Risk of cardiovascular collapse during intubation and other safety outcomes also weren't any lower with ketamine. In fact, hypotension, receipt of vasopressors, and ventricular tachycardia during ...

In-hospital mortality by day 28 did not significantly differ based on use of ketamine or etomidate to induce anesthesia in ...

Etomidate and ketamine for inducing anesthesia achieved similar prespecified safety outcomes but different risk for cardiovascular collapse.

Ketamine and etomidate were compared in the ED and ICU as the primary sedative during emergency tracheal intubation.

Awake fibreoptic intubation (AFOI) remains a critical technique in managing difficult airways, particularly when conventional methods pose increased risks. This approach utilises a flexible fibreoptic ...

Intubation with an Airway Scope offered high success rates when tracheal intubation is required in a laterally positioned patient, according to a study published in the March 2011 issue of Anesthesia ...

A clinical risk scoring system can accurately assess a patient’s chance of undergoing unplanned tracheal intubation after surgery, according to research published in the July issue of Anesthesia & ...

An alternative anesthetic technique can be employed when conventional nasal intubation methods do not work in patients undergoing dental procedures or oral surgery. The method involves a gum elastic ...

ERCP in the supine or left lateral positions appears to be more efficient due to fewer intubations and doesn’t increase ...

No reduction seen in in-hospital death by day 28 with use of ketamine rather than etomidate to induce anesthesia in critically ill adults undergoing tracheal intubation ...
