Summary

Videolaryngoscope (Macintosh-type blade) compared with direct laryngoscopy for rapid sequence intubation in the operating room

Detailed description

Video laryngoscopy (VL) is a etablished method of achieving tracheal intubation and there is evidence to show that visualisation of larynx can be improved using VL in failed tracheal Intubation (NAP 4 Report). VL has been shown to improve first attempt success compared to direct laryngoscopy in many clinical settings including intensive care unit (ICU) and emergency department (ED). This is a proposed comparison study of a VL, use in patients with a high risk for pulmonary Aspiration and requiring tracheal Intubation. An national, multi-center, prospective randomized comparative trial is proposed testing the superiority of oral tracheal intubation with the McGrath® MAC versus conventional laryngoscope in adult patients under general anesthesia.

Conditions

• Pulmonary Aspiration of Gastric Contents
