90% of adult patients can be intubated with a 3 Mac or 2 Miller.

I know a couple of anesthestists who use that technique. It seems to work for them. The main thing to remember with airways is that just because it works for someone else or in a particular case previously, it does not mean it will work this time for you. Always have a backup.
Here is a completely different approach for you. Throw away everything except the Number 4 blade. Believe it or not, you can use this from newborn to adult.
You mean the snow shovel? I found few patients that had a big enough mouth to be effective the year or so I had one available.
I know one guy who tubes EVERYBODY with a Miller 2. :unsure:
