Opening the upper airway--airway maneuvers in pediatric anesthesia.
Maintenance of a patent airway is the most important aspect of the safe administration of anesthesia in children. However, in spontaneously breathing, anesthetized children, upper airway obstruction is a frequent problem (1) and failure to maintain a patent airway can rapidly result in hypoxemia, bradycardia or even cardiac arrest. Upper airway narrowing is most likely to appear in pharyngeal s...
متن کاملThe difficult airway in office-based anesthesia.
The skills required to anticipate and manage a difficult airway are very important skills that the anesthesia provider must possess. However, it is axiomatic that the night before surgery, the patient was breathing room air unassisted by any devices. (Note that this discussion excludes the sleep apnea patient who requires a continuous positive airway pressure device.) It is therefore anesthesia...
متن کاملAirway anesthesia: theory and practice.
Topical anesthesia of the airway is a necessary for awake intubation and is usually achieved using lidocaine delivered by various means. Although some experts favor the use of airway blocks, a more common approach is to use pure topical methods in combination with "spray as you go" techniques.

متن کاملAnesthesia, sleep, and upper airway collapsibility.
Anesthesia and sleep both predispose to upper airway obstruction through state-induced reductions in pharyngeal dilator muscle activation and lung volume. The tendencies are related in patients with obstructive sleep apnea commonly presenting with difficulties in airway management in the perioperative period. This is a period of great potential vulnerability for such patients because of comprom...
