Ex Utero Intrapartum Intubation for Giant Fetal Neck Mass

Authors: Mengyun Zhao, M.D. et al  Anesthesiology December 2024, Vol. 141, 1139–1140. Giant fetal neck masses are congenital anomalies that pose significant perinatal risks, including mortality, hypoxia, and anoxic brain damage due to difficulties in promptly establishing neonatal airway.  The ex utero intrapartum treatment (EXIT) procedure enables airway management while maintaining utero-placental circulation after partial delivery of the fetus via cesarean […]

Cardiovascular Effects of Increasing Positive End-expiratory Pressure in a Model of Left Ventricular Cardiogenic Shock in Female Pigs

Authors: Oskar Kjærgaard Hørsdal, B.M.Sc. et al  Anesthesiology December 2024, Vol. 141, 1105–1118. Background Cardiogenic shock (CS) presents a medical challenge with limited treatment options. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during mechanical ventilation has been linked with clinical benefits in patients with CS. This study investigated whether increasing PEEP levels could unload the left ventricle (LV) in […]

Mechanical Power in Decelerating Flow versus Square Flow Ventilation in Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Authors: Andrew G. Percy, M.D. et al  Anesthesiology December 2024, Vol. 141, 1095–1104. Background Mechanical power is a summary variable quantifying the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury. The original mechanical power equation was developed using square flow ventilation. However, most children are ventilated using decelerating flow. It is unclear whether mechanical power differs according to mode […]
