- Brief Summary
Successful intubation of the trachea without airway trauma by emergency physicians in cadavers is achievable by either fibre-optic airway scope via a supraglottic airway device or hyperangulated video laryngoscope. Hyperangulated video laryngoscope was statistically but arguably not clinically significantly faster than fibre-optic airway scope via supraglottic airway device.
