The McCoy laryngoscope expands the laryngeal aperture in patients with difficult intubation.
To the Editor:-The McCoy levering laryngoscope is a useful device,’.’ but does not uniformly improve the view in some cases of difficult laryngoscopy.’.’ We report a case in which the McCoy laryngoscope did not improve the direct view of the larynx, but instead lifted the epiglottis and expanded structures around the laryngeal aperture (LA), thereby facilitating “blind” tracheal intubation. A 7...
متن کاملStability Analysis of Laminated Cylindrical Shells under Combined Axial Compression and Non-Uniform External Pressure
This study investigates geometrical non-linear analysis of composite circular cylindrical shells under external pressure over part of their surfaces and also shells subjected to combined axial compression and triangular external pressure. Donnell non-linear shell theory along with first order shear deformation theory (FOSD) are adopted in the analysis. In the case of combined axial compression ...

15 صفحه اولChanging the laryngoscope blade and its effect on laryngeal visualization.
To the Editor: Amour and colleagues compared single-use with reusable metal laryngoscope blades and found better laryngeal exposure and more successful intubation with the former. Laryngeal visualization and subsequent tracheal intubation are dependent, however, on many other factors besides the blade type. Upper airway anatomy, experience of the laryngoscopist, adequate relaxation, patient’s h...
متن کاملA comparison of the Airway Scope and McCoy laryngoscope in patients with simulated restricted neck mobility.
We compared the efficacy of the Airway Scope and McCoy laryngoscope as intubation tools with the neck stabilised by a rigid cervical collar. After induction of anaesthesia and neck stabilisation, 100 patients were randomly assigned to tracheal intubation with an Airway Scope or McCoy laryngoscope. Overall intubation success rate, time required for intubation, number of intubation attempts requi...
