Filter by:The purpose of the study is to assess the impact of a personalized intubation planning tool, the Personalized INtubation Safety (PINS) Bundle on intubation procedural safety and clinical outcomes among patients intubated in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) setting.
The investigators' overall objective is to assess the incidence of critical events related to tracheal intubation at all international study sites. Furthermore, the study will investigate the used intubation techniques and identify possible improvement measures to increase patient safety.
The goal of this interventional study is to compare the I-gel laryngeal mask, a type of supraglottic airway device (SGA), with endotracheal intubation in terms of safety, ease of use and adverse side effects for patients during gynecologic laparoscopic procedures at the Brussels Fertility Center in Brussels, Belgium.
The aim of this study is to review/identify the existing definition and management strategies for a physiologically difficult airway (PDA), to generate expert consensus on the various aspects of managing a patient with a PDA using the Delphi method, and to provide guidance to clinicians worldwide on safe tracheal intubation practices in patients with PDA to help improve patient outcomes.
The goal of this clinical trial to study the efficacy of suction catheter guided technique and conventional technique during nasotracheal intubation. The main question are - How effective of the use of a suction catheter guided ETT in reducing bleeding during nasotracheal intubation? - Does the use of a suction catheter guided ETT can improve its navigability through the nasal passage and reduce nasal passage time?
SaCo videolaryngeal mask airway is a novel third generation supraglottic device allowing for continuous observation of entrance to larynx via inserted in special channel videoscope connected with cable with external monitor. In obese patients airway management can be difficult so use of new devices that improve safety and potentially efficacy of airway management is indicated. In prospective observational study the SaCo VLM will be evaluated in terms of maintaining airway patency and effectiveness of intubation through it's lumen in morbidly obese scheduled for elective general surgery under general anesthesia.
During induction of general anaesthesia physiological breathing stops and needs to be artificially established with facemask ventilation, and finally tracheal intubation or placement of a supraglottic airway. During the airway management, when lungs are not or only poorly ventilated, there is a risk for atelectasis. These atelectasis can contribute to respiratory adverse events (e.g. pulmonary infection or respiratory insufficiency) during or after general anaesthesia. High-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) is the administration of heated, humidified and blended air/oxygen mixture via a nasal cannula at rates ≥ 2 L/kg/min. HFNO used during airway management (i.e. intubation) can extend the tolerance for apnea, the time from end of physiological breathing until artificial ventilation is established. The main objective of this study is thus to investigate the variations of poorly ventilated lung units (i.e., silent spaces) as a surrogate for functional residual capacity measured by electrical impedance tomography to dynamically assess atelectasis formation and regression under apnoeic oxygenation with different flow rates.
Using a new device, the TrachFlush, the aim of this pilot study is to investigate whether secretions can be removed at the patient's current ventilator settings, or whether pressures and durations considered at the maximal end of clinical practice are required, so as to push secretions around the cuff. The study is a pilot study to investigate the settings required to ensure clinical efficacy of the technology, prior to large scale clinical studies.
Laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation are necessary for effective control of airway and ventilation, but it has deleterious effects such as hypertension and disrhythmia
New pain assessment parameter, called the Variation Coefficient of Pupillary Diameter (VCPD) described. This parameter allows evaluating the pain of patients during uterine contractions in obstetrical labor, and postoperatively in recovery room. This parameter also allows evaluating the level of pain in Intensive Care Unit (ICU), in intubated or tracheotomized patients moderately sedated (Riker score 3 or 4).
