Comparative evaluation of Truview evo2 and Macintosh laryngoscope for ease of orotracheal intubation in children - A prospective randomized controlled trial.

Background And Aims: Truview evo2 has been found to improve the glottic view when compared with the Miller blade in pediatric population. However, there is limited literature comparing it with Macintosh laryngoscope in children. We thus aimed to assess and compare Truview evo2 with the Macintosh laryngoscope for orotracheal intubation in children with regards to time to intubate, laryngoscopic view, ease of intubation, and associated hemodynamic changes.

Congenital Syngnathia; Turmoils and Tragedy.

Congenital syngnathia is an extremely rare condition with no standardized treatment. We hereby report a case highlighting the difficulties faced in its management and the postoperative complications.

Cricoid pressure with the Truview Evo2™ laryngoscope improves the glottic view.

Objective: The Truview Evo2™ laryngoscope blade is designed to improve glottic view. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of cricoid pressure (CP) on laryngeal view and the ease of orotracheal intubation with the Truview Evo2 laryngoscope.

Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, 50 patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I-II, aged 18 to 60 yr) scheduled for elective surgery were enrolled.
