0 the act of putting a tube into any hollow organ or tube-shaped structure in the body in order to keep it open, remove liquid for testing, or give a drug:
gastrointestinal/nasal intubation
Following tracheal intubation the animals were ventilated mechanically.
Patients with more severe obstruction require continuous nasopharyngeal intubation with careful positioning of the bevel of the tube opposite the larynx.
For example, it is reasonable to continue and monitor immunosuppressive therapy while withholding invasive diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, antibiotics, pressor, intubation, and cardiac resuscitation.
One month after extubarion, a sudden worsening of the respiratory function due to acute viral bronchiolitis again required intubation and mechanical ventilation.
Bottle feeding can be introduced during the phase of nasopharyngeal intubation, and this can be withdrawn for gradually increasing periods.
Failed intubation revisited: 17-yr experience in a teaching maternity unit.
Subglottic obstruction resulting in severe laryngeal and tracheal stenosis was a complication of intubation in one patient.
Three studies commented on experience of nonfiberoptic intubation techniques but did not explicitly state no prior experience of fiberoptic intubation.
