    Notes: We evaluated the modified Airway Management Device (AMDTM) in 60 spontaneously breathing anaesthetised patients. The insertion and removal of the device was very easy and atraumatic. The airway was secured on the first attempt in 41 patients (70%; 95% CI 57–80%). The most important problem was loss of airway, which occurred in 11 patients (19%; 11–30%) during maintenance of anaesthesia. The AMD was dislodged during maintenance in one patient. There was a loss of the airway in 12 patients (20%; 12–31%); in 10, it was maintained with simple airway manoeuvres or a laryngeal mask airway and tracheal intubation was required in two patients. Ten of these patients were male and two were female; the failure rate was 33% (12–31%) among the male patients and 6% (2–22%) among the female patients. The cuff volumes ranged from 4 ml to 80 ml and cuff pressures from 6 cm H2O to 92 cm H2O. Blood was seen on removal in three patients (6%; 2–16%) and nine patients (18%; 10–30%) experienced sore throat after removal of the device.

    Notes: We compared two manoeuvres, jaw thrust and laryngoscopy, to open the airway during fibreoptic intubation in 50 patients after induction of anaesthesia in a crossover study. Patients were randomly allocated to receive either jaw thrust or conventional Macintosh laryngoscopy first. Airway clearance was assessed at both the soft palate and the epiglottis. Direct laryngoscopy provided significantly better airway clearance at the level of the soft palate than jaw thrust (44 (88%) vs 31 (62%), respectively; p = 0.002). At the level of the larynx, airway clearance was equally good in both groups (45 (90%) vs 46 (92%), respectively; p = 0.56). The times to view the larynx (median (interquartile range [range]) 4 (3–5 [2–35]) s vs 3 (3–4 [2–8]) s, respectively) and intubation time (20 (17–23 [11–83]) s vs 18 (15–20 [11–28]) s, respectively) were also similar.
