Teaching tracheal intubation: Airtraq is superior to Macintosh laryngoscope
BACKGROUND Tracheal intubation with Macintosh laryngoscope is taught to medical students as it is a lifesaving procedure. However, it is a difficult technique to learn and the consequences of intubation failure are potentially serious. The Airtraq optical laryngoscope is a relatively novel intubation device, which allows visualization of the glottic plane without alignment of the oral, pharynge...
متن کاملEndotracheal intubation using the C-MAC® video laryngoscope or the Macintosh laryngoscope: A prospective, comparative study in the ICU
INTRODUCTION Endotracheal intubation in the ICU is a challenging procedure and is frequently associated with life-threatening complications. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the C-MAC® video laryngoscope on laryngeal view and intubation success compared with direct laryngoscopy. METHODS In a single-center, prospective, comparative before-after study in an anesthetist-lea...
متن کاملAirway scope and Macintosh laryngoscope for tracheal intubation in patients lying on the ground.
BACKGROUND Direct laryngoscopy of a patient lying on the ground is difficult because the intubator's head is far above the head of the patient, making alignment of the intubator's visual axis with the patient's tracheal axis difficult. The Airway Scope is a laryngoscope designed to facilitate tracheal intubation without requiring alignment of the oral, pharyngeal, and tracheal axes. We thus tes...
متن کاملA comparative study between the laryngoscope and lighted stylet in tracheal intubation.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Approaching the airways with a laryngoscope can cause different types of injuries. The objective of the present study was to determine whether lighted stylet tracheal intubation can be a less traumatic alternative for patients when compared to direct laryngoscopy. METHODS Ninety-eight patients between 16 and 88 years and physical status ASA I and II participated in t...
متن کاملAirtraq, 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...
