Laparoscopic‐assisted ‘pull‐introducer technique’ for gastrostomy tube placement in small infants: A single‐centre experience

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Kirberg et al. described in 2016 a one‐step gastrostomy tube placement, the ‘pull‐introducer’ technique, designed for small‐for‐gestational‐age neonates, combining two endoscopic techniques. Nine infants (weight 3.4–8.1 kg) in our centre required a gastrostomy placement (two infants) or a combined gastrostomy placement and Nissen ...

Ultrasonic Vocalization Acoustics After Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury and Recovery

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Reliable and functional biomarkers in animal models of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury are needed to ensure translation of treatments from the laboratory to the clinic. This study aimed to investigate the impact of RLN injury on rodent ultrasonic vocalization (USV) acoustics in both acute and chronic stages of injury.

Operating Room or In‐Office Injection for Retrograde Cricopharyngeal Dysfunction Botulinum Toxin Injection

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Retrograde Cricopharyngeal Dysfunction (RCPD), also known as “No Burp Syndrome,” is a rare condition characterized by the inability to burp due to cricopharyngeus muscle dysfunction. Patients experience bloating, chest and abdominal discomfort, gurgling sounds, and excessive flatulence, which significantly impact quality of life ...

Cost and Efficiency of Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy: Endoscopy Suite Versus Outpatient Surgery Center

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Performing Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy in the Endoscopy Suite (ES) increases efficiency and reduces costs compared to the outpatient surgery center (SC) while maintaining safety for patients with CPAP‐intolerant Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Total facility time was reduced by 48 min and costs were 39.35% lower in the ES group, with all comparisons showing ...

Laryngeal Reinnervation vs Type I Thyroplasty in Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis (VOCALIST): A Randomized Feasibility Study

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
VOCALIST feasibility study demonstrated that conducting a multi‐centre phase III randomized controlled trial comparing laryngeal reinnervation and type I thyroplasty for unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) in UK is achievable. Recruitment, randomization, and data collection were successful, and outcome measures for voice, swallowing, and quality of ...

Development of a Core Outcome Set for Intervention Studies in Adults With Laryngotracheal Stenosis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We used a rigorous two round Delphi process informed by multiple stakeholder groups to gain consensus on seven core outcomes for inclusion in future research relating to adults with laryngotracheal stenosis. Use of this core outcome set will standardise outcomes measured in future research studies, ensuring they are comparable. ABSTRACT Objective Adult

Pill Shape Determines Esophageal Transit Times—A Pill‐to‐Pill Study

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Shape of pills differ, affecting how easy it is to swallow them. We compared esophageal transit times of a round pill with an oval pill demonstrating in both healthy and symptomatic adults, that the oval pill demonstrated a significantly shorter transit time.
