Successful airway management with combined use of McGrath MAC video laryngoscope and fiberoptic bronchoscope in a severe obese patient with huge goiter -a case report [PDF]
Huge goitor can lead to tracheal compression and hence difficulty in intubation. This is compounded by severe obesity. Failed tracheal intubation in difficult intubation is a serious event that may lead to increased patient morbidity and mortality ...

Gender, Smoking History and Age Prediction from Laryngeal Images [PDF]
Flexible laryngoscopy is commonly performed by otolaryngologists to detect laryngeal diseases and to recognize potentially malignant lesions. Recently, researchers have introduced machine learning techniques to facilitate automated diagnosis using laryngeal images and achieved promising results.

A comparison of the video laryngoscopes with Macintosh laryngoscope for nasotracheal intubation
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

Successful difficult airway management using GlideScope video laryngoscope in a child with Cornelia de Lange Syndrome [PDF]
Management of airway in a child with Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) should be given due consideration because most of them have the problems related to difficult airway.

Comparison of self-assembled video laryngoscope versus McGrath MAC®: A randomised controlled trial
Background and Aims: Video laryngoscopy highly improves the success rate for endotracheal intubation. However, commercially available video laryngoscopes such as McGrath MAC® can be costly.

Analyzing Zero-Shot Abilities of Vision-Language Models on Video Understanding Tasks [PDF]
Foundational multimodal models pre-trained on large scale image-text pairs or video-text pairs or both have shown strong generalization abilities on downstream tasks. However unlike image-text models, pretraining video-text models is always not feasible due to the difficulty in collecting large-scale clean and aligned data, and exponential ...

The velar chord and dynamic integration of the gular valve in crocodylians
Crocodilians have a unique gular valve that forms a seal between the oral cavity and the pharynx. The gular valve has traditionally been treated as two parts: a mobile ventral flap associated with the tongue and a fixed dorsal velum palatini. This work describes a connective tissue band, the velar chord, which functionally integrates the two parts of ...

Video Laryngoscopes: A Boon for Parapharyngeal Tumors of Childhood
Parapharyngeal tumors often distort the airway anatomy leading to obstruction and hinderance for intubation thus posing a challenge for the anesthetist at securing airway with least damage to the nearby structures.
