Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
To compare cardiovascular response and POGO scoring with McCoy, Machintosh and TruView EVO-2 laryngoscope. For this randomized prospective study 90 ASA grade Ι and ΙΙ patient of either sex in the age group 20-50yrs, undergoing general anaesthesia for elective surgery were enrolled after approval by the ethical committee. 90 patients were divided randomly in 3 group with (n= 30) TE (Truview EVO-2), MT (Machintosh), MC (McCoy) laryngoscope for proposed surgery under general anaesthesia. Patients were evaluated pre operatively after uniform premedication, induction and relaxation all laryngoscopies were performed by experienced anaesthetist. Vitals were recorded at 1, 3and 5 minutes respectively. POGO (Percentage of Glottic Opening) scoring was done as 100 for full glottis view and 0 as no portion of glottis visualized, by attending anaesthetist. TruView EVO -2 laryngoscope was best in POGO scoring followed by McCoy and then Machintosh. Time taken during laryngoscopy was more with TruView EVO -2 followed by McCoy and Machintosh in that order. Patients were more stable hemodynamically with TruView EVO -2 followed by McCoy and then Machintosh. TruView EVO -2 was found to be a better device in terms of POGO scoring and haemodynamic stability than McCoy and Machintosh laryngoscopes. Keywords: TruView EVO-2, McCoy, Machintosh, POGO scoring.
