Summary

Reduce the risk of nosocomial transmission of germs related to the reusability of the laryngoscope handle. The alternative is to replace it with a disposable device, provided that it is as effective as the reference strategy at a reasonable cost.

Conditions

  • Contamination of the Handles
  • Quality of the Laryngoscopy

Interventions

DEVICE

The two groups SU and R are defined by the device with which intubation is performed after a first laryngoscopy done with the other device.

Group SU (Single Use or Laryngobloc ®): the first laryngoscopy is performed with the R and the second laryngoscopy and the intubation is performed with the Laryngobloc ®. Group R (Reusable handle+ disposable metal blade): the first laryngoscopy is performed with the Laryngobloc ® and the second laryngoscopy and the intubation is performed with the R.
