Randomized Controlled Trial
A simulated severe difficult airway does not alter the intubation performance with the SensaScope: a prospective randomised manikin study.
Prospective randomised controlled study. ⋯ The SensaScope performed fairly well in normal intubation anatomy, although its use was more complex than with conventional laryngoscopy and it required a slightly longer time. In the difficult airway setting, the SensaScope performed as well as in normal anatomy, whereas intubation by direct laryngoscopy proved to be impossible. The SensaScope enables the user to overcome severe airway difficulties caused by large tissue masses at the level of the tongue base or mouth floor.
