King Vision videolaryngoscope for nasal intubation in predicted difficult airway due to maxillofacial emergencies: A retrospective cohort study
2020
Abstract
Videolaryngoscopy became an integral part of difficult airway algorithms during the last decade. Various videolaryngoscopes with different designs are available on the market.
The King Vision videolaryngoscope (KVL) is a portable device that was introduced to clinical practice in 2014. Few studies evaluated this videolaryngoscope in normal or simulated difficult airways; however, the data related to its performance in real difficult airway situations are sparse.
We would like to present our 3-year experience with the use of KVL with a disposable nonchannelled blade for primary nasotracheal intubation in patients with predicted very difficult airways.
