Airway Scope and Macintosh Laryngoscope for Tracheal Intubation in Patients Lying on the Ground

Hypertension, Pure Autonomic Failure
Local Heat Stress in Autonomic Failure Patients With Supine Hypertension
Patients with autonomic failure are characterized by disabling orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure on standing), and at least half of them also have high blood pressure while lying down (supine hypertension).

Elective Surgical Patients
Comparison of Glottic Views and Intubation Times in the Supine and 25 Degree Back-up Positions
Our hypothesis is that the view of the glottis may be improved by putting all patients requiring intubation in the ramped or back up position while maintaining the classic sniffing position.
