ABSTRACT
Universal use of Storz C-MAC® videolaryngoscopes was implemented for adult tracheal intubations in the operating theatres, intensive care unit and emergency department at Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust in 2017. We report data from 1099 intubations from March 2020 to March 2022, collected contemporaneously and anonymously using a smartphone app, representing an estimated 18% of intubations in operating theatres and 30% of intubations in other locations during this period. Intubation success was 100%. The first-pass success rate was 87.3% overall 87% with a Macintosh videolaryngoscope, 92% with a hyperangulated videolaryngoscope and 81% for users with ≤ 20 previous uses. First-pass success without complications was 87% overall 87% in operating theatres (836/962), 93% in the emergency department (38/41) and 83% in the intensive care unit (73/88). Complications occurred during 0.6% of intubations 0/962 in operating theatres and 7/137 in non-theatre locations. The rate of complications was unaltered by blade type (Macintosh 5/994 vs. hyperangulated 2/105, p = 0.14); intubator experience with the device (≤ 20 previous clinical uses 2/260 vs. > 20 previous uses 5/832, p = 0.67) and use of airborne personal protective equipment (PPE 6/683 vs. no-PPE 1/410, p = 0.27). Complication rates increased outside theatres (theatres 0/963 vs. non-theatre 7/136, p < 0.001) and during rapid sequence induction (RSI 6/379 (1.6%) vs. non-RSI 1/720 (0.1%), p = 0.008).
