Summary

This study tested whether a video-guided laryngoscope (McGrath Mac) helps doctors insert breathing tubes more successfully on the first try compared to the standard Macintosh laryngoscope in intensive care patients. 371 adults who needed a breathing tube took part. The goal was to see which tool leads to fewer failed attempts and faster placement.
