Stylet Use for McGrath Videolaryngoscope

November 21, 2016 updated by: Jong Yeop Kim, Ajou University School of Medicine

Comparison of With or Without Use of Stylet for Endotracheal Intubation With McGrath Videolaryngoscope

The routine use of a styletted endotracheal tube during videolaryngoscopy is advocated by some manufacturers, but styletted endotracheal tube can elicit rare but potentially serious complications. We compared the intubation time and success rate whether or not use of stylet for endotracheal intubation with McGrath videolaryngoscope.
