A novel cricoid pressure sensor device enhances the efficacy of oesophageal occlusion during Sellick's manoeuvre: A randomised controlled trial.
Eur J Anaesthesiol

Background: The inability to measure the force applied during cricoid pressure is an important limitation in clinical practice. We developed a novel device to measure this force and provide real-time feedback to the operator.
Objectives: To test the hypothesis of superior oesophageal occlusion during cricoid pressure when guided by the novel device as compared with conventional practice.

The Sellick maneuver is used for endotracheal intubation to prevent the occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux. The aim of the present study was to observe the effect of the Sellick maneuver on safety, esophageal closure status, gastric mucosal fold extension status, and positive detection rate of lesions in patients with esophageal hiatal hernia under painless gastroscopy. A total of 40 patients with esophageal hiatal hernia who underwent painless gastroscopy were screened for the use of the Sellick maneuver, in which the operator applied pressure to the cervical cricoid cartilage during the examination.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to identify factors that complicate the insertion of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) probes in cardiac surgery patients.
- Of the 153 patients analyzed, 27.5% experienced difficulties during TEE probe placement, with males and obese individuals being significantly more affected.
- Key predictive factors for challenging probe insertion included male gender, obesity (BMI > 30), and higher Mallampati (MMC) and Cormack-Lehane (MCLG) scores.
