Tracheoesophageal fistula as a complication of prolonged endotracheal intubation
Introduction: Tracheoesophageal fistula following prolonged endotracheal intubation is a serious lesion with high morbidity and mortality. The high index of suspicion, early diagnosis, resolution of complications and definitive surgical treatment are the

Prolonged Endotracheal Intubation [PDF]
INITIALLY machanical assistance, and presently full control of respiration, has been accepted as fundamental in the therapy of respiratory failure. The primary requirement is a patent airway of adequate size. An oral or nasal pharyngeal airway and mouth to mouth resuscitation may be adequate for short-term assistance, but this is esthetically ...

Prolonged Intubation: An Alternative to Tracheosto my in Infants [PDF]
In 12 patients, ranging in age from newborn to 4 years, endotracheal intubation has been used as a substitute for tracheostomy. Using plastic tubes it was possible to maintain a good airway for periods of up to 7 weeks. Painstaking care was necessary to prevent the tubes becoming blocked or malpositioned. The tubes were tolerated well.

PROLONGED (THERAPEUTIC) ENDOTRACHEAL INTUBATION
SUMMARY In recent years there has been an increased use of therapeutic intubation. It is especially useful in conscious patients postoperatively for periods of a day or so when the need for respiratory assistance is short-lived. It can be utilized for many days but the likelihood of laryngeal damage is probably increased, although in the individual ...

ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

Objective The objective of this study was to describe the longitudinal disease course and pulmonary outcomes of North American patients with melanoma differentiation–associated protein 5 (MDA5) antibody–associated dermatomyositis (DM). Methods Thirty patients with MDA5 antibody–associated DM were identified in a single‐center longitudinal cohort of 352
