PY - 2017 T2 - Hung's Difficult and Failed Airway Management, 3e AB - In this day and age with video-laryngoscopy (VL) rapidly becoming the standard of care for orotracheal intubation (OTI) one might rightly ask if there is still a need for a chapter on direct laryngoscopy (DL). However, while VL is gaining ground on DL it has yet to replace it as the most common device employed to facilitate OTI, and it will remain a vitally important skill to master for difficult and failed intubation rescue, and in parts of the world that cannot afford or do not have access to VL.
