Submental Intubation Including Extubation: Airway Complications of Maxillomandibular Fixation
Hernandez first described the submental route for endotracheal intubation in 1986 as an alternative airway maneuver for maxillofacial procedures. Since that time, several case studies have been performed demonstrating the efficacy of the submental approach. This method was recently implemented in the case of a patient with altered nasal anatomy who sustained a mandibular fracture necessitating ...
متن کاملSubmental intubation: alternative short-term airway management in maxillofacial trauma
OBJECTIVES To assess submental route intubation as an alternative technique to a tracheostomy in the management of the airway in cranio-maxillofacial trauma, along with an assessment of its morbidity and complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS Submental intubation was performed in 17 patients who had maxillofacial panfacial trauma and management was done under general anesthesia during a period ...
متن کاملSubmental Intubation with Reinforced Tube for Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway
Submental endotracheal intubation is a simple and secure alternative to either nasoendotracheal intubation or a tracheostomy in the airway management of maxillofacial trauma. However, a submental endotracheal intubation is quite difficult to manage if adverse events such as a tube obstruction, accidental extubation, or a leaking cuff with the endotracheal tube in the submental route occur, whic...
متن کاملRespiratory complications associated with tracheal intubation and extubation.
We conducted a prospective survey on the incidence of respiratory complications associated with tracheal intubation and extubation in 1005 patients who underwent elective general anaesthesia over a 4-month period. During induction of anaesthesia, respiratory complications occurred in 46 patients (4.6%; 95% confidence limits (CL): 3.3, 5.9%). The common complications were coughing (1.5%) and dif...
