Awake Blue Laser Excision and Balloon Dilation of Oropharyngeal Stenosis in High‐Risk Patients
Abstract Oropharyngeal stenosis is a rare condition that can develop following head and neck cancer treatment, leading to progressive dyspnea, dysphagia, and dysphonia. Patients with symptomatic dyspnea may benefit from endoscopic surgery. However, head and neck cancer survivors can have severe trismus, limited neck extension, and altered laryngeal ...

Beyond the Larynx: New Insights Into Upper Airway Responses to Mechanical Insufflation–Exsufflation
Upper airway responses to mechanical insufflation–exsufflation extend beyond the larynx and are strongly influenced by device settings and cervical posture. Transnasal flexible laryngoscopy and videofluoroscopy revealed that lower inspiratory flow and shorter expiratory time preserved airway patency and minimized oesophageal insufflation in bulbar ALS.

Inter‐Rater Reliability in Pre‐Anaesthetic Airway Assessment: A Protocol for a Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Background Pre‐anaesthetic airway assessment relies on subjective clinical judgement, whether performed through direct physical examination, such as Mallampati classification or thyromental distance, or through composite scoring systems that combine several such components, including the Simplified Airway Risk Index, the El‐Ganzouri Risk Index
