Management of difficult tracheal intubation has been facilitated by different techniques which include the use of stylets, introducers, intubating laryngeal mask airway, as well as by the development of special laryngoscope blades and fiberoptic laryngoscopes. The most recent advances for facilitation of difficult tracheal intubation is the introduction of the video-assisted laryngoscopes. The ...

Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is a congenital malformation of craniofacial development, which is associated with difficult tracheal intubation1. Several video laryngoscopes that have recently been developed have been shown to improve the laryngeal view in pediatric patients with difficult airways, including patients with TCS2-4. McGRATH® MAC (MAC; Aircraft Medical, Edinburgh, UK) has more rec...

Management of the airway in neonatal patients with craniofacial abnormalities or facial dysmorphism presents a challenge to health care providers. These patients may require specialized equipment and techniques to secure the airway safely. Video laryngoscopy with standard pediatric sized blades is a newly available and emerging technology and may serve as another tool when a potentially difficu...

STUDY OBJECTIVE Orotracheal intubation (OTI) is commonly used to establish a definitive airway in major trauma victims, with several different cervical spine immobilization techniques and laryngoscope blade types used. This experimental, randomized, crossover trial evaluated the effects of manual in-line stabilization and cervical collar immobilization and 3 different laryngoscope blades on cer...

BACKGROUND The Glidescope Videolaryngoscope (GVL) is a newly developed video laryngoscope. It offers a significantly improved laryngeal view and facilitates endotracheal intubation in difficult airways, but it is controversial in that it offers an improved laryngeal view in normal airways as well. And the price of GVL is expensive. We hypothesized that intubation carried out by fully experience...

Abstract: Introduction: The orotracheal intubation is an important procedure in airway management, especially when performed emergency situations. Video-laryngoscopy artifice that facilitates visualization of the glottis, aiding intubation. Objective: This study aimed to attach a video camera conventional Macintosh-type laryngoscope enable and train or otracheal training. Method: use coupled al...
