2.4 Using the Laryngoscope
1
If possible, position the patient in the optimal position for direct
laryngoscopy. Look into the mouth; insert the blade into the right side of
the mouth, moving the device to a central position while sweeping the
tongue to the left.
2
Advance the blade into the vallecula.
3
Visualize the epiglottis on the screen. Lift the anatomy forwards and
upwards to expose a direct and indirect view of the glottis.
4
When the device is in the optimal position the glottis should be viewed
in the central upper section of the screen.
5
Advance the tube gently and atraumatically through the vocal cords.
Tube placement can be performed either by looking directly in the
mouth, indirectly on the screen or a combination of both.
6
If a direct pathway for the tube was not created by sweeping the
tongue or aligning the airway axes a stylet or a bougie may need to
be used.
7
Indirectly visualize the tube placement through the vocal cords.
8
The screen view can be used to confirm the correct insertion depth of
the endotracheal tube.
