“…It is worthy to mention that videolaryngoscopy became a new paradigm for tracheal intubation (e.g., unanticipated and expected difficult airway management) since decades ago [32,55]. Such critical roles and increasing prevalence of videolaryngoscopy have been emerged in many clinical environments, such as emergency rooms, operating theaters, intensive care units, and wards [56][57][58]. Among all the intubating tools, it is interesting to note that optical (lighted and video-assisted) stylets are still not prevalent in many countries so far [59].…”

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a respiratory syndrome caused by SARS-CoV-2, can be transmitted through respiratory droplets and aerosols of droplet nuclei. Aerosol-generating medical procedures (AGMP) are needed to take care of critically ill patients but place health care providers at risk of infection. With limited supplies of personal protective equipment (PPE), barrier systems were developed to help protect health care providers during tracheal intubation. The video intubating stylet shows promise to become the preferred intubation device in conjunction with plastic sheet barriers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…Articles were published from a broad range of countries, with settings including one or multiple of ED, ICU and ward-based settings (see Tables 2 and 3 ). A majority of the included non-guideline papers were relevant to an ED setting (60%) [ 4 , 9 , 29 , 32 , 33 , 35 , 39 , 41 , 42 , 44 – 54 , 60 , 62 , 64 , 66 – 70 , 75 , 76 ]. There were 21 included non-guideline papers (42%) which were relevant to an ICU setting [ 28 , 30 , 34 , 36 – 38 , 40 , 43 , 53 , 55 – 59 , 61 , 63 , 65 , 71 – 74 ].…”

This study aimed to describe how video laryngoscopy is used outside the operating room within the hospital setting. Specifically, we aimed to summarise the evidence for the use of video laryngoscopy outside the operating room, and detail how it appears in current clinical practice guidelines. A literature search was conducted across two databases (MEDLINE and Embase), and all articles underwent screening for relevance to our aims and pre-determined exclusion criteria. Our results include 14 clinical practice guidelines, 12 interventional studies, 38 observational studies. Our results show that video laryngoscopy is likely to improve glottic view and decrease the incidence of oesophageal intubations; however, it remains unclear as to how this contributes to first-pass success, overall intubation success and clinical outcomes such as mortality outside the operating room. Furthermore, our results indicate that the appearance of video laryngoscopy in clinical practice guidelines has increased in recent years, and particularly through the COVID-19 pandemic. Current COVID-19 airway management guidelines unanimously introduce video laryngoscopy as a first-line (rather than rescue) device.

“…A questionnaire, which was based on the clinical experience of Dr Ma. It also referred to some relevant studies conducted in other countries which have similarly assessed emergency departments, [ 10 – 11 ] intensive care units, [ 12 – 13 ] ORs, [ 14 – 15 ] and pre-hospital settings. [ 16 – 17 ] We then distributed the drafts to the survey team members.…”

Managing the difficult airway

Although equipment and human resources are vital elements of difficult airway management (DAM). But the approach and practice of DAM are more important. So, we conducted the present survey to address anesthesiologists of different working years in this knowledge gap. This nationwide cross-sectional study was conducted from October 27, 2016 to November 27, 2016. The survey was completed online in New Youth Anesthesia Forum including DAM assessment, anticipated and unanticipated DAM, difficult airway algorithm, use of the front of neck access (FONA) technique and training, DAM outside the operation room, and difficult extubation management. We received 1935 replies (44%). Mouth opening and Mallampati classification were the most common methods to evaluate difficult airways. When suffering from unanticipated difficult airway 63% less than 10 years anesthesiologists (LA) and 65% more than 10 years anesthesiologists (MA) would ask for help after trying 1 to 2 times ( P = .000). More than 70% of LA and MA respondents reported preferring cannula cricothyrotomy to deal with emergency airway, 507 (41.6%) MA respondents reported that they used FONA techniques to save patients’ lives ( P = .000). Nearly 70% respondents worried full stomach when intubated outside operation room and more than 80% respondents selected auscultation to identify the placement. More than 80% respondents had not used Bougie to assist extubation. A 73.2% respondents know ABS algorithm and 96.4% know Chinese airway expert consensus among MA respondents, this was significant to LA respondents ( P = .000). The respondents in the LA and MA have a training gap in their evaluation of difficult airways, trained and used FONA emergency skills, facilitated of the airway guidelines at home and abroad. Also, we should provide more airway theory and skill training to our young doctors to advanced airway skills.
