Use of gum elastic bougie for prehospital difficult intubation.
The objective of this study was to assess effectiveness of gum elastic bougie (GEB) in case of difficult intubation occurring in the prehospital settings. After manikin training to GEB handling, physicians were recommended to use GEB as first alternative technique in case of difficult intubation. Intubating conditions and details of patients requiring GEB-assisted laryngoscopy were recorded ove...
متن کاملComparison of the Levitan FPS Scope and the single-use bougie for simulated difficult intubation in anaesthetised patients.
A randomised cross-over study was performed in 34 patients with no evidence of airway difficulties, following induction of general anaesthesia, to compare the efficacy of the Levitan FPS scope (LFPS) and the single-use bougie for tracheal intubation during simulated grade IIIa laryngoscopy. Success rates for intratracheal placement of the device, and the time required for insertion and tracheal...
متن کاملComparison of bougie-assisted intubation with traditional endotracheal intubation in a simulated difficult airway.
OBJECTIVE To compare the success and ease of bougie-assisted intubation (BAI) with those of traditional endotracheal intubation (ETI) in a simulated difficult airway (20.4 seconds for BAI vs. 16.7 seconds for ETI, p = 0.102). METHODS This was a prospective, randomized, crossover, single-blind study comparing BAI with ETI in a simulated difficult airway. The 35 participants included paramedics...
متن کاملFibre-optic aided bougie (FAB) for simulated difficult tracheal intubation.
INTRODUCTION Difficult intubation remains a key problem and the value of the gum elastic bougie as a first approach is well recognised. MATERIALS AND METHODS A fine fibre-optic endoscope (Rapiscope, Cook Critical Care) was used in 50 patients to verify placement of a custom-designed hollow plastic bougie prior to "rail-roading" a tracheal tube. Following induction and muscle relaxation, direc...
متن کاملAirway injury caused by a Portex single-use bougie.
To the Editor: The tracheal tube introducer (bougie) is widely used to facilitate difficult intubation. However, single-use introducers, compared to reusable ones, appear to be more traumatic [1-3]. A 61-year-old woman with esophageal reflux and no predictive signs of difficult intubation received rapidsequence induction with application of cricoid pressure. Direct laryngoscopy revealed a Corma...
