FAJARDO-ESCOLAR, Angélica Paola; BONILLA-RAMIREZ, Antonio José e WINOGRAD GOMEZ, Vera. Ultrasound-guided selective intubation in a preterm neonate undergoing type-C esophageal athresia correction. Case report. Rev. colomb. anestesiol. [online]. 2018, vol.46, n.1, pp.75-78. ISSN 0120-3347. https://doi.org/10.1097/cj9.0000000000000014.
Introduction:
Neonatal patients presenting with tracheoesophageal fistula represent a challenge to the anesthesiologist due to the multiple difficulties this pathology involves for airway management.
Case discussion:
Following is a description of a case of a neonate undergoing tracheoesophageal fistula repair using ultrasound-guided orotracheal intubation as an adjunct to selective intubation.
Conclusion:
Perioperative ultrasound is a promising tool for airway management of the pediatric patient. Further studies to assess the possibility to position the technique as a standard of care are needed.
