“Cannot ventilate cannot Intubate” Newborns
In any event, ventilation of the newborn must be realized with an appropriate technique within the period till the achievement of emergency tracheostomy, provision of successful intubation, or wakening of the newborn. Every anesthesiologist should be wellinformed of and familiar with at least one technique for ensuring transtracheal oxygenation in emergencies. It is also important to have the r...
متن کاملCannot ventilate, difficult to intubate.
EDITOR: We read with interest the letter by Slater and Bhatia [1] and would like to congratulate them on their successful management. We agree that the safest approach for their patient would have been an awake fibreoptic intubation. However, we would like to make a few comments. From the history and picture, it is not clear whether the patient had a prosthesis fitted into the left orbital cavi...
متن کاملNeonatal noninvasive ventilation techniques: do we really need to intubate?
The current trend for supporting neonates with respiratory distress syndrome is nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Nearly half of all neonates who are supported with CPAP will still develop respiratory failure that requires potentially injurious endotracheal intubation and invasive ventilation. Thus, the role of any neonatal clinician is to minimize invasive ventilation whenever...
متن کاملRescue ventilation: resolving a "cannot mask ventilate, cannot intubate" situation during exchange of a Combitube for a definitive airway.
Our anesthesia care team was called to care for a patient who was admitted to the emergency department with the esophageal-tracheal double-lumen airway device (Combitube, Tyco Healthcare, Nellcor, Pleasanton, California) in place, which needed to be exchanged for a definitive airway because the patient required an extended period of mechanical ventilation. Several techniques were attempted to e...
متن کاملSugammadex and the cannot intubate / cannot ventilate scenario in patients with predicted difficult airway ( 1 )
Editor—Curtis and colleagues presented an interesting case in which a patient with anticipated difficult intubation was paralysed with rocuronium and developed a cannot intubate/cannot ventilate (CI/CV) situation. Sugammadex was administered, resulting in successful recovery of the patient’s motor strength, but ventilation was still impossible, presumably due to swelling of the airway and bleed...
