAD is used to maintain airway during anesthesia in surgeries that do not require intubation. The classical laryngeal mask (cLMA, Intavent Direct, Maidenhead, UK) is an SAD that is available as a more advanced airway method than mask ventilation and a less invasive method than endotracheal intubation. It is used by placing it over the glottis at the level of the larynx and inflating the cuff. The Proseal laryngeal mask (LMA-Proseal™, PLMA, Intavent Orthofix, Maidenhead, UK) is the first supraglottic airway device that is suitable for reuse and includes a gastric drainage channel. I-gel™ (Intersurgical Ltd, Wokingham, UK) is a second-generation laryngeal mask with a soft, gel-like thermoplastic elastomer distal end and no inflatable cuff, designed not to compress the anatomical structures of the larynx and pharynx. Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) has become one of the most important invasive diagnostic procedures for pulmonologists and thoracic surgeons. It is a safe and effective technique for sampling hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes and masses. It is currently accepted as the first choice for histological sampling of the mediastinum in lung cancer staging. The use of SAD to secure the airway in patients undergoing EBUS-TBNA has the advantages of being less invasive than endotracheal intubation and providing better surgical field access. Classical LMA, proseal LMA and I-gel are routinely used airway methods during EBUS-TBNA procedure. The aim of this study is to compare the routinely used SADs in anesthesia management in patients undergoing endobronchial ultrasonography-guided transbronchial needle aspiration in terms of intraoperative efficacy and postoperative complications.
Videolaryngoscopy has become essential in airway management, providing improved glottis visualization and reducing intubation attempts. Proficiency in using videolaryngoscopes, especially those with hyperangulated blades, is crucial for challenging intubation cases. However, successful intubation with hyperangulated blades requires continuous training due to their unique shape. Despite the benefits, the high cost of commercial videolaryngoscopes limits their use, prompting the exploration of a cost-effective alternative-a self-built laryngoscope using a USB borescope. The study aims to compare its training effectiveness with a commercial hyperangulated blade videolaryngoscope, emphasizing accessible training options. The evaluation involves testing both devices on a Laerdal® intubation mannequin, focusing on the time to glottis visualization and the time to complete intubation.
This study will aim to test the accuracy of the ultrasonography measurement of the epiphyseal diameter of the distal radius in the prediction of the size of the cuffed and uncuffed ETT that best fits in children (1-6 years old) in comparison with the traditional age-based formulas.
Effective respiratory ventilation is achieved by moving the right amount of air in and out of the lungs while keeping the pressures at a safe level. A disposable safety device, Adult Sotair®, was created to improve manual ventilation delivery. In this non-inferiority study, we will perform a pre-post study design (single group, within-group comparison) to test the non-inferiority of the Adult Sotair® device compared to mechanical ventilation.
