Anesthesiologists as a clinician is always ready with various plan and instrument to safeguard the airway. He is ready with backup plan whether it is anticipated or unanticipated difficult airway. Unusual anatomic configurations may be encountered when the airway is difficult itself. Best accessories such as bougie, stylet, prism, angle adaptorand mirrors as well as various methods of laryngoscopy such as modified straight blade laryngoscopes were tried to overcome the problem of difficult intubation. Anesthesiologist should be familiar and master in handling these instrument. Our study was randomized prospectively consisting of 300 patients randomly allotted into 6 groups with 50 in each group. Combination of either Truview laryngoscope or McCoy blade with malleablestylet, straight stylet and directable stylet done. Parameter studied was duration of laryngoscopy and intubation, number of attempt for successful intubation, Cormack-Lehane grading improvement either by elevation of tip of McCoy blade or after cricoid pressure in Truview laryngoscope. Complications like trauma to any oropharyngeal structurenoted. In this prospective randomized clinical study, we observed that the duration of intubation was prolonged in the Truview group as compared to the McCoy group but the laryngoscopic optimal view which was determined by Cormack-Lehane grading was better with the Truview group. Amongst the stylet the directable stylet reduced the duration of intubation in both the McCoy and the Truview group as compared to malleable and straight stylet. The number of patients who were intubated in the 1 st attempt were more in the McCoy group as compared to the Truview group. Also there was no statistically significant difference between the rates of complications amongst the groups. Keyword: Truview, McCoy, Direcable stylet, Malleable stylet, straight stylet.
