High-frequency jet ventilation.
High-frequency jet ventilation is a useful new modality of ventilatory support that offers specific advantage in endoscopy, laryngeal surgery, or mechanically ventilating patients with airway leaks. The method produces lower airway pressures and less movement in the operative field and is well tolerated by the patients. It can be applied by transtracheal puncture as an alternative for emergency airway management.
