2023年12月2日 · Retrograde intubation is an older technique for patients who are still breathing (awake in the Resus world, sedated in the anesthesia world). I have seen in the past that elective cases may done with an induced patient–THIS IS NOT APPLICABLE TO RESUS!

Retrograde intubation is the better alternative airway management in difficult airway conditions where there is no fiberoptic laryngoscope. 1. Sasanka S. Aids to tracheal intubation. Anaesthesia up date. 2003;17:1. [Google Scholar] 2. Roberts KW, Solgonick RM.

2013年8月1日 · Retrograde intubation (RI) is a well-described technique that involves several methods of translaryngeal guided nonsurgical airway access to assist in endotracheal or nasotracheal intubation. It can be used successfully in awake, sedated, obtunded, or apneic patients who have either an anticipated or unanticipated difficult airway.

Retrograde intubation has proven to be an effective method used by Emergency Physicians and prehospital personnel to establish an airway. Completion times for retrograde intubation vary based on physician experience.

2019年4月10日 · Retrograde tracheal intubation (RTI) technique is an effective and safe option for some of these cases. We report our experience with a modified RTI technique in a 72-year-old man (body mass index, 20.3) affected by a pleomorphic adenoma of the lower jaw extending to the oropharynx and rhinopharynx.

Retrograde intubation access kit (if not available, this technique has been performed using a Tuohy needle and an epidural catheter): NB: Some kits have a tube exchanger that allows insufflating oxygen; these exchangers have only one tapered end; Magill forceps; Appropriately sized endotracheal tube

Retrograde intubation is a procedure that involves threading a guidewire through the cricothyroid membrane (a membrane located between the thyroid and cricoid cartilage in the neck) and advancing it upwards into the oropharynx, where it is retrieved via the mouth or nose.

Successful management of difficult tracheal intubation by retrograde intubation has been reported for almost 50 years and can be used whether or not it is anticipated. There are numerous reports of variations to the basic technique to enhance reproducibility of this guided blind procedure.

Retrograde intubation is a well-described technique. It encompasses several methods of translaryngeal guided nonsurgical airway access to facilitate orotracheal or nasotracheal intubation.

Retrograde intubation is an important rescue technique in difficult airway situations where flexible fibreoptic bronchoscopes are unavailable or there is a lack of skilled personnel.
