BACKGROUND When oral or nasal fiberoptic laryngoscopy is attempted, mandibular advancement has been reported to improve the laryngeal view. The authors hypothesized that mandibular advancement may also improve the laryngeal view during direct laryngoscopy. METHODS Forty patients undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia were included in this study. After establishment of an adequat...
Background: The present study was performed to 1. compare usefulness of the AirtraqTM (ATQ) and the Airway ScopeTM (AWS) with the Macintosh laryngoscope (MAC), 2. compare usefulness of the ATQ with the AWS, 3. compare usefulness of the AWS with the tip of the blade under the epiglottis as recommended by the manufacturer (AWS-Miller) and the AWS with the tip of the blade in the vallecula as the ...
Copyright c Korean Society of Anesthesiologists, 2009 Background: Unanticipated difficulties during tracheal intubation are related to perioperative morbidity and mortality, but the success of direct laryngoscopic intubation depends largely on clinician’s experience and the upper airway anatomy. The lightwand was introduced as alternative intubation technique, but the indicators of difficult li...
Background and purpose: Airway assessment is very important in anesthesia. The aim of this study was to determine the diagnostic value of Mallampati test indicators in supine and sitting positions with and without phonation in anesthesia candidate patients. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study (diagnostic approach) was done in 200 adult patients ≥16 years, undergoing s...
Background: The major responsibility of an anesthesiologist is to provide adequate respiration for the patient. The most vital element in providing functional respiration is the airway. No anesthetic is safe unless diligent efforts are devoted to maintaining an intact functional airway. Difficult intubation had been classified into four grades, according to the view obtainable at laryngoscopy b...
INTRODUCTION Since anesthesia complications associated with unexpected difficult airway are potentially catastrophic, they should be avoided. The modified Mallampati test and jaw-thrust maneuver enable the identification of difficult airway. The aim of this study was to associate the modified Mallampati test and the jaw-thrust maneuver with laryngoscopy (Cormack-Lehane) in an attempt to identif...
BACKGROUND Tracheal intubation in the prone position has previously been reported only as a necessity in a very few emergency situations. It emerged at our clinic as a routine after invention of a test aimed at pinpointing a painful motion segment in patients with chronic low back pain who were candidates for lumbar fusion operation. MATERIAL AND METHODS During a 6-year period 247 consecutive...
There have been various attempts at defining what is meant by a difficult intubation. Repeated attempts at intubation, the use of a bougie or other intubation aid have been used in some papers, but perhaps the most widely used classification is by Cormack and Lehane [1] which describes the best view of the larynx seen at laryngoscopy (figure 1). This should be recorded in the patient’s notes wh...
