Four hundred and one patients who were scheduled for elective operation, were randomly assigned to be intubated by direct laryngoscopy using a Macintosh blade size 3rd (DL, n=196) or intubation using the video laryngoscope (VL, n=205). Prior to intubation all patients were given a similar regimen of induction of anesthesia. The patients were then intubated, using direct laryngoscopy or the VL, by a different anesthetist during which the larynx was inspected and given a laryngoscopy score.
