Technique training: endoscopic percutaneous tracheostomy.
Percutaneous tracheostomy is being used increasingly in the intensive care unit and endoscopic control of this procedure affords an improved level of safety. Training in such new minimal access techniques can be a significant risk factor in patient outcome. Surgical simulation provides training which minimizes this risk. We present a method of training in percutaneous endoscopic tracheostomy us...
متن کاملPercutaneous Dilatational Tracheostomy via Griggs Technique.
BACKGROUND Tracheostomy is considered the airway management of choice for patients who need prolonged mechanical ventilation support. Percutaneous Dilatational Tracheotomy (PDT) is a technique that can be performed easily and rapidly at bedside and is particularly useful in the intensive care setting. The Griggs percutaneous tracheotomy is unique in its utilization of a guide wire dilator force...
متن کاملEvaluation of a modified percutaneous tracheostomy technique without bronchoscopic guidance.
BACKGROUND Most complications of percutaneous tracheostomy are caused by failure to cannulate the trachea and injury to surrounding structures. Traditionally, the procedure has been performed under bronchoscopic assistance, which may interfere with the patient's ventilation and is cumbersome. A modification was described in which the subcutaneous tissue is bluntly dissected with a hemostat down...
متن کاملBalloon-facilitated percutaneous dilational tracheostomy tube placement: preliminary report of a novel technique.
OBJECTIVE To describe a novel technique for percutaneous tracheotomy (PT) that could be an alternative to current dilational techniques. DESIGN An observational animal study of PT was performed using the Seldinger guide wire technique with a tracheostomy tube preloaded onto a dilational balloon catheter. A small skin incision was done with an 11-blade scalpel, but no blunt subcutaneous tissue...
متن کاملMicrosurgical technique for tracheostomy in the rat
Tracheostomy is used to obtain airway access to allow for mechanical ventilation in experimental animal models. We present a microsurgical atlas of our technique for tracheostomy in the adult rat.
