Airway management is a core emergency medicine competency. Physicians are expected to be able to intubate both adult and pediatric patients safely with a minimum of adverse events. A new study ...

Airway obstruction by foreign bodies is rarely encountered in the neonatal intensive care unit. The majority of those cases reported are iatrogenic. This paper reports a case of acute airway ...

Clinicians with inadequate access to standard personal protective equipment (PPE) have been compelled to improvise protective barrier enclosures for use during endotracheal intubation. We describe one ...

It's widely known that patients who are intubated for five to six hours during lengthy surgeries are at greater risk for follow-up complications to the larynx (voice box) such as sore throat, ...

In a cohort study of patients with active hemorrhage, endotracheal intubation in the emergency department (ED) was associated with higher mortality rates, more frequent ICU admissions, and a greater ...

To the Editor: I have read with interest the carefully prepared article by Dr. Benjamin Etsten and Dr. Donald Mahler on "Subglottic Membrane, a Complication of Endotracheal Intubation" that appeared ...

Use of hyperangulated video laryngoscopy reduced the number of attempts needed to achieve endotracheal intubation compared with direct laryngoscopy among adults undergoing elective or emergent ...

High-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) might have reduced need for endotracheal intubation for persistent hypercapnia during acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive ...

A project has been completed to achieve successful endotracheal intubation in a moving ambulance. Now researchers are assessing the possibility to safely assist patients in medical vehicles at all ...

In a proof-of-concept study, researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have created a coating that can be applied to endotracheal tubes and release antimicrobial peptides that target ...
