Abstract
The patient in whom laryngoscopy is difficult, calls for the placement of the patient's head in the optimum (Boyce) position prior to insertion of the laryngoscope. A new suspension gallows has been developed which provides for suspension of the laryngoscope with the patient in the Boyce position; this ensemble maintains stability of the laryngoscope, minimizes pressure on the maxilla and gives the best possible view of the anterior commissure.Keywords
