“…In our study, the operator stood on the left side of the patient. Zraier et al reported that the face-to-face approach required a single skilled user and can be used for re-intubation in the intensive care unit and that the Airtraq™ permits fast and easy intubation [24]. We also did not require more than one user in our study, which is similar to the studies of Hilker et al and Robinson et al [25,26].…”

“…Improved lighting and a view through a screen has been shown to facilitate tracheal inlet visualization [ 23 , 24 ]. Only individual solutions have been reported on adding variable types of cameras and monitors to these devices [ 25 – 27 ], while using an existing optional video camera for the Airtraq has been shown to improve the ease of tracheal intubation in specific circumstances [ 10 , 28 ]. We provide the first report about a visualization and intubation app accessible with no charge through the app store and tailored for an existing indirect laryngoscope, allowing direct view with the help of a specific adaptor and comparing its use with a high-resolution videolaryngoscope.…”

We conducted a study assessing the quality and speed of intubation between the Airtraq with its new iPhone AirView app and the King Vision in a manikin. The primary endpoint was reduction of time needed for intubation. Secondary endpoints included times necessary for intubation. 30 anaesthetists randomly performed 3 intubations with each device on a difficult airway manikin. Participants had a professional experience of 12 years: 60.0% possessed the Airtraq in their hospital, 46.7% the King Vision, and 20.0% both. Median time difference [IQR] to identify glottis (1.1 [−1.3; 3.9] P = 0.019), for tube insertion (2.1 [−2.6; 9.4] P = 0.002) and lung ventilation (2.8 [−2.4; 11.5] P = 0.001), was shorter with the Airtraq-AirView. Median time for glottis visualization was significantly shorter with the Airtraq-AirView (5.3 [4.0; 8.4] versus 6.4 [4.6; 9.1]). Cormack Lehane before intubation was better with the King Vision (P = 0.03); no difference was noted during intubation, for subjective device insertion or quality of epiglottis visualisation. Assessment of tracheal tube insertion was better with the Airtraq-AirView. The Airtraq-AirView allows faster identification of the landmarks and intubation in a difficult airway manikin, while clinical relevance remains to be studied. Anaesthetists assessed the intubation better with the Airtraq-AirView.

“…To this end, a large number of optical devices are currently available and their application in various prehospital airway scenarios has been investigated thoroughly [7][8][9][10][11][12]. One commonly optical device for in hospital use is the Airtraq laryngoscope [13]. Previous simulation studies have shown that both the Macintosh and the Airtraq laryngoscope are suitable for airway management in entrapped car accident victims when used by experienced emergency physicians [9] or paramedics [14].…”

Both scenarios of securing the airway seem suitable in this manikin study, with access from the back seat being superior. Although all airway devices were applicable by both groups, paramedics and emergency physicians, supraglottic device placement was faster and always possible at the first attempt. Therefore, the LMA Supreme and the Laryngeal Tube are attractive alternatives for airway management in this context if endotracheal tube placement fails. Furthermore, supraglottic device placement, while the patient is still in the vehicle, followed by a definitive airway once the patient is extricated would be a worthwhile alternative course of action.
