Filter by:In this prospective, randomized, controlled trial, the purpose is to compare Macintosh laryngoscope, EzVision® video laryngoscope, McGrath® video laryngoscope and Storz® video laryngoscope in terms of hemodynamic response associated with intubation in adult patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery (CABG).
Tracheal intubation in the intensive care unit (ICU) is associated with high incidence of difficult intubation and complications. Videolaryngoscopes (VLs) devices have been proposed to improve airway management, and the use of VLs are recommended as first-line or after a first-attempt failure using direct laryngoscopy in ICU airway management algorithms. Although until relatively few years ago there were doubts about whether videolaryngoscopes had advantages over direct laryngoscopy for endotracheal intubation (ETI) in critically ill patients, two recent studies (DEVICE (1), INTUBATE (2)), and a Cochrane review (3) have confirmed that videolaryn should be used?, and what is the best blade? . There are two types of blades commonly used with videolaryngoscopes: the "Macintosh" blade with a slight curvature, and hyperangulated blades. The "Macintosh" blades have a lower angle of vision, but they have the advantage of being similar to the blades commonly used in direct laryngoscopy, making them easy to use for the person performing the ETI. Hyperangulated blades have a greater angle of vision, improving glottic visualization, especially in patients with an anterior glottis. However, the need to overcome this angulation could potentially hinder the passage of the endotracheal tube to the vocal cords. It is unknown if either blade has any advantage for intubating critically ill patients.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the predictive factors for successful videolaryngoscopic intubation without stylet.
Tracheal intubation in critical care is a high-risk procedure requiring significant expertise and airway strategy modifications, such as awake intubation with video laryngoscope or flexible endoscope intubation. Furthermore, delayed sequence intubation can be used by experts in certain high-risk subgroups. The investigators hypothesise that awake tracheal intubation is associated with a lower incidence of severe adverse events than standard tracheal intubation in critical care patients.
The aim of the study was to observe the vidiac score values of only patients with obesity as a risk factor for difficult intubation. Secondly, it was aimed to evaluate the number of intubation attempts and intubation time, vidiac scores between obese and morbid obese patients and to reveal the differences, if any.

Videolaryngoscopy-guided intubation has become widespread as a means of preventing major complications relating to airway management by improving the glottic view, increasing the first attempt success rate, likely reduce rates of hypoxemic events, while reducing the rate of airway trauma. However, as randomized controlled studies in patients with anticipated difficult intubation undergoing ear nose and throat (ENT) or oral and maxillofacial (OMF) surgery are lacking, it is still unknown if hyperangulated blades improve glottic view and if their use translates into faster intubation. The primary aim of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the percentage of glottic opening (POGO) between hyperangulated blades and Macintosh blades in patients with expected difficult intubation undergoing ENT or OMF surgery who require transoral tracheal intubation. Secondary aims are to compare secondary outcome measures such as time variables, indicators for difficult and successful intubation, number of attempts, view conditions, difficult airway classifications and adverse events between both blade types.
The primary outcome of the study is the first-attempt orotracheal intubation success rate and the secondary outcomes include intubation time, mucosal injury, and complications during intubation.
This study aims to evaluate the clinical performance, quality of larynx visualization and difficulty of videolaryngoscopic intubation in patients with a reduced mouth opening (1.0 to 3.0 cm) utilizing the latest generation of GlideScopeTM Spectrum low profile laryngoscopy system.
