Conditions

Tracheal Intubation

Interventions

Neutral (N) group:The patient is in a supine position, and the anesthesiologist uses the method of supporting the lower jaw with both hands to open the airway.
Sniffing (S) group:The patient takes the "sniffing position", and the anesthesiologist uses the method of holding the chin with both hands to open the airway.
Pillow (P) group:Place a "intubation pillow" on the patients neck, and the anesthesiologist uses the method of supporting the lower jaw with both hands to open the airway.
