AbstractThe Hayek oscillator is an externally (body) mounted cuirass ventilator used in the intensive care unit. We have used it to ventilate patients undergoing microlaryngeal surgery. It was found to be a relatively safe method of ventilation in these cases, with the advantage of dispensing with any form of endolaryngeal or endotracheal intubation.
