ENDOTRACHEAL INTUBATION

This study looked at a non-invasive treatment for adults with severe COVID-19 who were struggling to breathe. It combined high-flow oxygen through the nose with having patients lie on their stomachs while awake. The goal was to see if this approach could help patients avoid needi…

This study tested which combination of tools helps medical students with no real-world experience perform intubation better on a training manikin. Researchers compared four different techniques using either a bougie or a stylet with two types of scopes. The main goal was to see w…

This study examined how different levels of muscle relaxation affect the ease of placing a breathing tube during surgery. Researchers observed 170 patients undergoing elective surgery to determine the optimal timing for this procedure. The goal was to improve patient safety and c…

This study observed patients during abdominal surgery to understand how the brain's electrical activity (measured by EEG) relates to the body's release of stress hormones. Researchers measured hormone levels and brain waves at specific moments: before and after the breathing tube…

This study aimed to find out if using a slightly smaller curved blade helps doctors insert a breathing tube more successfully on the first try during surgery. Researchers observed over 3,000 adult patients in operating rooms across France to see which blade size led to fewer atte…

This study compared two devices used to place a breathing tube in patients during surgery. It tested whether a newer video-guided device helped medical trainees place the tube faster and more successfully than the traditional method. The goal was to gather information on which to…
