Filter by:1. Check the intubation conditions during laryngoscopy without external mobilization of the larynx, with Sellick manoeuvre or with low paratracheal esophagal compression in obese patient 2. International surveys comparing tracheal intubation difficulty on a scale of 1 to 3 between cricoid pressure, Left Paratracheal Esophageal Compression and neutral position
The Investigators' knowledge about pre-hospital emergency intubations is still limited. Various factors such as the average and the normal range of intubation time are still unknown. Since its launch Rega videotapes all intubation attempts with the C-MAC videolaryngoscope. The investigators prospectively analysed all routinely recorded intubation videos during one year performed by the Rega crews. The investigators analysed different parameters such as first pass success rate and the time to successfully intubate alongside with others. The goal was to find out more about this difficult procedure, about the problems which regularly occur and on what should be put particular emphasis during training.
Nasotracheal intubation is indicated in patients undergoing oral, maxillofacial, or dental procedures. During nasal intubation with the traditional Macintosh laryngoscope, use of Magill's forceps or external laryngeal manipulation is usually required to facilitate intubation. The prolonged or multiple intubation attempts and, subsequently, may be associated with complications such as oxygen desaturation or airway and dental injuries. The C-MAC videolaryngoscope (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany) is a videolaryngoscope using a modified Macintosh blade, which may be a useful alternative both for routine and difficult airway management and for educational purposes. In this prospective, randomized, controlled trial, the purpose is to compare C-MAC and DL in terms of intubation times, hemodynamic response and adverse events associated with nasotracheal intubation in children undergoing dental procedures.
The ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (ProSeal LMA; Intavent Orthofix, Maidenhead, UK) is a device with a double cuff to improve the seal and a drain tube to help prevent aspiration and gastric insufflation, facilitate passage of a gastric tube, and provide information about malposition. The manufacturer recommends inserting the ProSealTM LMA using digital manipulation or with an introducer tool, but both these techniques have lower success rates than the classic LMA. This prospective study that will investigated the usefulness of the C-MAC videolaryngoscopy for inserting a PLMA in anesthetized non-paralyzed patients and compared it with the index finger.
Along with the technological advances in medicine, videolaryngoscope is the most commonly preferred technique for intubation with double lumen tube. The use of Storz C-MAC D Blade and McGrath MAC X3 Blade videolaryngoscope were compared in intubation of single lung ventilation patients who underwent chest surgery in terms of duration of intubation, hemodynamic response and intubation-induced complications.
Along with the technological advances in medicine, videolaryngoscope is the most commonly preferred technique for intubation of expected difficult airway management such as morbidly obese patients. In this prospective controlled clinical study, the purpose is to compare C-MAC videolaryngoscope and McGrath MAC videolaryngoscope in respect to duration of intubation, haemodynamic response, and complications related intubation of morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
The investigators intended to evaluate first success rate and learning curve of trainee anesthetists performing direct and videolaryngoscopy in pediatric airway management.
The primary goal of this study was to identify parameters affecting the failure of videolaryngoscopy in clinical practice; secondly, the incidence of videolaryngoscopy use and the most frequently used patient groups.
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.
Patients presenting for elective surgery requiring orotracheal intubation will be randomized to having the ETT inserted into the pharynx simultaneous to GlideScope insertion and then having the ETT advanced under GlideScope guidance into the trachea, or, being intubated in the more common fashion with the GlideScope being inserted first and having the ETT then advanced via the pharynx into the trachea.
