dc.description.abstract | securing airway in emergency conditions and in administration of general anesthesia. They range from simple rigid scopes with a light bulb to complex fiber optic video devices. Objectives: The purpose of the study was tocompare laryngoscopy and intubating conditions in three groups of patients using Macintosh, McCoy and Airtraq laryngoscope:Visualisation of pharyngeal structures and larynx as per Modified Cormack and Lehane grading; Hemodynamics; Adverse effects, if any. Settings and Design: Randomised prospective comparative study. Methods and Material: after obtaining ethical committee approval, 90 adult patients of either sex, aged between 18 to 60 years, of physical status ASA Grade I and Grade II undergoing elective surgeries under general anesthesia after obtaining written informed consent were included. Divided into 3 groups of 30 each and randomly allocated. Group I -Patients intubated with Macintosh laryngoscope (n-30); Group II - Patients intubated with Airtraq optical laryngoscope (n-30); Group III -Patients intubated with McCoy laryngoscope (n-30). The laryngoscopy view obtained was compared according to Cormack and Lehane grading. The change in systolic, diastolic, mean arterial pressure, pulse rate and SpO2 will be recorded at pre-induction, pre-intubation and post intubation at 1, 3 and 5 minutes. Statistical analysis used: The demographic data was analysed using descriptive statistics and expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Categorical data was analyzed by chi square test. P value of 0.05 or less was considered statistically significant. Results: Airtraq laryngoscope improved the Cormack and Lehane glottic view compared with the McCoy and Macintosh laryngoscopes. The maximum change in HR was 24% in the Macintosh, 2.27% in the Airtraq and 11.9% in the McCoy group, and increase mean arterial pressure was 20.63% in the Macintosh, 4.37% in the Airtraq and 7.37% in the McCoy group. This difference between the three groups was significant (P <0.0001). Conclusions: From the present study, it is concluded that Airtraq optical laryngoscope provides a better glottic exposure and triggers minimal hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and intubation when compared to Macintosh and McCoy. | en_US |
