Filter by:The aim of this observational study is to explore and compare patients' experiences of asleep and awake fibreoptic intubation using a semi qualitative patient questionnaire. In particular, investigators will investigate the occurrence of negative experiences, such as distress and discomfort.
Infrared light is applied to the front of the neck of patients for awake flexible optical intubation. The infrared light can be detected by the camera at the tip of the flexible video-bronchoscope. The flexible scope is introduced into the trachea with or without the aid of the blinking infra red light and the ease of placement of the flexible scope is studied.
The non-intubated video-assisted thoracic surgery (NIVATS) can avoid intubation-related complications and for a smoother postoperative recovery. Successful results are accumulating not only from anecdotal case reports of difficult and high-risk patients not suitable for an intubated general anesthesia. However, in spite of safety and feasibility, there were still three main concerns: 1. how to maintain spontaneous breathing with optimal anesthetic depth; 2. How to analyze the components of general anesthesia and regional anesthesia; 3.what's the benefits on the recovery and the risk of aspiration risk with NIVATS? The traditional monitor or methods such as BIS system, SpO2, and follow-up aspiration signs could not offer sufficient evidence to resolve the three main concerns. Recently, there have been many new methods to monitor these concerns. The density spectral array (DSA) BIS system could analyze the change of the anesthetic component. The ORI is a dimensionless index that reflects oxygenation in the moderate hyperoxic range (PaO2 100-200 mmHg).
For tracheal intubation with a lightwand, adequate bending angle was not exactly investigated. The purpose of the study is compare three bending angles of lightwands for safe and efficient tracheal intubation.
This study evaluates the effect of head and neck movement in children on endotracheal tube (ETT) tip displacement undergoing head-and-neck surgeries. The tube-tip displacement will be measured using flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Ambu KingVision videolaryngoscope performs as well as direct laryngoscopy for intubating small children and infants.
Hypothesis: Nosten® device is able to reduce the time of underinflated balloon and removes excess pressure. This device may thus reduce the risk of ventilator-acquired pneumonia (VAP) and early tracheal lesions resulting from intubation with decreased discomfort, morbidity, and nursing workload. The main objective of the investigators is to show that Nosten® device is more effective than monitoring and manual inflation of the balloon of the tracheal tube to prevent VAP occurrence.
In order to examine the current endotracheal intubation practice among critically ill patients, a prospective observational multicenter study of adult critically ill patients was conducted from July 2015 to January 2017 involving 20 ICUs. In this study, the primary aim was to describe, through a prospective observational multicenter study, the current intubation practice of adult critically ill patients undergoing endotracheal intubations with a focus on deriving and validating a prediction model for both immediate airway and hemodynamic complications.
In this prospective, randomized study, the investigators assess the intubation conditions during videolaryngoscopy with Glidescope Titanium whether patients receive (curare (Atracurium) group) or no (control group) within elective surgery patients with no difficult intubation prediction
The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is a clinically relevant difference in first attempt success rates between the Ambu King Vision Video Laryngoscope and Direct Laryngoscopy in Children.
