Difficult laryngoscopy made easy with a “BURP” [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Anaesthesia, 1993
Displacement of the larynx by backward, upward and rightward pressure on the thyroid cartilage or "BURP" may improve visualization of the glottis in some cases of difficult direct laryngoscopy. In a patient with the Treacher-Collins syndrome in whom conventional laryngoscopy had proved impossible and tracheal intubation extremely difficult, this ...
