Airway management during ongoing chest compressions–direct vs. video laryngoscopy. A randomised manikin study [PDF]
Background Tracheal intubation is used for advanced airway management during cardiac arrest, particularly when basic airway techniques cannot ensure adequate ventilation. However, minimizing interruptions of chest compressions is of high priority.

Pioneers of Laryngoscopy: Indirect, Direct and Video Laryngoscopy [PDF]
Airway management is one of the core skills of the anaesthetist and various techniques of airway management have developed over many years. Initially, the only view of the glottis that could be obtained was an indirect view (indirect laryngoscopy). Late in the 19th century, a direct view of the glottis was obtained via various direct laryngoscopes ...

Determination of Optimal Magill Forceps Hand Position and Laryngoscope Type to Remove a Simulated Foreign Body Airway Obstruction [PDF]
Introduction: Foreign body removal for airway obstruction is an infrequent skill performed by paramedics, and Magill forceps for removal of a foreign body from the airway is reserved for patients with persistent obstruction.

Two case reports of soft palate perforation as a complication of video laryngoscope-assisted tracheal intubation: mechanism analysis and preventative strategies [PDF]
Background Video laryngoscopes have gradually replaced direct laryngoscopes as an aid for tracheal intubation in various scenarios, increasing intubation success rates and facilitating difficult airway management.

The Efficacy of Using Video Laryngoscopy on Tracheal Intubation by Novice Physicians [PDF]
Introduction: The first successful attempt at tracheal intubation with minimal complications is crucial for emergency physicians. The aim of this study was to compare endotracheal intubation using video laryngoscopy versus direct laryngoscopy in the ...

Background and objectives: Several anthropometric measurements have been suggested to identify a potentially difficult airway. We studied thyromental height (TMH) as a predictor of difficult laryngoscopy and difficult intubation.

Advances in laryngoscopy: rigid indirect laryngoscopy [PDF]
There is a growing body of evidence to support the use of rigid indirect laryngoscopy or 'video' laryngoscopy for tracheal intubation. We summarise some of the key issues, comparing rigid indirect laryngoscopy with direct conventional laryngoscopy.

Comparison of Haemodynamic Response to Endotracheal Intubation with Videolaryngoscopy and Direct Laryngoscopy in Hypertensive Patients- A Randomised Clinical Trial [PDF]
Introduction: Cardiovascular responses to direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation have been well documented and are caused by noxious stimuli. A videolaryngoscope facilitates visualisation of the vocal cords with minimal stretch on the airways ...
