Shikani Optical Stylet for Nasotracheal Intubation Undergoing Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, a Prospective Evaluation
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Nasotracheal Intubation through seeing optical stylet (SOS) for Intubation; Difficult. Completed, enrolled 55 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Difficult airways is still a challenging issue for the anesthesiologists in spite of the development of various techniques.Shikani optical stylet(SOS), combining the features of fiberoptic bronchoscope and a lightwand, has been used for orotracheal intubation with difficult airways. As compared with fiberoptic bronchoscope, SOS is less expensive, easy to learn and more durable. However, it remains elusive whether SOS can be used in the nasotracheal intubation in the oral and maxillofacial surgery, which normally requires the nasotracheal intubation. The present study evaluates the safety and efficacy of SOS for nasotracheal intubation in the oral and maxillofacial surgery requiring nasotracheal intubation.
