Assessment of cervical spine movement during laryngoscopy with Macintosh and Truview laryngoscopes

open access: yesJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2013
Background: Truview laryngoscope provides an indirect view of the glottis and will cause less cervical spine movement since a ventral lifting force will not be required to visualize the glottis compared to Macintosh laryngoscope.

A comparison of McCoy, TruView, and Macintosh laryngoscopes for tracheal intubation in patients with immobilized cervical spine

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2014
Background: Cervical spine immobilization results in a poor laryngeal view on direct laryngoscopy leading to difficulty in intubation. This randomized prospective study was designed to compare the laryngeal view and ease of intubation with the Macintosh,

A randomised crossover trial comparing the Airtraq ® NT, McGrath ® MAC and Macintosh laryngoscopes for nasotracheal intubation of simulated easy and difficult airways in a manikin

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2016
OBJECTIVE: Several devices can aid nasotracheal intubation when managing difficult airways. The McGrath MAC and Airtraq NT were compared with a Macintosh laryngoscope when studying the performance of anaesthetists with different levels of experience, in

Comparative effectiveness of laryngoscopes for successful intubation in difficult adult airways: A systematic review. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Crit Illn Inj Sci
BACKGROUND: Endotracheal intubation (ETI) is a commonly performed emergency procedure used to secure the airways in critically ill patients. Despite its importance, ETI presents significant risks to patients with difficult airways.

Usefulness of C-curved stylet for intubation with the C-MAC Miller videolaryngoscope in neonates and infants: a prospective randomized controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2023
Background Optimizing endotracheal tube (ETT) shape is important for successful videolaryngoscope-aided intubation. This prospective randomized controlled study aimed to compare the tube-handling time between a C-curved and hockey stick-shaped stylet in ...

A novel technique of handling the blade for videolaryngoscopy intubation in patients with a semi-rigid neck collar: a prospective randomized controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yesKorean 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.

Hyperangulated blades or direct epiglottis lifting to optimize glottis visualization in difficult Macintosh videolaryngoscopy: a non-inferiority analysis of a prospective observational study

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2023
PurposeIt is unknown if direct epiglottis lifting or conversion to hyperangulated videolaryngoscopes, or even direct epiglottis lifting with hyperangulated videolaryngoscopes, may optimize glottis visualization in situations where Macintosh ...
