Difficult Pediatric Airway Management: A Randomized Trial Comparing Laryngeal Mask Airway, Video‐Assisted, and Direct Laryngoscopy

Abstract: Objectives: Compare advanced airway placement (1) success rate and (2) time taken between direct laryngoscopy, video-assisted laryngoscopy, and laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in a difficult infant airway simulator. Methods: Prospective, randomized trial in an cademic, tertiary medical center. Twenty-two pediatric residents, interns, and medical students were tested between November 2013 and January 2014. Participants were provided a single training session by faculty from the subspecialties of pediatric otolaryng… Show more

“…However, patient intubation in a difficult airway requires specialized technical skills, availability of appropriate equipment, and proper assessment of the clinical situation and priorities [ 1 ]. Consequently, experienced and inexperienced physicians or allied health professionals routinely encounter difficult intubation situations in the hospital and prehospital settings [ 2 ]. Moreover, predicting airway management-related difficulties remains a challenge and cause of frustration among anesthesiologists [ 3 ].…”
