  • Title: A new fiberoptic guide for endotracheal intubation.
    Author: Preis O.
    Journal: Am J Dis Child; 1984 Sep; 138(9):861-2. PubMed ID: 6475875.
    Abstract:
    An improved method for placement of endotracheal tubes was investigated. A fiberoptic guide is used that transilluminates from within the tube's lumen, permitting one to relate the tube's position to skeletal landmarks. The procedure is safe and was 100% successful in 20 infants in whom the instrument was tried.
