Evaluation of the Adequacy of Using the Supraglottic Airway Device (i-gel®) in Cases With Epiglottic Masses: A Mannequin Simulation Study.
Cureus
November 2024
Anesthesiology and Critical Care, Kindai University Faculty of Medicine, Osaka, JPN.
Background: Epiglottic masses are often asymptomatic, making them difficult to detect during preoperative examinations. Consequently, anesthesiologists may face ventilation difficulties with no apparent cause. Epiglottic masses can sometimes obstruct laryngoscope insertion into the epiglottic vallecula, complicating general anesthesia induction.

Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Kantonsspital Baselland, Liestal, Switzerland.
Purpose: To explore the interobserver reliability of drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) for patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) of two classification systems.
Methods: DISE examinations were recorded digitally for all patients and were evaluated independently by five examiners blinded to all patient data. Areas of obstruction were rated using VOTE (velum, oropharynx lateral wall, tongue base, epiglottis) classification and PTLTbE (palate, tonsils, lateral pharyngeal wall, tongue base, epiglottis) classification.
A Comparison of Airway Ultrasound and Clinical Parameters for Predicting Difficult Laryngoscopy in the Emergency Department: A Study Protocol.
Cureus
September 2024
Department of Orthopedics, Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Datta Meghe Institute of Higher Education and Research, Wardha, IND.
Background: Airway assessment plays an important part in airway management. Over the years, ultrasound has emerged as an alternative modality for airway assessment. We aim to assess the accuracy of clinical parameters, ultrasonographic upper airway parameters, and laryngoscopic grade, using the Cormack-Lehane classification, to predict difficult laryngoscopy in the emergency department (ED).
