The Superiority Of Mcgrath Videolaryngoscope After Failed Conventional Laryngoscopy

چکیده
Difficult intubation has been the challenging part of the airway management for anesthesiologists and associated with substantial morbidity and mortality (1, 2). Currently, it is well practiced and documented that direct laryngoscopy has several limitations to cope with securing difficult airway during orotracheal intubation (3). Videolaryngoscopy, which may provide a better view of the tracheal aperture with failed direct laryngoscopy, creates a potential cure to this problem (4). Videolaryngoscopes are now commonly acknowledged and accepted airway management technique that may be easy to use for inexperienced anesthesiologists (5).

Nociceptive stimulation during Macintosh direct laryngoscopy compared with McGrath Mac videolaryngoscopy
BACKGROUND Decrease of the nociceptive stimulation induced by laryngoscopy could be an advantage for patients without risk of difficult intubation. The present study aimed to compare the difference in nociceptive stimulation between the use of a conventional laryngoscope or of a videolaryngoscope. Amount of nociception was assessed indirectly using the peak remifentanil concentration determined...

INTRODUCTION Critically ill patients with acute respiratory, neurological or cardiovascular failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation are at high risk of difficult intubation and have organ dysfunctions associated with complications of intubation and anaesthesia such as hypotension and hypoxaemia. The complication rate increases with the number of intubation attempts. Videolaryngoscopy ...

Editor’s key points † The McGrath videolaryngoscope was compared with the C-MAC videolaryngoscope in patients with anticipated difficult airway. † The C-MAC videolaryngoscope allowed a quicker and easier tracheal intubation. † This research adds important data to ongoing comparisons between various newer airway devices. Background. Difficult and failed intubations, although rarely encountered, ...
متن کاملRandomized controlled trial comparing the McGrath videolaryngoscope with the C-MAC videolaryngoscope in intubating adult patients with potential difficult airways.
BACKGROUND Difficult and failed intubations, although rarely encountered, are major causes of morbidity and mortality in the current anaesthetic practice. To reduce the incidence of difficult and failed intubations, several devices including the recently developed videolaryngoscopes are available. This randomized controlled study aims to compare the use of the McGrath videolaryngoscope with the...
متن کاملComparison of McGrath Series 3 and Macintosh Laryngoscopes for Tracheal Intubation in Patients With Normal Airway by Inexperienced Anesthetists
Difficult and failed intubations account for the major causes of morbidity and mortality in current anesthetic practice. Several devices including McGrath Series 3 videolaryngoscope are available which may facilitate tracheal intubation by improving view of the larynx compared with Macintosh blade laryngoscopy. But no studies demonstrate whether McGrath Series 3 performs better than Macintosh l...
