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 کاملGlidescope® video laryngoscope vs. Macintosh direct laryngoscope for the intubation of laryngeal neoplasm patients: a randomized controlled study
Background: Glidescope® video laryngoscope (GVL) is widely used in tracheal intubation. However, no studies have been conducted to compare the GVL and Macintosh direct laryngoscope (MDL) for intubation in patients with laryngeal neoplasm. Here, we aim to compare GVL and MDL for the intubation of laryngeal neoplasm patients. Methods: One hundred ninety-six American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA...
متن کاملIntubation biomechanics: laryngoscope force and cervical spine motion during intubation with Macintosh and Airtraq laryngoscopes.
INTRODUCTION Laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation in the presence of cervical spine instability may put patients at risk of cervical cord injury. Nevertheless, the biomechanics of intubation (cervical spine motion as a function of applied force) have not been characterized. This study characterized and compared the relationship between laryngoscope force and cervical spine motion using two ...
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...
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...
