As they roll through the door, he is alert and able to give some limited history. There is notable left-sided deficit, slurred speech, rightsided incoordination, and neurology scores him at 10 on...
متن کاملStylet angulation for routine endotracheal intubation with McGrath videolaryngoscope
BACKGROUND The McGrath videolaryngoscope (VL) provides excellent laryngoscopic views, but directing an endotracheal tube can be difficult, and thus the routine use of a stylet is recommended. The goal of this study is to determine the appropriate angle (60° vs 90°) of the stylet when using the McGrath VL by comparing the time to intubation (TTI). METHODS One hundred and forty patients aged 19...
متن کاملEndotracheal intubation with a video-assisted semi-rigid fiberoptic stylet by prehospital providers

This study was designed to evaluate advanced life support (ALS) emergency medical technicians' (EMTs) ability to successfully intubate a simulated airway using a video-assisted semi-rigid fiberoptic stylet, the Clarus Video System (CVS). METHODS ALS EMTs were first shown...
