Predicting difficult laryngoscopy in morbidly obese Thai patients by ultrasound measurement of distance from skin to epiglottis: a prospective observational study

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2022
Background In morbidly obese patients, airway management is challenging since the incidence of difficult intubation is three times than those with a BMI within the healthy range.

Airway management in mucopolysaccharidosis: a retrospective case series review

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2023
Airway management can be difficult in surgeries of patients with mucopolysaccharidosis. We performed a retrospective review of 31 surgeries performed between 2015 and 2019. The mean age of the patients was 127.6 months.

Can HRCT be used as a marker of airway remodelling in children with difficult asthma? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Whole airway wall thickening on high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is reported to parallel thickening of the bronchial epithelial reticular basement membrane (RBM) in adult asthmatics. A similar relationship in children with difficult

Use of video laryngoscope for tracheal intubation in patient with oral cavity mass: case report [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2020
Background and objectives When planning the management of a predicted difficult airway, it is important to determine which strategy will be followed. Video laryngoscopy is a major option in scenarios with factors suggesting difficult airway access. It is

Editorial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
No aspect of the practice of pediatric anesthesia is more essential than airway management. Pediatric anesthesiologists are the ‘go to’ specialists when infants and children with difficult airways present anywhere in the hospital. To our advantage, rapid

A comparison of the force applied on oral structures during intubation attempts between the Pentax-AWS airwayscope and the Macintosh laryngoscope: a high-fidelity simulator-based study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objective: We sought to determine whether the use of Pentax-AWS Airwayscope (AWS) applied less force on oral structures during intubation attempts than a conventional direct laryngoscope (DL). Design: Prospective cross-over study.
