Abstract Background Airway intubation is a high-risk procedure, especially in the paediatric population. Training ED healthcare providers is challenging because it is rare. Success and adverse events (AEs) could be due to patients’ illness, the health professional intubating, and hospital factors.

The secondary objective is to determine what factors are association with intubation success and related AEs. Design/Methods Retrospective chart review of patients

Background A quantitative scale of intubation difficulty would be useful for objectively comparing the complexity of endotracheal intubations. The authors have developed a quantitative score that can be used to evaluate intubating conditions and techniques with the aim of determining the relative values of predictive factors of intubation difficulty and of the techniques used to decrease such difficulties.

AbstractObjectivesRapid identification of esophageal intubations is critical to avoid patient morbidity and mortality. Continuous waveform capnography remains the gold standard for endotracheal tube (ETT) confirmation, but it has limitations. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) may be a useful alternative for confirming ETT placement. The objective of this study was to determine the accuracy of paramedic-performed POCUS identification of esophageal intubations with and without ETT manipulation.MethodsA prospective, observational study using a cadaver model was conducted.

We examined decision-making in the real-world environment of trauma patient resuscitation and anesthesia in a Level One Trauma Center. The present paper focuses on the risk factors in the trauma treatment environment that can lead to errors or misjudgments, and strategies that may be helpful in reducing these risks. Video and audio recordings were made of a number of trauma cases involving tracheal intubation, including both emergency intubations performed during resuscitation and “elective” intubations prior to surgery.

Background The Bullard laryngoscope is useful for the management of a variety of airway management scenarios. Without the aid of a video system, teaching laryngoscopy skills occurs with indirect feedback to the instructor. The purpose of this study was to determine if use of a video system would speed the process of learning the Bullard laryngoscope or improve the performance (speed or success) of its use.

Abstract:
Background Tracheal intubation is the preferred technique to secure the airway and apply mechanical ventilation. However, when performed by untrained medical personnel, tracheal intubation via direct laryngoscopy has a high rate of failure. The GlideScope (Verathon Medical Europe, Ijsselstein, Netherlands) technique improves the success rate for difficult tracheal intubation performed by experienced physicians; whether this technique improves the success rate for normal intubations when performed by inexperienced personnel as well is unknown.

IntroductionNeonatal endotracheal intubation is an essential but potentially destabilising procedure. With an increased focus on avoiding mechanical ventilation, particularly in preterm infants, there are fewer opportunities for clinicians to gain proficiency in this important emergency skill. Rates of successful intubation at the first attempt are relatively low, and adverse event rates are high, when compared with intubations in paediatric and adult populations. Interventions to improve operator success and patient stability during neonatal endotracheal intubations are needed. Using nasal hi
