CR#05 The Airtraq as a rescue airway device following failed direct laryngoscopy: a case series
Anaesthesia, 2007, 62, 598–601. Maharaj CH et Al. Univ. Of Ireland, Galway
This case series details the successful use of the Airtraq in seven such cases, all of whom were intubated on the first attempt with this new device.
In summary, this case series demonstrates that the Airtraq offers an alternate approach to securing the difficult airway where attempts to do so by conventional direct laryngoscopy have failed.
