Background Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) is a strategy to maintain
positive airway pressure throughout the respiratory cycle through the application of a bias …

Airway management is required during general anaesthesia and is essential for life-
threatening conditions such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Evidence from recent trials …

Background Supplemental oxygen administration by apnoeic oxygenation during
laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation is intended to prolong safe apnoea time, reduce the risk …

Background Neonatal endotracheal intubation often involves more than one attempt, and
oxygen desaturation is common. It is unclear whether nasal high-flow therapy, which …

Background Tracheal intubation in neonates and infants is a potentially life-saving
procedure. Video laryngoscopy has been found to improve first-attempt tracheal intubation …

Background Repeated attempts at endotracheal intubation are associated with increased
adverse events in neonates. When clinicians view the airway directly with a laryngoscope …

BACKGROUND: Exogenous surfactants to treat respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) are
approved for tracheal instillation only; this requires intubation, often followed by positive …

Objective To determine the relationship between number of attempts and adverse events
during neonatal intubation. Study design A retrospective study of prospectively collected …

Background The design of a videolaryngoscope blade may affect its efficacy. We classified
videolaryngoscope blades as standard and non-standard shapes to compare their efficacy …

Objective We hypothesized that videolaryngoscope use for tracheal intubations would differ
across NICUs, be associated with higher first attempt success and lower adverse events …
