Figure 2 (Right). Schematic representation of the angle of approach. The top image shows ideal placement of a hyperangulated blade—in this case, a GlideScope Titanium blade—compared to overinsertion (bottom image). Note that the approach angle is more acute and that there is less room for tube delivery between the blade and the larynx.
