Comparison Between VCV and FCV Through Ultra-thin Tube in Upper Airway Surgery
Ventilation Therapy; ComplicationsTracheaVentilation through the small endotracheal tube is not an uncommon situation. The indications for it differ from elective upper airway surgery to emergency ventilation through needle cricothyrotomy. Conventionally, ventilation through small endotracheal tubes has been challenging by jet ventilation with subsequent risk of barotrauma and inadequate gas exchange. Expiration during jet ventilation occurs passively.
Tracheobronchial Bioengineering Using Aortic Matrices for Airway Reconstruction
Tracheal DiseaseA technic of tracheal, carinal or bronchial transplantation using a stented cryopreserved aortic has been implemented by Pr E. Martinod in his thoracic surgery dept. The purpose of this study is to analyze the records of all the patients who have benefited from this treatment.
Simplification and Implementation of Awake Fibreoptic Orotracheal Intubation
AnesthesiaTrachea1 moreAwake fibreoptic intubation (AFOI) is a classic and standard method for some special patients which is also difficult for anesthesiologists to learn and master. The procedure is sometimes hard and often takes about 20-30 min. Most of patients have a strong sense of discomfort. Investigators conducted the research to study the simplification and feasibility of AFOI.
Bacterial Colonization in Tracheostomized Patients With Neurological or Neuromuscular Disease
Infectious Disorder of TracheaRespiratory Tract Infections1 morePatients with neurological or neuromuscular diseases may need a long-term tracheostomy to improve their respiratory function. Bacterial flora and bacterial drug resistance in the respiratory tract have never been studied until then for this type of patient in spite of their frequent hospital stay, their regular exposition to antibiotics and their susceptibility to swallowing disorders due to their pathology. This study is based on a single tracheal aspirate within the 48 first hours of the patient stay for a ventilation check up beside any infectious context to describe the basal bacterial respiratory flora.
