Modified pistol grip Pocket bougie and GlideScope

the idea is to use the ETT as a channel or runway to guide the PB anterior like a channeled blade on a King Vision or AirTraq – Fayaz Gulamani (Bomimed, makers of Pocket Bougie)

ETI with King LT in failed Airway scenario

Folks, they said it could not be done. Then Dr Yen Chow showed them it could be. And now JD Ggraziano and his paramedic buddies show you too..it can be done. And for those wondering..thats a MAC4 bladed laryngoscope JD is wielding in the video

What’s that? Endotracheal intubation with a great big Supraglottic airway in situ.

Thank these folks here!
