Bullard laryngoscope was for the first time used for intubation of the trachea in 232 neurosurgical patients. The advantages of the new laryngoscope and specific problems associated with its use are discussed. The principal advantage is no need in direct laryngoscopy, which permits using this instrument in patients with short and rigid neck, in those with ankylosis of the temporomandibular joint, with injuries to, or unstable spine. The problems are mainly related to obturation of the optic system of the laryngoscope by secretion and to selection of an adequate diameter of the intubation tube.
在232例神经外科患者中首次使用Bullard喉镜进行气管插管。讨论了这种新型喉镜的优点及其使用中存在的具体问题。其主要优点是无需直接喉镜检查，这使得该器械可用于颈部短而僵硬、颞下颌关节强直、脊柱损伤或不稳定的患者。问题主要与喉镜光学系统被分泌物堵塞以及选择合适直径的气管插管有关。
