Endotracheal Intubation, Video Rigid Stylet
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aimed to compare assisted intubation using the ProVu video stylet device passing through Fekry airway versus intubation without the use of Fekry airway . The investigators hypothesized that endotracheal intubation assisted by ProVu video stylet using the Fekry airway as a conduit for intubation would improve the glottic visualization and the higher first attempt success rate when compared to endotracheal intubation assisted by ProVu video stylet without using the Fekry airway.
Interventions
Group C (n=55): Intubation using the ProVu video stylet without the Fekry Airway.
Group F (n =55): endotracheal Intubation assisted by the ProVu video stylet and using Fekry Airway
