Difficult face-mask ventilation and difficult laryngoscopy.
To the Editor: Our thanks are due to Kheterpal et al. 1 for another valuable addition to our understanding of airway management during anesthesia. Their work suggests that provided we exclude the patients with obvious abnormalities, we will find that the incidence of the combination of difficult mask ventilation (DMV) and difficult laryngoscopy (DL) is infrequent but not rare (0.4%), and the ou...
متن کاملAirway management in difficult mask ventilation with difficult intubation – A case report
Airway management difficulties continue to be problematic to the anaesthesiologists as it is the major cause for anaesthesia related morbidity and mortality. Difficult airway includes difficult intubation (DI), difficult mask ventilation (DMV) or both. Most of the anaesthesiologists concentrate on predicting difficult intubation, but give very little attention to difficult mask ventilation. Unp...
متن کاملDifficult mask ventilation.
Mask ventilation is the most fundamental skill in airway management. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about difficult mask ventilation (DMV) situations. Various definitions for DMV have been used in the literature. The lack of a precise standard definition creates a problem for studies on DMV and causes confusion in data communication and comparisons. DMV develops because of m...

To the Editor:-As a bearded anesthetist, 1 was interested to read the solution of Drs. Johnson, Bradway, and Blood to the problem of good mask ventilation in the presence of an hirsute face.' Although they are correct in their assertion that it is a frequently encountered situation, they are incorrect in their statement that the only previously published solution has been to skive the patient p...
متن کاملPrediction of difficult mask ventilation.
BACKGROUND Maintenance of airway patency and oxygenation are the main objectives of face-mask ventilation. Because the incidence of difficult mask ventilation (DMV) and the factors associated with it are not well known, we undertook this prospective study. METHODS Difficult mask ventilation was defined as the inability of an unassisted anesthesiologist to maintain the measured oxygen saturati...
