A rare case of difficult airway management in a Klippel-Feil syndrome pediatric patient with osseous torticollis undergone orthopedic surgery

BMC Anesthesiology, 2021
Background Orthopedic surgery for cervical torticollis poses potential threat to airway management both in tracheal intubation and extubation. Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) is a complex syndrome of osseous and visceral anomalies.

Effect of High-Flow Nasal Cannula Therapy vs Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Following Extubation on Liberation From Respiratory Support in Critically Ill Children: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2022
Importance The optimal first-line mode of noninvasive respiratory support following extubation of critically ill children is not known. Objective To evaluate the noninferiority of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy as the first-line mode of ...
