BACKGROUND The aim of this retrospective investigation was to evaluate the position of the nasotracheal tube in the nose and to show its anatomical relationship with the maxillary sinus ostium. METHODS Fifty data sets from patients who had undergone endonasal intubation were analyzed for tube positioning. There was a drop-out of eight data sets due to missing information concerning tube size ...
The patient was a 55-year-old male alcoholic who presented with bleeding oesophageal varices. During the course of management a SengstakenBlakemore tube was passed and inflated with a Gastrografin and saline solution.1 2 The position of the tube was checked radiologically. Despite sedation the patient was restless and succeeded in pulling the tube so that the oesophageal balloon was partly out ...
Background and purpose: Reducing sensory and environmental stimuli such as visual and auditory stimuli is one of the non-pharmacological methods to relieve pain. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of eye shields and earmuffs on pain caused by orogastric tube insertion in infants. Materials and methods: A clinical trial was carried out in teaching hospitals affiliated with Teh...
Incorrect endotracheal placement of the tracheal tube can lead to serious complications, such as laryngeal nerve paralysis and accidental extubation [1]. In oral and maxillofacial surgery and dental procedure, the head of the patient was covered in drape, and an anesthesiologist cannot often see tracheal tube. In addition, surgeon (or dentist) may move the head of the patient. Flexion of the ne...
INTRODUCTION Laboratory studies demonstrated that the lateral Trendelenburg position (LTP) is superior to the semirecumbent position (SRP) in the prevention of ventilator-associated pulmonary infections. We assessed whether the LTP could also prevent pulmonary colonization and infections caused by an endotracheal tube (ETT) biofilm. METHODS Eighteen pigs were intubated with ETTs colonized by ...
In 2004 the MHRA published a directive for all hospitals in the UK to use pH paper in place of litmus paper when testing position of nasogastric tubes (NGT). This article illustrates one trust's implementation of this process of change in order to achieve compliance.
OBJECTIVE To compare endotracheal tube tip-to-carina distance obtained by ultrasonography vs. that obtained by chest X-ray in neonates. METHODS After endotracheal intubation of 40 neonates, chest X-ray and, within one hour, ultrasonography was obtained for each patient for measurement of endotracheal tube tip-to-carina distance. RESULTS Means of endotracheal tube tip-to-carina distances wer...
provided the original work is properly cited. CC Malpositioning of an endotracheal tube within the airway can lead to serious complications, such as endobronchial intubation, which may cause collapse of the nonventilated lung and barotrauma of the ventilated lung or vocal cord paralysis and accidental extubation [1]. We retrospectively identified 204 (54 plain tubes and 54 reinforced tubes in m...
BACKGROUND The population of obese patients is progressively growing and bariatric operations are becoming increasingly common. Morbidly obese patients require special anesthetic care and are often considered to be difficult to ventilate and intubate. The VivaSight™ Single Lumen tube is an endotracheal tube with a camera embedded in its tip. The view from the tip appears continuously on a monit...
We report a case of trauma patient, whose heart rhythm and rate changed from sinus tachycardia to rapid atrial fibrillation. The change occurred immediately after the insertion of left thoracostomy tube. The patient did not respond to pharmacological treatment. Only when the tube was pulled out, the rhythm returned to sinus. Chest radiogram shows the position of the tube, in close proximity to ...
