Purpose Swine are one of the major animal species used in translational research, with unique advantages given the similar anatomic and physiologic characteristics as man, but the investigator needs to be familiar with important differences. This article targets clinical anesthesiologists who are proficient in human monitoring. We summarize our exp...

Background Prehospital tracheal intubation (TI) is associated with increased mortality in patients with penetrating trauma, and the utility of prehospital advanced airway management is debated. The increased incidence of deadly violence in Sweden warrants a comprehensive evaluation of current airway management for patients with penetrating trauma i...

Introduction Sweden is facing a surge of gun violence that mandates optimized prehospital transport approaches, and a survey of current practice is fundamental for such optimization. Management of severe, penetrating trauma is time sensitive, and there may be a survival benefit in limiting prehospital interventions. An important aspect is unregulat...
Article
Introduction Prehospital pediatric tracheal intubation (TI) is a possible life-saving intervention that requires adequate experience to mitigate associated complications. The pediatric airway and respiratory physiology present challenges in addition to a relatively rare incidence of prehospital pediatric TI. Study Objective The aim of this study w...

... Renberg et al 38 performed an observational study of 816 subjects with penetrating trauma, with 118 intubated prehospital and 248 intubated in the ED. Pre-hospital intubation was associated with an increased risk of mortality (76% vs 42%), even after adjustment for injury severity score. ...
... To successfully manage pediatric airways, especially in the youngest age group, specific training is necessary. Well-trained staff (> 2500 ETI) exhibit low complication rates for pediatric tracheal intubations in a prehospital setting [17,19]. In a retrospective analysis of intubation competence among neonatalperinatal medicine fellows, it was shown that the number of neonatal intubations required to achieve procedural competence varied, with a minimum of 8-46 supervised neonatal endotracheal intubations needed to reach an overall success rate of 80% within two attempts [20]. ...
