Key Words Emergency intubation; Video laryngoscope; Intubating laryngeal mask airway; Critically ill; Airway management
Core Tip This randomized controlled trial demonstrated video laryngoscope (VL) outperformed intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA) for emergency intubation in patients who were critically ill, showing significantly higher first-attempt success (87.5% vs 53.1%), faster intubation (44.0 ± 19.7 seconds vs 82.5 ± 14.5 seconds), and fewer complications. The superior visualization of VL and reduced need for adjunctive maneuvers make it the preferred first-line device for emergency airway management while ILMA remains a valuable backup option. These findings support updating critical care protocols to prioritize VL use, particularly in time-sensitive scenarios where rapid, successful intubation is crucial for patient outcomes.
