Influence of Tracheostomy Level on Surgical Management of Pediatric Airway Stenosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Tracheostomy location is a critical determinant of surgical complexity and outcomes in pediatric laryngotracheal stenosis. Misplacement may lead to longer tracheal resections, an increased need for stoma relocation, more complex reconstruction, and secondary stenosis. Strategic planning of tracheostomy position can improve surgical outcomes.

Long‐Term Outcomes of Patients Undergoing Cricothyrotomy at a Tertiary Care Level One Trauma Center

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This retrospective study of 48 patients undergoing emergent cricothyrotomy (2014–2025) evaluated short‐ and long‐term outcomes and complications. Common complications included dysphagia, pneumonia, and dysphonia, with delayed conversion to tracheostomy associated with increased pneumonia risk; long‐term issues included persistent dysphagia, subglottic ...

Identification of Coagulation Phenotypes Using Viscoelastic and Conventional Assays During Veno‐Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Hierarchical Clustering Analysis

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Hierarchical clustering of viscoelastic and conventional coagulation parameters identified three distinct phenotypes in V‐V ECMO patients, revealing substantial APTT–CK‐R discordance and highlighting the value of TEG‐derived markers for detecting coagulopathy not captured by standard monitoring.

Investigating Predictors of Decannulation Through Endoscopic Approach in Patients With Tracheostomy and Peristomal Subglottic Stenosis

OTO Open
Objective Peristomal subglottic stenosis (SGS) is a common sequela after tracheostomy, with severe cases precluding decannulation. Predictors of decannulation success in these patients following endoscopic intervention are not well studied.
