C-MAC D-Blade vs Airtraq for Intubation with Manual Inline Axial Stabilisation- A Randomised Clinical Trial [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021
Introduction: One of the most important skills in anaesthesia is securing the airway with an endotracheal tube. Difficult tracheal intubation however is considered one of the major contributors of anaesthesia related morbidity and mortality.

A manikin study comparing the performance of traditional Macintosh laryngoscope, GlideScope®, Airtraq®, and video‐optical intubation stylet in endotracheal intubation used by emergency doctors in simulated difficult airway intubation: A pilot study

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 179-188, May 2023., 2023
Background: The video‐optical intubation stylet (VS) is a slim, rigid but flexible intubating device that aids physicians to intubate patients, particularly with difficult airways. Objectives: The objective of this study was to compare the performance of emergency department doctors in using different intubating devices for intubation in an airway ...

Comparative Preference of Airtraq Laryngoscope Over Macintosh Laryngoscope- A Review [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2023
Tracheal intubation using a Macintosh laryngoscope can save lives. However, because intubation is a difficult procedure to master, failures can have disastrous results. A more recent intubation tool than the Macintosh is the Airtraq optical laryngoscope,

Video screen visualization patterns when using a video laryngoscope for tracheal intubation: A systematic review

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Published studies of video laryngoscopes are often limited by the lack of a clear definition of video laryngoscopy (VL). We performed a systematic review to determine how often published studies of VL report on video screen visualization.

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.

A manikin study comparing the performance of the GlideScope®, the Airtraq® and the C‐MAC® in endotracheal intubation using suction‐assisted laryngoscopy airway decontamination techniques in a simulated massive haematemesis scenario by emergency doctors

Hong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 291-304, September 2021., 2021
Background: The suction‐assisted laryngoscopy and airway decontamination (SALAD) techniques (level 1, SALAD‐1 and level 2, SALAD‐2) are newly proposed airway management skills to facilitate endotracheal intubation in patients with massive haematemesis. A pilot study using GlideScope® demonstrated the superior performance of SALAD‐1 technique in massive
