Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyLearning endotracheal intubation using a novel videolaryngoscope improves intubation skills of medical students.
Teaching endotracheal intubation to medical students is a task provided by many academic anesthesia departments. We tested the hypothesis that teaching with a novel videolaryngoscope improves students' intubation skills. ⋯ Education using a video system mounted into a traditional Macintosh blade improves intubation skills in medical students.

Multicenter Study
The C-MAC videolaryngoscope for prehospital emergency intubation: a prospective, multicentre, observational study.
In this preliminary prospective observational study at four physician-led air rescue centres, the efficacy of the C-MAC (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, Germany), a new portable videolaryngoscope, was evaluated during prehospital emergency endotracheal intubations. ⋯ The C-MAC videolaryngoscope was suitable for prehospital emergency endotracheal intubations with complicated airway conditions, such as maxillo-facial trauma. The option to perform direct laryngoscopy and videolaryngoscopy with the same device appears to be exceptionally important in the prehospital setting.
