Success of Intubation Rescue Techniques after Failed Direct Laryngoscopy in Adults A Retrospective Comparative Analysis from the Multicenter Perioperative Outcomes Group

摘要

Background:Multiple attempts at tracheal intubation are associated with mortality, and successful rescue requires a structured plan. However, there remains a paucity of data to guide the choice of intubation rescue technique after failed initial direct laryngoscopy. The authors studied a large perioperative database to determine success rates for commonly used intubation rescue techniques.
