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

The levering laryngoscope [PDF]
Anaesthesia, 1993 SummaryThis is a report of a modification of the standard Macintosh laryngoscope blade to facilitate tracheal tube placement in cases of difficult visualisation of the larynx. The modification offers the unique advantage of a hinged blade tip, controlled by a lever on the handle of the larygoscope which allows elevation of the epiglottis while ...

A comparison of the video laryngoscopes with Macintosh laryngoscope for nasotracheal intubation.
Asian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2017 Nasotracheal intubation (NTI) is usually required in patients undergoing maxillofacial surgery. Though video-scopes have been demonstrated to perform well in oral endotracheal intubation, limited information is available concerning NTI. The aim of the study is to compare the efficiency of video-scopes and the traditional direct laryngoscopy in NTI. One

Comparison between GlideRite® rigid stylet and Parker Flex-It™ stylet to facilitate GlideScope intubation in simulated difficult intubation: a randomized controlled study [PDF]
Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2022 Background The GlideScope® videolaryngoscope (GVL) is widely used in patients with difficult airways and provides a good glottic view. However, the acute angle of the blade can make insertion and advancement of an endotracheal tube (ETT) more difficult ...
