Video Laryngoscopy Versus Direct Laryngoscopy in Novices: A Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesActa Medica Iranica
Intubating the trachea is a challenging task, especially for novice intubators. Successful intubation, in the shortest possible time, prevents hypoxia and hemodynamic disturbances.

Prediction of difficult laryngoscopy / difficult intubation cases using upper airway ultrasound measurements in emergency department: a prospective observational study

open access: yesBMC Emergency Medicine, 2023
Introduction Difficult laryngoscopy and intubation are serious problems among critically ill patients in emergency department (ED) so utility of a rapid, accurate and noninvasive method for predicting of these patients are necessary.

Videolaryngoscopy increases ‘mouth‐to‐mouth’ distance compared with direct laryngoscopy

open access: yesAnaesthesia, 2020
The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in the consideration of videolaryngoscopy (VL) for tracheal intubation of patients during an outbreak [1,2]. Benefits of VL compared with a standard curved Macintosh (MAC) blade include postural advantages, improved ...

Is Office Laryngoscopy an Aerosol‐Generating Procedure?

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, 2020
The aims of this work were 1) to investigate whether office laryngoscopy is an aerosol‐generating procedure with an optical particle sizer (OPS) during clinical simulation on healthy volunteers, and 2) to critically discuss methods for assessment of ...

Anterior neck soft tissue measurements on computed tomography to predict difficult laryngoscopy: a retrospective study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Predicting difficult laryngoscopy is an essential component of the airway management. We aimed to evaluate the use of anterior neck soft tissue measurements on computed tomography for predicting difficult laryngoscopy and to present a clear measurement ...

Bronchoscopy, laryngoscopy, and esophagoscopy during the COVID‐19 pandemic

open access: yesHead and Neck, 2020
The United States now has the highest death toll due to COVID‐19. Many otolaryngology procedures, including laryngoscopy, bronchoscopy, and esophagoscopy, place otolaryngologists at increased risk of coronavirus transmission due to close contact with ...

Limited condylar mobility by ultrasonography predicts difficult direct laryngoscopy in morbidlyobese patients: An observational study

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2021
Background and Aims: Unpredictable difficult laryngoscopy remains a challenge for anaesthesiologists, especially in morbidly obese patients. The present study aimed to determine the efficacy of different sonographic measures as predictors of difficult ...

A comparison of the McGrath videolaryngoscope with direct laryngoscopy for rapid sequence intubation in the operating theatre: a multicentre randomised controlled trial

open access: yesAnaesthesia
Aspiration of gastric contents is a recognised complication during all phases of anaesthesia. The risk of this event becomes more likely with repeated attempts at tracheal intubation.
