Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
The macintosh and miller blade are widely used scopes since their invention in 1940’s to visualize glottis and tracheal intubation. We in this era of technology are still practicing same conventional methods inspite of being aware, that new technology of video laryngoscopy had already sets in for airway management. The video laryngoscopes are new intubation devices which contain miniature video cameras, enabling the anaesthesiologist to visualize the glottis indirectly, allowing good exposure of the glottis, thus making tracheal intubation easier as compared to conventional laryngoscopy.
