... revealed high correlations between fetal measurements and the optimal ETT insertion depth ( R 2 = 0.712–0.837). Conclusion: We provide recommendations for neonatal nasotracheal ETT insertion depths based on prenatally available data with the potential to facilitate rapid and accurate intubation of neonates...

... the groups during the course of noninvasive ventilation ( p = 0.80). Seven patients (35%) in the NIV NAVA group and 10 (50%) in the control group required intubation (difference 15%, 95% CI –15.5 to 4.3, p = 0.36). Time to intubation, gas exchange, vital parameters, pain scale, treatment complications...

...Ellen H.M. de Kort; Peter Andriessen; Irwin K.H. Reiss; Monique van Dijk; Sinno H.P. Simons Background: Premedication for neonatal intubation facilitates the procedure and reduces stress and physiological disturbances. However, no validated scoring system to assess the effect of premedication prior...

...-inflating bag (SIB), a T-piece device, or, ultimately, intubation with an endotracheal tube (ETT) and possibly mechanical ventilation (MV). Recent studies, using videotape recordings and respiratory function monitoring during resuscitation, have shown that resuscitators are frequently significantly...

...Ellen H.M. de Kort; Lidwien M. Hanff; Daniella Roofthooft; Irwin K.M. Reiss; Sinno H.P. Simons Background: Neonatal intubation is stressful and should be performed with premedication. In the case of an INSURE (intubation/surfactant/extubation) procedure a short duration of action...

... neurodevelopmental outcome at 2 years. We have determined that airway obstruction occurs frequently during bag and mask resuscitation and have demonstrated that this can be recognized using a simple colorimetric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) detector. Neonatal intubation can be a difficult procedure and often fails...

...Orlando da Silva; D. Stevens Objective: To define the incidence of complications of endotracheal intubation and the factors associated with these complications. Study Design: During a 22-month period, 227 intubated infants weighing <1,501 g were followed prospectively in a neonatal intensive...
