Gastric rupture after bag-mask-ventilation
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 42 year old woman underwent bronchoscopy with procedural propofol sedation. During the procedure, the patient suffered respiratory arrest, and bag-mask ventilation was initiated. During forced mask ventilation, abdominal distention occurred. Even after correct placement of an endotracheal and a nasogastric tube, high inspiratory pressures persisted. The abdominal CT scan revealed a high amount of intraperitoneal free air. An emergent laparotomy confirmed a stomach rupture. Immediately after opening of the peritoneal cavity, peak ventilatory pressures decreased. In this case forceful bag-mask ventilation led to air insufflation into the stomach, increasing gastric pressure, and consecutive stomach rupture.

Gastric Rupture after Bag Mask Ventilation: A Review Under a Case Report
Introduction: Bag mask ventilation is considered a safe and effective ventilation method. Despite the high frequency of gastric distension, few cases of gastric rupture are reported in literature. Case report: A 50-year-old female firefighter, ASA 2, was admitted in to the Burn Unit due to 2nd/3rd grade burns (34% of body surface). On the 22nd day after admission, she underwent balneotherapy, u...

Back ground & Aims: In the edentulous patients some authors suggest to leave dentures in when ventilating with bag-mask. In this research, we suggest a more efficient method. Materials & Methods: In the prospective blind randomized clinical trial we included 200 patients (age≥55) into two groups. After induction of anesthesia in all groups, in the group I, we placed folded gauze in each bucca...

This female infant was born at 34 weeks of gestation by spontaneous vaginal delivery following increasing polyhydramnios and premature rupture of membranes. At 22 weeks of gestation, a left-sided diaphragmatic hernia with minimal mediastinal shift and a favourable head-to-lung ratio had been diagnosed. After delivery, following a short period of bag-mask ventilation with apparently appropriate ...
متن کاملEmergency airway management by intensive care unit nurses with the intubating laryngeal mask airway and the laryngeal tube
When using the laryngeal tube and the intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA), the medium-size (maximum volume 1100 ml) versus adult (maximum volume 1500 ml) self-inflating bags resulted in significantly lower lung tidal volumes. No gastric inflation occurred when using both devices with either ventilation bag. The newly developed medium-size self-inflating bag may be an option to further reduc...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine effects of different airway devices and tidal volumes on lung ventilation and gastric inflation in an unprotected airway. METHODS Thirty one non-anaesthesia house officers volunteered for the study, and ventilated a bench model simulating an unintubated respiratory arrest patient with bag-valve-facemask, laryngeal mask airway, and combitub...
