Background: Nasotracheal intubation is challenging for anaesthesiologists in faciomaxillary injuries due to the anticipated difficult airways. The effectiveness of a non-channelled McGrath video laryngoscope was compared with a conventional Macintosh laryngoscope during nasotracheal intubation.
Methods: Sixty American Society of Anaesthesiologists I-II patients aged between 18 and 60 years of both sexes undergoing elective faciomaxillary surgeries from September 2019 to February 2020 were prospectively randomised into two groups (Macintosh laryngoscope Group, McGrath video laryngoscope Group) of 30.

Background: One-lung ventilation in infants is a high-risk procedure. Complications include endotracheal tube occlusion, with grave consequences. Although there are commercially available bronchoscopy simulators, there are no realistic models of infant patients.

Background: The use of general anaesthesia (GA) for caesarean delivery (CD) introduces the risk of both difficult and failed intubation. Various strategies may be utilised to reduce this risk; however, not all are supported by evidence. We analysed the rate of difficult intubation following implementation of three recommendations specific to airway management in CD.

Background: Endotracheal suctioning is a procedure used by neonatal intensive care unit nurses to maximize oxygenation and clear airways of secretions, and is one of the most common painful procedures causing stress in intubated newborns.
Aim: This aim of this study is to compare the effects of open and closed endotracheal suctioning on pain, peak heart rate and oxygen saturation in neonates on mechanicalventilation.
Materials And Methods: This experimental-design study was conducted on 30 newborns who were mechanically ventilated in the tertiary neonatal intensive care unit of a public hospital.

Objective: To systematically evaluate potential risk factors for tracheal stenosis and to provide a reference for the prevention and management of patients with this condition.
Methods: Databases were searched to identify studies of the risk factors for tracheal stenosis, from their inception to October 2023, then a meta-analysis was performed. The study was registered with PROSPERO under the registration number CRD42023428906.

Introduction: Airway management including endotracheal intubation (ETI) is a key skill for emergency clinicians. Therefore, it is important for emergency clinicians to be aware of the current evidence regarding the identification and management of patients requiring ETI.
Objective: This paper evaluates key evidence-based updates concerning ETI for the emergency clinician.

Purpose Of Review: Airway management is one of the most challenging aspects in the field of anesthesia. This is also the case when an emergency airway situation arises in the postoperative patient. These airway procedures are often classified as advanced with high complexity.

Background: Video-laryngoscopy is increasingly used during general anesthesia for emergency cesarean deliveries. Given the heightened risk of difficult tracheal intubation in obstetrics, addressing challenges in airway management is crucial. In this simulation study, we hypothesized that using a flexible bronchoscope would lead to securing the airway faster than the Eschmann introducer when either device is used in addition to video-laryngoscopy.
