Journal of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology , 09/25/09
Nishikawa K et al. – The PENTAX–AWS, a novel video laryngoscope, allows indirect visualization of the vocal cords on a color monitor display and enables tracheal intubation without upward lifting force required to expose the glottis. The AWS offers a reduced degree of hemodynamic stimulation compared with the Macintosh laryngoscope, suggesting that tracheal intubation with the AWS is advantageous to prevent hypertension after laryngoscopy in neurosurgical patients.
