The importance of flow and pressure release in emergency jet ventilation devices.
22 Nov 2009 
BACKGROUND: Several self-assembled devices, consisting of a three-way stopcock connected to a high pressure oxygen source, have been proposed for transtracheal jet ventilation in an emergency situation. As a three-way stopcock acts as a 'flow ... Read more...
30 Oct 2009 Despite being a standard procedure during induction of anaesthesia, facemask ventilation can be a major challenge especially for inexperienced anaesthetists. We manufactured a Jaw-Thrust-Device designed to keep the patient's jaws in an optimised ... Read more...
A comparison of McGrath and Macintosh laryngoscopes in novice users: a manikin study.
30 Oct 2009 Direct laryngoscopy using the Macintosh laryngoscope is a difficult skill to acquire. Videolaryngoscopy is a widely accepted airway management technique that may be easier for novices to learn. We compared the McGrath videolaryngoscope and Macintosh ... Read more...
