  2. Tracheal intubation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracheal_intubation

    An endotracheal tube stylet, useful in facilitating orotracheal intubation An intubating stylet is a malleable metal wire designed to be inserted into the endotracheal tube to make the tube conform better to the upper airway anatomy of the specific individual.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_sequence_induction

    The equipment and drugs for the intubation are planned, including the endotracheal tube size, the laryngoscope size, and drug dosage. Drugs are prepared in syringes. Intravenous access is obtained to deliver the drugs, usually by placing one or two IV cannulae .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_airway_management

    A cuffed endotracheal tube used in tracheal intubation Tracheal intubation , often simply referred to as intubation, is the placement of a flexible plastic or rubber endotracheal tube (ETT) into the trachea to maintain an open airway, allow for effective ventilation, protect the airway from aspiration (when a cuffed ETT is used), and to serve ...

    Endotracheal tube: a tube introduced into the patient's trachea to maintain a patient to ensure that air reaches the lungs for respiration: Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) a less stimulating alternative to an endotracheal tube Endoscope: to look inside the larynx, trachea, bronchi Eschmann stylet or Gum elastic bougie

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airway_management

    A cuffed endotracheal tube used in tracheal intubation In contrast to supraglottic devices, infraglottic devices create a conduit between the mouth, passing through the glottis, and into the trachea. There are many infraglottic methods available and the chosen technique is reliant on the accessibility of medical equipment, competence of the ...

  7. 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.

  8. 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 ...

  9. History of tracheal intubation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_tracheal_intubation

    The Macintosh blade remains to this day the most widely used laryngoscope blade for orotracheal intubation. [85] In 1949, Macintosh published a case report describing the novel use of a gum elastic urinary catheter as an endotracheal tube introducer to facilitate difficult tracheal intubation. [86]
