Intubation and anatomic alterations

In this picture we have a patient with advanced incisive and micrognatism. We delayed the manipulation procedure so that they saw the format of the fold does tube, taking in bill points that relate the angle formed by the cartilage tireoide, 2 cm from extremity of of the jaw`s angle and upper lip. These points make an individualized adjustment of the fold does tube for each anatomy. The procedure of the intubation after the jaw adjustment`s maneuver takes 5 seg, without difficulties!

For an anesthesiologist trained in this technique is very easy. Often it's the first option after to check in laryngoscopy to be a more difficult intubation.

He can do it without a laryngoscope since he has a cathether feeder in it, hence the little light, also notice he can check the position of the tube with the light being visual through the throat.

There may be others but the one that we use is called a lightwand. It is useful in cases where one is concerned about neck extension and or mouth opening and some other situations. I do not use it that much. We got the Glide-scope and McGRATH this came out and I use those more. Lightwand might be more useful in a bloody airway compared to those tools however.

you can just see the light, if the tube is in the trachea. If you don't see this light, you know that you are in the esophagus;)
