Neuromuscular Block and Video Laryngoscope to Facilitate Intubation-A Survey of Current Practice in Denmark and Sweden. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) provide optimal conditions for tracheal intubation. A high dose of opioid can be used as an alternative but may give suboptimal conditions for intubation. The use of a video laryngoscope for intubation might eliminate this potential difference.

Orotracheal intubation in infants performed with a stylet versus without a stylet [PDF]
Background: Neonatal endotracheal intubation is a common and potentially life-saving intervention. It is a mandatory skill for neonatal trainees, but one that is difficult to master and maintain.
