Filter by:The investigators previous study showed that McGrath Series 5 videolaryngoscope is an alternative tool for double-lumen tube intubation. But it is not determined about the advantages and disadvantages of McGrath Series 5 videolaryngoscope for double-lumen tube intubation, compared with traditional Macintosh laryngoscope.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the McGrath® MAC video laryngoscope is equal or superior when compared to the Glidescope® Ranger and the Macintosh laryngoscope for novice users in a simulated airway manikin.
1. Double-lumen tube intubation is difficult, compared with single lume tube. 2. McGrath Series 5 videolaryngoscope hase been used in difficult airway management, both in anesthetized and awake patients. 3. But there was little information about McGrath Series 5 videolaryngoscope for double-lumen tube intubation.
We will conduct a randomized trial comparing the success rate and time to intubation using the RIFL vs. the fiberoptic bronchoscope, as the latter is commonly held to be the gold standard of difficult airway devices. Specifically, we wish to compare the of intubation between the two devices in patients with potentially difficult airways as defined by an oropharyngeal class 3-4, BMI greater than 35, or in patients with a history of difficult intubation using direct laryngoscopy.
We will investigate the impact biohazard gear has on time to successful intubation and, in particular, determine how the Supraglottic Airway Laryngopharyngeal Tube (Ecolab, Columbus, Missouri) device compares to traditional direct laryngoscopy and fiber-optic (video) intubation techniques.
The purpose of this study was to record the effectiveness of sevoflurane for intubation in Egyptian, non-obstetric, difficult to intubate (DTI) patients undergoing surgery in regards to the rate of intubation success.
In this multicenter study the investigators are going to evaluate the use of six different videolaryngoscopes in patients undergoing elective surgery requiring general anesthesia with intubation. The investigators are hypothesizing that these six videolaryngoscopes will succeed for intubation at first attempt in at least 90% of all cases using a difficult airway simulation with extrication collars. As gold standard, a standard Macintosh blade is being used. The study consists of 6 arms. Each arm includes 120 patients, sums up to a total of 720 patients.
The investigators will evaluate the first attempt visualized blind intubation through an Ambu Aura-i versus an AirQ.
A difficult tracheal intubation can be a problem, even if one has taken all precautions. A possible solution can be using a videolaryngoscope in conjunct with the Bonfils® intubation scope. As such, the videolaryngoscope can be used to achieve the best possible view and space of the laryngeal inlet for the insertion and manoeuvring of the Bonfils® intubation scope.
The investigators evaluated the usefulness of the Glidescope(GVL) compared with direct laryngoscopy in patients whose airway management are anticipated difficult (C&L grade ≥3) by comparing the laryngoscopic view. Also, the investigators compared the effectiveness of smaller-size blade of GVL (GVLs) with standard blade of GVL selected by patient's weight (GVLw) in the same patients.
