About

This study aims to compare using bougie as an assistant for endotracheal intubation through Air-Q and Fastrach intubating laryngeal mask devices when blind intubation fails as attempt to increase its success rate.

Full description

The investigators hypothesis that using bougie with its smaller caliber or lesser size can facilitate intubation and improve success rate when blind intubation through both devices fails.

Study objectives

To make a comparison between Air-Q intubating laryngeal mask and Fastrach intubating laryngeal mask by using bougie assisted endotracheal intubation through both devices in patients undergoing elective surgeries in Suez Canal Hospitals.
To assess the first trial success rate, the total success rate, time to tracheal intubation, the number of attempts, hemodynamics and adverse events.
