Insufflation

Surgical Endoscopy, 1995
This article focuses on complications in colonoscopy related to colonic insufflation. Causes of colonic insufflation complications are examined and methods that may be used to minimize complications are proposed. Testing of state-of-the-art video colonoscope systems is the basis of this analysis of insufflation complications and the resulting ...

Tracheal Gas Insufflation

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2000
Tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) is an adjunct to mechanical ventilation that reduces CO (2) present in the anatomic deadspace. This is accomplished by flowing fresh gas (typically 6-10 lpm) directly into the trachea via a catheter placed into the endotracheal tube positioned at the distal end or by an embedded catheter in the wall of a specially ...

MIDDLE EAR INSUFFLATION

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1971
To the Editor .—Recent reports from this laboratory have dealt with rupture of the tympanic membrane and death or serious complications in guinea pigs resulting from excessive air pressure within the middle ear space. 1,2 In this animal it was not possible to demonstrate ventilation of the middle ear space by the eustachian tube.

Maximum Insufflation Capacity

Chest, 2000
To investigate the effect of deep lung insufflations on maximum insufflation capacities (MICs) and peak cough flows (PCFs) for patients with neuromuscular disease.Forty-three patients with neuromuscular disease were trained in stacking delivered volumes of air to deep lung insufflation and were prescribed a program of air stacking once their vital ...

Insufflation Esophagoscopy

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1978
A new electroscope has been designed from the conventional Haslinger tubes. The new rigid scope combines the advantage of air insufflation in the flexible system with the therapeutic possibilities of the rigid tubes and is trustworthy in the following esophageal procedures: a) finding entrance of severe strictures; b) introducing nasogastric feeding ...

INTRALARYNGEAL INSUFFLATION.

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1900
HISTORY OF PULMONARY INSUFFLATION AS APPLIED TO THE SURGERY OF THE CHEST. It is difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain to whom belongs the credit of first suggesting the value of pulmonary insufflation in thoracic surgery. It is probable that the same thought occurred to many observers who were interested in the same problem simultaneously.

Benchtop evaluation of pressure barrier insufflator and standard insufflator systems

Surgical Endoscopy, 2012
Previous experimental research has reported minimal differences in pressure maintenance between different versions of standard insufflators (SI). However, a recent report identified potential clinical benefits with a valveless pressure barrier insufflator (PBI).
