Shiraz University of Medical Sciences401 enrolled

Overview

new glidoscope was tested on 401 patients

Four hundred and one patients who were scheduled for elective operation, were randomly assigned to be intubated by direct laryngoscopy using a Macintosh blade size 3rd (DL, n=196) or intubation using the video laryngoscope (VL, n=205). Prior to intubation all patients were given a similar regimen of induction of anesthesia. The patients were then intubated, using direct laryngoscopy or the VL, by a different anesthetist during which the larynx was inspected and given a laryngoscopy score. Time to intubate, failure rate, injuries, personnel pleasure and, aspiration rate were measured
