Understanding the Original Shape of the Macintosh Laryngoscope
71 years ago, the most popular curved laryngoscope in the world the Macintosh laryngoscope was designed by Sir Robert Reynolds Macintosh, which was expected to expose the larynx more easily under lighter anesthesia than that with the straight laryngoscope by elevating the epiglottis indirectly [1]. Although the design process of the Macintosh laryngoscope was mentioned in 1944, detailed feature...
متن کاملSelf-retaining lip retractor for use with the Macintosh laryngoscope.
Dear Sir, In the April 1950 edition of your Journal, Dr. Esplen illustrated a metal anaesthetic screen for use in thoracotomies in the lateral position. I agree that such a screen is essential to maintain a good view of the patient's airway, and more particularly to facilitate bronchoscopy without disturbing the operative field should it become necessary during operation. Such a screen can well...
متن کاملThe McGrath Series 5 video laryngoscope versus the Macintosh laryngoscope: a randomized trial in obstetric patients.
BACKGROUND/AIM Anesthesiologists have encountered various difficulties in securing the airway. Therefore, we compare the intubation times and hemodynamic changes between the McGrath Series 5 video laryngoscope and the Macintosh laryngoscope. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 80 obstetric patients were divided into 2 groups, orotracheally intubated with either the McGrath video laryngoscope or ...
متن کاملCervical spine motion: a fluoroscopic comparison of the AirTraq Laryngoscope versus the Macintosh laryngoscope.
BACKGROUND The optimal technique to intubate the trachea in patients presenting with a potential or documented cervical spine (C-spine) injury remains unresolved. Using continuous fluoroscopic video assessment, C-spine motion during laryngoscopy with an AirTraq Laryngoscope (King Medical Systems, Newark, DE) was compared to that with intubation using a Macintosh blade. METHODS Twenty-four hea...
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...
