Comparison of the standard McCoy laryngoscope and video-assisted McCoy laryngoscope for laryngoscopy and intubation in patients with simulated difficult airway.
To compare the effectiveness of the standard McCoy laryngoscope and the video-assisted McCoy laryngoscope for intubation in patients with difficult airways.
Conducted a simulation of difficult airway scenarios
Compared glottic visualisation between standard and video-assisted laryngoscopes
Video-assisted McCoy laryngoscope showed significantly better glottic visualisation compared to standard version
Abstract
The video-assisted McCoy laryngoscope provided significantly better glottic visualisation in patients with simulated difficult airway.
