Nasopharyngeal airway dual-transcriptome of infants with severe bronchiolitis and risk of childhood asthma
Severe bronchiolitis (bronchiolitis requiring hospitalization) during infancy is a major risk factor for incident asthma. However, the exact mechanism linking these common conditions remains unclear. We aimed to examine the integrated role of airway microbiome (both taxonomy and function) and host response in asthma development in this high-risk population.

Three-dimensional assessment of airway volumes in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate
ConclusionsNine- to twelve-year-old non-syndromic unilateral CLP patients have smaller pharyngeal airway dimensions than non-cleft controls, and are therefore at higher risk of respiratory insufficiency. (Source: Progress in Orthodontics)

Fiber-optic-assisted endotracheal intubation complicated by iatrogenic right main bronchus obstruction
Sanjay Kumar, Vaishali Waindeskar, Deepti AggrawalAnnals of African Medicine 2021 20(3):232-234
Several aids have been designed for helping anesthetist in managing the difficult airway. Oral carcinomas often distort the airway anatomy and present as difficult airway usually with restricted mouth opening. In these scenarios, elective nasotracheal intubation with fiberoptic is done to secure the airway as well as to provide the full surgical field to the surgeon. Vertically split nasopharyngeal airway is one of the popular aids used as a conduit to pass fiber-optic bronchoscope. Timely removal of the split nasopharyngeal ai...

Modified double nasopharyngeal airway used with a double lumen connector: A case report
Paediatr Anaesth. 2021 Sep 14. doi: 10.1111/pan.14296. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe pediatric difficult intubation (PeDI) registry gave us one very important insight; the most common severe complication during difficult endotracheal intubation is cardiac arrest (2%) which was preceded in all cases by hypoxemia (8-15%).1 The apparent implication of this finding is that every pediatric anesthesiologist must consider oxygenation before and during successive intubation attempts.PMID:34519146 | DOI:10.1111/pan.14296 (Source: Paediatric Anaesthesia)

Basic Airway Management for the Professional Nurse
The registered nurse (RN) on a medical-surgical nursing unit may be the first health care professional to encounter a patient with the signs of impending respiratory failure. Importantly, the RN must recognize the signs of respiratory compromise and possess the competence and confidence to intervene without delay. Signs of respiratory deterioration, physical assessment, and respiratory laboratory studies are reviewed. Modes of oxygen therapy, basic airway management techniques, including bag mask ventilation, and use of oropharyngeal and nasopharyngeal airways are discussed. The assembly of equipment and medications freque...

Postoperative Changes in Tongue Area and Pharyngeal Airway Space following Mandibular Setback Surgery through Intraoral Vertical Ramus Osteotomy
CONCLUSIONS: At the final follow-up (T13), no significant change was found in the PAS (including NOP, RPP, RGP, and HOP) and TA. The changes in PAS and TA revealed no significant difference between female and male patients at T12, T23, and T13.PMID:34337064 | PMC:PMC8324367 | DOI:10.1155/2021/9923789 (Source: Biomed Res)

Nasopharyngeal Tube and Functional Treatment in Pierre Robin Sequence: A Tertiary Clinical Experience From 150 Cases
CONCLUSIONS: Nasopharyngeal airway tube has become our major first-line treatment, avoiding more complex procedures in most of the cases. The achievement of exclusive oral feeding seems to be a good predictor of the severity of respiratory symptoms in PRS.PMID:34313144 | DOI:10.1177/10556656211031105 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)
