AIM To determine if video laryngoscopy(VL) has significantly impacted management of difficult airways by decreasing the rate of awake fiberoptic intubation(FOI). METHODS Anesthetic records of 3723 patients who underwent general anesthesia at Rush University Medical Center were reviewed over a 2-mo period prior to the introduction of VLs in 2009("pre-VL" group) and over the same 2-mo period after the introduction of VLs in 2012("postVL" group). Patient records with predicted difficult air-ways based on pre-operative airway examination were analyzed. The primary outcome was rate of awake FOI.RESULTS To control for possible factors that may influence the FOI rate, a logistic regression was performed with these factors included as covariates. The rate of awake FOI was 13.1% in pre-VL group compared to 9.0% in post-VL group. Although this decrease was not statistically significant individually(P = 0.1768), it showed a trend toward significance when covariates were accounted for(P = 0.0910). Several factors predicting a higherlikelihood of awake FOI were found to be statistically significant: Morbid obesity(larger BMI P = 0.0154, OR = 1.5 per 10 point BMI increase), male gender(P = 0.0026, OR = 3.0) and a higher el-Ganzouri airway score(P = 0.0007, OR = 1.5). Although VLs were seen to be used to intubate 51% of predicted difficult airways, the rate of awake FOI has not significantly changed.CONCLUSION Although VL may continue to grow in popularity, the most difficult airways are still managed using awake FOI. 展开更多
