We want to study if delivery of oxygen (breathing)gas in high flow rate via the mouth is better as compared to delivery via the nose while we attempt to put a breathing tube in the windpipe of children with restricted mouth opening undergoing surgery.

Comparison of transoral versus transnasal humidified rapidâ??insufflation ventilatory exchange for intubating conditions in children with difficult airway: A prospective, randomized, controlled trial. - NIL
