A low-cost, helmet-based, non-invasive ventilator for COVID-19 [PDF]
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has created an unprecedented need for breathing assistance devices. Since the demand for commercial, full-featured ventilators is far higher than the supply capacity, many rapid-response ventilators are being developed for invasive mechanical ventilation of patients.

Airway Protection with the ProSeal Laryngeal Mask Airway [PDF]
The ProSeal laryngeal mask airway is a new laryngeal mask device that has a modified cuff and a drainage tube. We describe a case where the ProSeal laryngeal mask successfully channelled regurgitated fluid away from the respiratory tract.

ABSTRACT Background Midazolam is commonly used and effective in reducing preoperative anxiety in children. Nonpharmacological interventions, such as video distraction, are also well established for alleviating preoperative anxiety in pediatric patients, particularly those treated in ambulatory settings.

Negative pressure pulmonary oedema following use of ProSeal LMA
Negative pressure pulmonary oedema (NPPO) is a life threatening condition, manifested due to upper airway obstruction in a spontaneously breathing patient. Upper airway obstruction caused by classic laryngeal mask airway (cLMA) and ProSeal laryngeal mask

Airway measurement by refinement of synthetic images improves mortality prediction in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]
Several chronic lung diseases, like idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are characterised by abnormal dilatation of the airways. Quantification of airway features on computed tomography (CT) can help characterise disease progression. Physics based airway measurement algorithms have been developed, but have met with limited success in part due to the ...

Perinatal Airway Management Mandibular Anomalies: A National Inpatient Cohort Analysis
Mandibular anomalies can present with airway obstruction at birth and if patency is not quickly established, neonatal hypoxic complications or death occur. Advanced mobilization or airway intervention during sustained placental support can mitigate risk; however, the techniques can increase risks to the pregnant person.

OxyJet: Design and Evaluation of A Low-Cost Precision Venturi Based Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) System [PDF]
The Covid-19 pandemic has strained the hospital systems in many countries in the world, especially in developing countries. In many low-resource hospitals, severely ill hypoxemic Covid-19 patients are treated with various forms of low-flow oxygen therapy (0-15 L/min), including interfaces such as a nasal cannula, Hudson mask, venturi-mask, and non ...
