Comparison between bougies and stylets for simulated tracheal intubation with the C-MAC D-blade videolaryngoscope.
BACKGROUND The C-MAC D-blade is a new, highly angulated, videolaryngoscope blade designed for use in patients with difficult airways. Directing a tracheal tube into the trachea with any indirect viewing laryngoscope can be difficult, even with a good view of the laryngeal inlet. OBJECTIVE To determine which introducing strategy is most suitable for use with the C-MAC D-blade videolaryngoscope...
متن کاملAwake fibreoptic intubation for airway burns.
A young adult was admitted to a casualty department with severe burns sustained in a motor vehicle fire. His airway was initially patient, but in grave danger of obstruction due to inhalational injury. Conventional methods of airway management were unable to guarantee a patent airway and a novel approach is described.
متن کاملAwake endotracheal intubation in patients with severely restricted mouth opening- alternative devices to fiberscope: series of cases and literature review
Awake Fiberoptic Intubation (AFI) is a standard method of airway management in the case of anticipated difficult intubation. It is usually performed with the use of flexible fiberscopes. In this report we have described two methods in which alternative devices to the fiberscope were utilized for awake intubation in patients with severely restricted mouth opening scheduled for craniomaxillofacia...
متن کاملAwake tracheal intubation with combined use of King Vision™ videolaryngoscope and a fiberoptic bronchoscope in a patient with giant lymphocele.
A 33 year-old, 160 cm, 106 kg gentleman with 7 years of progressively enlarged chest and neck swelling presented with orthopnea and dyspnea and was scheduled for lymphocele excision. The patient’s hemogram, electrolytes, creatinine, and liver tests were normal. Pulmonary function tests showed a mild restrictive pattern (FEV1 68%, FVC 78%, and FEV1/FVC 87% of predicted). A left anterior multi-cy...
متن کاملFluoroscope-aided retrograde placement of guide wire for tracheal intubation in patients with limited mouth opening.
Passing a retrograde catheter/wire into the pharynx through a cricothyroid puncture can facilitate tracheal intubation in difficult situations where either a flexible fibre-optic bronchoscope or an expert user of such a device is not available. Some mouth opening is essential for the oral and/or nasal retrieval of the catheter/wire from the pharynx. Two patients with temporo-mandibular joint (T...
