High-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) might have reduced need for endotracheal intubation for persistent hypercapnia during acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive ...

In critically ill patients, video laryngoscopy offers superior glottic visualization, reduces the incidence of esophageal intubation, and improves the first-attempt success rate of emergency tracheal ...

In a US study of patients without cardiac arrest who required prehospital intubation, rapid sequence intubation (RSI), involving the use of a sedative and paralytic, was associated with increased odds ...

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 ...
