VL vs. Augmented DL with Special Guest: Dr. George Kovacs. We’re starting a new format with this episode. We kick things off with a review of a paper: Brown CA, et al. Video Laryngoscopy Compared to Augmented Direct Laryngoscopy in Adult Emergency Department Tracheal Intubations: A National Emergency Airway Registry (NEAR) Study. Acad Emerg Med. 2020; 27: 100-108. After discussing the paper, we have a fantastic interview with Dr. George Kovacs (@kovacsgj) to discuss the differences between types of VL devices. He drops some great pearls on some tips for intubation success. Then Mike joins us for a discussion of the paper and interview. We hope you like the new format. Please drop us a line and let us know what you think! As always, please subscribe and give us a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts. We’d love to hear your thoughts, questions, and suggestions.
