Using a disposable flexible fiberoptic scope as a bougie for difficult intubation
In this case report, we describe two difficult intubations in which an endotracheal tube was threaded over a fiberoptic bronchoscope that was acting as a bougie.

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

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,

BACKGROUND Successful endotracheal intubation requires mental activity and no less important physical activity from the anesthesiologist, so ergonomics of used devices is important.

Snapshot light-field laryngoscope [PDF]
The convergence of recent advances in optical fabrication and digital processing yields a new generation of imaging technology: light-field cameras, which bridge the realms of applied mathematics, optics, and high-performance computing. Herein for the first time, we introduce the paradigm of light-field imaging into laryngoscopy.
