We report a technique that was utilized to manage an intraoperative airway complication occurring during orthognathic surgery wherein the endotracheal tube pilot balloon was inadvertently damaged during the procedure. Readily available operating room materials were used to safely and rapidly repair the damaged endotracheal tube pilot balloon. This allowed the perioperative team to avoid emergent endotracheal tube exchange and potential airway complications.
我们报告了一种技术,该技术用于处理正颌手术中发生的气道并发症,在此过程中,气管内导管导丝球囊意外受损。手术室中可随时获取的材料被用于安全快速地修复受损的气管内导管导丝球囊。这使得围手术期团队避免了紧急更换气管内导管和潜在的气道并发症。
