Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Local anesthesia in airway management allows orotracheal or nasotracheal intubation in awake patients with anticipated or known difficult airway predictors. Until a few years ago, the device that was used for awake intubation was the Fiberscope (FBO) but currently, in addition, you can use any airway device, as long as you effectively anesthetize the structures through which the device is inserted [1]. This requires adequate local anesthesia during the necessary time, waiting long enough for the local anesthetic to work in order to achieve quick and easy intubation with minimal or nil sedation, although other working groups use sedation during this procedure [2].
