Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	time to intubation	Time to intubation (from optiscope insertion to the detection of end tidal CO2) will be recorded. If time to inubation is longer than 180 s or pulse oxymetry is lower than 94%, mask ventilation will be performed. If intubation is not successful within 3 trials, it will be performed using direct laryngoscope.	intubation period	No
