Laryngospasm is a form of airway obstruction. • Laryngospasm is usually easily detected and managed, but may present atypically and/or be precipitated by factors which are not immediately recognized. • If poorly managed, it has the potential to cause morbidity and mortality such as severe hypoxaemia, pulmonary aspiration, and post-obstructive pulmonary edema.
SIGNS • Inspiratory stridor/airway obstruction • Increased inspiratory efforts/tracheal tug • Paradoxical chest/abdominal movements • Desaturation • Bradycardia esp.in children • Central cyanosis
THINK OF • Airway irritation and/or obstruction • Blood/secretions in the airway • Regurgitation and aspiration • Excessive stimulation/“light” anaesthesia
MANAGEMENT Recognise Laryngospasm Apply CPAP c 100% O2 c airway maneuver Assess O2 entry Bag movement No Some Complete laryngospasm Partial laryngospasm
Complete laryngospasm Partial laryngospasm Consider specialized Maneuver to convert to partial laryngospasm Eliminate stimulus ex.secretion Deepen anesthesia c volatile or porpofol not improvement Reassess O2 entry No iv assess iv assess Improvement suxa 1-2 mg/kg iv +/- atropine 0.02mg/kg iv suxa 3-4 mg/kg im +/- atroine 0.02 mg/kg im CPAP ventilate c 100%O2 Attempt intubation as appropriate Improvement Stabilise and resume anesthesia +/- NG tube Not improved CPR + ACLS as indicated
Specialised maneuver • Pressure in laryngospasm notch • Pull mandible forward = forcible jaw thrust
Mechanism of Edema Formation • Two theories on the edema fluid formation • One of the theory suggests significant fluid shifts due to changes in intrathoracic pressure and hydrostatic transpulmonary gradient due to increased blood flow in pulmonary vessel. • The second proposed mechanism involves the disruption of the alveolar epithelial and pulmonary microvascular membranes from severe mechanical stress which leads to increased pulmonary capillary permeability and protein-rich pulmonary edema.
Negative Pressure Pulmonary Edema • Inspiratory efforts against a closed glottis (modified Mueller maneuver) may result in pleural pressures (> - 100 cm H2O) • Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction • These changes result in: • Increased transmural pressure • Fluid filtration into the lung • Development of pulmonary edema and capillary failure.
Mechanism of Negative Pressure Pulmonary Edema 10 Pulmonary edema remains An upper airway obstruction occurs 1 9 2 The patient continues trying to inhale against the obstruction Airway obstruction is relieved 8 3 Fluid from the interstitial space floods into the alveoli A high degree of negative intra-thoracic pressure develops 7 4 A disruption in the alveolar membrane junction occurs Venous return to the heart increases 6 5 Pressure in the pulmonary capillary bed increases Cardiac output decreases
Normal Respiration -1cm H2O +1cm H2O
Normal Pressure - Oncotic Pressure (25mmHg) - Osmotic Pressure (15mmHg)
Airway Obstruction -1cm H2O
Risk assessment • Laryngospasm • Obesity, OSA • Young male athlets • Epiglotitis • Croup • Partial trachial obstruction by FB • Upper airway pathology ex .laryngomalacia, vocal cord paralysis • Obstructed ETT or LMA • Difficult intubation, nasal, oral or pharyngeal • Surgical site ex. Oropharynx,neck,urogenital • Extubation during light planes of anesthesia • Secretions falling on the vocal cords.
Signs and Symptoms • Frothy pink pulmonary secretions : Hallmark sign • Tachycardia,hypertension • Diaphoresis • Auscultation : Rales,Occasionally wheezing • Hypoxemia on pulse oximetry or ABG • Bilateral, alveolar infiltrates on chest x-ray
Differential diagnosis • ARDS • Intravascular volume excess • Cardiac abnormalities • Pulmonary emboli
Treatment • Early diagnosis • Reestablishment of the airway • Adequate oxygenation • Application of positive airway pressure • Via face mask or LMA • Endotracheal intubation with vent support • Although NPPE does not result from fluid overload, most authors recommend gentle diuresis using low-dose furosemide(1mg/kg).
Prevention • Early recognition • Avoid potential obstruction • Ensure adequate depth of anesthesia during use of facemask or LMA • Consider the use of Bite block to ensure patency of artificial airway during emergence from anesthesia • Perform trachial extubation in fully awake Pt.
