Quantitative analysis of gaze and body movement differences by proficiency in direct and video laryngoscope intubation [PDF]
Scientific ReportsIn the practice of medicine, tracheal intubation is a critical procedure, yet medical education often lacks quantitative instructional methods, relying instead on intuitive guidance from experts. This study used motion capture and eye tracking to analyze

Accuracy of a smartphone to test laryngoscope's light and an audit to our laryngoscopes using an ISO standard [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Anestesiologia, 2016 Background and objectives: Laryngoscope is a key tool in anesthetic practice. Direct laryngoscopy is a crucial moment and inadequate laryngoscope's light can lead to catastrophic consequences.

A periscope-based, 3D printed indirect laryngoscope for resource limited settings: a non-randomized observational manikin trial [PDF]
International Journal of Emergency MedicineBackground In the United States and other resource-rich settings, video laryngoscopy is often favored for emergency intubation over direct laryngoscopy due to ease of use and improved performance in difficult airways.

Comparison of tracheal intubation using videolaryngoscopy versus videolaryngoscope-assisted flexible tracheoscopy in patients with simulated manual in-line stabilisation – A randomised controlled trial [PDF]
Indian Journal of AnaesthesiaBackground and Aims: Airway management in cervical spine injury is challenging, and combining videolaryngoscopy with a flexible tracheoscope could enhance glottic visualisation, addressing the limitations when used alone.

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 [PDF]
Revista 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

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