Comparison of sacovlm™ video laryngeal mask-guided intubation and fastrach combined with flexible bronchoscopy-guided intubation -a prospective study
摘要
Laryngeal masks (LMA) are significant in airway management. The newly developed video LMA (SaCoVLM™) allows direct visualization. In our study, we sought to compare the success of intubation between the SaCoVLM™ and the Fastrack LMA using fiberoptic bronchoscopy guidance. Our primary objective was total intubation time, while our secondary objective was postoperative complications.
MethodsPatients (101) intubated with the SaCoVLM™ were categorized as Group V, while those intubated with the Fastrach LMA were categorized as Group F. LMA placement time, intubation time, total intubation time, and postoperative complications within the first 24 h were followed.
ResultsWe found a shorter total intubation time with the SaCoVLM™. Moreover, patients in the Fastrack LMA experienced a higher incidence of sore throat and a greater frequency of blood-stained supraglottic airway devices (SADs). (p < 0.05).
ConclusionsWe found that the SaCoVLM™ is an effective alternative to the Fastrack LMA in terms of LMA placement success and intubation success.
