BLIND TRACHEAL INTUBATION THROUGH air-Q SUPRALARYNGEAL DEVICE: COMPARISON WITH INTUBATING LARYNGEAL MASK AIRWAY Authors
Background: Supra glotic airway devices are increasingly used in anesthesia and emergency medicine as a rescue for intubation and / or ventilation. This study was designed to investigate the supralaryngeal device air-Q in comparison with the ILMA-Fastrach in order to facilitate a rescue airway and intubation.
متن کاملAwake tracheal intubation through the intubating laryngeal mask.
PURPOSE To report successful awake insertion of the intubating laryngeal mask (Fastrach) and subsequent tracheal intubation through it, in a patient with predicted difficult tracheal intubation, due to limited mouth opening, and difficult ventilation through a facemask, due to a large mass at the corner of the mouth. CLINICAL FEATURES A 53-yr-old woman with a large post-gangrenous mass on the...
متن کاملAwake videolaryngoscopy-assisted tracheal intubation of the morbidly obese.
Awake videolaryngoscopy may be useful for the tracheal intubation of the morbidly obese. This prospective, observational study enrolled 50 patients undergoing bariatric surgery. After sedation and topical anaesthesia of the airway, awake tracheal intubation was attempted, assisted by videolaryngoscopy, and terminated if there was severe gagging, coughing, or inadequate laryngeal view. After thr...
متن کاملSuccessful tracheal intubation through an intubating laryngeal airway in pediatric patients with airway hemorrhage.
BACKGROUND This case report describes the use of the air-Q intubating laryngeal airway (air-Q ILA; Cookgas LLC, St. Louis, MO) for airway rescue and a conduit for blind tracheal intubation in two pediatric patients with failed rapid sequence intubation and difficult airways secondary to airway bleeding in the emergency department (ED). OBJECTIVES To describe the use of a new supraglottic resc...
متن کاملHaemodynamic response to tracheal intubation via intubating laryngeal mask airway versus direct laryngoscopic tracheal intubation.
OBJECTIVE To compare the haemodynamic response to tracheal intubation using either direct larygoscopy or Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway. METHODS This was a prospective randomized controlled trial. One hundred adult ASA-I and ASA-II patients coming to the Anaesthesia Department of Aga Khan University Hospital were randomly divided into two groups. In group-I endotracheal intubation was done ...
