متن کاملBlind nasal intubation as an alternative to difficult intubation approaches
Airway difficulties are a major concern for anesthesiologists.

Additionally, fiberoptic bronchoscopy is not available at every medical...
متن کاملAppropriate head position for nasotracheal intubation by using lightwand device (Trachlight).
The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the head position and the subsequent ease of nasotracheal intubation by using the lightwand device Trachlight (TL). Patients requiring nasotracheal intubation were subdivided into 3 groups according to the intubated head position (group S: sniffing position; group E: extension position; and group N: neutral position). The numbe...
