Filter by: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
Videolaryngoscopes become widely used. The aim of this study is to compare anesthetic induction when patients are tracheally intubated using a MacGraph Mac videolaryngoscope or a conventional MacIntosh laryngoscope. Tracheal intubation induces a nociceptive stimulation. Hypothesis is that the use of a videolaryngoscope induces a less pronounced nociceptive stimulation and, consequently, that it modifies the anesthetic drugs requirement. .
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a bed height make an effect to endotracheal intubation with Macintosh laryngoscope, Glidescope and Airwayscope during chest compressions in- hospital simulation cardiac arrest.
There are two routes in which a fiberoptic intubation can be performed - oral and nasal. In general, nasal intubation by any conventional method may be the preferred choice for certain procedures such as intra-oral surgeries, or for anatomical reasons such as limited mouth opening. If nasal intubation is not indicated or preferred, then oral intubation is usually performed. This study is looking to explore whether or not the nasal route significantly improves the ease and time for successful fiberoptic intubation compared to the oral route in children less than or equal to 2 years of age. This study will also examine if operator experience influence time to tracheal intubation with either route? The investigators hypothesize that the nasal route of fiberoptic intubation will be faster than the oral route, for both the trainee and the expert, and that there will be minimal differences between experts and trainees with nasal fiberoptic intubation.
Forces applied on soft upper tissues by different laryngoscope blades during direct laryngoscopy and intubation are considered to be major stimuli to cause serious damages to the patients. The aim of this study is to compare the force and pressure applied to soft tissue in order to achieve the same glottis view comparing direct laryngoscopy and videolaryngoscopy in vivo.
Videolaryngoscopes offer the potential to make tracheal intubation easier for the anaesthetist and less traumatic for the patient. This study aims to compare the intubation difficulty scores (a validated scoring system for ease of intubation) using the McGrath MAC as a videolaryngoscope, the McGrath MAC only as a direct laryngoscope (without video screen) and the MacIntosh laryngoscopes.
To determine whether video laryngioscopes facilitate intubation in ice-pick position in a manikin with restricted access to the airway
To determine whether different video laryngoscopes facilitate intubation in an manikin with immobilized cervical spine compared with standard laryngoscopy.
The study is in two parts Part one of the study describes the use of the new single-use flexible video-scope for intubation of patients with predicted normal airways. Part two compares the performance of the single-use flexible video-scope with that of a conventional flexible video-scope for awake intubation of patients with predicted difficult airways. The hypothesis is that the new single-use flexible video-scope for intubation performs as well as the traditional scope.
