Patients were randomly allocated to two groups. We assessed ease of intubation depending on time to tracheal intubation, number of attempts, glottic view (Cormack\u2013Lehane grade [CL grade] and percentage of glottis opening [POGO]) and intubation difficulty score (IDS), hemodynamic variables and any intra- and post-operative adverse events.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The rate of successful endotracheal intubation (ETI) in both groups was 100% in the first attempt.

There was significant improvement in glottic view with GlideScope (as assessed by POGO score 66.71 \u00b1 29.929 and 94.40 \u00b1 10.476 in group G and 75.85 \u00b1 26.969 and 74.20 \u00b1 29.514 Group M and CL grading [\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001]). A comparison of mean IDS between two groups revealed intubation was easier with the use of GlideScope. The hemodynamic response to intubation was significantly lesser with the use of GlideScope when compared with Macintosh laryngoscope. The incidence of adverse events, though minor like superficial lip or tongue bleed, was similar in two groups.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>GlideScope offers superiority over Macintosh laryngoscope in terms of laryngeal views and the difficulty encountered at ETI in an unselected population.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/sja.sja_543_17","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,8]],"date-time":"2018-03-08T23:57:08Z","timestamp":1520553428000},"page":"272-278","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["A prospective randomized controlled study to evaluate and compare GlideScope with Macintosh laryngoscope for ease of endotracheal intubation in adult patients undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Anudeep","family":"Jafra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Satinder","family":"Gombar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, Government Medical College and Hospital, Chandigarh, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dheeraj","family":"Kapoor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, Government Medical College and Hospital, Chandigarh, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Harpreet Singh","family":"Sandhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesia, Healing Touch Hospital, Ambala, Haryana, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kamlesh","family":"Kumari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anesthesia and Intensive Care, Dr. S.
