Abstract:
Background Endotracheal and nasogastric tubes are recognized risk factors for nosocomial sinusitis. The extent to which these tubes affect the overall incidence of nosocomial sinusitis in acute care hospitals is unknown. Objective To use data for 2008 through 2013 from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample database to compare the incidence of sinusitis in patients with nasogastric tubes with that in patients with an endotracheal tube alone or with both an endotracheal tube and a nasogastric tube.

A prospective study evaluated potential risk factors associated with laryngeal Injury after prolonged endotracheal tube intubation for longer than 3 days. Ninety-seven patients were evaluated after oral endotrachael tube intubation (mean, 9 days). This study updates a previously reported evaluation of 44 patients. The additional sample size has provided findings of unreported patient risk factors of laryngeal injury and confirmation of previous associations.

Abstract:
A major problem in the care of premature and other newborn infants is obtaining and maintaining correct position of an endotracheal tube. Improper placement of the distal tip of the endotracheal tube above the larynx or below the carina is a life-threatening hazard that not only impairs ventilation, but also may result in serious pulmonary complications such as lobar atelectasis and air leak. This problem was addressed by testing the hypothesis that a light source at the end of the endotracheal tube could be seen on the neck and chest and that, therefore, the endotracheal tube could be positio

Background It has been reported that, in children breathing spontaneously via an endotracheal tube, halothane depresses ventilation with paradoxic inspiratory movement. Endotracheal tubes have a higher airflow resistance than do laryngeal mask airways (LMAs).

Reinforced endotracheal tubes are designed with a metal spiral to reduce the risk of kinking or compression. They are commonly used in head and neck surgeries, including neurosurgery. However, these tubes are not immune to obstruction. In this report, we present three cases of reinforced endotracheal tube obstruction in pediatric patients undergoing neurosurgical procedures. In the first case, obstruction was likely due to biting; in the third, to tube manipulation. In the second case, no clear cause was identified, suggesting the possibility of pre-existing tube deformities. These observation

The stabilization of endotracheal tubes in the burn population presents many problems.

To prevent these complications, alternative methods using the dentition to stabilize the endotracheal tube have been described.

To the Editor.— The use of illuminated endotracheal tubes as described by Drs Heller and Cotton may represent a significant advance. In addition to decreasing radiation exposures and costs thereof with initial intubations, there may be an additional saving by identifying endotracheal tubes that have come out of position, either riding up too high, or, more commonly, slipping down into a mainstem bronchus.

In Reply.— We agree with Dr Bloch that auscultation is a primary tool for determinig appropriate position of an endotracheal tube. However, experience in a busy neonatal intensive care unit has shown that, even with careful auscultation, endotracheal tubes still become inappropriately positioned, often with serious consequences. Our experience has been that the illuminated endotracheal tube provides a clear indication of depth of penetration when asymmetric lung disease may cause auscultatory findings to be equivocal.

A test was devised and evaluated to distinguish between placing an endotracheal tube in the trachea and in the oesophagus.

Abstract:
This study evaluated two methods of endotracheal tube selection using 28 fresh canine carcasses of various ages, weights, and genders. The two selection methods were 1) nasal septal width pairing with outer diameter of an endotracheal tube, and 2) digital palpation of the tracheal outer diameter to determine the endotracheal tube size. All dogs were dolichocephalic breeds. Results of this study showed that the canine nasal septal width method of endotracheal tube selection was correlated with the size of the tracheal internal (r=0.72) and outer (r=0.73) diameters. However, evidence shows that

Background Although the study of respiratory microbiota has been an active field of research, obtaining the appropriate respiratory samples for healthy controls remains to be a challenge. As such, this study aims to evaluate the use of endotracheal tube washing as a viable control for sputum samples. Methods A total of 14 subjects, including 8 healthy respiratory controls and 6 diabetic patients without any respiratory disease, were enrolled in this study, during which the endotracheal tubes used in their scheduled routine surgery were collected. Pre-operative oral gargles were also collected

Abstract:
The classification of airway stenoses has been a problem for many years. As a result, both intradepartmental and interdepartmental comparisons of airway sizes remain difficult. It follows that comparisons of therapeutic maneuvers are even more difficult. A system is proposed that is simple, reproducible, and based on a readily available reference standard. Endotracheal tubes, which are manufactured to high standards of precision and accuracy, can be used to determine the size of an obstructed airway at its smallest point. The endotracheal tube that will pass through the lumen, if one exists, a

Abstract:
Background: The accurate placement of the double-lumen endotracheal tube is imperative for effective one-lung ventilation in thoracic surgery. Malpositioning and repositioning of a misplaced tube may cause excessive trauma. Objective: We hypothesized that the fiberoptic bronchoscope-guided method for double-lumen endotracheal tube placement would reduce the incidence of malpositioning as compared to the conventional method using the Macintosh laryngoscope. Methods: Fifty patients scheduled to undergo elective thoracic surgery were recruited and randomly assigned to the fiberoptic bronchoscope-

Abstract:
Breathing through an endotracheal tube, connector, and ventilator demand valve imposes an added load on the respiratory muscles. As respiratory muscle fatigue is thought to be a frequent cause of ventilator dependence, we sought to examine the efficacy of five different ventilators in reducing this imposed work through the application of pressure support ventilation. Using a model of spontaneous breathing, we examined the apparatus work imposed by the Servo 900-C, Puritan Bennett 7200a, Engstrom Erica, Drager EV-A or Hamilton Veolar ventilators, a size 7.0 and 8.0 mm endotracheal tube, and ins

Purpose. This study aimed to compare intubation performances among i-gel blind intubation (IGI), i-gel bronchoscopic intubation (IBRI), and intubation using Macintosh laryngoscope (MCL) applying two kinds of endotracheal tube during chest compressions. We hypothesized that IGI using wire-reinforced silicone (WRS) tube could achieve endotracheal intubation most rapidly and successfully. Methods. In 23 emergency physicians, a prospective randomized crossover manikin study was conducted to examine the three intubation techniques using two kinds of endotracheal tubes.

Complications from endotracheal tube introducer are rare and mostly involved mechanical trauma to airway structures. We report a rare complication while using endotracheal tube introducer during difficult airway management, which, we believed it was fragile after repeated sterilization. Letter to the editor The endotracheal tube introducer (ETI) is an inexpensive adjunct for managing difficult airway that is effective and easy to use. Nowadays, ETI is widely used by emergency physicians and anesthesiologists during endotracheal tube intubation. Complications from ETI are rare and mostly involv
