- Abstract
The article discusses the results of a study that compared the portable video laryngoscopes, the Venner A.P. Advance (APA) and GlideScope Range (GSR), in terms of intubation times and potential trauma, in a simulated difficult prehospital airway. The study notes no difference in the time to achieve optimal view between GSR and APA. It concludes that APA showed fewer additional discrete forward advances of the tube and earlier intubation.
