Randomized Controlled Trial
Impact of choice of nostril on nasotracheal intubation when using video rigid stylet: a randomized clinical trial.
Patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgeries under general anesthesia usually require nasotracheal intubation. When presented with patients with equally patent nostrils, selection of the nostril to use for intubation is an important decision for facilitating intubation. The objective of this trial is to determine whether choice of nostril impacts nasotracheal intubation when using a video rigid stylet in patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery. ⋯ When considering which nostril to use for intubation with video rigid stylet, either nostril can be used similarly.
