We report on the results of a retrospective audit of airway management in patients presenting to the Port Moresby General Hospital from 1998 to 2009. Safe and secure airway management can be challenging in the operating room during head and neck surgery. These challenges continue into the postoperative period and can present significant issues to intensive care staff. This series includes many ...
We present a case of lingual nerve injury that was associated with use of the ProSeal laryngeal mask airway during shoulder replacement in a 61-yr-old male. We also review other cases of cranial nerve injury, most of which were associated with use of the classic laryngeal mask airway. In principle, the frequency of cranial nerve injuries can be reduced by avoiding insertion trauma, using approp...
Retropharyngeal haematoma is a rare and potentially fatal cause of airway obstruction. The treatment of retropharyngeal haematoma is contentious. We report a case of an 84 year old woman on aspirin and warfarin who developed a retropharyngeal haematoma following minor blunt head and neck trauma. The patient presented insidiously with Capp's triad and developed delayed airway obstruction necessi...
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY This study was undertaken to highlight the method, usefulness and postoperative morbidity of using a laryngeal mask airway (LMA) to ventilate patients with difficult airways undergoing laryngeal procedures. PROCEDURES Retrospective chart review where we identified patients deemed to have a difficult airway who underwent laryngeal and upper tracheal procedures, and were el...
Background Guidelines recommend that brain trauma patients with a Glasgow Coma Scale score <9 should have an airway established. Also, SpO2 >90%, systolic blood pressure >90 mmHg and end-tidal CO2 between 4.5 and 5.3 kPa is advised [1]. The objectives were to investigate guideline adherence, reasons for non-adherence and the incidences of complications related to pre-hospital advanced airway ma...
Background. Blunt chest wall trauma accounts for over 10% of all trauma patients presenting to emergency departments worldwide. When the injury is not as severe, deciding which blunt chest wall trauma patients require a higher level of clinical input can be difficult. We hypothesized that patient factors, injury patterns, analgesia, postural condition, and positive airway pressure influence out...
Anesthesiologists are often consulted to help in the management of pediatric otolaryngologic emergencies. These include airway obstruction in children suffering from acute epiglottitis and croup. Surgical otolaryngologic emergencies such as foreign body aspiration, post-tonsillectomy bleeding, obstructive laryngeal papillomatosis, peritonsillar abscess, and laryngeal trauma can be life threaten...
Laryngeal Mask Airway has gained wide acceptance for routine airway management, difficult airway and in emergency situations. The classical method of insertion was recommended by Dr Brain. Over the years various induction and insertion techniques have been described with variable results. Combination of induction agents with narcotics, with or without small dose muscle relaxants has been found ...
