Difficult Intubation Alert Is Associated With a Reduced Incidence of Difficult Intubation. [PDF]

Cureus
Difficult or failed intubation significantly increases the risk of morbidity and mortality. Documentation of a prior difficult or failed tracheal intubation is a strong predictor of future difficult intubation.We undertook a quality improvement project to create a redesigned difficult intubation alert with increased visibility in our electronic health ...

Predicting difficult intubation [PDF]

Anaesthesia, 1991
Summary Two pre‐operative tests for the prediction of difficult intubation are assessed. A modified Mallampati test and a measurement of thyromental distance were performed at the pre‐operative visit of 244 patients whose tracheas were subsequently intubated under general anaesthesia.

PREDICTING DIFFICULT INTUBATION

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1988
The amount of larynx seen at intubation was assessed in 633 adult patients undergoing routine surgery. Various measurements of the head and neck were made in an attempt to discover which features were associated with difficulty with laryngoscopy (defined as the inability to see even the arytenoids).

Difficult intubation in the parturient [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Anaesthesia, 1989
Difficult or failed tracheal intubation is an important cause of anaesthetic-related maternal morbidity and mortality. The incidence of failed intubation in parturients is estimated to be as frequent as 1 in 500; that of mortality is unknown, although some 10-13 pregnant women in England, Scotland and Wales die each year because of anaesthetic-related ...

Neonates with acute liver failure have higher overall mortality but similar posttransplant outcomes as older infants

Liver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Neonatal acute liver failure (ALF) carries a high mortality rate; however, little data exist on its peritransplant hospital course. This project aimed to identify factors associated with outcomes in neonates with ALF using large multicenter databases.

Difficult Tracheal Intubation [PDF]

Obstetric Anesthesia Digest, 1987
Summary This is a retrospective study of patients whose tracheas were impossible to intubate on a previous occasion. There is a correlation between the degree of difficulty and the anatomy of the oropharynx in the same patient. The study was initially on obstetric patients but was extended to nonobstetric surgical patients in order to

Extracellular Vesicles Modulation by an Adiponectin Receptor Agonist Provides Cardioprotection for Myocardial Ischemic Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ALY688, a drug mimicking the heart‐protective hormone adiponectin, reduces myocardial ischemia injury. ALY688 increases the production of extracellular vesicles, which carry protective cargo including adiponectin itself.

Difficult Tracheal Intubation In Obstetrics [PDF]

Obstetric Anesthesia Digest, 1983
Summary Difficult intubation has been classified into four grades, according to the view obtainable at laryngoscopy. Frequency analysis suggests that, in obstetrics, the main cause of trouble is grade 3, in which the epiglottis can be seen, but not the cords.

Real‐Time Holographic Feedback via Mixed Reality Sensorized Laryngoscope Training System Enhances Pediatric Intubation Training

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We proposed a Mixed Reality Sensorized Laryngoscope Training System to provide real‐time holographic torque feedback during pediatric endotracheal intubation simulation. Visualization formats are evaluated to reduce tracking error and visual demand.

Soft and Adhesive Cardiac Patch for Electrophysiological and Contraction Measurement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed an epicardial electronic patch with a modulus similar to that of the heart (approximately 65kPa), which can collect stable electrocardiogram signals and myocardial contractility on the surface of a dynamically beating heart. This is attributed to the hydrogen bond interaction formed between the amino and catechol groups in the ...
