High impact information on Laryngoscopes

  • Proper insertion and lifting of the laryngoscope were crucial to "good" or "competent" performance of LEI [1].
  • After the standard induction of anesthesia, followed by vecuronium-induced paralysis, a TE was inserted into the trachea with a direct laryngoscope [2].
  • After anesthetic induction (propofol, remifentanil, vecuronium), an endotracheal Mon-Jet catheter (Xomed, Jacksonville, FL) for subglottic jet ventilation and a laryngoscope for supraglottic jet ventilation (Carl Reiner G.m.b.H., Vienna, Austria) were inserted [3].
  • We conducted a postal questionnaire to survey methods of laryngoscope cleaning in units throughout Great Britain. We found that there was great variation in practice [4].
  • Use of the Olympus LF-P fibreoptic laryngoscope by trainees in paediatric anaesthesia [5].

Gene context of Laryngoscopes

  • METHODS: Intubation difficulties with the laryngoscope and the fibrescope in patients with rheumatoid arthritis were investigated during a period of five and a half years [14].
  • Axodendritic and dendrodendritic synapses have been described at the level of the outer spiral bundle (OSB) (Nadol, J.B., Jr., 1983. Laryngoscope 93, 780-791; Bodian, D., 1978. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 75, 4582-4586) [15].
  • The direct light intensity was assessed by directing various laryngoscope/blade combinations towards a multifunction exposure meter (Flash Meter III, Minolta Corp.). Light intensity expressed in Lux was calculated using the formula: lux = 2.5 x 2 exposure index [16].
  • (Shiba K. Isono S, Sekita Y, Tanaka A. Inspiratory activation of the vocal cord adductor, Part I: human study in patients with restricted abduction of the vocal cords. Laryngoscope 2004;114:372-375) [17].
  • An improved Bullard laryngoscope holder: Bullard Mate version 2 [18].
