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

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.

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

Comparison of channelled videolaryngoscope and intubating laryngeal mask airway for tracheal intubation in obese patients: a randomised clinical trial [PDF]
Background: Obesity causes various difficulties in intubation and ventilation, which are confronted due to increased fat tissue in the upper airway and diminished compliance in the chest wall. Videolaryngoscopes and Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway (ILMA)

Combined use of an Airtraq® optical laryngoscope, Airtraq video camera, Airtraq wireless monitor, and a fibreoptic bronchoscope after failed tracheal intubation [PDF]
To the Editor, Optical technology and fibreoptic systems have resulted in significant advances in management of the difficult airway. Optical laryngoscopes, such as the Airtraq (Prodol Meditec S.A., Vizcaya, Spain), provide an improved indirect view of the upper airway, achieving a higher intubation success rate than direct laryngoscopy.

We report on a case of mechanical damage to the spiral‐filled polyvinyl chloride endotracheal tube that occurred shortly after tracheal intubation using a channeled videolaryngoscope (Pentax airway scope). We also found this problem in two other cases among 350 neurosurgery patients over the past 5 years.

Oral Injury Caused by the Airtraq®
エアトラック®を用いた挿管で口腔内裂傷を起こした1例を経験した. 挿管を行ったのはエアトラック®の使用経験が20例以上ある麻酔科指導医であった. 挿管操作は円滑であったにもかかわらず, 右口蓋弓の裂傷は長さ3cm, 深さ1cmに及び縫合が必要であった. エアトラック®のブレード先端部分に丸みがなく鋭利であることが原因と考えたが, 2008年1月現在, 製造元ではブレードの仕様変更の予定はない. 当院では当面の安全対策として, シリコン製のカバーを先端部分に装着し先端部分を鈍にして使用している. また, エアトラック®の挿入方法についても再検討し, 推奨されている正中挿入法を遵守するよう心がけている.
