Laringoscopio óptico Airtraq® [PDF]
Anales del Sistema Sanitario de Navarra, 2009 La intubación endotraqueal mediante laringoscopia directa sigue siendo el gold standard entre todas las técnicas de aislamiento de la vía aérea. Se trata, generalmente, de una maniobra segura, pero en ocasiones puede convertirse en una situación de extrema emergencia ante una vía aérea difícil imprevista.

Airtraq™ versus Macintoch laryngoscope in intubation performance in the pediatric population
Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2012 Purpose: Airtraq™ is an optical laryngoscope that allows viewing of the vocal cords without a direct line of sight. The main objective of this prospective, randomized, controlled trial was to evaluate Airtraq intubation characteristics, mainly intubation

Teaching tracheal intubation: Airtraq is superior to Macintosh laryngoscope [PDF]
BMC Medical Education, 2014 Tracheal intubation with Macintosh laryngoscope is taught to medical students as it is a lifesaving procedure. However, it is a difficult technique to learn and the consequences of intubation failure are potentially serious. The Airtraq optical laryngoscope is a relatively novel intubation device, which allows visualization of the glottic plane without

Tracheal intubation using the Airtraq ® : a comparison with the lightwand [PDF]
Anaesthesia, 2010 Summary The Airtraq ® laryngoscope is a new tracheal intubation device that has been developed for the management of normal and difficult airways. As with the lightwand, the Airtraq can be used without placing the patient in the ‘sniffing position’ for direct laryngoscopy ...

Comparison of the Laryngeal View during Tracheal Intubation Using Airtraq and Macintosh Laryngoscopes by Unskillful Anesthesiology Residents: A Clinical Study [PDF]
Anesthesiology Research and Practice, 2011 Background and Objective. The Airtraq laryngoscope (Prodol Meditec, Vizcaya, Spain) is a novel tracheal intubation device. Studies, performed until now, have compared the Airtraq with the Macintosh laryngoscope, concluding that it reduces the intubation ...
