Clinical Trial Summary

The simple head extension is recommended for optimization of glottic visualization during Nasotracheal intubation via fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB) . However, no study confirmed its superiority over"snifing position" and "Neutral Position". In a prospective, randomized study, the authors compared the snifing position , simple head extension and "Neutral Position" in Nasotracheal intubation via fiberoptic bronchoscope.


Clinical Trial Description

The study included ninety patients with anticipated difficult airways. The snifing position was obtained by placement of a 7-cm cushion under the head of the patient; the extension head position was obtained by placement of a 7-cm cushion under the shoulder; the neutral position with the occiput close to the operating table. The head position was randomized as follows: neutral position group (NP group), sniffing position group (SP group) or extension position group (EP group). Randomization (1:1:1) was based on the codes generated by Excel software, which were kept in sequentially numbered opaque envelopes until the began of study. ;
