Summary

The US Military is rapidly transitioning into preparing for multi-domain operations. Previous data demonstrates that the most common airway replaced in the prehospital combat setting is endotracheal intubation. Previous studies have suggested that video laryngoscopy (VL) is superior to direct laryngoscopy (DL), which is most prominently noted in the office users . However, the current durable equipment video laryngoscopes are very expensive and cost prohibitive for dispersion around the battlefield. The i-view is a novel video laryngoscope that is marketed for VL and is inexpensive and disposable. Both the durable VL and the i-view are already in use in our emergency department (ED). The investigators are also already collecting data using these devices as part of an approved protocol for an airway registry. The investigators are seeking to utilizing a clinical rotating protocol to compare these two devices in the emergency department.

Conditions

  • Intubation; Difficult or Failed
  • Airway Obstruction

Interventions

DEVICE

I View Video Laryngoscope https://www.intersurgical.com/content/files/108253/-1977057700

All intubations will be performed at the direction of the attending clinician. The decision to intubate is based purely on clinical factors by the primary team. The decision to use VL device will be at the direction of the clinical team. No patient will be recruited specific for this procedure.
