Comparison of the standard McCoy laryngoscope and video-assisted McCoy laryngoscope for laryngoscopy and intubation in patients with simulated difficult airway [PDF]
Indian Journal of AnaesthesiaBackground and Aims: Video laryngoscopes provide better visualisation of glottis and easier tracheal intubation as compared to the McCoy laryngoscope. However, cost constraints limit their use. The video-assisted McCoy laryngoscope provides the advantage

A comparative study of glottis visualization according to the method of lifting the epiglottis in video laryngoscopy: indirect and direct lifting methods [PDF]
Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2021 Background The direct entry of the camera under the epiglottis may provide a better view of the glottis than the indirect lifting of the epiglottis by placing the Macintosh blade tip on the vallecula when using the video laryngoscope. This study aimed to

A novel technique of handling the blade for videolaryngoscopy intubation in patients with a semi-rigid neck collar: a prospective randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2023 Background Semi-rigid neck collars to protect the cervical spine can limit the extent of neck movement and mouth opening; this may further complicate orotracheal intubation.

Clinical Predictors of Postintubation Bilateral Vocal Fold Immobility
International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2022 Introduction Iatrogenic bilateral vocal fold immobility (BVFI) often arises from posterior glottic stenosis (PGS) after endotracheal intubation, whereby posterior commissure mucosal disruption leads to fibrosis and ankylosis of the cricoarytenoid joints.
