Article Synopsis
- The study compares video-assisted laryngoscopy (VL) and direct laryngoscopy (DL) for emergency tracheal intubation in the ED, highlighting the need for better airway management due to high failure rates.
- It analyzed data from 3,424 patients, finding no significant difference in overall intubation success rates, but VL showed fewer peri-intubation adverse events (33% vs. 40%).
- While DL had a higher first-attempt success rate among experienced intubators, both methods are effective, emphasizing that the choice of technique and experience significantly impacts outcomes.
