Résumé

This study assessed the applicability of C-MAC videolaryngoscope (VL) D-blade for awake intubation in patients with laryngeal tumour. The primary study objective was to determine the rate of successful intubation in the first attempt. The other parameters recorded were number of attempts required for intubation, duration of different stages of intubation, haemodynamics, ease of intubation and patient comfort on visual analogue scale (VAS) postoperatively. Thirty patients were studied. Patients were sedated with dexmedetomidine and fentanyl as a slow bolus (over 20 min) and Ramsay sedation score was assessed. Topicalisation of the oropharynx, tonsillar pillars and base of the tongue was done with lignocaine 10% spray. Four ml of 4% lignocaine using MADgic atomiser was used for anaesthetising the glottis and the tracheal lumen. Successful intubation was achieved in 86.6% patients in first attempt and 13.3% in two attempts. Total time for all intubations was less than 30 seconds. Fremantle score was F-1-C-MAC D-blade (easy intubation with full view) in 60% patients, while 23.3% had F-2-C-MAC D-blade (full view and either required more than one attempt or a modified technique), 13.3% had P-1-C-MAC D-blade (partial view with easy intubation) and 3.3% had P-2-C-MAC D-blade (partial view and required more than one attempt or a modified technique). The VAS score for anaesthesiologist's ease and for patient's experience was 85.83 ± 7.20 and 86.66 ± 14.46, respectively. C-MAC VL D-blade-assisted awake intubation is an effective and safe method to manage the airway of patients with laryngeal tumour once adequate topicalisation is ensured before the procedure.

Background and Aims UNASSIGNED
This study assessed the applicability of C-MAC videolaryngoscope (VL) D-blade for awake intubation in patients with laryngeal tumour. The primary study objective was to determine the rate of successful intubation in the first attempt. The other parameters recorded were number of attempts required for intubation, duration of different stages of intubation, haemodynamics, ease of intubation and patient comfort on visual analogue scale (VAS) postoperatively.
Methods UNASSIGNED
Thirty patients were studied. Patients were sedated with dexmedetomidine and fentanyl as a slow bolus (over 20 min) and Ramsay sedation score was assessed. Topicalisation of the oropharynx, tonsillar pillars and base of the tongue was done with lignocaine 10% spray. Four ml of 4% lignocaine using MADgic atomiser was used for anaesthetising the glottis and the tracheal lumen.
Results UNASSIGNED
Successful intubation was achieved in 86.6% patients in first attempt and 13.3% in two attempts. Total time for all intubations was less than 30 seconds. Fremantle score was F-1-C-MAC D-blade (easy intubation with full view) in 60% patients, while 23.3% had F-2-C-MAC D-blade (full view and either required more than one attempt or a modified technique), 13.3% had P-1-C-MAC D-blade (partial view with easy intubation) and 3.3% had P-2-C-MAC D-blade (partial view and required more than one attempt or a modified technique). The VAS score for anaesthesiologist's ease and for patient's experience was 85.83 ± 7.20 and 86.66 ± 14.46, respectively.
Conclusion UNASSIGNED
C-MAC VL D-blade-assisted awake intubation is an effective and safe method to manage the airway of patients with laryngeal tumour once adequate topicalisation is ensured before the procedure.
