Filter by:The aim of the study was to compare intraocular pressure, intubation time, throat pain and hemodynamic variables using direct or videolaryngoscopy under general anesthesia requiring endotracheal intubation
Comparison of various videolaryngoscope devices (Vividtrac™ and KingVision™) and direct laryngoscopy with Macintosh blade regarding laryngoscopy time, intubation time, intubation success rate, percentage of visible glottic opening (POGO score) in elective and acute clinical anaesthesiology practice.
The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy of video coaching training for neonatology attending providers on tracheal intubation procedural outcomes in neonatal ICUs.
One lung ventilation (OLV) is required during thoracic procedures such as lung and esophagus surgery. three technique can be employed. (1) placement of a double-lumen bronchial tube (DLT); (2) use of a single-lumen tracheal tube (SLT) in conjunction with a bronchial blocker; (3) insertion of a conventional SLT into a main bronchus. Flexible fiberoptic intubation with SLT is well established technique for anticipated or unexpected difficult intubation. But, little is known about flexible fiberoptic intubation with DLT. The investigators compared insertion time over fiberoptic bronchoscope between SLT with bronchial blocker and DLT in patients undergoing thoracic surgery.
Comparison of Intubation using Pentax (Pentas AWS, Pentax, Tokyo, Japan) and Macintoch in pediatric patients
The use of videolarygoscopy (VL) as first choice for tracheal intubation versus direct laryngoscopy (DL) is a matter of debate. These two methods were compared in several studies. Videolaryngoscopes may reduce the number of failed intubations, particularly among patients presenting with a difficult airway. They improve the glottic view and may reduce airway trauma. DM is accepted as a risk factor for difficult intubation. The aim of this study is to compare VL to DL in adult patients requiring tracheal intubation for anesthesia, in terms of intubation success, glottic view quality, intubation failure, intubation time, conversion to another laringoscopy method and adverse outcomes related to tracheal intubation.
Using a combination of the video-laryngoscope with the disposable fiber-optic bronchoscope (aScope III) is a feasible way to facilitate successful intubation in a timely manner, in patients with predicted difficult airway due to tumors in the oral cavity, pharynx or larynx To test the hypothesis that combination of video-laryngoscope with the fiber-optic bronchoscope is superior to video-laryngoscope alone for intubation of patients with oral cavity, pharyngeal or laryngeal pathologies undergoing surgery
This is a survey of airway codes, which are emergency mobile phone requests for anaesthetic help to manage acute airway crises in the hospital (out of theatre, out of Surgical Intensive Care Unit, SICU). The anaesthetists are doctors trained in advance airway management. Patients in the hospital may suffer airway crises e.g. airway obstruction or need for tracheal intubation (insertion of breathing tube) for various reasons. The on call SICU anaesthetists responds to the airway code by attending the patient in need and managing the patient at their own discretion. Airway management will depend on the anaesthetist's knowledge, skills and experience. it will also depend on the available airway equipment. We plan to evaluate airway codes for a 24 month period. Parameters include: type of incident; patient factors (including airway assessment); type of equipment used; anaesthetic drugs used; airway management chosen by the attending anaesthetist; and, airway complications.
The primary purpose of this study is to compare with a non-inferiority randomised study the new laryngeal tube (Intubating Laryngeal Tube Single-Disposable - iLTS-D) to the well-established Intubating Larygeal Mask Airway (ILMA/ Fastrach) for the success rate and time for intubation under fiberoptic control. Secondary purposes are success rates and times for ventilation for both devices and finally success rate of gastric tube placement.
The intubating Laryngeal Tube Suction-Disposable is a new version of the Laryngeal Tube-Suction. It has a ventilator channel with a 13.5mm internal diameter, which enables the passage of an Endotracheal Tube either blindly or with fiberoptic guidance.This study was designed to assess the success rate of blind and fiberoptic endotracheal intubation using iLTS-D, in comparison with the and Ambu® AuraGain™ in adult patients.
