Fiberoptic bronchoscopic guidance in percutaneous dilational tracheotomy
AbstractObjectiveBlind percutaneous dilational tracheotomy (PDT) holds a lot of peri-operative complications. A lot of assisting tools have long been used to facilitate guidance during PDT, e.g., laryngeal mask airway (LMA), ultrasound (US) imaging of the neck, light wand for trans-illumination of the soft tissues of the neck, and flexible fiberoptic ...

Introduction: Scrub typhus is an acute infectious disease caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi, whose pathophysiology is characterized by systemic small‐vessel vasculitis. Its high misdiagnosis rate stems from its nonspecific clinical features. If not diagnosed and treated in time, patients may rapidly progress to multiorgan dysfunction syndrome (MODS) or ...

OffsetNet: Deep Learning for Localization in the Lung using Rendered Images [PDF]
Navigating surgical tools in the dynamic and tortuous anatomy of the lung's airways requires accurate, real-time localization of the tools with respect to the preoperative scan of the anatomy. Such localization can inform human operators or enable closed-loop control by autonomous agents, which would require accuracy not yet reported in the literature.

Objective: Lung recruitment maneuvers (RMs) is an important treatment for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients; however, assessing lung recruitability is imperative to avoid biotrauma and hemodynamic instability. This study aims to investigate whether the cytokine levels in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of ARDS patients can ...

Autonomous Driving in the Lung using Deep Learning for Localization [PDF]
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and early diagnosis is critical to improving patient outcomes. To diagnose cancer, a highly trained pulmonologist must navigate a flexible bronchoscope deep into the branched structure of the lung for biopsy.

An Unusual Cause of Failure of Fiberoptic Intubation due to Continuous Suctioning: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Flexible fiberoptic intubation is the gold standard technique during difficult airway management. Failure of fiberoptic intubation could be due to patient factors, equipment factors, and operator expertise. We present a case where fiberoptic intubation was unsuccessful because of equipment error following continuous suction pressure ...

A 28-year-old male patient with occipito-atlanto-axial instability underwent a cervical fusion with posterior technique. Post-operatively, the endotracheal tube (ETT) was removed, and the patient was transferred to the intensive care unit. After transfer,

Chemical burns account for a small percentage of burn patients, and there are even fewer burn patients suffering from chemical burns combined with inhalation injury. This case reports the treatment process of a patient who sustained an inhalation injury due to exposure to reactive substances and developed third‐ to fourth‐grade airway stenosis and ...
