Comparison of a new video-optical intubation stylet versus the conventional malleable stylet in simulated difficult tracheal intubation.
Handling and efficacy of a new video-optical intubation stylet were assessed in a simulated difficult tracheal intubation setting and compared with a conventional malleable stylet. Forty-five anaesthetists performed 10 tracheal intubations using both techniques. Laryngoscopy was performed by the observer, who created a grade 3 view according the classification by Cormack and Lehane. The time ta...
متن کاملLighted stylet tracheal intubation: a review.
Tracheal intubation is older than the recognized history of general anesthesia itself. In the late 18th century, The Royal Humane Society of London used tracheal intubation for resuscitating the near-drowned. Approximately 100 years later, MacEwan (1) performed a digital tracheal intubation in an awake patient before a chloroform and air general endotracheal anesthetic for the resection of a to...
متن کاملEfficiency of a new fiberoptic stylet scope in tracheal intubation.
BACKGROUND Failed or difficult tracheal intubation is an important cause of morbidity and mortality during anesthesia. Although a number of fiberoptic devices are available to circumvent this problem, many do not allow manual control of the flexion of the tip and necessitate time-consuming preparation, special training, or the use of an external light source. To improve these limitations, the a...
متن کاملThe 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...
متن کاملClinical experience with the SensaScope®, a hybrid video intubation stylet for the difficult intubation
Introduction. The existing video-assisted endoscopic instruments to facilitate difficult intubation are either rigid or flexible and have therefore specific limitations due to their basic characteristics. The SensaScope® is a hybrid video intubation stylet containing rigid and flexible parts, which has been designed to overcome these limitations. We evaluated this instrument for its suitability...
