[The surgical correction of vascular tracheal rings in children]
Abstract:
The aortic arch and its branches anomalia compound 1-3.8% of all vessel inborn diseases. The treatment of such anomalia as tracheal vessel ring aims the liquidation of esophageal and tracheal compression. The authors introduce their experience of thoracoscopic tracheal vessel rings resection in 6 children. The time of the operation was 145±15min. There were no conversions to the traditional open surgery. The result was excellent in 4 of 6 children, who were completely releaed of tracheal obstruction symptoms. The rest 2 children demonstrated mild respiratory symptoms, cuased by the tracheomalation.

Venturi Mask
The Venturi mask, named after the Venturi effect, is designed to deliver precise oxygen concentrations. It consists of a large tube with an oxygen inlet that narrows down, causing a pressure drop that pulls air in through adjustable side ports. The mask is a lightweight,...
