Measurement of forces applied using a Macintosh direct laryngoscope compared with the GlideScope video laryngoscope in patients with at least one difficult intubation risk

Methods Prospective randomized study with REB approval and written, informed consent from all participants. Conclusions GVL laryngoscopy duration is lengthened when compared to Mac. [...]despite the reduction in peak and average forces, GVL impulse forces were similar to Mac.
