Risk factors and algorithm with recommendations for managing patients with tracheal stenosis after tracheotomy or tracheal intubation.

Preparation for experiment 1. General anesthesia in both groups was induced and maintained with sevoflurane in oxygen for a tracheotomy and placement of femoral artery and vein catheters. Then, a laser Doppler flowmeter probe (ALF21RTM; Advance, Tokyo, Japan) was fixed onto the palatal mucosal surface using a piece of sponge to monitor the palatal mucosal blood flow (PMBF) continuously. After the preparation (tracheotomy and placement of catheters), at least 5 minutes elapsed until the cardiovascular parameters had stabilized when control (time 0) measurements were made.

Preparation for experiment 2. General anesthesia in both groups was induced and maintained with sevoflurane in oxygen for a tracheotomy. A 3-Fr catheter was then inserted via the femoral artery with the tip placed in the thoracic aorta to take blood samples.

Method of general anesthesia. General anesthesia was induced by oxygen 5 L/min and 5% sevoflurane, and then a tracheotomy was performed, after which general anesthesia was maintained at oxygen 3 L/min and 3% sevoflurane. A cannula was inserted into the femoral artery, and arterial pressure was continuously recorded throughout the experiment using a polygraph and a pressure transducer.
