Choosing a laryngoscope blade: straight vs curved.
epidural set with both horizontal and vertical flanges (in contrast to vertical flanges only or a smooth plunger) can avoid confusion between syringes (Figure). The feel and weight of the loss of resistance syringe with free and consistent movement of the plunger are well discernable to the experienced hand. One may preferably use such dedicated syringes for neuraxial drug administration. Furth...
متن کاملA randomised comparative study of Miller laryngoscope blade versus Oxiport® Miller laryngoscope blade for neonatal and infant intubations
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Neonates and infants are prone to oxygen desaturation during the induction of general anaesthesia. Pharyngeal oxygen insufflation has been shown to delay the onset of desaturation and hypoxaemia during apnoea. We tested the hypothesis that deep laryngeal oxygenation with Oxiport® Miller blade would delay the onset of desaturation compared to laryngoscopy without supplemental...
متن کاملChanging the laryngoscope blade and its effect on laryngeal visualization.
To the Editor: Amour and colleagues compared single-use with reusable metal laryngoscope blades and found better laryngeal exposure and more successful intubation with the former. Laryngeal visualization and subsequent tracheal intubation are dependent, however, on many other factors besides the blade type. Upper airway anatomy, experience of the laryngoscopist, adequate relaxation, patient’s h...
متن کاملConstructal blade shape in nanofluids
Blade configuration of nanofluids has been proven to perform much better than dispersed configuration for some heat conduction systems. The analytical analysis and numerical calculation are made for the cylinder--shaped and regular-rectangular-prism--shaped building blocks of the blade-configured heat conduction systems (using nanofluids as the heat conduction media) to find the optimal cross-s...
متن کاملUnderstanding the Original Shape of the Macintosh Laryngoscope
71 years ago, the most popular curved laryngoscope in the world the Macintosh laryngoscope was designed by Sir Robert Reynolds Macintosh, which was expected to expose the larynx more easily under lighter anesthesia than that with the straight laryngoscope by elevating the epiglottis indirectly [1]. Although the design process of the Macintosh laryngoscope was mentioned in 1944, detailed feature...
