The Physiologically Difficult Intubation

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 2022
Emergency physicians intubate critically ill patients almost daily. Intubation of the critically ill emergency department (ED) patient is a high-risk, high-stress situation, as many have physiologic derangements such as hypotension, hypoxemia, acidosis, and right ventricular dysfunction that markedly increase the risk of peri-intubation cardiovascular ...

Unanticipated difficult intubation

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2004
While there are many predictors of difficult laryngoscopic intubation, they all have a low positive predictive value. Therefore, unanticipated difficult laryngoscopic intubation will likely occur in our day-to-day practice. This review discusses recent developments in alternative airway devices and techniques in addressing these difficulties.There is ...

Management of difficult intubation

European Journal of Anaesthesiology, 2001
Appropriate airway management is an essential part of the anaesthetist's role. Difficult intubation, which can now be quantified using the 'Intubation Difficulty Scale', should be anticipated whenever possible. A strategy needs to be developed in order to anticipate problems. The first part of this paper reviews the different factors that contribute to

Translaryngeal guided intubation for difficult intubation

Critical Care Medicine, 1987
Airway obstruction remains a constant problem in acute care. This is particularly true when there are anatomical or pathological abnormalities, trauma, or when repeated failed attempts at endoscopic or blind intubations have left a bloody field, preventing clear visualization of the vocal cords.

Difficult intubation in pregnancy

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2011
A scenario-oriented approach to the problem of difficult intubation in pregnant patients leads to the recognition of the unpredicted difficult or failed intubation as the main concern. The appropriate means to cope with this rare but life-threatening complication lies in a gradual employment of principles beginning with preferential application of ...

A New Technique for Difficult Intubations

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2001
A Macintosh laryngoscope was modified to allow a rigid fibreoptic scope to be attached. Our purpose was to determine if Cormack and Lehane scores could be improved using the described fibreoptic technique, thus allowing easier intubating conditions. In order to assess its value for intubation, a study was performed on 53 patients. Thirty-three of these

A difficult intubation.

Acta anaesthesiologica Belgica, 1976
This paper describes a case of a difficult intubation in a neonate with the Pierre-Robin syndrome. Direct laryngoscopy was impracticable due to the atypical anatomy of the oropharyngeal cavity. The importance of adequate pre-anesthetic examination is stressed. Deep anesthesia during spontaneous respiration can facilitate endotracheal intubation in such
