RESUMO
Objective To compare the clinical effects of HC video laryngoscope and fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB)in guidance of endotracheal intubation for patients undergoing cervical surgery.Meth-ods A total of 50 patients (ASA I or II)with cervical vertebra injury,nerve root cervical spondylopathy or cervical spondylotic myelopathy in the first affiliated hospital of Wenzhou medical university were selected, all of whom were undergone selective cervical operations between March 2014 and June 2015.The patients were randomly divided into two groups (n =25):HC video laryngoscope group (group H)and FOB group (group F).After induction of anesthesia,HC video laryngoscope and FOB were used for tracheal intuba-tion.⑴ Intubation time and success rates of intubation were recorded,and visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the difficulty of intubation;⑵ Mean arterial pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR),and rate-pressure product (RPP)before incubation (Tb),immediate after intubation (T0),and 1min after in-cubation (T1)were recorded;(3)Intubation-related complications were recorded.Results ⑴ The dura-tion of intubation (19.7 ±7.1 )s in the group H was significantly shorter than that of group F (51.9 ± 19.2)s (P 0.05).⑶ The incidence of complications (sore throat)was lower in group H (P <0.05).Conclusions Compared to FOB,HC vid-eo laryngoscope-guided selective cervical operation has the characteristics of higher success rate of intubat-ion,shorter operation time,and easier operation,more stable hemodynamics and lower incidence of intuba-tion complications.Therefore,HC video laryngoscope is a safe and effective method in the intubation for pa-tients undergoing cervical surgery.
