The Use of Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy During Percutaneous Dilatational Tracheostomy With Laryngeal Mask
UNLABELLED The aim of our research is to evaluate the advantage by the combined use of fiberoptic bronchoscopy and laryngeal mask during the performance of percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy in an intensive care unit. PATIENTS 16 adult patients who were candidates to middle-long term mechanical ventilation. ENVIRONMENT Intensive Care Unit of a Community General Hospital. RESULTS We ex...
متن کاملModified technique of realtime ultrasound guided percutaneous balloon dilatational tracheostomy through laryngeal mask airway insertion
Background The technique of bedside percutaneous tracheostomy (BPT) has become a routine procedure in the ICU. As a common standard, a bronchoscope is used during the BPT in order to assess the upper airway anatomy and to assist guiding the needle while penetrating the tracheal inter-ring space into the correct central positioning. However, using the bronchoscope during the puncture of the trac...
متن کاملAcute fatal haemorrhage during percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy.
Percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy (PDT) is associated with a number of life-threatening complications. We present a case of massive and fatal arterial haemorrhage that occurred in the intensive care unit during an elective PDT on an 86-year-old woman following earlier evacuation of a traumatic subdural haematoma. An avulsed right subclavian artery was found at post mortem. Previous thyroid...
متن کاملIntubating laryngeal mask airway as an independent ventilatory and intubation device. A comparison between supine, right lateral and left lateral
BACKGROUND Sudden loss of airway in patients in the lateral position has always been proven to be difficult to manage with conventional laryngoscopy. We performed a randomized controlled trial to prove the success rate of ventilation and intubation in the lateral position via intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA). METHODS Ninety patients were divided into three groups of 30 patients each, p...
متن کاملPercutaneous dilatational tracheostomy.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the rate, timing, the incidence of complications of percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy (PDT) and its effects by on nosocomial pneumonia. METHODS The study is a retrospective analysis of 104 patients (56 males, 48 females) > or = 18 years (54 +/- 19) who had undergone a PDT for respiratory failure during the five years 1998-2003.
