The real world success rates by operators experienced with intubation remained unknown. That uncertainty has been largely dispelled by large randomized trials in 2023 and 2024 confirming that video laryngoscopy is a superior method for obtaining first pass intubation success for patients with average risk airways.

Still, there are those that believe that FPS is more of a physician-centered endpoint that does not fully reflect important patient-centric outcomes (16). Improved Visualization: Video laryngoscopes allow for the use of standard or hyperangulated geometry, essentially allowing the operator to “look around the corner” on an anterior airway.

The PATCH-Trauma trial took a critical look at TXA in major trauma in the advanced trauma systems of Australia and found a mixed result: a slightly greater number of patients were still alive six months following TXA administration, but there was no difference in survival with a good functional outcome.

Results of this study showed that the use of low-dose insulin infusion led to similar clinical outcomes and fewer adverse events compared to the standard-dose insulin infusion. This could be explained by less experienced personnel dealing with the paediatric airway. Why does it matter? Consequently, the success rate could be biased.

Moreover, when airway management is needed, advanced airway techniques by ALS crews were associated with decreased odds of survival. In one RCT, the FAST exam reduced the time from arrival in the ED to operative care by 64% in the setting of trauma. of cases and contributed to the death of 45.2% of those patients.

In this blog post, we explore the study’s key findings, strengths, and limitations, providing valuable insights while navigating the complexities of airway management in critically ill adults. Outcomes: Primary Outcome: Successful intubation on the first attempt. 1420 patients were enrolled. 1420 patients were enrolled.

The Operating Room Protocols Training equips healthcare providers with essential guidelines to enhance surgical safety, prevent complications, and improve patient outcomes. Sterile techniques are necessary not only in the operating room but also in other settings, such as when inserting a Foley catheter, arterial line, or central line.

They also proved that only expired air resuscitation guaranteed sufficient inflation volumes; that exhaled air was a suitable resuscitating gas; and that the operator would have continuous feedback from each breath.
