Comparison of Video Laryngoscopy Technologies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Devices, 2009
Indirect laryngoscopy allows practitioners to “see around the corner” of a patient's airway during intubation. Inadequate airway management is a major contributor to patient injury, morbidity and mortality. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the video quality of commercially available video laryngoscopy systems.

Active Emergency Management of Adult Acute Epiglottitis: An Analysis of 570 Cases

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Acute epiglottitis, which is primarily caused by bacterial infection, can quickly progress to life‐threatening airway obstruction. The first 24 h after symptom onset is a critical window for management. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of emergency management during this period or have identified the factors that ...

The impact of video laryngoscopy on the first-pass success rate of prehospital endotracheal intubation in The Netherlands: a retrospective observational study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2022
Purpose The first-pass success rate for endotracheal intubation (ETI) depends on provider experience and exposure. We hypothesize that video laryngoscopy (VL) improves first-pass and overall ETI success rates in low and intermediate experienced airway ...

Guidelines for Essential Trauma Care: Second Edition (2026)

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Injury is a major cause of death and disability globally, with the highest burden in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Strengthening the organization and planning for trauma care (care of the injured) can improve care and lower mortality. In 2004, the International Association for Trauma Surgery and Intensive Care (IATSIC) and the World Health ...

Safer prehospital anaesthesia: updated guidelines from the Association of Anaesthetists

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Prehospital emergency anaesthesia is recognised as a high‐risk clinical intervention. These updated guidelines consider changes in prehospital practice and parallel changes in the practice of in‐hospital emergency anaesthesia, with the aim of encouraging standardised safe anaesthetic practice in a challenging clinical area.

The Value of NBI in the Detection of Local Recurrences of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma After (Chemo)radiotherapy: A Randomised Controlled Trial

open access: yesClinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Detection of local recurrences after (chemo)radiotherapy (C)RT for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is challenging due to post‐treatment mucosal changes. This study assessed the added diagnostic value of narrow band imaging (NBI) compared to white light imaging (WLI) during rigid endoscopy under general anaesthesia for ...
