The objective of this study was to delineate factors that contribute to provider decision regarding the method of orotracheal intubation and compare the frequency of use for each method. An anonymous online survey was distributed to all providers in a single HEMS program.The survey results were deidentified and blinded to the researchers. The survey was sent to 40 HEMS providers; 29 responded, and 119 total intubations were reported.Method familiarity and patient condition were the most commonly cited reasons for choosing both DL and VL for intubation.DL accounted for 15 intubation attempts, whereas 104 attempts were completed by VL. For both laryngoscopy techniques, the top reasons cited for selecting an intubation technique were being comfortable with that technique and patient presentation. Further investigation with chart review would help confirm the reported data.
