Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

Comparison of non-invasive haemodynamic monitors of stress response to endo-tracheal intubation with perfusion index in patients undergoing elective surgery

Journal of Society of Surgeons of Nepal, 2020
Introduction: Laryngoscopy and intubation is always associated with a short term reflex sympathetic pressor response. The perfusion index is an indirect, non-invasive, and continuous measure of peripheral perfusion by pulse oximeter which can detect the ...

Cold Exposure to the Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve: A Porcine Continuous Intraoperative Neuromonitoring Model Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tissue exposure to cold temperatures is common in clinical practice, yet the safety of exposing the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) to cold remains unclear. This study evaluated temperature‐dependent effects of cold exposure on RLN function.

Comparison of Tracheal Intubation Using the Air-Q ILA and LMA Blockbuster Among Adults Undergoing Elective Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Turkish Journal of Anaesthesiology and Reanimation
Objective: Air-Q intubating laryngeal airway (ILA) is associated with a 58-77% success rate in blind intubation. The newer laryngeal mask airway (LMA) blockbuster is specially designed to facilitate easier endotracheal intubation and may have a higher ...

GlideScope and Frova Introducer for Difficult Airway Management

Case Reports in Anesthesiology, 2013
The introduction into clinical practice of new tools for intubation as videolaringoscopia has dramatically improved the success rate of intubation and the work of anesthesiologists in what is considered the most delicate maneuver. Nevertheless intubation

MEK Inhibitor Associated Airway Injury in an Infant With Noonan Syndrome: A Case Report

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
An infant with Noonan syndrome treated with trametinib developed extensive mucosal sloughing of the upper and lower airway, followed by severe supraglottic scarring. Clinicians should consider airway toxicity as a potential adverse effect of MEK inhibitor therapy.

A Scoping Review of Laryngeal Edema Rating Scales for Extubated Acute Respiratory Failure Survivors

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This scoping review identified existing laryngeal edema rating scales and evaluated whether any are adequately designed for post‐extubation acute respiratory failure (ARF) survivors. Across 35 included studies, most used subjective binary classifications and only the RTOG and Patterson Edema scales had operational definitions and reliability/validity ...

Bispectral index in poisoning cases with multi-drug ingestion: A predictable role for early endotracheal intubation

Journal of Research in Pharmacy Practice, 2018
Objective: Bispectral index (BIS) is one of the several methods used to monitor the depth of anesthesia. Poisoning with ingestion of different drugs is one of the most common poisonings that have different clinical signs from drowsiness to coma.
