An evaluation of a modified Macintosh laryngoscope in a manikin.
PURPOSE In this manikin study a modified Macintosh blade was prospectively compared with its original focussing on the forces exerted on the maxillary incisor teeth and intubation success. The modified blade, a standard Macintosh blade with a reduced proximal flange, was intended to reduce the forces exerted on the maxillary incisors. METHODS A manikin equipped with two sensors, to measure fo...
متن کاملComparison between C-mac Video-laryngoscope and Macintosh Direct Laryngoscope during Cervical Spine Immobilization.
BACKGROUND Video-laryngoscopes have gained popularity in the recent years and have shown definite advantages over the conventional Macintosh direct laryngoscopes. However, there is still insufficient evidence comparing the C-MAC with the Macintosh for patients during manual inline stabilization (MILS). METHODS This prospective, randomized, single blind study was carried out to compare trachea...
متن کاملThe McGrath Series 5 video laryngoscope versus the Macintosh laryngoscope: a randomized trial in obstetric patients.
BACKGROUND/AIM Anesthesiologists have encountered various difficulties in securing the airway. Therefore, we compare the intubation times and hemodynamic changes between the McGrath Series 5 video laryngoscope and the Macintosh laryngoscope.

متن کاملEndotracheal Intubation Using the Macintosh Laryngoscope or KingVision Video Laryngoscope during Uninterrupted Chest Compression
OBJECTIVE Advanced airway management, endotracheal intubation (ETI), during CPR is more difficult than, for example, during anesthesia. However, new devices such as video laryngoscopes should help in such circumstances. The aim of this study was to assess the performance of the KingVision video laryngoscopes in a manikin cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) scenario. METHODS Thirty students en...

I agree that such a screen is essential to maintain a good view of the patient's airway, and more particularly to facilitate bronchoscopy without disturbing the operative field should it become necessary during operation. Such a screen can well...
