Abstract/OtherAbstract:
High pressure oxygen jet ventilation via a small bore endotracheal tube has been found to be a very effective method for operative laryngoscopy and bronchoscopy under general anesthesia. Advantages of this technique include easily visualization of the larynx and good access for surgical manipulations and bronchoscopic procedures while maintaining excellent patient oxygenation and ventilation. There are few contra-indications for this procedure. Over the past 7 years we have done several thousand operative laryngoscopies using high pressure oxygen jet ventilation with few complications and excellent anesthetic and surgical results.
