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

Anaesthesia, Volume 79, Issue 8, Page 801-809, August 2024.
Summary 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. There is a lack of clinical data on the effectiveness of videolaryngoscopy relative to direct laryngoscopy rapid sequence intubation in the operating theatre.

Comparison of Direct and Indirect Laryngoscopes in Vomitus and Hematemesis Settings: A Randomized Simulation Trial

BioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Background. Videolaryngoscopes may not be useful in the presence of hematemesis or vomitus. We compared the utility of the Macintosh laryngoscope (McL), which is a direct laryngoscope, with that of the Pentax‐AWS Airwayscope (AWS) and McGRATH MAC (McGRATH), which are videolaryngoscopes, in simulated hematemesis and vomitus settings. Methods.

A Comparison of Performance of Endotracheal Intubation Using the Levitan FPS Optical Stylet or Lary‐Flex Videolaryngoscope in Morbidly Obese Patients

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Introduction. The use of videolaryngoscopes is recommended for morbidly obese patients. The aim of the study was to evaluate the Levitan FPS optical stylet (Levitan) vs Lafy‐Flex videolaryngoscope (Lary‐Flex) in a group of MO patients. Methods. Seventy‐nine MO (BMI > 40 kg m−2) patients scheduled for bariatric surgery were included in the study and ...

HELP-VDL: study protocol for a multicentre, open, randomised, controlled clinical trial comparing the use of the head-elevated laryngoscopy position and the use of a videolaryngoscope to facilitate orotracheal intubation in a patient population without predictable difficulty of intubation

BMJ Open, 2020
Introduction Tracheal intubation remains an everyday challenge for anaesthesiologists, even in patients without suspected difficult airways. The ideal positioning of the patient’s head (flat, raised a few centimetres on a cushion in the sniffing position
