Abstract

Background: Due to the urgency, comorbidities, and operator variability, numerous tries are frequently necessary for the severely sick patients undergoing urgent endotracheal intubation by direct laryngoscopy, with a higher risk of complications. In order to determine how many tries are required to position a single-lumen tube correctly during endotracheal intubation between video and direct laryngoscopy, we examined the recently published studies.

Method: This investigation was carried out in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) standards. An electronic search was conducted through four online databases: PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. As the main result, we looked for English-language publications from 2017 to 2024 that addressed the first pass success rate for video laryngoscopy or Glide scope.

Result: Six research total-five randomized controlled trials and one retrospective cohort-were included in our review. Airtraq laryngoscope, McGrath, Pentax-Airway Scope, and King VISION are some of the glideslope or video laryngoscopy techniques that are employed. For direct method, the majority of the listed research used Macintosh. Most of the included studies found that first pass success rate was more in VL compared to DL. Most of the included investigations found that the safety outcomes for VL and DL were similar.

Conclusion: Endotracheal intubation required fewer tries when VL was used in place of DL.
