[The short-time-intubation as a cause of morphological and functional disorders of the larynx (author's transl)].
In the Göttingen ORL-hospital 100 anaesthetics by endotracheal intubation were carried out within 3 months. All patients were examined phoniatrically and laryngoscopically before and after the anaesthetic. 31% of the patients exhibited no morphological or functional disorders of the larynx. The other patients exhibited minimal (26%), flight (24%) or moderate (19%) postintubation complications. The incidence of postintubation compications is independent of intubation-time, age and sex of the patients, and the size of the tube. An asymmetry of the larynx however favoured the incidence of moderate postintubation complications.
