متن کاملPredicting difficult intubation.
The amount of larynx seen at intubation was assessed in 633 adult patients undergoing routine surgery. Various measurements of the head and neck were made in an attempt to discover which features were associated with difficulty with laryngoscopy (defined as the inability to see even the arytenoids).

متن کاملCan an airway assessment score predict difficulty at intubation in the emergency department?
AIM To assess whether an airway assessment score based on the LEMON method is able to predict difficulty at intubation in the emergency department. METHODS Patients requiring endotracheal intubation in the resuscitation room of a UK teaching hospital between June 2002 and September 2003 were assessed on criteria based on the LEMON method. At laryngoscopy, the Cormack and Lehane grade was reco...
متن کاملI-Gel: A Rescue Intubation Device in Unanticipated Difficult Intubation for Emergency Laparotomy
The “i-gel” is a newer, non-inflatable supraglottic airway device for clinical use and also for resuscitation purposes. It has also been found to be a useful ventilation and intubation device in anticipated/simulated difficult airway situations. However, its use in unanticipated difficult airway situations in emergency set up has not been explored. We describe a case of 24-year-old male posted ...
