ABSTRACT
Traditional Direct laryngoscope (DL) has been used by anesthesiologist during intubation for general anesthesia patients for more than a century. Video laryngoscope (VL) helps in better visualization of laryngeal orifice during intubation and reduces intubation time. This was a cross sectional study conducted in two Asian Hospitals Queen Elizabeth II hospital of Kotakinabalu, Malaysia and King Faisal Hospital Taif of Saudi Arabia to assess the first-pass success of video laryngoscope and to compare with direct laryngoscope from July 2015 to December 2017. Random lottery technique was applied for sampling. Participants of both groups (VL and DL) were enrolled by simple lottery method. Total 146 patients were enrolled with a set inclusion criterion. Mallampati class, mouth opening, thyromental distance and mobility of atlantooccipital junction were set as predictors of first-pass success. The first-pass success was 98.7% in mallampati II patients and 92.8% in mallampati III patients. Average success rate was 95.75%. The mean success rate of VL and DL was compared and was found VL had a significantly better first-pass success rate than DL (p<0.05).
