Randomized Controlled Trial
Videolaryngoscope for Teaching Neonatal Endotracheal Intubation: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
To assess whether the videolaryngoscope (VL) is superior to the classic laryngoscope (CL) in acquiring skill in neonatal endotracheal intubation (ETI) and, once acquired with the VL, whether the skill is transferable to the CL. ⋯ When learning ETI, the success rate is improved with the VL. Time to successful intubation is longer, but the difference is not clinically significant. When switched to the CL, residents' success rate slightly decreased, but not significantly. This suggests that residents retain a certain level of ETI skill when switched to the CL. The VL is a promising tool for teaching neonatal ETI.

Comparison of the C-MAC Videolaryngoscope and Rigid Fiberscope with Direct Laryngoscopy in Easy and Difficult Airway Scenarios: A Manikin Study.
Intubation is a fundamental skill in maintaining adequate oxygenation and ventilation of seriously ill patients. ⋯ The Bonfils and C-MAC enabled better visualization of the glottic opening when compared with the Macintosh laryngoscope.
