Comparison of Different Video Laryngoscopes in Infants Undergoing Neurosurgery: a Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial

February 19, 2020 updated by: Zehra Ipek ARSLAN, Kocaeli University

Comparison of Airtraq, Glidescope and C-mac in Infants

difficult intubation is high in the 0-1 year period. Video laryngoscopes improved intubation success rate when compared to direct laryngoscopy.

We compared the Airtraq, Glidescope, and c-mac video laryngoscopes during intubation of <1 year old children undergoing neurosurgery.

Detailed Description

Aim: difficult intubation is high in the 0-1 year period. Video laryngoscopes improved intubation success rate when compared to direct laryngoscopy.

Methods: We enroll 20 patients age under 1 year old undergoing neurosurgery in this prospective randomized study. We compared the Airtraq, Glidescope, and c-mac video laryngoscopes during intubation of <1 year old children undergoing neurosurgery regarding intubation times and intubation success rates.
