Endotracheal Intubation Comparing Airtraq and McCoy Laryngoscope in Patients with Simulated Cervical Spine Immobilization
Both Airtraq and McCoy laryngoscope offer high success rates in simulated difficult airways. However, Airtraq provides improved ease of intubation, better glottic view, and lesser hemodynamic alterations as compared to McCoy laryngoscope.
