Myocardial infarction and death after caesarean section in a woman with protein S deficiency and undiagnosed phaeochromocytoma.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:For more than 50 yr, uncuffed tracheal tubes have been the gold standard for intubation in children under the age of 8 yr. However, recently there has been interest in the use of cuffed tubes in paediatric practice. This survey aimed to benchmark UK practice with regard to tracheal intubation w...
