INTRATRACHEAL INSUFFLATION

Ether, Note on the Intratracheal Insufflation of

An Experimental Study of the Question of Aspiration of Foreign Material into the Air Passages during Intratracheal Insufflation

The foregoing experiments clearly justify the following conclusions :- Intratracheal insufflation protects the respiratory tract very efficiently against any invasion from the pharynx. The filling up of the pharynx with extraneous material, whether it be from the stomach or from the mouth, brings no danger to the trachea and bronchi. This holds true even if the animal is under deep anesthesia. ...

Uterotubal Insufflation and Hysterosalpinography

Although during the past twenty-five years insufflation and hysterosalpingography have both become established and widely practised procedures in the investigation of sterility, there are still certain aspects of both techniques upon which full agreement has not been reached. One of these is the question whether they should be regarded as alternative rather than as complementary procedures, ano...

Maximum insufflation capacity.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of deep lung insufflations on maximum insufflation capacities (MICs) and peak cough flows (PCFs) for patients with neuromuscular disease. METHOD Forty-three patients with neuromuscular disease were trained in stacking delivered volumes of air to deep lung insufflation and were prescribed a program of air stacking once their vital capacities (VCs) were noted...
