Airway management " "is the primary and unique responsibility of the anaesthesiologist. Delay or difficulty during " "laryngoscopy and intubation may increase patient morbidity and mortality, apart from causing " "significant desaturation, dental injuries, or airway trauma. Direct laryngoscopy — envisioned " "by McIntosh and Miller — has been accepted as the standard of care for over 60 years. Video " "laryngoscopes (VLs) have been introduced as important additions to the anaesthesiologist's " "armamentarium for securing the airway in anaesthetised patients.", "The fundamental advantage of a videolaryngoscope is that the oral, pharyngeal, and laryngeal " "axes need not align with the line of vision to achieve adequate glottic visualisation. The " "McGrath Mac video laryngoscope (Aircraft Medical, Edinburgh, UK), introduced in January 2006, " "resembles the Macintosh laryngoscope in design, with the addition of a CMOS chip camera " "replacing the light bulb and a camera screen connected to the handle. It offers the familiarity " "of direct laryngoscopy combined with the visualisation advantage of a video laryngoscope, " "providing a paradigm shift in laryngeal view from the hypopharynx.", "Airway management during maxillofacial surgeries poses a unique challenge: decreased mouth " "opening, sharing of the airway with the surgeon, the need for post-fixation occlusion " "assessment, and the inability of routine airway-assessment parameters (such as the Mallampati " "score) to adequately predict difficulty. Unless contraindicated, maxillofacial surgeries are " "performed with nasotracheal intubation (NTI). Patients with panfacial fractures — involving " "the lower, middle, and upper face simultaneously — have significantly reduced mouth opening due " "to muscle spasm and oedema at the fracture site, making both laryngoscopy and tube passage " "more challenging. These patients are known to pose the problem of difficult airway to anaesthetists.", "Panfacial fractures are defined as fractures involving all three facial units. René Le Fort's " "seminal 1901 paper described three basic fracture patterns (Le Fort I, II, III), which remain " "the basis of classification today. Orotracheal intubation interferes with maxillomandibular " "fixation; nasotracheal intubation is contraindicated when nasal bone or skull base fractures " "are present. In appropriately selected patients, NTI is the route of choice. The combination " "of difficult airway anatomy and the specific access requirements of maxillofacial surgery makes " "optimisation of the intubation technique of paramount importance to patient safety.", "There are numerous studies evaluating videolaryngoscopes for routine orotracheal intubations, " "but comparatively fewer studies examine their role specifically in nasotracheal intubation in " "facial fracture patients. In particular, very few studies have examined the utility of the " "McGrath Mac video laryngoscope for NTI in contrast to direct laryngoscopy using the McIntosh " "laryngoscope in panfacial fracture patients.

Airway " "management is the primary and unique responsibility of the anaesthesiologist. Delay or " "difficulty during laryngoscopy and intubation may increase patient morbidity and mortality " "apart from causing significant desaturation, dental, or airway injuries. Direct laryngoscopy " "as envisioned by McIntosh and Miller has been accepted as the standard of care for more than " "60 years. Video laryngoscopes have been a new addition to the anaesthesiologist's armamentarium " "to secure the airway in anaesthetised patients.", "The basic advantage that a videolaryngoscope offers is that the oral, pharyngeal, and laryngeal " "axes need not align with the line of vision to achieve glottic visualisation for endotracheal " "intubation — providing, as it were, 'a look around the corner.' The McGrath Mac video " "laryngoscope (Aircraft Medical, Edinburgh, UK) was introduced in January 2006. Its design " "resembles that of a Macintosh laryngoscope, with the addition of a CMOS chip camera in place " "of the light bulb and a camera screen connected to the handle. It offers the familiarity of " "a direct laryngoscope with the visualisation advantage of a videolaryngoscope.", "The uteroplacental equivalent in intubation — the laryngotracheal axis and airway interface " "— normally keeps the tube path stable during routine laryngoscopy in normal circumstances. " "Almost any source of difficult-airway anatomy that causes a significant mismatch in the " "three-axis alignment has the potential to make endotracheal intubation hazardous. The extent " "and duration of laryngoscopy, the degree of mouth opening, the timing in terms of degree of " "soft tissue swelling, the nutritional and physiological status of the patient, comorbidities, " "medications, and a variety of other factors determine the consequences of difficult laryngoscopy.", "Increased difficulty in laryngoscopy leads to increased oxygen consumption during apnoea, as " "well as a lower threshold for hypoxia-induced end-organ injury. In panfacial fracture patients, " "fracture-associated oedema and muscle spasm make direct laryngoscopy consistently more " "difficult; prolonged intubation attempts are associated with haemodynamic instability, " "dental/airway trauma, and hypoxia. Because of difficult laryngoscopy in panfacial fractures, " "various optimisation manoeuvres such as optimal external laryngeal manipulation (OELM) and " "Magill's forceps become necessary in direct laryngoscopy, extending procedure time.", "During nasotracheal intubation with the McIntosh laryngoscope, neck extension is required " "for glottic visualisation while relative flexion is needed for tube passage — creating a " "geometric conflict. Magill's forceps is then used to guide the tube tip into the anteriorly " "placed larynx.
