Objectives Transnasal humidified rapid‐insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE) is an intraoperative technique that allows avoidance of tracheal intubation (TI) or jet ventilation (JV) in selected laryngologic surgical cases. Unimpeded access to all parts the glottis may improve precision, decrease operative time, and potentially patient outcomes. The objective this prospective, randomized, patient‐blinded, 2‐arm parallel pilot trial was investigate safety efficacy THRIVE use for adult...

Airway management of adult patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa presents significant challenges associated tissue fragility and distortion airway anatomy. This retrospective case series describes 11 difficult airways undergoing 24 general anesthetics in which transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange was used for preoxygenation apneic oxygenation. Despite an average time to intubation over 6 minutes, provided oxygenation before endotracheal without the...
