2. Airtraq - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airtraq

   Airtraq is a fibreoptic intubation device used for indirect (video or optic assisted) tracheal intubation in difficult airway situations. It is designed to enable a view of the glottic opening without aligning the oral with the pharyngeal, and laryngeal axes as an advantage over direct endotracheal intubation and allows for intubation with minimal head manipulation and positioning.

4. Double-lumen endobronchial tube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-lumen_endobronchial...

   A Carlens double-lumen endotracheal tube, commonly used for thoracic surgical operations such as VATS lobectomy.. A double-lumen endotracheal tube (also called double-lumen endobronchial tube or DLT) is a type of endotracheal tube which is used in tracheal intubation during thoracic surgery and other medical conditions to achieve selective, one-sided ventilation of either the right or the left ...

5. Cricoid pressure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricoid_pressure

   Cricoid pressure, also known as the Sellick manoeuvre or Sellick maneuver, is a technique used in endotracheal intubation to try to reduce the risk of regurgitation.The technique involves the application of pressure to the cricoid cartilage at the neck, thus occluding the esophagus which passes directly behind it.

6. Suction Assisted Laryngoscopy Airway Decontamination

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suction_Assisted...

   Optimally position the patient to maximise the probability of intubation success (e.g. external auditory meatus level with sternal notch). 2. Hold the suction catheter (wide-bore, rigid) in a clenched-fisted right hand, with the distal end of the catheter pointing caudad and posterior, to enable manipulation of the tongue and mandible as required.

7. Tracheal tube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracheal_tube

   An endotracheal tube is a specific type of tracheal tube that is nearly always inserted through the mouth (orotracheal) or nose (nasotracheal). A tracheostomy tube is another type of tracheal tube; this 50–75-millimetre-long (2.0–3.0 in) curved metal or plastic tube may be inserted into a tracheostomy stoma (following a tracheotomy ) to ...

8. Intubation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intubation

   Tracheal intubation is a procedure involving the placement of an endotracheal tube into a patient’s windpipe, also known as the trachea. This procedure may be done to treat either emergent or non-emergent conditions. Examples of emergent conditions include airway compromise, respiratory failure, allergic reactions, and trauma. An example of a ...

9. Combitube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combitube

   The simplicity of placement is the main advantage of the Combitube over endotracheal intubation. When intubating with a traditional endotracheal tube, care must be taken to visually ensure that the tube has been placed in the trachea while the dual-lumen design of the Combitube allows for ventilation to proceed regardless of esophageal or ...
