متن کاملEfficacy of atomised local anaesthetic versus transtracheal topical anaesthesia for awake fibreoptic intubation
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Successful awake fibreoptic intubation (AFOI) depends on adequate topical anaesthesia of the airway. We aimed to compare efficacy of atomised local anaesthetic versus transtracheal topical anaesthesia for AFOI. METHODS It was a prospective, randomised controlled study of 33 patients with the American Society of Anesthesiologists' physical status 1-3 with anticipated diffic...
