Hypotensive events in the initial stage of anesthesia can cause serious complications in the patients after surgery, which could be fatal. In this study, we intended to predict hypotension after tracheal intubation using machine learning and deep lea...
Arterial hypotension during the early phase of anesthesia can lead to adverse outcomes such as a prolonged postoperative stay or even death. Predicting hypotension during anesthesia induction is complicated by its diverse causes. We investigated the ...
Robotic endoscope-automated via laryngeal imaging for tracheal intubation (REALITI) has been developed to enable automated tracheal intubation. This proof-of-concept study using a convenience sample of participants, comprised of trained anaesthetists...
The success rate of pre-hospital endotracheal intubation (ETI) by paramedics is lower than physicians. We aimed to establish a remote robot-assisted intubation system (RRAIS) and expected it to improve success rate of pre-hospital ETI. To test the ro...
Children undergoing general anesthesia require airway monitoring by an anesthesia provider. The airway may be supported with noninvasive devices such as face mask or invasive devices such as a laryngeal mask airway or an endotracheal tube. The physio...
OBJECTIVE: The angle of the C-MAC D-Blade videolaryngoscope, which is used for difficult airway interventions, is not compatible with routinely used endotracheal tubes.
OBJECTIVE: Adequate visualization of the glottic opening is a key factor to successful endotracheal intubation (ETI); however, few objective tools exist to help guide providers' ETI attempts toward the glottic opening in real-time. Machine learning/a...

BACKGROUND: Although the cuff of tracheal tubes can reduce airflow leakage and prevent aspiration, excessive intracuff pressure can cause tracheal mucosal injury. Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery (RALS) can increase intracuff pressure by the Trend...
OBJECTIVES: Rapid sequence intubation (RSI) is the standard for definitive airway management in emergency medicine. In a video-based study of RSI in a paediatric emergency department (ED), we reported a high degree of process variation and frequent a...
