Title: Comparing Intubating Conditions and Stress Response with CMAC D?Blade and McCoy Laryngoscope: A Guide to New Anaesthetists

Abstract

Laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation are the most commonly performed procedures by an anaesthesiologist. This study was undertaken to compare intubating conditions and hemodynamic stress response to laryngoscopy and ETI. This was a prospective, simple randomized, comparative study done in 60 patients for 2 years comparing the CMAC D?blade with McCoy laryngoscope regarding intubation time, procedure time, hemodynamic stress response, intubation difficulty score, adverse effects, and complications.Statistically significant differences were seen between both groups regarding intubation time, procedure time, and grade of ease. CMAC D?blade VLS is a better choice for ETI than McCoy laryngoscope. CMAC D?blade could offer new perspective in managing patients with difficult airway and cervical spine injury.
