A Novel Murine Model of Acute Laryngeal Injury After Intubation

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study describes a novel murine model of acute laryngeal injury (ALgI) after intubation. Chemomechanical injury was performed to the posterior glottis of adult mice using a bleomycin‐dipped wire brush under endoscopic guidance, resulting in reduced glottic mobility, increased posterior glottic thickness, and increased collagen expression. This safe,

J‐Shaped Guidewire‐Assisted Nasotracheal Intubation in the Dental Treatment of Children—A Retrospective, Observational Study

Pediatric Anesthesia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The challenges of nasotracheal intubation (NTI) often arise from the misalignment of the oral, pharyngeal, and laryngeal axes. We sought to assess the success and complication rate of an economically reusable J‐shaped stainless‐steel guidewire for NTI during dental treatment in children.
