Development of an artificial intelligence-assisted system for tracheal intubation using a video laryngoscope in infants and neonates
Background
The larynx of infants and neonates is occasionally challenging to identify using video laryngoscope. This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted model that can identify the larynx, including the opening vocal cord and the arytenoid portion, on images obtained using a video laryngoscope.
Methods
First, 1197 images were extracted by the author from the 653 videos for train and validation data. An AI-assisted model for identifying the larynx was developed using YOLOv8n. Then, 399 images were selected from the additional 63 videos for the test data at every 150 frames.
Results
The sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve of the AI-assisted model for identifying the larynx were 0.74, 0.99, and 0.91, respectively. The AI model correctly identified the opening vocal cord and arytenoid portion in cases without obstacles. Esophageal misidentification of the larynx and undetected cases of the larynx caused by obstacles were observed.
Conclusions
The AI-assisted model effectively identified the larynx, including the opening vocal cord and the arytenoid portion, during video laryngoscopy and potentially can enhance the safety of tracheal intubation of infants and neonates. However, esophageal misidentification remains critical. Further studies are needed to refine the model and ensure its reliability in clinical practice.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Clinical Anesthesia (JCA) addresses all aspects of anesthesia practice, including anesthetic administration, pharmacokinetics, preoperative and postoperative considerations, coexisting disease and other complicating factors, cost issues, and similar concerns anesthesiologists contend with daily. Exceptionally high standards of presentation and accuracy are maintained.
The core of the journal is original contributions on subjects relevant to clinical practice, and rigorously peer-reviewed. Highly respected international experts have joined together to form the Editorial Board, sharing their years of experience and clinical expertise. Specialized section editors cover the various subspecialties within the field. To keep your practical clinical skills current, the journal bridges the gap between the laboratory and the clinical practice of anesthesiology and critical care to clarify how new insights can improve daily practice.
