Intubation Time Required for Tracheal Intubation with Low Dose Rocuronium in Children with and without Atropine
… The purpose of this study was to determine the intubation time needed to facilitate tracheal intubation (TimeEI) with a low dose of rocuronium (0.3 mg/kg) during propofol induction and to determine whether this time was reduced by administration of atropine. METHODS: Forty-six children, aged …

An investigation of endotracheal intubation and alternative intubation devices for use by paramedics in out-of-hospital care
… and can be achieved through endotracheal intubation (ETI). This said, there is debate around whether ETI is required during cardiac arrest (CA) management with arguments for and against whether CA outcomes are improved when ETI takes place. There is further debate as to whether paramedics …

A Model to Predict Pre-Hospital Endotracheal Intubation Success
<p>Background: Pre-hospital endotracheal intubation (ETI) is one of the most critical skills performed by paramedics and is considered the “gold standard” of airway management. Pre-hospital ETI success rates are variable, ranging from 33% to 100% across EMS systems in the U.S. Previous …

Hemodynamic Changes after Endotracheal Intubation with Colloid Loading in Patients with Cerebral Aneurysm
"마취유도 시 후두경 조작과 기도삽관은 환자에게 고혈압과 빈맥을 유발할 수 있다(Morgan, 2006). 뇌동맥류 환자에서 고혈압과 빈맥은 뇌동맥류의 파열을 야기할 수 있고 이는 환자의 치사율을 증가 시키므로(Mendleson, 1946) 뇌동맥류 파열 방지를 위하여 혈역학적 변화를 최소화하는 것은 중요하다. Sevoflurane을 사용한 마취유도 시 적정농도는 2.5% (1.5 MAC)이라고 알려져 있으며 이 농도에서는 기도삽관에 의한 고혈압과 빈맥의 빈도는 줄일 수 있으나, 심한 저혈압을 초래할 수 있다. 뇌동맥류 환자 마취 …

Factors related to successful weaning from mechanical ventilation in endo-tracheal intubation patients
… gender, age, medical department, day of intubation. 3.There was significant difference between the success group and the failure group according to the experience of T-piece training before weaning(χ2= 5.782, p=. 016). 4.There were significant differences between the success group and the …

Use of Biomechanical Motion Analysis to Evaluate Endotracheal Intubation Skill in a Simulated Clinical Setting
… medical personnel performing endotracheal intubation in a simulated clinical setting. Few objective measures exist that quantify the differences in intubation techniques between providers of various skill levels. These measures are inadequate for providing useful feedback towards training …

Effects of a Heating Compress on Self-reported Sore Throat following Endotracheal Intubation for Anesthesia
… self-reported sore throat following endotracheal intubation.</p> <p>The null hypothesis stated that a heating compress to the throat would have no significant (alpha = 0.05) effect on the reduction of self-reported postoperative sore throat following endotracheal intubation for anesthesia. A …

Rapid sequence intubation: a survey of current practice in the South African pre-hospital setting
Background: Rapid sequence intubation (RSI) is an advanced airway skill commonly performed in the pre-hospital setting globally. In South Africa, pre-hospital RSI was first approved for non-physician providers by the Health Professions Council of South Africa in 2009 and introduced as part of the …

Intubation during spinal motion restriction using the Lubo TM cervical collar a minikin simulation study
… airway patency. In addition, tracheal intubation is facilitated by releasing an anterior chin strap; this allows better mouth opening than the previous generation of semi-rigid cervical collars. This study aimed to compare tracheal intubation using the Lubo TM collar combined with …

The Effect of Atropine on the Bispectral Index Response to Endotracheal Intubation during Propofol and Remifentanil Anesthesia
… of the peripheral nerve system by endotracheal intubation is accompanied by an increase in bispectral index (BIS). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of atropine on the BIS response to endotracheal intubation during anaesthetic induction with propofol and remifentanil target …

A retrospective review of post-intubation sedation and analgesia practices in a South African private ambulance service
Introduction: Adequate post-intubation sedation and analgesia (PISA) practices are important in the pre-hospital setting where vibration and noise of the transport vehicle may contribute to anxiety and pain in the patient. Inadequate post-intubation practices may lead to long-term detrimental …

Prehospital advanced airway management practices by advanced life support providers: A retrospective observational study of emergency medical service providers in South Africa
Introduction: The skill of endotracheal intubation to achieve a definitive airway for critically ill and injured patients in the prehospital setting is frequently performed by advanced life support providers. Several methods may be utilised, including intubation without the use of medication, the …

Prehospital endotracheal intubation practices by paramedics in the provincial ambulance service of the Western Cape province of South Africa
It is well-established that endotracheal intubation in the field is associated with a considerably greater degree of difficulty, and a much higher complication and failure rate than intubation undertaken in the operating-theatre environment. The reasons for this are many-fold, have been quantified …

Hemodynamic Changes after Endotracheal Iintubation with a Lightwand or a Laryngoscope in Patients with Cerebral Aneurysm
Laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation induce the patients airway reflexes and lead to hypertension and tachycardia. The changes during intubation may cause a rupture of cerebral aneurysm and increase the risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage. It is reported that tracheal intubation with lightwand results …
