Article Synopsis
  • Tracheal intubations in the ICU face challenges like poor glottic view and higher complication rates; this study compares the efficacy of two videolaryngoscope (VL) types: the standard Macintosh blade versus a hyperangulated blade.
  • The INtubation VIdeolaryngoscopy BLADE-ICU trial is a randomized, controlled study conducted across 29 ICUs in Spain, focusing on first-attempt intubation success as the primary outcome, along with other measures like time to intubation and complication rates.
  • The study has ethical approval and aims to improve airway management outcomes, with patient enrollment starting in May 2024 and anticipated results to be published in 2025.

New developments in the application of artificial intelligence to laryngology.

Curr Opin Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg

December 2024

Sean Parker Institute for the Voice, Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Weill Cornell Medicine.

Purpose Of Review: The purpose of this review is to summarize the existing literature on artificial intelligence technology utilization in laryngology, highlighting recent advances and current barriers to implementation.

Recent Findings: The volume of publications studying applications of artificial intelligence in laryngology has rapidly increased, demonstrating a strong interest in utilizing this technology. Vocal biomarkers for disease screening, deep learning analysis of videolaryngoscopy for lesion identification, and auto-segmentation of videofluoroscopy for detection of aspiration are a few of the new ways in which artificial intelligence is poised to transform clinical care in laryngology.

Despite the National Occupational Safety and Legislation Act 2020's implementation, reports of workplace accidents are rising in India. Various ear, nose, and throat conditions have been linked to a wide range of physico-chemical variables. Due to a lack of training, inadequate knowledge, a lack of awareness of occupational health and safety risks, or a lack of accessibility to or use of personal protective equipment (PPE), sculptors are frequently exposed to a variety of physical, compound and unplanned risks, chemical, and accidental hazards.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the use of muscle-derived motor-endplate expressing cells (MEEs) as a potential injectable treatment for unilateral vocal fold paralysis resulting from recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury, since no curative options currently exist.
  • In Yucatan minipigs, researchers performed RLN transections, then injected either MEEs or saline into the affected vocal fold, monitoring recovery through various assessments like electromyography and vocalization data over 7 weeks.
  • Results showed that MEE injections led to better vocal fold performance, reduced inflammation, and higher retention of nerve activity compared to saline, suggesting MEEs may promote nerve regeneration and improve vocal function, but further research is
