Comparison of Tracheal Intubation Using the Storz’s C-Mac D-bladeTM Video-Laryngoscope Aided by TruflexTM Articulating Stylet and the PortexTM Intubating Stylet

BACKGROUND Tracheal intubation using Storz's C-Mac D-blade(TM) videolaryngoscope is associated with difficult negotiation of the tracheal tube into the glottis due to steep angulation of its blade. OBJECTIVES In this study, we hypothesized that Truflex(TM) articulating stylet with its ability to dynamically tailor the ETT shape to patients' oropharyngeal anatomy would be better suited to the ...

The Clarus Video System stylet for awake intubation in a very difficult urgent intubation.

Awake fibreoptic intubation (AFI) is a standard method of airway management in a case of anticipated difficult intubation. It is usually performed using flexible fibroscopes. In this report, we describe the case of a 42 year-old female patient who suffered from congenital disease producing severe deformation of the head, face, neck and chest. In this case, the AFI procedure was performed succes...
