<h3>Importance</h3> Tracheal intubation is one of the most commonly performed and high-risk interventions in critically ill patients. Limited information available on adverse peri-intubation events. <h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate incidence nature events to assess current practice <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> The International Observational Study Understand Impact Best Practices Airway Management Critically Ill Patients (INTUBE) study was an international, multicenter, prospective...
Summary Novel coronavirus 2019 is a single‐stranded, ribonucleic acid virus that has led to an international pandemic of disease 2019. Clinical data from the Chinese outbreak have been reported, but experiences and recommendations clinical practice during Italian not. We report impact on regional national healthcare infrastructure. also based managing patients throughout Italy. In particular, we describe key elements management, including: safe oxygen therapy; airway management; personal...
Abstract Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused unprecedented pressure on healthcare system globally. Lack of high-quality evidence the respiratory management COVID-19-related acute failure (C-ARF) resulted in wide variation clinical practice. Methods Using a Delphi process, an international panel 39 experts developed practice statements C-ARF areas where is absent or limited. Agreement was defined as achieved when > 70% voted for given option Likert scale...
Across multiple disciplines undertaking airway management globally, preventable episodes of unrecognised oesophageal intubation result in profound hypoxaemia, brain injury and death. These events occur the hands both inexperienced experienced practitioners. Current evidence shows that occurs sufficiently frequently to be a major concern merit co-ordinated approach address it. Harm from is avoidable through reducing rate intubation, combined with prompt detection immediate action when it...
Recent data indicated a high incidence of inappropriate management neuromuscular block, with rate residual paralysis and relaxant-associated postoperative complications. These are alarming in that the available monitoring, as well myorelaxants their antagonists basically allow tolerated blockade. In this first European Society Anaesthesiology Intensive Care (ESAIC) guideline on peri-operative we aim to present aggregated evidence-based recommendations assist clinicians provide best medical...
Rationale: Cardiovascular instability/collapse is a common peri-intubation event in patients who are critically ill. Objectives: To identify potentially modifiable variables associated with cardiovascular (i.e., systolic arterial pressure <65 mm Hg [once] or <90 for >30 minutes; new/increased vasopressor requirement; fluid bolus >15 ml/kg, cardiac arrest). Methods: INTUBE (International Observational Study to Understand the Impact and Best Practices of Airway Management In Critically Ill...
Unpredictable difficult laryngoscopy remains a challenge for anaesthesiologists, especially if ventilation occurs during standard laryngoscopy. Accurate airway assessment should always be performed, but the common clinical screening tests have shown low sensitivity and specificity with limited predictive value. Ultrasound-based has been proposed recently as useful, simple, noninvasive bedside tool an adjunct to methods, date, few studies are available about potential role of ultrasound in...
The renal resistive index (RRI), a doppler ultrasound-derived parameter measuring vascular resistance, has emerged as promising non-invasive tool to evaluate haemodynamics in critically ill patients, particularly those with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) and heart failure (HF). This review examines the current evidence for RRI measurement these conditions, exploring its physiological bases, methodology, clinical applications, limitations. In ARDS, reflects complex interactions...
Women make up an increasing proportion of the physician workforce in anaesthesia, but they are consistently under-represented leadership and governance.We performed internet-based survey to investigate career opportunities research amongst anaesthesiologists. We also explored gender bias attributable workplace attitudes economic factors. The instrument was piloted, translated into seven languages, uploaded SurveyMonkey® platform. aimed collect between 7800 13 700 responses from at least 100...
Abstract The effects of tracheostomy on outcome as well intra or post-operative complications is yet to be defined. Admission patients with rehabilitation facility at higher risk suboptimal care and increased mortality. aim the study was investigate ICU mortality, clinical quality life up 12 months after discharge in tracheostomized critically ill patients. This a prospective, multi-center, cohort endorsed by Italian Society Anesthesia, Analgesia, Reanimation, Intensive Care (SIAARTI Prot....
Pulmonary aspiration of gastric content is a significant cause anaesthesia-related morbidity and mortality. High-quality prospective randomised evidence to support prevention strategies, such as rapid sequence intubation, difficult generate due well-described practical, ethical methodological barriers. We aimed an understanding worldwide practice through surveying clinically practicing anaesthetists airway experts. Our survey was designed assess the influence of: departmental standards;...
