Cricoid pressure is useful in fasted patients requiring emergency intubation. We compared the effect of cricoid pressure on laryngeal view during Macintosh, McGrath MAC X-Blade and GlideScope video laryngoscopy.
After obtaining approval from the Human Research Ethics Committee and written informed consent from patients, we enrolled 120 patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists I-II, age 18-65 years) undergoing elective surgery that required endotracheal intubation in this prospective randomised study. Patients were divided into three groups (Macintosh, McGrath MAC X-Blade and GlideScope).
Demographic and airway variables were similar in the groups. Cormack-Lehane grades were improved or unchanged on using cricoid pressure in Macintosh and McGrath MAC X-Blade groups. However, laryngeal views worsened in 12 patients (30%), remained unchanged in 26 patients (65%) and improved in 2 patients (5%) in the GlideScope group (p<0.001). Insertion and intubation times for Macintosh and McGrath MAC X-Blade video laryngoscopes were similar. Insertion times for GlideScope and Macintosh video laryngoscopes were similar, but were longer than those for the McGrath MAC X-Blade video laryngoscope (p=0.02). Tracheal intubation took longer with the GlideScope video laryngoscope than with the other devices (p<0.001 and p=0.003). Mean arterial pressures after insertion increased significantly in Macintosh and GlideScope groups (p=0.004 and p=0.001, respectively) compared with post-induction values. Heart rates increased after insertion in all three groups compared with post-induction values (p<0.001). Need for optimisation manoeuvres and postoperative minor complications were comparable in all three groups.
Although all three devices are useful for normal or difficult intubation, cricoid pressure improved Cormack-Lehane grades of Macintosh and McGrath MAC X-Blade video laryngoscopes but statistically significantly worsened that of the GlideScope video laryngoscope.
环状软骨压迫法对需要紧急插管的禁食患者有用。我们比较了环状软骨压迫法对使用麦金托什喉镜、麦格拉斯MAC X型叶片喉镜和GlideScope视频喉镜时喉镜视野的影响。
在获得人类研究伦理委员会批准并征得患者书面知情同意后,我们纳入了120例(美国麻醉医师协会分级I-II级,年龄18 - 65岁)接受择期手术且需要气管插管的患者,进行这项前瞻性随机研究。患者被分为三组(麦金托什喉镜组、麦格拉斯MAC X型叶片喉镜组和GlideScope视频喉镜组)。
三组患者的人口统计学和气道变量相似。在麦金托什喉镜组和麦格拉斯MAC X型叶片喉镜组中,使用环状软骨压迫法时,科马克-莱汉内分级得到改善或保持不变。然而,GlideScope视频喉镜组中有12例患者(30%)喉镜视野变差,26例患者(65%)喉镜视野不变,2例患者(5%)喉镜视野改善(p<0.001)。麦金托什喉镜和麦格拉斯MAC X型叶片视频喉镜的插入和插管时间相似。GlideScope视频喉镜和麦金托什视频喉镜的插入时间相似,但长于麦格拉斯MAC X型叶片视频喉镜的插入时间(p = 0.02)。GlideScope视频喉镜进行气管插管的时间比其他设备长(p<0.001和p = 0.003)。与诱导后相比,麦金托什喉镜组和GlideScope视频喉镜组插入后平均动脉压显著升高(分别为p = 0.004和p = 0.001)。与诱导后相比,三组患者插入后心率均升高(p<0.001)。三组患者中优化操作的需求和术后轻微并发症相当。
尽管所有三种设备都可用于正常或困难插管,但环状软骨压迫法改善了麦金托什喉镜和麦格拉斯MAC X型叶片视频喉镜的科马克-莱汉内分级,但在统计学上显著恶化了GlideScope视频喉镜的分级。
