Factors affecting difficult lightwand intubation: a prospective double-blind trial
Copyright c Korean Society of Anesthesiologists, 2009 Background: Unanticipated difficulties during tracheal intubation are related to perioperative morbidity and mortality, but the success of direct laryngoscopic intubation depends largely on clinician’s experience and the upper airway anatomy. The lightwand was introduced as alternative intubation technique, but the indicators of difficult li...

متن کاملLightwand tracheal intubation with and without muscle relaxation.
BACKGROUND Lightwand tracheal intubation is a suitable technique for patients who are difficult to intubate but who are receiving effective ventilation. The effect of muscle relaxants on the efficacy of lightwand intubation has not yet been evaluated. The authors conducted a prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the effectiveness and incidence of complications of lightwa...
متن کاملEndotracheal intubation using i-gel® and lightwand in a patient with difficult airway: a case report
This case report involves tracheal intubation using i-gel® in combination with a lightwand in a patient with a difficult airway, classified as Cormack-Lehane grade 3. I-gel® was used during anesthesia induction to properly maintain ventilation. The authors have previously reported successful tracheal intubation on a patient with a difficult airway through the use of i-gel® and a fiberoptic bron...
متن کاملAppropriate head position for nasotracheal intubation by using lightwand device (Trachlight).
The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the head position and the subsequent ease of nasotracheal intubation by using the lightwand device Trachlight (TL). Patients requiring nasotracheal intubation were subdivided into 3 groups according to the intubated head position (group S: sniffing position; group E: extension position; and group N: neutral position). The numbe...
