The ability to provide a patent airway for gas exchange is a mandatory skill for the anesthesiologist. Because of variations in the anatomy and physiology of patients, a technique used to intubate the trachea of one patient may not be successful for another. Thus, it is crucial that the anesthesiologist have multiple ways in which to approach an airway. We first describe a new technique for airway management that can be used electively or in an emergent situation to intubate the trachea of a patient during anesthesia. We then provide 2 detailed case reports in which the technique was found to be helpful. We have since used it in more than 60 patients, without any related complications.
为气体交换提供通畅气道的能力是麻醉医生必备的技能。由于患者的解剖结构和生理机能存在差异,用于为一名患者进行气管插管的技术对另一名患者可能并不成功。因此,麻醉医生掌握多种气道处理方法至关重要。我们首先描述一种新的气道管理技术,该技术可选择性地或在紧急情况下用于在麻醉期间为患者进行气管插管。然后我们提供2份详细的病例报告,其中该技术被证明是有帮助的。此后,我们已在60多名患者中使用了该技术,未出现任何相关并发症。
