As it is assumed that this may lead to deficient service we aimed to gather robust data on the characteristics of OOH paediatric emergencies. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated all OOH paediatric emergencies (0-14years) within a 9-year period and attended by physician-staffed ground- or helicopter-based emergency medical service (EMS or HEMS) teams from our centre. Results: We identified 2271 paediatric emergencies, making up 6.3% of all cases (HEMS 8.5%). NACA scores IV-VII were assigned in 27.3% (HEMS 32.0%). The leading diagnosis groups were age dependent: respiratory disorders (infants 34.5%, toddlers 21.8%, school children 15.0%), convulsions (17.2%, 43.2%, and 16.0%, respectively), and trauma (16.0%, 19.5%, and 44.4%, respectively). Endotracheal intubation was performed in 4.2% (HEMS 7.6%) and intraosseous canulation in 0.7% (HEMS 1.0%) of children. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was commenced in 2.3% (HEMS 3.4%). Thoracocentesis, chest drain insertion and defibrillation were rarities. HEMS physicians attended a particularly high fraction of drowning (80.0%). head injury (73.9%) and SIDS (60.0%) cases, whereas 75.6% of all respiratory emergencies were attended by ground-based EPs. Conclusions: Our data suggest that EPs need to be particularly confident with the care of children suffering respiratory disorders, convulsions, and trauma. The incidence of severe paediatric OOH emergencies requiring advanced interventions is higher in HEMS-attended cases. However, well-developed skills in airway management, CPR, and intraosseous canulation in children are essential for all EPs. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Results: Eighty-two out of 2040 children (4.0%) had prehospital tracheal intubation (58 in group 1).

Out-of-hospital airway management is a critical skill, demanding expert knowledge and experience. The intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA) is a ventilatory and intubating device which may be of value in this arena. We evaluated the ILMA for out-of-hospital management of the difficult airway. Methods. Twenty-one anaesthesia-trained emergency physicians (EPs) completed a training programme and used the ILMA in patients with difficult-to-manage airways. Indications for use of the ILMA included patients with difficult laryngoscopy, multiple intubation attempts, limited access to the patient's head, presence of pharyngo-laryngeal trauma; and gastric fluids or bleeding obscuring the view of the vocal cords. Results. During the study period, 146 of 2513 patients underwent tracheal intubation or alternate rescue airway insertion. In 135 patients, laryngoscopy was performed and Cormack-Lehane view was recorded as grade I in 72 (53.3%), II in 45 (33.3%), III in 10 (7.4%), and IV in 8 (5.9%). EPs encountered I I patients (7.5%) with difficult-to-manage airways. ILMA insertion and ventilation was possible in 10 patients in the first and one patient in the second attempt.

This study compares success rates for ventilation and intubation via the intubating laryngeal mask (ILMA-V/ILMA-TI) with those via bag-mask ventilation and laryngoscopic intubation (BM-V/LG-TI). Methods: In a prospective, randomized, crossover study, 30 final-year medical students, all with no experience in airway management, were requested to manage anesthetized patients who seemed normal on routine airway examination. Each participant was asked to intubate a total of six patients, three with each technique, in a randomly assigned order. A task not completed after two 60-s attempts was recorded as a failure, and the technique was switched. Results: The success rate with ILMA-V was significantly higher (97.80% vs. 85.6%; P < 0.05), and ventilation was established more rapidly with ILMA-V (35.6 +/- 8.0 vs. 44.3 +/- 10.8 s; P < 0.01). Intubation was successful more often with ILMA-TI (92.2% vs. 40.0%; P < 0.01).

After failed LG-TI, ILMA-V was successful in all patients, and ILMA-TI was successful in 28 of 33 patients. Conversely, after failed ILMA-TI, BM-V was possible in all patients, and LG-TI was possible in I of 5 patients. Conclusion: Medical students were more successful with ILMA-V/ILMA-TI than with BM-V/LG-TI. ILMA-TI can be successfully used when LG-TI has failed, but not vice versa.
