A comparison of the Airway Scope and McCoy laryngoscope in patients with simulated restricted neck mobility.

Airway scope and gum elastic bougie with Macintosh laryngoscope for tracheal intubation in patients with simulated restricted neck mobility.

BACKGROUND /st> Airway Scope is a new videolaryngoscope which requires less cervical movement during intubation than direct laryngoscopy. Thus, in patients wearing a rigid cervical collar, we compared the efficacy of the Airway Scope and the gum elastic bougie with Macintosh laryngoscope during tracheal intubation. METHODS /st> Anaesthesia was induced with propofol, fentanyl, and rocuronium. ...

Comparison of the Incidence of Sore Throat and Hemodynamic Changes in ‎Airway Management by Macintosh, Glideoscope Laryngoscope and ‎Laryngeal Mask Airway Techniques: Randomized Controlled Trial

Background: Studies have shown that postoperative sore throat is the most common complication of tracheal intubation, However, the actual incidence and extent of it are not well documented. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the incidence of sore throat and hemodynamic Changes in Macintosh, Glidescope Laryngoscope and laryngeal mask airway  techniques in elective surg...

Evaluation of the success rate and quality of teaching of tracheal intubation to medical students by using video laryngoscope

Background: Training of airway management and tracheal intubation skill in emergencies for resuscitation of patients are basic skills for medical students. However, the success rate of beginners in this skill is low. Video laryngoscopes are new devices that can increase the success of endotracheal intubation training. Methods: This clinical trial was conducted with 30 medical students who came...

An Airway which Facilitates intubation with a Fiberoptic Laryngoscope

Comparison of success of tracheal intubation using Macintosh laryngoscope-assisted Bonfils fiberscope and Truview video laryngoscope in simulated difficult airway

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Restriction of head and neck movements prevents the alignment of the oral, pharyngeal, and laryngeal axes and increases the incidence of difficult tracheal intubation in patients with cervical spine fractures. Video laryngoscopes have gained an important role in the management of difficult intubation, especially in situations with limited head and neck movements. This study ...
