Use of video rather than direct laryngoscope led to better rates of successful tracheal intubation on the first attempt for critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) or emergency ...

Whether video laryngoscopy as compared with direct laryngoscopy increases the likelihood of successful tracheal intubation on the first attempt among critically ill adults is uncertain. The trial was ...

Across awake tracheal intubations using videolaryngoscopy for suspected difficult airways, the overall success rate was high. Overall or first-attempt success rates did not differ between ...

Airway management is a core emergency medicine competency. Physicians are expected to be able to intubate both adult and pediatric patients safely with a minimum of adverse events. A new study ...

Background Hypoxemia is the most common complication during tracheal intubation of critically ill adults and may increase the risk of cardiac arrest and death. Whether positive-pressure ventilation ...

When techniques that paramedics could improve upon are discussed, often, the topic of advanced airway comes up. We have statistically low success rates in achieving an advanced airway with an ...

Use of hyperangulated video laryngoscopy reduced the number of attempts needed to achieve endotracheal intubation compared with direct laryngoscopy among adults undergoing elective or emergent ...

Intubation can be lifesaving, but it does come with the potential to cause complications. A sore throat is one of the most common side effects. Intubation is when an endotracheal tube is inserted into ...
