Airtraq, LMA CTrach and Macintosh Laryngoscopes in Tracheal Intubation Training: A Randomized Comparative Manikin Study.
OBJECTIVE Training students on simulators before allowing their direct contact with patients is well accepted. There is no clinical or manikin-based simulation study in the literature comparing tracheal intubation with Airtraq, laryngeal mask airway (LMA) CTrach and Macintosh laryngoscopes performed by medical students having no prior intubation experience. METHODS After obtaining written inf...
متن کاملA comparison of the Airtraq®, McGrath®, and Macintosh laryngoscopes for difficult paediatric intubation: A manikin study
BACKGROUND The efficacy of devices for difficult intubation in paediatric patients, especially with a Cormack-Lehane grade 4 view, has yet to be established. We compared intubating parameters among three devices (the Airtraq®, McGrath®, and Macintosh laryngoscopes). METHODS This study is a randomised cross-over trial. Participants were 20 anaesthetists. Each device was tested three times usin...
متن کاملTracheal intubation in patients with cervical spine immobilization: a comparison of the Airwayscope, LMA CTrach, and the Macintosh laryngoscopes.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Pentax AWS, and the LMA CTrach, in comparison with the Macintosh laryngoscope, when performing tracheal intubation in patients with neck immobilization using manual in-line axial cervical spine stabilization. METHODS Ninety patients undergoing anaesthesia who required tracheal intubation were randomly assigned to un...
متن کاملTracheal intubation of morbidly obese patients: a randomized trial comparing performance of Macintosh and Airtraq laryngoscopes.
BACKGROUND The Airtraq laryngoscope is designed to allow visualization of the glottis without alignment of the oral, pharyngeal, and laryngeal axes. We hypothesized that this new airway device would facilitate tracheal intubation of morbidly obese patients. We compared tracheal intubation performance of standard Macintosh laryngoscope with the Airtraq laryngoscope in morbidly obese patients. ...
متن کاملAirway management at floor level: a comparison of tracheal intubation using the Macintosh and Airtraq laryngoscopes.
Practitioners providing pre-hospital care during civilian practice and on military operations may be required to perform airway management and tracheal intubation at floor level. It has been shown that intubation using the Airtraq laryngoscope is easier to learn than standard Macintosh laryngoscopy. We hypothesised that the Airtraq would be easier to use and have shorter intubation times than M...
