A randomised controlled trial comparing the GlideScope®and the Macintosh laryngoscope for double-lumen endobronchial intubation

Haemodynamic response at double lumen bronchial tube placement - Airtraq vs. MacIntosh laryngoscope, a randomised controlled trial

INTRODUCTION Tracheal intubation causes a haemodynamic response that might be harmful for patients. The Airtraq® laryngoscope has been shown to decrease the haemodynamic response to single-lumen tube intubation. We hypothesised that double-lumen bronchial tube placement with the Double-lumen Airtraq® laryngoscope would cause a reduced haemodynamic response and decreased catecholamine release co...

Double-lumen tube tracheal intubation using a rigid video-stylet: a randomized controlled comparison with the Macintosh laryngoscope.

BACKGROUND Despite an increasing need, there is limited experience of double-lumen endobronchial tube (DLT) placement using video laryngoscope. We evaluated DLT intubation using an OptiScope, a rigid video-stylet with a malleable tip derived from the Clarus Video System, in comparison with a Macintosh laryngoscope. METHODS After airway evaluation and anaesthetic induction, Cormack and Lehane ...

Comparing GlideScope Video Laryngoscope and Macintosh Laryngoscope Regarding Hemodynamic Responses During Orotracheal Intubation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

BACKGROUND To determine if the GlideScope® videolaryngoscope (GVL) could attenuate the hemodynamic responses to orotracheal intubation compared with conventional Macintosh laryngoscope. OBJECTIVES The aim of this relatively large randomized trial was to compare the hemodynamic stress responses during laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation using GVL versus MCL amongst healthy adult individuals r...
