Comparative Study[Locating the site of resistance to the endotracheal tube in fiberoptic oral intubation and maneuvers to overcome it: a mannequin simulation study].
To determine the most common tracheal points of resistance during orotracheal insertion of a fiberoptic tube in a mannequin by applying a maneuver algorithm to overcome the resistance. ⋯ Rotating the tube 90 degrees counterclockwise was an effective maneuver for overcoming resistance. The combination of a reinforced flexible tube and a Williams intubator was associated with less resistance and shorter intubation times.

[Incidence in Catalonia of spinal cord compression due to spinal hematoma secondary to neuraxial anesthesia].
To study the incidence in Catalonia of spinal cord compression due to spinal hematoma secondary to neuraxial anesthesia. ⋯ The incidence of spinal hematoma after neuraxial anesthesia is slightly more than 1 per 150 000 anesthesias-a similar finding to that of other epidemiological studies. The incidence is slightly higher in epidural anesthesia. These data imply a risk of approximately 1 spinal hematoma per year in Catalonia.
