Incorporating nasal high-flow therapy during endotracheal intubation attempts in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) increased the chance of success on the first try, a randomized study found. In ...
Neonatal endotracheal intubation often involves more than one attempt, and oxygen desaturation is common. It is unclear whether nasal high-flow therapy, which extends the time to desaturation during ...
Video laryngoscopy for the urgent intubation of neonates led to higher rates of success on the first attempt than direct laryngoscopy, a single-center randomized trial from Ireland found. Of more than ...
Repeated attempts at endotracheal intubation are associated with increased adverse events in neonates. When clinicians view the airway directly with a laryngoscope, fewer than half of first attempts ...
