#CCR23 : In the DEVICE trial, the use of video laryngoscopy in critically ill patients undergoing intubation in the ED or ICU resulted in a higher incidence of successful intubation on the first attempt than direct laryngoscopy.

@BJAJournals Brain's introduction of the LMA was initially met with scepticism, and he struggled to find backers at first. Though its potential was evident, few could predict the monumental shift it would bring in airway management practices 1/4 #bjachat

@glauncel @Assoc_Anaes @Fionafionakel Sadly life is more complex -not all locations have capnography (eg wards, LMIC settings) -not all oesophageal intubation leads to a clear flat or even ever flat capnograph IMO each case merits careful, objective, humble review. As I read more cases the simplicity reduces.
