Use of gum elastic bougie for prehospital difficult intubation.
The objective of this study was to assess effectiveness of gum elastic bougie (GEB) in case of difficult intubation occurring in the prehospital settings. After manikin training to GEB handling, physicians were recommended to use GEB as first alternative technique in case of difficult intubation. Intubating conditions and details of patients requiring GEB-assisted laryngoscopy were recorded ove...
متن کاملThe gum elastic bougie eases tracheal intubation while applying cricoid pressure compared to a stylet.
PURPOSE To compare the ease of tracheal intubation facilitated by the gum elastic bougie or the malleable stylet while applying cricoid pressure. METHODS Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists I-III adult patients undergoing elective surgeries participated in this study. After induction of anesthesia with 2.5 mg x kg(-1) propofol and vecuronium 0.1 mg x kg(-1), the laryngeal view was ass...
متن کاملFibre-optic aided bougie (FAB) for simulated difficult tracheal intubation.
INTRODUCTION Difficult intubation remains a key problem and the value of the gum elastic bougie as a first approach is well recognised. MATERIALS AND METHODS A fine fibre-optic endoscope (Rapiscope, Cook Critical Care) was used in 50 patients to verify placement of a custom-designed hollow plastic bougie prior to "rail-roading" a tracheal tube. Following induction and muscle relaxation, direc...
متن کاملAirway scope and gum elastic bougie with Macintosh laryngoscope for tracheal intubation in patients with simulated restricted neck mobility.
BACKGROUND /st> Airway Scope is a new videolaryngoscope which requires less cervical movement during intubation than direct laryngoscopy. Thus, in patients wearing a rigid cervical collar, we compared the efficacy of the Airway Scope and the gum elastic bougie with Macintosh laryngoscope during tracheal intubation. METHODS /st> Anaesthesia was induced with propofol, fentanyl, and rocuronium. ...
متن کاملUtilization of a gum elastic bougie to facilitate single lung intubation.
INTRODUCTION Patients with severe pulmonary hemorrhage due to unilateral trauma or a bleeding cancer often present to the emergency department in acute respiratory distress. Although it is generally recommended to perform single lung intubation, most emergency department providers do not have access to or are not familiar with double-lumen endotracheal tubes, and blind insertion of an endotrach...
