Airway management in a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS): a retrospective observational study of 365 out-of-hospital intubations

open access: yesBMC Emergency Medicine, 2022
Background Airway management is a key skill in any helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS). Intubation is successful less often than in the hospital, and alternative forms of airway management are more often needed.

Non‐Invasive Multidimensional Capacitive Sensing for In Vivo Traumatic Brain Injury Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Single‐electrode, multidimensional capacitive sensors noninvasively assess cerebral autoregulation and compliance for traumatic brain injury monitoring. ABSTRACT Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability, but invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is risky, and current non‐invasive methods lack the resolution and ...

Thyromental height test as a new method for prediction of difficult intubation with double lumen tube

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Background Predicting difficult intubation is of high clinical interest. Methods 237 patients aged ≥18 years were included in the study. Preoperative airway evaluation included: Mallampati test, thyromental distance, sternomental distance and thyromental

Vm–MSI: a Vancomycin–Antimicrobial Peptide Conjugate Combating Resistant Bacteria and Broadening the Antimicrobial Spectrum

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A series of vancomycin‐antimicrobial peptide conjugates is synthesized and evaluated to identify the optimal combination. Vm‐MSI, selected from multiple candidates, exhibited potent activity against vancomycin‐resistant and Gram‐negative bacteria by disrupting membranes and inducing oxidative stress, thereby expanding vancomycin's antibacterial ...

Comparison of the effectiveness between c-mac d-blade and glidescope for tracheal intubation in patients with cervical spine immobilisation simulated by a semi-rigid collar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objective: Among the technique for cervical spine immobilisation is putting on semi-rigid collar but it renders difficult tracheal intubation. In this study, our aim is to compare the effectiveness of two available videolaryngoscopes meant for difficult ...

Does neck circumference help to predict difficult intubation in obstetric patients? A prospective observational study

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2018
Background: Failed intubation in obstetrics remains the most common cause of death directly related to anesthesia. Neck circumference has been shown to be a predictor for difficult intubation in morbidly obese patients.
