Awake fibreoptic intubation (AFOI) remains a critical technique in managing difficult airways, particularly when conventional methods pose increased risks. This approach utilises a flexible fibreoptic ...
Across awake tracheal intubations using videolaryngoscopy for suspected difficult airways, the overall success rate was high. Overall or first-attempt success rates did not differ between ...
In nonintubated patients with COVID-related hypoxemic respiratory failure, daily awake prone positioning (APP) for 6 hours showed a more than 90% probability of reducing intubation and/or death ...
Use of hyperangulated video laryngoscopy reduced the number of attempts needed to achieve endotracheal intubation compared with direct laryngoscopy among adults undergoing elective or emergent ...
Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Video vs. direct laryngoscopy prevents first attempt intubation failure in about one out of every seven patients ...
Data showed that survival without intubation was improved with APP, compared to supine positioning. The risk of intubation and hospital mortality were also reduced with APP. Additionally, the time ...
Whether video laryngoscopy as compared with direct laryngoscopy increases the likelihood of successful tracheal intubation on the first attempt among critically ill adults is uncertain. In a ...
Among critically ill adults undergoing tracheal intubation, hypoxemia increases the risk of cardiac arrest and death. The effect of preoxygenation with noninvasive ventilation, as compared with ...
