Submental intubation in patients with panfacial fractures: A prospective study
Submental intubation is an interesting alternative to tracheostomy, especially when short-term postoperative control of airway is desirable with the presence of undisturbed access to oral as well as nasal airways and a good dental occlusion. Submental intubation with midline incision has been used in 10 cases from October 2008 to March 2010 in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, M...
متن کاملSubmental tracheal intubation in a case of panfacial trauma.
Airway management of panfacial fractures is complicated. Treatment of fractures of such bones presents a certain difficulty as in not only do the fracture fragments have to be aligned but the teeth have to be kept in proper occlusion as well. To achieve a proper pre-traumatic occlusion, the occlusion has to be maintained and checked at all times during the surgery. There are many options for th...
متن کاملSubmandibular approach for tracheal intubation in patients with panfacial fractures.
BACKGROUND The oral route for tracheal intubation can interfere with some maxillofacial surgical procedures. At the same time, the nasal route can be contraindicated or impossible. Tracheostomy is the usual solution in these circumstances, but it carries a high incidence of complications. We tested the submandibular route for tracheal intubation as an alternative to tracheostomy in such situati...
متن کاملFacial fractures and submental tracheal intubation.
Submental tracheal intubation is a simple, quick and effective alternative to oral and nasal tracheal intubation or tracheostomy in the surgical management of selected patients with craniomaxillofacial injuries. It has a low morbidity and it does not impede the surgical field, allowing for temporary maxillo-mandibular fixation (jaw wiring) intra-operatively, and nasal assessment, manipulation a...
متن کاملEvaluation of safety and usefulness of submental intubation in panfacial trauma surgery
OBJECTIVES Submental intubation has been advocated as an alternative to classical tracheostomy for certain indicated panfacial trauma surgeries. Surgeons should have various options for airway management in maxillofacial trauma patients. Most maxillofacial injuries involve occlusal derangements, which might require intraoperative occlusal corrections; hence, orotracheal intubation is not ideal....
