Effect of rigid cervical collar on tracheal intubation using Airtraq®
Background and Aims: Cervical spine immobilisation with rigid cervical collar imposes difficulty in intubation. Removal of the anterior part of the collar may jeopardize the safety of the cervical spine.

Airway management in patients with suspected or confirmed traumatic spinal cord injury: a narrative review of current evidence. [PDF]
Summary Around 1 million people sustain a spinal cord injury each year, which can have significant psychosocial, physical and socio‐economic consequences for patients, their families and society. The aim of this review is to provide clinicians with a summary of recent studies of direct relevance to the airway management of patients with confirmed or ...

Comparison of UESCOPE VL 400, I-View, Non-Channeled Airtraq Videolaryngoscopes and Macintosh Laryngoscope for Tracheal Intubation in Simulated Out-of-Hospital Conditions: A Randomized Crossover Manikin Study. [PDF]
The aim of the study was to test the hypothesis that the results obtained with three different types of video laryngoscopes (UESCOPE VL-400, I-View, Non-Channeled Aitraq) with and without an endotracheal stylet should be better than the results obtained ...

A study to evaluate nasotracheal intubation using Airtraq laryngoscope with a bougie and without a bougie. [PDF]
Background and Aims: Airtraq has been found to be useful in improving the view of the glottis. However, directing the tube tip into the glottis can be challenging during nasotracheal intubation.
