Clinical Trial Summary

McGrath videolaryngoscopy avoids the use of Magill forceps for nasotracheal intubation, thereby reducing intubation time and complications, especially in patients with a difficult airway. This study was performed to investigate whether McGrath videolaryngoscopy is superior to Macintosh laryngoscopy for routine nasotracheal intubation in expected normal airways, as judged by the time to intubation and ease of intubation.

Intervention

Device:
• McGrath videolaryngoscopy
After the softened nasotracheal tube was inserted into the nares until its tip passed through the posterior nares, McGrath videolaryngoscope was introduced into the mouth and the nasotracheal tube was advanced.
• Macintosh laryngoscopy
After the softened nasotracheal tube was inserted into the nares until its tip passed through the posterior nares, Macintosh laryngoscope was introduced into the mouth and the nasotracheal tube was advanced.
