    Noninvasive Treatment of Acquired Subglottic Stenosis
    (LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2016) Ozturk, Kayhan; Erdur, Omer; Sofiyev, Fuad; Onal, Ibrahim Ozkan; Annagur, Ali
    A 23-day-old infant referred to the neonatal intensive care unit with difficulty breathing and inspiratory stridor increasing with exercise. Medical history included a cardiothoracic surgery for transposition of the great arteries, patent ductus arteriosus, atrial septal defect, and a history of intensive care unit from surgery. Flexible fiberoptic transnasal laryngoscopy revealed subglottic stenosis that was probably caused by prolonged intubation with a higher airway pressure. Computed tomographic scan of the neck showed a tiny stenosis without cartilage deformity and limited in subglottic region. Tracheotomy and external open surgery was found risky for sternal wound infection or mediastinitis as the neonate had newly thoracotomy. The patient had a balloon dilation under general anesthesia without intubation. Presenting symptoms of the neonate were fully improved with balloon dilation.

    Ultrasound validation of Trendelenburg positioning to increase internal jugular vein cross-sectional area in chronic dialysis patients
    (TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2015) Nayman, Alaaddin; Onal, Ibrahim Ozkan; Apiliogullari, Seza; Ozbek, Seda; Saltali, Ali Ozgul; Celik, Jale Bengi; Temizoz, Osman
    Background and aim: Trendelenburg positioning (TP) is a common approach used during internal jugular vein (IJV) cannulation. No evidence indicates that TP significantly increases the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the IJV or decreases the overlap between the carotid artery (CA) and the IJV in dialysis patients. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the TP on the CSA of the right IJV and on its relationship to the CA. Methods: Thirty-seven consecutive hemodialysis patients older than 18 years of age were enrolled. We measured the CSA of the right IJV and overlap rate (at end-expiration at the level of the cricoid cartilage) between the CA and the IJV in two positions: State 0, table flat (no tilt), with the patient in the supine position; State T, in which the operating table was tilted to 15 degrees of TP. Results: Data were collected for all of the 37 patients enrolled in the study. The change in CSA and overlap between the CA and the IJV from the supine to the TP was not significantly different. The CSA was paradoxically decreased in 11 of 37 patients when changed from State 0 to State T. Conclusions: TP does not significantly increase the CSA of the right IJV or decrease the overlap between the CA and the IJV in dialysis patients. In fact, in some patients, it reduces the CSA. Therefore, the use of the TP for IJV cannulation in dialysis patients can no longer be supported.
