This device can present various challenges to anesthesiologists during its placement, including the potential for acute loss of the airway, inadequate administration of inhalation agents, and inadequacy of controlled mechanical ventilatio...

Montgomery designed the tracheal T-tube in 1968.l The T-tube is made of silicone and therefore relatively inert and resistant to tissue reaction.2 It can be used f...
متن کاملInnovative use of a Montgomery cannula in the bronchoscopic management of tracheal stenosis and failed tracheostomy decannulation

متن کاملHumble Foley's catheter to the rescue in a case of T-tube insertion: a case report
The Montgomery T-tube poses a challenge to anesthesiologists because of loss of anesthetic gases through the open proximal end of the vertical limb and lack of standard anesthesia circuit connectors. Here, we present a case of a 25-year-old woman with a reported history of accidental strangulation 18 months previously. The patient had a metallic tracheostomy tube in situ due to the development ...
