Abstract
Tracheal intubation is one of the most commonly performed procedures in the operating room (OR), intensive care unit (ICU) and emergency department (ED). Tracheal intubation in the emergency department: A comparison of GlideScope® video laryngoscopy to direct laryngoscopy in 822 intubations. Time Taken for Videolaryngoscopy Few studies have reported a longer time to intubation with the use of VL as compared with DL.[[5]],[[30]] Though the difference may just be a few seconds, this time becomes relevant in critically ill patients, who have limited physiological reserves and may rapidly desaturate during tracheal intubation.
