Weale NK et al. - The Glidescope can improve laryngeal view in adults but not necessarily the time taken to intubation. A new paediatric Glidescope (GVL) became available in October 2008. Instead of the previous reusable version, GVL small (weight range 1.5–20 kg) there are now two new disposable blades, GVL 1and GVL 2 for use with the ultraportable Cobalt videobaton1–2. Disposable equipment is preferable as it reduces the risk of infection transmission.The Glidescope performs as well as conventional laryngoscopy for intubation of the BabySIM manikin in both the normal and simulated difficult airway setting.
