Objectives: We compared adverse airway events during esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) in children managed with insufflation vs intubation.
Background: Optimum airway management during EGD in children remains undecided.
Methods/materials: Following IRB approval and written informed parental consent, children between 1 and 12 years of age presenting for EGD were randomized to airway management with insufflation (Group I), intubation/awake extubation (Group A), or intubation/deep extubation (Group D).
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the link between carbohydrate-deficient glycoprotein syndrome Type 1a (CDGS Type 1a) and spinal deformities, presenting three case reports.
- CDGS Type 1a is a rare genetic disorder that can lead to various health issues, including spinal problems, and the cases indicate that surgical intervention is sometimes necessary for these patients.
- Early assessment for CDGS Type 1a in young patients with spinal deformities and related symptoms is crucial for improving treatment outcomes.
